When the news of Dali Temple spread to the palace, those who were lucky enough to stand in the forefront of the Great Court Assembly were all in the study of Fengxiang Palace.They are euphemistically persuading Emperor Changping to erase the traces of the former emperor as soon as possible.

It can not only speed up the quelling of public grievances, but also prevent unworthy descendants of the Ji family from appearing in the future. When the situation is getting weaker, some people deliberately use the evil things that the deposed emperor did to shake the hearts of the people.

Emperor Changping obviously didn't want to pay attention to these people.

He lowered his head to play with the ice dragon jade pendant on his waist, his eyes were full of obscurity that ordinary people could hardly distinguish.

Ji Xinxue secretly thought that the courtiers were impatient, so she turned her side and whispered to Yu Heng openly, "Brother is coming back soon."

It has been more than two months since Ji Jingyu got married in June and brought Xiao Ning back to Northern Xinjiang to worship his father and aunt.

Earlier, when he was still hesitating whether to pass the throne to Ji Jingyu, Emperor Changping was still willing to let Ji Jingyu go to the fiefdom to practice.After completely severing this idea, he instead told Ji Jingyu clearly that before the official canonization of the crown prince, Ji Jingyu, as the eldest son and the only adult prince in the eyes of the people, must stay in Chang'an.

Allowing Ji Jingyu to bring Xiao Ning back to Northern Xinjiang is already Emperor Changping's intention to pamper the eldest son. He is very satisfied with his daughter-in-law's performance, and it is impossible to allow them to stay outside for too long.

Yu Heng's heart moved slightly, and he took Ji Xinxue's hand under the cover of his wide sleeves, leaving messy strokes in the palm lines that only they could comprehend.

'Gyeongju'

Ji Xinxue subconsciously tightened her fingers, grabbing the culprit that disturbed him, and the slightly rounded eye ends curved into happy arcs.

Qingzhou, the fiefdom of the elder sister.Princess Huai'an's mansion, where the eldest sister lived for nearly two years, is a good place.

The most important thing is that although Gyeongju is not in Gyeonggi-do, it is in Guannai-do, but it is very close to Chang'an.It only takes five days to travel from Chang'an to Gyeongju with a fast pace.

The temple name of the first emperor has been completely abolished, and sooner or later it will be erased.The aristocratic family made three rounds of confessions, the evidence of the crime was conclusive, and there was no possibility of turning over.

Ji Jingyu will arrive in Chang'an in a few days.

So... They sneaked out to play for ten days and a half months, should there be no problem?

Ji Xinxue secretly thought about the route from Chang'an to Gyeongju, spread out his grasped hand, and drew inexplicable lines like a sudden lightning bolt.

However, Yu Heng seemed to have a wonderful telepathy with Ji Xinxue, and immediately understood what Ji Xinxue meant, and moved his backhand along Ji Xinxue's fingertips to his wrist.

Ji Jingrou, who was standing not far behind Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng, witnessed the distance between the two of them gradually disappearing, looked away melancholy, and was facing the old face of Si Kong, who was smiling like a fox.

Her gaze rested on Sikong's faintly glowing head for a moment, and she decided not to waste any more time meeting Sikong's grandson.

I heard that Xie Langjun has been steady since he was a child, and looks like Sikong in every way.

Bald Fox, tsk.

Ji Jingrou looked away again, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught Ji Mingtong and Ji Cheng who were clinging to each other. His slightly tired eyelids immediately tightened, and even his heart beat more vigorously than before.

How dare they...

Ji Jingrou stared at the two of them intently for a long while, her gaze almost turned into reality but failed to distract them even for a moment.

Relying on the courtiers in front of them, the two dared not make any big moves, let alone turn around for no reason, and Emperor Changping didn't bother to pay attention to them, chasing and stepping on each other's shadow under Ji Jingrou's gaze.

Unknowingly, he chased from the easternmost to the westernmost, pushed in a circle to the door, passed by Ji Jingrou, and ran towards the courtier who was focusing all his attention on Emperor Changping without looking back. .

Ji Jingrou couldn't bear it anymore and closed his eyes.

They turned out to be just stepping on shadows? !

Not only did he not have any shady secrets under his wide sleeves like Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng in the front right, but there was a satisfying light flowing from the corners of his eyes and brows.The more they fought, the more they wanted to win and lose, and their eyes were full of unyielding light.

