In addition to making money from silk, there was another good news waiting for Xie Wei. After the Ministry of Punishment reported the case, the emperor called Duke Dingguo over and asked his uncle dissatisfied that the army currently in charge of the Yan family, in order to check and balance the Yan family, he would rise The command of the military guard was handed over to his uncle. Unexpectedly, his uncle was so dissatisfied that he even interfered in the water transportation. Duke Dingguo listened to the reprimand with fear, thinking that the Yan family was targeting him. After Duke Dingguo left, the emperor happily told the old eunuch that after this lesson, Duke Dingguo would definitely not dare to interfere in the selection of the prince. In order to silence the punishment department, he also gave the punishment department a sweet date. , exempted them from punishment for handling the rebellion case, and gave them awards.
Xue Shu was naturally annoyed when Jiang Xuening stole the limelight. In order to punish Jiang Xuening, she found her aunt and asked the Queen Mother to meet her classmates. On the way to see the Queen Mother, Jiang Xuening saw a little eunuch being punished. She recognized that the little eunuch was named Zheng Bao, and he would be a popular man in front of the emperor in the future, so she tried to save him. When Zheng Bao left, she turned around very quickly. He glanced at Jiang Xuening gratefully. After seeing the Empress Dowager, Xue Shu called her aunt, held the Empress Dowager's hand and chatted endlessly, leaving everyone kneeling there for a long time.
When everyone got up, the Queen Mother singled out Jiang Xuening again, hoping to embarrass her in public, but Jiang Xuening's answer was reasonable, because the Queen Mother knew that Jiang Xuening and Yan Lin were good, so she didn't embarrass her too much. At this time, someone pretended to be the emperor and sent a jade Ruyi to the Queen Mother. Seeing the words Yu Ruyi, the Queen Mother was so angry that she broke the jade Ruyi in half and ordered people to start an investigation. This incident also affected Jiang Xuening and others. When investigating the matter, Jiang Xuening and others knelt outside and waited. Because they knelt for too long, Bao Ling couldn't hold on anymore. Jiang Xuening stood up to speak for them. The grandma in charge Xue Shu did not agree at first, but when she saw the emperor approaching, she hurriedly interceded for everyone, and then everyone was allowed to sit aside and wait.
Because of that Yu Ruyi, the Empress Dowager was frightened and sick, which made the Emperor very angry. Ding Guogong suspected that the matter was related to Xie Wei, so the Emperor accepted his suggestion and decided to test Xie Wei. Xie Wei immediately guessed that it was Gong Yi Cheng who was responsible for Yu Ruyi's incident. Therefore, after meeting the emperor, he expressed his views realistically. He suspected that it was King Pingnan who was deliberately creating chaos in the capital. He also suggested that the emperor should not be too public, so as not to cause uneasiness to the people. After Xie Wei left, Duke Dingguo came out from behind. Judging from Xie Wei's answer just now, he and the emperor both believed that this matter should be discussed with Xie Wei. Nothing to do.
Jiang Xuening and others chatted and wondered why the Queen Mother was so angry. Bao Ling explained to everyone that King Pingnan entered the palace and because he could not find the prince, he arrested 300 little boys in the capital who were as old as the prince. He got up and wanted to force the prince to come forward, otherwise he would kill all three hundred people. Later, the eldest son of the Xue family, Xue Dingfei, stood up and took the initiative to pretend to be the prince. But even so, King Pingnan still ordered that the three hundred people be killed. All the boys were killed. After the prince succeeded to the throne, he buried the three hundred people together and erected a monument named Zhongyi Tomb. The jade Ruyi that the Queen Mother broke today had those three words written on it, but Jiang Xuening thought that if Ruyi Ling said that the Queen Mother should pity those people and not break the jade Ruyi in anger, so she felt that there must be something fishy here.
Xie Wei saw that Jiang Xuening's piano skills were too poor, so he took her home to teach her alone. When Jiang Xuening was learning the piano, he saw a kitten running in, so he happily ran over and picked it up, but Xie Wei heard The cat meowed, and he fell into the terrifying scene of finding a wild cat among the dead. When Jiang Xuening picked up the cat, he beat the cat to the ground. In order to cover up his gaffe, he also chased Jiang Xuening away. Got out. Jiang Xuening didn't understand why Xie Wei was good and bad to her. She was feeling depressed when she accidentally saw the kitten again. She was about to leave with the kitten in her arms when she suddenly heard Xie Wei secretly talking to someone about Yu Ruyi. After listening to their conversation, Jiang Xuening found out that this matter was related to Xie Wei. She was surprised when the kitten suddenly meowed. Xie Wei found out that someone was eavesdropping, and suddenly rushed over and put the dagger to Jiang Xuening on the neck.
