After watching Ji Qirui leave, Ji Changye, who was traveling with him, turned back and came to the emperor's study again.

"I knew you would come back." The emperor listened to the sound and said without raising his head. If Ji Changye hadn't reminded him just now, I'm afraid he would have cured Ji Qirui's sin by now.

And thanks to him.

Ji Changye bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has left the palace."

The emperor closed the fold in his hand, walked up to Ji Changye with his hands in his hands, and asked, "Was I too impulsive just now? Or do you also think that the prince can't do this thing, and that I have gone wrong in my investigation?"

"All the evidence is conclusive, and it is the result of His Majesty's personal investigation, and the people below do not dare to commit the crime of defrauding the king, so whether it is true or false Your Majesty should know better than the ministers." Ji Changye did not follow the emperor's words to comfort him, but lured him to be more convinced that his investigation was not wrong.

Otherwise, his efforts for so long will be in vain.

"All the evidence I have heard with my own ears points to the prince. But how could the prince do such things? Although he is really stubborn and unsatisfactory in everything on weekdays, his heart is not bad." The Emperor exhaled and sat in his chair rubbing his aching brows, hard to believe what he had heard and seen.

Ji Changye knew very well that the emperor didn't really think that Ji Qirui couldn't do these things, but he didn't want to believe that the crown prince he set up at the beginning would actually look like this, and he lived up to his expectations.

So Ji Changye spoke, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may have been bewitched by someone, and he will be like this for a while. Why don't we investigate deeply and see if there is someone behind the instigation of His Royal Highness the Prince, and find out the villain in the final analysis, so that we can never suffer in the future, and second, we can also let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince avoid instigation and get on the right path."

How could Ji Qirui be completely provoked? Otherwise, there are many things that are his own decisions, and no one is at all in charge. The reason why Ji Changye said this was also to pretend to be generous in front of the emperor, and to investigate unexpectedly to better grasp Ji Qirui's handle, so that he couldn't turn over at all.

The emperor readily agreed, and sent someone to investigate the matter strictly. And soon investigated several ministers related to Ji Qirui, all of whom were members of the prince's party, and had tried to harm Ji Changye.

Looking at the thick folds, the emperor angrily swept them all off the bookcase, and said angrily, "They didn't take me seriously at all, and actually did these things behind their backs." What is written above is what they have secretly done over the years, although the crime is not to death, but they still have two hearts, and the allegiance is actually Ji Qirui.

Ji Changye listened to his roar and opened his mouth to comfort: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, be careful of hurting your body. They did these things many years ago, and if we investigate them now, it will be difficult to punish them, so ......

"So you're trying to say that even I can't do anything to them, can you?" The emperor suddenly interrupted Ji Changye's words.

As soon as these words came out, Ji Changye fell silent, and it seemed that he acquiesced to the emperor's words.

The emperor wrinkled his brows, and he didn't know what to do for a while, it seemed that he was still too much in love with himself, otherwise he wouldn't have reached the point where he is now, every step is so difficult.

At the same time, the Queen Mother's bedroom.

"A bunch of idiots!"

The roar of the Queen Mother echoed throughout the palace, accompanied by the sound of things falling to the ground, so that all the subordinates did not dare to come out, not to mention the few ministers who are now kneeling in the front hall to confess. Look at the book

They are the ministers who were investigated by the emperor to serve the crown prince.

If the Queen Mother hadn't called them here, I'm afraid they wouldn't have known that what they had done had been discovered by the emperor, and their good days would be coming to an end.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but be angry when she thought of these things being revealed, after all, she had concealed it seamlessly for the crown prince, but she didn't expect that something would go wrong with them, what if she was implicated?

"The mourning family has long told you that these things cannot be acted rashly, you can do it well, and all the words of the mourning family have been ignored, and now something has gone wrong, I think

Do you want this unwarranted calamity to be put on the heads of the mourners?" The Queen Mother threw a stack of folds in the face of the nearby minister, and now she was already angry and couldn't hold anything steadily, and she was very worried about the next situation, thinking about what they were going to do.

One of the ministers had the courage to say, "Empress Dowager Qi, when the ministers did these things, they were all cautious and did not leave any traces, how could they be investigated? Someone must have deliberately slandered them, or someone told them behind their backs, otherwise we wouldn't have exposed them." Besides, they framed Ji Changye and did some things according to Ji Qirui's orders, Ji Qirui promised them to just do what they were told, and they didn't have to worry about the rest of the aftermath, why didn't they do these words now, but let them pay the price?

"Are you embarrassed to open your mouth to the mourners to say these things? If you weren't strict enough, how could you be caught? These things were originally made in you, except for mistakes, and now you still want to open your mouth to defend them, because the mourners are old and confused, and they can't even understand the truth of this idea?" The Queen Mother slapped the table angrily.

