After hearing Cao's plea, Lin Mao glanced at her sideways, then glanced at Lin Shan and Lin Qiuchen, and said slowly: "This matter is so big that the palace will not be able to suppress it. When you mother and daughter first did evil, what happened? Don’t you care about the child’s face? Besides, the late princess is not only the cousin of the Bai family, but also the biological sister of the Empress Dowager. Is it possible that you want to deal with this matter secretly? "

His voice was filled with pressure, and it seemed that it was at this moment that the Cao family and the Cao family present remembered that the late princess was more than just a deceased woman.

Her identity is enough to make the person who killed her die without a burial!

It was only then that Bai Tang looked at Lin Mao. His originally stern expression gradually relaxed, but he looked at Mrs. Cao with a cold look in his eyes.

Mrs. Cao said angrily: "Is it possible that Prince Ding's palace still wants to tie our mother and daughter to the Jinluan Palace? I am not your Lin family!"

Lin Mao's originally suppressed impulse was ignited again when Mrs. Cao spoke, and he said angrily: "Come here! Tie up this murderer!"

Cao Lu immediately stood up and asked anxiously: "What does King Ding want to do?"

Lin Mao snorted coldly and said: "Mr. Cao, if you don't want to repair the inner circle, you should take care of yourself!"

Cao Lu felt cold all over, and then he remembered that his official position was given to him by this cheap son-in-law. His expression immediately softened and he said: "This matter between you and my family should be resolved through discussion."

How can such a scandal be made known to everyone?
Bai Tang fiddled with the tea bowl, without raising his head, and said calmly: "Master Cao, do you want to hide the truth from the Empress Dowager?"

Cao Lu choked, he couldn't admit these words even to death!

Butler Feng rushed in with people at this moment. When he saw Lin Mao pointing at Mrs. Cao, he immediately took the rope to tie up the person.

Mrs. Cao rushed over and begged, "Your Majesty! She is your mother-in-law!"

Lin Mao narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "She is not my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law will not kill anyone!"

The implication is that Mrs. Cao is not the mother-in-law of King Ding, nor is she worthy of being the mother-in-law of King Ding.

As he spoke, he waved his hand and ordered people to drag Mrs. Cao away and tie up Mrs. Cao who was kicking and beating her.

There was chaos in the room.

Dr. Lu wanted to rush over, but his mother stopped him.

Lord Cao took a step forward and stopped at the same place.

Lin Shan and Cao knelt on the ground, praying to Lin Mao.

Butler Feng was a soldier and had strong mobility. He quickly tied up Mrs. Cao and stuffed her with a piece of cloth.

Mr. Cao saw that things were getting into this, how could he still withstand it?His eyes went dark and he fainted.

Cao Lu and Doctor Lu stamped their feet anxiously, but there was nothing they could do.

Lin Maodao: "Lock him up and deal with them after I enter the palace!"

After speaking, he waved his sleeves and entered the palace.

Under the command of Lin Xiao, Butler Feng took all relevant people into custody. Even Dr. Lu and Cao Lu were placed under house arrest.

After everything was settled, Yang Mu and Lin Xiao looked at each other and relaxed their shoulders.

After many days of preparation, today’s battle is a complete victory!

Bai Tang watched the two of them deal with the matter without interrupting. Until there were only three of them left in the room, he said slowly: "The Queen Mother doesn't know about this yet."

Lin Xiao nodded and said, "I want to report to the palace."

Yang Mu said: "You stay, I'll go."

After all, the Empress Dowager had left it to her to investigate.Now that the results are out, I will definitely get a reply.

Besides, she still needs help from the Queen Mother.

Seeing that they had reached an agreement, Bai Tang stood up and said, "It's time for me to leave too."

After speaking, he gave Lin Xiao a pointed look.

Lin Xiao understood this and sent Bai Tang out of the house.

Yang Mu took a portrait and rode into the palace.

Naturally, Lin Mao went to the Empress Dowagers of the two palaces to talk about this matter, but the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace had not received any news at this moment.

A state funeral was being held in the palace. After Yang Mu kowtowed and offered incense, he went to Cining Palace.

After saluting, Yang Mu glanced at the Empress Dowager, and immediately an old nanny led the palace attendants out to wait.

Yang Mu then told what happened today.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother clearly had anger on her face.

"It turned out to be the Cao family! These despicable people really worked hard for Ning'er's position! Lin Mao, this idiot! Led the wolf into the house!" She had thought that the murderer was the Cao family, but she never thought that there was actually a Cao family. mother!

