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

Fan Wenlian's heart sank when she heard this. She felt that what the eunuch said might represent the position of Emperor Mingde.

But Eunuch Qi narrowed his kind eyes and smiled, "Miss Tang said that we can't extort too much silver, because the silver in the Anping Palace will be confiscated sooner or later! That's the silver in the national treasury, hahahaha! Miss Tang is really far-sighted and thoughtful..."

Miss Tang has started to worry about the money in the national treasury. Hehe, what a great mother of the country she is.

Fan Wenlian was so angry that she was shaking all over. "The trial hasn't even ended yet! My prince is innocent! My prince is absolutely innocent!"

Eunuch Qi said in a shrill voice, "Even if the evidence is pressed against your forehead, you will still say that your prince is innocent! Come, lock up Princess Anping!"

"Dare! Let's see who dares to do it!" Such familiar words, just a few days ago, her sister said the same thing. As expected, they are sisters, and they say exactly the same things.

Eunuch Qi swept the dust away and said, "Dong Yuwei, get to work! I am here on the emperor's orders to go out of the palace to do some work. If you can't even do this, then you can forget about this."

As they were talking, several Dongyu guards came in from outside, arrested Fan Wenlian and locked them in the same cell with her sister Fan Wenzhen.

Eunuch Qi said leisurely, "If the case is not over, you can forget about it. Of course, if the case is over, I'm afraid you can forget about it either."

Just stay here!

Fan Wenlian's heart sank. She couldn't be locked up, as she was still needed outside to run around and take care of things.

If she was also locked up, then the prince would be finished, and her mother's family, Prince Duanjin's Mansion, would also be finished.

She is finished too!

In a hurry, Fan Wenlian remembered that she had tens of thousands of taels of silver notes on her and prepared to rush to make arrangements. However, before she could use them, she was arrested.

With shaking hands, she took out a stack of banknotes from her sleeves, passed them through the bars of the cell, and presented them with both hands, "Eunuch Qi, please be generous. Here are tens of thousands of taels. Take them and have a drink. Please stop joking!"

Eunuch Qi took the banknotes with his orchid fingers, looked at them one by one, took out a hundred taels, and threw the others back into the cell, "This hundred taels is the money you should pay to Miss Tang, I will take it for her. As for the others... Haha, were you deaf just now? These will all be the money of the national treasury in the future, I will not take them."

Fan Wenlian burst into tears and threw herself against the prison door, "Eunuch, the prince is the emperor's younger brother. Even if he took the wrong path for a while, you can't punish him to death. Otherwise, the history books will leave a stain that the emperor can't tolerate his younger brother..."

Eunuch Qi's smiling face suddenly turned cold, "Princess Anping, are you threatening our family or the emperor?"

Fan Wenlian waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no, no, I didn't mean that."

"Humph! I don't mean that! We think you are very capable!" Eunuch Qi squinted his eyes and said coldly, "Do you think you can escape this time because you didn't participate in the rebellion? Let me tell you honestly, the Prince of Anping's mansion has been ransacked! If it's ransacked, there will be evidence! Whatever evidence you want, there will be evidence."

Fan Wenlian was stunned and collapsed.

She had just left the house and was put in jail, and right after that the palace was ransacked?

She got it!

The confiscation of property was done in front of all the accomplices. The emperor wanted to use Prince Anping to lure out all the hidden dignitaries.

As expected, Eunuch Qi said, "The emperor said that those who voluntarily report themselves will be given a lighter sentence depending on the severity of the crime. Those who concealed the truth and thought they could get away with it will be punished more severely when the Dongyuwei Dali Temple investigates. I guess it will be soon, and those who report themselves will have to line up."

Fan Wenlian knew that everything was over.

Fan Wenzhen was stunned, looking at Eunuch Qi standing outside the cell, and felt a chill all over her body.

That person was indeed Emperor Mingde!

She got it.

Emperor Mingde fell in love with Miss Tang. No wonder Emperor Mingde didn't even look at her that day, but hurried to pick Miss Tang out of the carriage.

She remembered that Emperor Mingde's attention was on Miss Tang the whole time.

Miss Tang is the one she can't afford to offend!

Because she had offended Miss Tang, Emperor Mingde wanted to vent her anger for Miss Tang... Fan Wenzhen figured this out, and suddenly knelt down heavily facing the receding back of Eunuch Qi.

She shouted at the top of her lungs, "Please, sir, please help me. I want to see Miss Tang! I kowtowed to her and apologized. I was wrong! Please, sir, please help me..."

Her idea was simple. She thought that as long as she asked for Miss Tang's forgiveness, the two royal palaces related to her would be safe.

She thought that Emperor Mingde was seeking revenge for personal gain just to please Miss Tang.

In fact, this really wronged Emperor Mingde.

Emperor Mingde was a man who clearly distinguished between public and private affairs. If he had simply hit a carriage that day, he would have apologized and paid compensation.

It sounds nice, because they are all his people. Using power to oppress others is not his style.

But this actually involved an incident of disrupting the order of the medicinal materials market in the capital, and this person happened to be from the Prince Duanjin's Palace and the Prince Anping's Palace.

These two royal palaces happened to be the targets that Emperor Mingde wanted to purge.

Emperor Mingde might have wanted to vent Tang Chujun's anger a little bit, but the main point was to restore order for Guo Zhenghao, and to uphold justice for the people who died or were injured at the hands of these royal nobles. That was his real intention.

In the Tinglan Courtyard of the Young Master's Mansion, Shi Anxia was still waiting for Cen Yuan to come home to have dinner together.

Jing San hurried over to report, "Madam, the master will not be back for dinner. He asked me to come and tell you... and this, bought especially for you."

She looked up and saw that the crystal buns from Donglou Zhaoji were still steaming.

Shi Anxia took it with a smile, "Wait a moment, bring some food to the young master so he doesn't get hungry."

After saying that, she told Bei Hui to go to the kitchen and prepare a large basket of food and hand it to Jing San.

Bei Hui warned, "Jing San, go slowly. There is chicken soup in there. Don't spill it."

Jing San took the basket steadily with both hands.

But I felt the basket was heavy, filled with all kinds of exquisite snacks and hot dishes, exuding an enticing aroma.

"Don't worry, Miss Beihui. I am very steady and I promise to deliver it to the young master safely." After saying that, he turned around and walked away with big strides.

"Let's start eating." Shi Anxia handed the crystal buns to Bei Hui.

As Bei Hui was arranging the things, she took out the crystal buns one by one, with the fillings showing through the crystal clear outer skin, and placed them on the white jade plate.

Shi Anxia took a bite and it was sizzling. "Beihui, you sit down and eat too."

Bei Hui shook her head, "This is against the rules. I will just stand and serve you the food."

Shi Anxia knew she couldn't persuade her, so she let her do what she wanted. She pushed the crystal buns over to her and said, "Pick out two and eat them later. I can't eat so much by myself."

Bei Hui smiled and said, "I will just eat the leftovers later, there is no need to pick them out separately." She looked at the crystal bag and suddenly remembered something, "I suspect that the owner of Donglou Zhaoji is the young master..."
