The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

In the imperial study room.

Emperor Mingde's ears felt hot, as if someone was talking about him. He had just finished reviewing the memorials, and then he picked up the closing memorial of Pei Yu and Xiao Changhe's fraud case to read.

After reading it, he picked up another secret document that had not been read by Dongyu Wei.

He has read this document no less than ten times in recent days.

It’s the Marquis of Jian’an Mansion again!

The Jian'an Marquis Mansion has either been silent for decades, as if it did not exist; or big events have been happening every day, and each big event is different, but each one is enough to be thrilling.

For example, in the case at hand, Emperor Mingde sent the Western Shadow Guard to investigate the Dengwen Drum incident, and the results of the investigation were jaw-dropping.

The Dengwen Drum incident was originally aimed at the Yunqi Academy sponsored by the Jian'an Marquis Mansion, and the source also came from the Jian'an Marquis Mansion.

This is very interesting.

You should know that restarting a basic test will consume countless human, financial and material resources.

The result turned out to be nothing more than a turmoil caused by jealousy of a housewife.

How to deal with this?

The Jian'an Marquis Mansion was both a victim and the instigator.

If he treated it lightly, he was afraid that everyone would follow suit in the future; if he treated it harshly... he felt that he couldn't do it.

Emperor Mingde had a very good impression of Yunqi Academy and felt that this was the huge reserve force for the prosperity of the North Wing.

If this treatment continues, the Jian'an Hou Mansion will be severely damaged, and the Yunqi Academy will also be severely damaged.

After all, it was his North Wing's vitality that was injured.

In addition, because the Jian'an Hou Mansion was involved in the Dengwen Drum case. He gave a secret order to Xiying Wei to check on Tang Chujun.

Long Jiang, the chief of the Western Shadow Guard, has been in office for so many years that he can grasp the essence of the orders given by Emperor Mingde just by listening once.

But this time, Long Jiang didn't understand Emperor Mingde's meaning for a long time.

At that time, I had the courage to ask one more question, "Your Majesty, what kind of information does this subordinate need to find out about the Second Madam Shi?"

Emperor Mingde answered him, "In all aspects."

Longjiang had always known that Emperor Mingde was not the kind of foolish emperor who was obsessed with women, so he really didn't understand what he meant by checking "all aspects" of a woman.

So he started to investigate "all aspects" to get the job done, including that Tang used to be cowardly, easily sad, and rarely went out; now she has become cheerful and efficient; and he also found out that the eldest daughter of the Duke of the Guard had been separated from her husband for many years and their relationship was not harmonious...

Emperor Mingde knew that the young woman who smiled like a flower was not in harmony with her husband. No wonder her husband had eight concubines and a maid in the backyard. It would be strange if they had a good relationship.

Then he thought about himself. In fact, eight concubines plus a common room are not too many. Look at his own harem... Oh, my brain hurts.

He has no right to say who has more women. How can anyone have more than him?

No one believed him when he said it. The harem was a huge burden to him.

It was in such wild thoughts that I heard Eunuch Qi coming to report, "Your Majesty, a messenger from the guards outside the palace came in, saying that Shi Chengyi, the Minister of Punishment, was kneeling barefoot at the gate of the palace to apologize to the Emperor."

"Barefoot?" Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows slightly.

Eunuch Qi bowed and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. Lord Shi has come barefoot to ask for forgiveness."

Emperor Mingde placed his hand on the top secret letter, moved his fingers slightly, and said calmly, "Then kneel barefoot."

If a girl doesn’t teach her, it’s her father’s fault. If he doesn’t kneel, who will?

Eunuch Qi stepped back and sent a message, "The emperor said, let him kneel."

The news reached the palace gate one by one, and the guard guarding the palace gate had no choice but to say to Shi Chengyi, "Master Shi, the emperor wants you to continue kneeling."

Shi Chengyi knew that Emperor Mingde had long since found out the origin of the Deng Wengu case and had been giving him opportunities to report himself.

Otherwise, they would directly arrest people, confiscate their homes, and punish all nine generations of their clans... This case really had a huge impact. No matter which dynasty or generation, the emperors attached great importance to the imperial examination.

Jealousy causes trouble and disrupts the order of the entire imperial examination.

Peace of mind! Damn it!

Shi Chengyi knelt in front of the palace gate in fear, his hands and feet were cold and his whole body was stiff. But his heart was warm, because he knew that, as his niece Shi Anxia expected, as long as he believed in Emperor Mingde, the Marquis Jian'an Mansion would not collapse.

He remembered what Shi Anxia said to him when he came to the backyard, "Uncle needs to kneel barefoot in front of the palace gate tonight. The longer he kneels, the safer the Marquis Jian'an Mansion will be."

At that time, he didn't know that his daughter Shi Anxin had caused such a big disaster.

Now that I think about it, Shi Anxia already knew that Emperor Mingde had found the source.

Under such circumstances, she still wanted to propose marriage, which shows that this niece has a very big heart.

In fact, as early as when the Dengwengu case occurred, Cen Yuan had already found out that Shi Anxin was the culprit.

Shi Anxia was also surprised when she first learned about it.

Shi Anxin really did something big without making any noise, and every time he did something, he destroyed the Marquis's Mansion.

Shi Anxia had been keeping his troops in place, waiting for the right time.

The first is to wait for Yunqi Academy to steal the limelight and shine, leaving an indelible impression in Emperor Mingde's mind.

We must make Emperor Mingde feel that if we attack the Jian'an Marquis Mansion, we are also attacking the Yunqi Academy; and if we attack the Yunqi Academy, we are also attacking the reserve force of the northern wing.

Therefore, once Emperor Mingde wanted to handle a similar case like the previous dynasty, he would have to consider whether it was hurting the vitality of the Jian'an Marquis Mansion and whether it was actually the vitality of Beiyi that was hurt.

She had sat in that position before and knew what kind of thinking pattern the person sitting there would have if he had the country at heart and was thinking about the good of the North Wing.

The second is to wait for Cheng Yi to come back from disaster relief, with his merits and achievements to offset his demerits.

After all, he is Shi Anxin's father. If his daughter makes a mistake, the father cannot escape.

Now is the right time, right place and right people. A few days ago, Cen Yuan discovered that Xiyingwei was secretly investigating the Hou Mansion. The two of them knew that Emperor Mingde had already investigated.

It's time to confess.

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

Tang Chujun didn't notice anything unusual at this moment. She just knew that her daughter and future son-in-law were doing something big without her, and she was very unhappy. "That's right, now you have an aunt and a fiancé, you don't have to care about me as a mother, humph!"

Shi Anxia laughed in silence, thinking that if you had heard what Shi Anxin said just now, you would have been so angry that you would have a mental breakdown, so it was better not to take you with you.

But I have to say this, "Okay, okay, next time I go up the mountain of knives and into the sea of ​​fire, I will drag my mother with me."

Tang Chujun pretended to be angry, but he couldn't hide the smile on his lips, "Little dog, just deal with mother!"

Seeing how happy her mother was, Shi Anxia didn't have the heart to tell her that a storm might be coming.

Although they were all under her and Cen Yuan's control, the subsequent changes in the Hou Mansion were almost earth-shattering.

She had to give herself some groundwork, "Mother, I suspect my aunt is planning to split the family business."

"Why?" Tang Chujun was puzzled.

Before Shi Anxia could open her mouth to explain, Mu Lan, the maid from the main room, came hurriedly to inform her that the mistress of the house had ordered all rooms to gather in Houde Hall urgently.

Wow! My aunt is really quick!
