The next day.

One imperial edict after another came out from the palace, shaking all the forces in Yudu.

The first to bear the brunt were the powerful Prime Minister Su and the Su family.

The emperor has conveyed his will that the Qiu family is immoral and has violated the seven grounds for divorce. They intended to confuse the royal bloodline. I grant you white silk to appease your crime. The emperor is merciful and has sentenced the Qiu family to exile to Chizhou in the northwest.

The emperor conveyed the will of the emperor. Su Youan disrespected the royal dignity, spoke rudely, and confused the royal bloodline. The emperor, considering that his father and brother had made contributions to the country and that Su Youan himself was still young, exiled him to Cangzhou and never allowed him to return to Yuzhou or enter the official career.

The emperor has conveyed his will. Prime Minister Su Baiqian was not careful in educating his son and has lost his moral character. The prime minister of a country is a loyal minister. If the son loses his moral character, it is the fault of the father. However, Your Majesty, remembering his loyalty to the emperor and his contributions to the country, has ordered the prime minister to temporarily resign from his post as the leader of the six ministries, and to reflect on his mistakes and examine his words and deeds in seclusion in the palace.

Of course, apart from these, the next unlucky person would be Prince De Jiang Che.

The Holy Emperor has conveyed His Majesty's will and has observed that Prince De has behaved erratically, has failed to cultivate his virtues, and has been negligent in government affairs, failing to set a good example for the royal family. The Holy Emperor is deeply concerned and angry, and has ordered him to resign from the post of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice.

Due to the Linzhou Incident, the bandits in southern Xinjiang were advancing recklessly. The Emperor, mindful that Prince De was a first-time offender, granted him Linzhou as his fiefdom and ordered him to rush there that very day to defend Linzhou and quell the rebellion.

As for Prince Ping, Emperor Xuanhe also issued an oral order, asking him to reflect on his mistakes in seclusion for three months. He was not even able to manage the inner chambers well, which made Emperor Xuanhe even more displeased, and felt that he was not up to the task.

When the news spread, Mu Jiaojiao was just returning from a disguised inspection of the newly opened shops and restaurants of her subordinates. This really shocked her.

After asking the housekeeper Li about the whereabouts of her husband and two children, Mu Jiaojiao changed her clothes and went straight to the study.

"Have you found out why the punishment for my second brother is so severe this time?"

After instructing his eldest son on how to write at the desk, Jiang Jin took a look at his youngest son's scribbles, then flipped through the messages recording unusual movements from all sides, and asked He Yunyu if he was sitting or standing properly.

"Can you ask Li Xingchuan to do this kind of information-gathering work from now on? It's beneath my reputation as a killer leader to do such things!"

He Yunyu first complained about the unreasonableness of Jiang Jin's arrangement, and expressed his indignation at his use of a butcher knife to kill a chicken, and then he told him in detail the reasons behind the matter that he knew.

"Haha, it's all because of your good second brother, Prince De, who was stupid. Su Youan's outrageous remarks and his irresponsible discussion of the ownership of the throne have already made your father unhappy."

"But after entering the Imperial Study, he even righteously pleaded for Su Baiqian and the Su family. Doesn't this prove that he was secretly colluding with Su Baiqian and plotting to usurp your father's throne?"

When Mu Jiaojiao walked into the study, she heard a strange man in red clothes saying these outrageous words in a defiant manner, so she said something casually.

"In the final analysis, it's just that Emperor Xuanhe couldn't stand his son coveting his power."

When Jiang Jin heard his wife's voice, his previous nonchalant expression disappeared and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"My wife, I'm back!"

"Mother~"

"Yeah, I heard Uncle Li say you were in the study, so I came straight over!"

Mu Jiaojiao looked at her two children, one big and two small, sitting obediently at the table. They greeted her obediently when they saw her. She had a relaxed and lazy smile on her face and answered her husband.

"Oh, this must be the one dear to our master."

"He Huaigui greets the mistress!"

