To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Yi Hui turned around and his eyes instantly turned red.

"Yuyu!" She stood up and hugged him. Her heart was no longer calm, like the sea that had been holding back for a long time, finally stirring up waves under the urging of the strong wind. "You're back."

Jiusu held her in one arm, letting her mother calm down in his arms.

Then she looked forward.

"Thank you."

Xu Jincai was really happy for her. She said, "There's no need to say thank you between us. I'm going back to the palace first. You should have a good rest. We'll get together again when we have time."

Yi Hui raised his head and gave Xu Jincai a sincere smile.

"These days, thanks to the princess, I love sour food, so she collected the sourest things in the world for me. Otherwise, I would be so upset."

She held her daughter's hand tightly.

She knew her daughter was older and knew the way home and wouldn't get lost, but she was still afraid.

When the Marquis heard the news, he hurried back.

And called the Jiang family.

It stayed warm for a while.

Li Ningwan sighed and said, "During the few days since you came back late, the court has undergone tremendous changes. The Prime Minister and the Prince have been locked up in their residences, and the Crown Prince has been kneeling in front of the Emperor's study for three days."

Jiusu was surrounded by her mother, mother-in-law, and Nian Yin. She smiled helplessly, "He's really not missing any limbs. Didn't the prince win the battle this time? Is the reward kneeling?"

This is incredible.

"At first, the Emperor was very pleased and wanted to confer the title of Crown Prince, but he only reprimanded the Prince of the County." Li Ningwan's expression was solemn, and he couldn't guess what the Emperor was thinking. "The Crown Prince then produced evidence of the Prince of the County collaborating with the enemy and committing treason."

Jiusu raised an eyebrow: "Isn't the emperor's punishment for the prince just to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors?"

Li Ningwan responded with a wry smile.

Because this is indeed the decision made by their "wise" emperor.

"The Emperor scolded the Crown Prince for being so greedy that he had murdered his own brothers. He also rebuked the Crown Prince for disrespecting the Emperor's authority by discussing this matter in court. After leaving the court in anger, he only summoned the Prime Minister. For unknown reasons, the Emperor also imprisoned the Prime Minister."

Jiang Jinyou said, "Now, the only explanation is that he pleaded for the prince and angered the emperor. But didn't the emperor meet the prime minister just to save the prince? This is too contradictory."

Jiang Jing guessed.

"Putting the Prime Minister under house arrest is to silence Youyou and to show the world. Since the Emperor hasn't figured out a way to save the Prince, he's planning to handle the situation coldly."

Treat it coldly? Jiusu's eyes flashed with coldness.

She looked to her side: "A Jing, when we come back, we have to go to the palace, right? There are some things that need to be handed over to the emperor."

One charge of treason is not enough.

What about the other two?

What about three servings?

If that's still not enough, she thought, the kingdom could change hands.

A light drizzle fell from the sky.

The water was poured on the prince. He raised his head and the dryness on his mouth felt much better. Suddenly, an umbrella blocked the sky above him. He thought it was someone sent by his mother, but it turned out to be Jiang Jing and his wife.

The heavy mood of many days became light.

"Why are you here? Is Madam Jiang okay?"

Jiusu said, "Thank you for your concern, Prince. I'm fine, but I heard from father that His Royal Highness doesn't seem to be feeling well."

Xu Qihuai laughed at himself, "According to what we had agreed upon before, I exposed Xu Cairong's crimes to his face, but Father still protected him. I can't imagine what would have happened if I had sent the evidence to Father first."

The prince under the umbrella looked like a gardenia that was about to wither.

The clothes on my body were wet by the rain.

It was as if the last bit of the prince's remaining sanity was slowly being devoured. Indeed, no one could understand why the emperor would be so unscrupulous in favor of Xu Cairong.

Maybe he favors the imperial concubine.

Perhaps it was because I had been creating an affectionate persona for myself for so long that I even deceived myself.

Watching Jiusu and Jiang Jing enter the imperial study.

Xu Qihuai straightened his back and said, "Xu Cairong, you're in big trouble."

The imperial study was filled with fragrance.

Emperor Xu leaned against the dragon throne with his eyes closed, while two maids rubbed his head and massaged his legs. Concubine Xi leaned in the emperor's arms, feeding him grapes with a charming look on her face, and had already captured the emperor's heart.

He took his legs off the stool and waved his hand to send the maid away.

"My dear ministers, the Crown Prince said you were delayed. I didn't expect you to return so soon."

Jiusu leaned forward slightly and said, "Thanks to your majesty, I didn't get into any accidents."

Xu Huang frowned slightly, obviously interested in what she said, but he also had a bad feeling in his heart. If he didn't ask, she wouldn't say anything. After a while, he couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

"Accident? How could there be an accident?"

Jiusu sighed, "Actually, the Crown Prince and I were returning to the capital together, but on the way, the Yi people suddenly attacked and kidnapped Bai Luoxue and me. They took us to Lilliput. However, the Lilliputian monarch betrayed us and forced Bai Luoxue and me to stay in the palace until Jiang Jing arrived and rescued us."

She pulled out two letters from her sleeve and handed them to Eunuch Shang.

"The Lilliputians and the Yi people are afraid of you, so they asked me to tell you the truth."

Xu Huang looked at the handwriting, his fingers tightly gripping the edge of the envelope, his breathing gradually becoming heavier, the corners of his mouth twitching as he could hardly suppress his anger, but when he thought that it was Xu Cairong again.

He felt a pang of grief in his heart.

"Is there any misunderstanding in this?"

Jiusu chuckled: "If this is a misunderstanding, then everyone saw with their own eyes that the prince had a private meeting with Yuwen Yingtian in Mobei."

Emperor Xu was so angry that he clenched his fists and coughed violently a few times.

"Perhaps you are colluding with the Crown Prince to frame Chang Rong?"

The rain outside was getting heavier. When the Queen heard that Jiusu had returned, she immediately led all the officials to the door of the Imperial Study, knelt down, and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, please severely punish those who betrayed the country!"

"Your Majesty, please severely punish those who betrayed our country!"

"Your Majesty, please severely punish those who betrayed our country!"

"..."

The mournful voices of the ministers, overlapping with the thunder, reached Emperor Xu's ears. He kicked the table in front of him and shouted angrily, "You want to rebel, huh?!"

The table kept rolling and directly knocked open the door of the hall.

Looking at the table, the ministers were so scared that they dared not speak. It was as if their heads were rolling on the ground.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

Emperor Xu could not calm down his anger.

Concubine Xi walked up to the emperor, pressed her body against him, and said softly, "Your Majesty, you have caught a cold these past few days. Please don't be angry anymore. Let me try."

Looking at the beautiful concubine biting her red lips.

Emperor Xu couldn't help but give her a kiss.

"You still care about me."

"If I don't care about you, who will?" Concubine Xi said, and then she walked towards Jiusu, holding Jiusu's hands with both hands, "Master Jiu, you may have really misunderstood, ah...!"

Suddenly, when a thunder struck.

Accompanied by painful screams.

Concubine Xi fell to the ground, her skirt stained with blood. She pointed at Jiusu and squeezed out a few words in pain: "Jiu, Jiusu, I have no grudge against you, why did you push me?"

Emperor Xu came back to his senses.

He didn't care about the blood and hugged Concubine Xi.

"My beloved, how are you? Lao Shang, why don't you go call the imperial physician!"
