Early the next morning, Li Yuhua and Mu Anzhi rode into the palace as usual to pay their respects to Queen Mother Lan. She was famous for being unimpeded in all weathers. No matter whether it was pouring rain or heavy snow, she could not stop the third princess from entering the palace every day.
No one else could beat her in greeting her. Li Yuhua had a good body, and most of the other concubines and princesses had been raised since childhood and were not as aggressive as Li Yuhua.
Not to mention that Queen Mother Lan was already partial to this young couple. Even if they just had a common affection, they were so diligent, and over time, she would develop some affection for them.
Queen Mother Lan was also used to Li Yuhua coming to greet her every day and talk. Li Yuhua liked to talk about things outside, while Queen Mother Lan liked to hear about things outside.
The eldest princess Fengyang was staying at Ci'en Palace for dinner today. Anyway, the eldest princess was not an outsider. Li Yuhua served first and served a dish with chopsticks to Queen Mother Lan. Queen Mother Lan smiled and said, "Sit down, you are so polite."
"My granddaughter-in-law serves me sincerely, and I am not rude to you." Li Yuhua also asked Queen Mother Lan to send two dishes to her third brother, "These duck meat rolls with pea paste are always inferior to the chefs in our house.
This is my favorite dish at the Imperial Grandma’s house, and I don’t even use chopsticks in our house.”
Queen Mother Lan had always felt sorry for Mu Anzhi and said, "This Chinese New Year, the government office is the busiest. You really need to eat well, don't lose your health."
"Their yamen was not busy at first, but it happened to coincide with the case of Nan'an Marquis Mansion, so it became busy." Li Yuhua said naturally, "I heard from the third brother that the case is about to be closed."
Princess Fengyang said, "Ignore other things, An Zhi concluded the case neatly."
"This case is actually not complicated. There are both witnesses and material evidence. Yesterday, Zhou Yiren was sent to jail. Despite her arrogance in the past, in prison, the evidence is solid, so I'm afraid she won't be able to quibble." Li Yuhua lamented,
"I heard that when the Zhou family was summoned for the first time to inquire about the case, the Zhou family was extremely ostentatious. There were about twenty maids, wives, servants, and bodyguards. They were all in the eighth-level diary. They just said that they could not enter the torture chamber with such people. At that time
That made Mrs. Zhou's mouth twitch. Looking back on how arrogant she was back then, I wonder what Mrs. Zhou is thinking now."
Queen Mother Lan said calmly, "Such an ignorant woman should be dealt with according to the national law."
"It can be considered that evil is punished." Princess Fengyang said, "This case will be settled before the year, right?"
"I heard from Third Brother that it's almost settled." Li Yuhua glanced around and said to Queen Mother Lan, "Grandma, I have something confidential to tell you."
Queen Mother Lan asked the palace servants to go down, but she smiled, "Why is it so confidential?"
"It doesn't look like it's a secret right now, but I always feel like I have to be careful."
Princess Fengyang smiled, "If you want, I'll avoid it too."
"Auntie is not an outsider, so she can be more careful in the future, but she can't tell anyone about this matter." Li Yuhua warned her repeatedly, which aroused the curiosity of Princess Fengyang, Queen Mother Lan. Li Yuhua revealed the relationship between Aunt Yuan and Zhou Yiren.
He also told the story of Aunt Yuan's job as a clerk in the Salesian Bureau, "I always feel that this matter is a bit coincidental. The previous cases in the Salesian Bureau were not able to be pursued further because many of the predecessors had passed away.
Now it's brought up again. That Zhou Yiren is the concubine that Prince Hu loves and has two children. If Princess Xin'an hadn't been so lucky, she wouldn't have been able to straighten up her concubine and become a serious wife in the future. I shudder when I think about it."
"How many more things like this are there? Am I overthinking it? I have no idea, so I will come over quickly and tell the imperial grandmother." Li Yuhua said, which made Princess Fengyang stop eating her chopsticks.
Queen Mother Lan stirred the bamboo fungus and jasmine soup in the bowl, "What did Ashen say?"
