Princess, he is rich enough to rival the country

Xu was to retaliate against what the Eldest Princess and Ding Yibai had done before. This second letter of greeting also did not get the approval of the British government.

This morning, there were all memorials to impeach the Elder Princess's Mansion, and they couldn't afford to offend Prince Li's Mansion, so no matter what, Elder Princess Funing had to meet Liu Ruxi today to settle the matter.

In the end, Princess Funing could only suppress the anger in her heart, and wrote another greeting card.

The eldest princess originally thought that if Liu Ruxi still did not respond to this invitation, she would personally visit the British government.

It's also good for others to see what kind of guy this Liu Ruxi is, who dares not even accept her mother-in-law's invitation.

But this time, news soon came from the British government, saying that Liu Ruxi had accepted their invitation, but the place of meeting was changed to the box on the second floor of Guiyuanju.

The Eldest Princess' plan was in vain, and at the same time she was secretly resentful, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief:

In any case, the fact that Liu Ruxi is still willing to meet them now means that the matter has not reached the point of no return.

"Why did the second sister agree so easily?"

Liu Susu in the British government was also quite unhappy, looking at Liu Ruxi who was getting dressed and ready to go out with puzzled eyes:

"If you want me to say, you should type back the post ten times or eight times, so that they can suffer!"

"Twice rejection is enough."

Liu Ruxi smiled slightly, took the cone hat on the side and put it on her head:

"Some things can be done once and never again. If you make people anxious, it may not be worth the loss."

After being together for five years, Liu Ruxi thought that she knew the mother-in-law of Princess Funing fairly well.

Twice closed doors are almost the limit of Princess Funing, and if she refuses any further, things may change.

There is no need to face such risks for the sake of momentary pleasure.

Liu Susu pouted, knowing that her second sister was telling the truth, but in the end she suppressed the slightest bit of unhappiness in her heart.

Seeing that Liu Ruxi had packed everything properly, she also picked up the cone hat on the side:

"I will go with my second sister!"

These days, Liu Ruxi has long been used to the behavior of Liu Susu following her wherever she goes.

Knowing her younger sister's temperament, Liu Ruxi didn't refuse, and took Liu Susu out of the house together.

Arriving at Guiyuanju, Liu Ruxi had just entered the door, and before she could speak, the shopkeeper Zhao who was standing at the counter greeted her.

As Gu Yanshu's capable general, Shopkeeper Zhao has also heard about the cooperation between Liu Ruxi and his young master.

Because of this reason, shopkeeper Zhao also took care of Liu Ruxi a little more.

When leading Liu Ruxi to the door of the box, he did not forget to remind Liu Ruxi that if something happened, he could ring the bell directly, and he would send someone over immediately.

Although the most important reason why Liu Ruxi set the meeting place at Guiyuanju was because she didn't want the eldest princess, mother and son to dirty the lintel of the British government.

But I have to say that the actions of shopkeeper Zhao also made her feel very heart-warming.

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Ruxi saw the eldest princess and Ding Yibai sitting in the room.

He glanced down at the teacup on the table, almost no heat could be seen, and even the color of the tea soup was a little lighter. It was not difficult to see that the two people in the room had been here for a while.

Thinking about it, a barely audible sarcasm flashed across Liu Ruxi's eyes:

It's really a feng shui turn. In the past, she never dared to think that she would let the mother and son wait for her.

Here, the eldest princess also noticed Liu Ruxi's arrival, and quickly suppressed the emotions in her heart, with a slight smile on her face:

"Ruxi is here? Su Su is here too? Hurry up, come and sit here!"

The enthusiasm in his tone made Liu Ruxi feel as if he had passed away.

It seems that the life-and-death struggle she has seen with the Princess's Mansion in recent days is all her illusion.

Seeing Liu Ruxi standing still, the eldest princess stood up directly, walked to Liu Ruxi's side, took her hand, and led her to the seat:

"Look at you child, it's been a long time since I saw you, why are you still polite to your mother?"

The eldest princess's hands are clearly the body temperature that ordinary people should have, but at this moment Liu Ruxi only felt as if two poisonous snakes had climbed on her hands, which made people shudder.

It is obvious that Kyoto has entered late spring now, and the weather is gradually getting hotter.

But now seeing the kind and warm smile on the eldest princess's face, Liu Ruxi only felt an astonishing chill in her heart.

What should she say?

