After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

"Hmph, Lord Changping, don't play dumb when you know the truth. It's all over the streets and alleys. Your daughter loves handsome men all over the world, and when they refuse, she's so heartless that she made her country fiancée's legs shorter and even gave her brother-in-law an aphrodisiac. She has absolutely no manners and is a wanton promiscuous person!"

Lord Jiang was not at all intimidated and retorted loudly.

It's no wonder that everyone in the court, including civil and military officials, had heard the rumor, and even the emperor had secretly watched the fun.

The Earl of Changping blushed. "This is slander! My son is now the Crown Prince of Ning's wife. If she has any flaws in her character, how could she enter the Ning Palace?"

Of course he knew about these messed up rumors.

Not only did she hear about it from outside, but her silly daughter Su Xiran also went back home because she was worried.

He said he wanted to come forward to clarify for his sister, saying that she is not that kind of person.

This child has been kind-hearted since childhood, but he was stopped at that time. The Ning Wang Mansion is not a pushover and has its own ways to deal with it, but they cannot involve their other daughter.

Ahem, before Prince Ning's Mansion could take action, the Fang Tong incident happened. However, no one paid any attention to the rumor, and he was relieved about it.

Unexpectedly, it was exposed in public again.

"That's not necessarily true. Perhaps Prince Ning was deceived, or perhaps young people are blinded by love, or perhaps they just have similar interests."

Lord Jiang is being sarcastic.

These words were too suggestive, and even the powerful King Ning couldn't pretend to be stupid.

"Master Jiang, please be careful with your words. These are just some gossips from the ignorant people outside. Without any concrete evidence, it is best not to stir up trouble in the court."

Just now, some people in the court suspected that his son had killed a beggar and was taking credit for it, but he remained in his position.

He let Lao Ba fight back for him, but now, since the reputation of the entire mansion was at stake, he couldn't admit it.

Otherwise, what if others really think that his son is Su Qingya's bootlicker?

So embarrassing.

"Who said there's no evidence? I've sent people to investigate. Before Su Qingya returned to Beijing, she was indeed engaged. After Qin Yan broke his leg, she didn't want to go through with the marriage..."

Another minister spoke up.

As they were talking, they somehow ended up talking about Su Qingya's ingratitude and unfilial behavior, as well as her discord with the Fang family, several conflicts between them, and violations of the law.

The Bo Mansion and the Ning Wang Mansion have always kept these matters well hidden and have never mentioned them in the capital.

But now, it seems to have become a secret known to everyone in the world.

Prince Ning wanted to make some excuses, but he couldn't open his mouth. Some things could not be concealed if he went to Huai'an Prefecture to ask.

No one knew about it before because no one cared.

In the end, for some unknown reason, one official after another, based on the results of the Cengong investigation, said that the horse had gone mad after eating the Drunken Horse Grass.

That's for Fang Tong.

Fang Tong is a ninth-rank official. He came to Beijing only to participate in a dim sum competition and he has never offended anyone. Who would want to harm him?

That must be Su Qingya who has a grudge against him!

Maybe Prince Ning and Earl Changping are both accomplices.

Wow, the logic is actually quite reasonable. Ceng Gong said nothing and just looked up at the dragon throne.

The emperor was not in a hurry at all. He drank his tea slowly and listened to their verbal battle, as if he was enjoying the show.

Ceng Gong then stood obediently with his hands hanging down, reducing his presence.

Some people just watch the fun, some add fuel to the fire, and some are furious.

Prince Ning was furious: "Your Majesty, what they said is all pure speculation, without a single shred of evidence. It's clear they are deliberately deceiving you. This is the crime of deceiving the emperor."

So cruel.

The crime of deceiving the emperor is punishable by beheading.

A group of officials were angered by Prince Ning's words.

"Bah! We're just analyzing things rationally. If Prince Ning isn't guilty, why would he be so anxious?"

"I also heard that Su Qingya's adoptive father, Fang Jin, disappeared inexplicably. I'm afraid he was silenced by Prince Ning's Mansion, right?"

Someone took the opportunity to speak.

This statement escalated the matter to a higher level. No matter how arrogant the Ning Wang Mansion is, they cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately.

The Earl of Changping looked at the person who spoke with a bad look, while the King of Ning looked at the Earl of Changping with a fierce look in his eyes.

Could it be that this idiot didn't clean up his mess?

The morning court passed in such a noisy manner.

Most people's attention shifted to Prince Ning's greed for merit and recklessness, and Su Qingya's framing of Fang Tong and his wife.

They even forgot that Fang Yin was still fighting at the border.

As soon as Prince Ning returned home, he smashed a set of cups.

He keenly sensed that something was wrong, as if someone was targeting him.

No, it’s directed at Qingyao.

First, the beggar incident caused the emperor to suspect the prince, and now the carriage-killed case has been pinned on him.

Who is it?

What is the other party’s purpose?

Perhaps the real person behind the carriage attack was looking for a scapegoat? Was he treating his son as a soft target?

Or perhaps their secret preparations were discovered? They were trying to exploit this situation.

Is it the emperor?

Prince Ning shook his head, thinking it was impossible. The Emperor had no reason to doubt him, and everything was normal with the Empress Dowager.

After thinking for a while, he called out: "Come here, go check what the Crown Prince's Consort has been doing recently."

This idiot, could it be that he really couldn't help but do something stupid?

He looked down on his daughter-in-law because she was too stupid, too naive, and her mind was full of love.

However, it also has advantages. It is easy to use, and most importantly, it has creative ideas and can produce things that are very useful.

Prince Ning felt that everything that happened was inexplicable.

The person who framed Fang Tong was also confused.

He had prepared a scapegoat in advance, but he didn't dare to attack Prince Ning's Mansion.

In any case, his plan has already begun, and Fang Yin should have received the letter.

Indeed, he received it. Fang Yin was not very literate in the Qin family and was always idle, but after becoming his disciple, Meng Yi did not let him go.

To be a military general, you don't need to speak a lot of nonsense, but you still have to learn the necessary characters. Otherwise, not only will you not be able to understand the art of war, you won't even be able to think of how to argue with the enemy on the battlefield. Wouldn't that make you a loser?

Fang Yin sat in the carriage and hurriedly read the letter.

The letter said that his third brother's carriage had killed General An's godfather, and that General An had put pressure on him. The court had ordered that he be executed in public five days later.

Fang Yin curled his lips and ordered, "Go find out who sent this letter. It's a liar. Catch him for me."

"Yes!" The subordinate immediately went to find the messenger.

Fang Yin straightened his back and looked across.

A mile away from him were the last elite soldiers of the Xiaonan Barbarians.

"Mr. Fang, we, the Southern Barbarians, are willing to surrender. Don't be so unreasonable."

"General Fang, whether to negotiate or continue the war is up to your emperor, right? You'd better not act so stubbornly."

The two young Nanman generals shouted loudly.

Fang Yin scratched his ear and smiled innocently: "You said you surrendered, but why don't you hang up the white flag?"

On the battlefield, surrender also has rules, and it cannot be counted just by saying it verbally.

"Ah, Fang, don't be so arrogant. It was you who deliberately had the flagpole shot down!"

The general of the little southern barbarian screamed in anger.

For ten consecutive days, the white flags they hung were either secretly taken down by others or the flagpoles broke.
