I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

In the study, Old Man Hong handed Qin Chi a secret letter.

It was a secret letter from the palace.

Qin Chi asked people to keep an eye on the Yuan and Yang families.

Old Ghost Yuan suddenly submitted a secret memorial to the palace. Especially since his Yuan family was surrounded by enemies on all sides and was on the verge of collapse, this secret memorial must be crucial.

Qin Chi really wanted to know the content.

But it is not easy to know such things in the palace.

Unexpectedly, the secret letter handed over by Old Man Hong was exactly the content of Old Ghost Yuan’s secret report.

"This Minister Yuan should not be underestimated."

Qin Chi still thought that the Yuan family had no chance of turning things around, "He is really vicious."

What emperors have always feared and hated the most is the officials under them forming cliques for personal gain.

The Yuan family was blocked.

The one who was in dispute with the Yuan family was the Yang family. If the Yuan family was in such a miserable state, most people would believe it was the work of the Yang family. However, who had ever seen such a powerful Yang family?

While causing others to be wary.

What would Emperor Mingcheng think?

Old Man Hong nodded in agreement, "Old Yuan has never been a good guy. If he insists on dragging the Yang family down with him, the Yang family will not be able to get away with it. You know, there is still one person imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice prison."

After saying that, Old Man Hong glanced at Qin Chi obscurely.

The young are to be feared, but he doesn't say it.

Who in the outside world knew that the person pushing all this behind the scenes was actually the young man with the cold eyes in front of them.

There was no Qin Chi to interfere.

It is estimated that the Yang and Yuan families are still keeping to themselves for now.

Qin Chi folded the secret letter and held it above the oil lamp on the desk. The small flame ignited the letter, and when it was two-thirds burned, he threw it into the brazier at his feet.

"The former crown prince seems to be behind the Yang family." Qin Chi thought of the master behind Yang Ge Lao, "The other party will not let the Yang family get into trouble easily. Uncle Hong, among the people who surfaced to help the Yang family this time, there must be the former crown prince's influence."

How much exactly it is has not yet been investigated.

Qin Chi handed the investigation of the matter over to Old Man Hong.

After some discussion.

Qin Chi added: "I want to take my wife back to Huizhou."

"Madam, you shouldn't be tired from traveling by boat or by train." Old Man Hong disagreed.

Qin Chi sighed, "I can't stay in the capital for too long, we can take our time on the road. However, we just need to let the people in the mansion make preparations and let people know. We can use this opportunity to prepare for a few more days, but it doesn't mean we have to set off right away."

"My subordinate understands."

Old Man Hong understood the implicit meaning.

That is to create a false impression, and first let the servants pack their bags and prepare things for the family to return home.

Qin Chi didn't know at this time.

The secret memorial written by Yuan Shang was extremely powerful.

Admiral Feng was kneeling in front of Emperor Ming Cheng, his back wet with sweat and big beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. Not only did he not dare to reach out to wipe the sweat, he didn't even dare to move.

"You are quite capable."

Emperor Mingcheng sneered, "With just one sentence, you can make the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture change the place where the prisoner was originally scheduled to be sent to work. How come I don't know when I gave you this power?"

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. It was my fault."

Admiral Feng was so frightened that his face turned pale and he kowtowed repeatedly.

Emperor Mingcheng asked again: "Who is behind you?"

"Your Majesty, I am your servant and have always been loyal to you. This time, I was tempted by a ghost and thought that changing the place of work was not a big deal and I could get some benefits..."

Admiral Feng was unable to continue.

A hard object hit him on the head, causing him to scream in pain.

The next moment, his head was broken and bleeding.

Emperor Mingcheng grabbed the ruler on the table and smashed it, "Tell me the truth."

"Your Majesty, please spare my life! What I said is true. I am just a little greedy. I have never done anything that I cannot do for Your Majesty. I would rather die than betray Your Majesty."

Admiral Feng kowtowed and begged for mercy.

While begging for mercy, he said, "I have always been loyal to Your Majesty, as the sun and the moon can attest."

"roll!"

Emperor Mingcheng raised his hand and said, "Throw him into the Imperial Prison."

The Jinyiwei guards standing by responded in unison, and two of them stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, dragging Admiral Feng out.

When Admiral Feng wanted to beg for mercy again, someone directly removed Admiral Feng's jaw.

Suddenly, the cries for mercy that were ringing in the hall stopped.

Admiral Feng's secretive behavior made Emperor Mingcheng suspicious of Yang Ge Lao. When Yang Ge Lao entered the palace that day, his behavior was covert but he did not escape the investigation of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

If Admiral Feng generously admitted that he was entrusted by Lord Yang.

Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty was probably not that suspicious. According to what was written in the secret report, Yang Ge Lao was asked by Liu Bingzheng to help Liu Bingzheng's son.

Liu Bingzheng himself was the head of the Imperial Medical Service.

"The Imperial Hospital, the Imperial Household Department, the Yang family? Ha!"

Emperor Mingcheng sneered at the news reported by the Jinyiwei investigation.

In the past, the relationship with Concubine Shu, coupled with the fact that the Yang family had never sent any daughter of the Yang family into the palace, was very different from some ministers who tried their best to send their daughters or granddaughters into the palace. This made Emperor Mingcheng trust the Yang family very much and was very tolerant of them.

The appearance of the sandalwood box.

This broke Emperor Mingcheng's favorable impression of the Yang family.

Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty did not do nothing.

A few days ago, he ordered people to lock up the palace maid who served Concubine Shu in the past in a secluded room. Emperor Mingcheng dismissed his attendants and interrogated her alone.

One palace servant did not answer and hit his head against the wall and died.

Emperor Cheng of the Ming Dynasty directly ordered the body to be dragged out, and then ordered people to find out the other party's family members and arrest them all in prison and execute them.

This move startled the people behind.

Finally, someone couldn't help but tell the truth. Before entering the palace, the concubine did have a lover, and that person discovered it secretly. Someone else also said that in the days before the concubine's death, she was depressed and cried secretly at night.

Emperor Mingcheng thought of Concubine Shu's serene smile before her death.

A surge of anger surged in my heart again.

You clearly have someone in your heart, yet you are so unhappy?

You have to pretend to be affectionate in front of him. Are you trying to fool him like a fool?

Emperor Ming Cheng knew the answer.

The palace maids who served Concubine Shu were beheaded on the same day.

No one knows the outcome of his interrogation.

Emperor Mingcheng then suppressed his anger and behaved in a non-troublesome manner, just like in the past.

It's not that I still have a good impression of the Yang family.

It's the man's damn self-esteem that's causing the problem.

Even if Emperor Mingcheng wanted to deal with the Yang family, he would definitely not bring up the matter of Concubine Shu.
