Chapter 57 The new minister of Dali Temple
The old lady and Jiang looked at each other and thought that Zhou Ge'er was very efficient. Just as they thought, as long as the Fourth Prince stepped forward, there would be room for the situation to turn around.
The old lady bowed to the emperor and began to narrate Fu Di's situation one by one.
"The late old marquis felt that the matter about Fu Di and his son was really... really... Alas! As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be made public, so the old marquis had to secretly conceal the matter and found a reason to drive the servant out of the mansion. Originally, no one else knew about this matter except the old marquis and myself. Who would have thought that the servant who had disappeared for many years would appear in this monster form this time."
After hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but stroke his beard, trying hard to digest this matter that was beyond his understanding.
The Fourth Prince would never believe that the old lady would know about this. Just now, Cheng Zhou came to see him in a hurry and quickly explained the whole story. He knew that such a secret matter must be the little wild cat's inner thoughts that were overheard by them again.
When I thought of that little wild cat, I realized that I haven’t heard her voice for some time!
"Father, I heard that it was General Zhao Yang who reported this, saying that the Marquis of Zhenbei secretly kept a woman in the military camp and spent every night with this woman. Now some ministers suspect that this woman is a spy from the enemy country? Some adults even said that the Marquis of Zhenbei threw the safety of his soldiers behind his mind for this woman? This makes me a little confused? If it is true as General Zhao said that the Marquis of Zhenbei is with the woman every night... then how come no one knew that this person is neither male nor female for nearly two years? The real identity of this monster is obviously the servant of the Marquis of Zhenbei, but some people swear that this is a spy from the enemy country? And this disregard for the safety of the soldiers? I think that is even more nonsense? The Dongling Kingdom just ceded a few cities to surrender, have you forgotten, father? "
Upon hearing the prince's analysis, the emperor immediately patted his thigh happily and said: "Prince's words make sense, but the Marquis of Zhenbei brought a woman to the military camp after all..."
"Your Majesty, I just heard from the Marquis's wife that the Marquis of Zhenbei placed Fu Di in the military camp because Fu Di used Liang Xiyun's face. Has your Majesty forgotten the story of the Marquis of Zhenbei and Ehuang and Nvying at that time? I think the Marquis of Zhenbei missed his old friend too much, so he was confused for a moment. However, according to the current situation, the Marquis of Zhenbei should only miss the old friend and did not have much contact with Fu Di. Otherwise, how could he know nothing about it after so long? Your Majesty, is that right?"
The emperor nodded and said: "My beloved concubine is right. Although the Marquis of Zhenbei was wrong in this matter, it is understandable. It is not what those ministers said!"
"Father, the family of the Marquis of Zhenbei has been loyal for generations and has repeatedly quelled wars. This incident seems to me to be more like a conspiracy by spies from the enemy country, just to bring down the Marquis of Zhenbei and disrupt the stability of my Xuanyue country..."
Murong Jingchu knew that all this was definitely related to the Crown Prince and the Grand Tutor, but groundless speculation without evidence would only offend the people in the Queen's faction.
"Your Highness, what you said makes sense. We should not let these villains take advantage of us. However, it is a fact that the Marquis of Zhenbei secretly kept a woman. So, let's fine the Marquis of Zhenbei one year's salary as a warning to others."
"Your Majesty is wise..."
"Your Majesty is wise..."
"Father is wise..."
The old lady and Jiang kept bowing and saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The emperor felt that the matter was perfectly resolved and was very pleased. However, he still favored the Marquis of Zhenbei selfishly.
You know, with a brave and warlike general like Song Boyan around, the enemy countries will be wary of Xuan Yue Kingdom. He doesn't want to destroy such a useful weapon.
Now that the matter has been perfectly resolved, the emperor can finally put his mind at ease. However, he had never heard of a monster with both a woman's body and male characteristics.
"Chu'er, take your father's order to the Dali Temple, and take a look at what this monster looks like for your father???"
Murong Jingchu bowed quickly and said with a smile: "I will obey your order. Not to mention you, father, I am also very curious..."
The matter was resolved satisfactorily, and Concubine Chen was happy for her younger sister. After hearing what her son said, she smiled and said, "Don't mention Chu'er, even I am very curious! Chu'er, come back and tell your mother about it..."
The old lady and Jiang quickly thanked her and left...
As soon as he saw his grandmother and mother coming out of the palace, Song Chengyan immediately went to greet them.
