Stay calm, don't panic, Her Royal Highness the Princess is going to reveal more news
Chapter 118 No girl is always 8 years old, but there are always 8-year-old girls
Before going to bed, Ji Qionghua heard news from the Liu family.
Liu Shuang and her child were taken back to the Liu family, and the imperial physician was invited to treat them. Fortunately, they were treated in time and their lives were saved.
Liu Heng was domineering enough to make the decision directly, asking Liu Shuang to divorce Wang Ba, which was also a disgrace to the Wang family.
The Shui Yunjin incident led to the arrest of Lord Wang and Wang Ba together.
Lord Wang lost his official position because of this.
The once prominent Wang family of the capital was eliminated from the court.
As for Yun Ge.
A mistress has messed up the Wang family like this. I'm afraid that after the child is born, the Wang family will deal with her.
The incident at the Wang family seemed to be a signal.
For several days in a row, the Jinyiwei in the capital were busy coming and going.
Some officials began to work with their heads down again.
The emperor liked to have lunch with the empress, and Ji Qionghua heard about it.
Through Furong Tower, the emperor collected a lot of evidence against Marquis Wencheng.
At the morning court today, the newly promoted Inspector-General and Deputy Imperial Envoy Yi Kai wrote a memorial impeaching Marquis Wencheng for corruption, bribery, forming a clique for personal gain, and being disrespectful to the emperor.
Every detail was written in black and white, catching Wencheng Hou off guard.
These crimes were punishable by death, but the emperor knew that the greatest crime charged against Marquis Wencheng was conspiracy.
"Your Majesty, please eat more."
The queen just listened quietly without saying a word.
Ji Qionghua also sat at the table, leaning on a specially made chair, drinking sweet soup with a spoon.
The sweet taste in his mouth made the little guy squint his eyes happily.
【Today's morning court is really lively. 】
Ji Qionghua sighed.
Marquis Wencheng's influence spread to many places.
When he was suddenly impeached, there would definitely be a lot of people standing up to speak up for Marquis Wencheng.
Even if the evidence is conclusive, due to his many activities, Marquis Wencheng may not be sentenced to death.
But the emperor was not prepared to give Marquis Wencheng a chance to turn things around.
To prove the king's determination, even Concubine Xian was ordered not to leave the bedroom.
The virtuous concubine, who used to be the most active, was eerily quiet this time.
The oppressive feeling of impending storm made the concubines in the harem much more obedient. In the past few days, no one dared to come to the emperor to curry favor with him.
[Marquis Wencheng may have anticipated this day and even found a scapegoat.]
Among the charges that Yi Kai impeached today, some can be circumvented. With some deletions and reductions, the worst that can happen to Marquis Wencheng is dismissal from office.
This is not what the emperor wants to see.
The emperor was also thinking about this matter.
Today, the Royal Guards personally went to the home of Marquis Wencheng to search the house, but found no more evidence.
The entire Jian family seemed to be clean and honest; even the money in the warehouse, every transaction in and out was recorded.
Some people among the people believe that Marquis Wencheng was framed.
The emperor needed conclusive evidence.
【Is there no one checking Wenchenghou's private life? 】
The little princess was full and pushed the bowl away.
He picked up another meat bone and threw it to Bubai who was squatting at his feet to grind his teeth.
[Haven't you noticed that most of the maids in Wenchenghou's household are young girls? ]
Except for the wet nurses and nannies who were close to the ladies, all the maids in the Jian family were very young.
And this was what Marquis Wencheng requested.
He likes young women.
Even if he did not harm the servants in his family, there were still people who made the Jian family prosperous and splendor in order to please him.
[The concubine that Wencheng Hou brought in this year is eighteen years old.]
[It's so tender. 】
[He likes young wives. ]
[He had not stepped into the room of the old lady of the Marquisate in his home for several years, and he had also given away some of the older concubines.]
In this era, concubines in the family are not masters, but commodities.
Many officials gave their concubines to others as favors, and they would play with them and share them.
Marquis Wencheng is one of them.
But he has high standards and only likes young and beautiful women.
[As long as they were over 25, he would think that the girls were old and he had had enough fun, so he would give them away as a favor.]
For Wencheng Hou, seeing those men accept the women he had played with was also a sense of accomplishment.
Those who followed Marquis Wencheng were also very satisfied with the "gifts" sent by Shangguan.
This represents the closeness of the relationship.
[As the saying goes, no girl is always eighteen years old, but there are always eighteen-year-old girls. ]
[There is a teaching house in the capital, which is owned by Marquis Wencheng and is used to provide young women for himself.]
[On the surface, this music school has nothing to do with Wencheng Hou. ]
【It is for this reason that Wencheng Hou hid many things in this teaching house. 】
A cunning rabbit has three burrows, and Marquis Wencheng never puts all his eggs in one basket.
Being fickle and suspicious is the weakness of Marquis Wencheng.
[The Jinyiwei have been keeping a close eye on him these past few days, and now Wencheng Hou is still locked up in a cell. Just an hour ago, someone went to visit Wencheng Hou.]
Hearing this, the emperor lost his composure.
He had issued an order that no one was allowed to go to the Heavenly Prison to see Marquis Wencheng.
[That person is a die-hard fan of Marquis Wencheng, and he spent a lot of money to smooth the relationship.]
[He received an order from Marquis Wencheng to go to the Jiaofang tonight and destroy all the evidence.]
The emperor suddenly understood.
Perhaps he can sit back and wait tonight.
The emperor reached out and pinched the little girl's face as a reward, but the little princess expressed suspicion.
After slapping the emperor's hand away, Ji Qionghua looked towards the door.
【The virtuous concubine is here. 】
Sure enough, a palace maid came to report, and it was Rufeng who personally led Concubine Xian in.
"Who let you out?"
The moment the emperor saw Concubine Xian, his expression turned cold.
Like father, like daughter.
Concubine Xian was under house arrest.
"Your Majesty, please don't blame me. I threatened them with my life to let me out."
Concubine Xian knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply.
Today, the virtuous imperial concubine is no longer dressed in her former elegant and luxurious attire. She is now dressed in white and has a jade hairpin, looking like a lotus emerging from clear water.
"Your Majesty, I would like to give this to Your Majesty."
Concubine Xian took out a letter with the seal of Marquis Wencheng on the envelope.
Ruyun took it and presented it to the emperor.
He pushed it open with his fingers, revealing a piece of letter paper inside, which contained records of some private property belonging to Marquis Wencheng.
However, there was no record of these industries among the things collected by the Jinyiwei.
Part of it was the royal family's property, which was taken into the hands of Marquis Wencheng.
"Bastard thing!"
The emperor slapped the table, causing the wine glass to vibrate and spill.
Ji Qionghua looked at her wet clothes and pouted as if she wanted to cry.
She just wore this dress today.
"Damn father!"
The little princess muttered, jumping down herself and kicking the emperor's calf.
Her behavior of taking advantage of her favor made Concubine Xian sweat.
You know, the emperor was furious at the morning court today, and all the officials implicated in the incident of Marquis Wencheng were stripped naked and thrown into jail.
[The virtuous concubine is here to kill her own relatives for the sake of justice. 】
[Father, just go with the flow and confiscate these properties. You will definitely find something new.]
[For example, raising private soldiers, embezzling hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and the letters that Wencheng Hou recently received from the Nanman.]
