Chapter 128 Petition in the palace
"I went to see the scene there, and I really didn't want these people to fall into the hands of the Li family again, so I bought them with money." Xiao Jingyu looked at Bai Susu, frowning slightly, "What's wrong?"

Bai Susu has never seen that scene before, so she is more calm now. She always feels that there is a fraud in it, but she has not figured out the key to it.

"I just feel that something is wrong. The Shen family would have resisted at the beginning. It is unreasonable for the Li family to cooperate so much now, and I don't see them making any moves." After Bai Susu's understanding over time, the Li family is not what it seems on the surface. goodness.

"We will be more careful in the future." Xiao Jingyu also understood the meaning of Bai Susu's words, and nodded in response.

But things often happened inadvertently. On the second day, Zhou Ximing was called into the palace by the emperor, and he did not return after a long time. The third prince in the middle also entered the palace.

After Bai Susu sold out the dim sum at the dim sum shop, on the way back, she heard some gossip.

"Have you heard that the candies sold by the Xiao family are all secretly made from grain!"

"I heard that the person from the sugar shop sneaked out and filed a complaint against the imperial court this morning. He looks so skinny!"

"The Xiao family is so rampant, is it because of the crown prince's backing?"

The last sentence was deliberately lowered, but Bai Susu who was passing by heard it clearly, and his heart paused for an instant.

problem occurs.

She hurried towards Dongshi, and saw that the sugar shop of Xiao's family in Dongshi had been sealed by the government, and the people around were pointing fingers at it.

The law of the Great Dynasty forbids the use of grain to make sugar. When this incident was exposed, the common people felt angry, and the literati felt ashamed.All of a sudden, the business of all the shops in the Xiao family plummeted.

Bai Susu turned back and saw Xiao Jingyu sitting in the yard of her home, the fan in her hand was quickly fanned by him, showing his anxiety at this time.

"What happened here? Why did someone go to the palace gate to beat the drums and sue Zhou Ximing?" Why did Bai Susu feel that too many things happened during the half day he left.

"Yesterday we bought the courtyard of Li's family. I bought all the people in it in an instant, and planned to let them continue to work in it. Who knew that in the middle of the night, a person slipped out quietly and hit the city wall. The sound of grievances."

"I'm afraid, someone secretly instigated this." Bai Susu sat beside him, "Then what's going on with the people in the capital talking about using grain to make sugar?"

"That yard was originally the place where the Li family used grain to make sugar privately, but I just bought it yesterday, and I haven't had time to deal with it yet."

"So, this became the evidence for the one who escaped to sue the court." Bai Susu weakly added what happened later.

"Yes, now the emperor has sealed up all the Xiao family's sugar shop and those sugar yards, waiting to be dealt with." Xiao Jingyu looked at Bai Susu, "Zhou Ximing was also called into the palace by the emperor because of this matter, and he has not yet heard of it." The news is out."

"As long as this matter is carefully investigated, it can be found that something is wrong. The emperor should not punish him severely." Bai Susu frowned and sat beside Xiao Jingyu.

"Not necessarily." Xiao Jingyu sighed, "Over the years, Zhou Ximing's prestige has always been higher than that of the emperor. The emperor is jealous of him and always wants to pull him down from the position of prince. Now that there is such a good reason, the emperor has no reason not to use it. .”

"Then what about the title deed for the house you bought?" Bai Susu looked at Xiao Jingyu, "The title deed can always prove that you bought the house not long ago."

"The land deed was stolen yesterday, and now everyone in the yard insists that I am their former owner. If the land deed cannot be found, even the whole family will not change."

The people behind planned everything seamlessly and took away all the things that could be used as evidence. Now Xiao Jingyu is helpless and can only wait for news from the palace at Bai Susu's place.

Not long after, Ah Ying hurried over and stood in front of the two of them with a tense expression, "Young Master Xiao, Miss Bai, the emperor is furious now, and the third prince is fanning the flames, and now the master is kneeling in the palace."

"Then how does the emperor plan to deal with this matter?" Bai Susu frowned, looking at A Ying with a solemn expression.

"I don't know." A Ying paused for a moment, and then his voice became lower and lower, "But some ministers have already entered the palace, saying that the master has such a character... that he cannot be the crown prince."

"The emperor didn't give him a chance to find evidence?" Bai Susu couldn't believe that a father would be so cruel to his son.

"No, the emperor said..." Aying paused for a moment, his face became more solemn, "The evidence is solid, there is nothing to justify."

Hearing these words from A Ying, Bai Susu finally understood what Xiao Jingyu said just now.The emperor really wanted to use this matter to force him down from the position of prince.

She sat there thinking for a while, and suddenly remembered that she still had a jade pendant here, a flash of light flashed in her eyes, she looked at A Ying, "I have a solution."

Bai Susu took out the jade pendant from the room, and hurriedly left here, left here, and went straight to the palace.

When walking to the palace gate, Bai Susu lighted up the jade pendant in her hand, walked in easily through the palace gate, and followed a guard to the Hall of Mental Cultivation where the emperor lives now.

After walking to the center of the yard, Bai Susu saw Zhou Ximing kneeling there, alone, looking very lonely.

She glanced at Zhou Ximing, turned around and walked into the palace, looked at the emperor, knelt down and saluted, "The daughter of the people has seen the majesty."

"Why are you here?" The emperor frowned and looked at her, with displeasure in his eyes, his eyes fell on the jade pendant in her hand, and he remembered something, "Have you thought about what you asked for?"

"Yes." Bai Susu handed the jade pendant to the emperor, saying every word, "I implore the emperor to give the prince a chance to find the evidence, and return the prince's innocence."

The emperor did not expect Bai Susu to beg for such a thing, and his calm face became serious again at this moment. He sat on the dragon chair, looked down at Bai Susu, and said with anger in his voice, "You Why do you think the crown prince is innocent, and why do you think that I will agree to your request?"

"When the daughter of the people was managing the farmland, she saw His Highness the Crown Prince personally punish those officials who secretly embezzled the food of the people, and knew that he was definitely not the kind of person who used the food to make sugar. Moreover, the emperor promised the people with all his promise. This little request from a girl."