As expected of her mother-in-law, she grew up in a deep palace, and the depth of the palace was unmatched.

Now that they have torn off the last layer of shame and caused a storm all over the city, how can this mother-in-law still talk and laugh at her like a normal person?

With Liu Ruxi's stupid skill, Princess Funing directly played the emotional card with Liu Ruxi.

First of all, she said that she took the initiative to go to the British government to ask Liu Ruxi to marry Ding Yibai, and she was 1 satisfied with Liu Ruxi.

She also said that she also knew that Liu Ruxi had worked hard in the eldest princess's mansion for so many years, and had done everything a daughter-in-law should do.

He even blamed Ding Yibai for the first time.

It is said that Liu Ruxi was wronged at the Princess's Mansion a few years ago, it was indeed Ding Yibai who was too stupid, it was Ding Yibai and the Princess's Mansion who were sorry for Liu Ruxi.

Afterwards, she began to cry and complain about her difficulties. Her husband passed away early, and she raised Ding Yibai by herself, and became both a father and a mother. It was really not easy.

He also said that the son did not teach, it was the fault of the mother, and even wanted to apologize to Liu Ruxi for Ding Yibai.

……

If it was an ordinary woman, she would have to soften her heart if she was defeated by such an emotional card.

However, Liu Ruxi's heart was already as rock-solid. It's good that Princess Funing didn't play this emotional card, but this time, Liu Ruxi's heart became even colder.

Liu Ruxi regained her composure, and watched Princess Funing sing her one-man show with cold eyes, but the sarcasm on her face became more and more obvious:

It turns out that the eldest princess also knows what kind of life she has lived these years, and it turns out that she has seen everything in her eyes.

She really thinks that the eldest princess is an innocent person, and she doesn't know anything.

Seeing Princess Funing talking about apologizing for Ding Yibai, and even preparing to give Liu Ruxi a big gift, Liu Ruxi finally stopped her:

"Let's say goodbye. Ruxi's life is like grass shoes. How dare he accept such a big gift from the eldest princess? If the eldest princess invited you today just to say these things, Ruxi doesn't really want to hear it, so I'm afraid I can only leave here."

As soon as Liu Ruxi opened her mouth, Princess Funing noticed the indifferent expression on her face, and immediately understood that playing the emotional card might be useless.

The smile on his face suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he looked at Liu Ruxi with dark eyes.

Facing the eldest princess' eyes as if she wanted to eat people, Liu Ruxi felt that the coolness in her heart had dissipated a lot.

There was a slight smile on his face:

"The Eldest Princess has already wasted a lot of time just now, let's get down to business now. When Ruxi was going out, the Duke specially told her to let Ruxi go back to the house for dinner."

Now it's less than an hour before dinner time, the meaning of Liu Ruxi's words is also very obvious, she doesn't want to break up with the eldest princess and Ding Yibai.

Liu Ruxi's words are so clear, no matter how deep the princess's palace is, it won't be able to cause any waves.

He could only follow Liu Ruxi's intentions and directly get to the point.

Today, the eldest princess and Ding Yibai are looking for Liu Ruxi, and they have two requirements in total.

One is to let Liu Ruxi stop all actions of spreading rumors in Beijing.

The second is to let Liu Ruxi clarify to the people in Beijing that the rumors and gossips in Beijing about the Princess' Palace these days are all fabricated by Liu Ruxi.

For Liu Ruxi's appeal, Princess Funing and Ding Yibai are also very clear, and promised that as long as Liu Ruxi can achieve the above two points, they will immediately give Liu Ruxi and Li Shu, and they will never get entangled in the future.

The Eldest Princess and Ding Yibai's calculations were extremely loud, thinking that as long as they said so, Liu Ruxi would definitely agree.

However, the two of them had no idea that today's Liu Ruxi was no longer the usual Liu Ruxi.

Now that Liu Ruxi has learned a lot from Gu Yanshu, if she doesn't learn half of Gu Yanshu's ability, then she is really sorry for her former title of "talented woman in Kyoto".

As soon as the eldest princess finished speaking, Liu Ruxi heard the loopholes in it:

What does it mean that as long as she achieves those two points, the Princess Palace will give her and Li Shu immediately?

People who don't know think that it is she, Liu Ruxi, who is asking for help from the eldest princess's mansion.