"Third brother said it doesn't matter whether he has anything to do with it or not, anything can be found out with severe punishment."
Queen Mother Lan smiled, "Then let Ah Shen review it."
The palace attendants quietly left. Queen Mother Lan had to rest for a while after the meal. Princess Fengyang looked out the window at the palace people going in and out of the side hall. That was the room where Li Yuhua rested at noon. Princess Fengyang said with a smile, "
The third daughter-in-law is really married. It’s rare that Yuhua is so filial and clever. The third child marries her and has a virtuous wife."
"This is Ashen's blessing." Queen Mother Lan took a slow sip from the teacup, "The most important thing for a human being is to have a right heart."
To use an inappropriate analogy, Li Yuhua's family has been very poor since he was a child, which is probably a little worse than that of the Zhou family. However, Li Yuhua has a far-sighted and virtuous mother who knows how to teach her children.
Therefore, people like the Zhou family will do whatever it takes to get rich, and they can do any deed. Li Yuhua, on the other hand, works hard on his own to make money in an upright and upright manner. Of course, Li Yuhua also has ambitions, but his ambitions are just and aboveboard.
Not offensive.
The royal decree granted a marriage, and the Xu family dared Li to marry Tao. Empress Dowager Lan didn't pursue it further because she sent her confidants to the countryside to inquire about Li Yuhua in advance. Empress Dowager Lan had such good eyesight, Li Yuhua's appearance, family background, etc., she was chosen.
character.
Otherwise, using royal methods, if your Xu family dares to change someone, the royal family will violently kill the person you replace.
Princess Xin'an's case was concluded quickly. Mu Anzhi compiled the case files and submitted them to Emperor Mu Xuan. Emperor Mu Xuan read the verdict and approved it. He rarely showed a good face to Mu Anzhi, "This case was handled well.
"
"It is the duty of a minister."
Emperor Mu Xuan glanced at Mu An and sent him away.
The Ministry of Punishment was just outside the imperial city. As soon as Mu Anzhi left the royal study and arrived at the Ministry of Punishment, he saw Huan Li coming out of the concierge and bowing deeply to Mu Anzhi. Mu Anzhi nodded, "Young Master Hu, you don't have to be so polite. You
What are you doing at the Ministry of Justice?"
"The common people heard that my mother's case has been settled, so they came here to inquire about it."
Mu Anzhi strode in, and Huan Li stood beside him two steps behind. Mu Anzhi said to him, "Your Majesty just approved that a group of criminals should be dealt with according to the law. It's just that it's not easy to kill people this year. We have to wait until next autumn."
"
Huan Li quickly walked two steps to Mu Anzhi, and this time he bowed his arms to the ground, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will copy a copy of the verdict and go back immediately to report it to my mother."
Mu Anzhi could feel the strong affection between mother and son. He smiled and sighed, "Go ahead. Tell your mother that you can have a good baby. If she is still healthy, the princess will go over and talk tomorrow."
Huan Li was overjoyed, with a trace of gratitude flashing in his eyes, "Yes. Cao Min's mother is fine. I will welcome you to the Queen tomorrow. I will not disturb Your Highness. I will leave."
Huan Li quickly returned home and hurried all the way to the small courtyard. On a rare sunny day, Princess Xin'an was basking in the sun with Grandma Wang in the small courtyard. Seeing Huan Li hurrying into the door, Princess Xin'an laughed, "What's the matter?"
So urgent?"
"Mother, the sentence from the Ministry of Punishments has been handed down." Huan Li took out the copied verdict from his arms and gave it to his mother. Princess Xin'an looked at it roughly in the sky, folded it up and put it in her sleeve, patted the couch and asked her son to sit down.
He said, "It was expected, but I am not so happy."
Aunt Wang brought hot tea, and Huan Li took a sip. He was still young, and no matter how mature he was, he still had a youthful air. Huan Li said, "The Third Highness said that if my mother is in good health, the third prince and concubine will come over tomorrow to talk."