At this moment, He Yunyu, who had been sitting lazily in red, suddenly became serious, teased Jiang Jin, and then saluted Mu Jiaojiao.

He just spoke like a subordinate, but his tone was not very polite, but he was not negligent either. It was obvious that he had a very good relationship with Jiang Jin.

"My lady, this is Yunyu whom I mentioned to you earlier. Huaigui is his courtesy name."

Jiang Jin was very open about being teased, because his wife was the apple of his eye.

He then explained to Mu Jiaojiao the identity of his good friend and subordinate, fearing that his wife would not recognize him.

"Mr. He, thank you for your courtesy. Jiaojiao has heard of your name for a long time. Seeing you today, I can see that you are indeed very handsome."

After hearing what Jiang Jin said, Mu Jiaojiao knew that this was the owner of the Dark Tower, the person in charge of training An San and others.

But no one expected that He Yunyu would be so charming and beautiful, and it was hard to tell whether he was a man or a woman. Mu Jiaojiao felt that if he were to live in modern times, his looks would surely stun all the beauties in the entertainment industry.

Tsk!

It turns out that the ancient Feng Shui is good for health!

My husband Jiang Jin is already very handsome, one in a million, and this He Yunyu can compete with my husband.

It's just that the two have very different styles and personalities. He Yunyu is the type of romantic, passionate, and unruly, while her husband Jiang Jin is the type of gentle, elegant, peaceful, and scheming.

"Hahaha... The mistress really has a unique vision and is a wonderful person with a lot of fun. No wonder Huaizhi is so bewitched by her."

He Yunyu looked at Mu Jiaojiao and laughed so hard that she shook with laughter. Yes, she shook with laughter, mainly because this person was too ostentatious, and the red dress made him look even more unrestrained.

After the three of them exchanged greetings and continued with their previous conversation, Mu Jiaojiao realized that the lineage of Prince De had suffered a great loss this time.

Now, King De was granted the land of Linzhou. Although Linzhou is vast, it is sparsely populated. It is shrouded in poisonous fog all year round and is harassed by southern Xinjiang. It is really comparable to the remote Cangzhou.

This place is even less suitable for the people to live in than Cangzhou. King De can be said to have been exiled and directly driven out of the stage of imperial power struggle.

Prime Minister Su was also in danger. If he had not said in time in the Imperial Study that he was old and wanted to resign and return home to retire, the consequences might have been even more serious.

It so happened that Emperor Xuanhe was a man who loved face and was afraid that history books would record him as being harsh on his subjects and narrow-minded. That was why he simply took away Su Baiqian's power and gave him the reputation of a hollow prime minister, temporarily reflecting on himself in the palace.

Su Baiqian was also helpless. The result was not so bad originally. When he met his nephew at Shuntian Gate before, he hinted that Prince De Jiang Che should not say anything no matter what happened.

Jiang Che nodded, looking indifferent.

Who would have thought that in the imperial study, he had already aroused the suspicion of Emperor Xuan He, and he fearlessly pleaded for his Su family. Although this was a good intention for the Su family, it also touched Emperor Xuan He's reverse scale.

It also made Xuan and Di so angry that they vomited blood, leading to the irreversible consequences today.

The Su family may have a difficult road ahead!

After all, the family of the former Crown Prince Jiang Heng and the former Prime Minister Xu Shangyi are a clear example of a lesson.

Inside Prince De’s Palace.

The people represented by Feng Ziyi, who had been eagerly waiting for the news, were also shocked when they received the news.

They never thought that things would come to this point. It is true that Emperor Xuanhe is very suspicious and loves to be paranoid about everything.

However, if Prince De had cried and complained as they had said before, saying that he knew nothing about the matter and not acted too close to the Prime Minister's Mansion, even if Prince De was punished, he would not have been directly exiled.

Who would have thought that Prince De would make the emperor so angry that he vomited blood. Instead of leading things to the worst, he would make things even worse and commit suicide. He is simply a hopeless person!