After thinking about it, the only thing that can make her eyes feel comfortable is Changping Emperor's face that has hardly changed in the past ten years.

Ji Jingrou sighed melancholy again.

Staring at such an extraordinary handsome man like Aye every day, wouldn't it be impossible for her to find a concubine who caught her eye?

Song Nian quietly grabbed Ji Mingtong and Ji Cheng who were about to bump into the backs of the courtiers. His unstoppable pace seemed to have been measured in advance, and he just stopped at a position that could block Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng.

"Your Majesty, the prince of Qinghe County, General Mo, and General Habayashi Wei are asking to see you."

The three walked into the study one by one, bringing a bloody smell that was hard to ignore.

After most people looked at them, their eyes were on the hands of Prince Qinghe.Those with weak concentration subconsciously took half a step back and could only lower their heads to cover up the disgust in their eyes.

The Prince of Qinghe County has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so he is not pampered.The bony hands are as slender and slender as most royal princes, but unfortunately, there are calluses and scars that spoil the beauty.Tell others plainly that this is the hand of a pair of warriors.

However, the original material and color of the hands cannot be seen, and the rags are mixed with the smell of sweat and blood. The hands of King Qinghe can be called catkins, and they are pitiable existences.

Prince Qinghe County used the shortest words to describe the farce in Dali Temple.

"The sinners of the aristocratic family wrote a book in blood, accusing the king of Xianglin County of collaborating with the enemy and traitorous to the country."

"Huh?" Emperor Changping's eyes rested on the palm of Prince Qinghe County's palm for a moment, and he said casually, "Bring the sinner's blood book to all the ministers to read."

Jing Zhe pretended not to notice that Emperor Changping took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands for no reason, and strode towards Prince Qinghe.Instead of Song Nian, who was by the Prince's son of Qinghe County, he distributed the almost shapeless blood book to the courtiers.

Whoever touches something dirty will not be allowed near His Majesty's body for at least two days.

Compared to him, His Majesty is more used to Songnian being by his side.

Sensing Jing Zhe's gaze, Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue took half a step back neatly, honestly expressing their resistance to the blood book.

dirty.

Ji Jingrou finally found the meaning of her presence in the study, and strode towards Jingzhe.

Ji Mingtong and Ji Cheng jumped over the aggressive Ji Jingrou in the blink of an eye, rushed to Jing Zhe first, and easily tore the already rotten fabric to shreds.

The two were stunned, looked at each other in disbelief, and said in unison, "Why do you..."

"Shut up!" Ji Jingrou squeezed into the middle of the two very presciently, carefully picked up a blood book from Jing Zhe's hand, endured the disgusting smell and carefully studied the almost indistinguishable handwriting.

General Habayashi put down the wooden box he was holding in his arms, and said in a deep voice, "This is the evidence that Habayashi found from the place mentioned by the criminal."

He never imagined that even the first emperor's temple title would be abolished, and the aristocratic family would make such a big commotion.Afraid of being angered by Emperor Changping, he lowered his head firmly, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.

The courtiers exchanged glances quietly, and no one was willing to speak easily.

Princess Huai'an was married for half a year, and King Ling was married for more than two months. Emperor Changping's love for his son-in-law and daughter-in-law is obvious to all.However, neither the king of Yuanbei County nor the head of Yanning County was the spouse chosen by Emperor Changping himself for his children.

Only the king of Xianglin County... not to mention how it has been in recent years.In the 21st year of Yanguang, Emperor Changping agreed to the marriage proposal of Xianglin County King Tuo Qinghe County Prince's son.As long as there are Princess Huai'an, King Ling and others, there must also be the position of Prince Xianglin.

He is the first "sin-in-law" of Emperor Changping, and also the "sin-in-law" who has been with Emperor Changping for the longest time.

Even if His Highness the Fifth Highness regains his male body, he will request to complete the marriage contract in the Great Court.Emperor Changping was so angry that he kicked over the red sandalwood case that weighed a hundred catties, but he only placed two people under house arrest, and he still waited for the prince of Xianglin County to be kind to him.

In the past six months, the changes of Emperor Changping are obviously frightening.

