But no matter how anxious she was, there was nothing she could do.

Emperor Longqing was really furious. After the Censorate found out all the servants who passed messages to Li Shao and got their confessions, he even brought Li Shao to the imperial court.

He used to indulge this family.

If you are a superior person for too long, you will inevitably feel lonely.

The brothers had to be on guard, and his mother had died a long time ago. His wife's family, the Ming family, was a real relative, but they were all dead. Sometimes you have to have a thought to feel less lonely.

But thinking about it is one thing, and whether you know how to do it or not is another.

Even though Li Gui Niang is being praised so much, this family is still so confused.

If they just do nothing, they can enjoy wealth and glory, but they are blinded by greed.

He hates it most when someone plays tricks under his nose.

Even though he knew that Li Gui Niang was just jealous and did this, he still sneered.

How old is he, but he knows how to use human lives to control the Wei family? - Maybe it's not that simple. If the matter had not been reported to the authorities early that day, and the farmers had not made a fuss, and the Wei family had handled the matter quickly, maybe the reputation of forcing a widow to death would have spread. What would happen next

Would the Li family then hand over another name card and ask He Zhizhou to hastily sentence the case to the Wei family for forcing someone to death

After raising it for so many years, it hasn't become any smarter, but it has become more and more courageous.

He was extremely angry this time, but when he entered Fengyi Palace and saw his son, he calmed down a little. He held his son's chubby little hand, and heard Queen Fang say, "Changying came to me and cried again... She said she really didn't know and it was the children who were fooling around..."

"She was very sensible and pushed it away cleanly." Emperor Longqing snorted coldly, without any easing up: "Why are you crying now? What were you doing before?"

After all, this time Princess Gu Changying didn't have face left, and someone was killed. Although Li Shao refused to admit that he had the intention to kill someone, he said that he was just venting his anger for his sister, so he asked the servant to instigate the witch to scare Madam Xu and want her to go to the Wei family to make trouble.

But later he didn't expect that Madam Xu had died, so he panicked and asked his family to send a visiting card to Zhizhou He's home.

But Emperor Longqing didn't care about that.

There are so many eyes watching outside. Last time he was just given a light reprimand and let off. This time he is involved in a murder case. If he lets Princess Changying's Mansion go again, what will become of him

What's more, the Li family really ruined his big plan.

With a stroke of his pen, he changed the title of Changying Princess to Changying Princess, removing the word "Chang", and also took away the title of Li Gui Niang's Princess. That's not all. Since she was no longer the Princess, the regulations of the Princess's Mansion, the salary and ceremonial guards, all had to be reduced, and all these matters were handed over to the Ministry of Rites to handle.

There was originally no rule that the daughter of a princess must be given the title of county princess. The reason why Li Gui Niang and County Princess Xianrong were given titles was because Emperor Longqing made an exception. Now that he did this, no one came out to argue with him.

Even Li Shao was not to blame and was ordered to return to his hometown in Nanjing to study and was not allowed to enter Beijing without permission.

Princess Changying was so angry this time that she broke five of her fingernails and was shaking all over. She wanted to rush into the palace to beg for mercy, but she couldn't even enter the palace gate - Empress Fang even issued an imperial decree to reprimand her.

They said that she had behaved inappropriately, neglected to educate her children, lost the demeanor of a royal family, and brought shame to the emperor and the royal family. They ordered her to go home and reflect on herself, and prohibited her from going out for three months and from attending banquets for five months.

This was simply killing her. It was like peeling off a layer of skin from her. Her face and dignity were completely lost for the day.

This time the palace didn't even give her time to react. As soon as the Queen's reprimanding decree came, people urging Li Shao to set off immediately. She didn't even have the chance to reprimand her son or blame her daughter. Finally, she couldn't hold on any longer and fainted with her eyes rolled back.

There was chaos in Princess Changying's mansion, but the mansion of Marquis Dingbei was quiet.

A few days later, Empress Fang summoned Wei An to the palace again. Her attitude was a little gentler than the last time she met him. This time, because Old Madam Wei was still there, Empress Fang even ordered someone to serve goat's milk. After talking for a while, she said, "You have been wronged this time."

Emperor Longqing asked the Embroidered Uniform Guard to investigate the matter thoroughly.

The Wei family had indeed suffered an unexpected disaster.

That woman was indeed instigated by Li Shao to commit suicide, and Li Shao really wanted to use this incident to ruin Wei An's reputation.

However, Wei An saw the opportunity quickly and had already come up with a plan for Zhuangzi's matter, so Li Shao was unable to react in time. After asking someone to take care of the connections, he saw that the situation could not be suppressed, so he asked the Jinling Li family to send a letter to plead for mercy.

This matter has nothing to do with the Wei family.

The Wei family didn't know that there was someone behind this.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard investigated and found that the Censor of Tongzhou... ... Coincidentally, he had an old grudge with the Li family and was also a brother-in-law of Prefect He, so he couldn't stop the incident once it happened.

He was making such a fuss, and there was an element of revenge in it.

Having said that, the Wei family still needs to be appeased.

Empress Fang said, "I thought Gui Niang was a lucky star, and she should be blessed, but I didn't expect her to be so petty and make such a fuss. She must have ruined all her blessings."

The grandparents and grandchildren of the Wei family did not dare to say anything. Queen Fang comforted them a few more words, rewarded them with many things, and then let them leave the palace.

Mrs. Wei leaned against the wall of the car and finally breathed a sigh of relief. She smiled and glanced at Wei An: "You see far."

He knew from the beginning that the Li family was definitely involved, and he had known about it for a long time, but he still deliberately let Lin Hai and the others make such a big fuss, pretending to want to investigate, and pretending to say that he had found the person, which finally led Li Shao to take action.

Once He Zhizhou stopped, Li Shao really thought that nothing was wrong.

But he didn't know that Wei An had been waiting for his business card and letter - He Zhizhou had already made arrangements - and Wang Tui Guan was a ready-made good helper. If Wang Tui Guan talked to the Censor, everything would be done smoothly and the Wei family would not be affected at all.

Wei An sneered, raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for Old Lady Wei. "The Li family has been making moves again and again. If we don't cut off their hands and feet at once, they will never stop. Even if there is a quarrel between girls, there should be a limit to their relationship. But since their family insists on treating it as a big deal... then we have no choice but to let them make a big fuss."

Malice is something that will not disappear just because you take a step back. Instead, it will accumulate more and more because of your concession. Wei An believes that he is not the kind of person who can swallow his anger.
