"Father~" Yi'an ran over with a smile and called out sweetly.

Emperor Yin De saw that there was a lot of sweat on her forehead, so he took out a handkerchief and gently wiped it for her, "You are already sweating, why don't you stop?"

Yi An said seriously, "An An is not as good at training as the emperor brother. You must be more diligent and cannot slack off."

Emperor Yin De squatted in front of her and looked at her serious look. Who would have thought that the little girl who used to like to act coquettishly towards him would now be so interested in archery.

Really grown up.

The words Su Qingyao said yesterday made him sober up. If he doubted his daughter based on just one word, he was afraid that she would never smile at him again.

"You are not in a hurry if you want to practice. At this moment, my father has brought you some iced fruits. Why don't you take a rest first?" Emperor Yin De spoke with the two children in a thoughtful manner.

"Okay, thank you father." The two said in unison.

Iced fruit can only be eaten in summer, and the two children were very happy.

Emperor Yin De asked the young eunuchs to put the fruits on the stone table outside, just as Su Qingyao and Hui Zhaoyuan came out holding Cheng Jue and Yun Shu.

Yun Shu had been playing at Ji's house these days and hadn't been hugged by Emperor Yin De for a long time. When her son saw his father, he leaned forward and wanted to get into his arms.

Emperor Yin De took her over naturally, held her in his arms and teased her.

The adults and children gathered together to eat fruits, which was very lively.

Suddenly Li Fuhai bowed in and said something in Emperor Yin De's ear.

Emperor Yinde's face was a little gloomy, and Su Qingyao saw the situation and held Yun Shu in her arms.

"Yao'er, come with me."

Hearing this, Su Qingyao handed Yun Shu to Hui Zhaoyuan and followed Emperor Yin De to his residence.

Some officials were waiting outside, the same officials Su Qingyao had seen yesterday, who were here to plead guilty.

When the officials saw Emperor Yin De approaching, they quickly saluted and said hello.

Emperor Yinde quietly ordered them to go in and talk.

In the hall, Emperor Yinde sat at the top, and Su Qingyao stood next to him.

"Your Majesty, this is the confession of your Majesty's assassin. Please read it." The leading official raised the memorial high above his head and said to Emperor Yinde.

"Bring it up."

After receiving Emperor Yinde's instructions, Li Fuhai quickly took the confession and presented it to Emperor Yinde respectfully.

Emperor Yinde only glanced at it, then he grasped the testimony a few times and threw it down, "Is this the result of the interrogation by the ministers all night? This person and the Ji family are strong rivals in the business world? Why did you assassinate me? Why do you look so similar to the eldest princess?"

Emperor Yin De's tone was cold, and no one dared to answer the question.

After a long time, the official who had just handed over the memorial said tremblingly, "Maybe it's... a coincidence."

Boom! With a bang, a teacup hit his forehead. Blood flowed out, but he didn't dare to wipe it away. He just kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

"Calm down your anger? If you dare to deal with me again, I will kill your heads immediately. I said that I will give up my merits. It seems that you really don't want this life, right?"

Emperor Yinde's eyes at this moment showed not only anger, but also disappointment towards these ministers.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

Everyone kowtowed, and Emperor Yinde's anger remained unabated.

"Come here, please immediately send people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple to come to Jiangnan to see me. I want to see if there is anyone who can try this case?"

"My slave obeys the order." Li Fuhai bowed in agreement and went to deliver the order.

"Still standing here? Get out and kneel!" Emperor Yin De shouted angrily again, and the officials all retreated with their heads lowered in fear.

Su Qingyao and Emperor Yinde were the only ones left in the hall for a while. Su Qingyao picked up the confession and put it respectfully on the table next to Emperor Yinde.

"Your Majesty, calm down, I will make you a cup of tea." Su Qingyao was about to walk out after saying that, but she didn't expect Emperor Yin De to grab her arm.

Emperor Yinde exerted his strength, and Su Qingyao sat on his lap and hugged his neck, "Is there something on your mind, husband?"

"Yao'er, I want to thank you." Emperor Yinde put his arms around Su Qingyao's waist and leaned into her ear, speaking softly and seriously.

Su Qingyao understood. He was talking about Yi'an.

"These are what I should do. Compared with Sister Qin's desperate efforts to save His Majesty, I feel that what I have done is insignificant."

"You helped me win back Hui Zhaoyuan and An An, or else..."

"Your Majesty's Holy Ming." Su Qingyao smiled sweetly at Emperor Yinde, "I am thinking the same thing as Sister Hui. I just hope that this matter will come to an end soon, otherwise it will always be a knot in my heart. I saw that yesterday When I was in person, I really couldn't believe that there was someone who looked like this, which shows that the person behind this also put a lot of thought into it."

Emperor Yinde nodded lightly when he heard this. This was what he was thinking.

"Yao'er is becoming more and more understanding of my thoughts."

Su Qingyao took advantage of the situation and said, "Then I punished Qiao Cairen. I wonder if this is His Majesty's intention?"

Emperor Yinde has already heard about this, so naturally he won't blame Su Qingyao, "As an assistant in charge of the Sixth Palace, you still have some rights. Besides, Mrs. Qiao was really unruly yesterday and broke all the rules. This is a small punishment. That’s what it should be.”

"If I can't find any clues anymore, I have to check her out."

Su Qingyao shook her head, "I don't think she has the guts."

This is what Emperor Yinde thought. The Qiao family has always been loyal.

"By the way, Your Majesty, how is Sister Qin?" Su Qingyao also asked cautiously when mentioning Beauty Qin.

"The imperial doctor is guarding him. There is no danger to his life for the time being."

Su Qingyao didn't know whether this was good news or bad news. She just hoped that Qin Cairen could wake up soon.

"Your Majesty should be busy with something else. I should go see Sister Qin."

Su Qingyao said, blessing Emperor Yinde's body, and went to guard Qin Meiren's bed.

After a while, Gu Wenkang hurriedly walked in, showed all the courtesy to Emperor Yinde, and then asked, "Your Majesty, I want to know why the secret guards were not allowed to intervene in this matter, but instead the officials in the capital were asked Are you coming?"

Just now outside, Gu Wenkang heard Li Fuhai talk about this, and for a moment he didn't know what Emperor Yin De meant.

Emperor Yinde picked up a cup of tea, took a few sips, raised his eyes and asked, "How many people are there in my secret guards? How many officials are there in the court? They count on my secret guards for everything, so I still need more What do all these ministers do?”

Emperor Yinde stood up, patted Gu Wenkang on the shoulder, and motioned for him to take a seat, "During my patrol, I have not only seen honest and efficient officials like Liu Xun, but also these officials who are perfunctory in their duties. I asked the people in the capital to The officials came here just to remind local officials not to think that just because they are local officials, they are no longer officials of the imperial court. With the salary from the imperial court, they must work honestly for me and the imperial court."
