Wan Gui returned to Beijing, and the situation in Kyoto changed drastically.

As early as a few months ago, officials in the DPRK and China who were involved in the conspiracy were either imprisoned by Dongchang and persecuted or murdered all over the family.

Before and after King Yu's wedding, the rebellion gradually subsided, and everyone in the capital thought that the rebellion would end.

Unexpectedly, once Wan Guiquan returned to Beijing, he soon pointed Dongchang's finger at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and presented to the emperor one by one those who had advised the Zhang family in the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

"Your Majesty, these people are admonishing the Zhang family for no reason. If there is really something wrong with their hearts, they need to be thoroughly investigated as soon as possible!"

The emperor felt that Wan Guiquan acted harshly, but he also maintained a semblance of reason.

After Su Youning's words about his dissatisfaction with Su Zhixing earlier, he had his own considerations.

A few days ago, because Dongchang Wangui was not in the capital, the emperor entrusted the investigation of Su Zhixing to the guards.

The news from the Arch Guard Division: Su Zhixing has never done anything rebellious, and the matter of the Zhang family is probably only due to his duty.

The emperor thought about it carefully, and the guard's report was indeed good.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate has the responsibility to speak up and speak out. When Zhang's family was destroyed, Dongchang's behavior was extreme and made everyone in Kyoto feel insecure.

"Aiqing is really overcorrecting. The duty of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is to give advice, so there is no need to waste effort."

Wan Guiquan was dissatisfied in his heart, this time when he returned to Beijing, he pointed his finger at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so naturally he had his plan, if he didn't pull some people off his horse, how could he install his people!
Simply bluntly say that it is better to kill by mistake than to let go of the conspiracy, so that the Southern Dynasty can last forever.

The emperor was stubborn, but Dongchang led by Wan Guiquan helped him get rid of a lot of serious troubles, since he wants to investigate thoroughly, let's investigate again.

"Since that's the case, do as Aiqing said, but the censors are civil servants, and Aiqing also ordered the people below not to act too harshly."

The emperor also knew that people who entered Dongchang would lose a layer of skin even if they did not die!

With this order, Dongchang will clearly arrest people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate!

For a while, everyone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate was in danger, but none of them dared to speak falsely in the face of Wan Gui who had returned to Beijing.

As the censor of Zuodu, Su Zhixing can still protect himself, but the others in the Metropolitan Procuratorate are having a hard time.

He also kept telling the emperor that everyone in the Metropolitan Procuratorate will take the Southern Dynasty as the first, and there will be no rebellion, asking the emperor to think twice, but every time his memorials are rejected intact.

Shen Moli of the Arch Guard Division also felt the pressure.

The matter of Su Zhixing was reported to the emperor after his investigation, so he can guarantee that the report is true, but he is afraid that Wan Guiquan already has a purpose in his heart at this moment, even if he is not dead in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he will be dismissed and investigated several times indivual.

Sure enough, within three days of the order of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to conduct a thorough investigation, a deputy capital censor and a Liandu censor were dismissed for investigation.

Fortunately, the emperor suddenly changed his mind, so the evil fire in Dongchang didn't burn up any more, otherwise, if it goes on like this, the whole army of the Procuratorate might be wiped out.

When Shen Moli was worried about Su's trip to Su's family, he suddenly received news that Dongchang's thorough investigation of the Metropolitan Procuratorate ended with the dismissal of two metropolitan censors.

Just as Shen Moli breathed a sigh of relief, the people from Dongchang personally approached the arch guard.

"Duke Wan returned to the capital for the first time, and to celebrate the appointment of the new commander of the Shenyang Commander, he specially hosted a banquet for Mr. Shen at the Dongjiu Factory."

Naturally, Shen Moli had no reason to refuse, and immediately took Wuying and followed the messenger to the East Factory.

Wan Guiquan's four godsons personally greeted Shen Moli at the gate of the East Factory.

During this banquet, Wan Guiquan declared to the public that both Dongchang and the Gongwei Division were subordinates who were investigating cases for the emperor, and now that Shen Moli was taking office as a new official, Dongchang was willing to get closer to the Gongwei Division.

Shen Moli guessed Wan Guiquan's plan.

