The big thing about being a princess

Chapter 56

As soon as the capital entered September, Du Liangdi was pregnant and within a few days it began to rain continuously. One autumn rain and one cold, it was impossible to go out without a cloak.

At night, there was another downpour of rain, and the thunder seemed to poke a hole in the day.

In a courtyard with three entrances on West Street, a shaky white figure suddenly fell out from behind the corner door.The heavy rain drenched Shirai Shadow's whole body, and his clothes clinged to Shirai Shadow, showing the graceful figure of a young girl.

The girl was covered in scars, and ran forward with bare feet, as if there was a wild animal chasing her behind.

The girl's feet were scratched by the stones on the road, and the blood disappeared in an instant along with the rain. After running for a quarter of an hour, the girl was already exhausted.Before she fainted, she finally saw the patrolling soldier. She stretched her arms and uttered a single sound: "Save"

It was probably because the thunder outside was too loud, and the sky had just turned a little white. Wen Jing opened her eyes in a daze, and found that the place around her was already cold.

There were whispers from outside, Jiang Xufeng was talking to someone outside.

"Your Highness?"

There was a pause in the voices talking outside, and after a while, Jiang Xufeng came in with a cup of hot tea and handed it to Wen Jing.His whole body seemed to be full of anger, and his eyes did not hide it. When he met Wen Jing, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's still early, the princess can sleep peacefully, and go back to Guanlan Garden alone."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Xufeng picked up his coat, turned around and went out.

Wen Jing went in without knowing it, and Jiang Xufeng's look was a little frightening.The hypnotic sound of falling rain in the past has become extraordinarily clear, and the people who listen to it are anxious, and Wen Jing has no sleep at all.

By the time the sky was completely bright, the capital city had already exploded into a pot of porridge.

The patrol of the nine-door admiral found a dying girl at the intersection of West Street. The girl's clothes were disheveled and her body was covered with scars. The heavy rain last night had made her have a high fever.

The patrolling soldiers sent her to Dali Temple, before the morning court, the girl showed signs of gradually waking up, opened her eyes and burst into tears, and then bumped her head against the gatepost of Dali Temple.Dali Temple was in chaos in an instant, Master Qinglu of Dali Temple swore to give her justice, the girl was appeased, and she spoke slowly, but her words were shocking.

According to the girl's narration, the girl is the daughter of the king of Qiyang, named Qi Yao, who was kidnapped into a house and lost her innocence. It rained heavily last night, and she escaped while the guards were lax.

This innocence is nothing but loss of body, the owner of that house has some special hobbies, the wounds on the girl's body are all whip marks.

Logically speaking, if the daughter of a county king is lost, it is impossible for Beijing to have no news.Jing Zhaoyin did receive a report from the Qiyang County Prince's Mansion. Only in the capital, where the rich and powerful are all over the place, the Qiyang County Prince's Mansion is really not eye-catching.

Their family was originally a direct branch, but over the years, it gradually fell into a side branch.There is no one in the family who can support the family, and there is only a title of Qiyang County King and such a house.

In recent years, even the money for the maintenance of the house has not come out, and the house is still a gift from the emperor, which cannot be rented or sold.In the end, a large piece of the back was sealed, and it was barely enough to survive.Life is not as good as that of a rich businessman in the capital, let alone who else socializes with his family.

And Qi Yao is a concubine in the mansion, and her biological mother was given to the King of Qiyang County by the princess of Qiyang County for the sake of solid favor.Now Qiyang County King's favorite is a pair of dragon and phoenix twins born by the princess, so Qi Yao naturally ignores them.

The gates of Qiyang County Prince's Mansion are not strictly controlled, and Qi Yao often sneaks out.This time she went out for a whole day and didn't return. Her biological mother couldn't hide it before she told the truth. Qiyang County Palace hurriedly went to Jing Zhaoyin to report the case.

