Chapter 1079
The fifth prince walked to the door of the room and was about to ask the maid for questioning, but he caught a glimpse of Tong Yuwen with a boy carrying a food box from far to near.

Walking to the eaves, the servant handed the food box to the palace maid who guarded the gate.

Tong Yuwen looked at the maid and said, "Serve the princess while it's hot." Turning to look at the fifth prince, he explained. "Let the kitchen cook tonics for Huiyi."

The fifth prince nodded in satisfaction, and watched the palace lady enter the room carrying the food box.Glancing at Tong Yuwen, he said, "Go, go to your study."

Tong Yuwen immediately led the way.

After coming to the study and sitting down, Tong Yuwen ordered the maid to serve tea.

After serving the tea, the maid stepped back and closed the study door behind her.

The fifth prince finished drinking a cup of tea, then looked at Tong Yuwen and asked suddenly: "My prince caused you to lose a child, do you have any complaints?"

Tong Yuwen quickly put down the teacup and knelt in front of the Fifth Prince. "It's purely an accident. I know very well that the fifth prince, you have always loved Hui Yi, so you would not harm her."

The fifth prince stared at Tong Yuwen and said meaningfully: "You should hate this prince."

Tong Yuwen knelt on the ground and remained silent.

The Fifth Prince stared at him with deep eyes.

After a while, Tong Yuwen slowly raised his head to meet the Fifth Prince's gaze. "At first I heard that you accidentally pushed Huiyi off the high platform, causing her to give birth prematurely. Xiaguan did have some complaints in his heart. But when he saw the freak, Xiaguan lost his mind."

The fifth prince nodded his head unobtrusively. This is the reaction that a normal person should have. "You didn't tell Huiyi about the freak, the prince is very relieved, you get up."

Tong Yuwen stood up but bowed his head all the time.

The fifth prince glanced at him and said: "Don't blame Huiyi, folks often have women who give birth to freaks, it's nothing unusual." It's just that the women who gave birth to freaks have a miserable end, and they were arrested together with the freaks. Burned alive.

Tong Yuwen was silent.

The Fifth Prince looked him squarely at him and suddenly asked, "Can you believe the rumors of unrequited love?"

Tong Yuwen: "...The officer suspects that someone deliberately spread rumors to hurt you."

The fifth prince raised his mouth in satisfaction, stood up, and patted his shoulder with his hand. "I leave this matter to you to find out." He strode away.

Tong Yuwen turned to face the back of the fifth prince leaving, and shouted. "Yes!" He chased after him again, and personally sent the fifth prince out of the gate.

On the way back, he was called to his parents' house by his servants.

Tong's mother couldn't wait to ask: "The fifth prince still has face! Did he admonish you again for the sake of the fifth princess?"

Tong's father sat on the chair calmly and did not speak.

Tong Yuwen took the initiative to explain to his parents that it was he who asked his servants to notify the fifth prince to come to the door.

Mother Tong asked: "We don't need to ask about the freak, but what's going on between her and the fifth prince? Yu'er! Tell the truth!"

Tong Yuwen acquiesced.

Tong's mother staggered back two or three steps, and suddenly turned around and stared at Tong's father complaining after being hit hard. "If you hadn't followed the wrong prime minister and lost your position, how could Yu'er have wronged herself and asked to marry the fifth princess! Now that there is such a scandal in the family, we can only smash our teeth and swallow it with blood!"

Tong's father said nothing with a tense face.

Tong Yuwen quickly persuaded: "Mother, don't blame father, I agreed voluntarily at the beginning." He was poisoned and asked to marry the fifth princess to get the antidote!It's just that I can't tell my parents clearly!
Tong's mother held Tong Yuwen with tears in her eyes and cried softly, not daring to speak loudly, for fear that the servants in the courtyard would hear.She felt that her son was too miserable!

Tong Yuwen had no choice but to send Tong's mother back to her room, waited for her to rest, and then turned back to find Tong's father.

Tong Fu still sat in his original position without moving.

Tong Yuwen looked at Tong's father and said, "Father, mother has rested. Don't blame her, she also loves the child."

Tong's father suddenly asked: "Jing Rong was promoted to prime minister, have you sent any gifts?"

Tong Yuwen: "...too many things have happened in the past two days, and my child has forgotten it in a moment of negligence."

Tong's father said meaningfully: "You go to give the gift in person, this is the right time." The other ministers should have left long ago,
Seeing Tong's father's strange expression, Tong Yuwen felt a thump in his heart, and suddenly blurted out, "Father, you belong to the prince?!"

Father Tong shook his head with deep eyes. "Before becoming a father, he was indeed the prime minister Zhuo Shiqing, but after losing his official position, he was unwilling to stay at home, and secretly asked Jing Rong.

Most of the evidence of Zhuo Shiqing's rebellion was provided for his father.

He promises to be the father.

When he became prime minister, he would return to his original post as his father.

You go to give gifts in the name of the father, remind him. "He took out a gift list that had been written long ago from his cuff and handed it over.

Tong Yuwen: "...Oh, baby, I will do it now." He reached out to take the gift list and turned to leave.

According to the items on the gift list, Tong Yuwen directed the housekeeper to take them out of the warehouse and put them into two boxes.

After checking, the lid was closed again, and then four strong young men were ordered to come in, lifted the cage and put it into the carriage, and then rode the carriage to the gate of a mansion.

After getting out of the carriage, he looked up with a complicated expression and looked at the former Mei Mansion which has now become the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the plaque has been changed several times in just a few months.

He ordered the servant to come forward and hand over the greeting card, and stood outside the gate to wait.

The housekeeper Qing had just sent off the rascal brown sugar prince, and was about to go back to the house, when his servants came to ask her to hand over a greeting card.She came to Jinmoju with the letter of invitation, and handed it to Zhuo Nan who was learning how to make a bellyband from Nanny Qian.

Zhuo Nan asked without raising his head: "Whose greeting card? If it's congratulations to Fox for becoming prime minister, go to the study to find him, and don't bother me."

"It's an invitation from Tong's mansion." The steward Qing didn't respond when Zhuo Nan saw Zhuo Nan, so he took the invitation to the study and handed it to Jing Rong.

After reading it, Jing Rong casually threw the greeting card aside and told the butler Qing, "Keep the congratulatory gift."

So... the sad Tong Yuwen came to visit with two boxes of heavy gifts, and the congratulatory gifts were carried in by the servants, but he was turned away....

Tong Yuwen went home angrily and told Tong's father,
Father Tong smiled.

Three days later, the Royal Study Room.

The prince asked Jing Rong who was promoted from Minister of Punishment to Prime Minister, and who should take his vacated position.

Jing Rong recommended Father Tong, former Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, on the grounds that most of the evidence of the former Prime Minister Zhuo Shiqing's rebellion was secretly provided by him.

The prince squinted at Jing Rong, and asked after a moment of silence: "Is this person trustworthy?"

Jing Rong smiled and said nothing.

So on the second day, Tong's father was reinstated, and the court was in an uproar!
The fifth prince immediately suspected that Tong's father belonged to the prince, and secretly called Tong Yuwen to the restaurant for questioning.

Tong Yuwen admitted without hesitation, and promised that he would only be loyal to the Fifth Prince.

The fifth prince was dubious, and after leaving the restaurant and returning to the mansion, he ordered someone to send a message to the fifth princess, asking her to help closely monitor the movements of Tong's mansion.

The five princesses replied and agreed!
