Besides, Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan left the Imperial Study Room, and walked leisurely towards the exit of the palace.

At this time, the news that Xie Jingyan flew over the wall to the Yanping Palace and intercepted the imperial decree that Eunuch Yuan had read in the middle of was already spread, and all the civil and military officials and even the Yun family had heard about it.

All the civil and military officials were very convinced. They had never seen King Ling so good at seeking death. They were all waiting to hear the news that King Ling would be punished. But as they waited, something happened to Duke Du's palace.

Officials, "..."

One is more confused than the other.

There was a huge stir in Prince Ling's side. Prince Ling was not even treated by the emperor. Du Guogong's mansion was calm and he was suddenly imprisoned and directly sent to the death row of the Ministry of Punishment.

All civil and military officials, including the eldest prince and Xie Jingyin, suspected that they had no information.

How could Du Guogong's government commit any crime?

Although Du Guogong had no talent, all the military power he had obtained was robbed, and he had no real power in the court, which completely destroyed Du Guogong's prestige, but Du Guogong had a brother who had a prince-in-law, and he was suppressed by this brother Don't dare to do anything corrupt. Anyone in the civil or military dynasties can commit major crimes, and even Du Guogong can't.

But for such a duke who was not even greedy for ink, he was imprisoned by the Ministry of Punishment along with his whole family, and even the crown prince of Du Guogong who was punching and drinking with some incompetent family members in Deyue Tower. This is no longer a trivial matter.

For a time, all the officials were speculating about what Duke Du's palace had committed, and then the news spread like wildfire that the emperor had asked the Ministry of Punishment to retry the case of Prince Yanping.

The news is more unexpected than the last.

Officials, "...???"

Wasn't Prince Yanping's life saved by Prince Ling and the Yun family with gold medals to avoid death?

Why is there still a retrial?

In all their years as officials in the government, they have never seen a case with such twists and turns.

Everyone in the Yanping Palace was even more confused. They had long been mentally prepared to be demoted. Eunuch Yuan also came to the Yanping Palace with the emperor's imperial edict. Halfway through the announcement, Xie Jingyan came over and started directly from Eunuch Yuan without saying a word. He snatched the imperial edict away from his hands and took it away without giving King Yanping a chance to ask. Eunuch Yuan also followed the imperial edict and left the Yanping Palace.

Poor King Yanping wanted to pursue him and ask, but he was afraid of being said to be unscrupulous. This imperial decree was half good and half bad for the Yanping Palace. The good thing was that the imperial edict pardoned Prince Yanping's son, and the bad thing was that it took away the title of the Yanping Palace.

The entire capital knew that Prince Ling was looking for Prince Yanping's Mansion. Prince Ling's interception of the imperial edict would never harm Prince Yanping's Mansion. Prince Yanping could only wait patiently in the Mansion.

Waiting is called an anxiety.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is like being pressed into an iron pot and simmering over low heat.

When people stayed in the palace, news was passed to their ears one by one. When she heard that the emperor had asked the Ministry of Punishment to retrial Prince Yanping’s case impartially, Princess Yanping burst into tears instantly, and Prince Yanping’s eyes also turned red. On that day, Prince Yanping Kneeling outside the imperial study, all he asked for was a fair trial, but he knelt and fainted, and the emperor was unmoved. Now that the case was closed, why was there a retrial?

This requires a retrial. Will their son still go to jail in the Ministry of Punishment?

Should he go on his own initiative or wait for the people from the Criminal Department to come and take him into custody?

……

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of Prince Ling's Mansion.

After Xie Jingyan got off the carriage, he helped Shen Wan down. The gatekeeper looked at Xie Jingyan from head to toe several times.

The prince is still alive, he was not beaten to death by the emperor, and he was not even beaten to death.

very nice.

Manager Zhou heard the boy's report that Xie Jingyan was back and came over quickly. Seeing that Xie Jingyan was safe and sound, Manager Zhou was worried for a long time before letting go and said, "Your Majesty, please don't do such scary things in the future. Your Majesty scares us servants." Forget it, the princess is pregnant, so don’t worry."