"Grandma, mother, is everything going well?"
The old lady clasped her hands together and said devoutly: "Thanks to the blessing of our ancestors, we are finally safe and sound. This is not the place to talk. Let's go back to the Marquis' Mansion first."
Jiang nodded, and the three of them got on the carriage. After getting on the carriage, Jiang's tense mood finally relaxed.
"This time, thanks to the Imperial Concubine and the Fourth Prince's pleading, things have been able to turn around..."
The old lady nodded in agreement and said, "That's right. Although Yan'er didn't hide a woman in the military camp, Yan'er didn't know that Fu Xiyun was Fu Di. If those ministers insisted on accusing him of this, it would be a serious crime. Fortunately, with the guidance of the Fourth Prince and the Imperial Concubine, it seems that the Emperor only gave a minor punishment and a severe warning. This crisis was finally overcome safely..."
When Song Chengyan heard that the emperor only fined him one year's salary, he said in an excited tone: "Grandmother, so this matter is over???"
Seeing his grandmother and mother nod, Song Chengyan clapped his hands together and immediately smiled...
Dali Temple...
The newly appointed Dali Temple Minister, Lord Yu, is the prince's man. This time he is in charge of interrogating the case of Marquis Zhenbei hiding a woman in the military camp. Lord Yu has long been taken care of by the Grand Tutor. First, he must determine that Marquis Zhenbei hid the woman in the military camp during the battle between the two armies, and second, it would be best to identify the woman as a spy from the enemy country.
"My Lord, I am following the order of His Majesty to thoroughly investigate the matter of you hiding women in your military camp. In order to investigate the case, I can only summon you to question you. Please forgive me if I have offended you..."
Song Boyan was very disdainful when he saw Yu Siqing's smug look. He snorted coldly and said, "Master Yu, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. During the battle between the two armies, I and the generals discussed military affairs in my tent every day. How could there be an outsider in my tent? Not to mention a woman?"
Seeing that Song Boyan refused to admit it, Yu Siqing had no choice but to use his trump card. Yu Siqing looked at Song Boyan confidently, and then said: "Come here, bring up Fu Xiyun, the important criminal in this case..."
Several yamen runners brought Fu Xiyun up. When passing by Song Boyan, Fu Xiyun couldn't help but look at him, with strange feelings in her eyes that she couldn't hide. Finally, Fu Xiyun was forced to kneel down.
Yu Siqing slammed the gavel and asked, "What is the name of the prisoner?"
"The commoner girl Fu Xiyun..."
Song Boyan looked at the demon wearing the Xiyun mask, and instead of the strong emotions he had when he first saw an old friend, he felt a sense of nausea...
"My Lord, you should be familiar with this person, right? This is the woman you secretly hid in the camp."
"I rescued this woman by accident. I felt sorry for her, so I arranged for her to work for the cook who was buying food. There was no such thing as hiding a woman as Lord Yu said..."
Yu Siqing knew that if he asked the Marquis of Zhenbei, he would not admit it, so he had to put pressure on Fu Xiyun. He slammed the gavel heavily and asked in a cold voice: "Fu Xiyun, I want to ask you, General Zhao Yang said that you and the Marquis had secret meetings in the military camp every night, is this true?"
"My Lord, it is unjust. The Marquis and I are innocent. There is no such thing as these unfounded things. Please investigate thoroughly..."
"Well... it seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin. If I don't use some tricks on you, I'm afraid it will be difficult to pry your mouth open! My Lord, if you don't want your sweetheart to suffer, you should take the initiative to confess everything, so that I won't use force."
Yu Siqing wanted to put pressure on Song Boyan with words. He thought that since General Zhao had said so, and the two of them were in love with each other in the army every day, the Marquis of Zhenbei would not really be willing to let his beloved get hurt.
Song Boyan was completely disgusted by the word "sweetheart" and couldn't help cursing: "You are blind. Which eye of yours saw that I was interested in this person? I have no interest in this person at all. Yu Siqing slandered me. I will report the crime to the emperor truthfully and ask the emperor to do justice for me."
Fu Xiyun couldn't stop feeling heartbroken. Why couldn't he get any favor from Liang Xiyun even though he was wearing Liang Xiyun's face? Why?
Yu Siqing, who was scolded, was embarrassed for a moment. He snorted coldly: "I have been ordered to investigate this case. Since the Marquis is so stubborn, I have no choice but to offend him. Come, torture him..."
