The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

"You're talking nonsense!" Kou Peilin glared at the censor who was speaking, "I and Mr. Ji are clean and clear. Your Majesty, you can ask the Ministry of Revenue to check the grain, grass and bedding sold by the Ji family to the Ministry of War. Those accounts are all clear. I can Have you never done any shameful things with Mr. Ji in secret?"

"Okay, okay. Dali Temple will investigate this matter. Master Kou, please get up too. I am also tired today, so I will retreat from the court." As Emperor Likang said, he stood up and hurried away.

Eunuch Guo hurriedly sang: "If something happens, we will start to act; if nothing happens, we will retreat!"

When all the officials saw that the emperor was gone and they had nothing to report, they all dispersed.

Kou Peilin knelt there in disbelief, as if he had lost his soul.

Tian Muhuan came over and gently helped Kou Peilin up, "Master Kou, the censor impeached you, maybe you heard something from the public. For people like them, every sound blown by the wind can be heard as thunder, so don't you Take it to heart."

Kou Peilin stumbled to his feet, "Second Prince, I really didn't kill the more than 100 members of the Ji family. Who has such sinister intentions and wants to say that I did it?"

Tian Muhuan: "Didn't my father ask Master Yan and others to investigate? They will definitely clear your suspicions."

After sending Kou Peilin out of the hall, Tian Muhuan let go of his hand and said, "Master Kou, I want to go into the palace to visit my mother and concubine, so I won't see you off. Be careful on the way and don't bump into her."

Kou Peilin was grateful: "Thank you very much, Second Prince."

Tian Muhuan turned around and left, a sneer appearing on his lips.

Ji Xiang knew that it was already afternoon when Kou Peilin was impeached by the censor. At that time, she was reading the book "The Art of War". The art of war in it was indeed quite powerful. Even she, who had never been on the battlefield, wanted to go to the battlefield after reading the book. The urge to lead troops was overwhelming.

Xiong Er hurried over, "Miss, Kou Peilin has been impeached."

Jixiang put away the book: "Oh, why?"

Xiong Er: "I heard it was related to the Ji family tragedy." Xiong Er looked at Ji Xiang and said, "Isn't this the eldest lady's doing?"

Ji Xiang chuckled and handed the book to Xiong Er, "This military book of your Xiong family is really valuable. No wonder Kou Peilin didn't hesitate to frame you to get it."

Xiong Er didn't pick up the book: "Just leave the book with the eldest lady. I'm afraid it will disappear again if it stays with me."

"That's fine." Jixiang put the book away, "But I really didn't do this Kou Peilin thing. We have to find out who did it. Maybe this person can cooperate with us."

Xiong Er thought for a while: "I'll find a way!"

After Xiong Er left, Ji Xiang went to his yard at the back and went straight to Ji Ruian's room.

Ji Ruian's body has completely recovered. When he saw Jixiang coming back, he came up to him and said, "Jixiang, I want to go to Dali Temple Prison to visit your aunt and third uncle."

Ji Xiang was startled, and then he helped Ji Ruian sit down and comforted him: "Dad, this case is not over yet. I asked at Dali Temple and they said that my aunt and third uncle will not be able to come out until the prince comes forward to settle the case. You When I brought you out here, I brought you out in the name of a corpse. If I let the Dali Temple know that you are still alive..."

Ji Ruian: "Then we have to go back to jail like your third uncle and the others, right?"

Ji Xiang nodded.

Ji Ruian: "Then I understand. I'll go find the prince to close the case as soon as possible." He stood up to leave.

Ji Xiang was so frightened that he grabbed Ji Ruian and said, "Dad, I have something else to ask you."

Ji Ruian was startled.

Ji Xiang: "This morning, I heard that Kou Peilin was impeached, saying that he killed our family members in prison in the name of the prince. Dad, do you think Kou Peilin did this?"

Ji Ruian was stunned again: "Did Kou Peilin kill them?"

"I don't think so. Although Kou Peilin is scheming, but now that the prince is grounded, he will not do anything that would put him in a disadvantageous situation." Jixiang analyzed to Ji Ruian.

Ji Ruian frowned, "When I asked you to be the Crown Princess, he was the one who strongly encouraged me. My father thought that the Crown Prince and the Queen would not choose you, so he agreed. Who would have thought... In the end, the Queen and the Crown Prince only watched A portrait of you determines you as the Crown Princess. Kou Peilin's weight with the Crown Prince is indeed extraordinary."

Ji Xiang snorted coldly: "So you can't go to the prince now! When I was chosen to be the prince's concubine, I'm afraid it was a conspiracy between the prince and Kou Peilin to get all the property of my Ji family!"

Ji Ruian nodded, "Do you still remember a few songs that were popular in the northwest?"

"The Ji family in the northwest has plenty of food and horses, accumulates virtues and does good deeds, and brings blessings to the world!" Jixiang sang again, "When my grandfather knew about this, he got angry at home because he thought my father was too ostentatious and would cause trouble in the future!"

"Your grandfather is right. If my father had not been obsessed with this song and repeatedly provided food and grass for the Northwest Army, he would not have been tricked by Kou Peilin into what he is now!" Ji Ruian's eyes were filled with fire, "Kou Peilin , he will suffer retribution sooner or later."

Ji Ruian suddenly became miserable, "I'm sorry for the more than a hundred people in Ji's family. Jixiang, where did you put them all? My father wants to see them. My father wants to apologize to them. It's my father who made the whole Jixiang The family is destroyed! The Ji family, which has lasted for hundreds of years, is gone in my hands!" Ji Ruian cried, huddled there pitifully and helplessly.

Ji Xiang hugged Ji Ruian distressedly and comforted: "Father, our Ji family will not disappear. As long as you are still here, our Ji family will stand up again!"

Ji Ruian raised his head and looked at his daughter blankly, "How can we stand up when everyone is gone?"

Jixiang: "We still have brother Jiqing."

Ji Ruian's eyes lit up again: "Yes, we still have your aunt, your third uncle, and your brother Ji Qing! Ji Xiang, we will take advantage of Kou Peilin's impeachment to remove him from the position of Minister of War. Pull down from the position!”

Ji Xiang: "Father, do you have any evidence that Kou Peilin violated the court's laws?"

Ji Ruian thought for a while, "I wonder if the small courtyard I built in the capital was also confiscated by the court? I hid a piece of evidence in it that Kou Peilin made a mistake back then."

"Where is the courtyard?" Jixiang asked urgently. Although she found evidence in the documents in Kou Peilin's study that he bribed officials to get promoted, there was no evidence at all that he framed Xiong Er and the others. This time Kou Peilin was impeached, she originally wanted to take the opportunity to take down Kou Peilin and clear Xiong Er's name.

Ji Ruian: "On Chunxi Street, your mother's surname was used, and it was called Jiang Zhai."

"Jiangzhai on Chunxi Street?" Jixiang repeated, and he walked towards the door, "Father, stay at home, I'll go to Chunxi Street to find the evidence!" After saying that, the person disappeared.

Ji Ruian watched his daughter leave in shock, but later his face was filled with relief, "Who said women don't need to be well-educated? If they are well-educated, they will be as good as good sons." He thought that he had helped Jixiang find a master to learn martial arts. It's the right thing to do.
