Becoming a widow for the sake of good fortune? The short-lived prince lived a hundred years

Yan Xiaozhen stood up tremblingly: "I, I'll go change..."

"What are you changing for? The longer you delay, the more dangerous it is. How could you be so stupid? Even I can think of it, but you can't?"

Yan Xiaozhen gritted his teeth, immediately ordered his men to prepare their horses, and hurried out of the mansion.

He believed that the murder to silence the witness was true. He had a knife hanging over his head, which could fall at any time. He would only be safe in prison!

Revenge for his son was secondary; saving his own life was paramount. That wild girl was right; he would be murdered to silence him. His only chance of survival was to report him.

After leaving Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, Chu Jinxun looked at Yan Xining with a furrowed brow and sad eyes, and gently held her hand and comforted her softly.

Yan Xining looked back at him: "I'm fine!"

After being in this world for so long, she gradually came to regard herself as Yan Xining of this world.

She felt sorry for Luo Yiyun, not because of family ties, but because they were both women! She had taken over Yan Xining's body and had promised to avenge her.

She asked, "How's our plan going?"

Chu Jinxun's voice was steady: "Over the years, Father has been sending spies to various places. Now, those spies are very busy!"

Yan Xining, who heard the hidden meaning in his words, raised an eyebrow: "Did you ask them to find Da Lei?"

"Thunder?" Chu Jinxun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Really? If there was thunder in the sky, wouldn't it be the same as that? Those spies originally had no purpose, they were just monitoring everywhere. What if they accidentally discovered a clue, and that clue could be the beginning of something huge? Would they pursue it?"

"That's natural!"

"Well, those spies are carefully trained. As long as they catch a glimpse of even the slightest clue, they won't let go. So all we have to do is point them in a direction and let them stumble upon those clues. We don't need to do anything else. On the contrary, we have to erase the traces of our own people pointing the way!"

Yan Xining understood as soon as she heard it.

As she moved, Chu Jinxun also moved.

She was avenging her mother, and so was Chu Jinxun!

It’s just that the people they want to shake are different, but they all require careful planning, step by step, and meticulous planning.

Because their opponents are also very strong!

The two smiled at each other. Some things did not need to be said out loud, as they already had a tacit understanding.

When the news that Weiyuan Hou favored his concubine, killed his wife, embezzled his wife's dowry and wiped out the family spread throughout the streets and alleys, a bigger incident happened in the capital.

Weiyuan Hou Yan Xiaozhen personally brought evidence to expose all the darkness and filthiness of the Military Arsenal back then. He confessed his own crimes and presented evidence to expose a person who interfered with the matter.

When the Jingzhao Yin received the case, he saw the names involved, the events involved, and the huge amount of silver. He did not dare to open the trial and immediately went to the palace to present the case to Emperor Yongxi.

At the same time, Emperor Yongxi's secret agent in Qingzhou accidentally discovered a shocking secret: someone was raising private soldiers in the mountains of Qingzhou.

After staking out for a long time, the spy found out that the person secretly in contact with the private army was from the Duke Dingguo's Mansion in the capital.

Duke Dingguo is the Queen's father. He had long ago taken sides and shared the same aspirations with the Sixth Prince! How could he not know who was raising the private army?

Emperor Yongxi's expression was extremely ugly.

He is only forty years old, and his sons all wish he were dead?

Raising private soldiers? Rebellion?

Since it exists in one place, is it also available in other places?

Thus, the spies around him spread out like a net throughout Nanxia.

This time, the investigation went very smoothly. Following the clues one by one, they quickly uncovered the truth.

Qingzhou, Jizhou, Yunzhou, and even Linzhou near the capital all have private armies.

Emperor Yongxi slammed the box containing the secret letter to the ground. "Four private armies, twenty thousand strong, twenty thousand strong, well-equipped. What does he want to do? Ah, what does he want to do?"

Who dares to answer this?

Eunuch Yushu retreated to the back, and then retreated to the back again, making himself transparent.

Emperor Yongxi lost his temper, and the whole hall suddenly became so oppressive that people felt like they were suffocating.

He stood there, calling out sinisterly, "Someone come!"

A shadow quietly appeared in the dark: "Go and check for me..."

On the second day after Emperor Yongxi was furious after receiving the secret report, Jingzhao Yin presented the self-prosecution and evidence of Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. One of the evidences was that when Weiyuan Marquis Yan Xiaozhen was the director of the Military Equipment Bureau, one or two batches of brand new and most sophisticated military equipment were shipped out every year and disappeared!

The quantity of each batch ranges from 10,000 to 20,000.

Emperor Yongxi laughed in anger. They disappeared and were all sent to his private soldiers.

The Nanxia army guarded the border with inferior weapons. On the battlefield, when the weapons were damaged, not sharp enough, or the equipment broke, they had to pay with human lives.

The weapons that were exchanged and those that were resold were originally supposed to be sent to the frontiers and battlefields, but instead became weapons for private soldiers to train.

As for the rations and grass, the moldy and inferior ones were all sent to the border, while the fine ones were continuously supplied to the private soldiers.

Emperor Yongxi immediately summoned Ling Yan and Commander Jiang.

There may be people like his good sons in every government office, but now there are only a handful of them whom he completely trusts!

As Weiyuan Hou Yan Xiaozhen walked into the Jingzhao Yin Yamen, all parties were watching, but the court was very calm.

Emperor Yongxi reprimanded the Sixth Prince and ordered him to close the Zuimengyoufang, dismiss the people inside, and provide for their subsequent resettlement and compensation. He was also fined six months' salary and confined to his home for three months as punishment.

Several people who were seriously involved in the Armament Bureau incident were also raided and their homes were confiscated and beheaded.

Yan Xiaozhen was meritorious for his initial report, but he was also guilty of an unforgivable crime and was detained first.

There is no more content.

This was Emperor Yongxi's usual style, and similar cases in the past were mostly handled in this way.

Although there were some loyal and brave old ministers who felt sorry for the soldiers who lost their lives in vain because of the arms case, what else could they do?

After all, a group of people were beheaded, a group of people had their properties confiscated, and a group of people were exiled, so it can be considered an explanation.

As for digging deeper? How deep should we dig?

Do we have to dig up the prince?

Not only did they fail to dig out the prince, but they also picked out the Duke Dingguo who had benefited from it perfectly and easily.

Tian Jiaying was thrown into jail in the evening of the day Yan Xiaozhen went to report the crime.

After all, there were more than one witnesses to Yan Xiaozhen’s confession at the funeral hall.

However, the Jingzhao Yin now has neither the time nor the energy to deal with this small case.

It's an old case from more than ten years ago, and the person involved has already been thrown into jail. It doesn't matter whether the trial is sooner or later.

Chu Jinxun and Yan Xining were also relieved by Emperor Yongxi's downplaying of court affairs.

They don't even pay attention to subsequent developments.

Wu Yuxing was a little anxious. He looked at the relaxed Chu Jinxun playing chess. "Master, we've been planning for so long, mobilizing so many people, and delivering evidence to those people one by one. Now it's all thunder and no action? Haven't we wasted our efforts?"

Chu Jinxun smiled, placed a piece, and looked up at Yan Xining: "What do you think, An Ning?"

Yan Xining also smiled: "Don't worry, there will be results soon. There is a saying that the closer the day is, the darker it gets!"
