458: Throw Yourself Into the Frying Pan

"Stealing official grain, bribing officials, and raising private soldiers, any one of them is a capital crime."

Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he couldn't run away, "Prince Yi has accumulated so many connections every day, is there no one in the court to plead for him?"

"Originally, there were some, but Shang Junyan got evidence that Prince Yi had colluded with officials in Yuning, Cangnan, and Zongping, and Mu Xing found the granary. With the evidence, who would dare to plead for him?" Yan Junchu said with a sneer on his face, and the sarcasm in his eyes could not be hidden.

Su Xinyi heard this and said, "Whether it is the matter of the enclosure, the Jiang family, or the spirit writing, Prince Yi can find a way to get out, but he can't do these two things."

So the prince asked Shang Junyan to return to Beijing late in order to make a fatal blow, but he didn't expect that Lu Yunhua would appear later, which made them accidentally get the location of the granary.

Thinking of this, I will really thank Jie Jinglue.

Thinking of Jie Jinglue's avoidance, Su Xinyi couldn't help but smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Yan Junchu looked at Xinyi and asked.

Xinyi told the story and looked at His Highness and asked, "This is really an accidental achievement."

Yan Junchu thought of Jie Jinglue and couldn't help but smile, "Jie Jinglue is indeed innocent. Lu Yunhua is not really chasing him, but just wants to make trouble for Lu Minglin."

"If Lu Yunhua hands over the granary, can she get away?" Su Xinyi looked at His Highness and asked.

"The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped." Yan Junchu looked at Xinyi, "Although she has made meritorious contributions, what Lu Minglin and the Lu family have done in Fengpingwei for many years cannot be erased."

Su Xinyi nodded slightly, "Lu Minglin has followed King Yi for many years, and he must have done more than one or two things. It would be impossible without the help of the Lu family."

It can only be said that Lu Yunhua was lucky enough to seize this opportunity. At least she and her mother can save their lives, and the rest can only be discussed later.

If there is an amnesty, there may be a chance to become a commoner.

Su Xinyi can't help this, and she doesn't want to help.

Whether Lu Yunhua confronted Lu Minglin with the Jie Jinglüe, or Lu Minglin defended Prince Yi with his death, the Lu family would have to pay the price for their actions.

"Yes." Yan Junchu nodded lightly, "The decree will be issued soon."

"After so much trouble, there is finally a result. What about Suizhou?"

"Of course, the court will take over."

Su Xinyi understood that Prince Yi's Mansion would no longer exist in the future.

Before the incident at the Lantern Festival banquet came to a conclusion, His Majesty's decree was issued the next day. Prince Yi and his followers were sentenced to beheaded, the title of Prince Yi's Mansion was also taken back by the court, and the Princess of Yi and other female relatives were escorted to the border for exile, including Xu Yurong and Master Minghui.

As for Yan Qiongsi, Su Xinyi did not expect that the Queen Mother still pleaded for mercy. Although His Majesty did not exile Yan Qiongsi this time, Guangping County Prince Yan Xun was also implicated by this daughter and lost his title of county prince. Perhaps His Majesty was still angry and demoted Yan Xun to the gatekeeper of the imperial mausoleum and drove him out of the capital.

"How was Fu Yun dealt with?" Su Xinyi looked at Zhan Qiao and asked. After listening for a while, she did not hear about Fu Yun's outcome.

Zhan Qiao heard this and said, "His Royal Highness Prince Xiang pleaded for Fu Yun and knelt outside the Purple Palace for a day and a night, saying that although Fu Yun had a relationship with Prince Yi, he did not do anything that harmed the heaven and earth. The only thing he did was the incident in the enclosure, and it was Prince Xiang himself who suffered in the end. Prince Xiang himself did not pursue the matter and asked His Majesty to be lenient."

Su Xinyi:...

I never expected that the most infatuated person in the royal family was Prince Xiang.

I'm afraid Concubine Li will be so angry that she will vomit blood.

"What was the result?"

"Your Majesty demoted Fuyun to a maid, and she will never be able to be like a royal jade disc in her life, and she will not be able to give birth to royal children in this life." Zhan Qiao paused here, "According to my subordinates, King Yi wanted Fuyun to kill King Xiang, but Fuyun did not obey. He only told King Yi that it was difficult to kill King Xiang because there were too many people following him, so he changed it into a life-saving grace."

Su Xinyi was surprised, "So, Fuyun's life-saving grace is true."

Zhan Qiao smiled, "I guess so."

Su Xinyi chuckled, "It seems that Fuyun is also a smart person. Although he works for King Yi, he has left a way out for himself."

Zhan Qiao agreed very much, but King Xiang's eyes were just blurred, and he had to take rubble as pearls, which was also a matter of course.

In addition, those who made contributions in this incident were rewarded, such as Mu Xing finally being able to stand in the sun from his status of not being able to see the light, and because he ventured to Fengpingwei to get the location of the granary and made another contribution, he was conferred a hundred households by His Majesty and entered the Three Thousand Camp.

