Lord Chen really wanted to roll his eyes at Lin Rong.

Does he need to remind me?

How could he not know the motive behind Yuan Jinyi and the others?

Isn't this a process, from the simplest to the most complex? How can you just start right away?

Lord Chen cleared his throat and continued, "Your Majesty, I later investigated this matter and overheard a few of them chatting. Only then did I understand why they did this upon returning to the capital."

"Why?" The emperor frowned, but at this time he was really a little curious.

Mr. Chen said, "Because the Yuan family's status is not very high, but Yuan Jinyi himself is a person with a very high self-esteem, and the few people they play with are actually similar."

I just said this by the way.

However, Concubine Yu and the Fifth Princess have clearly been gaining favor recently.

Lord Chen was originally a lackey, and he subconsciously did not mention Yu Xu at this time, so as not to involve Concubine Yu and anger the emperor.

Annoying the emperor is one thing, but the fear is that if the anger is diverted away and the emperor does not punish Yuan Jinyi, then Prince Jin's goal will be frustrated. Lord Chen is afraid that Prince Jin will have his head twisted around his neck.

So he is only talking about Yuan Jinyi now, because the Yuan family’s status is really not high.

"Yuan Jinyi hasn't proposed yet, and he's been away for many years, so he just returned to the capital. They want to make a splash and make people of their age in the capital a little afraid of them, so they picked someone to set up the scheme, and they chose Dai Shizi."

"Moreover, they said that Yuan Jinyi and his group had basically done the same thing in Jiangnan before. It quickly made them intimidating, and then people would become afraid of them and want to curry favor with them, thinking they were from a very powerful family."

"The most important thing is that they would give them money and gifts. So, Yuan Jinyi made a lot of money by using this disguised method to establish his authority."

These things were discovered by Lin Rong.

Moreover, it was Lin Rong who took the initiative to bring the news to him.

Lin Rong was afraid of this and that, and felt it was not appropriate for him to speak out about this matter, so he pushed Chen Deshan out.

Lord Chen originally thought that these should be checked first and put aside, and then more should be checked later and presented to King Jin when needed.

Who would have thought that Prince Jin would reveal this matter now?

Originally, Yuan Jinyi could have lived a comfortable life for two years. After all, this incident did not have much impact on the capital for the time being, and Dai Xu's thing had already been taken back by him.

Even Dai Xu wanted to swallow this matter first.

No one knew how Yuan Jinyi had provoked Prince Jin and made him unable to bear it.

After listening for a while, Censor Lin finally understood what he should say.

He stood up.

"Your Majesty, the Yuan family was once a noble family. Furthermore, as I recall, those claiming to be descendants of the Yuan family were spread all over the country. These people often wrote letters and sent gifts to the Yuan family from all corners of the world, demonstrating their genuine affiliation and respect for the Yuan family."

Prince Jin just stood there and said nothing.

At this point, it seems that he doesn't need to speak anymore.

Censor Lin said, "The nobles have many followers. When necessary, they can mobilize hundreds of people to respond. That would be like a flood, unstoppable."

The emperor's expression changed.

He didn't care whether Dai Xu was bullied or Lu Zhaoling was molested.

However, he felt uncomfortable after hearing what Censor Lin and Chen Deshan said.

In the capital, when will it be the turn of those Yuan family brats to establish their authority?

Whoever has authority should be given it by himself, right?

No matter what, Dai Xu is still a royal relative, so who is Yuan Jinyi?

Besides, if the Yuan family had so many followers and such strong cohesion, wouldn't they all be able to gather together to oppose him?

Speaking of which, it was he who arranged the marriage for Lu Zhaoling.

Yuan Jinyi didn't take it seriously, so did he also take the imperial decree granting the marriage seriously? Did Yuan Jinyi think he could pry the Princess of Jin from his throne?

The emperor was so angry while thinking about it.

"Your Majesty, the Yuan family used to claim that they didn't value power, but what Yuan Jinyi has done in the past three years outside, and what he did right after arriving in Beijing, doesn't seem to indicate a disregard for power. Can the Yuan family still be considered role models for the world's upright people by teaching their children this way? This will only spread a bad trend, and other upright people will follow suit. Will they be the upright or the turbid in the future?"

Censor Lin erupted, "Your Majesty, this matter could be serious or minor. Shouldn't we send someone to investigate Yuan Jinyi's actions over the past three years? And investigate the Yuan family's followers?"

Lord Chen also said, "As for Yuan Jinyi and his men, if they are not punished at all, their tails will probably be up in the sky. They think the capital is a water that they can stir up."

The prince glanced at his uncle.

His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin looked a little aggrieved at the moment, and the Crown Prince knew that his uncle was about to speak.

Sure enough, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, who had just been calling the emperor in a rather unfamiliar manner, spoke.

"Brother Your Majesty, I'm about to get married, but people still think I can't protect the princess. I didn't even dare to go to her house when her carriage was stopped. My reputation, yours, and the reputation of our Zhou family have all been thrown to the ground and trampled on."

emperor:"......"

"Then why don't you go to their house?" he blurted out.

Could Zhou Shiyue have been so kind in the past?

Zhou Shiyue said aggrievedly, "Isn't it because I'm afraid that the emperor will scold me? I can only swallow my grievances."

"When have I ever scolded you?" The emperor's temple twitched.

"If I really go to your house and attack you, what will I do if the Yuan family and others come to court to impeach me?"

"If you take advantage of the situation, who would dare to impeach you..."

"Then I, your humble servant, will take the blame for this matter!" Zhou Shiyue immediately shouted joyfully, "Then I will follow your orders and knock on the door of the Yuan family after leaving the court! Brother Your Majesty, I will take my leave first!"

After saying that, Zhou Shiyue turned around and strode out of the hall with a heroic and confident look.

"Wait a moment......"

Hey!

The emperor stretched out his hand as if to grab Zhou Shiyue.

But Zhou Shiyue was very fast and had already left the hall.

The emperor was completely confused.

What happened? How did it become that he ordered Prince Jin to attack the Yuan family?

At this time, Lord Chen was still looking at him with sincere eyes, "The brotherly relationship between the Emperor and the Prince of Jin is something we, the ministers, really envy."

Lin Rong: “…”

Chen Deshan, you dog, aren't you afraid that the emperor will chop off your head?

Yuan family.

Yuan Jinyi hasn't come back yet.

The Yuan family was a little worried.

"Why has Jinyi been gone for three days? If he can't find the person, he should just go home. Does he have to find that person this time?"

Mrs. Yuan was still saying this.

The last time Yuan Jinyi went to the pleasure boat, he locked himself in the room for a long time after he came back. When he came out, he told them that he must marry Lu Zhaoling, which scared them all at the time.

Mrs. Yuan disagreed.

And this is too ridiculous!

However, all the men in the Yuan family are extremely stubborn.
