after i found out my new wife was a man

After Xie Shuhan returned to the imperial city, he did not go to Marquis Wu'an Mansion - but he went straight to He Yiqing's residence, the Prince's Mansion.

Today, there are people coming and going in the mansion, Xie Hou woke up, hugged his wife and young son back to the mansion, Xu Yaoling followed Xuan Yi and left, two more soldiers were rescued, and two more could barely go to the ground, The remaining one is still in a coma.

"What do you think when things are at this point?"

In the courtyard, Xie Shuhan was sitting on one side, and opposite were Xie Ling and He Yiqing. The surprise of the first meeting had passed, and there was no more greetings, and they all had solemn faces.

"The emperor has a firm attitude and wants to close the case immediately, without giving others a chance to find out. The wolf's heart is clear, and it is not easy to change the status quo." It was Xie Lingyu who spoke, "There are only two possibilities. One is for the emperor to take it back. Fate, the second is—”

He Yiqing's voice was harsh: "—to force him to take back his life."

Xie Shuhan nodded slightly: "That's right, you must have your own power to become a prince, and the same goes for the Xie family after a hundred years. Are these enough?"

Xie Ling and He Yiqing looked at each other, then slowly shook their heads: "It might be useful, but if the emperor is determined not to, there is probably nothing to do."

Xie Shuhan smiled softly, his personality has always been indifferent, but now he became angry: "How many people are the emperor's confidantes? Who might do this for him?"

Before Xie Ling and the two could reply, Xie Shuhan continued to speak.

"One of his confidants, Eunuch Yuan, has a fierce nature, but on the tenth day of every month, he sends people to a farmer's home in Kang'an Village outside the city to deliver money and food. His family name is Yuan, and he is Yuan's parents and brothers before he entered the palace. There is a young son who is adopted under the name of 'dead brother'."

——But even though he was doing all kinds of tricks, and even asked his family members to change their surnames, and how concealed he was, he was still caught.

How could this news not be surprising, but after the joy, He Yiqing hesitated to speak: "But even if he has witness evidence, he is only a eunuch after all, so how can he be famous?"

Xie Shuhan smiled slowly, with a ruthless expression between his eyebrows and eyes: "This is what you are going to do, I want you to persuade someone." He paused here, and said something unexpected Name: "Emperor's biological mother, thank you Empress Dowager!"

——It's not easy.

But after hesitating, He Yiqing immediately responded: "I will definitely do my best."

Xie Shuhan let out a breath slowly, and continued to speak: "The Xie family can stand for a hundred years, even if they never formed a clique for personal gain, but there is still power in the court after all, and my brother still needs to recover from his injuries. I will leave this matter to Xie Ling and I to get through. "

"Besides, there is another force that should be used." Xie Ling and Yingxia seemed to have thought of something, and said hesitantly, "People in the imperial city, poor scholars... If you incite them a little, the hearts of the people will be so , the emperor will also be driven to a corner."

"That requires careful planning..."

As the breeze blew, the clothes of the three people in the court fluttered, only the sound of discussions continued.

-------

Although there is already a general charter, there is not much time left for everyone, and it must be completely reversed before Emperor Jingren can settle the matter.

Two days later, late at night, at the Palace of Compassion and Peace.

Ever since He Yiqing returned to his identity, this old man seemed to understand something, he stayed in the palace and never went out again, nor did he see anyone.Just sitting in the small Buddhist hall of the Compassionate Peace Palace, eating fast and reciting Buddha, copying scriptures, and so on day after day.

The Buddhist hall was silent, only the Empress Dowager Xie knelt on the futon, above her head was a god Buddha without sorrow or happiness, and beside her was thick sandalwood.All of this looks exactly the same as in the past, only the letter raft tightly held by the Empress Dowager Xie and her more and more urgent chanting sound show some differences.

It's like a storm is coming.

After a long time, the sound of footsteps finally sounded in the ears of Empress Dowager Xie. The footsteps were not fast or slow, and finally stopped behind her.

He Yiqing broke the tranquility: "I came here late at night without invitation, and I hope the Empress Dowager will forgive me." He saluted as he spoke, and then the atmosphere became stagnant again, leaving only the beeping sound of burning candles.

"At this point...you don't want to call Aijia Grandma?" Queen Mother Xie's eyes were slightly red, but she asked such a sentence.

He Yiqing was slightly taken aback, not knowing what it was like in his heart: "Why don't you want to, I'm just afraid that if we meet today, you will never recognize me again in the future."

Empress Dowager Xie turned around with sad eyes.

The person in front of him was wearing a black robe, and his figure was elegant, but he was a real man!How could she... How could she treat him like a daughter and immerse her life in this palace for more than ten years?

He Yiqing looked at her, and said for a while, "It's not your fault."

In He Yiqing's heart, of course, even in the past ten years in the palace, this empress dowager is the only one who really loves him.This can only be said to be the impermanence of the world, so how could it be the fault of Empress Dowager Xie?

But Empress Dowager Xie didn't think so, she calmed down and said, "Is there something to do today?"

He Yiqing looked at her, but was straightforward: "I implore the Empress Dowager to request a thorough investigation into the ambush case of Ping Yanya in the court four days later!" He knelt on one knee, his back straight, like a permanent A bowstring that doesn't bend.

Empress Dowager Xie was so startled that she couldn't help taking a step back, her face suddenly changed: "What did you say?!"

"You don't know who is behind this matter," He Yiqing said in a firm voice, "For the sake of his own self-interest, the emperor has done everything he can, and he has determined that the Xie family has made great achievements and killed Zhongliang. The Xie family has endured it for decades. Now Hou The master is almost gone, can you bear it?"

Empress Dowager Xie lowered her eyes slightly and remained silent for a long time.

"After all, the Ai family's surname is Xie, so how can you not feel cold?" The Empress Dowager Xie sorted out her words, but she disagreed, "But the Ai family is not only the Xie family, but also the queen mother of a country! If you want to act like this, put the emperor on the throne. Where? Where is the Dagan community to be placed?"

"Even if he is the emperor, is it justified to kill my soldiers?" He Yiqing looked directly at her, "Do you still think that the emperor did this because he missed the empress too much? The culprit is the hypocritical Emperor Jing Ren!"

Empress Dowager Xie's pupils shrank slightly, and she could hardly believe what she heard.

He Yiqing breathed a sigh of relief: "Emperor Jingren is always hypocritical, don't you realize it?"

Empress Dowager Xie seemed to be still immersed in grief, she couldn't help but muttered "how could this be?", He Yiqing sighed, but didn't say anything more after all.

"Actually, no matter whether you agree or not, there will be a day when the truth will be revealed in the future." After a long time, He Yiqing continued, "The difference is only in the time. Even if you don't agree now, Emperor Jingren will always abdicate On that day, if the case is uncovered after I succeed to the throne, it will not be so simple!"

He Yiqing's voice was low, and no one could doubt the truth of his words: "At that time, you will no longer be the one who will sue in the palace, and the world will know that there is an eunuch who sued the emperor, and the evidence he produced This is true, and I will agree to reverse the case, and from now on in the history books, Emperor Jingren will be placed in the same position as a generation of eunuchs in addition to being full of sins!"

——That being the case, do you have any reason to refuse?

He Yiqing stood up and looked at the Empress Dowager who was still in a daze, and suddenly realized that her temples were already gray, and she was indeed old.

They stood still in the Buddhist hall and faced each other silently until one side backed down and compromised, but this person was not He Yiqing.