Mu Xing was born as a killer, and the Three Thousand Battalion was a pure cavalry patrol, which was just right for him to show his skills.

Su Xinyi was overjoyed, and it was a good result that Mu Xing's efforts were worth it.

Zhan Qiao was also very happy, "Mu Xing said he wanted to come and kowtow to the Crown Princess, but Lord Qin was in a hurry to get someone, so he let Mu Xing go first."

Su Xinyi was stunned at first, and then said, "Is Mu Xing under Qin Guansheng's command?"

"Yes."

Su Xinyi: ...

Seeing the Crown Princess's ambiguous expression, Zhan Qiao also laughed and said, "Mu Xing looked like he had no desire to live after knowing it, but now he has a proper official status, and he was sent out by you, so he has to hold his nose to avoid embarrassing you."

Su Xinyi said seriously, "Mu Xing's temperament is too casual, and Qin Guansheng is a person who doesn't tolerate any sand in his eyes, but it's a good thing to tighten his strings for him."

"What the Crown Princess said is that Cao Qing and I have agreed to go and congratulate Mu Xing tonight."

He Yihe, I'm afraid he wants to see a joke!

Mu Xing was a lonely man, so Su Xinyi was naturally happy that someone was willing to interact with him. He looked at Zhanqiao and said, "Then bring me a gift and tell him that he should be a good errand and wait until the guards in the capital are great." Bi, he can't embarrass me."

"Yes, I will definitely bring the message to you," Zhanqiao said.

With the words of the Crown Princess, Mu Xing would have to hold his nose and work as a cow and a horse in the Three Thousand Camp, which is funny when he thinks about it.

In addition to Mu Xing, the most eye-catching person in this case is the imperial envoy Shang Junyan. This time he uprooted King Yi and rectified the officialdom of Jiangnan despite the dangers. His Majesty valued him very much and made an exception to promote him to the official position. The assistant minister took over Ji Gang's errand.

Under Shang Junyan's halo, Su Yi's promotion to Qianhu and Chengxin School Captain did not attract much attention this time.

But Su Xinyi knew that the eldest brother had contributed a lot this time. Shang Junyan was able to rebuke Fang Qiu in the south of the Yangtze River, all because of the eldest brother. Being able to seal thousands of households this time would have caused an uproar on ordinary days, but now that Shang has With Jun Yan in front, her eldest brother was not so conspicuous.

Good.

Su Xinyi was happy. King Yi had arrived, and the hidden dangers of the Su family had been eliminated. Yan Qiongsi, who always jumped out and made people upset, went to guard the imperial mausoleum. Now life was really going well.

Su Xinyi was in a good mood. Yan Jun felt it as soon as he came back. Seeing the smile on Xinyi's eyes, he said, "So happy?"

Su Xinyi turned around when he heard this, "Your Highness, are you back so early today?"

Yan Junchu nodded, "With King Yi's matter settled, we can finally relax for a few days."

"This is really a happy thing." Su Xinyi said immediately.

"You know everything?"

"I called Zhan Qiao to ask."

Yan Junchu changed into his regular clothes and came out to talk to Xin Yi. Su Xinyi looked at him and asked, "How did the Yan Ling family arrange it?"

I forgot to ask this before.

Yan Junchu smiled and said, "Although Yan Ling didn't know about the dispute in Prince Yi's Mansion, what King Yi did was also influenced by the old King Yi. However, my father still tolerated it and ordered Yan Ling to return to Suizhou and rewarded him with fields. ”

Su Xinyi understood that Yan Ling could only be a wealthy farmer in the future, and he could not expect anything else.

Even though he was overthrown, he could still have such a result. It was because of His Majesty's mercy.

There was still a lot of discussion in the streets and alleys about King Yi's affairs, but the excitement in the palace was completely different.

Su Xinyi thought for a while, looked at the prince and asked: "Your Highness, what do you think will be the outcome of the Lantern Festival?"

"How's your investigation going?" Yan Junchu asked.

"Mama She is still investigating, and the news is intermittent. There were a lot of people that night, and it would be troublesome to find out everything." At this point, Su Xinyi looked at His Highness the Crown Prince, "Speaking of which, my father does not seem to have any interest in the Li family. What to do, the Li family had contact with King Yi about Li Ji's matter. Although the matter was not settled, the relationship must be very deep. "

Yan Junchu looked at Xin Yi and said, "I am too anxious to eat hot tofu, and Grand Master Li is ill in bed. How can my father kill them all at this time?"

Su Xinyi sighed quietly, "It's good to be older. Once you lie down on the bed, you won't have to worry about anything."

Hearing Xin Yi's deep sarcasm, Yan Junchu was amused and pinched her fingertips, "Are you angry?"

