"Aunt Qiu Yu, it's not that the Sa family doesn't help the Concubine Xian and the two madams to talk to each other, it's because our princess is free and easy-going by nature and doesn't stick to political matters. She has no intention of meeting you today~"
In front of the gate of Shengjing Palace, Tianxi held a fly whisk as usual and smiled so hard at the aunt in charge of Jingren Palace and Mrs. Chu Shen that he could not see.
What is the status of their princess now?
Do these people still think it was more than half a year ago, when the princess was disliked everywhere?
If the consort hadn't said that the princess was either sitting or lying down every day to have some fun, he wouldn't even bother to report it for them.
After all, he didn't have the slightest fondness for those who wanted their princess's life and failed but shamelessly came to plead for mercy.
"Eunuch Tianxi, can't you inform us again? I'm really worried about my master, how can he bear it..."
Chu Ming's wife's eyes were red. She was obviously a well-maintained lady in the Shengjing family, but now she was tired and haggard, looking much older.
Seeing that she wanted to kneel down and kowtow to Tian Xi, a pair of children beside her hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and Tian Xi subconsciously stepped away.
"Mrs. Chu San, what are you doing? I'm just a slave of the Sa family. How can I accept such a great gift from you?"
He said that he would take this opportunity to retreat and return to the palace to return his life to his princess.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shen, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stepped forward and said in a calm tone:
"Eunuch Tianxi said that His Highness Zhaoming is not interested in seeing us today, so we will come back tomorrow. I also ask your father-in-law to bring a message to the princess for me, saying that I will come to ask for an audience every day until she sees me."
"this……"
Tianxi sighed: "Why are you doing this..."
Faced with Tian Xi's incomprehension, Mrs. Shen still looked at Tian Xi firmly, with no intention of backing down on her face.
She was not threatening His Highness, she was just stating her determination. She wanted Shen Ge to live...
Nothing else is necessary, as long as you are still alive.
Seeing Mrs. Shen ordering someone to stuff a bag of gold leaves into her hand, Tian Xi finally nodded and said:
"That's all, it's just a word, Sajia will take it for you."
Anyway, if you give their princess a bag of gold leaves and ask her to listen to a sentence, she will definitely listen.
After all, the princess said, why don’t you bastard make money?
After Tianxi turned around and left with Jin Ye, Aunt Qiuyu walked up to Mrs. Chu and Shen and comforted them with a few words of warmth.
The general idea is that if they can find an opportunity to meet the Princess Protector and discuss the matter of Shen Ge and the other two with her, their empress is willing to be the middleman at any time.
As we all know, Concubine Liu Xian is a true neutral in the palace. She eats fast and chants Buddha's name all day long. She also has a rare compassionate heart. With her testimony, she is not afraid of Princess Protector's repentance easily.
Mrs. Chu and Shen thanked Qiu Yu and quickly turned around and got on the carriage on the roadside.
Qiu Yu quickly returned to Jingren Palace and informed Concubine Liu Xian of everything that happened today.
"Mother, Chu and Chen have been begging to meet that person for six days. Will they really get the chance to meet that person if this continues?"
Looking at Concubine Liu Xian who was kneeling in front of the white jade Guanyin statue, still twisting the beads indifferently, Qiu Yu really had no confidence at all.
She could still guess at others, but that princess was really clueless...
"Not urgent."
Concubine Liu Xian's long eyelashes were drooped, and her slightly opened eyes contained a shadow that could not be seen by others.
"The actions of Chu and Chen are so blatant, and the people behind them will always take action. When those people take action, they will definitely seek to see Feng Xi more actively."
She has survived all these years, is she still afraid of this moment?
"Send someone to tell Yun Xuan that no matter what method she uses, she will provoke a conflict between the third house of the Chu family and the other two houses. As for the prince's lineage and the Shen family, that's all, they will naturally fight among themselves..."
"yes."
In the afternoon of the next day, when Feng Xi once again refused to meet Mrs. Chu and Chen, and once again received a package of gold leaves as a gift, Qi Xiao, who had been busy outside the palace for several days, finally returned after a long journey.
Recently, there has been a fierce quarrel in the court because of the punishment of Shen Ge and others.
Even he, the young minister of Dali Temple, had to go to court to listen to the government and make some necessary arguments.
In order to slow down his handling of cases, the prince and the fourth prince took the initiative to raise many old cases in the court in the past few days. At the same time, there were also many people from other places outside the Dali Temple government office, lining up to come up. Redress grievances.
Qi Xiao didn't even need to check this, he knew that this was something they were doing.
However, he still took a closer look at the accusations and found that many of them were true.
Moreover, he concluded that many of the petitions were intercepted by officials from various places themselves, or they were withheld at the request of others.
I think that the prince and the fourth prince's lineage probably helped him spread a lot of rumors, such as the Dali Temple's ability to solve cases like a god, enforce the law impartially, and not admire the powerful, etc.
And those who came to Beijing to complain would know that this was true as long as they made some inquiries in Shengjing City.
But would the prince and the fourth child be so kind?
Feng Xi smiled:
"Praise, this is definitely flattery! It's too much. How could they harm you in such a despicable and shameless way and want you to go out of the capital to investigate cases? You have done so much work in my palace. What should I do? Shrimp and pig heart, it’s just shrimp and pig heart!”
Qi Xiao: "..."
What is shrimp and pig heart?
Can it be eaten?
However, seeing a certain Phoenix being so indignant, Qi Xiao quickly calmed him down and said:
"So I recommended two ministers from the Ministry of Punishment to the emperor, and asked them to go to the southeast and the northwest to examine these unjust, false and wrong cases along the way."
As early as the day the fraud case was exposed, these two ministers of the Ministry of Justice had joined the ranks of the Princess Protector's Mansion.
These two are not young at all. When Xie Bin, the Minister of Punishment, did not take up the position, he was the minister. It is not known how many years they will be suppressed now.
In Qi Xiao's view, these unjust, false and wrongful cases are the most suitable opportunity for them, and they are also a test to test whether they can continue to stay in the Princess Mansion.
If they do well, they will be promoted to a higher position; if they do not do well, they will lose their jobs and provide for their retirement. It all depends on how they behave.
Feng Xi, who learned that Qi Xiao didn't have to go to other places to work, nodded and lay down at the speed of light.
Even after lying down, he complained ruthlessly to Qi Xiao:
"Oh, that's it. If you had said it earlier, it would be fine..."
Qi Xiao: "..."
So love will disappear, right?
Fortunately, he still had another piece of news to tell Feng Xi, that is, the news that the prince's line and the fourth prince's line would do anything for Shen Ge and Chu Shen, but that Mrs. Chu and Chen contacted Feng Xi privately finally spread.
"The Prince's Mansion and the Fourth Prince's Mansion have been very busy recently because of this incident. I heard that Mrs. Shen, who always gives way to Feng Yuan as her daughter-in-law, actually slapped Feng Yuan last night for the first time."
Feng Xi: "!"
