I fought back after reselling my engagement

Chapter 212 No Severe Punishment

Xia Yang glanced at them coldly, "All those who participated in this incident in the Rat Flag have been sentenced to death; the Snake Flag and Eagle Flag lost more than half of their men and horses."

Persecuting the Lord is a crime of treason, and anyone involved in this matter will be sentenced to death.

Princess Changle felt a heavy heart.

The twelve flags of the Supervisory Guards never lacked manpower. If the front ones were lost, there would be newcomers to fill in immediately. This incident also taught them one thing: the people the Supervisory Guards served were the Emperor, the Crown Prince, and the Phoenix Lord. They could not participate in any internal struggles among the various factions of the royal family. Once they intervened, they would be crushed to pieces.

Three months later, the truth of the violent persecution of Princess Jiaxing was revealed, and all the participants were sentenced to death. However, the case involved Princess Changle and Princess Rongning, as well as Concubine Wan and the fourth prince behind the scenes. The whole plan was planned by Concubine Wan and her son, and Changle and Rongning were just their pawns.

Prince Gong begged for his beloved daughter.

The queen knelt outside the palace and refused to leave.

In the end, Princess Changle and Princess Rongning were stripped of their titles and their fiefdoms were taken back; Concubine Wan was banished to the cold palace, and the Fourth Prince was stripped of his title and nobility for murdering his siblings, demoted to a commoner, and exiled to Fangzhou, never to be allowed to return to the capital for the rest of his life.

The next day, Emperor Dezhi found an embroidered spring sword and a golden token at the bedside. On the front of the token was a stack of strange silhouettes, a mask with a dragon pattern and a letter of resignation.

Xia Yang is gone!

It was time for him to leave, but he stopped only for her, as he didn't want to stay any longer now that she was gone.

He is the commander-in-chief of the Dragon Guard Battalion, but he has another identity in the martial arts world. He is also the most elusive and mysterious Ghost Envoy in the Supervisory Guard. Among the Twelve Envoys, he is second only to the Dragon Envoy and the Phoenix Envoy, and is above all the other Envoys.

Li Dajian took a quick glance. If he hadn't seen the token, he wouldn't have known that Xia Yang was a ghost messenger.

Emperor Dezhi snorted: "He has been by my side for more than ten years?"

"Your Majesty, twelve years."

"Twelve years. When I first came here, I was still a young boy of sixteen."

"He fulfilled his promise to the Emperor..."

"We owe each other nothing." Emperor Dezhi pondered.

From now on, the two sides are far apart and owe each other nothing.

Xia Yang became his first disciple, and he was still the emperor of Da Qi, and they owed each other nothing.

Li Dajian said carefully: "Su Jingzhai of Hunan Province reported that Princess Jiaxing was buried in the back mountain of Baixianzhuang. The people in Hunan Province spontaneously paid tribute to the princess and sent her to the funeral. Some people even proposed to build a princess temple in Yueyang Prefecture to offer incense and worship."

"Let them go. I am sorry for Wanwan. I can neither protect her nor the princess she left for me."

For the sake of the overall situation, Prince Gong and the Empress knelt down and begged for mercy. He could not kill the legitimate princess of Prince Gong's mansion, nor could he severely punish the Ninth Princess. He could only deprive them of their titles, lands, and fiefs, and could not even demote them to commoners.

They were not demoted to common people and still enjoyed wealth and splendor.

Li Dajian said: "In Mingzhu Garden, the Ninth Princess and the Young Princess of Prince Gong's Mansion are no longer suitable to manage Mingzhu Society. Your Majesty, who do you think is suitable now?"

"Let the Eleventh Princess take care of it, and the daughters of Prime Minister Li and Prime Minister Xie will help."

"Here——"

The death of Princess Jiaxing made the scholars all over the world feel sad and the common people feel regretful, but she died anyway. Su Jingzhai held a grand funeral for his granddaughter, and the people of Hunan Province even built a "Princess Temple" to commemorate her.