Besides, according to the usual behavior of Princess Funing and Ding Yibai, Liu Ruxi has no doubts at all. If she really did what they said, the mother and son could immediately cross the river and tear down the bridge, turning their faces and denying anyone.

At this moment, Liu Ruxi has lost the slightest affection for the eldest princess's mansion, so she mercilessly pierced through the eldest princess' trap:

"It seems that the eldest princess and young master Ding are not sincerely discussing with Ruxi today. If this is the case, then we should not waste time."

After speaking, Liu Ruxi got up and prepared to leave.

"Stop!" The eldest princess quickly stopped Liu Ruxi's movements in a low voice, and gritted her teeth fiercely, "Then what do you do?"

If it was possible, the eldest princess wanted to tear Liu Ruxi up just like that.

But now the form is stronger than people, and she has no choice but to give in.

Unlike the eldest princess's boredom, the corners of Liu Ruxi's lips curved involuntarily, and it could be seen that she was in a good mood.

"In that case, then Ruxi made it clear."

Sitting back in the seat just now, Liu Ruxi didn't intend to show off, and directly stated her request.

Like the eldest princess, Liu Ruxi also has two requirements.

One is to let Ding Yibai write down the divorce letter on the spot, and let her go free.

The second is to ask Ding Yibai to compensate for the loss of Yaoyue Pavilion a few days ago.

Because of the gossip and gossip about the Princess' Mansion in Beijing, Ding Yibai finally called back the servant who was scolding at Shaohua intersection.

Even so, Ding Yibai's actions also caused a lot of losses to Yaoyue Pavilion.

Even though Gu Yanshu repeatedly emphasized that no compensation is needed, Liu Ruxi was always very sorry.

Since Princess Li is unwilling to ask for compensation from her, and wants to come to the eldest princess's mansion for compensation, Princess Li has no reason to refuse.

Liu Ruxi imitated the tone of the eldest princess just now, and promised the eldest princess that as long as the eldest princess's mansion meets her two requirements, she will no longer reveal the secrets of the eldest princess's mansion to others.

"What about clarification?"

Princess Funing also heard the difference in Liu Ruxi's promise, and asked repeatedly.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruxi snorted directly, and asked back:

"As Xi said, everything is true, so why clarify?"

clarify?

Unless Liu Ruxi is crazy, there is absolutely no possibility of clarifying for the eldest princess's mansion.

After all, once she retorted that the rumors in Beijing were all made up by her, the eldest princess could order the Ministry of Punishment to imprison her for the crime of defaming the royal family's reputation.

At that time, she will really complain that every day should not be answered, and that the ground will not work.

The Eldest Princess' originally gloomy face turned ugly at the moment:

"If that's the case, then there's no need for us to talk any more today."

"Since the eldest princess has said so, then Ruxi should bid farewell."

However, Liu Ruxi seemed to have never heard of the threat in the eldest princess's tone, she stood up and said ten thousand blessings to the eldest princess, and then walked out the door without looking back.

When he walked to the door, Liu Ruxi seemed to have thought of something, stopped in his tracks, and slightly turned his head in the direction of the eldest princess:

"Ruxi has been away from the mansion for a long time. I don't know if the guard surnamed Pang, the eldest princess, can use it smoothly?"

In a word, the eldest princess immediately changed her face, and she looked at Liu Ruxi with a ferocious look as if she wanted to eat people.

At this time, the eldest princess really realized what a threat is, and finally understood why from the beginning, Liu Ruxi looked like she was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai.

She, the daughter-in-law, usually looks like a quiet doormat, but she is so cruel inside.

Taking two deep breaths and suppressing her beating heart, the eldest princess finally squeezed out two words between her teeth:

"return!"

Liu Ruxi was not at all surprised by the eldest princess's reaction, and asked with a smile:

"Didn't the eldest princess just say that there is no need to talk anymore?"

"I think we can talk again!"

The eldest princess closed her eyes and took another step back.

Liu Ruxi raised the corners of her lips, and finally obeyed and sat back in the position just now.

After Liu Ruxi sat down, the eldest princess originally wanted to negotiate with Liu Ruxi again.

For example, He Li Shu can give it, but they will not bear the loss of Yaoyue Pavilion.

Although the eldest princess has never been to Yaoyue Pavilion, she has heard about the woman's gold-selling cave.

Ding Yibai made a fuss at Shaohua intersection for seven or eight days.

The loss of Yaoyue Pavilion for seven or eight days is not a small sum.