Jing Zhaoyin also sent people to search carefully, and the servants of the county prince's mansion searched for four or five days, but no one was seen, thinking that the girl was in danger.

With Qi Yao's testimonial, Dali Temple quickly found the Sanjin's house and arrested all the people inside.The son of Bai Changrun, Minister of the Household Department, was still dreaming on the bed, but was dragged out of the bed by the minister of Dali Temple himself. By the time of the early court, Mr. Bai had already been sent to prison.

Today's playbooks are all from Master Bai, the Shangshu of the Ministry of Accountancy, and Yushi's words are even more fierce, and spitting stars are flying all over the sky.

Emperor Kande had decreed to suspend Bai Changrun's official position, and the case was handed over to Dali Temple Secretary to take full responsibility.

King Ning stood there lazily, and covered his sleeves with a big yawn: "His Royal Highness, Brother Huang got up very early for this morning's fun. I don't know if His Highness likes this gift from Brother Huang." ?”

Jiang Xufeng glanced at King Ning lightly, speechless, his expression was ordinary, and he could no longer see any anger.

King Ning snorted coldly, he hated Jiang Xufeng's appearance the most, what was he pretending to be.

King Ning's grandfather, Zhou Shengming, Lord Zhou, took the official position from the left servant of the second rank, and he was in charge of the three departments, the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Rites.

The Minister of Officials and the Minister of Rites were all single-handedly promoted by Zhou Shengming.As for the household department, the household department is recognized as a money bag, and the household department minister Bai Changrun is on the side of King Ning on the surface, but he is actually a student of Taifu Du, so he is actually Jiang Xufeng's person.Otherwise, King Ning would not have thought of a way to get money from Jiangnan, which would lead to the case of smuggling salt.

The right servant of the second son of Han's father shoots Mr. Han, who is in charge of the Ministry of War, Ministry of Punishment, and Ministry of Industry.The Minister of War was Zhou Shengming's closed disciple, and the Ministry of Punishment was originally King Ning's father-in-law, Mr. Zhao. Mr. Zhao fell from the horse, and Mr. Qu came to power so that King Ning and the prince's faction maintained a balance.

Now that something happened to the Minister of the Household Department, King Ning's faction will definitely find someone to make up for it, and the Six Departments will be in a one-sided situation again.The household department is such an important position, it's no wonder Jiang Xufeng isn't angry.

The heavy rain kept falling, and it even became more and more fierce in the evening, and puddles had already accumulated in the yard.

It was dark outside, and there was no intention of lighting the lamps in the study of Guanlan Garden.Jiang Xufeng's robe was already soaked by the rain, but he didn't seem to know it. He had been standing in front of the window for a long time.

Bai Changrun lost his wife in his early years, and his two sons died young, and the concubines he took in later failed to give birth to sons.As I got older and lost the ability to bear children, I had no choice but to adopt the son of my cousin's family.

The adopted son was probably hindered in his talent. He even failed the scientific examination for a few years, and finally took advantage of Bai Changrun's relationship to get a part-time job. He didn't hear of any bad habits on weekdays.

But the evidence from Dali Temple can't fool anyone. In the afternoon, three female corpses were dug up in the courtyard of the Sanjin.With the addition of Duke Qiyang's daughter, Mr. Bai is enough to be beheaded.

Jiang Xufeng went to the Song Mansion after the morning court. Both Jiang Xufeng and Master Song knew that Bai Changrun must have been killed this time and could not be saved.King Ning's attack was sudden, and there was no chance of reaction at all. Naturally, there was a backup, and Bai Changrun would not be turned around.

What Jiang Xufeng was angry with was not Mr. Bai's basket, but that neither he nor Mr. Song had a suitable candidate for the household department.

"Your Highness, Master Bai is here." Zhu Zhan's voice sounded outside the door.

Jiang Xufeng picked up the fire folder on the shelf, lit the candle on the desk, half of his face was reflected by the candlelight: "Let him in."
