After dressing as a villain's ex-wife, she went crazy for whitewashing

own people?

Xie Zhizhou was slightly startled, took a deep look at Xiao Yunheng, and said: "The second prince is under house arrest."

As soon as the words came out, the room suddenly fell silent.

"What's going on?" Xiao Yunheng was still calm.

Among the three princes, the second prince was born of the empress, and the eldest prince died young. Logically speaking, the position of crown prince would fall on him without accident.

However, this talent is mediocre, acting perversely and violently, never knowing how to cover up, relying on his status as a descendant to look down on the other princes, and even conniving at his subordinates to do many outrageous things.

If there is no queen, with the support of the queen's mother's family, the second prince has no chance to compete with the other two.

A few people sat down and listened to Xie Zhizhou's words: "The fifth prince reported the matter of the second prince's private embezzlement of the silver mine. Long Yan was furious and put him under house arrest. It was probably because of bad luck, not only about the silver mine, but also because he was in the south Privately forged weapons."

Without documents, casting weapons privately is a serious crime that implicates the nine clans.

He is the prince, and the nine clans are not connected, but for the rest of his life, he may be trapped in the prince's mansion forever.

"However, the emperor has not made a decree clearly, and is still investigating this matter."

"There's nothing to investigate." Zhao Pinqian sneered, "Since there is evidence, shouldn't the prince break the law and commit the same crime as the common people."

Xie Zhizhou glanced at him dissatisfied, "The Holy Majesty is looking for who else is conspiring with him."

After all, the three princes each have many followers.

Several people understand.

As the saying goes, when the tree falls and the monkeys scatter, everyone who follows the second prince is in danger, everyone is afraid of implicating themselves, and they can't care about helping him cover up other criminal evidence.

This matter has been investigated for half a month, and two third-rank officials were found out, and there are still more.

In addition, there are many crimes committed by the second prince in the past, which were suppressed by the queen's power.

The Holy Majesty was furious, probably because he was afraid of losing face to the royal family, so he didn't announce many things to the outside world, only talking about the second prince's private casting of weapons and swallowing silver mines.

Even these two things were suppressed and not spread.

The second prince fell, and the empress and mother's family were naturally implicated. The empress was eager to save her son, and had already knelt outside the hall until she fainted, but the sage didn't even bother to take a look.

"Is there any movement at Ji Wuhen's side?" Xiao Yunheng was puzzled.

Ji Wuhen is the third prince.

His mother and concubine had a humble status and died young, and she was the weakest among the princes, but it was only in the past few years that she began to gain a firm foothold in the court with the help of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

When Ji Wuhen was young, he was often bullied by the second prince, and he had a temperament of vindictiveness. Xiao Yunheng didn't think he would miss such an opportunity to add insult to injury.

Hearing this, Xie Zhizhou smiled.

"He, he has to take care of himself right now."

Xiao Yunheng slightly raised his eyebrows: "How to say?"

"Brother, do you still remember Yao Xinyu?"

The daughter of the prime minister's mansion, the No. 1 noble daughter in the capital.

Xiao Yunheng sneered, he really remembered it too well.

"Father intends to marry her to the Seventh Prince, so he must not die in a hurry." Xie Zhizhou's lips were filled with a deep smile, almost gloating at others' misfortunes written on his face.

The Seventh Prince is the son of Concubine Su Gui. Su Guifei's background is not high, and the Seventh Prince is an idle prince. He most wants to be a wild crane in the clouds. The Holy Majesty bestows a marriage. Even the blind can see that it is to check and balance.

Whenever Yao Xinyu married Ji Wuhen, there was no one in the court who could check and balance him.

Xiao Yunheng sneered, "He has been planning for so many years, if Yao Xinyu marries the Seventh Prince, I'm afraid it will be nothing."

"Who said it wasn't."

Listening to the two talking to each other, Lu Xiyue was startled.

There is no such plot in the original text, Ji Wuhen and Yao Xinyu got married very smoothly, and more importantly, the marriage was bestowed by the Holy One.

How could the other person who gave the marriage now become the seventh prince!

The surprise is real, and the surprise is real.

Ever since she transmigrated into this book and changed the first plot, the direction of the story has been very different from the original book.

In this way, the two protagonists didn't need much power to shake their status and aura. She was far away in Qiong County, and just changed things about Xiao Yunheng, which had already produced so much influence.

She clenched her fist secretly, as expected it was right to follow the villain.

Xie Zhizhou told Xiao Yunheng all the major events that happened in the capital recently, and Xiao Yunheng was very surprised by the fifth prince who suddenly pouted.

As a child of the clan, Xiao Yunheng naturally had dealings with the fifth prince.

The fifth prince had always been mediocre, and he rarely stood out in front of others. He was always a good person. I really didn't expect that he would hide it so deeply that the second prince would have no room to maneuver once he made a move.

Lu Xiyue was also shocked.

It's the same as the candidate for the marriage in the selection, the fifth prince has always been mediocre, not a great talent, and in the end he went to play with the seventh prince, and married a noble girl with both talent and beauty.

However, shortly after Ji Wuhen proclaimed himself emperor, the fifth prince died of an emergency.

There are not many descriptions of the fifth prince in the book, only mentioning that his mother and concubine were childhood sweethearts with the current emperor. Unfortunately, because the family is not very powerful, when the former emperor passed the position of crown prince to the current emperor, he was very opposed to the fifth prince. His biological mother is the princess.

He needs a powerful person from his mother's family to help the Holy Majesty consolidate his position, and this person is naturally the queen.

The fifth prince's biological mother became Concubine Hui after entering the palace, and she had been in love with the Holy One for many years. Two years after giving birth to the fifth prince, her health began to deteriorate, and she passed away within half a year.

After Concubine Hui left, the emperor rarely saw the fifth prince again.

The affairs in the royal family are complicated to say the least, but if you dig deeper, there may be something hidden in it.

Xiao Yunheng and Xie Zhizhou talked for a long time, seeing that it was getting late, Lu Xiyue made it easy for Zhao Pinqian to go to see the two killers first.

After the two walked away, Xie Zhizhou, who was talking endlessly, stopped talking, raised his eyes, stared at the direction where Lu Xiyue left, turned his head, and looked at Xiao Yunheng with a serious face.

"Brother, I have something to ask you, you have to tell me the truth."

Seeing him like this, Xiao Yunheng only thought it was something important, and nodded immediately: "You said it, when did I lie to you?"

The young man raised his black eyebrows, his black eyes were sharp, and he opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "Are you fascinated by Lu Xiyue's beauty?"

From the moment he entered the door, he protected Lu Xiyue.

Looking at the noble ladies in the capital, Lu Xiyue's appearance is also very outstanding among them. If she pretends to be a good person, the frustrated Xiao Yunheng will inevitably be deceived.

There was someone there just now, Xie Zhizhou was not easy to ask, now that the person is gone, he naturally has no scruples.

Xiao Yunheng rarely lost his composure, and looked at the young man in front of him in astonishment.

Bewitched by Lu Xiyue's beauty, he is that kind of womanizer, let alone Lu Xiyue...

Her appearance is indeed outstanding, but it does not mean that he is a superficial person who cares about appearance.
