On the second day after Concubine Shu was deposed, the Qianyuan Palace was shelved for many days, and the troublesome Jiang Pei corruption case finally came to an end.

Emperor Cheng's disposition of Jiang Pei continued the sentence of the Criminal Department, raiding the house and beheading, the male in the family was sentenced to be beheaded when he was over 15 years old, and the female dependents and men under the age of 15 were used as official slaves, and the relevant officials involved in the case were investigated and dealt with according to law.

Due to the large number of people who colluded with Jiang Pei, the edict prison in Dali Temple was overcrowded, and the wails of corrupt officials could be heard every day.

In the early dynasty of February 27, Emperor Cheng angrily reprimanded Jiang Song in public for not being strict with his sons, arsonizing with slaves, acting recklessly, flouting the law, and scolding Jiang Song to the blood.

At that time, above the court, except for the imperial historians of the Inspectorate who were happy to see it, the rest of the courtiers were all afraid to speak. Everyone knows where Emperor Cheng's anger came from, and Concubine Shu was sent to the cold palace for poisoning Princess Zhaoyang.

Jiang Song's two children both had accidents, didn't they respond to the sentence that the godson was not strict?

The next day, I heard that Jiang Song wrote a letter to ask for guilt, saying that he was deeply frightened and ashamed after being reprimanded by the emperor, and he did not dare to occupy a high position as a criminal minister, so he asked to think about it at home for half a month.

He also felt obediently, knowing that Emperor Cheng was really angry this time, for fear that the situation would deteriorate further, he simply suspended his post and went home to avoid his edge.

Over the years, the Jiang family has been arrogant and domineering in the court, and it is rare to suffer such a loss, but the Inspectorate is not satisfied with this result, although Jiang Pei has been sentenced to death, but it really caused them to go to the table, Jiang Song, who represents the center of the contradiction between Xungui and Qingliu, is perfectly invisible and unharmed.

They won this battle but did not win completely, everyone knew that once the half-moon period passed, Jiang Song would still be the mighty Jiang Shangshu, and there would be no change in the slightest.

Wei Yu only listened to these situations outside the palace, her and her rites were coming, and the date was chosen on March 3, and everything in the palace that had anything to do with the "rites" was extremely cumbersome, as a much-loved princess, her rites were naturally not sloppy.

But the concubine who was originally in charge of palace affairs was grounded due to crime, Emperor Cheng's harem concubines were empty, and there were few high-ranking concubines, so she had to temporarily call out the long-term sick concubine to handle the matter, and the palace and the palace were so busy that their feet did not touch the ground.

And as the main person in this matter, Wei Yu has been very busy recently.

First of all, because the ceremony is approaching, she has to go to Cining Palace Middle School every day to listen to the training, waiting for the Queen Mother to teach tea, so as not to make jokes at the ceremony. Although Wei Yu had gone through a previous life, he still had a headache when he heard it.

The second is the matter of the Sixteen Alliances in the Northwest, in her previous life, she knew very little about the details, and could only try her best to analyze and recall from some other news, even so it still had little effect, and the details had to wait for the DPRK and China to start to investigate the situation in the northwest before they could deal with it, but seeing the day of sending troops approaching, it was really anxious.

The third is the matter between the Queen Mother and Xiang Siyuan, since the Queen Mother mentioned the private meeting between Wei Yu and Xiang Siyuan that day, Wei Yu racked her brains and did not find an excuse to prevaricate in the past.

What a shrewd person is the Queen Mother? knew that there must be something strange in it, and she didn't force it too hard, but she was ordered to put the matter of bringing Xiang Siyuan into the palace on the agenda as soon as possible, otherwise the fresh and hot official position that Xiang Siyuan had just started would be gone.

Since he had already shown his feet to the Queen Mother, Wei Yu didn't dare to quietly let Xiang Siyuan enter the palace to discuss, and he didn't know how to mention this matter to Xiang Siyuan, so he could only let people look for him by going out of the palace to check the name of the princess's mansion.