"So many people have been dealt with, and Yan Qiongsi's family has not benefited. Why do they have to turn a corner when they get to Grand Master Li? Without Grand Master Li's secret help, how could King Yi do so smoothly in the capital?" Su Xinyi didn't understand what His Majesty was thinking. What.

"After all, Taishi Li is a veteran of three dynasties. If he deals with Li Ji just because of his affairs, it will inevitably chill the courtiers."

Su Xinyi said: "The accounts of Li Ji's dealings with King Yi have already been laid out. Isn't this okay?"

"You also said that Li Ji did it."

Su Xinyi held her breath, sighed quietly, and then said: "The cunning rabbit has three burrows."

Yan Junchu was amused, "My father knew it in his heart, but when he first came to the throne, Taishi Li did make a lot of contributions, and the love between the emperor and his ministers was deeper."

Su Xinyi understands what His Highness means. In addition, Taishi Li is cautious in doing things. It is indeed Li Ji who did what happened to Li Ji. It cannot be proved that Taishi Li had a hand in it. Now that Mr. Li of the Li family has been expelled from the house again, Taishi Li is currently ill in bed. , no matter who looks at it, it feels very desolate.

This plot of mourning the soldiers is really well sung.

Su Xinyi is unwilling, why?

Just deal with what others should deal with, and just turn around when you get to the Li family?

"I'm afraid the Queen is feeling sad right now." Su Xinyi said slowly while looking at the prince.

Yan Junchu didn't take it seriously, "The Queen has been fighting with Concubine Li for many years, and she knows the situation of the Li family better than anyone else."

That means the queen is mentally prepared, but Xin Yi will inevitably feel unfair.

Looking at Xin Yi's expression, Yan Junchu smiled, "You think it's unfair?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "It's a bit difficult to calm down."

Yan Junchu said: "There are many things in this world that cannot be determined simply by fairness."

"Yes." Su Xinyi understood.

"So this is what happened to the Li family?"

"Not necessarily." Yan Junchu said.

Su Xinyi felt that His Highness must have a back-up plan. She smiled and said, "Then I'll wait for the good news."

Yan Junchu met Xin Yi's smile and looked at her with dark eyes, "Don't you want to ask me what I want to do?"

"Your Highness didn't say it, so it must be that the plan is not yet complete. Why should I rush to ask?"

Yan Junchu breathed a sigh of relief. Xinyi always understood him.

Indeed, his father hesitated about the Li family's affairs this time, which was not a pleasant thing for him, but he couldn't say that in front of Xinyi, lest she be even more sad.

Li Taishi was indeed a great help when his father first ascended the throne, and he made many contributions. His father was also a nostalgic person. In addition, Concubine Li and the mother and son of Prince Xiang, it would definitely not be possible to cut them off with one knife.

Besides, he always felt that his father kept Li Taishi not just because of the old feelings. As for what it was, he couldn't guess it now, so he could only wait and see.

In the blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival had passed for a few days. Su Xinyi had been staying in the East Palace safely, and soon the matter in the harem that day also had a result.

Because it involved Ji Yun and Zhu Chanyi, and the Queen was the mother-in-law of Princess Rong, so the evidence was even more conclusive.

What Su Xinyi didn't expect was that Pei Huiran was innocent.

"…Princess Wu was in a bad mood because of her father's matter. She was talking to Miss Pei Er at the time. When she saw Princess Rong, she took her over. Who knew that they had a dispute in a few words. Miss Pei Er was trying to persuade her, and she was standing in a bad position, so the lamp fell and hit her."

Su Xinyi didn't know what to say for a while. She was just a mean person.

"How is Miss Pei Er now? Is her face okay?" Su Xinyi looked at Madam She and asked.

"It's nothing serious. Just follow the doctor's instructions and take good care of her. After June, next year will be the same as before."

Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. A girl's face is very important."

"The Crown Princess is kind-hearted. You don't know that although Miss Pei Er is innocent, the people in Wu'an Marquis's Mansion may not be innocent."

"Hmm?" Su Xinyi looked at Nanny She, "Tell me in detail."

"The Crown Princess is right. This matter is indeed a joint effort by the wife of Wu'an Marquis and the Princess of Wu. The purpose is to send Miss Pei Er to Rong Wang's Mansion."

"But why did Ji Yun do this? What's the benefit for her? The Ji family has fallen, and she doesn't behave herself, but comes out to hurt others?" Su Xinyi couldn't figure out how Ji Yun's mind worked. Anyway, she didn't do anything that normal people did.

"According to Princess Wu, she overheard Princess Ruan Ming forcing the King of Wu to divorce her. Plus, she happened to meet Princess Rong when she was leaving the palace that day, and the two had a few words. Princess Wu wanted to take revenge on Princess Rong, and she and the wife of Marquis Wu'an hit it off."

Su Xinyi: ...

This guy is really stupid. He is willing to throw himself into the frying pan.
