Towards the end of the new year, the things in the chaotang hall have to be handed over one after another to prepare for the new year's festival.
But at this time, Dali Temple received a letter of paper accusing the crown prince of abusing power for personal gain and neglecting human life.
The man Dynasty was in an uproar.
If it's a normal case like this, everyone laughs it off. After all, I'm in a high position. How can I have no unclean lives in my hands for a few days.
But it was Zheng Qingtai, not an ordinary person, who sued the crown prince. Although the document to be promoted to the second grade official position had not been issued, no one knew the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. The senior official of zhengerpin sued the current crown prince. This case can not be easily fooled.
Moreover, those people in the Zheng family knew what was going on. When he was sent to Beijing, he thought he would not come back to the capital in his life. How do you know that it was only four years before he came back and did such a big thing.
Ordinary people only need to find Jing Zhaoyin to complain, and Shuntian mansion is not a decoration, but Dali temple is responsible for the official cases and the previous private salt cases like the Su family.
I'm afraid it's been a bad year.
The emperor was so angry that he ordered the Dali temple to investigate the matter, and specially appointed Prince Duan to follow up the matter. He also ordered the prince to be banned from the east palace. As a result, he was not allowed to leave the East Palace until he came out.
"Will the emperor really be willing to thoroughly investigate this matter?" Su Zixuan wondered. After all, this is his own son. If he really finds out something, it will be a great blow to the crown prince's reputation.
"Of course not, but this matter has been exposed. He has to make a thorough investigation just to keep the civil and military cold in the Manchu Dynasty." Chu Yixuan tasted tea and drank it with Su Zixuan. After drinking too much, he gradually fell in love with the smell of purple clothes and clouds.
"Isn't uncle Duan there? He will do it at the critical moment."
"Even so, will this matter have an impact on the prince?" Su Zixuan was worried. Although she was happy to see the prince suffer, after knowing that the emperor would protect the prince, she could not help worrying about whether Zheng Qingtai could retreat from this matter.
"There must be. He can't walk away from it. Even if he can push it clean, don't forget, there is the great prince." Chu Yixuan smiled. This matter is a truth and retribution for Zheng Qingtai, but it's a good time for him to drag both of them into the water.
"Isn't lord Zheng unable to tell the truth." Su Zixuan still couldn't hold back. Even if it happened on several sides, she also felt that Zheng Qingtai was a good official and an honest official who could work for the well-being of the people. But if such a good official stayed dormant for several years, there was no evidence to punish the real murderer, where would he go in the future.
"What I told him about this, the best result is to drag the Yao family into the water, and the crown prince is at most lax in his defense, allowing his men to be bought by the Yao family, and asking interested people to spread rumors."
"Other things can only be seen step by step, but fortunately, the great prince can't not pour oil on this matter. After we expose the things to the Prince later, the two people must have a fight." Chu Yixuan sighed, "it depends on how far they can fight and what adults Zheng are satisfied with."
After hearing this, Su Zixuan was just silent. She continued to wash the tea lamps in her hands and cook tea. Thinking of these power and skill disputes, she felt very dangerous.
Moreover, everyone is prosperous and everyone loses. If something happens to the people above, the people below will also suffer. If something goes wrong at the bottom, it will also affect the people at the top.
It's just that people choose their own way. Complacency and frustration are common.
She was only worried about Chu Yixuan. If this matter was not handled well, it would be known. If it was exposed at that time, it would easily lead to the retaliation of the two families.
"Don't worry about me," Chu Yixuan said suddenly, as if he could guess what she was thinking.
"I've been planning this for a long time, and there won't be any mistakes. Now, the lady can still be the princess of Jin safely." he paused, "but after that, she may have to worry more."
"I see. Just let go of what you do," Su Zixuan replied with a smile, and her heart stabilized because of Chu Yixuan's words.
Chu Yixuan smiled as he watched Su Zixuan wash his hands and cook tea for him. In a moment, he remembered another thing.
"Recently, the border has been provoked again, and there will certainly be a fight in the court. In particular, the eldest prince may want to mention going to war. Remember to remind your father-in-law that if the Ministry of household and father-in-law mention food and grass, don't answer."
"That's why the Treasury was full of money when you collected money years ago. Where would you find the Su family first?" Su Zixuan frowned and didn't understand Chu Yixuan's meaning.
"I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. In addition to supporting the army, the money in the Treasury should also be responsible for other large and small expenses. The annual disaster relief money alone is a large amount. Now the Treasury still has money, but if you want to fight, it must be more than one or two years. Who knows what will happen at that time." Chu Yixuan said.
"Once the father-in-law feels that there is an opportunity to supply some food and grass, it will only become more and more unscrupulous."
Su Zixuan smiled, "you seem to be doing this so that you don't let the Su family suffer losses. You can't even fight a war. But if there is a war, the Su family will not waste their food and grass for their own sake."
"Then you know my real intention," Chu Yixuan smiled. He just knew the Su family's temperament, so he advised them not to answer anything now.
