The man's words were like a thunderclap in Xie Leifeng's ears. He was so shocked that he almost lost his balance.

"You mean... Lin Shaoshu?"

Xie Leifeng no longer had the aggressive attitude he had just had, and his voice was even a little hoarse as he asked, "Why, why did he do this?"

Even though due to some reasons, the Xie family did not dote on him as much as Xiao Xuetang, but these uncles have been secretly protecting Lin Shaoshu over the years.

Yesterday, Xie Leikun was pissed off by Lin Shaoshu, but today, he heard someone in the restaurant slandering Concubine Xie's innocence, and even implied Lin Shaoshu. Xie Leikun was so angry that he went straight up to fight with the person.

Can……

But all this was arranged by Lin Shaoshu!

He even schemed against his own uncle?

"Why else? Lin Shaoshu wants to stir up a conflict between you and the Eastern Palace so that he can reap the benefits."

Xiao Xuetang said with a gloomy face...

In her previous life, her grandfather was reinstated by Emperor Yonghui half a year after she married Lin Shaoshu. At that time, her three uncles returned to Beijing with her grandfather, which attracted a lot of attention.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, something happened to my second uncle.

He beat up the crown prince in the street!

Later, the Imperial Clan Court investigated the matter and found that the Eastern Palace had spread rumors to slander the Xie family and Concubine Xie. Xie Leikun beat people to protect the reputation of the royal family.

At that time, Emperor Yonghui was furious...

He didn't expect that the prince and his mother, whom he had always loved, would not even care about his face in order to target Lin Shaoshu and the Xie family.

The prince gradually lost the emperor's favor because of this, and Lin Shaoshu became the biggest beneficiary of this.

However, although Xie Leikun was exempted from the death penalty for beating the crown prince, he was punished in prison by the people of the Eastern Palace and became a cripple...

Her majestic second uncle, who used to hold her in his arms while riding horses and shooting arrows, has since become a disabled man who can no longer walk and can only spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair!

In his previous life, Xiao Xuetang and the rest of the Xie family blamed Donggong for this.

Originally, the Xie family had been maintaining a neutral position in the fight for the throne, and after being recalled to the capital by Emperor Yonghui, the Xie family refused to express their support for Lin Shaoshu. However, the injury of the second uncle was a huge blow to them, and under the pressure of various situations, the Xie family had no choice but to stand on the side of Lin Shaoshu and get involved in the fight for the throne, which was completely against the original intention of my grandfather...

Even though there were various factors at the time that led to the Xie family being dragged into the vortex of Kyoto, it was Xiao Xuetang who ultimately facilitated the cooperation between the Xie family and Lin Shaoshu.

But it was Xiao Xuetang who pushed the Xie family into an irretrievable situation!

In the previous life, the Xie family was defeated, and several uncles died or became disabled. Xiao Xuetang had an unshirkable responsibility.

Fortunately, I have a new life, and everything is still in time...

Lin Shaoshu, it was indeed him, it was actually him!

Xiao Xuetang's eyes were filled with surging hatred. If Lin Shaoshu was in front of him, he would have wanted to tear him into pieces.

Xie Leifeng also suffered a heavy blow.

The third brother once told him that Lin Shaoshu was a scheming kid who would harm the Xie family one day. At that time, Xie Leifeng didn't believe it, but he didn't expect that the third brother's words would come true one by one.

Why is this?

"For his ambition."

Xiao Xuetang quickly regained his composure and said to Xie Leifeng, "Don't publicize what happened today for now. And Uncle Wu, lock him up first, and then we can talk about it after we have resolved the matter at the Marquis' Mansion."

Living a new life, there are some mysteries about Lin Shaoshu waiting for her to solve.

These mysteries are related to the Xie family and Concubine Xie...

Uncle Wu naturally followed orders. At this time, Xiao Xuetang seemed to have thought of something and said to Xie Leiying, "Uncle, you should stay in the old house for the next two days. Wait until the storm calms down before meeting the emperor."

Xiao Xuetang's tone was calm, but he had an inexplicable ability to convince people.

Xie Leifeng's eyelids jumped. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he actually saw the shadow of the third brother in Xiao Xuetang...

"Anyway, I haven't submitted the memorial to the palace yet, so it doesn't matter if it's a few days earlier or later. But you have to tell me what you want to do with the Marquis's Mansion."

Xie Leifeng said worriedly.

Before meeting Xiao Xuetang today, Xie Leikun was worried that Xiao Xuetang was young and had encountered unexpected changes, and was panicking because she had no backbone. Now Xie Leikun suddenly understood why Xiao Yu hesitated to speak yesterday.

Sometimes it’s not a good thing for children to be too opinionated!

Xiao Xuetang knew that his second uncle was really concerned about him, so he let out a little, "Xiao Yi is in prison, it may be difficult for him to get out, but the regent can protect the other people in the mansion anyway, but my brother's position as the crown prince may be difficult to protect."

If this crisis is successfully resolved, Xiao Yu will probably be the one most implicated.

But Xie Leifeng was more concerned about something else...

Xie Leifeng was slow to react for a while before he finally realized something was wrong: "I heard that the Regent is cruel and notoriously unkind. How could he help us?"

Xiao Xuetang felt inexplicably guilty. Under her uncle's sharp gaze, she stumbled to explain, "Because Xiao Yi has something that the Regent is interested in, I promised him that I would get it. This is also the condition of my exchange with the Regent."

Xie Leifeng frowned and was about to speak when he suddenly saw Tianshu beside Lin Xun rushing over with bad news...

Something happened to Lin Xun!

……

When Emperor Yonghui recovered a little, he was forced to attend court.

As soon as the court started, the people below started arguing about the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion.

Some people accused the Inspection Office of abusing its power for personal gain and detaining a third-rank military marquis for no reason, saying that this was disrespectful and they wanted to punish Qi Yusheng.

Qi Yusheng was shot in the knee...

Oh, these old fools knew clearly that it was Lin Xun's idea to investigate the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, but none of them dared to offend the Regent. They just took advantage of the weak point in the Inspection Office, right?

Some people also said that the remnants of the Tianxuan Sect had revived, and in order to avoid the same mistake as before, the emperor should let the Jingzhao Prefecture intervene and conduct a thorough investigation; others recommended that the clan affairs office should investigate, after all, Marquis Wu'an had a title, and the Jingzhao Prefecture only handled ordinary cases and had no right to detain nobles like Marquis Yong'an.

The Shangshu of Jingzhao Prefecture is the prince's man; as for the Zongren Palace, it is composed of old ministers from the clan who tend to be conservative and support Lin Shaoshu, the son of Emperor Yonghui's legitimate wife.

In the past, in order to avoid suspicion, Lin Shaoshu seldom interacted with the clan affairs office, but now that things had come to this, there was no point in Lin Shaoshu hiding it any longer.

In any case, Lin Shaoshu and the Eastern Palace are bound to fall out in order to gain the right to try Xiao Yi. Whoever can take control of the Marquis' Mansion first and obtain the secret letter hidden by Xiao Yi will have an absolute advantage in this battle for the throne.

Emperor Yonghui felt dizzy and confused by their noise, and suddenly felt that he would rather be sick.

The two sides argued endlessly, and Emperor Yonghui himself was unable to make a decision. He subconsciously looked to the right and asked, "Huai Zhang, what do you think about this?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that the seat where Lin Xun was sitting was empty!
