After the eldest daughter was reborn, the whole family knelt down and begged for forgiveness
Chapter 219: Court Turbulence, All That Has Happened
The eunuch beside him reminded awkwardly: "Your Majesty, the prince asked for leave today, saying that he wanted to avoid suspicion in this matter."
Emperor Yonghui hadn't reacted yet: "Avoid suspicion? What suspicion is he avoiding?!"
The eunuch didn't know whether he should mention those rumors in front of the emperor...
Rumor has it that Marquis Yong'an was imprisoned because he offended the Regent.
The reason why the Regent did this was to vent the anger of the eldest daughter of the Xiao family.
It was said that the eldest daughter of the Xiao family was extremely beautiful, and even the regent, who had never been interested in women, was tempted by her and was willing to risk his life for her.
The eldest daughter of the Xiao family broke off her engagement with the third prince not long ago.
What is this all about!
The eunuch lowered his voice and repeated what was said briefly. Emperor Yonghui thought that he was not well yet and was just hallucinating.
Lin Xun and that little girl Xiao Xuetang?
When did this happen? And no matter how you look at it, these two are not on the same page...
"Your Majesty..."
"Father?"
Just as Emperor Yonghui was shocked by Lin Xun's gossip, the arguing ministers below almost started fighting, waiting for Emperor Yonghui to make the decision.
Emperor Yonghui frowned slightly, and after a moment's silence, he said, "How about this, the case of Marquis Yong'an will be handed over to the Jingzhao Prefecture's Imperial Clan Court and the Imperial Court for joint trial."
Emperor Yonghui was very fair and did not favor any side.
In other words, if you want to gain control of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, it depends on the abilities of all parties!
Wang Xian and Lin Shaoshu looked at each other with unfriendly eyes...
After the court was dismissed, Emperor Yonghui sent someone to summon Lin Xun to the palace.
He wanted to ask what the relationship between Lin Xun and the little girl from the Xiao family was, and what crime Xiao Yi, the Marquis of Yong'an, had committed.
He knew Qi Yusheng was definitely not the type to act rashly before the charges were established. This time, without Lin Xun's support behind him, he was not so bold.
But the eunuchs came back and forth saying that the regent was ill and it was quite serious.
"I don't know about his physical condition. When he was shot by two arrows in the northern border, he was able to travel day and night to return to Kyoto. What kind of illness could make him so sick that he can't attend court? It must be an excuse. I..."
Emperor Yonghui said this casually, and then his expression suddenly changed as if he thought of something!
"Quick, let Lu Zizhen go to the palace immediately. No... I will go myself."
Jiang Yinghe had been with Emperor Yonghui for many years and knew that Emperor Yonghui cared more about Lin Xun's health than outsiders imagined. He did not dare to delay and had someone prepare a sedan chair and went to the Regent's Palace secretly.
……
Here, as soon as Tianshu came over, he hurriedly asked Xiao Xuetang what happened to his prince in Litangju last night, and why he vomited blood as soon as he returned!
At dinner yesterday, Tianshu and Hanguang helped Qi Yusheng deal with matters at the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
Three people were taken away from the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion at once, and each of the three members of this family had multiple identities and were involved in different cases. The Third Prince and the Eastern Palace were eyeing them covetously, so Qi Yusheng was now very busy.
Hearing that Lin Xun vomited blood, Xie Leifeng was the first to be dumbfounded, and hurriedly said: "I only exchanged a few moves with the prince, and he was not injured."
Xiao Xuetang's eyelids also jumped, and he subconsciously said, "We had dinner together yesterday, I can guarantee that there was absolutely no poison in the food!"
Xiao Xuetang tried to think back for a while. She shouldn't have accidentally left any poison behind for Lin Xun to eat.
During this period, in addition to studying perfumes and cosmetics, Xiao Xuetang had a new hobby, which was studying poisons. She was surprised to find that she had an amazing talent in developing poisons, and she enjoyed it very much, but she was very careful not to let anyone accidentally touch the poisons.
Especially since Litangju temporarily raised a naughty little fellow, Xiao Xuetang became more careful...
Tianshu held his forehead helplessly and said, "I mean, did anything special happen yesterday?"
Otherwise, the master's emotions wouldn't fluctuate so much...
"ah."
Xiao Xuetang let out a low cry as if he had thought of something. Everyone looked at Xiao Xuetang. Xiao Xuetang suddenly seemed to have thought of something and clapped his hands, saying, "I remember, he was scratched by a cat!"
The regent king shouldn't be that fragile...right?
Tianshu...
"It's hard to explain this in a short time. Miss Xiao, please come with me to the palace!"
Tianshu insisted on taking Xiao Xuetang to the palace without any explanation. Xie Leifeng just felt that the relationship between Xiao Xuetang and Lin Xun was a little weird, and wanted to follow them, but was stopped by Tianshu.
"Thank you, Second Master. The prince's illness is a royal secret. Please don't spread it. Let's pretend nothing happened today."
Tianshu looked serious, and Xie Leifeng felt that if he wasn't Xiao Xuetang's uncle, this guy would probably kill her to silence her.
However, the Regent has always been invincible on the battlefield and is the undisputed god of war of Dayin. I have never heard of any old illness that he has.
If word got out, especially when envoys from various countries, especially those from Southern Xinjiang, were about to arrive in Kyoto, the regent's health would be unsettling. The fear was that those people in Southern Xinjiang would have other ideas.
But what does this have to do with royal secrecy?
For a moment, many doubts flashed through Xie Leifeng's mind. When he came to his senses, he found that Tianshu and Xiao Xuetang were gone, and there was only a little fat cat licking its paws left in the yard.
"This cat is quite fat. Xuetang actually got another cat. It seems that she has let go of the past..."
When Xiao Xuetang was young, she picked up a little black cat and raised it. However, the little black cat was abused to death in front of the seven-year-old Xiao Xuetang.
Xiao Xuetang was ill for half a month because of this incident. At that time, the usually calm master of the Xie family was so angry that he almost demolished the mansion...
Later, Xiao Xuetang, who had always loved small animals, never touched those furry little animals again.
Thinking of those past events, Xie Leifeng sighed in her heart, fortunately this child was stronger than she thought.
Xie Leifeng found the kitten licking its paws interesting and wanted to tease the tiger-striped kitten, but he ended up being scratched without even touching a single hair.
The fat little cat was very agile and jumped directly onto the eaves and disappeared without a trace.
Thank you Leifeng...
He covered his hands and hissed, then turned around and saw Xiao Yu coming over. He looked at him with a pair of dark eyes and asked, "Uncle, there was another secret behind Xiao Hei's death. Do you know that?"
In just one night, his handsome nephew seemed like a different person. His usually well-dressed brocade robe was wrinkled, and his eyes were bloodshot, as if he had not slept all night.
"You scared me to death, what happened to you?"
Xie Leifeng patted his chest and said, "Ah, you said you and Tangtang picked up that little black cat?"
"At that time, my brother was afraid that Tangtang would be stressed and worried that you would be sad, so he didn't let us mention it. But now it seems that there is nothing we can't say..."
Xie Leifeng said, "The little black cat was scalded to death by that old hag from the Xiao family...your good grandmother, right in front of Tangtang."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yu's body shook and he almost fainted!
Before leaving Litangju last night, Qiyue quietly found him and told him some of the things that happened in the past...
