Zheng Ji believes that after this self-defense of Xuanzhengdian, the perception of her by the officials in the DPRK and China will definitely change.
Good or bad, she didn't care at the moment.
The world is full of dangerous mountains and rivers, so what is there to be afraid of?
She knows where the direction is, and even if her journey is delayed, she will eventually reach higher ground.
Now……
Zheng Ji couldn't help but smile when he thought that his father had ordered a joint trial among the three divisions and that the results would be available within three days.
The offensive and defensive situation has become easy, and it is others who are anxious.
Sure enough, just as Zheng Ji expected, after the morning dynasty ended, countless people were anxious.
In a mansion in Jingzhao, a middle-aged official said angrily: "How could this happen? How come there was no news before about Princess Changding entering the palace to defend herself?"
If they could know this in advance, then they would be fully prepared. Why would they be so passive?
"No news has come out from Zichen Palace. We thought that His Highness Chang Ding was completely focused on Concubine Jiang and had no time for him to care." Someone replied, Nuonuo.
He was responsible for keeping an eye on the palace. Seeing that everything in Fuqing Palace was as usual, and thinking that the court officials were pressing every step, victory was already within grasp, and he felt a little slack in his heart.
This answer was obviously unsatisfactory, and the middle-aged official who had spoken before was still choked with anger.
"Okay, that's it, what's the use of hindsight?" A young man interrupted them unhappily and said unceremoniously: "It's just to let you know in advance, so what?"
Can they stop it, or change the outcome?
"You have been in the court for too long, and your official career has been smooth, but you are also arrogant and arrogant. From now on, you must learn from this."
Several officials had sarcastic expressions on their faces when the young man spoke to them, and were speechless for a moment.
This is indeed the case. They never take Princess Changding seriously. Even if they know that she wants to defend herself, they will only laugh at her for overestimating her abilities.
Therefore, it was not in vain to stumble in the Xuanzheng Palace.
The young man knew very well the principle of giving both kindness and power, and immediately comforted him: "You don't need to blame yourself too much. The fault for this matter is not yours, the key lies with Xue Gong."
He was not in the Xuanzheng Hall and did not see with his own eyes what was going on at that time, but he could judge what was going on from the descriptions of the officials.
There are many reasons leading to the final result of Xuanzheng Palace, among which the turning point lies in Xue Gong.
Xue Gong's guarantee for Chang Ding's private seal was secondary. More importantly, Xue Gong also reported some words after guaranteeing it.
It was after these words that the Emperor would change his mind.
What exactly did Xue Gong say?
This is what young people are worried about.
He knew very well that it was impossible to know this. Even he could not pry Xue Gong's mouth open.
"Yes, thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I will definitely put away my arrogance in the future and never make such a mistake again." Several officials replied.
It turned out that this young man turned out to be a prince.
Also, such an attitude towards a court official can only be due to his status.
However, these officials are all called "subordinates". Obviously, these officials are secretly on his side and are people who obey his orders.
The young man thought for a while and reminded: "There are experts around Chang Ding. You should pay close attention to see who gave her the idea."
He was too familiar with his Nine Emperors Sister. Even if she performed exceptionally well in the Xuanzheng Hall, in his opinion, she was still under someone's guidance.
Thinking about it carefully, Chang Ding was able to remain unharmed in several incidents. This expert beside her is really amazing!
Who is it? Are those gentlemen at Princess Changding Mansion? Or is it the aide the Jiang family is secretly looking for?
It seems that I still need to "communicate" with this imperial sister more in the future.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The middle-aged official who had been suffocating before asked hesitantly: "Your Highness, in the three-division trial... what charges will the Lin family face?"
The corruption incident in Jiangnan Road is too big. It is natural for the Lin family and Lin Heyun to be convicted, but how big is it?
There is a secret to the crime.
The emperor has ordered the Third Division to conclude the case within three days, which means that the matter can no longer be delayed.
Although the Jiang family was dragged into trouble by using Concubine Jiang's pregnancy, the emperor's preference for the Jiang family is obvious. Will their previous arrangement still work?
Thinking of this, the middle-aged official said bitterly: "Lin Heyun's work is so unreliable! The layout of Jiangnan Road fell short because of him, how shameful!"
The other officials also had expressions of regret and hatred on their faces, but they were helpless.
Hearing these words, the young man's face became ugly. It had to be said that Lin Heyun's accident involved the layout of Jiangnan Road, which made his heart bleed.
But it was impossible for him to show off in front of his followers. He only said calmly: "If you want to achieve great things, there are many hardships. This is also a test for you. From now on, everyone should be cautious when doing things. As for the Lin family..."
His tone became firm and he promised: "As long as we ascend the Dabao one day, this palace will not treat the Lin family badly."
He was not just talking nonsense. The Lin family had made great contributions for him. Sacrificing the Lin family now was just a last resort. After he ascended the throne, he would definitely restore the Lin family to its former glory.
"Yes, Your Highness, I know it!" Several officials said in unison, and then continued to discuss the matter of the Third Division.
However, they didn't know that their trusted master was not as calm as he seemed.
After all, what did Xue Gong say next to his father?
Why did my father's attitude change so quickly? He had a hunch that if he didn't know this as soon as possible, something might go wrong in the future.
Concubine Jiang was also very curious about this.
"Xue Gong is an old fox, how did you get him to speak?"
She only knew that Xiao Jiu had her own ideas, but she never thought that Xiao Jiu could still influence Xue Gong.
Xue Gong is the person close to the emperor and the most trusted servant of the emperor. Xiaojiu has contacts with him, which has advantages and disadvantages.
"Concubine, do you know Princess Yonggui?" Zheng Ji asked.
Concubine Jiang couldn't keep up with Zheng Ji's thoughts. She thought about it for a while and then said: "Concubine Yonggui? Of course I remember."
Concubine Yonggui, or rather Concubine Yong, was the late emperor's favorite concubine in his later years. What was rare was that Concubine Yonggui had a very good relationship with the Queen Mother, and she took care of the emperor when he was still a prince.
For the emperor to ascend the throne, the right time, place, and people were indispensable. This harmony was also due to the help of Concubine Yong.
Unfortunately, Concubine Yong was not blessed. Shortly after the emperor ascended the throne, Concubine Yong, who had become Concubine Yong, passed away.
The Empress Dowager was so sad that she even asked the emperor to give her a "noble" word for Concubine Yong. Of course, Concubine Jiang, as her favorite concubine, knew these things.
Xiaojiu suddenly asked about Concubine Yonggui. Could it be that Xue Gong's guarantee was related to Concubine Yonggui?
Or maybe the emperor's attitude has something to do with Concubine Yonggui...
She thought about the many shocking palace secrets and couldn't help but change her color slightly.
Could it be that she thought of that? This... is impossible!
