The investigation of the Zhongyihou Mansion quickly made progress.

Ji Chenghao found a nanmu brocade box in the secret room of Qianhubu's study, which contained a dragon robe carefully.

This imperial guard Qianhu didn't dare to take a closer look, so he quickly called out his people, and Prince Ji Chenghao arrived in the secret room immediately.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the dragon robe.

The prince's face turned pale and he looked at Marquis Zhongyi in disbelief.

"This is your frame-up!" Situ Xuan suddenly raised his tone and spoke angrily, "You framed me! Someone framed me. I demand to see the Queen Mother immediately. I want to see the Queen Mother!"

Ji Chenghao raised his hand and ordered coldly: "Get Situ Xuan!"

When the soldiers from the Xiaoqi Battalion heard the sound and stepped forward, Situ Xuan's expression changed: "Here comes someone!"

The guards of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion swarmed in, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

"The emperor has an order. If Situ Xuan resists, he will be killed on the spot!" Ji Chenghao's eyes were cold, and the pressure of the military camp that had been immersed all year round made people feel frightened. "You dare to resist."

Situ Xuan's expression froze, his expression as gloomy as water, and he stared at Ji Chenghao, his eyes were so terrifying that he wanted to kill him immediately - but in the end he did not dare to act rashly.

놛正놇 is judging the situation in his mind.

놛 was injured just yesterday, and his internal injuries were serious. Now, whether he was fighting Ji Chenghao alone or resisting with all the strength of the whole family, he was no match for the prince 눁.

If we take action, the Zhongyi Hou Mansion will most likely suffer heavy losses today, and his life may not be saved.

And if he is taken to prison by the imperial guards, at least he will not die for the time being.

The Queen Mother will definitely find a way to save him.

Thinking of this, Situ Xuan gritted his teeth, looked at the prince hastily, and then said coldly: "Someone framed me, the queen mother will definitely give me justice."

In his words, he still did not forget to move out the Queen Mother and suppress others.

Unfortunately, what Ji Chenghao dislikes the most is this. In his eyes, a man who serves others with sex is no different from a palace eunuch.

"Capture all the people in the Zhongyi Hou Mansion and take them to the prison of the Ministry of Justice." Ji Chenghao ordered coldly, "The Hou Mansion will be sealed off immediately and no one is allowed to enter at will!"

"yes."

"Um, brother." Ji Feng'ao hesitated for a while and then tried to speak, "This dragon robe looks a bit weird. Maybe someone really framed Marquis Zhongyi..."

"The evidence is conclusive and cannot be denied." Ji Chenghao blocked his words in eight short words, "I believe in the evidence."

Ji Feng'ao was speechless for a moment.

"Besides, the dragon robe was found in the secret room of the Hou Mansion. The prince saw it with his own eyes. No one framed it." Ji Chenghao said calmly, "The secret room of the Hou Mansion should not be accessible to ordinary people."

Ji Feng'ao still wanted to fight to the death: "There are always accidents in everything. If a thief really wants to frame him, he will always find an opportunity."

"The prince can keep these words to speak in front of the emperor." Ji Chenghao said calmly, "I am responsible for controlling the execution of orders and not responsible for investigation and interrogation."

The prince's expression froze.

"Your Majesty!" Another person came in a hurry, "Jade Seal!"

The prince's expression suddenly changed. Is there still a jade seal?

Ji Chenghao frowned: "Bring it here.

The imperial guard held a rectangular lacquer-carved brocade box in both hands, walked quickly to Ji Chenghao, and presented it with both hands.

Ji Chenghao took it over, and there was a seal carved from top-grade white jade in the brocade box.

Seeing this piece of white jade, Ji Feng'ao's eyes suddenly shrank.

Why does this piece of white jade look so familiar?

The quality of white jade is impeccable, crystal clear and flawless.

Ji Chenghao took it out and looked at it carefully, and found that there was a blank space at the bottom where the words were engraved, and there was a line of small words in the corner: I am here in person.

It is not an official jade seal, but the ambition of the wolf is obvious.

Ji Chenghao had no expression, put the white jade seal back, covered the brocade box, and handed it to his closest subordinate: "Take it back to the palace together."

"yes."

Ji Feng'ao's face turned pale.

I remembered that I had seen this piece of white jade in the Queen Mother's palace. It was a gift from a neighboring country on the Queen Mother's birthday last year.

How did it end up in the hands of Marquis Zhongyi?

Was it the Queen Mother who gave it to 놛, and 놛 made it into a jade seal without permission, or was it the Queen Mother...

Ji Feng'ao didn't dare to think deeply, and suddenly felt cold all over.

"The Queen Mother might lead her troops out of the palace when she is angry." Ji Weiyu sat by the carved window, playing chess with Yan Qing leisurely, "But the emperor's civil and military officials guarded the entrance of the palace, so she lost the courage."

Even if she is used to being authoritarian and domineering, she cannot really dare to be an enemy of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, otherwise she will be guilty of causing trouble to the imperial court.

Even the emperor's own mother, who dared to disrupt the imperial court and acted domineeringly, could not escape the verbal and written criticism of the civil servants all over the world.

"She is ambitious, but has too many worries, which means she is destined to fail." Yan Qing said calmly, "If I were her, I would have taken over the Chu Kingdom many years ago, no matter how people comment or criticize me."

Having ambition but no courage is destined to fail.

"How can she be compared with His Highness?" Ji Weiyu began to flatter her every day, "Not to mention her status, just her courage and ability. The Queen Mother, Grand Princess, grandson and grandson together are not even a finger of His Highness."

Yan Qing paused for a moment and turned to look out the window, "The eldest princess released those male favorites, and the threatened ministers in the court no longer had any scruples. The Zhongyi Marquis was investigated, and the Queen Mother lost her arm again. Next, you Are we about to start dealing with Uncle Tang Guo? "

Ji Weiyu coughed lightly: "The king is weak and needs to rest. It is not appropriate to worry about the important affairs of the court for the time being."

Yan Qing raised his eyes slightly and looked at him with a hint of sarcasm.

"Your Highness, do you want to know the news of Dayong?" Ji Weiyu changed the subject and added, "The news of the time."

Yan Qing said calmly: "How is my intelligence worse than yours?"

Ji Weiyu said: "Before the information is delivered, I can calculate some of it in advance through divination."