Before, she and Xiang Siyuan had been in trouble because of rumors, but now the rumors have just been resolved, and they are about to be confirmed by the Queen Mother, which really overwhelms her, and she doesn't know how Xiang Siyuan will feel.

As soon as she thought of the scene of meeting him, she felt a deep headache, and she was so embarrassed that she just wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.

The carriage drove through the bluestone floor, stirring up a crisp and rapid copper bell in the corner, the five-colored luan bird embroidered with gold inlaid treasures on the gold silk woven satin, and the rut was made of fine yellow pear, and the carriage drove through a flat downtown road, made a turn and stopped, only to hear the coachman outside softly calling: "Your Highness, it's here." ”

The voice was sharp and sharp, like a man and a woman, and it was actually a eunuch.

Because he just looked at the house and wanted to see Xiang Siyuan in private, Wei Yu specially ordered Jian to follow the light car before going out, and he didn't put on any pomp, not even the guards.

She lifted the curtain, handed her hand to the dawn that was waiting outside, stepped out of the carriage on the long red stool, and walked slowly to the delicate gate painted with gold and jade.

She looked up at the gilded red plaque hanging in the middle, and a few big characters "Princess Zhaoyang Mansion" were written on it with dragons and phoenixes.

For a while, what courtesy, war, and Xiang Siyuan all took a back seat for a while, leaving only indescribable complex feelings.

After a long time, she finally saw this princess's mansion again, in her previous life, she suddenly encountered chaos in this mansion, and she tried her best in this mansion, the name of Zhaoyang Princess's Mansion was firmly tied to her, it was her wealth, and it was also her shackles.

The palace man pushed open the door with a smile, followed by two small inner eunuchs with round faces, and followed her with a smile on their faces to explain the structure and furnishings of the mansion to her.

After all, the matter was urgent, and in order to cope with her moving in after March 3, even though the mansion was rebuilt a lot, the general structure was still the same.

At the entrance, Wei Yu saw a familiar pavilion and pavilion, and the corridor of steps was extraordinary.

The strange grass in the courtyard is rare, the clear pond winding path, it is clear that it is different everywhere, but there are traces of the past life everywhere, Wei Yu raised his hand to stop the explanation of the palace people, and walked slowly through the corridor of the courtyard gate, and walked forward little by little.

The double memories of past and present lives came to her like a tsunami, struggling and screaming as if they were about to gush out of her chest, her throat as if it was being choked by something, and her heart sinking uncomfortably like a piece of lead.

The courtyard was delicate and gorgeous, but it was full of painful breath, wrapped in countless painful memories, and it was surging in her mind.

"Your Highness...... The Yongjun army has already entered the palace, and we are waiting for the order of the queen mother to escort the princess out of Beijing. ”

"Your Highness, Niang Niang and Your Majesty...... He is dead. ”

She held Dawn's hand, trying to steady her breathing, and watched slowly.

Finally came to a certain courtyard, she looked up to look at the other delicate plaque above her head, different from the atmosphere at the gate, this plaque is decorated with ornaments, and the book "Tibetan Jade Pavilion" is written.

Wei Yu squeezed Dawn's hand tightly.

"Your Highness...... What's wrong? Dawn asked, looking at her face inexplicably.

Wei Yu's eyes were fixed on the plaque.

Tibetan Jade Pavilion, the three words of this carved bone inscription......

She clenched her silver teeth, and Gu Jiaqing's tall figure appeared in her mind again, and the severe soreness captured her heart, making it almost difficult for her to stand.

She took a deep breath and tried to convince herself.

It's already gone...... Now she is no longer the princess of the former dynasty who has nothing, and those humiliating memories have not happened and will not happen.

Whether it is King Huai or Gu Jiaqing, in this life, she will never give them the slightest chance.

