When the two of them left the hall, Gu Ning carefully applied the lipstick on the small mirror he carried with him.
Seeing her careful look, Xie Yan chuckled and said meaningfully, "Ning'er's lipstick tastes good today."
Hearing this, Gu Ning's ears instantly turned red.
"Nonsense!" After Gu Ning came to his senses, he snorted angrily.
Seeing Gu Ning's face turn red instantly, Xie Yan had a little smile in his eyes.
"Okay." Xie Yan nodded and said seriously, "I will tell Ning'er after I taste it carefully next time."
Gu Ning didn't want to hear any more and quickly tugged on Xie Yan's sleeve: "Let's go!"
She didn't want to hear such arrogant words anymore!
Outside the hall at this time.
The high-ranking ladies in the past were all disfigured from crying, and even their buns were messy and draped behind their backs. They were held in the open space and forced to look at Xia Zhiyuan in front of them.
Not only the noble daughter, but also most of the ministers of Guanglu Temple were suppressed, and the heads of various aristocratic families were also "invited" by the imperial army.
Master Xu looked at the mess on the ground and couldn't help but sigh.
How can this be so?
This thought came to his mind and he couldn't control it anymore.
When he heard these rumors, he didn't take them seriously. However, in just a few days, the rumors became more and more intense, and even the servants of the Xu family began to talk about it.
By then, Master Xu finally realized something was wrong.
However, just when he wanted to discuss with Huang Shangshu, he learned that the Imperial Army was arresting people in the streets and alleys. No matter what their identity was, whether they were men or women, as long as they were caught discussing this matter, they would be arrested. Put into prison.
The people who had just been arrested this morning were all taken to the Taiji Palace, and the heads of the aristocratic families were also brought here.
Looking at Xia Zhiyuan in the middle, Master Xu could already predict his ending.
"Your Highness's move..." Mr. Xu lowered his voice, "It's a bit too much."
Huang Shangshu had long been accustomed to Xie Yan's vigorous and resolute actions, so he snorted softly when he heard this: "They are asking for trouble."
Mr. Xu said angrily: "Even if you are asking for trouble, you shouldn't be... and you shouldn't be sentenced to death in public!"
Hearing this, Huang Shangshu shook his head: "Your Highness is not someone who only vents his selfish desires. I'm afraid Xia Zhiyuan has done other things besides spreading rumors."
Master Xu glanced at Huang Shangshu suspiciously, with distrust clearly written on his face.
"Is this true?" Mr. Xu lowered his voice and asked, "Didn't you work in Dali Temple before? Didn't you hear the slightest bit of news?"
Huang Shangshu snorted contemptuously from his nose: "Who do you think I am? The handling of cases in Dali Temple is confidential, and I don't dare to pry around."
"Besides..." Huang Shangshu said this, pouting in the direction of Lu Yu, "That is the minister of Dali Temple. If you have the ability to pry out the news from him, my position as minister will So what if I do it for you?”
Master Xu snorted lightly, but didn't say anything else.
He knew that Lu Yu was not that easy to deal with.
Lu Yu's temperament is like a stone in a latrine - smelly and hard.
He wanted to get the news from Lu Yu, but it was simply a dream.
Thinking of this, Mr. Xu simply closed his mouth and looked steadily at Xia Zhiyuan in the middle.
Xia Zhiyuan was forced to kneel on the ground, and the killing aura of the two forbidden soldiers around him made him tremble all over.
Even now, Xia Zhiyuan still feels that he is dreaming.
He never imagined that the high-ranking minister of Guanglu Temple who he was the day before would now be a prisoner!
These eyes were like rays on his back, Xia Zhiyuan was so ashamed and angry that he was dying of shame!
However, Xia Zhiyuan no longer cared about that. He was trembling all over. Once he knew that his death was coming, he could not control the fear in his heart no matter what.
However, no matter what he thought, he didn't know how to solve the current dead situation.
At this moment, Xie Yan and Gu Ning walked out together.
Seeing these two people, Xia Zhiyuan's eyes turned red.
