Here Dongxiang Hou rode out of the palace on horseback, and Chong Guogong just learned that the emperor canonized Su Jin as a princess, and gave Su Jin the fief of Tanzhou, the fief of Princess Duanhui.
In an instant, Duke Chong's face turned blue and purple.
Zhangzhou is not just a simple fiefdom, but more importantly, the iron mine!
Once Zhenbei Wang Shizi took over Zhangzhou and discovered the iron mine
It would be fine if only iron mines were found, but if there were traces of mining, Princess Duanhui would be suspected of cheating, which would be a felony.
To be labeled as treason again would be impossible to wash away even by jumping into the Yellow River.
After Chong Guogong got angry, he remembered a more important matter, and hurriedly said, "Send someone to Zhangzhou to deal with the aftermath!"
The dark guard Li Zhong looked worried.
Duke Chongguo sat on the chair, trembling a little.
From Princess Duanhui, they knew that she was bewitched by Prince Zhenbei's son and fell into the pit he dug for the assassination.
? Yesterday the emperor denounced Princess Duanhui as the princess, and it was Dongxiang Hou who helped intercede so that she was not demoted as a commoner.
?As a result, today, Dongxiang Hou asked for the concubine of the Prince of Zhenbei, and named Zhangzhou as the fief.
No matter how you look at it, it is all for Zhangzhou.
Chong Guogong was a little worried that Hou Dongxiang had doubts about Zhangzhou a long time ago, and he might even know something.
This guess made him panic.
If he had known yesterday that Hou Dongxiang had coveted Zhangzhou, he would have been able to save it.
Now the emperor has given Zhangzhou to the concubine of the Prince of Zhenbei as a fief, and it is too late to do anything.
Duke Chongguo's face was gloomy like the sky before a storm, making people feel depressed.
Zhenbei Wangfu, Chen Xiangxuan.
In the Palace of Political Affairs, the emperor asked Su Jin to be conferred the title of princess in front of all the officials, and Zhangzhou was awarded to Su Jin as a fiefdom.
This news was sent back to the palace immediately.
Su Jin was not surprised by what was expected.
If you know it in advance, you will be less surprised.
In terms of happiness, Su Jin is far inferior to Xing'er, Xing'er is overjoyed, "The emperor finally made the girl a princess."
"I will change my name to Miss Princess in the future."
"Don't¡¡."
Su Jin hurriedly stopped her, "Call me a girl from now on."
Compared with the princess, Su Jin thinks it is better to be a bandit with a backer.
There are many rules in ancient times, and there are even more rules for princesses.
She still likes an unfettered life, people call her princess to her, she is under a lot of pressure.
Outside the house, Xie Jingchen stepped up the steps.
A little servant ran over from behind and said, "My lord, the emperor has summoned you to the palace for questioning."
Xie Jingchen's head suddenly became dizzy.
Regardless of whether Dongxiang Hou or the emperor called him, Xie Jingchen felt that nothing good happened.
Especially now that the emperor has been promoted from an unofficial father-in-law to an official father-in-law.
Bite the bullet, Xie Jingchen turned around and entered the palace to meet the emperor.
Outside the window, Xing'er worriedly looked at the son-in-law who was walking away and said, "Miss, the emperor called the son-in-law into the palace, so he will be training him again, right?"
Myolie feels sorry for my uncle.
The emperor often reprimanded him for no reason.
Last time in the imperial study, Xing'er, who was taught by the emperor to the aunt, was flustered.
The uncle didn't take good care of the girl and let her be assassinated.
She didn't take good care of the girl either.
When the assassin killed the girl, she was afraid of death and hid.
Xing'er was afraid that the emperor would reprimand her uncle after reprimanding her.
"I also can't figure out why the emperor asked him to enter the palace," Su Jin said while gnawing on the fruit.
"But he should be used to being scolded, right?"
""
Xie Jingchen rode into the palace.
When he arrived at the imperial study, the emperor was not there.
The queen mother asked the emperor to go to Yongning Palace to speak.
The queen mother fell ill, she invited the emperor to go, and the emperor had to go.
However, the queen mother went to the emperor to ask the emperor to change Su Jin's fiefdom.
Zhangzhou belongs to her daughter, Princess Duanhui
No.
Now it's Princess Duanhui.
The queen mother asked the emperor to change Su Jin to a more affluent place.
