Yinzhen understood in an instant that this matter must have been the work of Yin'er.

He seemed to be speaking for himself and the people, but every word he said was to say that it was Yinzhen who had harmed so many people for his own selfish reasons.

Yinzhen immediately started to investigate, but this game was designed against him. It was so tight and linked together that he couldn't even figure out which link had gone wrong.

There was not even a trace of anything.

Xia Qian said, "Fourth Master, there is no movement from Ninth Master."

"Are there any movements from the people around Lao Jiu?"

Xia Qian said: "There is no movement from the people around Master Jiu. They have been doing their job as planned these days. There is nothing unusual, and they have not contacted our people."

"By the way, Fourth Master, General Fucha is still out suppressing bandits. Otherwise, I will call General Fucha back."

"I'm afraid he's at a critical moment in suppressing the bandits. Go over and inform him to come back as soon as he's done his job."

Xia Qian received the order and left quickly.

Before Li Rongbao came back, news came from the capital.

When Emperor Kangxi heard the news, he was very angry, especially since so many people had died.

Judging from the situation here, it is also possible that someone is enriching themselves by taking the wages for bluestone and using inferior sandstone as substitute.

He issued an edict to reprimand Yinzhen, and the words in the edict were very impolite.

Just let Yinzhen go back to the capital, and leave the affairs in Tongcheng to the ninth brother.

When Li Rongbao came back, Yinzhen had already set out on his way back to Beijing.

-----------------

When Yixiu got the news at home, her first reaction was that it was impossible.

Now all the facts point to Yinzhen.

It was he who ordered sandstone to be used instead of bluestone in order to embezzle the silver.

Yinzhen did not value these material things. When he was busy, he lived frugally in his food, clothing and other expenses.

All he wanted was to ascend the throne, so how could he do something that would destroy his own foundation?

Even if he really needs money, Xinghui will do its best to help him.

Then the problem must be with Yinzhen who went with him.

But there is no news from there now.

Yixiu hurried to General Fucha's mansion.

"Cousin." Yixiu held Jinghua's hand and asked, "Is there any news from General Fucha?"

Li Rongbao and Yinzhen went to Tongcheng together. Now only Yinzhen got into trouble, but Li Rongbao was not implicated.

I guess if he stays there, he'll have a chance to find out the truth of the matter.

Jinghua knew what Yixiu was worried about.

"Li Rongbao hasn't given me any news yet. He should be trying to find a solution. If he has any news, I will definitely send someone to tell you as soon as possible."

Yixiu nodded, but she was thinking about what to do next.

Now is the critical moment for Yinzhen to seize the throne, and he must not make any mistakes at this time.

Li Rongbao is still a little bit inferior to deal with these conspiracies and tricks.

He may not be a match for Yinzhen there.

Yixiu decided to go to Tongcheng herself to find out the truth.

As soon as she arrived at the mansion, she pretended to faint, and Jianqiu quickly called Wen Xumo over.

Wen Xumo only needed to take Yixiu's pulse to know that Yixiu was fine.

"Doctor Wen, I'm going to Tongcheng. I need your cooperation in the capital."

Wen Xumo naturally knew what Yixiu meant.

I'm afraid Yixiu wants to pretend that she is sick and unable to go out in the capital, and this requires his cooperation.

For imperial physicians, it is best not to get involved in these party disputes.

But the person who spoke was Yixiu.

Wen Xumo gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Fu Jin, go ahead. I can buy you a month. I'll just say that Fu Jin is upset about the Fourth Master's matter and needs to rest. She can't see any guests."

After all, Yixiu was the prince's wife, and claiming to be ill for no more than a month was already the limit.

If there are more, the palace will intervene.

Yixiu estimated the time and it was about a month.

If the truth hasn't been revealed within such a long time, there's no need to continue.

After thinking about it, Yixiu went to the palace to meet Concubine De.

After she told Concubine De about her plan, she flatly refused.

"No! It's too dangerous!"

Yixiu stared at Concubine De, "This matter must be known by Mother, and only with her help can it be accomplished. Mother is worried about the whereabouts of the Fourth Master, and I am worried too."

"Mother also knows General Fucha's character. He is good at using military tactics and is also brave, but... Mother knows that it is most appropriate for me to do these things."

Defei's anger eventually turned into helplessness.

"Go ahead. If anyone in the palace asks about this, I will protect them for you."

Outside the Yonghe Palace, the Fourteenth Master Yinzhen paused.

Left quietly without going in.

Fourth sister-in-law is going to look for fourth brother?

How could he let her go alone on such a dangerous matter!

Yinzhen quickly made a plan in his mind.
