Chapter 330
"What am I lying to you for? There is no benefit in lying to you. You have to know that everything in the world is full of surprises." Jian Qingyu lied without blushing or out of breath, and he spoke clearly and eloquently.

The fourth child still didn't believe what his mother said, but he had no evidence, so he had no choice but to admit it, "Oh, I won't say anything anymore."

It’s better to believe it than to believe it, because what my mother said is that there are only all kinds of strange things in the world. If a younger brother or sister is born in the future and they really don’t get along with him, he will be very sad.

He absolutely cannot allow such a thing to happen. She is a younger sibling, an amiable and lovely brother, and she must make her younger sibling believe that her brother likes them.

The eldest brother and the others smiled knowingly. Sure enough, the fourth child was still so easy to deceive, but this was good.

"Mommy, Mommy, hurry up and bring the food, the baby can't be hungry." The fourth child shouted loudly to Aunt Jin, asking her to quickly bring over the prepared meals.

In fact, there was no need for them to give orders, as Grandma Jin had already gone to get the meals.

After eating and drinking, Jian Qingyu's next step was to take good care of her baby. There was a lot of trouble in the capital during this time.

The situation suddenly changed overnight. As the head of the four major aristocratic families in the capital, everyone in the Shangguan family was captured and imprisoned. Even the old, weak, women and children did not escape. As soon as this incident came out, it spread throughout the capital, and various rumors continued one after another.

Li Yingying looked worried and came directly to Gu's house regardless of her pregnancy.

"Ayu, you have to be more careful recently. A big family like the Shangguan family has been imprisoned. I don't know what heinous crimes they have committed."

When she heard the news, she was so scared that her hands and feet were cold and she was covered in cold sweat. She couldn't stay at home for a moment and hurriedly came to find Jian Qingyu.

Jian Qingyu knew that such a movement was small. The crimes committed by the Shangguan family were simply too numerous to list. The other crimes actually made people extremely angry. But things like collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country are not things that anger can bring about unhappiness in. Anyone with a bloody heart would sneer at him and wish he could be cut into pieces with a thousand knives.

The evidence has now been firmly placed in front of the emperor. The emperor himself was very worried about the aristocratic families and asked Xiao Chengyi to investigate the major aristocratic families. Everything came to an end.

"Yingying, actually my husband-in-law was also involved in this matter. It's not convenient for me to go into details. You really need to be careful these days. Don't go out unless necessary. In your current situation, just stay at home to raise your baby. I guess The commotion in the future will only be bigger, not smaller, but don’t be implicated.”

After hearing Jian Qingyu's words, Li Yingying's eyes were as big as copper bells, and her lips were trembling in surprise. She wanted to say something but couldn't. She obviously didn't expect Gu Yanbei to be involved. This...

Jian Qingyu nodded, Gu Yanbei's involvement couldn't be hidden, and he couldn't openly admit it.

Yingying came to tell her the news with good intentions. If she even kept it secret, there would be resentment in the future.

"Ayu, you, are you serious, then..."

Li Yingying had many questions in her heart, but she also knew what was right. Jian Qingyu had just said that it was not convenient to disclose it. It obviously involved confidentiality. Forget it, she better not ask. There is no benefit in knowing too much.

"I can only tell you that all the crimes committed by the Shangguan family are minor. The details will depend on the ruling of the Holy Emperor. Let them worry about these matters, and we can rest assured to raise the baby."

After these days of training, Li Yingying is more stable than when she first came here. There are some things that you should not ask too much about, so she nodded clearly: "Well, anyway, I have nothing to do. He just happened to be here again, so I will Take good care of your baby at home. Wait until the limelight is over before you come out."

She was very glad that the baby arrived in such a timely manner. This excuse would not be considered an excuse. After all, pregnancy could be found out with a single check and could not be faked. "Well, I'll ask Uncle Zhou to take you back and bring you some fruits from my house later. You must eat more fruits during pregnancy but not too much."

Jian Qingyu prepared a lot of things for her and put them on the carriage, and gave Uncle Zhou some instructions before sending her back.

Li Yingying was panicking inside and did not reject Jian Qingyu's kindness. "Ayu, I will go back then. You must also pay attention to your own safety."

"I know, please come back quickly."

The people sent by Chu Feng finally found Xiao Chengyi two days later. Xiao Chengyi was seriously injured and would have died if it had been later.

Therefore, he did not dare to delay at all and sent the person directly to the palace.

The emperor was furious when he saw Xiao Chengyi's miserable state. Especially after hearing Xiao Chengyi's report, his anger was pushed to the peak.

"Okay, very good. He is so bold. His Shangguan family doesn't take me seriously at all. The whole of Dayan is nothing in the eyes of the Shangguan family. Otherwise, how could he have collaborated with the enemy and treason?"

Xiao Chengyi knelt on the ground and simply stated the facts. He did not add any fuel to the matter, nor did he express his own thoughts.

Even the second brother-in-law of the Xiao family participated in the matter and told the truth truthfully, and did not take it out because he was a member of his family.

After all, the evidence was clear that he couldn't save him even if he wanted to. It would be better to kill the emperor in a righteous way so as not to implicate the rest of the Xiao family.

If it goes by the past, as long as a family member commits a crime, even if they are not guilty of the same crime, they will be demoted, reduced in title, or more seriously, directly exiled!

"Chengyi, thank you for your hard work. If you hadn't helped me find out the truth about this matter, I don't know how long I would have been deceived. I will not forget the credit this time. Regarding your grandfather's illness, the people in southern Xinjiang have already replied to the letter. Well, the great witch doctor is already on his way to Dayan."

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." It's not that he doesn't believe Mrs. Gu, but that there are too many things involved, because before Mrs. Gu treated his grandfather, Gu Yanbei was already annoyed. This time, he could only put his hope aside. If even the great witch doctor can't do anything, he will definitely sincerely ask Mrs. Gu to take action.

"Go back. I will send the imperial doctor back with you later."

Because there was an imperial doctor following him, Xiao Chengyi returned directly to the Xiao family after leaving the palace. At this time, the Xiao family was also in chaos. Fortunately, Uncle Xiao usually didn't do much, so he was able to suppress it at the critical moment.

As soon as his son came back, Uncle Xiao seemed to have found a backbone, and the energy he had been holding on to before suddenly disappeared, "Son, what's wrong with you? Something happened in the house, your second uncle..."

"I really didn't expect that your second uncle is so crazy. How could he, how could he?" Uncle Xiao really didn't expect that Mr. Xiao would dare to do such a thing.

When the Holy Guard's personal guards came to arrest him, he was so frightened that he almost fainted. He had no idea what Lao Er had done. Fortunately, those personal guards only arrested Lao Er and people related to Lao Er. He was really afraid that the Xiao family would be raped. All sent to prison.