First of all, the former Duke of Qi's mansion next to the Princess An's mansion was given to His Royal Highness as the Princess Anwu's mansion, without mentioning the matter of becoming a king at all.Whatever is bestowed on Concubine Ling on New Year's Day must be given to King Xianglin.

Concubine Ling has the dress of a prince and concubine, Prince Xianglin has a dress of a prince, and the prince's son-in-law, the prince of Yuanbei, is rewarded with red coral from the South China Sea.

Besides, how can someone who can stand here have no brains?

If the king of Xianglin County is really as written in the blood book, he has long been connected with the remnants of the previous dynasty.

He had countless chances to get rid of the suspicion after killing the Spirit King and the Fifth Highness countless times.Even Emperor Changping would not defend him.

The sound of knuckles hitting the imperial case was not loud, but it was very clear against the silence.

Emperor Changping's brows faded away, and he asked, "Zhuqing have read the blood book, what do you think?"

No one answered, and silence spread again.

Emperor Changping didn't make things difficult for them, but turned to look at Yu Heng who stood upright, "Does Feng Lang have anything to say?"

Before he could compare himself with the surrounding courtiers who wanted to bury their heads on their chests, Yu Heng, who stood out from the crowd, opened his mouth, and Situ suddenly shouted angrily, "I believe that the king of the county will not do such... wrong things. Please be aware of it, Your Majesty. Return Xianglin County King's innocence."

When those who were slower to react looked at Situ in surprise, the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Military Affairs, the King of Xinyang County and others had already echoed Situ's words.

Old man, don't think about focusing on the front.

Although Yu Heng was surprised by the unexpected trust of the courtiers, he would not change the original plan because of this, leaving hidden dangers.He bowed upright to Emperor Changping, "I am willing to confront the criminals in Dali Temple and prove my innocence."

The King of Xinyang gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty has a lot of things to do every day, how can there be extra time wasted on such sinful sinners?"

Although the aristocratic family's methods of spreading rumors among the people are clever, they cannot withstand repeated investigations.

At least everyone in the study knew that the culprits who caused Emperor Yanguang to be turned over and the temple name to be abolished were all in the prison of Dali Temple.

Based on this alone, they can conclude that the aristocratic family will never have a chance to stand up.

The king of Xinyang County couldn't help but watch the family continue to anger Changping Emperor regardless of the consequences.

His daughter is the first wife of the eldest son of the Qi family. The two have children and have a deep love for decades.

Not to mention outsiders, the king of Xinyang County does not believe that his daughter knows nothing about the evil things done by the family.

Ten years ago, at the end of the Yanguang Dynasty, the aristocratic family regained momentum, and the in-laws almost spread throughout the court.Not only the king of Xinyang County was afraid of being implicated by them because of his daughter and grandson, but the rest of the courtiers were even more afraid.

The king of Xinyang County is at least a royal family, and his status in the clan is extraordinary.Although the mind is not very bright occasionally, but the big details have never been lost.Even if you are implicated, you still have titles and affection to spend.

The courtiers didn't expect to keep the descendants of the aristocratic family in the family, but only hoped that the completely innocent people would not be implicated. More than Yu Heng and Ji Xinxue, they hoped that the sinners of the aristocratic family would die immediately, and no more troubles would be caused.

Emperor Changping neither wanted to see a sinner from a family who had been wallowing in the prison of Dali Temple for more than two months and tasted no better than a blood book, nor did he want to witness the madness of complete despair.

He pondered for a while pretending to hesitate, and finally agreed to the courtier's request, ordering Yu Heng to refute the content and physical evidence of the blood book first.

If there are details that Yu Heng cannot prove his innocence, then the sinners in the prison of Xuan Dali Temple will come to confront him.

Yu Heng, who had anticipated this day, certainly did not disappoint the courtiers and Emperor Changping.

Among the physical evidence is the correspondence between Yu Heng and the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Yu Heng transcribed the contents of the letters in the physical evidence on the spot, let the courtiers who like to study pen and ink compare the handwriting in their spare time, and asked Emperor Changping to allow him to fetch some unimportant documents.

Although the 'shape' of the three pens and inks is very similar, it is difficult to tell whether there is a difference.However, it is not difficult to find that in the physical evidence provided by the aristocratic family, the strokes of a certain word often appear stagnant or the way of writing suddenly changes.

