Xie Xiuwen touched her head: "Of course we won't let it go like this, but you have to understand that sometimes to punish a person, you don't have to kill her or punish her with the law. In fact, many times, We cannot use the law to severely punish many evil people, so we can only find other ways."
Xie Rongzhao thought of everything he and his parents had experienced in his previous life, and he understood it all at once.
"Dad, my daughter understands."
Xie Xiuwen smiled and patted her shoulder, motioning her to sit down and play a game of chess.
Xie Rongzhao is not a good chess player, but among children of the same age, he is pretty good at it.
Xie Xiuwen was playing chess with her, so it was only fair to give in.
"Dad, something happened in Yunzhou. Will you be targeted after you return to Beijing?"
Xie Xiuwen had known for a long time that his daughter had something on his mind, and now he was finally able to open up.
"My dear baby has grown up and now he knows how to share his worries for his father."
Xie Rongzhao said with a face of shame: "Dad is here to coax me to talk again. In fact, how can I help you share your worries? It's already good if I don't cause you any trouble."
"Haha." Xie Xiuwen laughed twice. The father and daughter stopped talking about anything else and concentrated on playing chess.
After Xie Rongzhao arrived in Beijing, another news came from Gaoyang County.
This time there were letters written by Cheng Jingzhou and Liu Erlang.
In the letter, Cheng Jingzhou mentioned the family's punishment of Cheng Yuanyuan. He directly announced that she had a serious disease and was sent to live in Zhuangzi. All the maids serving around her were also changed. Cheng Jingyan specially bought two strong women to watch. Keep her in check to prevent her from causing trouble again.
Xie Rongzhao felt that Cheng Yuanyuan was in this situation, and it was his own fault. He just sent people to Zhuangzi, which was the end of benevolence and righteousness.
If it weren't for the fact that she had the blood of the Cheng family in her body, it would have been possible to expel her from the house.
Cheng Jingzhou also mentioned one thing at the end of the letter.
He had to observe mourning for his grandmother for one year, and he could no longer write to her until he was discharged.
Xie Rongzhao felt empty for a moment.
She understands.
They were an unmarried couple, but Cheng Jingzhou had to keep his filial piety, so it would be hard for him to write letters to her again. Even if there was nothing outrageous in the letters, in the eyes of others, it would mean that Cheng Jingzhou was not calm and sincere.
During the period of observing filial piety for the elders, one still needs to be at ease.
Xie Rongzhao felt sad when he thought that he would not receive another letter from him for a year. After sitting there for a long time, he picked up a pen and wrote a reply to Cheng Jingzhou.
She didn't dare to write anything that was too ambiguous. She just asked him to take good care of herself and Aunt Cheng. She was just in good health and she didn't want to get sick again.
After writing the letter, Xie Rongzhao suddenly felt that it was good now. At least Cheng Yuanyuan was kicked out of the Cheng family. Just because she killed the old lady, she would never be able to return to the Cheng family or enjoy Cheng Yuanyuan's life. The treatment of the young lady at home.
In this way, the incident of her betraying brother Jingzhou in her previous life should never happen again.
Perhaps, the road ahead for brother Jingzhou will really be smooth sailing.
Thinking about it this way, Xie Rongzhao felt that things really need to be looked at from different standpoints to discover the pros and cons.
Xie Rongzhao sealed the envelope and opened the letter Liu Erlang wrote to her.
The letter mentioned that Wang Ximeng went to the county seat to meet with Xie Ronglan twice more, but the two seemed to have a dispute, which was quite unpleasant.
After that, Wang Ximeng was taken back to the town by Wang Dalang to start a restaurant business. No one else has been found to be in contact with Wang Ximeng.
Xie Rongzhao basically stopped thinking about the matter in Gaoyang County. She was not there anyway. Even if Wang Ximeng tried to get her bracelet again, it would not work.
Moreover, the difference in status meant that Wang Ximeng would not have the chance to contact him, so he could at least be quiet for a few years.
Xie Rongzhao thought like this, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
Will Zhao Jiajun win the top prize again?
If she remembers correctly, in his previous life, he clearly picked up people's wisdom and was appreciated by the nobles, and thus he was promoted step by step.
In this life, my father's political achievements were remarkable, and brother Jingzhou was selected as a scholar early, so he still needs to be valued by his husband. Without Cheng Yuanyuan, a poisonous woman, can Zhao Jiajun still have a smooth journey through the achievements of others?
She will wait and see!
Xie Xiuwen has been busy since he returned to Beijing. He investigated the case in Yunzhou and handed over the remaining evidence. Since the prince was involved, it was beyond his control.
Emperor Jingwen directly issued an order to surround Prince Ping's mansion. Prince Ping was escorted into the clan's mansion. His family members could not even leave the house, and even the servants could not find a chance to sneak out.
The case has been handed over to the three departments for trial, and Xie Xiuwen is completely at peace.
Although Xie Xiuwen never participated in the trial of Prince Ping's rebellion case, he brought back all the relevant evidence, along with a string of witnesses. Even if he did not try the case, his name would be indispensable in the final credit book.
Half a month later, the case of Prince Ping's rebellion came to a conclusion.
King Ping was deposed and demoted to a commoner, his family property was confiscated, and his family was exiled to the northwest.
For such a serious crime, Emperor Jingwen didn't want Prince Ping's head, which was already extremely merciful.
In fact, if it weren't for the reputation of a benevolent king, Emperor Jingwen would have really wanted to kill Prince Ping directly and give an explanation to the people of Yunzhou.
The case was settled and Yishui'er's reward was sent to Xie's family on Anping Street.
Xie Xiuwen and his whole family knelt down to thank the emperor for his kindness, and even Liu Ruolan received the emperor's seal of approval: a virtuous and beautiful woman!
This was in recognition of her not being swayed by money, and even smartly sending relevant evidence to Xie Xiuwen, so that he could handle the case faster and more smoothly.
When Xie Xiuwen submitted the memorial, he did not want his daughter to be too conspicuous, so he only mentioned his wife. Now that the reward was given, Xie Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Rongzhao knew that her parents were protecting her in disguise, so she was naturally not unhappy. Instead, she felt that this was just the right way to deal with it. She didn't want to be criticized, and a quiet life was the most important thing.
Liu Ruolan received the reward. After returning to the house, she picked out a large part and sent it to Xie Rongzhao's yard.
Because they were given to women, most of them were jewels, some with internal seals, which could not be transferred, so Liu Ruolan put them away first, but those few pearls, brocades, jade and other good things, You can use it at will.
Xie Xiuwen also received a reward, but it was not as grandiose as Liu Ruolan's.
Xie Zuocheng returned again, but in just a few days, the issue of Prince Ping's exile fell silent. After all, everyone was gone, and the dignitaries in the capital would not just focus on Prince Ping to discuss. What they cared more about was power and interests.
Xie Rongzhao painted the jewelry by himself and wanted to see if he could create a unique jewelry and give it to his mother-in-law in the future. She would definitely be happy.
"Miss, Mrs. Wang and Miss Wang are here. Madam, please come over and talk."
