After Xu Xing left the palace, he went straight to the villa.

Jiang Hao was in great form on the chessboard, defeating Zhang Zhongjing three games in a row, and making old Zhang so frustrated that he kept shouting, "I don't want to play anymore."

"Sir."

Zhang Zhongjing saw Xu Xing as his savior and was extremely excited: "Come and dampen her spirit. I suspect she is cheating."

The white and black pieces each hold their own side. If you lose, you lose. There is no need to cheat.

But Zhang Zhongjing just felt uncomfortable. Not only was his medical skills, cooking skills and martial arts not as good as this girl, but his chess skills were also beaten by her. He was so embarrassed!

Hearing this, Jiang Hao smiled and said, "Others would bring the younger ones back to the older ones. Why do you want your grandfather to move it back for you?"

Zhang Zhongjing said proudly: "The prince is very powerful..."

But the slap in the face didn't come too quickly, Xu Xing said without hesitation: "You forgot that I was also defeated by her."

Zhang Zhongjing: "...Is it true or false?"

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Xu Xing had serious business to discuss with Jiang Hao. After comforting the elderly with a few words, he let them go about their business.

As soon as the people left, the yard became quiet.

Xu Xing told Jiang Hao in detail about what happened during his trip to Jinzhou Prefecture. What he actually saw on the Li family's territory was actually more serious than what was heard by Emperor Su Wen.

The Li family is bolder than imagined. Old Master Li and his nephews rely on Concubine Chun in the palace and their son who holds a high position, and they are the bullies in the local area.

Even the prefect in charge of Jinzhou Prefecture had his grievances to express.

Jiang Hao also understood what Xu Xing was doing in Jinzhou Prefecture.

"Your Majesty, are you planning to take action against the Li family?"

Xu Xing acquiesced: "Concubine Chun and His Majesty the Eighth Prince have always been selfless and have never fought or competed with each other, which inevitably makes His Majesty feel more pity for them. But suddenly, someone reported that their mother's family was doing all kinds of evil in the base camp, despising the imperial power and even challenging the imperial power. No matter how much His Majesty pities them, he can't just sit back and do nothing. This is the Xie family's kingdom, not the Li family's."

Which royal family doesn't have some dirt and tricks? Xu Xing doesn't dare to pat his chest and guarantee that his Xu family doesn't have any. However, there are not many families as arrogant and rampant as the Li family.

They dare to do this just because they take advantage of the fact that Concubine Chun is favored but does not compete for favor!

"Since the prince is back, has he obtained the evidence?"

"There is still some important evidence that needs to be collected."

Xu Xing did not tell the truth to Emperor Su Wen, but he did not hide it from Jiang Hao: "The specifications of the mausoleum in the Li family's ancestral cemetery have exceeded the regulations for ordinary princes, which is absolutely not allowed. In addition, the Li family also built a temple and erected a statue for themselves to accept the worship of the people..."

hiss~~

Jiang Haoping was so quiet that he was speechless.

Emperor Suwen was the son of heaven and was worshipped by people all over the world, but he did not build a temple or erect a statue for himself for people to worship.

This Li family is amazing!

After the two of them digested the news in silence for a while, Jiang Hao asked again, "Do you know who reported them?"

This incident certainly did not happen overnight. The person who reported it waited until now to take action because he was holding back on a big move, with the intention of sending the Li family and Concubine Chun and her son into hell at some critical moment.

Xu Xing shook his head and said he didn't know: "The emperor didn't say anything."

After a pause, he continued, "These are the people vying for the crown prince position in recent times. No matter who this person is, he is just a supporter behind these popular candidates."

"The royal family has always been heartless, and those in power are always cold-blooded and cruel."

Jiang Hao smiled faintly. As long as it was confirmed, the fate of the three clans of Li Jiayi would be unavoidable!