However, Liu Ruxi disagreed, and bluntly stated that there are two conditions, neither of which can be dispensed with.

Then the Eldest Princess tried to get Liu Ruxi to back down on the matter of public opinion, for example, she didn't need Liu Ruxi to come forward to clarify, but wanted her to use the power of Prince Li's Mansion to eliminate the impact of this matter.

However, this request was also not agreed by Liu Ruxi.

Originally, the Eldest Princess wanted to discuss with Liu Ruxi, but Liu Ruxi had lost her patience, and only replied:

"The eldest princess thinks, you still have room to bargain now?"

Then he blocked all the words that the eldest princess said.

In the end, the eldest princess could only follow Liu Ruxi's words and agree to her two conditions, only in exchange for starting tomorrow, Liu Ruxi would no longer spread any secrets about the eldest princess's mansion.

Now Liu Ruxi feels disgusted just by looking at the eldest princess, mother and son.

After the negotiation was over, Ding Yibai was asked to write the letter of reconciliation on the spot, and he was asked to hand over the loss of Yaoyue Pavilion to her immediately.

Seeing He Lishu in front of her eyes, Liu Ruxi took a deep breath, her heart was not as excited as she imagined at first, only calm and relieved.

"From now on, I, Liu Ruxi and Ding Yibai, have nothing to do with the eldest princess's mansion, and there will be no future."

After carefully folding He Lishu and putting it away, and finishing counting Ding Yibai's compensation, Liu Ruxi stood up again:

"When the girl reconciles, the husband's family should return the dowry in full. Later, Ruxi will send someone to the eldest princess's mansion to get the dowry back."

After speaking, Liu Ruxi didn't even give the eldest princess and Ding Yibai time to react, and left the box directly.

This time, Liu Ruxi's footsteps didn't stop at all, and there was even a tendency to walk faster and faster.

After walking out of the line of sight of the eldest princess and Ding Yibai, Liu Ruxi couldn't help taking a deep breath:

She actually did it, she really got the Heli Book, she finally doesn't have to face that disgusting man anymore!

Liu Susu, who was shocked by the eldest princess's shamelessness and the sudden strong aura of her second sister during the whole negotiation, finally came to her senses at this moment, and praised Liu Ruxi repeatedly:

"The second sister is amazing! Does the second sister know? For a moment just now, I even thought I saw the eldest brother!"

Liu Ruxi, who had untied the last shackles in her heart, was finally in the mood to play jokes with Liu Susu:

"How can I compare to the Duke? Just laugh at me!"

"Su Su no!"

Liu Susu quickly refuted with a smile, although what she just said did contain exaggeration, but it was also telling the truth.

When Liu Ruxi got up for the second time just now, when she walked to the door and turned her head, Liu Susu really thought that she saw her extremely powerful elder brother.

Thinking of this, Liu Susu seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly asked:

"What happened to the guard surnamed Pang? Why did the eldest princess let go when the second sister mentioned him?"

The smile on Liu Ruxi's face froze for a moment, then she shook her head:

"It's nothing."

This is almost enough to fool a three-year-old child!

Liu Susu is delicate, but not stupid, and immediately knew that her second sister was not telling the truth, so she hurriedly asked:

"Good sister, just tell me!"

However, since returning to the mansion, Liu Ruxi, who has always been obedient to Liu Susu, this time, no matter how spoiled Liu Susu is, she is unwilling to let go.

The more Liu Ruxi was like this, the more curious Liu Susu became.

The voice is getting softer and softer, good words are coming out one after another, I just hope to get the answer from Liu Ruxi's mouth.

In the end, the two sisters talked and laughed and left Guiyuanju.

Of course, before leaving, Liu Ruxi did not forget to inform shopkeeper Zhao, and expressed his gratitude to shopkeeper Zhao for taking care of him just now.

On this side, Liu Ruxi felt relieved, but on the other side, the eldest princess, the mother and son, was about to face a storm.

The eldest princess endured and endured, but in the end she couldn't hold back, and spat in a low voice:

"It's really a dog that bites and doesn't bark!"

It is self-evident who this is talking about.

And from the very beginning, Ding Yibai, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help asking the same question as Liu Susu:

"What did Liu Ruxi mean by what she said just now? Why did my mother back down again and again when she mentioned Guard Pang?"

Like Liu Susu, Ding Yibai did not get the answer from the eldest princess, but instead got a reproachful look from the eldest princess.

