Although Zhao Chen guessed that his father would speak out to protect the Marquis of Yongping, there should always be a limit to everything, even if it is for the ability of the Marquis of Yongping to hold the silver, it will not come to such a point.

The confession that Hu Zhifu just confessed is in the file. The Marquis of Yongping coveted the wealth of the Chen family, sought money and killed him, and the confession was clear, and the authenticity of it was known by checking the authenticity.

Even if he could not act arbitrarily, it would be time for him to be taken into custody pending verification.

The Chen family's industries are all over the southwest, and Yongping Hou almost hollowed out these industries after the Chen family was destroyed. More than 10 million taels of silver, the treasury income for half a year, this alone is enough to put him in prison.

Zhao Chen frowned and said, "Father, this matter is already ironclad evidence, if you protect the Marquis of Yongping, not only will the county lord of Zhaoping refuse to accept it, but I am afraid that even the Seven Emperor Uncle and the Duke of Dingguo will not be able to explain it!"

Emperor Qingming raised his eyes to look at him, "How to close the case beautifully and convincingly, it depends on your ability."

Zhao Chen closed his eyes.

Even these words are spoken!

Although not everything has the truth, there are a bunch of confused things in the world, but Father, how can he tolerate the Marquis of Yongping!

Zhao Chen looked at his father who was calmly drinking tea, and suddenly realized that the ending of this matter was doomed from the beginning.

Marquis Yongping, maybe he got things done to the emperor's heart.

So no matter how much evidence he comes up with, things will eventually go that way.

Like in his previous life, the Marquis of Yongping will go to the end safely, controlling most of the court, and even swaying his father's choice.

He couldn't help but feel a pang of horror.

There have always been rabbits and dead dogs, but the emperors often target generals who have military power to threaten the country.

The Chen family is just a businessman, and they donate food and silver to the Great Zhou every year, and they are not immune to any threat.

When he left the imperial study, it was already the second watch.

The moon is like a knife, and the stars are like the sea.

The cold air of the night was already deep into his bones, Zhao Chen gathered his big air and strode away.

Yongping Hou walked out of the side hall and followed Zhao Chen with a smile.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how are you going?"

Zhao Chen's face was gloomy, "Yongping Hou, Lone still underestimates you."

The Marquis of Yongping smiled with his big sleeves in his cage, "That Hu prefect's thief shouted to catch the thief and climbed indiscriminately, it was the emperor who distinguished right from wrong and returned the innocence of the lower officials."

The emperor's intention, Hu Wende, as the governor of a government, had a gap with the Chen family that his marriage was rejected, and it is not known whether he killed people to vent his anger.

The Chen family extinguished their mouths and died as a prefect, which is enough to explain.

Zhao Chen sneered, "More than 10 million taels of silver, is it Yongping Hou's life money?"

Yongping Hou looked up at the Mo Blue Sky Dome and said quietly, "Pigs are fattened, and they always have to be killed. Your Highness, as the Prince, should understand this truth."

"Then Yongping Hou should take good care of himself and don't raise himself too fat."

Zhao Chen Huoran shook off the big flicker, left the Marquis of Yongping, and left the palace.

Yongping Hou smiled, "There won't be that day, Your Highness the Prince."

As soon as it was dawn, Han Youning woke up.

It's already October, it's a little cold outside, although the charcoal basin is burned, but it still makes people not have the courage to get out of the bed.

She wrapped the quilt tighter, revealing only half of her little red face, and sighed, "What did you do when you opened the curtain, and the heat dissipated."

Ling'er is very happy, and now the young lady has gradually regained some of her previous squeamishness, and is no longer dull.

She rolled up the curtain and said with a smile, "Miss, this is what you said, covering the spring and autumn frost, and not letting the charcoal basin be too full. Who is it that is cowering and not being able to get out of the bed now?"

Spring covers autumn frost, which was taught to her by her grandmother. So when she grows so big, she is also strong and rarely gets sick, which shows that this is reasonable.

She was just happy and wanted to tire herself out for a while.

"If you don't have much to do when you get out of the bed, it's better to stay in the bed."

"Miss, you forgot, Yueniang moved today, and you promised to send her."

Ling'er turned around and took a jacket from the shelf on the smoker, walked to the bed, and stuffed it into the bed.

"This jacket is thick, it was sewn by Yueniang overnight, you can try it."

The satin jacket in his arms was soft and warm, and Han Youning sat up and hurriedly put on his clothes.

"I forgot about it! What about Yu Niang, it's not like I don't have a jacket to wear, why does she have to stay up late?"

While helping her get dressed, Ling'er said, "She cleaned up in the room, but the slave and maid looked at her, and she only had a few clothes left and right, and there was nothing to clean up."

Han Youning hurriedly freshened up and went to the wing.

Yu Niang was originally sitting on the kang, but when she saw her come in, she began to fold her clothes again.

"What are you doing here, hurry up and eat, I have a lot of things to do here!"

Han Youning saw the tears in the corners of Yu Niang's eyes.

"Then hurry up!"

She turned and walked away.

After breakfast, they walked out of Jinhetang.

Before he got out of the hanging flower gate, he met Mrs. Han and Han Qingwan, with elegant dresses and makeup, followed by a few maids, with a posture of going out.

Han Qingwan smiled, "The county lord looks in a good mood."

Han Youning looked at her and found that her eyebrows were stretched and her face was ruddy, as if she was in a better mood than her.

"The eldest cousin looks in a good mood."

Han Qingwan smiled, "That's nature. Today is my grandfather's birthday, a good day, and there is no reason to be unhappy. Someone came early in the morning, so let's go early."

Yongping Hou's birthday?

Even if he is not in prison, he should be running around to save his life!

How could he have the heart to hold a birthday party?

Han Youning looked at Old Madam Han again, and her expression was also calm, and she didn't panic at all.

Their sisters and brothers depend on each other, and there are many discussions about everything, if something happens to the Marquis of Yongping, Mrs. Han is afraid that it will be difficult to be so calm at this time.

She said, "Then speak for me. I wish him a hundred years of life."

Han Qingwan smiled softly and did not hide her smugness, "I'll bring it." Naturally, my grandfather will live a long life, and the Yongping Marquis Mansion will always be rich."

Out of the Weeping Flower Gate, after Old Madam Han and the others left, Han Youning instructed Duan Yi, "You go and inquire about the progress of the Chen family's case."

Duan Yi should be.

Ye Chang felt that the heroine's habit of not relying on people for everything was not very good, and the prince was here, do you need to inquire yourself?

He grabbed Duan Yi, "Why should the county lord bother himself, if he sends someone back to the Jin Palace, he will know everything."

"It's fine." Han Youning said.

She was in a hurry, forgetting that there was still Zhao Chengyuan.

The small house in Le'an Fang was lively.

The furniture bought is ready-made, and each shop has sent pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt, and cloth and cotton.

Yu Niang cleaned up the layout of the second entrance and the same as the small cross-courtyard of Jinhetang, and really planned to let her come to live from time to time.

Han Youning was not in his mind, and sat in the study in a daze.

She had a bad premonition that Yongping Hou was safe and sound.