Knowing that Manager Zhou was worried about him, Xie Jingyan said nothing and asked, "Where is Doctor Tao?"

Manager Zhou said, "Doctor Tao is in the pharmacy."

Xie Jingyan and Shen Wan went to the pharmacy to find Doctor Tao.

Doctor Tao was busy making ointment. When he saw Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan entering, Doctor Tao stopped what he was doing and asked, "Why did the prince and princess come to the pharmacy, but why do they feel uncomfortable?"

Xie Jingyan said nothing, and Shen Wan said, "I came to see Dr. Tao for help."

Doctor Tao was stunned for a moment and said, "How can I help the prince and princess?"

Shen Wan smiled and said, "Doctor Tao doesn't know something. The longevity lock you brought back to the capital is the biological flesh and blood of the eldest princess of Huyang and the eldest prince-in-law. The emperor asked that the person be brought back to the capital as soon as possible so that he can recognize his ancestor and return to the clan. , but the only people who have seen him are Dr. Tao and your son. In order to find him as soon as possible, we need your son to leave the capital with the prince and his son-in-law."

From Shen Wan's inquiry about the longevity lock, Dr. Tao knew that the longevity lock was not simple, but he did not expect that there were so many conspiracies and calculations behind the longevity lock. The noble man Tianhuang was living abroad and became the son of Orion.

Asking his son to follow him to find someone was more than a matter of words. Doctor Tao agreed on the spot.

Doctor Tao couldn't help but sigh. Ten years ago, he served as an imperial physician in the palace, and the rewards he received were not as much as these few months. He was so lucky that he could save anyone on the road, even the emperor's nephew. Who.

He didn't go back to take a look. His ancestral grave was definitely filled with smoke.

After leaving the pharmacy, Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan returned to Mo Yuxuan. Before they finished lunch, news came from the palace.

Xie Jingyan was picking up food for Shen Wan when Yin Shuang came in and said with twinkling eyes, "There was news from the palace that the old lady of Du Guogong's mansion was escorted into the palace. The Queen Mother interrogated her for plotting to murder the eldest princess of Huyang and secretly replacing the eldest princess of Huyang. Mrs. Du Guogong denied the matter of the princess's biological flesh and blood. In anger, the Queen Mother asked her nanny to slap Mrs. Du Guogong more than 20 times. The slaps made Mrs. Du Guogong's face swelled into a pig's head and several teeth were knocked out. Mrs. Du Guogong suffered Don’t stop, admit it all.”

There is no doubt that the old lady of Du Guogong's mansion will suffer.

Prince Yanping could not even be said to have killed the son of the eldest princess of Huyang, and the queen mother wanted him to pay with his life. What's more, the old lady of Du Guogong's mansion almost killed the eldest princess of Huyang, and also caused the eldest princess of Huyang to be separated from her biological flesh and blood for nineteen years. , the Queen Mother will definitely make Mrs. Du Guogong's life worse than death.

However, Mrs. Du Guogong also deserves her punishment.

Conspiracy against the eldest son-in-law once was not enough to gain the title of heir apparent. The eldest princess of Huyang was so ambitious that she even dared to conspire against her. She was the direct daughter of the Queen Mother and the biological sister of the emperor's mother. In Shen Wan's view, this was a boring life. Seeking death.

Yinshuang talked about something else, "The eldest princess of Huyang also entered the palace. She learned that the person who had been raised since childhood was not her biological flesh and blood. The eldest princess of Huyang couldn't accept it for a while and fainted."

Shen Wan felt sympathy for the eldest princess of Huyang.

She couldn't even imagine what would happen to her if the child she worked so hard to give birth to was stolen and taken away.

Fortunately, the eldest son-in-law did not fail the eldest princess of Huyang. Although he concealed the matter, the eldest son-in-law had been looking for his son and never gave up for so many years. Huangtian paid off and found him.

What's more important is that she and Xie Jingyan played an indispensable role in helping the eldest princess of Huyang find her biological flesh and blood.

This credit is enough to wipe out all the grudges between them and the Queen Mother and Princess Huyang's mansion, and it will not implicate the Yun family.

Although they are not afraid of offending the Queen Mother, it is better not to offend her.
