After the people who caused trouble in Lancheng brothel were thrown out, they were secretly taken away by the government officials and imprisoned. This matter was so serious that the prefect immediately drafted a memorial and reported it.

As soon as Nacheng wanted to send the memorial away, the person in the prison disappeared.

The person was imprisoned in death row and was closely guarded. He disappeared without anyone noticing, and another memorial was immediately added.

The two memorials arrived in the capital almost at the same time, and the news actually came in at the same time.

"Your Majesty, there must be someone behind this who is adding fuel to the flames."

Emperor Chu Wen naturally knew that he could also guess who did this, it must be the Zhongyong Hou Mansion.

"What is Xie Shao doing these days?"

"The Emperor thinks he is Marquis Zhongyong?" The minister frowned slightly. Is it true that, as rumored, the house of Marquis Zhongyong can no longer be accommodated?

"Other than him, who else can have such a great ability!"

Emperor Wen of Chu was very angry. He never imagined that Xie Shao would dare to threaten him.

If he catches the guard, he can secretly execute him and issue an imperial edict to hold Nan Guo accountable and put these things on Nan Guo.

Unfortunately, that person is missing!

The man was hidden, and the news was spread to the capital, clearly to threaten him.

Emperor Wen of Chu felt that if he really wanted to put the matter on Nan Guo, Nan Guo could hand over that person to confront him.

Therefore, this matter must be acknowledged!

On the one hand, he respected his mother, and on the other hand, he was a jealous courtier. He could only choose the latter.

"Your Majesty, I just went to the Marquis Mansion to see Xie Shao yesterday. He is very ill. I'm afraid this matter has nothing to do with him."

"Seriously ill?"

"Yes, I was afraid of fraud, so I brought two doctors to the door. The diagnosis and treatment results were the same. Marquis Zhongyong was seriously ill."

When those rumors broke out in the capital, many people suspected that the news was sent by the Hou Mansion. Many people came to test the news, and the result was that Xie Shao was really ill.

Emperor Chu Wen was a little suspicious, "Where is Xie Qing'an?"

"The prince has always been by Xie Shao's side and has never left the Hou Mansion. Except for the second lady of the Yun family who came two days ago, no one has gone in or out of the Hou Mansion. Besides, the prince's body has not been cleared of the remaining poison, so he may not have the energy to do this. "

Outsiders only knew that Xie Qingan was in poor health, but in fact, Xie Qingan was poisoned.

"Is it true that no one comes in or out?"

"Yes."

"Where's the Yun family?"

"The second young lady came to visit the doctor. She returned to Yun's house soon after meeting Xie Shao, and she also never left the house... There was a maid beside her who went out three times, and each time she went to sit in the teahouse, and she didn't follow anyone the whole time. been touched.

After she left, she ordered someone to check her, but no information was left behind.

The minister guessed that he wanted to inquire about the latest news in the capital. "

Emperor Wen of Chu had the idea of ​​getting rid of the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, so he sent people to monitor him secretly. Any disturbance in the Zhongyong Hou Mansion would be reported to his ears.

Including the servants of Zhongyong Hou Mansion who came in and out, no one was missed.

Emperor Chu Wen indeed thought that Xie Shao ordered people to do these things, but after hearing these words, he had some doubts. Could it really have nothing to do with the Xie family?

"Your Majesty, I have received news that a caravan has arrived from the south. It is the same caravan that entered the capital on the day the rumors spread. I have been ordering people to keep an eye on them. I am afraid that this matter has something to do with them."

But no matter who did it, this matter must have a result!

*

The news has spread, everyone in the entire capital knows about it, and even several nearby cities know about it.

It was too late to block the news. If he did not give an explanation, Emperor Chu Wen would lose his support.

Other emperors might not care about these things, but Emperor Wen of Chu was different. He wanted to be a famous king through the ages and could not tolerate any stain.

Yun Shang was sure that Emperor Chu Wen would not ignore it, so he decided on this strategy.Yun Shang was sitting in the courtyard, eating a piece of cake that Jinxiu had just made, drinking tea that was not available in the palace, and placing the chess records on the chessboard.

It’s not her who’s anxious now, but——

"Miss, you put this chess piece in the wrong place. It should be placed here."

Yunshang:......

Why is her chess talent not as good as Jinxiu's?

Yun Shang was playing chess leisurely here, while the other side of the house was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"Yan'er, are all the reports outside true? The man sent by the Queen Mother was really captured?" Wen Shaoli was so anxious that she became more and more panicked and regarded Yun Yan as a life-saving straw.

Yunyan kept sending people out to inquire for news, and every time the news they brought back made her feel a little colder.

"Mom, sit down first and I'll think of a solution."

"There is no other way. How could the Queen Mother let that person go... You are still too soft-hearted. If you had advised the Queen Mother to kill the person at that time, how could things have happened today."

Yun Yan doesn't know this truth, but she can't.

This person is a close bodyguard of the Queen Mother and is trusted by the Queen Mother, so the Queen Mother will spare his life and let him go far away and come back in a year or two.

Yun Yan felt that this was inappropriate, but she had always been obedient, filial, and kind-hearted in front of the Queen Mother. If she let the Queen Mother kill someone, wouldn't she be hurting herself?

"It's useless to talk about it now. I'll write a letter first and see what that person says."

"Yes, ask sir for help, he will definitely help us get through the difficulties."

Wen Shaoli and Yun Yan knew in their hearts that they must bear the consequences of this matter. Even if they were liked by the Queen Mother, they would definitely die because the person on the other end was Emperor Wen of Chu.

In the Queen Mother's heart, no one or anything could be better than her son.

The only person they can turn to now is that mysterious person.

Yun Yan didn't know who the other person was, and they had rarely contacted her over the years, but this person helped them a lot.Including the meeting between Wen Shaoli and the Queen Mother at Qinglan Temple, how to please the Queen Mother was all planned by this person.

The idea of ​​blocking the sword for the Queen Mother also came from this person.

Things were going smoothly, but something went wrong this time.

Yun Yan didn't completely trust this person. He was too mysterious, but at the moment, there was no other way but to ask this person for help.

"Is there no news from the government yet?"

"I've been paying attention. The previous notices were all posted."

"Is this really happening?"

"Go and see, the two men from the Prime Minister's Mansion have appeared and are kneeling in front of the Meridian Gate to apologize."

"Admit it?"

"Go and see."

The official court of Meridian Gate was crowded with people, with people in three circles inside and three outside being unable to squeeze in. Those who came after them could only look inside with their feet up.

"What does it say? Can it be passed on?"

"I admit it, I admit it, the assassination is false."

"Really admitted it?"

"What was reported earlier was acknowledged by Yun Yan herself."

"God, this is really happening."

Yun Yan and Wen Shaoli knelt on the ground, carrying thorny thorns on their backs, staining their white skirts with blood.

The scorching sun hit the mother and daughter, making them look extremely embarrassed.

Yun Yan was indeed injured. Although it was not serious, she also bled a lot. In addition, she was already delicate, which made her look even weaker at this moment, which made people feel pity for her.

"This happened all because of me, today..."
