Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 431

In the imperial study room.

Emperor Mingde's ears felt hot, as if someone was talking about him. He had just finished reviewing the memorials, and then he picked up the closing memorial of Pei Yu and Xiao Changhe's fraud case to read.

After reading it, he picked up another secret document that had not been read by Dongyu Wei.

He has read this document no less than ten times in recent days.

It’s the Marquis of Jian’an Mansion again!

The Jian'an Marquis Mansion has either been silent for decades, as if it did not exist; or big events have been happening every day, and each big event is different, but each one is enough to be thrilling.

For example, in the case at hand, Emperor Mingde sent the Western Shadow Guard to investigate the Dengwen Drum incident, and the results of the investigation were jaw-dropping.

The Dengwen Drum incident was originally aimed at the Yunqi Academy sponsored by the Jian'an Marquis Mansion, and the source also came from the Jian'an Marquis Mansion.

This is very interesting.

You should know that restarting a basic test will consume countless human, financial and material resources.

The result turned out to be nothing more than a turmoil caused by jealousy of a housewife.

How to deal with this?

The Jian'an Marquis Mansion was both a victim and the instigator.

If the punishment is too lenient, he is afraid that others will follow suit; if the punishment is too severe... he feels he cannot bring himself to do it.

Emperor Mingde had a very good impression of Yunqi Academy and felt that this was the huge reserve force for the prosperity of the North Wing.

If this treatment continues, the Jian'an Hou Mansion will be severely damaged, and the Yunqi Academy will also be severely damaged.

After all, it was his North Wing's vitality that was injured.

In addition, because the Jian'an Hou Mansion was involved in the Dengwen Drum case. He gave a secret order to Xiying Wei to check on Tang Chujun.

Long Jiang, the chief of the Western Shadow Guard, has been in office for so many years that he can grasp the essence of the orders given by Emperor Mingde just by listening once.

But this time, Long Jiang didn't understand Emperor Mingde's meaning for a long time.

At that time, I had the courage to ask one more question, "Your Majesty, what kind of information does this subordinate need to find out about the Second Madam Shi?"

Emperor Mingde answered him, "In all aspects."

Longjiang had always known that Emperor Mingde was not the kind of foolish emperor who was obsessed with women, so he really didn't understand what he meant by checking "all aspects" of a woman.

So he started to investigate "all aspects" to get the job done, including that Tang used to be cowardly, easily sad, and rarely went out; now she has become cheerful and efficient; and he also found out that the eldest daughter of the Duke of the Guard had been separated from her husband for many years and their relationship was not harmonious...

Emperor Mingde knew that the young woman who smiled like a flower was not in harmony with her husband. No wonder her husband had eight concubines and a maid in the backyard. It would be strange if they had a good relationship.

Then he thought of himself. In fact, eight concubines and a maid were not that many. Look at his own harem... Oh, my head hurts.

He has no right to say who has more women. How can anyone have more than him?

No one believed him when he said it. The harem was a huge burden to him.

It was in such wild thoughts that I heard Eunuch Qi coming to report, "Your Majesty, a messenger from the guards outside the palace came in, saying that Shi Chengyi, the Minister of Punishment, was kneeling barefoot at the gate of the palace to apologize to the Emperor."

"Barefoot?" Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows slightly.

Eunuch Qi bowed and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. Lord Shi has come barefoot to ask for forgiveness."

Emperor Mingde placed his hand on the top secret letter, moved his fingers slightly, and said calmly, "Then kneel barefoot."

If a girl doesn’t teach her, it’s her father’s fault. If he doesn’t kneel, who will?

Eunuch Qi stepped back and sent a message, "The emperor said, let him kneel."
