Yuan Qingling turned back to look at Xiaoyao Gong, "His heart was not good to begin with, but now he drinks so much, his blood pressure has naturally soared."
Xiaoyao Gong looked at her medicine box, then at the stethoscope and blood pressure monitor hanging on her ears. Something strange seemed to flash in his eyes.
However, he didn't say anything. He just walked over and sat down and said to the Emperor: "Then I won't drink anymore. You have to listen to the doctor's words."
The Supreme Emperor was unhappy and said, "I'm too lazy to care about you, just go to sleep alone."
Yuan Qingling knew that he was drunk, so he quickly administered the medicine to Eunuch Chang, "watch him eat it before going to sleep."
Eunuch Chang took it and said, "Dele!"
The Supreme Emperor staggered in, leaving Duke Xiaoyao and Yuan Qingling in the palace.
Yuan Qingling came back from her anger and remembered what she wanted to ask Mr. Xiaoyao today, so she pushed the medicine box closer and asked, "Sir, have you seen the contents of this medicine box?"
Xiaoyao Gong looked at it for a while, slowly shook his head and said: "No."
Yuan Qingling was a little disappointed, "I really haven't seen it before?"
Xiaoyao Gong looked confused for a moment, but he still shook his head and said: "I have indeed never seen it before."
Yuan Qingling felt that he must have guessed wrong. If Xiaoyao Gong was a fellow villager, he should be very happy to see him. At least, his mood would be the same as his own, and he would definitely not deny it.
Forget it, where can there be so many time travels?
She packed up her things, prescribed antihypertensive medicine for the Supreme Emperor for a few more days, took it in and gave it to Eunuch Chang. When she came out, Gong Xiaoyao had already left.
Yuan Qingling had no choice but to leave the palace. The palace was also a place of right and wrong, so it was not advisable to stay for too long.
Yu Wenhao was very busy in the next few days. He would go out early and come back late. He would often come back only to have a sound sleep before going out again.
Finally, he came home early that day and was very happy when he walked in.
"Why are you so happy?" Yuan Qingling asked.
He smiled and said: "I took a case today."
Yuan Qing laughed and said: "Why are you so happy about taking a case? When will your Jingzhao Mansion not take a case?"
Yu Wenhao's eyes were dark, "This case was handled well."
"Huh?" Yuan Qingling fed him a mouthful of red date cake.
"Today, more than a dozen scholars from Tingjiang Prefecture came to Beijing to file a complaint. They sued Mo Wen, the prefect of Tingjiang Prefecture, for charging the common people to suppress bandits. Each household collected one hundred coins."
"There are such lawless and corrupt officials?"
Yuan Qingling was not interested in the case, so he did not ask further questions. The two of them had dinner together and walked around the yard. Xu Yi came over and said that Master Tang was back.
Yu Wenhao immediately went to the study. Tang Yang had already been waiting in the study. Seeing Yu Wenhao come in, he quickly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the matter has been settled, and the subsequent chain of evidence has been investigated clearly. We are just waiting for you to open a trial.
"
Yu Wenhao slapped the table and said happily: "Okay, if you handle this properly, you will be rewarded!"
"Silver reward?" Tang Yang asked with a smile.
"Silver reward... I owe it!" Yu Wenhao wrote an IOU with a stroke of his pen and threw it to Tang Yang. Tang Yang folded it slowly, "This is the fifteenth one."
Yu Wenhao showed no shame at all, "Please bear with me, the princess is pregnant, and the palace will have a lot of money to spend in the future."
Tang Yang smiled and said wisely: "Maybe this IOU will work better."
Yu Wenhao narrowed his eyes, "With this move, I will never give up until I pull out Prince Ji's tiger teeth."
Emperor Ming Yuan knew about the fact that the scholar from Tingjiang Prefecture came to Beijing to complain the next morning. He was furious and ordered Yu Wenhao to conduct a strict investigation. Once the evidence of the crime is confirmed, Tingjiang Prefecture will remove all officials first, no matter how many officials are involved, and then investigate the crime.
Prince Ji was also in the court, with a pale face.
When he retreated from the court, he caught up with Yu Wenhao.
"Fifth brother, wait a moment."
Yu Wenhao stopped and looked back at him, "Brother, is something wrong?"
Prince Ji put his hand on his shoulder with a smile, "It's okay, it's just that we brothers haven't had a drink together for a long time. Why don't you bring a can of good wine to your house tonight and have a drink with you?"
Yu Wenhao stepped away without leaving a trace and said, "Let's wait for another day. I've really been busy with official duties recently."
King Ji raised his hand and said nonchalantly: "What happened in Tingjiang Mansion is purely due to those scholars who had enough to eat and went crazy over nothing. According to me, beat them up and drive them back to their place of origin, so that the government officials can keep an eye on them."
It’s over.”
Yu Wenhao looked at him with a half-smile, "Brother, before this matter was investigated, you knew that the scholars went crazy over nothing?"
"I went to Tingjiang Town to suppress bandits. Mo Wen did not receive any fees for suppressing bandits. I know this very well," said Prince Ji.
"Whether they have been collected or not, we will find out after investigation." After Yu Wenhao finished speaking, he cupped his hands and said, "I have something else to do, so I won't accompany you for now."
King Ji said in a gloomy tone: "Lao Wu, are you planning to drink a toast instead of eating it?"
Yu Wenhao looked at him with cold eyes, "I won't even eat the fine wine for the toast."
Prince Ji had a gloomy look on his face, "Which of us princes doesn't have something shady behind his back? If you stab him, someone is bound to stab you. You'd better think clearly."
"As you wish!" Yu Wenhao strode away.
King Ji was so angry that he was determined to go against him.
He returned to the palace angrily and heard that Princess Ji ordered someone to invite him.
He felt bored for a while, but went there anyway.
Princess Ji was lying on the bed sickly. When she saw him coming in, she straightened up and said, "Your Majesty is here, how is the matter? What did the father say?"
"You take good care of yourself and why are you bothering with those things?" Prince Ji sat down, looked at her sallow face, and said calmly.
Princess Ji said bitterly: "How can you not work hard? All the officials in Tingjiang Mansion are managed by my concubine and my cousin. If something happens, without their filial piety and money, it will also affect you, the prince."
.”
King Ji said calmly: "I can't be harmed. I have never seen their filial piety."
Princess Ji was startled, "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"
Prince Ji looked at her and said expressionlessly: "Everyone around me can testify that I have never touched this silver."
Princess Ji's face changed slightly, her shoulders slowly slumped, and she said dullly: "That's right, the prince has never touched this money, it was all collected by me, and it was me who worked in tandem with my cousin to take advantage of the prince. It's just that this
If I say it, will my father believe it? Will all the civil and military officials believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it? The princess's natal family has purchased countless fields, shops, and manors over the years. As long as we investigate, we can naturally get to the bottom of it." Prince Ji said gloomily.
Princess Ji took a breath, with sadness and anger in her eyes, "The matter has not reached its worst yet, and the prince is already thinking of pushing me out to die, and he wants me to implicate my natal family? My natal family's money is all
My second brother earned it from business."
"Doing business? Yes, your eldest brother has done a lot of business in the past years in the Ministry of Household Affairs, but can he withstand careful inspection? Is it money for lending or money for business? Your eldest brother borrowed the name of your second brother.
If you really want to check your business, wouldn't your father be able to find out?" King Ji sneered.