Yue Ming stepped forward quickly, opened the bright yellow imperial edict in his hand, and read out Xia Zhiyuan's crimes one by one.
When they heard that Xia Zhiyuan was going to be executed, the eyes of the noble ladies widened.
But Xie Yan showed no mercy. As soon as he raised his hand, the knife was placed on Xia Zhiyuan's neck.
Immediately afterwards, the ladies' screams of fear rang out.
They tried to close their eyes, but the palace maids standing behind them forced them to open their eyes wide, and they had to watch Xia Zhiyuan's head fall to the ground.
A large amount of blood spurted out, and the ladies opened their eyes wide, staring blankly at the scene in front of them.
Some timid ladies have already fainted. Even the boldest ladies have been pampered and raised. When have they ever seen such a bloody scene?
For a time, the whole place in front of Tai Chi Hall was filled with sobbing and crying.
Seeing this scene, Mr. Xu couldn't bear to close his eyes and couldn't help but rejoiced: "Fortunately, Wan'er and Feiyao are not here."
Huang Shangshu looked coldly at these noble ladies who lowered their heads and cried, with no sympathy in his eyes.
In his eyes, these noble ladies acted improperly and they deserved it for themselves.
Seeing the coldness in Huang Shangshu's eyes, Mr. Xu sighed with emotion, shook his head and said, "I knew you were hard-hearted, but I didn't expect you to be so cold-hearted."
"Just thinking about Feiyao seeing such a bloody scene, my heart almost twitches."
Huang Shangshu snorted coldly: "Feiyao and Wan'er are definitely not such long-tongued women!"
"How can they discuss the future queen?"
"These people are both stupid and bad!"
Gu Ning's status is noble, but no sensible person would discuss this matter in public, and some people with ulterior motives really deserve to end up like this!
"With Your Highness's behavior today, people in the capital will no longer dare to talk about the princess." Huang Shangshu thought about it for a moment and said, "I don't know whether it is good or bad for His Highness to be so affectionate towards the princess? "
After hearing this, Mr. Xu stroked his beard and laughed: "I see that the princess and your highness are both in good health. As long as they can give birth to a son and a half, our country of Chu will be stable."
Huang Shangshu thought about it carefully and understood the reason for Master Xu's words.
"I see." Huang Shangshu nodded and agreed, "But with the miracle doctor here, even if you have any difficult and complicated diseases, it will be a trivial matter in front of the miracle doctor."
The existence of Divine Doctor Zhou has long been known to everyone in the capital.
If someone has a difficult or complicated disease, they will go to Pei's Mansion and ask Divine Doctor Zhou for treatment.
The two of them were very excited about chatting, and they had already forgotten the crying ladies in front of the Tai Chi Palace.
"I heard that Divine Doctor Zhou is good at treating gynecological diseases." Huang Shangshu lowered his voice and said, "I'm thinking of asking Divine Doctor Zhou to come over tomorrow and show my wife."
"My wife has been depressed recently. She asked the palace doctor to see her, but she couldn't figure out the reason. Why don't I also ask Divine Doctor Zhou?"
"Divine Doctor Zhou likes fine wine the most. I have a jar of 50-year-old Bamboo Leaf Green at home. I wonder if I can ask Divine Doctor Zhou to do it!"
The more they talked, the more excited they became.
The surrounding ministers originally wanted to hear what the two men were talking about, but unexpectedly they were talking about how to please a doctor. After hearing this, one of the ministers showed contempt.
Not far away, Lu Yu, who had a clear view of everyone's expressions, sneered and walked slowly to Xie Yan's side.
He said a few words to Xie Yan, his eyes drifting to the group of ministers from time to time. For a moment, the ministers were all in danger.
Lu Yu is a madman!
This is the unanimous thought in the minds of all ministers.
Ever since Lu Yu became the Minister of Dali Temple, most of the people in the imperial court went to Tianlao.
Needless to say, there is no need to describe the torture involved. Even the words and deeds in daily life must be paid more attention to, because if you are not careful, you will be targeted by Lu Yu.
