Princess Fenyang immediately realized that Princess Mingchang was talking about Li Jiamin, who made a mistake and was sent back to her hometown for reflection.
Li Jiamin actually ran away? !
Princess Fenyang was so shocked that she was speechless: "This, this is naturally no problem, but this is a big deal! Mingchang, have you told His Majesty about this?"
Li Jiamin did not go back to his hometown voluntarily. Instead, he was ordered by Emperor Yuanfeng himself to go back to his hometown to study and reflect on himself. Now he actually ran away secretly. This is disobeying the order!
To put it in a serious way, this could be punishable by death!
Princess Mingchang's expression suddenly became worse. She exhaled heavily and said coldly, "I know that this evil creature has made a big mistake. I am the only one who knows about this matter for the time being, otherwise I would not bother you. Sister-in-law, I trust you..."
It turned out that Li Jiamin had the audacity to run away. No wonder Princess Mingchang came to ask her to help find someone.
Princess Fenyang had an idea, but she didn't refuse. She just said with a sad face, "Tell me what kind of fate we have, these children who make us worry! Your family is better off, at least they are still alive. As long as we can find them, we can send them back before anyone finds them. Over time, His Majesty will calm down. When he calms down, you can naturally come back to be his little lord. As for me, what hope do I have?"
Speaking of this, Princess Mingchang began to feel angry.
After enduring for a long time, she finally snorted softly: "Yes, it's really a strange thing. I don't know why, some people are so successful and now have both fame and fortune, but in our family, anyone who has anything to do with her has bad luck."
She already felt extremely disgusted with Su Yao.
Princess Fenyang remained silent, and only said: "The situation is stronger than the person. Who made her the sweetheart of Madam He? Madam He? She is also the sister-in-law favored by the emperor."
The three words "sister-in-law" hurt Princess Mingchang.
She immediately thought of how high-spirited and pure Madam He was when the late queen was still alive.
But what I didn’t expect was that when Empress Xiaoci was alive, Mrs. He enjoyed great glory. Now that Empress Xiaoci has been dead for many years, Mrs. He can still gain face by relying on a dead person.
She sat quietly for a while, and suddenly said, "It's okay. This deep friendship won't last long."
Princess Chun'an seemed to be thinking about something.
When Princess Mingchang said goodbye and left, she looked at Mr. Cui who came out from next door and squinted her eyes and said, "It seems that I am not the only one who hates the Su family."
Mr. Cui nodded and asked Princess Fenyang: "Then I will write to my family and ask them to help find someone?"
"Looking for someone?" Princess Fenyang smiled and said, "Yes, I am looking for someone. Look for him carefully."
Mr. Cui turned and was about to leave.
Princess Fenyang called out to him, "How are you going to tell your father and brother?"
Mr. Cui was a little puzzled: "This... naturally, we should ask the old man and the eldest master to find a way to send the person back to Princess Mingchang."
"No." Princess Fenyang lowered her eyes gently: "I have been confused before. I was simply blinded by one thing. I am not the only one in the world who hates the Su family and has a grudge against the Su family. There is also Mingchang."
Princess Mingchang also hated the Su family and Mrs. He to the core.
In addition, it was because of Su Yao that Li Jiamin lost the title that was within her grasp and was driven back to her hometown. It was also because of Su Yao that Princess Yunzhang lost the glory she had enjoyed for many years and now has become much dimmer.
How could Princess Mingchang, who had been proud and ahead of others all her life, tolerate this
Mr. Cui seemed to be thinking about something.
Princess Fenyang looked at Mr. Cui meaningfully: "Do you know what to do now?"
Don't find anyone, or rather, don't find anyone alive.
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Mr. Cui shuddered all over, quickly answered yes, and ran away without daring to ask any more questions.
Princess Fenyang said no more, but just stood in front of the window, staring at the yard outside in a daze.
She was thinking about what Lord Wang said, what did he mean by residents' attention could be easily diverted, and that all it would take was for something bigger to happen
What could be bigger
Right now, everyone in the streets and alleys of Beijing is talking about this matter.
Could it be anything else
But after a few days, she knew what it was.
On August 22, an express message was sent from Fujian over 800 miles away. Only then did everyone know that the pirate Shen Hai had led 9,000 Japanese pirates to invade the Zhangzhou area, causing heavy losses near Zhangzhou.
The whole court was in uproar.
Shen Hai had long been a thorn in the side of the imperial court. Everyone knew that this thorn in the flesh was painful, but Shen Hai was slippery, spent most of the year at sea, could command the Japanese pirates, and had his own troops, making him really difficult to deal with.
But in recent years, Shen Hai has switched to the smuggling business and regards himself as a protector of the sea. He no longer engages in banditry, or in other words, if he wants to rob, he does it at sea.
Who knew that this time it would cause such a big commotion!
The news soon spread among the people, and they were furious. Many people scolded Shen Hai for being immoral and ungrateful to his ancestors.
Although we have no connection with them, when we think about the miserable conditions of the people living along the coast and the fact that there may be many refugees by the end of the year, we can't help but feel sad.
At this point, Mrs. Chen’s case was finally no longer so sensational.
When the news reached Fenyang Palace, Princess Fenyang and Mr. Cui looked at each other. They were both shocked but couldn't help but feel relieved.
No wonder Lord Wang could say with such certainty that he would find an opportunity in a few days. It turned out to be this opportunity.
Yes, now, the eyes of the whole court are not only on Madam Chen’s affairs.
It should be said that the officials were busy discussing whether or not to send troops to hunt down Shen Hai, and Mrs. Chen's case suddenly lost its previous excitement.
Even Zhang Tuiguan sensed this, so he couldn't help but find an opportunity to ask for an audience with Su Yao.
Su Yao met him in the flower hall of her home. Hearing Zhang Tuiguan's confusion, she thought for a moment and shook her head.
Zhang Tuiguan asked angrily: "What should we do now? Are we just going to watch this case turn from a big thing to a small thing, and from a small thing to nothing?"
He was worried that without so much attention, the case would eventually be left unresolved.
Su Yao shook his head firmly: "No, it won't happen. The sword has been unsheathed and it can't be taken back. This case is not only watched by the people below, but also by the people above."
The person above
Tuiguan Zhang couldn't help but lower his head. The people above, were they referring to Gao Ping and the others
Su Yao saw his doubts and said softly, "Don't worry that this case will be left unresolved. What we should worry about now is not this, but someone trying to take advantage of the situation and disrupt the situation."
Zhang Tuiguan asked in surprise: "What does the county lady mean?"
