The third prince was then satisfied, and chatted with the emperor about what he had seen along the way, saying that he had learned how to dig out bird eggs and hunt rabbits.

But he did not delay his homework, and instead learned better than when he was in the palace.

The emperor was a little surprised, "Did Wen Xiangzhu teach you?"

"Yes, Mr. Wen not only taught me, but also taught Yueyue and Brother Pang Ci. They all studied very seriously."

Speaking of this, the emperor suddenly thought of the letter he sent back.

"Why is the last sentence of the letter you sent back so missing? It's like you've lost the rest of the letter."

"what?"

The third prince didn't know why, so he asked someone to take the letter and read it.

After reading this, his face wrinkled up into a bun and he let out a long sigh.

"This Lord Wen is so sad!"

The emperor was amused by him and asked him what was going on.

"Back to my father, there were two pages of letter paper at the back, all of which were the good things my son praised Lord Wen. He probably took them away and hid them. He really, really made me so angry!"

The emperor's eyes became more interested after hearing this.

He had underestimated Wen Xiangzhu before.

I just don’t know whether he is really of noble character or just too smart.

But no matter what it is, being exiled there because of unfounded charges is a waste for the court.

Seeing that the third prince was so convinced of him and had really made progress in his studies, the emperor had an idea in his mind, just waiting for Wen Xiangzhu to return to the capital.

At this time, Wen Xiangyang and the three people who had been living in the Ninth Prince's Villa also heard about the third prince who had been rescued after being rescued from the northwest.

It is said that an exiled prisoner who was exiled to the northwest saved the third prince who was being hunted by assassins.

The emperor is now ordering people to retry the case of the prisoner's exile. It is possible that the case will be overturned.

After Wen Xiangyang heard this, he immediately thought of Wen Xiangzhu.

But it feels impossible.

He was a man who could only read rotten books, and his legs were broken. He walked all the way there, and he was probably just barely alive when he got to the place of exile.

How can he save people?

It must not be him.

Wen Xiangyang thought so, but felt a little uneasy in his heart.

The three members of the family sat together during dinner, and his absent-mindedness was noticed.

"What's wrong, son? Are you having trouble with Princess Wen Ning?"

Princess Wenning was the late emperor's 12th princess, and she had always had a close relationship with the Ninth Prince.

Since meeting Wen Xiangyang through Ninth Prince, the relationship between the two has become closer and closer.

Liu Jin is happy to see the success, and dreams of being a princess and mother-in-law every day.

"Princess Wen Ning is a golden girl after all. You have to give in to her more and coax her more, do you hear me?"

Wen Xiangyang nodded, "I know, I was thinking about another thing."

He told his parents what he had heard, and the butler Liu Fu was so shocked that the food on his chopsticks dropped.

"It can't be right? How could it be such a coincidence? Don't scare yourself, or let your father be scared."

Liu Jin didn't take it seriously, she had never taken Wen Xiangzhu seriously.

Liu Fu regretted and said, "I told you a long time ago that if you want him to be exiled for whatever reason, just lock him up. This will save you from being so suspicious and frightened now."

Liu Jin: "What are you afraid of? I am his aunt no matter what, and Xiangyang is his younger brother, and we are doing it for the good of the Wen family, and we don't mean to harm him. The worst we can say is that we were rescued by the princess, and he can still Isn’t it true that you are rebelling against your relatives and friends?”

"Mom, you have a great idea!"

Wen Xiangyang pounded the table excitedly and continued: "As long as the Ninth Prince is not involved, he will not know the truth about his home confiscation and exile. As for his own exile, who made the princess not fall in love with him, but instead fall in love with me? Well, there is nothing we can do. When the Ninth Prince successfully ascends the throne, he will understand our good intentions."

Liu Fu: "Okay, okay, that's it. Just in case, you and the princess go to say hello early tomorrow morning."

"Good dad."

Wen Xiangyang agreed, thinking that this was the worst outcome.

The three of them no longer talked about Wen Xiangzhu, but discussed how to make the princess happy.

And this night, many people never slept a wink.

The first person to bear the brunt was the Minister of Punishment.

As the person most directly responsible, at worst he formed a clique for personal gain and abused his power, at worst he was incompetent in controlling his subordinates and employing people unfavorably.

He just couldn't understand. He had been sent to such a far place, and he was even tortured by officials along the way. How could he still have the ability to ask the emperor to personally interrogate him?

Now, he can only abandon his car to save his commander-in-chief and let his cronies take the blame for him.

As for the rest of the Wen family, he sent someone overnight to ask the Ninth Prince what he meant.

The next day, the Wen family was handed over the evidence that the Wen family was not guilty, but that it was maliciously framed by a junior official in the Ministry of Punishment because of an old grudge against the Wen family.

The emperor clutched his chest and threw the paper to the ground in disgust.

When something goes wrong, the person who makes the mistake is an unnamed petty official under his command. He doesn't even think about whether such a case can't be handled by a petty officer.

It can only be said that he has been ill for a long time, and even his fooling around has become more and more blatant.

"What about the rest of the Wen family? Why is Wen Xiangzhu the only one who was exiled?"

Shen Tan knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise his head, "Back to the emperor, I interrogated the daring man overnight, but he refused to say anything and committed suicide out of fear of guilt."

"Okay, very good."

The emperor was just about to get angry and ask the capital to start searching for the whereabouts of other members of the Wen family, when the eunuch next to him suddenly came in from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Princess Wen Ning is asking for an audience. She said she has something to do with the Wen family."

The emperor's eyes changed slightly, "Let her come in."

Princess Wen Ning has a cute and domineering temperament. After coming in to say hello, she directly told the story that the Wen family was actually hidden by her.

Wen Xiangyang went to see her secretly in the morning and told her his concerns and concerns.

After hearing this, Princess Wen Ning sent someone to inquire, and sure enough she found out that the emperor was at Cha Wen's house.

She thought that instead of waiting for that Wen Xiangzhu to come back to plead guilty, she might as well say hello to the emperor directly first.

Anyway, the Wen family had overturned the verdict, so she could go out with Wen Xiangyang openly.

After the emperor heard what she said, he became less angry. He glanced at the sweat-dropping forehead of the Minister of Justice and let her leave as if nothing had happened.

Princess Wen Ning retreated with satisfaction, and couldn't help but quickly share the good news with Wen Xiangyang.

The Minister of Justice was left kneeling there, but his face was no longer as relaxed as before.

He knelt down anxiously, but the person in charge said nothing. For a moment, the room was as quiet as a pindrop.

I don't know how long it took before the emperor gave a faint order and asked him to send someone to bring Wen Xiangzhu back.

Take it back in a fair and honorable manner.

After Shen Tan walked out of the imperial study room, he felt like he was wet with sweat all over his body.

So did the Emperor guess that this matter was related to the Ninth Prince?

The Ninth Prince and Princess Wen Ning have always been good friends. Now that Princess Wen Ning has stepped in, it is really easy to be exposed.

But the emperor's reaction seemed not to think that way at all.

I hope that's the case, otherwise it will be a disaster for them.