Ji Xinxue took advantage of the situation and mentioned that two months ago, he and Yu Heng copied several volumes of scriptures for the late emperor, but an accident happened during the process of sending them to the imperial mausoleum. The scriptures copied by Yu Heng disappeared and have not been found so far.

The prince of Qinghe County, the prince of Xinyang County and many clans in the study can all prove that what Ji Xinxue said is true.

Because at the same time, they were also copying scriptures for the first emperor.These scriptures were first sent to Qinghe County Prince's Mansion, and then sent to the imperial mausoleum by the descendants of Qinghe County Prince's Mansion in person.

Most of the wooden boxes containing physical evidence are letters, and there are two wooden boxes placed side by side at the bottom.

The Crown Prince of Qinghe County opened the wooden box himself, and first took out a small gold seal engraved with the word "Xianglin". On the top, where the dragon's tail is easily overlooked, you can feel the unique mark inside.

Before Yu Heng could speak, Emperor Changping suddenly sneered, "Brother."

Mo Yao, who had been distracted in the open and aboveboard, and who had been pondering whether to take the tranquilizing medicine or the refreshing medicine for a long time, immediately came back to his senses.

Following the eyes of Emperor Changping, he saw the golden seal of the prince of Qinghe County in the hands of the prince, and his tone was calm. Take the dilapidated golden seal of the county king to the prisoner, see the general prisoner melt the golden seal, confirm that the dragon balls are the same, and recast the seal."

The so-called Dragon Ball is a mark left in the gold seal to prevent counterfeiting.In the gold seals of princes and county kings, the symbols are called dragon balls.In the gold seals of princesses, concubines, and princesses, the symbol is called phoenix gallbladder.

If the golden seal is melted down, it will definitely change Dragon Ball.

Yu Heng took out the brand-new golden seal of the county king from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Mo Yao, "The general, please witness the recasting of the golden seal by the general, and verify whether the Dragon Ball has changed."

The last piece of physical evidence provided by the family sinners in the prison of Dali Temple was something unexpected by Yu Heng.

Princess An's token.

Yu Heng has the same token in his hand.

This is the token that Yu Feng specially handed back to Yu Heng when Yu Feng begged Yu Heng to protect his family.

It's just that Emperor Wuning gave Tianwai Xuantie a token made for his beloved daughter, representing Princess An's unparalleled status in the Wuning Dynasty.

Yu Heng rubbed every dark pattern of the token carefully, and shook his head, "I have a token that is exactly the same as this token in my hand. I don't know which one is real and which one is fake."

He has the trust of Ashe and Emperor Changping, and even the courtiers are on his side because of their interests, so there is really no need to risk taking part in the family's gamble.

Maybe the token in his hand and the token that the aristocratic family took out as evidence of the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country in Princess An's House are all fake tokens.

If he guesses wrong, he will be in the game.

No need.

Emperor Changping casually looked at the tokens placed side by side.

"Let the general be the supervisor to melt them separately, find out which piece is the Tianwai Xuantie, and build another one for Fenglang..." His eyes turned around Ji Xinxue, and creases suddenly appeared on the stretched eyebrows, "Xiang The Token of Linjun King."

It's a pity that the rare Tianwai Xuantie cannot be used to create the seal of the Crown Princess.

The courtiers shouted His Majesty's wisdom.

His Majesty has just followed the public opinion and abolished the temple name of the late emperor, and his anger must be accumulated in his heart.

Through the previous self-certification of Xianglin County King, it has been confirmed that the so-called collaborating with the enemy and traitorous country is just a slander of the family.Why take the risk of angering His Majesty and hold on to the token?

Besides... not only His Majesty blatantly favors the Prince of Xianglin, His Highness the Fifth Highness also looks very 'kindly', Princess Baoding, Princess Jinming and Duke Ping have already rolled up their sleeves...

Before dark, there were two new imperial edicts from the palace that were passed on to the world.

The Qi family, Cui family, Zheng family, Chen family, Kang family, and Yu family have committed 36 serious crimes such as treason, immorality, and disrespect over the years.Order the Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, the Doctor Yushi, and the Minister of Dali Temple to submit the charges and punishments of their nine clans within ten days.

Today, there is the king of Xianglin County who is loyal to the country and treats the king with filial piety.
