Chapter 487: Eighty-seven Falling out

Views:

After having a good meal and a good drink, Chu Jingxing smiled as he watched Cao Yuanwailang come up to say goodbye. He kindly told him to take care and asked him to leave. Then he asked him, "So, what is the verdict for this case in Shuntian Prefecture?"

Cao Yuanwailang answered honestly: "Now the two ladies of the Peng family are saying that they were poisoned by the other party, but there is no evidence to prove it..."

He lowered his voice when he said this, and looked at Chu Jingxing meaningfully: "Even if there is no evidence, the fact that these two ladies are accusing each other has already proved that the Peng family is inseparable. The prefect enforces the law impartially, and these two ladies will probably suffer a little."

Before, Master Peng had visited the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture.

Now the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture is not giving face, but it is not because of Cao Yuanwailang, but because...

Yes, such a big thing happened to the Peng family, how could Queen Fang not take the opportunity to step on them

Anyway, it's a good thing.

Since Queen Fang was feuding with the Peng family, she had no time to take care of his affairs, so as to avoid having to discuss his wedding date with Princess Chang'an all day long.

He nodded, and seeing that heavy snow had begun to fall outside, he asked Yuanwailang Cao to be careful on the road, and then sent someone back to inform them, and simply decided not to go back to the palace.

It’s not always comfortable to stay in the palace lately.

After Emperor Longqing had two sons, he had to deal with the trivial matters of competing for favor among his wives and concubines. He no longer had much time to care about him. Besides, even if he cared about him, it was not a big deal. After all, the fact that the Prince of Linjiang was a playboy and had no ambition to study was probably a comforting and happy thing for Emperor Longqing.

He sneered and stretched himself, only to find that his back and waist were a little sore from sitting straight for so long. He frowned for a while before standing up.

He has always had his own residence in this building. After seeing off the guests, Pei An came back and asked him, "Sir, shall I ask someone to prepare it for you?"

Chu Jingxing shook his head.

Although it was also the property of the Linjiang Palace, he no longer wanted to hide his dislike for the Phoenix Terrace. After a pause, he said, "No need. Let's go to Tianxiang Garden."

Pei An's hand movements were half a beat slower and he turned to look at him. After a moment's hesitation, he finally spoke: "My Lord, I'm afraid the prince will be unhappy again if you do this."

Although it was almost certain that Shen Chen would be separated, no matter what, King Linjiang had raised Shen Chen for more than ten years, and he truly treated Shen Chen as his own son.

Princess Linjiang and Chu Jingxing don't like Shen Chen, and Prince Linjiang is always angry.

Chu Jingxing sneered.

So what if I’m unhappy

After raising someone else's son for so many years, do you really plan to raise him as your own son and let him share the family business

His face darkened and he said nothing.

Pei Ming gave Pei An a wink, and Pei An didn't dare to say anything more. He lowered his head and went out to prepare.

Chu Jingxing suddenly turned around and raised his chin towards Peiming: "Has the matter between Peng De and Peng Huai been settled?"

He knew that Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu were going to help Wei An this time.

But he didn't intervene.

I don't know since when, the relationship between them brothers has already become clear. Whoever the King of Linjiang assigns a task to is responsible for it. He will not help them, nor will he let them ask for help from him.

But not helping does not mean being excluded from the news circle.

After all, he is the prince, and he has far more people at his disposal than Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen.

Pei Ming quickly stopped and agreed, "Yes, Mr. Peng has already written a letter to the Yi family. I'm sure that in a few days, Mr. Fan will submit another memorial to accuse the Minister of War of being Guo Zixing's superior."

Guo Zixing's case has been progressing very difficultly.

Thanks to his relationship with Qin Sheng, he didn't suffer much.

Since he didn't suffer much, it was impossible for him to be severely punished. He was also a tough guy, and the three judges almost turned gray with worry over his case.

This was the idea of the Peng family. By letting Fan Shiqi report Wei Yangqing at this time, they could solve the current troubles of the three courts - after all, they had already prepared the "evidence" of collusion.

This will connect the entire process together and destroy Guo Zixing and the Wei family together.

The Peng family’s troubles were no longer there.

Chu Jingxing curled the corners of his mouth and smiled.

It's a mockery.

The Peng family had planned everything, but they didn't know that the move they thought was the most powerful and could hit the Wei family with one blow was actually the result of someone else's calculations.

Once this memorial is submitted, the Peng family will certainly suffer a heavy loss. Even if they are not exterminated and their property is confiscated, I am afraid that this will not be far away. The best outcome will be the same as that of the Fang family.

How stupid.

Offended someone who shouldn't have been offended.

Chu Jingxing frowned again.

Wei Qi... ..

"Is Princess Shouning still very close to the Prince recently?" Chu Jingxing took his cloak from the screen and turned back to look at Peiming casually, "Do you meet often?"

Shen Chen rarely gets so close to a girl.

Recently, Princess Yonghe has been more enthusiastic about Shen Chen than ever before after being hinted by Emperor Longqing. She always follows him closely, but he has never shown Princess Yonghe a good look.

But he was surprisingly patient with Wei An.

If you count it up, it seems to have started when Shen Chen just returned to Beijing.

At that time, Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu did not listen to his advice and slipped back to the capital first. As a result, they were almost caught by Cao An and others. Later, Wei An helped them.

They probably started to get acquainted with each other from that time.

It's such a pity.

Chu Jingxing sighed softly.

If he had known that Wei An and the Wei family would have such an experience later on, that they would be able to turn their fortunes around, he should have gotten to know Wei An better. Wei An was also so smart, and had two great fathers, King Zheng and Wei Yangqing.

But it’s not possible now.

Wei An already had a deep friendship with Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen, and this time the matter of the Peng family was dealt with by the two of them together after discussion.

With this kind of relationship, there is no hope of pulling Wei An away from Shen Chen.

If such a good chess piece and ally is placed next to Chu Jingwu and Shen Chen, they may not be opponents in the future. He put down the cup in his hand, a little smile overflowed from his eyes, and asked Peiming softly: "In your opinion, is he a little different to Princess Shouning?"

Peiming paused for a moment. The prince's question was a little strange. He was a little confused, but he still responded honestly: "The prince is indeed very good to Princess Shouning."

He thought for a moment and added, "Not everyone can enter the Fangfei Garden in the Phoenix Terrace, but the princess can go there every time."

I can go there every time... Chu Jingxing hummed and smiled thoughtfully.