Most of those targeted by Lu Yu were exiled with their families, and no one had a good ending.
However, Lu Yu glanced at them a few times and then looked back.
They couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Huang Shangshu noticed the little thoughts of the ministers around him and simply sneered.
"Now they know they are afraid. They don't even think about it. The people Lu Yu arrested are all corrupt officials. As long as they act upright and sit upright, why should they be afraid of Lu Yu?"
Huang Shangshu was also the minister of Dali Temple before, so he naturally knew the difficulties of the minister of Dali Temple.
Each of these colleagues is more skilled than the last!
Seeing that everyone was targeting Lu Yu, he couldn't help but say a few words that he thought were fair.
Upon hearing these words, Mr. Xu secretly tugged on his sleeves and whispered: "Brother Huang, you can just think about these words in your heart, why do you need to say them out loud?"
"So what if you say it?" Huang Shangshu said displeased, "Aren't we just serving the people and the country? If we all guard and steal like Xia Zhiyuan, then our Chu country will perish! Didn't you listen to what Guard Yue said just now? Xia Zhiyuan He stole 10 taels of silver during his excursion! How much money can he get from Guanglu Temple in total?"
"No wonder the food at our banquet is becoming more and more unpalatable!" Huang Shangshu complained softly again.
After hearing this, Master Xu's mouth twitched.
However, he was deeply touched by what Huang Shangshu said.
Mr. Xu doesn't have any other hobbies on weekdays. He only likes food. The banquet in the palace used to be like a hundred flowers blooming, but later, everything he saw was the same food, and it was impossible to eat it.
Some ministers also nodded one after another. They were all gentlemen. On weekdays, they would not even want to serve an extra dish at home, so they just wanted to eat more at the palace banquet. Who would have thought that the standard of the palace banquet would become worse and worse. Sometimes Can't even afford some good meat.
Now it seems that all the money has been stolen by Xia Zhiyuan.
"How many banquets can we have with hundreds of thousands of silver?"
"No wonder His Highness was so angry that he executed him directly in front of us. If it were me, I would probably be even more powerful than His Highness."
"Xia Zhiyuan is really audacious. He stole hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and didn't know how to restrain himself. He even sent people to smear the reputation of the princess. No wonder His Highness is angry."
Everyone was talking a lot. What Xia Zhiyuan did was too shocking. All the people's attention was attracted by Xia Zhiyuan, except for the occasional mention of Gu Ning.
……
Xu family.
Huang Wanwan's face was full of shock. She lowered her voice and said to Xu Feiyao: "I also heard what people outside said, but I didn't expect that Master Xia has such a vicious heart! Although the princess is a little more arrogant, she is still He has never done anything inappropriate. By doing this, isn’t he just forcing the princess to die?”
Hearing this, Xu Feiyao also nodded with a cold expression: "Fortunately, Your Highness believes in the princess, otherwise, his scheme will probably succeed!"
"I'm sorry for Xia Weiwei." Huang Wanwan whispered, "I heard that she was harmed by Mr. Xia! Although His Highness spared her life, he confiscated all her jewelry and property. I saw her and Xia today. Madam, you are covered in linen.”
"Mabu?" Xu Feiyao said in shock, "Even if all the Xia family's property is taken away, isn't there still the Wu family? The Wu family can bear to see their daughter and granddaughter wearing linen clothes?"
"I heard..." Huang Wanwan protracted her voice and whispered, "Mrs. Xia requested it herself. She said that only by doing this can she atone for her sins."
Huang Wanwan whispered, Xu Feiyao listened carefully, both of them looked serious.
At this time, Lord Xu and Huang Shangshu walked in quickly.
Seeing their daughters together, Huang Shangshu first felt not happy, but uneasy.
Seeing her careful look, Xie Yan chuckled and said meaningfully, "Ning'er's lipstick tastes good today."
Hearing this, Gu Ning's ears instantly turned red.
"Nonsense!" After Gu Ning came to his senses, he snorted angrily.
Seeing Gu Ning's face turn red instantly, Xie Yan had a little smile in his eyes.
