Yusui Chang'an

If Earl Hong'an was present, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple would probably give him some face. What was there to be afraid of just a few guards?
What's more, he had received the news early and was waiting, so he should do the job after receiving the money.

Hearing the guards bring up their master, the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple spoke sternly and righteously, saying that he would handle the case as long as the drum for reporting was struck. He ignored the guards' shouting and detained several people.

Less than half an hour after Zhu Dianhua entered the palace, the Dali Temple summoned Earl Hong'an.

Chu Chengyao's face was full of impatience:
"Zhu Dianhua went to the Dali Temple to sue his biological father? This bastard is always causing trouble!"

Zhong Yi: "Not only did I sue Lord Hong An for poisoning his wife, I also... I also sued you..."

Chu Chengyao was surprised and angry when he heard this:
"Sue me? Sue me for what?"

"I'm accusing you of...forming a clique with Lord Hong'an for many years, plotting a rebellion. Many years ago, I detained He Lan in Lord Hong'an's brothel, intending to frame Qin Zongheng...

You are accused of colluding with the prefect of Jingzhao, ignoring the law and releasing prisoners privately, and you are also accused of colluding with the Earl of Hong'an to poison his biological mother..."

Chu Chengyao had never committed the last two crimes, so he was not afraid of framing him if he could find evidence. However, the first two were facts, and Chu Chengyao was so angry that he almost broke the table:

"I have repeatedly warned him not to say a word to anyone! This old man actually told his dandy son about such an important matter! In my current situation, I should just lie low and wait, but this blind man dared to cause trouble!"

Chu Chengyao knew that this matter was strange and that Zhu Dianhua was probably being used by someone, but he still couldn't let go of his murderous intent and forced himself to calm down and think of a countermeasure.

Zhong Yi said with relief:
"At present, Earl Hong'an has gone to the Dali Temple. Although he is not a good person, he is loyal to Your Highness and will not betray Your Highness."

Chu Chengyao: "Loyalty? Don't you know how much he loves Zhu Dianhua? For the sake of his blind son, his loyalty may not be reliable..." Suddenly, Chu Chengyao's eyes lit up in anger:
"No, he has a son! Go and call Song Yi! Also, send a message to Chen Qingshan immediately and ask him to check the prisoners quickly to see if there is anything wrong and think of a way to deal with it in advance."

Watching Zhong Yi's hurried departure, Chu Chengyao clenched his teeth. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that this was Qin Zongliang's work...

When and how did this guy know that Chen Qingshan and Hong Anbo were his people?
Could it be that the person who plotted against his men in Fengming Mountain many years ago and ruined his plans several times was also Qin Zongliang?
Thinking of this, Chu Chengyao felt even more frightened:
If it really was Qin Zongliang, this person would not be able to stay for a moment.

Thinking about his bargaining chips, Chu Chengyao called the butler:
"Go and tell her that I have completed my mission and will be returning from the Ministry of Personnel soon. The Crown Prince has framed me and my residence will be sealed for a period of time. Once the truth is uncovered, the Crown Prince will lose his power."

The housekeeper was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he realized that this "she" was referring to Zhou Yuexue:

Is the princess going to regain favor?

The housekeeper didn't ask any more questions. He agreed and was about to pass on the message, but was stopped by Chu Chengyao:

"Inform everyone in the mansion, and don't let anything slip."

Salt Transportation Department.

With the recommendation of Zheng Xiangheng and Meng Jie, and the guarantor of Salt Transport Commissioner Tang Ge Lao, An Zhixian joined the Salt Transport Bureau today as a seventh-rank salt permit officer, responsible for the approval and proofreading of salt permits.

Although he was just a minor official, he was still an official. He was in high spirits and invited all his colleagues to a banquet for drinks, especially Tang Ge Lao, Zheng Xiangheng and Meng Jie.

Tang Ge Lao was not happy about the noise and did not show up, but he asked his butler to personally bring two cans of good wine, giving An Zhixian enough face. (End of this chapter)
