Prince Jin narrowed his eyes. The gentle and refined aura on his face was no longer there. Instead, it was replaced with a fierce and difficult to calm look, "You can go back first, I will think of a way."

Yang Lian was still worried. "Your Highness, the evidence that this official bribed the examiners will be sent to the emperor soon .." This matter cannot be delayed. I beg Your Highness to think of a way to save this official's life as soon as possible. "

Prince Jin nodded, "Don't worry. Thanks to your efforts in the south of the river, you've given me great support. This king will always remember this contribution. I naturally won't ignore your suffering."

Yang Lian secretly heaved a sigh of relief, "Yes, then this official will go back and wait for news. Thank you for your troubles, Your Highness."

"Yes."

After Yang Lian left, Prince Jin called in his trusted aide, "Yang Lian cannot be left alive. Let's make our move."

"Yes, Your Highness."

During the latter half of the night, a candle flame suddenly lit up in the living room of the Duke of Yue's residence. The Duke of Yue put on his clothes and looked towards Yu Heng, who was reeking of blood, "Prince Jin has really made his move?"

"Yes, Prince Jin's men wanted to kill Yang Lian to silence him. I have already saved him according to Master's orders."

"En, looks like Prince Jin has really started to panic. Have the people from Shuntian Palace rushed over?"

"Shuntian governor, Shen Bingshu, has arrived with his official. He is currently investigating the scene and investigating the identity of the assassins."

"That's good, Shen Bingshu's character is just and upright, once he interferes, the matter will be easy to handle. According to the plan, tomorrow morning we will get someone to deliver the evidence to royal father, in addition to sending people to protect the Nebula Market and the Not Envy Pavilion, so that Prince Jin won't have any other ideas."

"Yes."

The next day, before Mu Yunyao had time to get up and clean up, Jinqiao had already hurriedly walked in and delivered six taels of silver to Mu Yunyao's side. "Miss, this was delivered six taels of silver early in the morning."

Mu Yunyao was sitting in front of a dressing table with her hair spread out. When she saw the contents of the letter, she couldn't help but smile. "Prince Jin wants to kill Yang Lian to silence him. It seems like my guess is right. The silver taels in his hands are indeed from Jiangnan."

The Su family was no longer a threat. She had already secretly found a way to deal with the Jin king, but who knew that someone would send her a pillow right after she fell asleep. If she were to bring this matter to light, even if the Jin king did not die, he would at least lose a layer of skin. Miss, last night, the Su Clan was in an uproar. I heard that an assassin had entered the Su Clan to assassinate Master Yang, even dragging the eldest young master of the Su Clan. Fortunately, Lord Shen from the Shuntian Prefecture arrived in time to calm the disturbance, but those assassins were caught.

and then he killed himself, so much so that he couldn't get any useful leads. "

The smile on Mu Yunyao's lips became thicker, "The Su Family is never peaceful. Have someone to remind the Su Family's Second Madam and Su You to close up and live their lives. Don't ask about anything else."

"Yes, miss."

After washing up and changing clothes, Mu Yunyao went to accompany her mother to eat.

Just as he entered the room, he saw Xu Yanhan's absent-minded appearance, "Mother, what's going on?"

"Hmm? Yao'er has arrived. The breakfast is already prepared, and there's a fresh sugar cake. Quickly come and try it. "

"Mother, are you alright? Why do you look so preoccupied?"

"I'm fine, what can I do? I drank too much tea yesterday and didn't get a good night's rest, so I'm not in a good mood. Don't worry, if mom has anything, she'll definitely tell you."

After Mu Yunyao accompanied her to eat breakfast, she was directly rushed back to her own courtyard.

Afterwards, Xu Yanhan called over Senior Servant Qu, his face full of worry. "Senior Servant Mu, I'll have you wait on my side for the sake of reminding me. Now, I really don't know what to do." Senior Servant Qu's face was smiling. "Madam, Her Highness the Grand Princess asked you to punish the Su Clan in order to train your wrist, but she did not say that she would not allow you to consult her. Her Highness the Grand Princess is your backer, no matter what happens, you can always consult her.

"It's a matter of birth and reliance. It's easy to do anything from a high vantage point. What do you think?"

"Alright, I understand."

Seeing Xu Yanhan come over, Grand Princess Yi De couldn't help but laugh: "I was still thinking about when you would come over and ask me, but I didn't expect you to be able to hold on until now, and let people cut off the Su Clan's old madame's hands. Good job. In the future, Lady Sun will no longer slander Yao'er."

Xu Yanhan didn't know how she said it, but when she heard that Old Madam Sun had said that it was Yao'er who had harmed her, she was so angry that she immediately issued this order. She didn't expect that within four hours, both of her arms were broken.

"Mother, as a woman, I am able to take action against the Old Granny of the Su family and some of the young ladies in the harem, but Su Wenyuan is an official of the Imperial Court. I really don't know what to do."

"Yan Han, do you know why there are so many concubines in the imperial harem?"

Xu Yanhan was stunned, "The emperor is the ruler of a country. He'll choose a few beauties to accompany him, and he'll help the imperial family grow more leaves .." After saying that, she suddenly paused. Grand Princess Yi De laughed, "You thought of it? If what you've said is true, then many of the imperial concubines are meant to accompany the Emperor. They are the sons of the Emperor's son, and thus the Emperor won't have so many of them. Within the imperial harem, who could be chosen, who could be conferred a high position, who could give birth to a son, who could be pampered ..

.. ... There are traces to follow, and every action is closely related to the previous dynasty. "

Xu Yanhan opened his mouth, and was extremely shocked in his heart, "Hearing mother say this, I feel like the emperor has no other choice."

"Hehe, if the emperor could do as he pleases, then this imperial court would have already been thrown into chaos." Grand Princess Yi De laughed, "If you can control the backyard of the Su family well, Su Wenyuan and the others won't be worried at all. The back of the house alone is enough to strangle a person to death. "

Xu Yanhan nodded thoughtfully, "Mother, I understand a little now."

"Take your time. Mother will keep an eye on you."

historical

"Yes."

Mu Yunyao was driven back to the courtyard by her own mother, so she simply laid on the soft couch and waited lazily for the news.

"Mistress, Yang Lian has already been imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice's Prison. A letter was sent by all of them saying that the King is currently gathering his men in an attempt to frame Yang Lian for a greater crime." Ministry of Justice prison... Don't let Yang Lian be silenced during this period of time. In addition, secretly let the news of the misfortunes of the Jin Mansion spread to the Emperor. Be careful not to make it too obvious.

As for the rest, let the King find out for himself. That's why he believed it. "

"Yes, your subordinate will go now." Three days later, the King's Punishment Department's prison interrogated Yang Lian. He discovered that there was something amiss with the salt tax in Jiangnan. The few clues pointed directly at Prince Jin.