Wei Yu shook his head and asked Dawn to clean up a place in the side yard where he could sit and rest.

Dawn nodded, this house has five entrances, and you can't finish it in one day, and you can only see it roughly.

She quickly arranged a place to rest, served tea and snacks, and set Wei Yu up.

As soon as Wei Yu sat down, he heard someone come to report: "Your Highness, Xiang Gongzi has arrived." ”

Her face softened slightly, put down the teacup, and said slowly, "Bring it here." ”

Xiang Siyuan followed the footsteps of the palace people and walked forward along the winding corridor.

The whole capital is very curious about this princess's mansion, His Majesty built a mansion for this beloved daughter is extremely luxurious, for which it has been several folds in the imperial history, fortunately, in recent years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the harvest year has been repeated, the treasury is full, and the inspectorate is also complaining.

He was the first outsider to set foot here after the construction of the princess's mansion, and because of his upbringing, he would not look around, but the sight of the road was enough to amaze him.

He was born in the Hou Mansion, and he has been in and out of the palace many times, so he can be regarded as having some vision, but His Majesty really loves this daughter very much, and it seems that he can't wait to collect all the treasures in the world here.

He thought of Princess Zhaoyang's face of the closed moon and shy flowers, and couldn't help but sigh that there are people in this world who are blessed.

Xiang Siyuan's impression of this princess was very complicated, at first he felt that she was willful and arrogant, and there was no one in her eyes, although she may not be as unlearned as rumored, but she was very happy to play with him, which was really annoying.

As for the so-called alliance, he didn't take it to heart, just thinking that maybe he watched some drama on a whim.

The reason why he agreed to deal with her was indeed because it was really difficult to resist the temptation to return to the court, and on the other hand, he wanted to make her happy as soon as possible to get out.

After a few contacts, he found that her style of acting was different from that of ordinary people, and even sometimes she thought far more carefully than him, and he began to face up to what she said.

He didn't know whether to lament that the royal children were born precocious, or whether to lament the good upbringing of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, in short, he had lived for more than 20 years and had never seen such a woman.

He sometimes couldn't help but think that if she was a man, His Majesty would not worry about having no successor, and the court would probably talk much less about the thinness of His Majesty's heirs.

It's just a pity that he's a woman.

He sighed and was taken to a small courtyard with carved beams and painted buildings, with Biwa Zhu Eaves and Feige Liudan, which were extremely gorgeous.

He bypassed the door of the Chongyue Cave, and Princess Zhaoyang was sitting in a small pavilion with rounded corners not far away, bowing her head and sipping tea, Xiang Siyuan guessed that there must be sweet tea again.

This princess seems to be particularly sweet-loving, and has always only drunk sweet tea, and most of the fruit snacks are sweet.

He stepped forward and bowed, and according to the etiquette system, he said respectfully: "See Your Highness." ”

The princess in the pavilion, dressed in a gorgeous costume, pursed her lips as he expected, and said dissatisfiedly: "I told you a long time ago that you don't need to be polite, don't be like an old man, sit down." ”

Xiang Siyuan leaned over slightly, answered the "yes", and sat down.

Wei Yu beckoned someone to serve him tea, and secretly looked at his face, feeling more and more that it was difficult to talk about it.

"You ......"

"Your Highness......"

Two voices sounded at the same time, and Wei Yu smiled awkwardly, "You say it first." ”

Xiang Siyuan nodded, and said with a straight face: "Your Highness, in the matter of the Sixteenth Department in the Northwest, I have already said that a deputy general under the hands of Zhenguo Gong has sent a letter, and it should not be long before there are eyebrows." ”

Zhen Guogong used to be the commander of the Northwest Army, and he was familiar with the Northwest Military Affairs, as long as he could move him, he would be considered a general at this time.

This is of course good news, but Wei Yu still finds it difficult to be happy when he hears it.

Xiang Siyuan saw that she was absent-minded, "Your Highness, but what's the matter?" ”