"The third prince's concubine?" Princess Xin'an suppressed her surprise and thought for a moment, "Is she the daughter of Minister Xu's family?"
"Yes. She is the eldest daughter of Mr. Xu's first wife. She was raised in her hometown. His Majesty granted marriage to the eldest daughter of Mr. Xu and made him his concubine. The third prince and the empress are very affectionate. There are rumors in the imperial capital." Huan Li said, "
The third prince’s concubine is also very honest in her work. I heard that the third prince’s concubine visits Salesian Bureau, Juzicang, Anjifang, and Huimin Pharmacy once or twice every month.”
"This is a person who does things." Princess Xin'an smiled, "Since the queen is coming over, I asked Grandma Wang to make some cakes to prepare."
"Mother..." Huan Li asked, "Mother is not very happy."
"It's not that I'm not happy, I'm just a little disbelieving. His Highness the Third Prince was raised in Ci'en Palace when he was a child. Even now, I'm afraid he has to rely more on the Queen Mother's favor. As you know, the Queen Mother has always had some dissatisfaction with me. The Third Prince's Concubine came over.
It’s just a matter of face.”
Huan Li shook his head, "Mother, I feel that His Highness is not a person who cares about face."
"Tell me more about it."
Mu Anzhi told Li Yuhua about going to visit Princess Xin'an during dinner. Li Yuhua said, "I see, the imperial grandmother doesn't like Princess Xin'an very much. She has been doing this for so long, and even the verdict has been handed down.
What rewards have you received? It's quite cold. Do you really want to go?" She still relied on the third brother's opinion. Princess Xin'an was a relative of the third brother. If the third brother asked her to go, she would go. Li Yuhua knew this.
Very clear.
"It doesn't matter. I see that Mr. Hu is not a bad person, and Princess Xin'an will not be difficult to get along with."
Li Yuhua gave Mu Anzhi some green vegetables with chopsticks and asked, "If it hadn't been for this lawsuit, I wouldn't have known there was such a princess in the imperial capital. Why is Princess Xin'an so unhappy?"
"These are all old things." Mu Anzhi said casually, "King Xin is the late emperor's younger brother. King Xin was raised by the late emperor first-hand. He had a very deep relationship with the late emperor. He also had a close relationship with the late emperor's eldest son, Prince Zheng, and the other princes.
It’s different. It was Jinshang who was finally crowned the crown prince and ascended the throne as emperor.”
Li Yuhua picked up a meatball and asked tentatively, "Then you still want me to visit Princess Xin'an?"
"Both King Xin and King Zheng have passed away, and there are no descendants. It has been so long. Princess Xin'an is a female, and she has suffered such injustice. Shouldn't she go and see it? It's an ordinary family. Two families of the same clan don't get along, and one family
When someone suffers a misfortune, the other family should also go and take a look." Mu Anzhi said, "Bring some supplements to the princess tomorrow to see if she still lacks anything. Don't say anything and we will buy more."
"Sure." Li Yuhua agreed and said with a smile, "I don't think there is a kind-hearted person like you, Third Brother, in the entire imperial capital."
Mu Anzhi shook his head, disapprovingly, "What kind of kindness is this?"
Li Yuhua put the meatballs into Mu An's bowl, with a faint smile in her eyes. If the third brother hadn't been kind-hearted, she wouldn't have been able to frighten the third brother into marrying her. Since their wedding, the internal affairs have been all over the place.
She had the final say, and the third brother didn't ask a single question.
Some people may say that this is just etiquette. The mistress is in charge of the inner house, and this is how she comes to be.
There have been so many things like this. If you look at the Nan'an Marquis Mansion, where you doted on your concubines and killed your wives, you will know that not everyone can do it.
A kind-hearted person will always leave a trace of tenderness to the world.
This must be her third brother.
The author has something to say: ps: I feel very ashamed!
I don’t want to say anything anymore. I have found the reason for my recent weight gain. I broke my promise and gained weight. Let’s go to bed early. My schedule is very poor these days. Alas, I can’t make a wish. Good night everyone, I guess I won’t be able to write the second update in the early morning.