Outsiders only know that the eldest princess dotes on Ding Yibai extremely, but they don't know that Ding Yibai's fear of the eldest princess is part of his flesh and blood.

Seen by the Eldest Princess, even though Ding Yibai was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask any more, and shrank back to the side again, calming down.

Neither Liu Susu nor Ding Yibai got the answer, but in the private room next door, Gu Yanshu and the fifth prince did know the inside story.

"Cough cough cough..."

Hearing Zhi Ge's reply, the fifth prince couldn't hold back, and the tea in his throat directly choked him.

Even Gu Yanshu's face showed a hint of surprise:

The guard Pang in the eldest princess's mansion is actually the face of the eldest princess.

Originally it was nothing.

After all, the status of Tianqi's princess is higher than that of the princesses of most dynasties in history, and perhaps the restraint will be stronger when the son-in-law is there.

But if the son-in-law passed away and was alone and sleepless, it would not be a big problem to raise a few face heads.

But the bad thing is that because the son-in-law died strangely at the beginning, in order to clear up her suspicion, the eldest princess declared to the outside world that from then on, the ancient Buddha with the green lamp would keep the festival for the son-in-law to show her innocence.

If such things broke out in normal times, others would at most say a few words that the eldest princess did not keep her promise and could not bear the loneliness.

But at this moment, the eldest princess's mansion is already in turmoil and cannot withstand any turmoil. If this matter spreads again, it will inevitably be criticized by the people's officials.

Furthermore, this bodyguard Pang has another identity. He was one of the dowry bodyguards when the eldest princess got married.

The Ding family was originally very dissatisfied with the eldest princess because of the death of the son-in-law, and because the eldest princess raised Ding Yibai, the only blood of the son-in-law, into what he is now.

If the Ding family knew about this and said that the eldest princess had a relationship with the bodyguard when the son-in-law was alive, and that she would kill the son-in-law later, then the eldest princess would be in serious trouble!

No matter how noble the eldest princess's status is, murdering her husband is a felony in Tianqi!

Looking at it this way, it's not surprising that the eldest princess would compromise because of this.

The Fifth Prince, who had finally regained his strength, quickly put down the teacup in his hand, and sighed with emotion in a low voice:

"This Miss Liu Er is not simple!"

The matter between the eldest princess and Pang's bodyguard was kept secret, even Zhi Ge couldn't find out the clues.

It was Liu Ruxi who took the initiative to tell her so clearly.

It's no wonder that no matter how Liu Susu asked, Liu Ruxi refused to reveal anything.

It's really not suitable to take this matter out to dirty the ears of a little girl who hasn't left the cabinet.

It is rare for Gu Yanshu to agree with the Fifth Prince's words:

"It's really not easy."

Knowing that Liu Ruxi was negotiating with the eldest princess's mansion today, the fifth prince made a fuss that he must come and see the excitement.

It just so happened that when the garden house was being renovated, Gu Yanshu ordered people to build several mother-child suites.

As long as the mechanism is activated, the private room where Gu Yanshu is located can clearly hear the conversation in the next room, but the next room cannot hear the sound of this private room.

After asking shopkeeper Zhao to ask for Liu Ruxi's consent, Gu Yanshu brought the fifth prince over to watch the excitement.

The whole negotiation of Liu Ruxi just now was heard by Gu Yanshu and the Fifth Prince.

Magnify all your advantages and press every step of the way...

Even Gu Yanshu couldn't help but want to say "wonderful".

And at this moment, the Fifth Prince couldn't help but start bragging about Liu Ruxi's rainbow farts.

After talking about it, as if thinking of something, he looked at Gu Yanshu:

"Did Sister-in-Law of the Third Emperor privately advise Miss Liu Er?"

"Why do you ask that?" Gu Yanshu asked back.

"Instinctively, just now, Miss Liu Er always felt a little bit of the shadow of Mrs. Three Emperors."

The Fifth Prince rubbed his chin, recalling.

Especially when mentioning Guard Pang and warning the Eldest Princess that she had no room for bargaining, the Fifth Prince even thought for a moment that the speaker was his Third Emperor's Wife.

Later, Gu Yanshu's answer also confirmed the fifth prince's guess:

"You are sharp."

Gu Yanshu did indeed point out Liu Ruxi in private.

No.

To be precise, Liu Ruxi consulted Gu Yanshu in private.