Yang Mu heartily agreed with the Empress Dowager's words.

The Queen Mother calmed down, then gritted her teeth and said, "Now that I know about this matter, I will definitely not let that mother and daughter have an easy time!"

Yang Mu said: "My father should report the matter to the Queen Mother of the two palaces at this time."

As for the alliance between the Cao family and Empress Dowager Sheng, Empress Dowager Sheng will definitely minimize this matter.

The Empress Dowager said: "You can go out of the palace. There is no need to show up for matters in the palace."

Yang Mu knew that the empress dowager was afraid that if she accompanied the two empress dowagers, she would have a quarrel with the two empress dowagers, so he simply coaxed her out of the palace.

Yang Mu still accepted the kindness of his elders.

However, before leaving the palace obediently, she informed the Empress Dowager of something, handed her a scroll, and asked her to help investigate.

After Yang Mu left, the Empress Dowager called for the old nanny and drove her to the Qinzheng Hall.

In the Qinzheng Hall, Empress Dowager Tao supported Lin Mao in severely punishing the Cao family and her daughter, while Sheng wanted to handle the matter secretly on the grounds of "Lin family face".

As soon as the empress dowager arrived, there was no room for change in the matter. The empress dowagers of the two palaces issued an edict on the spot, ordering Jing Zhaoyin to investigate the matter strictly and punish him if he should be punished without mercy.

All the people detained by the Lin family were transferred to Jingzhao Yin Mansion that day, and Cao Lu had no choice.

After Yang Mu left the palace, he did not return home. He had some lunch on the roadside and then went to the palace.

Everything in the palace seemed calm.

Yang Mu sat in the duty room and called Bai Yao and Yin Zhu. After talking for a long time, he got up and went back to Prince Ding's Mansion.

As the highest-ranking hostess in Prince Ding's mansion, some things still need to be dealt with.

After today's commotion, everyone in the palace seems to be in danger.

The first thing Yang Mu did when he returned home was to work with Lin Xiao to kill Nanny Qin and others who had framed him.

After that, he ordered the accountant to re-do the accounting and sort out the accounts of Cao's corruption over the years.

Finally, Yang Mu opened the Cao family's small accounting room and private treasury in Yong'an Yuan, and found many of Changsun Ning's dowry items.

Lin Xiao looked at the account books of the small accounting room and ordered someone to secretly give the things that Cao had given to Lin Shan and Lin Qiuchen, and ask for them back.

With this commotion, the entire palace knew that the Cao family had fallen, and that the prince and his concubine were the most noble people in the palace after the prince.

……

Lin Mao was trapped in the palace. There was a huge quarrel at the national funeral because of the issue of the new king.

Some supported Li Yi, the second son of the regent, some supported Li Xi, the youngest grandson of King Huan, and some supported Li You, the son of Concubine Shu.

Seeing King Ding coming, the courtiers paused slightly and looked at Lin Mao one after another.

Lin Mao's eyes swept across the crowd, he looked at Yang Zhen calmly, and then he knelt incense and kowtowed.

Everyone's eyes have been following the prince who holds military power, wanting to know his position.

After Lin Mao saluted, he stood up and stood in his own place, looking at everyone but remaining silent.

An impatient minister couldn't help but ask, "Prince Ding, this new king..."

Lin Mao raised his eyelids, glanced at the minister, and said solemnly: "When has the final decision on the selection of the new king been made by the minister? The clan mansion, the empress dowager, and the two empress dowagers make the decision."

Saying this is tantamount to not saying it.

Who doesn’t know that these people have the final say in this matter?But they also have to listen to the minister’s advice!

Some ministers were unwilling to give in and turned to ask Yang Zhen, who had a keen eye, nose and heart, "Duke Protector, look..."

Yang Zhen blinked and said, "What Duke Dingguo said is true."

Everyone: "..."

The two people with the most military power in the capital said this, making it seem like they, the civil servants, were just looking for trouble!
Everyone secretly cursed: Zangzi Wufu!Vulgar martial artist!

The regent covered his mouth and coughed, and said: "Don't be anxious, everyone, the candidate for the new king will be decided soon."

Lin Mao and Yang Zhen glanced at him at the same time, then quickly lowered their heads.

His own son died in an unknown manner, and he didn't feel any sadness at all, so he hurriedly promoted another son to the throne. This is evident from the coldness of the royal family.
