Daughter of aristocratic family

After Zhao Shuqing left, Zhao Wangshu was thinking about the purpose of Xinxing County Lord asking Zhao Shuqing to come over?

Gain her trust?

Lie her out and kill her?

still is

Zhao Wangshu suddenly thought of something and shouted loudly: "Hong Chang, Hong Chang."

"Girl, my servant is here." Hong Chang rushed in, "Girl, what's wrong?"

"When Zhao Shuqing and I were talking in the hall, what were the people she brought doing?" Zhao Wangshu asked eagerly.

"I didn't do anything, just walking around in the yard." Hong Chang didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.

"Close the courtyard door." Zhao Wangshu said in a deep voice.

Hong Chang was puzzled, but acted as ordered.

Zhao Wangshu and Hong Chang searched every corner of the yard and found three letters.

She didn't recognize the writing on the letter, which meant it wasn't written in Daliang Kingdom, but could only be from a foreign race.

Does Xinxing County Lord want to frame the Zhao family for collaborating with the enemy? Or do you want to frame the Zhao family as aliens?

This is a stupid and evil idea.

The head of Xinxing County wanted to kill her, so Zhao Wangshu called out: "Tianying, come out."

Tianying came out of nowhere and stood in front of her, "Girl."

"Give this letter to Yun Hao. I think tomorrow, officers and soldiers will come to ransack your home." Zhao Wangshu said calmly.

"Don't be afraid, girl." Tianying took the message.

Zhao Wangshu chuckled, "I'm not afraid."

Tianying took the letter and left. Zhao Wangshu told Hong Chang, "Don't spread this matter."

Hong Chang covered her mouth with both hands and nodded vigorously.

In the evening, the Zhao family's father and son came back from the Yamen. Zhao Wangshu told his family about the matter, "My father and my eldest brother will go to the Yamen as usual tomorrow. Just pretend that we don't know about this."

"No, you three women are the only ones in the house, and you were bumped into by officers and soldiers. How can you do that?" Zhao Cheng disagreed.

"Dad, you are a scholar, not a martial artist. It won't be of much use if you stay at home. It will also arouse others' suspicion." Zhao Wangshu said.

"Yue'er, do you have a father who despises you so much?" Zhao Cheng pretended to be sad.

Mrs. Zhao Cui kicked him, "Yue'er was right."

The next day, everything was as usual in the Zhao family.

At exactly 4 o'clock in the morning, the door was knocked open. Zhao Wangshu, who was drinking tea with his grandmother and mother, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "The people who ransacked the house are here."

It finally came, and if she didn't come, she wouldn't be able to hold on anymore.

But what Zhao Wangshu didn't expect was that the leader was Wang Zheng.

Seeing Wang Zheng, Zhao Wangshu breathed a sigh of relief. In order to achieve a real performance without prior knowledge, she didn't even tidy up the furnishings in her house.

Wang Zheng told his men, "Please pay attention to me and don't break things. It will be difficult for you to do business then."

After Zhao Wangshu heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly.

Wang Zheng led his men and searched the entire Zhao family, even the cellar, and found no evidence that the Zhao family collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.

"You are not allowed to go out for the time being. We will wait until I report to Your Majesty." Wang Zheng said with a straight face.

"Yes, sir." Mrs. Zhao Cui lowered her head and said.

Zhao Wangshu said: "Thank you for your trouble."

"You're welcome, Miss Zhao." Wang Zheng left a few confidants guarding the door, and he left with the others.

After Wang Zheng left, not long after, the Zhao family and his son were escorted back, and Zhao Yin was suspended pending investigation.

Zhao Yin comforted his family, "Don't worry, things will be over soon." "No need to worry."

Zhao Wangshu also said: "Brother, now you are free to join me in puzzle solving."

"Are you planning to open a puzzle shop?"

Zhao Wangshu shook his head, "This can be considered a board game and sold in board game stores."

"How did you come up with these weird things?" Zhao Yin rubbed her head.

Zhao Wangshu raised his eyebrows, "I am a smart person."

In the afternoon, the brother and sister spent the entire afternoon putting together a puzzle in their room. Mrs. Zhao Cui was helping them find pictures, but even though the three of them worked together, they couldn't put the puzzle together.

"Yue'er, this is a bit difficult." Zhao Yin rubbed his eyes.

Zhao Wangshu touched his chin, "Three hundred and sixty yuan is indeed a bit difficult."

A puzzle with more than 300 pieces is not only difficult to put together, but also labor-intensive and time-consuming to make. Especially with the current engraving technology, it took Zhao Wangshu a full month to complete the puzzle.

"Have dinner, we will continue to work on this tomorrow, we must spell it out." Zhao Cui said.

The brother and sister were also hungry, so they told their servants not to clean up and go to the front hall to eat.

The Zhao family was locked up at home and lived a leisurely life. During the court, Yun Hao asked the censor to impeach the prince of Guangyu County.

Yun Hao has not yet collected all the evidence about Prince Guangyu's crimes, but the Xinxing County Prince took action against Zhao Wangshu, making him unwilling to wait any longer.

"The minister is impeaching the Prince of Guangyu County for three crimes. One is dereliction of duty and neglect of government affairs; the other is forming a party for personal gain and scheming against evil; the third is corruption and enriching one's own pockets. The evidence of the crime is conclusive and cannot be denied. I ask the emperor to investigate clearly and take action. Punish severely to rectify the national law." Lin Yushi was impassioned.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the court.

The Prince of Guangyu County is a king with a different surname personally granted by Emperor Taizu, and is hereditary. The current Prince of Guangyu County is the cousin of the current emperor.

If what the censor said about impeachment is true, then the crime of Prince Guangyu will have a major impact on the court.

"I have collected evidence that the Prince of Guangyu County has neglected his duties, formed cliques for personal gain, and was corrupt. Please take a look at it." Lin Yushi replied in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and then handed over a thick memorial.

The emperor took the memorial from the chamberlain and read it.

The memorial records the crimes committed by Prince Chang Xiu of Guangyu County in detail, and each crime is accompanied by witness testimony and relevant evidence.

The emperor became more frightened and angry as he watched, "Chang Xiu, do you know your sin?"

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged. These are all rumors fabricated by others to slander my reputation." Chang Xiu knelt in front of the emperor and cried bitterly. "I am loyal to the court and to your Majesty, and I have no second thoughts."

"The evidence of Prince Guangyu's crime is conclusive and he should be severely punished." Some courtiers responded to the situation and agreed.

"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be verified. Don't just believe one side of the story." An important minister stepped forward and advised.

Some courtiers also had reservations and believed that the matter needed to be handled with caution. After all, the status of Prince Guangyu is extraordinary. A single move can affect the whole body. If it is not handled properly, it may cause unnecessary turmoil.

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. Your Majesty, please be aware of everything and never wrongly accuse important ministers." An old minister stepped forward and bowed.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair with an expressionless face, holding the dragon head on the dragon chair with both hands, suppressing his anger.

Listening to these ministers defending Prince Guangyu, he couldn't bear it anymore and threw the memorial in his hand at the old minister hard, "Yun Hao."

"I'm here." Yun Hao came out.

"Go and check. If it's not true, Lin Yushi, you framed the emperor's relatives and reduced your position in name. If it's true, Shen Nan, you and Chang Xiu are guilty of the same crime."

"I accept the order." Yun Hao did not expect that the investigation would fall on him. He had already found out these things, so there would be no difficulty in checking them again.

"Retreat from the court." The emperor waved his sleeves and left.