Gu Yanshu originally admired Liu Ruxi's actions of bravely proposing to make peace and stop losses in time under such a big environment as Tianqi.

Now Liu Ruxi just asked him a few more words, Gu Yanshu naturally knew everything and said everything.

Looking at it now, Liu Ruxi is indeed a very good student.

The opera singers have already left, and there is no need for those who watch the opera to stay in the stands for a long time.

After commenting on Liu Ruxi's performance just now, Gu Yanshu and the fifth prince went back home.

On the other side, the eldest princess and Ding Yibai originally thought that if Liu Ruxi's request was met, they would be able to safely get through the crisis that the eldest princess' mansion was facing.

However, on the second day, they realized that this idea was a little too naive.

On the second day, the discussions in Beijing and China about the Princess's Mansion did not stop, but even intensified.

The eldest princess was so angry that she went directly to the officials in the British government and accused Liu Ruxi of not keeping her promise.

They had clearly given the He Li Shu to Liu Ruxi, fearing that something might change, they even returned the dowry to Liu Ruxi in full yesterday.

Even the misappropriation of the five years has been made up at its original value.

In the end, Liu Ruxi didn't move at all?

But when faced with the princess' accusation, Liu Ruxi was also very righteous:

"Ruxi only promised not to spread new content yesterday, but he didn't promise to help the eldest princess shut the mouths of the people in Beijing."

In a word, the princess was so blocked that she couldn't get up or down.

I wanted to refute, but found that there was no way to refute.

In the end, he could only order Liu Ruxi angrily, trying to get her to shut up the mouths of the people in Beijing.

As a result, Liu Ruxi replied Shi Shiran, "Shu Ruxi can't follow her orders", and turned back directly to the British government.

While returning to the mansion, he didn't even forget to tell the servants to close the door of the mansion, don't let the eldest princess in, so as not to dirty the grounds of the British government.

That attitude of avoiding the eldest princess like a snake scorpion made the eldest princess very angry.

Because of Liu Ruxi's act of digging a hole for him, the eldest princess originally planned to make trouble for Liu Ruxi.

But soon, the eldest princess found that things were not as simple as she imagined.

The officials impeached the memorial like snowflakes, and finally caught the emperor's attention.

After knowing that what Ding Yibai had done had become known to everyone in Beijing and aroused public outrage, the emperor also became angry.

Directly order the Ministry of Penalties to thoroughly investigate Ding Yibai and the princess's mansion, and must come up with answers in the shortest possible time to stop the people's voices.

The emperor's dragon heart was furious, and the Criminal Department naturally did not dare to delay, following the clues provided by Liu Ruxi, they searched the Princess's mansion and Ding Yibai thoroughly.

It was finally confirmed that what Liu Ruxi said was true.

In an ancient well in the Princess's mansion, there were indeed several young women's corpses buried.

As for the matter of printing money, they even pulled out carrots and brought out mud, and even involved several officials of the household department and the second prince.

Who doesn't know that the second prince and Hubu are both from the same lineage of the first prince?

How could the emperor have thought that this matter could be related to the court officials and his son?

Immediately, he got angry again, and directly dismissed more than half of the officials of the household department. Even the eldest prince, the second prince, and the fourth prince were all suspended, and they were all punished by being banned for a month.

If the princes are like this, how can Ding Yibai please him?

Not to mention all the money earned by printing money was confiscated by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and he almost faced prison.

In the end, it was the eldest princess who, relying on the little brother-sister bond she had left with the emperor, went to the palace to beg for mercy for her only son for a long time, and was able to save Ding Yibai's comprehensiveness.

But the eldest princess was also deprived of the title of eldest princess by the emperor because of her inability to teach her children well, and was demoted to Princess Funing, and was banned for half a year.

Ding Yibai is innocent, there is no way to demote him, the emperor could only give up after thinking about it for a while, and only deprived him of his qualifications to be an official in the court and conferred the title of marquis.

Although he was dissatisfied with Ding Yibai's light punishment, the emperor's resolute action can be regarded as an explanation to the people in Beijing.

The rumors about the eldest princess' mansion and Ding Yibai finally gradually stopped.

Just when the common people thought that they would never hear anything about Princess Funing and Ding Yibai again, another piece of news related to Ding Yibai spread all over the streets of Kyoto:

Ding Yibai, Princess Funing's precious son, was cut off by a concubine in the house!
