Ever since the war with the Tatar tribe was settled, the court has been very peaceful. Regardless of whether it is a major court meeting or a small court meeting, the back and forth is just a dispute over some trivial matters.
After all, last year has been uneven since the beginning of the year. First there was the big case in Jiangnan Road, and then there was the case of losing copper. After finally finishing the copper export case, I thought it would calm down for a while, but then the border became uneasy again.
After the Tata'er tribe was also repelled and the nearby Longxi grassland was taken over by Dayan, the marriage of the young Marquis of Pingyang, which attracted much attention from nobles in the capital, was settled.
Perhaps it was because the beginning of the fifth year of Jingyuan was a happy event, and the court had always been very stable, so everyone felt that the fifth year of Jingyuan would be a peaceful year.
However, the thoughts of the ministers in the court were quickly shattered by a memorial from the Yushitai.
"My advisor Chen Haosu, the Marquis of Jiang, committed illegal acts, bribed the governor of Danzhou, and invaded the ancestral temple!"
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the court, but as Emperor Jingyuan coughed, the court immediately became quiet.
Everyone watched with eyes, nose, nose and heart, and at most they exchanged looks with their friends standing near them.
Because this Xinjiang Marquis Chen Hao is none other than the biological brother of Concubine Shu and the biological uncle of Princess Jianing, the only emperor of the country.
Marquis Xinjiang did not have any actual duties in the court. On weekdays, he was just a little extravagant because of his sister who was the fourth wife.
He didn't have the guts to take bribes, bend the law, and use power to bully others. Moreover, Princess Jianing had an extremely good relationship with her uncle. Although Marquis Xinjiang spent the whole day in Danzhou, drinking, drinking, and arrogant, Yushitai would turn a blind eye. Close one eye.
Emperor Jingyuan didn't say anything. Marquis Xin Jiang was considered a relative. Although Concubine Shu didn't have a prince, she still had some dignity in the palace.
But invading the ancestral temple is not a trivial matter. Let alone a relative with no real power, even the prince who is deeply loved by the emperor probably would not have the courage to do it.
Although it was only in Danzhou, this crime was much more serious than corruption and bending the law. After all, invading the ancestral temple was a sign of ignoring etiquette and contempt for the royal family.
The expressions of all the ministers in the court were different. Most of them were thinking in their hearts. They didn't expect that Marquis Xinjiang didn't seem very courageous on weekdays, yet he would do such a big thing.
Zhou Ning presented the memorial from the Yushitai to Emperor Jingyuan. After reading it, Emperor Jingyuan looked very calm, but the emperor's heart was unpredictable, and no one could say whether the emperor was already very angry.
"The Wu Hou Si went to Danzhou to investigate the matter strictly. The relevant persons were brought to the capital to be handed over to Dali Temple for trial." Emperor Jingyuan paused and continued: "Perhaps I believe Jianghou Shangshu will make his own defense."
After saying this, Emperor Jingyuan glanced at Zhou Ning. Zhou Ning on the side quickly sang loudly: "If there is nothing to do, I will retreat from the court."
With the important matter of Xin Jianghou in front of him, others naturally had nothing to say, and today's small court meeting ended just like that.
What happened in the court was spread very quickly after the court. Soon, everyone in the capital and the harem heard about the involvement of Marquis Xinjiang.
Concubine Shu only has one sibling brother. Although Chen Hao likes luxury and is not very promising, the relationship between the siblings has always been very good.
When she first heard that her brother had been involved, she immediately wanted to ask to see Emperor Jingyuan, but Emperor Jingyuan did not see her.
But after all, Concubine Shu had been with him for so many years, Emperor Jingyuan still asked the queen to tell her that he would let Wuhousi investigate the case impartially and would never wrongly accuse his brother.
But the implication is that if it is found out, the emperor will not be merciful because of his old relationship.
Concubine Shu sat in her Yeting Palace and thought for a long time. Finally, she called her personal female officer and asked her to send a handwritten letter from her to Danyang. Yuan Miaoyi, who was still living in Rong'anhou's mansion, had already known about the news that Concubine Shu's younger brother Xin Jianghou Benben was present at the court meeting today before Xiao Yunyue went to court.
While she was carefully taking care of the Jianlan plant, she made a gentle hum and asked the messenger to step back.
Aunt Cui on the side asked cautiously: "Is this matter related to the young Marquis?"
Aunt Cui already knew what happened in the palace a few days ago, so she couldn't help but guess when someone came specifically to report the matter to Yuan Miaoyi.
Yuan Miaoyi put down the small flower shovel in her hand, clapped her hands and said, "It's almost the same."
In fact, Yuan Miaoyi didn't care about the follow-up to what happened in the palace that day. It was just a trivial matter to her, but Xiao Yunyue obviously didn't think so.
After hearing this, Aunt Cui sighed: "Young Master Xiaohou really takes you into his heart."
It's just that someone used Fengyue's incident to trick her, and she was so angry just because she was afraid that Yuan Miaoyi would be unhappy.
Yuan Miaoyi chuckled lightly and said, "I know."
While the master and servant were talking, they heard someone outside calling "Master Hou". It was Xiao Yunyue who had just left the court and arrived home.
When Xiao Yunyue raised the curtain and came in, there was still a smile on his face. This was a good look that was rare in the eyes of outsiders these days.
Aunt Cui put a new pot of tea in the room and left so that the young couple could talk.
Yuan Miaoyi poured a cup of tea for Xiao Yunyue with her own hands and said with a smile: "Why, does it make you happy just because someone bought a copy of Xin Jianghou?"
Xiao Yunyue was not surprised that his wife knew that it was his handiwork behind this. After he sat down, he took the tea cup from Yuan Miaoyi's hand and said: "Of course, if Jianing dares to trick me in the palace, I will naturally return it. "
The people who originally came back from southern Xinjiang brought the news that Princess Jianing had raised many faces in Danyang and acted domineeringly. Zhang Zhao thought that it would be better to let people take part in Princess Jianing's misbehavior.
But this idea was quickly rejected by Xiao Yunyue.
Princess Jianing is an imperial concubine, so what does it matter if she has a few faces?
Moreover, if we hold on to this matter, it will easily hurt the reputation of Danyang County Prince and Pingyi Marquis. Xiao Yunyue did not want to harm innocent people.
So he asked people to continue to investigate, not just Princess Jianing, but Concubine Shu and Concubine Shu's natal family.
It's just that Xiao Yunyue didn't expect that Marquis Xinjiang would be so bold, or maybe Marquis Xinjiang didn't even know that it was the place where the ancestral temple was located.
Princess Shen Jianing's misbehavior was nothing more than a minor offense, but it was not as shocking as the serious crime of invading the ancestral temple between Shen and her close uncle Xin Jianghou.
This time it was Marquis Xinjiang who participated. If it happens again, Xiao Yunyue will directly trouble Concubine Shu. He wanted to see if Jianing would have time to think about these things when his mother was removed from her position as the fourth wife.