If it weren't for the fact that she is now old and unable to do so, she would never have let this kind of thing happen and let them drag her feet.

The others listened to the Queen Mother's words and knew that they were at a loss, and they were also afraid that the Queen Mother was so old, if any of the words were inappropriate, which made her angry and something happened, even if they had a hundred heads, they would not be enough, so they did not dare to move forward.

And the special people are also bitter now, although they do plan how to help Ji Qirui bring down Ji Changye, but they are only planning and have done nothing. As for those that were investigated by the emperor, they were all a long time ago, if it weren't for today, I'm afraid everything would have been completely forgotten, I can't remember it clearly, thank you for trying.

Looking at their cowardly appearance, the Queen Mother knew that she could no longer rely on them now, so she instructed: "Now there is only one way, you can't act rashly, wait and see what your Majesty will do next, if there is still an in-depth investigation, and it is not good for our situation, we will take action." They had no other way but to do it.

These officials had no other choice but to obey the Queen Mother's arrangement, but when they returned home, they were still scared, afraid that their head would move that day.

And the emperor had already noticed their every move, and naturally knew their plan, so he simply planned it, and made them lose their black yarn hats and leave the capital on the grounds that they were not doing well, so as to cut off most of the wing forces that the queen mother had planted in the court, so that the emperor was also relieved a lot.

Ji Changye was so happy, because before it was his turn to do it himself, he had already dealt with a large number of opponents without much effort, so that there would be a lot less threat in the future. But these are far from enough for his ambitions, after all, he can't completely overthrow these big forces for a while, so he can only reap the benefits of the fisherman according to this method.

Soon the sudden departure of so many officials caused turmoil in the court, after all, I dare not imagine why the special men left, and whether the next one would be himself.

Naturally, these news also spread to the mother family of the Queen Mother.

In order to protect themselves, they were afraid that they would have something to do with the Queen Mother, who was now on the cusp of the storm, and would lose their lives, so the officials of all sizes in the family wrote and wrote overnight, asking to resign and return to their hometowns.

The emperor didn't expect that getting rid of the Queen Mother's forces for so many years would be completed so easily, so he was naturally a lot happier, and said to Ji Changye, "See? Now even their own people no longer believe in their own people, they have betrayed their own people, so we just have to wait for them to leave or change their ways." It also made it a lot easier for him to deal with these things without having to deal with them.

And Ji Changye didn't answer the emperor's words, but secretly rejoiced in his heart, thinking that his plan would soon be completed.

At this time, Xiao Xirou suddenly came to the queen mother's bedroom.

And the queen mother, who learned that her mother had left her mother and left here, was very sad at this time, and she was so depressed that she fell ill in bed.

He was a little surprised and a little moved when he saw Xiao Xirou coming, thinking that Xiao Xirou was here to care about himself, so he stood up with his weak body and said, "Queen, it's still you ......" But all this fighting is just his own self-inflicted amorousness, Xiao Xirou's purpose is not to care about how he lives now. Or how depressed she is, she came to care about something else.

I saw Xiao Xirou standing indifferently in front of the Queen Mother's bed, and asked impatiently, "Queen Mother, now that your mother family has become what it is now, is the election of the crown princess by His Royal Highness the crown prince over?" Even if the Queen Mother can still help Princess Ji Qi Ruiyuan, but with the vision and ability of her current forces, what else can she do to win other people's daughters? At that time, not only will it not help Ji Qirui, but it will also be possible to pull Ji Qirui into the water and drag him back, won't everything be over?

Listening to Xiao Xirou's words, the Queen Mother also understood what he meant, and sneered: "Now, you see that the mourning family has no place to use it, and you want to get rid of the relationship with the mourning family, right? But don't forget, you can't escape what you did with the mourners. Who do you think the prince can be kept now? Could it be because of your Xiao family? It's all because there is a mourning family, otherwise how could you be a queen? How can the crown prince become the crown prince?" But now they want to settle down and get rid of their relationship, which makes the Queen Mother very cold, and can't help but regret what they did with them at the beginning, and now everything is her retribution, and the sky really has eyes.

Xiao Xirou saw that her mind was being clarified, and in order to preserve the last dignity, she said, "Queen Mother, what are you talking about? I am your daughter-in-law, and I also know that the crown prince can have today's life because of the support of the queen mother, how can I forget your grace, but since you are for our good and for the good of the crown prince, you should know a little bit, in the current situation, you have no benefit to the prince, and you have not reported what you have done to Your Majesty, and it is already the prince's kindness to remember the old love, how can you still say that about the prince and the palace?"

Listening to Xiao Xirou's words, the Queen Mother pointed at her angrily and couldn't say a word.
