Yuan Yongyi said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not that kind of person. He has a deep love with Sister Yuan. He is not even willing to become a concubine. How could he do those things?"
"But Zuiyue insisted that it had happened before. If it wasn't true, how could she dare to say that?" King Qi said.
"Who knows what kind of heart she has?" Yuan Yongyi said coldly, "I don't believe it at all. That Zuiyue must be talking nonsense. If you ask her to come tomorrow, I will ask her."
"Well, tomorrow I will check the identity of Zuiyue first. When I saw her today, she looks good and a bit arrogant. She is probably an official lady who has not been registered as an official."
King Qi paused and asked, "Do you want to tell Fifth Sister-in-law about this? Zuiyue is not willing to undergo an examination, and she doesn't know whether she is sick. If Fifth Brother is really ridiculous, Fifth Sister-in-law must be informed, right?"
This disease can be passed from person to person."
Yuan Yongyi frowned, "Don't say it yet, let me ask you tomorrow before making plans!"
She never believed that the prince would do such a thing.
"Okay, I listen to you!" King Qi acted extremely well-behaved and sat next to her, "Big Fatty, I will never invite these women to come over and drink with you. Now that I have time, I will go back to the house to accompany you and your family.
Sister Bao, I won’t even look at those women twice.”
Yuan Yongyi gave him an angry look, "Who cares about you? Just go if you want to!"
King Qi hugged her and said, "I don't dare, I can't beat you."
"Get lost!" Yuan Yongyi yelled with a smile.
The next day, after returning to the Yamen, King Qi first investigated the identity of Zuiyue. After searching, he found out that she was the daughter of Shang Datian, the magistrate of Hongzhou. Her original name was Shang Qiudi. Shang Datian was originally a subordinate of Yu Wenjun.
He was transferred to Hongzhou as the magistrate. When Yu Wenjun was convicted, he found out a bunch of officials. All of these officials were questioned. His family members were not registered as actors, and the men were registered as slaves.
Shang Datian was also imprisoned at that time, and his children were all dealt with according to the treatment at that time, either entering the church or becoming slaves.
King Qi found the official who was handling the case at the time and asked about the situation at that time, because King Qi remembered that this Shang Datian was an upright official. Although he was promoted by Yu Wenjun, he was transferred to Hongzhou as the prefect.
, rarely returned to Beijing, and he probably never participated in Yu Wenjun's misdeeds at that time.
The official who handled the case said: "After Shang Datian was convicted, he kept shouting that he was wronged. However, there was indeed evidence to prove that he colluded with the eldest prince, so he was dealt with according to the order at that time."
After a pause, the official sighed again: "Actually, many officials were implicated at that time, and they may not have committed any serious crimes. It's just that the emperor was furious at that time, and no one dared to say anything, so let's just say,
No one dared to say whether any of these convicted officials were innocent, and no one investigated after the incident."
King Qi pondered for a moment, "This case has been going on for so long. If anyone is really wronged, he should be redressed."
"No one dares to mention this matter. Who dares to mention it to the emperor?"
"When Fifth Brother comes back, I will tell him. My father is indeed unwilling to mention these matters, but Fifth Brother has the right to inquire." King Qi said.
The official of the Ministry of Personnel said softly: "Your Majesty, my subordinates have said frankly that the officialdom needs to be rectified. I would also like to ask Your Majesty to inform His Highness the Crown Prince. If the rectification is not rectified, there will be endless troubles."
King Qi raised his eyebrows, "You are from the Ministry of Personnel. Even you say this, which shows that the behavior of this official is really a bit too much!"