Before Wan Guiquan returned to the capital, most of the officials in the capital were sent to prison for investigation, and once he returned to the capital, he killed two censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

This time he left the capital under the pretense of inspecting for the emperor, but in fact he was contacting his disciples from various places. Now that there are many vacancies for officials in the capital, people who want to come to Wanguiquan are about to come to Beijing from various places in the Southern Dynasty.

Since Shen Moli took over as the commander of the Gongwei Division, he has never taken any action to stop Dongchang from doing anything, even Wuying beside him doesn't understand. , but since he took office, the Ministry of Defense has become more and more silent.

The Guards Department of the East Factory never intervened, and would never take credit for tasks in front of the emperor. Everyone in the Guards Department could not help worrying that the momentum of the East Factory would overwhelm the Guards Department.

No one knew that Shen Moli had his own purpose.

It is not the best policy to fight against Wan Guiquan for a while, but let Wan Guiquan take more precautions against the guards.

Now that Wan Guiquan is gaining momentum in the court, it would be better for Wan Guiquan to think that he, Shen Moli, is young, and serving as the commander of the Guard Division is just an errand for him to glorify his family.

Even though Wan Guiquan had taboos against the Arch Guard Division, if Shen Moli did not act on the surface, Wan Guiquan would naturally be less careful.

These days, Shen Moli carefully sorted out the situation in the previous dynasty.

In the previous life, Wan Guiquan first joined Empress Lu and used Empress Lu and the Lu family to stabilize his position in Dongchang and the court.

In the year when the emperor of the Southern Dynasty was critically ill, Chu Yu, the third prince favored by the emperor, offended Empress Lu and Prime Minister Lu for some unknown reason, and was accused of interfering in the government affairs and framing the prince. The emperor vomited blood on the spot, and it seemed that there was no saying that the emperor preferred the third highness.

And the Fourth Highness Chu Nan died quietly in his mansion for some reason.

Although he was not the prince raised by his side, he was his own son after all. The successive blows caused the emperor, who was already in short supply, to suddenly fall ill.

Wan Guiquan's henchmen joined forces with the Lu clan's henchmen to kill and punish many loyal and patriotic courtiers.

That year, there was a bloodbath in Kyoto, and the Su Mansion was copied and beheaded.

Seeing Su Youning falling down in the snow in a horrific death state with his own eyes, Shen Moli, who had endured for three years, couldn't hold on any longer. Once he fell ill, he followed Su Youning within a few days.

In this life, Shen Moli probably guessed the ending of the Southern Dynasty without even thinking about it.

The older princes were deposed and dead, and only the young princes succeeded to the crown prince.

Wan Guiquan would not allow anyone to share the power with him equally, and would definitely deal with the Lu clan harshly, so that Empress Lu would lose her previous reliance.

Even after the death of the first emperor and the young prince succeeding to the throne, she still only has the position of empress dowager, and Wan Guiquan's henchmen are all in the court, and from then on, he is the only one who can secretly control the government.

Even if it was over and started again, Shen Moli still couldn't help feeling chills as long as he recalled the changes in the capital of the Southern Dynasties that year.

In this life, besides helping his father to find the person who harmed him, and protecting Su Youning and the Su Mansion, Shen Moli would return the Southern Dynasty from Wan Guiquan to the Chu family if he had spare energy.

At the Dongchang banquet, although Shen Moli was indifferent, he was full of admiration for Wan Guiquan in words, which made Wan Guiquan feel extremely satisfied.

The previous Commander of the Guard Division had fought with him endlessly, but now the one in front of him knows the current affairs.

The situation in the capital city is unpredictable, but there is no disturbance in Keyu Palace.

Su Youning counted the days and it was time to perform acupuncture for Chu Yu again.

Ever since the Empress Dowager sent Madam Xia to deliver the things and left the Luoxue Pavilion, the servants and maids in the mansion have indeed been more polite to Su Youning.

Although she had never been called Princess Yu, everyone would stop and salute when they saw her.

In recent days, no one dared to stop Su Youning from going to the main courtyard, but it was very strange that she had just stepped into the main courtyard today, but there was no one in the courtyard.

Looking at the quiet main courtyard and the half-hidden door of the side room, Su Youning wanted to go in and find out.
