Marquis Yang is indeed feeling very uncomfortable at the moment. It should be said that the Yang family is also feeling uncomfortable at this time. Yang Rong is still in prison at this time.
Yin Li and Tang He found no direct evidence that Yang Rong was involved, but his steward Yu Shui took care of everything. It seemed that the emperor had nothing to do with him.
But we are not fools, and the judgment of the case does not only depend on the confession, but everyone will also think about whether it is good or not.
Why did a housekeeper in Yu Shui want to harm the crown princess and the emperor's grandson? Where did he have the courage to put so many people into the palace?
Everyone knows with their toes that he was instigated by someone else, it's just about who is behind it.
Regardless of whether Yang Rong pleads guilty or not, it will have a great impact on the Yang family.
He was already very worried, but Yang Heshu still resigned at this time, even if he was transferred to Xiazhou to be the magistrate of No. 1 Middle County, he also wanted to leave Beijing.
You know, after he returned to the capital, he was already an official lower than the fifth rank because of his continuous meritorious service. The Beijing official was transferred to other places. Not to mention promotion, he also took the initiative to move down to the sixth rank. What is the difference between this and directly pleading guilty on behalf of the Yang family?
But that kid had big ideas and refused to listen to advice.
Marquis Yang had a headache. He sighed and opened the window to look at the vast white space outside. He faintly heard laughter coming from the garden, so he called a servant and asked, "What's going on next?"
The servant bowed and said, "The uncle is entertaining guests in the garden."
After hearing this, Marquis Yang frowned and asked, "Who is there?"
"There is Master Tang, the two young masters from the Bai family and the young lady from the Zhou family."
Marquis Yang knew who it was as soon as he heard it. He frowned, waved his hand and said, "I understand, you can go ahead."
As soon as the person here left, the housekeeper came quickly and whispered in his ear: "The fifth prince has left the palace."
Marquis Yang's eyes lit up and he asked in a low voice: "With whom?"
"Together with the two princesses and the sixth prince, they came out of the palace to see the fifth prince's palace. They are currently at the palace."
The fifth prince will open a palace next year and get married the year after that. After marrying his wife, he will go to the fiefdom, so his palace is already under construction.
Originally, he was supposed to get engaged and open a palace this year, but the emperor had no money in the internal treasury this year. Although Lao Wu was a concubine, the emperor still loved him very much, so he was reluctant to give him an empty palace, so he postponed it for a year.
Now that the autumn harvest is over, all the harvests from the imperial city have been sent to the inner treasury, and the emperor has money again, so he started it again.
Today, the fifth prince took his three younger brothers and sisters out of the palace to visit his palace.
Marquis Yang immediately got up and left the house, wanting to see him.
After he walked out, Qianmu carefully climbed up to the observation building, leaned over and reported to Yang Heshu in a low voice.
The teacup in Yang Heshu's hand paused, and he turned it around twice unconsciously. After putting it down, he nodded to Qianmu and asked him to follow him carefully.
Tang He knew him best. One look at his actions and he knew that his old habit was back again. He couldn't help but turned around and asked him, "Who are you checking?"
Yang Heshu looked up at him but didn't answer.
Tang He shrugged and said, "Forget it if you don't tell me."
Yang Heshu was silent, while Manbao and the other three children sat aside, eating meat with innocent eyes, looking at this and that, pretending not to know anything, and minimizing their sense of existence.
Even Mrs. Tang and Mrs. Yang didn't speak.
After a long time, Yang Heshu suddenly said: "My father has gone out, do you want to check further?"
Mr. Tang, who was eating meat, choked at once. The meat in his throat could not go down and was blocked by him. He could only look at Man Bao with tears in his eyes.
Man Bao quickly put down the meat in his hands, ran forward, bent the person down, and then patted and lifted the person. Mrs. Tang felt a surge of air in her stomach, and she couldn't help but open her mouth wide, and the meat in her throat flew out.
When Yang Heshu and others who were anxious saw it, they immediately stopped being anxious, exhaled and sat down in their own seats.
Tang Run, who was running around the field, breathed a sigh of relief and sighed like an adult: "Dad, you are too careless."
Tang He glared at his son, then turned to stare at Yang Heshu.
Yang Heshu sighed and said, "It seems that the fifth prince has left the palace. He is going to see the fifth prince." Tang He took a sip of tea and asked, "What is uncle Shi going to do?"
Yang Heshu lowered his eyes and looked at the tea cup in his hand, and after a while he said: "If the noble concubine and the fifth prince in the palace take the initiative to acknowledge this matter, then this matter will have nothing to do with the Yang family."
Tang He frowned, "But according to what Master Yin and I investigated, not only the fifth prince, but also Concubine Yang did not know about this matter."
Yang Heshu raised his lips, "Yes, this is Yang's luck, but it's a pity that his father doesn't understand."
Mr. Tang was speechless for a while.
He is an outsider, and in the long run, this is indeed the Yang family's luck; but as a member of the Yang family, Marquis Yang may not think so.
Not everyone can look at it for twenty or thirty years and then temporarily put aside the interests of the past ten or so years.
Tang He couldn't sit still. After all, this was a case he handled, even though it has been handed over to Dali Temple now.
Man Bao sat back in his seat, with a puzzled look on his face, "What does this mean? Does Mr. Yang want the Fifth Prince and Concubine Yang to acknowledge the details?"
Bai Erlang said: "They are not stupid, why should you suffer on their behalf?"
Yang Heshu said: "There are many reasons, such as being moved by interests, being moved by love, or being deceived by the other party. People will always do things that are incredible in the eyes of others."
"For example, I am now," Yang Heshu laughed at himself: "Why should I tell you the wrong things my father is doing? And also report him with Tang He?"
Everyone was silent.
Bai Shan hesitated and said: "For justice?"
Man Bao and Bai Erlang looked at Yang Heshu with bright eyes, asking: Really? Really?
Others:…
Then Yang Heshu nodded shamelessly under the gaze of Tang He and his wife, and said with a smile: "Not bad."
Bai Shan and the other three breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Yang Heshu with admiration.
Mrs. Yang sat quietly next to him, but moved slightly closer to him.
Both Tang He and Mrs. Tang thought he was extremely shameless.
But Man Bao really admired Yang Heshu. It was easy to say it but to do it was too difficult. After all, she put herself in her father's shoes and thought that if her father did something wrong, she would stop it and make up for it.
She will admit her mistake on behalf of her father, but it is a bit difficult to take the initiative to report her father to the government.
No wonder Senior Brother Yang hesitated for so long just now.
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang also thought about it and admired Yang Heshu even more.
Bai Shan even poured a full cup of tea and said: "Brother Yang, I offer you a cup of tea instead of wine. If I go to Xiazhou in the future, I will definitely bring you a lot of delicious food."
Yang Heshu smiled and raised his glass, "Then I'll wait for your delicious food."
Tang He was too lazy to expose him, so he thought about it and said, "Even if it's for the fifth prince, Concubine Yang won't agree, right?"
Yang Heshu said: "Then it depends on my aunt's heart, which is more important, the son or the mother's family."
"Or maybe my father was so eloquent that he was able to convince them, mother and son."
Bai Shan said confidently: "No, the fifth prince is not stupid. If he admits this, what will he do in the future?"
