Chapter 710 Home
All the evidence points to Xie Hongsheng's lineage, and he, Xie Yu and his son are the first to bear the brunt.

In the end, Xie Hongsheng took all the blame on himself and let the emperor punish him.

For the Emperor Yu, it was something he had been waiting for for a long time for the Xie family to act.But the current development situation obviously did not achieve the effect he expected.

He hoped that Xie's family could be cleaned up.

But in fact, it won't be possible for a while.

Except for Xie Hongsheng's plea, he can't convict Xie Hongbo, nor can he convict other offshoots of the Xie family. If the entire Xie family is convicted, those party officials will definitely petition. At that time, many officials will be involved, and the situation in the DPRK and China will definitely be turbulent.

This incident made the emperor soberly aware that the Xie family's influence had penetrated to such an extent that he could not remove it at all.

Therefore, in the past few days, the emperor has piled up books that almost drowned his desk case, and he is not in the mood to read them.

He paced in the study distractedly, and then asked Huang Gonggong Xuan Dali Siqing and some of his confidant ministers to have an audience.

When Xu Shenfang was released from Dali Temple, Meng Yan notified Xu Shenfang's housekeeper, and the housekeeper drove to pick him up early.

He came out of the prison and walked step by step under the strong sunlight, his skin was pale, and his squinted eyes were dark.Because of his exposure to the free air outside, his whole body became alive little by little.

The prison guard tried his best to send him to the gate and hand him over to Xu Shenfang's housekeeper.

Xu Shenfang turned her head, clasped her fists at the prison guard, and said with a pleasant smile: "Thanks for taking care of me, I will invite the brothers to drink someday."

The guards were all familiar with him, waved their hands and said: "Go back, go back, go back and recuperate."

The butler carefully helped him into the car, and then drove away.

After entering the house, Xu Shenfang first smelled the familiar aroma of food.

At the right time, I saw Mrs. Xia was serving food to the dining room, and when Xu Chenfang came back, she said: "It can be counted as coming back, wash your hands and eat first, and you have to change the dressing later."

Xu Chenfang was stunned, not only seeing Xia Shi, but also Yan'er and Chongyi.

He looked along the corridor, and saw Meng Yan and Yan'er Chongyi were grinding medicinal materials in the shade, and various medicinal materials were still drying on the wooden chairs beside the corridor.

Meng Yan prepared the medicinal materials, packed them into packets, and told Xu Shenfang's servants: "This is for him to apply externally, one packet at a time, once every two days. The ones wrapped over there are for him to fry. Take it, one pair a day, you can fry it three times.”

Xu Chenfang's servants nodded and took notes seriously.

Then Yan'er found Xu Chenfang first, and said: "Princess, Mr. Xu is back."

Meng Yan looked up and saw Xu Shenfang standing at the other end of the corridor, surrounded by green vines on both sides of the corridor, mottled with light and shadow.

He has plain clothes and black hair, the same as when Meng Yan first met him. Although he doesn't have the bright red clothes, it still makes her feel like a monster who has strayed into the world by mistake.

The Xia family was calling for dinner, Meng Yan sorted and wrapped all the medicinal materials in her hand, clapped her hands, got up and walked over there.

When Xu Chenfang saw her coming, she turned around as if nothing had happened, and forced back the inexplicable astringency that was welling up in the corner of her eyes.

Home.

It has always been the thing he most desires to have.

The only people in this world who are willing to give him this warmth are probably the people in front of him.

Xu Chenfang raised the corners of his mouth and put on a smile. When he turned around again, he buried all his emotions in an impeccable way, and said, "Why are you here?"

Meng Yan said: "My mother is worried about you, so she has to come and see you. What can I do?"

After the meal, when Meng Yan was changing Xu Shenfang's dressing, Yan'er and Chongyi were helping.

Seeing that Xu Chenfang's injuries were more serious than she imagined, Yan'er could not help but sigh: "Those people attacked too hard."

Meng Yan checked it carefully, and fortunately, scabs started to form. As long as she rests well and does not break the wound, she will recover slowly.

Xia Shi also brought Houbugui with him. Houbugui hadn't seen Xu Chenfang for a long time, so he was very happy, but it knew that Xu Chenfang's condition was not good, so he didn't make trouble with him immediately, just squatted down. At the door, I turned my head to look into the room from time to time.

Not long after, Yin Heng came to take Meng Yan home.

Meng Yan looked up and saw Xu Shenfang's housekeeper brought him to the backyard, and said with a smile, "Didn't you come to pick me up in the afternoon?"

Yin Heng said: "Today's business was over early."

Xu Shenfang's voice came leisurely from the room: "He must be afraid that my cousin will stay at my house for a while longer."

When Yan Shouzhen returned home, he took off his sweat-soaked official robe, poured himself a cup of tea, and then let out a long sigh of relief.

He hadn't been able to get a good night's sleep during the trial of the private salt case for several days.

Now that the facts of the case have come to light, we are just waiting for a result.

Before Yan Shouzhen could rest and feel comfortable, Jingyun waited outside the door and said, "My lord, I invite you over there."

When Jingyun vaguely mentioned "over there", Yan Shouzhen's relaxed state immediately disappeared. He straightened up from the chair, hurriedly changed his clothes, and went out with Jingyun.

It's just that Yan Shouzhen didn't leave the house, but went out of his own yard and went to another yard.

The courtyard was very quiet, there were several servants in the courtyard, when they saw Yan Shouzhen coming, the servant made a "please" gesture and asked Yan Shouzhen to enter the house.

The door of the house is open, and the outside wind can blow in to make it cooler.

As soon as Yan Shouzhen entered the door, he saw a middle-aged man sitting beside the coffee table by the window, with a tidy hair crown and an upright appearance, but his face was full of upset.

At this moment, he was shaking his fan quickly to give himself some wind.

He looked up and saw Yan Shouzhen, his hands kept moving, and he tried to open his lapel with the other hand while blowing the wind, but he was always dignified and couldn't open the lapel completely, which seemed too impolite.

He said irritably, "Why is it so hot in summer in Dayin? And the cicadas outside are really giving me a headache."

This middle-aged man is not Li Guohuang who came all the way from Li country.

He deeply felt that it was really not the right time to come to Yin this time.

It's too hot.

But this time it was a rare opportunity, because he sent Shang Houzhi to Langguo.Otherwise, the Marquis of Shang would definitely not allow him to come.

Yan Shouzhen saluted him respectfully, and said with shame: "Da Yin is like this, the Lord just needs to get used to it."

Li Guohuang asked straight to the point: "When can I see that Mrs. Xia?"

Yan Shouzhen wondered: "Maybe it won't work for the time being."

Li Guohuang: "Not for now? Then when do you think it will be done?"

Yan Shouzhen said: "My lord also knows that King Wu of Yin has returned to the court. Some people bullied his concubine a while ago. After he came back, he is taking revenge fiercely. Basically, he will arrest whoever he is. Even the son of the third-rank minister in the court is also Let him be tortured and killed in the flower building."
