At this time, two yamen servants came out and posted a notice beside the yamen.

After the yamen officer finished posting it, everyone gathered around to watch out of curiosity.

I saw on the notice that Mrs. Jiang and her daughter, Dou Shizhi, Zhou Jiulong, and Shi Wenkai were arrested, and that the Shi family and the Zhou family were sealed off.

He also informed the world that all people who had been oppressed by these families could come to the Yamen to submit complaints, or victims with other grievances could come to the Yamen to file complaints.

An hour after the notice was posted, the yamen gate was already crowded with people, all holding warrants in their hands.

But they didn't hold out much hope. After all, if they, common people, wanted to go to the yamen to file a grievance, no matter whether it was justified or not, they would have to face forty obstacles first, and the Zhou family had never won any of their lawsuits.

However, the yamen servants in front of the yamen today seem to be different from before.

Two government officials walked up to them and told them with smiles on their faces that anyone who wanted to submit a petition to redress their grievances should go and line up.

Wait for them to line up, and then invite the first person to go into the Yamen to complain.

In the Prince's House.

Li Beimo went to the palace early in the morning to attend court, but Cheng Qingqing woke up from her sleep at midnight.

She patted her head, feeling that she was getting more and more sleepy.

After getting up and washing up, and eating something, thinking about what happened yesterday, he made preparations to enter the palace.

She took Dongxue and Dongyue out of the door of the mansion and saw a huge plaque hung on the lintel of the door, with three large gilded characters "Prince's Mansion" written on it.

As soon as they entered the palace, they saw a palace maid in her 30s coming up to her, curtsting and saluting, "I have seen the Crown Princess, Your Majesty!"

Cheng Qingqing recognized this maid from Li Xin'er Yaochi Palace. It was said that she was once Queen Feng's personal maid.

"Aunt Xi, there is no need to be polite."

"Crown Princess, Your Majesty has asked your servants to wait here for your Majesty. If you enter the palace, you will be asked to go directly to the Imperial Study Room, where His Royal Highness is also." Aunt Xi said to her in a gentle tone.

"Thank you so much, Aunt Xi." Cheng Qingqing smiled.

At this time, several eunuchs came over carrying a shoulder cart.

"Mother, please get on the couch and sit down. You are pregnant now, so be careful." Aunt Xi came over and wanted to help her.

"No need, Aunt Xi, it's not very far from the imperial study. Let's just walk there!" Cheng Qingqing was really not used to having several people carry her.

After she finished speaking, she walked away first.

When Aunt Xi saw this, she had no choice but to ask people to step back and follow her, carefully following and protecting her, "My dear, please be careful where you step."

"Aunt Xi, don't worry. I am a general who has been on the battlefield. How can I be someone who will trip over just walking?"

Cheng Qingqing looked at her gentle smile and suddenly felt that there was a mother-like kindness and kindness in Aunt Xi.

"Princess, if the Queen has a spirit in the sky, she will be very happy to know that you are pregnant with Xiao Longsun." Aunt Xi said with tears in her eyes.

Hearing her words, Cheng Qingqing couldn't help but said curiously: "Aunt Xi, my mother must be a very gentle person."

"Your Majesty is right. The Queen is not only virtuous and gentle, but also kind to everyone. She is also a rare beauty in this world. Your Highness the Prince's appearance is just like that of our Queen!" Aunt Xi said with a smile.

Cheng Qingqing thought of Mrs. Jiang. Although they were sisters from the same mother, their personalities were completely different.

Although one is the queen of a country, she does not fight for it and takes everything lightly; while Mrs. Jiang is ambitious, greedy for vanity, always dreaming of things that do not belong to her, and will use any means to achieve her goals.

As they walked along, Aunt Xi told her something about Queen Feng and Li Beimo's childhood.

"I have seen the princess!"

Ling Feng and Zheng Dadong were guarding outside the imperial study room. When they saw her coming, they hurriedly greeted her.

"Yes." Cheng Qingqing nodded to them and walked into the imperial study. Eunuch Du was busy opening the door for her, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha, "Princess, please come in quickly."

"Thank you, Eunuch Du."

Cheng Qingqing felt that Eunuch Du had a good heart and was pleasing to the eye when he smiled, so she took out two ingots of gold and rewarded him and Aunt Xi, "This is for you two to drink tea with."

Suddenly, she remembered that as a princess, she had not rewarded the eunuch in charge.

Eunuch Du and Aunt Xi were stunned for a moment when they saw such a large ingot of gold, but they couldn't refuse the reward from their master.

"Thank you madam for the reward."

Cheng Qingqing smiled slightly and walked into the imperial study. The charcoal stove inside was burning brightly, and the warm breath hit her face.

Emperor Jiahe and Li Beimo were talking about something when they heard the sound of opening the door and looked over.

"Qingqing, you're here." Li Beimo quickly came over to help her up, "I just went to the Ancestral Temple with my father to worship our ancestors, and I knew you were coming soon."

"My son, I have met my father." Cheng Qingqing first greeted Emperor Jiahe.

"No courtesy." Emperor Jiahe looked very unhappy, with anger still shining in his eyes.

"This Fengzi is really too much. You just came back yesterday and went to make trouble in the prince's mansion. It seems that I have neglected her in these years."

Cheng Qingqing wanted to say in her heart: The biggest root cause of this matter is not because of you.

Empress Feng and Dou Shizhi already had an engagement, and even the wedding date was set. But you snatched her love and took her fiancée away based on your status. Everyone would hold a grudge, so you decided to overthrow your Li family. thoughts.

Fortunately, Dou Shizhi was not very lucky and had no great abilities. He encountered obstacles everywhere. The Lin family looked down on him but wanted to take advantage of him.

He killed Jiang Linan and wanted to take over the position of Minister of Household Affairs, thinking that he could get close to the emperor in this way. Unfortunately, luck passed him by again.

"Father, the Biluojiu poison that Li Beimo was poisoned before was brought by Dou Shizhi from the Beixin Kingdom and given to the Lin family."

Hearing this, Emperor Jiahe showed a bit of embarrassment on his face.

But if he had it to do over again, he would make the same choice. As a prince, if he couldn't even marry the woman he loved, what was the use of the throne?

Suddenly I realized that both father and son only love beauty but not the country!

"Squeak!" The door was suddenly opened, and Li Xiner ran in quickly. As soon as he came in, he said: "Brother Wang, Sister-in-law Wang, you have entered the palace."

Cheng Qingqing smiled and said, "Well, I've sent you bullets to save you the trouble of leaving the palace again."

Dong Xue, who was standing nearby, heard this, put a wooden box in her hand on the table, and helped her unpack the outer packaging, "Your Highness, these are the bullets the Crown Princess gave you, a total of [-] rounds."

"Okay." Li Xin'er happily opened the box and saw two iron boxes inside.

She took out one of the boxes and was surprised to see that the box was completely sealed with no cracks. "Dongxue, how do you open this box?"

"Pull it open like this!" Dongxue took the iron box, clasped a small iron ring on it with her fingers, and then pulled it up hard. The thin iron sheet on it was completely torn off, revealing the items inside. Small paper box.

Li Xin'er was surprised, "Sister-in-law Wang's things are so magical. How did they do it?"

"Princess, these bullets are enough for you to practice for a while." Dongxue said.

"Thank you, Mrs. Wang." Li Xin'er put the bullet away like a treasure.
