There was a tall and graceful young man in a cloak under the banyan tree. He was talking to a young Taoist priest about something, which made the young Taoist priest look confused and embarrassed. He didn't know what to do. When he turned around and saw Su Yao and his group, his eyes suddenly lit up and he pointed over.
The young man had already turned around. Mother Shen, who had been following Su Yao closely, couldn't help but exclaimed, "It turns out that the one who sent us the letter just now was His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Emperor."
They had not planned to go out before. It was only after the office sent a letter that the girl read it that she decided to go out.
Recently, Shen's mother has been very worried about Su Yao. The Shen family left suddenly without even a letter. When she went to look for her cousin, she found that the Shen family had already left. She couldn't help but feel frightened for several days. If she was like this, how could Su Yao be any more
Although Su Yao didn't say it, Mother Shen knew that Su Yao cared deeply about the people in the Shen family.
Su Yao had not gone out these days, and Mother Shen became even more worried. But today, when she saw Xiao Heng standing under the banyan tree, Mother Shen's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down by half.
When Xiao Heng was still Song Heng, he had helped his daughter countless times. Now that he had become the eldest grandson of the emperor, although she saw him less often, Mother Shen still had great trust in him. She couldn't help but wink at Yan Cao and the others, and they all stopped moving.
Sanjiu, who was standing next to Xiao Heng, also came up smartly and called out "Miss Su Si".
Ever since Xiao Heng returned to the palace, all his people have stayed in the Song family. They can only be used when he leaves the palace.
Su Yao nodded to Sanjiu, and when he saw Sanjiu also walked away, he retracted his gaze and sat down opposite Xiao Heng: "This won't work. Although you say that your status has been restored, in fact, you are like a trapped beast, with no one around you to use, like being locked in a cage."
I have no control over anything. If I want to do something, I have to take the opportunity to go out of the palace to make arrangements. Not only is it inconvenient, it also easily attracts attention.
Xiao Heng chuckled softly: "You said the same thing as my uncle."
Guangping Hou also reminded him of this. Xiao Heng tapped the table, thinking, "They keep staring at my affairs and looking for trouble everywhere. Firstly, they are afraid that I will investigate my father's affairs. Secondly, they want to cause trouble for me. They want me to be the eldest grandson of the emperor in name only, without any legitimate reason, and keep dragging it on like this."
If you delay for too long, many things will naturally change.
For example, Emperor Yuanfeng never gave Xiao Heng a complete opportunity to study and work, nor did he give him a proper status or hire a teacher. So, would the Pang family have the idea of competing for it
Not to mention the Pang family, what about the maternal families of the other little princes
And will those ministers change course with the wind and look for a more stable ship to support
"It may seem like a one-sided attack, but in fact, this is the most vicious and effective method." Xiao Heng saw through it and reached out to pour a cup of tea for Su Yao: "Slowly, bit by bit, people's patience is exhausted, including mine and His Majesty's. They use trivial matters to drag me down, and then disgust the people who help me..."
Su Yao pursed his lips, knowing that Xiao Heng had met with Marquis Guangping and obviously knew everything, so he didn't say anything more, but just said: "This time, we have to thank the Fifth Prince for his help."
If it wasn't the Fifth Prince, if someone else took the Golden Jade Clothes and presented it to Emperor Yuanfeng, it wouldn't have had this effect.
Only the Fifth Prince, who was spoiled by Concubine Pang and Emperor Yuanfeng and was raised to be loyal and upright, could achieve such a good effect, making Emperor Yuanfeng not suspect that someone was framing Lei Yun. He only thought that the Lei family was too arrogant and corrupt to the point of having no scruples.
The wind was strong, and the stone table under the banyan tree was soon covered with dust. Xiao Heng saw that Su Yao's cloak was quickly covered with dust, so he stood up first and took Su Yao to the Sanqing Palace, saying, "The Imperial Concubine is a very smart person. No matter what happens in the future, at least now, she will never let the Fifth Prince rush out and be the first to take action."
She could see Emperor Yuanfeng's thoughts most clearly, so she would never do anything out of the ordinary at this time.
In this case, they are naturally allies that can be won over for the time being.
Su Yao knew that he understood what he meant, so he turned his head to look at him. The two smiled at each other and asked Xiao Heng, "Take this opportunity to let His Majesty see that there are people who have been eyeing you covetously, and have not spared even the Su and He families, and have repeatedly made things difficult for them. Among them is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue... Let's solve the problem that the Marquis is worried about first, right? With this incident, His Majesty should also know it well."
If we investigate further, we will find that there are many clues related to Lei Yun. If this one doesn't work, try another one. One of them will lead to something.
It is indeed time for Xiao Heng to have his own team.
"No hurry." As they were talking, they had already arrived at the palace. Immediately, a little Taoist priest came over, welcomed them in, and served them tea and snacks. Xiao Heng waved his hand, and the little Taoist priest retreated with his head lowered. He then said, "This time, it's really thanks to your sharpness that you sent me a message through the imperial concubine. Otherwise, it would be Hu Jianbang's matter, which would be enough to disgust me."
As Mrs. He said, sometimes good people do stupid things, which is more hateful than bad people, because they don’t think they have done anything wrong at all.
This is exactly what Hu Jianbang did. He actually wrote a letter to impeach Song Che, saying that Song Che had evil intentions and enumerated Song Che's ten crimes.
Among them are high treason, insubordination, and domestic unrest.
The censors of the Great Zhou Dynasty always dared to say anything, but no matter how much they could say, no one was as eloquent as Hu Jianbang, who would bite anyone. He not only impeached Song Che and Song Xiangyu, but also scolded Xiao Heng, saying that he was not ambitious, did not know how to study, did not know how to redress the grievances of his parents, and was flattering and fawning on his superiors, which was a lack of moral character.
"No wonder my grandmother hates him so much." Su Yao pulled the corner of her mouth, but she couldn't laugh. She couldn't believe that there were such stupid people in the world.
No matter how stupid others are, they know to protect their own people. But Hu Jianbang is completely a mad dog that bites everywhere. He has his own set of principles in doing things and requires everyone to act according to his principles. Only then can he be considered a gentleman and a good person.
If you don't do what he says, you don't deserve to be a human being in this world.
"What does the emperor mean by this fuss?" Although he already knew it, Su Yao was still a little worried.