Yueyang Prefecture, forest.

Su Zhen entered the eleventh level of foundation building. After coming out of retreat, he disguised himself as a Taoist priest, cut out two sets of Taoist robes, and quickly sewed them with a sewing machine. They were a little too big.

She sorted out the medicinal herbs that the two spirit beasts Baiyu and Ruixue had brought back in the past few days, classified them, and wrote a long list according to the most commonly used elixirs of grades one to three.

He entered Yueyang City and found a temple built two miles outside the city in the direction of Baixianzhuang. Hanging on it were the familiar three characters "Princess Temple", which were inscribed by Su Jingzhai. The incense was quite prosperous. There was also a middle-aged nun in the Princess Temple, accompanied by two young nuns, one of whom was Chunjiang.

Chun Jiang became a nun and is still in the Princess Temple...

Su Zhen was surprised and distressed.

Before she left, she hoped that Chunjiang and Xiaoluo could be free, get rich, marry and have children, and live a stable life. But she never thought that Chunjiang would become a nun in order to guard the temple for her.

When she was in the Grand Marshal's Mansion, she valued Chunxiao more because Chunxiao was smart and talkative.

Xiao Luo is the greediest among the little girls and she is very good at making food.

Su Zhen could not hide his surprise. Chunjiang was not waiting to practice. He was naked under the monk's hat. He had already shaved his head.

The "Princess Temple" is divided into the front temple and the backyard. It is a small temple with two entrances. The front main hall has three statues of Guanyin: Nanhai Guanyin, Thousand-hand Guanyin, and Child-sending Guanyin. The side hall has a life-size "Princess Statue". On the other side are the tablets of the wise men surnamed Liu who died tragically in the disaster. It is not a spirit tablet, but a black tablet with the names of nine people written on it.

Su Zhen followed the crowd into the Princess Temple. The temple was not big, but there were five little nuns. In addition to a middle-aged nun who served as the abbess, there were two teenage nuns, a twelve-year-old nun, and a six-year-old nun, a total of five people.

There are meditation rooms, vegetarian rooms, bedrooms, etc. behind the temple, as well as two incense guest rooms. Although the temple is small, it has everything it needs.

Su Zhenyi changed her appearance, and now she was a thin and weak little Taoist priest. After she burned incense, she came out and stood in front of the merit box and stuffed three silver bills into it. The bottom ones were all worth one thousand taels, and the top one was worth one hundred taels.

Chun Jiang said: "Daoist friend, please leave your name!"

Su Zhen didn't say anything, for she was afraid that if she spoke she would be exposed. Although her appearance could be changed, she couldn't change her voice. It seemed that she would have to refine a magic weapon to cover up her voice. She returned the salute and gestured with her hands.

The spring river is slightly frozen, I don’t understand it.

The slightly older nun said, "Junior Sister Jingjiang, he can't speak, and he can't read."

But this person took out three silver notes at once, which was too much.

Su Zhen left the Princess Temple and followed the crowd into Yueyang Prefecture. She picked two medicine shops with the best reputations, handed the list to the other party, and agreed on a location. She bought a small courtyard in the city to use as a warehouse, so she only needed to deliver the goods to the warehouse.

The house was empty and boring, so she went around the city and moved a family of three to the small courtyard she bought. She assigned them the kitchen, utility room and main house, and kept the west wing as her medicine store. She wanted them to help her look after the house and the medicinal materials, and paid them one or two taels of silver every month.

The three beggars, a family of three, never thought that such a thing would exist in the world. So they were given a house and a monthly salary for their care.

Su Zhen said, "Old man, don't doubt me. I am a disciple of the Taoist sect and I don't lie. You can stay here with peace of mind. I will give you a monthly allowance of twelve taels of silver for the whole year. This afternoon, the people from the medicine shop will come to deliver the herbs. You can ask them to deliver them to the warehouse. I have something else to do and will be back later."

Late at night, she returned to the courtyard. Two warehouses were half filled with herbs. She put the herbs into storage bags.