Can the emperor agree?
If Dongxiang Hou hadn't told the emperor, he would have sent the Flying Tiger Army to Zhangzhou seven days agoZhou helped Princess Duanhui move, the emperor might really choose the richest state and county for Su Jin as a fief, although Su Jin is not short of money, even richer than the emperor's own father.
Thinking of Su Jin's business with Princess Beimo and sharing 30% of the profits with the emperor, the emperor didn't know what to say.
Dongxiang Hou didn't say that there was something in Zhangzhou that he coveted, but the queen mother insisted that he change the fiefdom for Su Jin.
The emperor was even more curious.
He looked at the Queen Mother and said, "Since Princess Duanhui has been demoted, the fief will naturally be taken back."
"It is a precedent that the fiefs that have not been taken back in the past dynasties cannot be awarded to other people."
The queen mother also knew that she didn't care about this matter.
But Zhangzhou must not fall into the hands of others.
The queen mother looked at the emperor and said, "Duanhui has lived in Zhangzhou for almost sixteen years, and she has only stayed in the palace for fifteen years."
"Even if the emperor wants to take back the fief, he doesn't need to reward Zhenbei Wang Shizi in such a hurry."
The emperor frowned, and said with displeasure, "When Princess Duanhui stayed in Zhangzhou, the queen mother asked her to move back to Beijing every year. Although she has been relegated to the princess, she can stay in Beijing to serve the queen mother for a long time. He also said that Princess Duanhui is reluctant to part with Zhangzhou."
Queen Mother, ""
These words hit the emperor's gun.
The emperor's tolerance for Princess Duanhui was already small.
How could he tolerate her being both horizontal and vertical?
What's more, the imperial decree is issued in front of all officials, how can it be changed at will?
Let the queen mother take good care of her wounds, and the emperor resigned.
When the emperor returned to the imperial study, Xie Jingchen had already waited for a quarter of an hour.
Seeing the emperor, Xie Jingchen hurriedly saluted, "I have seen the emperor."
"Father-in-law!" said the emperor.
""
I have never seen such a fight.
How can anyone call the emperor's father-in-law?
But Xie Jingchen had no choice but to obey the emperor's request.
After entering the imperial study, Eunuch Fu sent all the maids and eunuchs away.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair, looked at Xie Jingchen and said, "What is there in Zhangzhou that Dongxiang Hou covets?"
It turned out that this was the reason for asking him to enter the palace, Xie Jingchen said truthfully, "There is an iron mine in Zhangzhou."
The emperor's expression changed.
Eunuch Fu took a deep breath.
Qi Wangyuan had a different heart.
Princess Duanhui is also the younger sister of King Qi, and there is an iron mine in her fief, and King Qi will have a heart for treason even if she doesn't want to.
No wonder Hou Dongxiang sent someone to Zhangzhou early in the morning to help Princess Duanhui move.
No wonder Dongxiang Hou Bangduan Huichang Princess pleaded for mercy and left her as a princess.
Once the news about the iron mines in Zhangzhou came out, Princess Duanhui could not escape the guilt. If she had already been demoted to a commoner, the emperor would probably not hold her accountable.
But if she still has the status of a princess, she will be sentenced according to law, and the punishment she will receive will be far greater than now.
And King Qi
If King Qi really intends to seek rebellion, I'm afraid he won't be able to hide his evil intentions for long.
After knowing that there is an iron mine, the emperor can make a good guess about what happened next.
"It's a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone," said the emperor.
Xie Jingchen and Dongxiang Hou coincided with this strategy.
This is why Dongxiang Hou boasted that Xie Jingchen had the potential to be a bandit.
? As early as knowing that there were iron mines in Zhangzhou, Xie Jingchen knew that he would no longer have to be scolded by the emperor, nor would he need to blow his pillow.
Dongxiang Hou would not hesitate to do anything for the Flying Tiger Army.
Knowing that there are iron mines in Zhangzhou, he must have the idea of ??keeping them for himself.
The iron mine is sure to please Dongxiang Hou.
In order to occupy the iron mine in an upright manner, Hou Dongxiang had no choice but to let the emperor recognize Su Jin.
In this way, the emperor will get his wish.
Neither of the two father-in-laws was offended.
In order to ensure that the plan can be implemented without fail.
He inspected the princess mansion at night, stole the token, and stuffed it in the assassin's arms without a trace during the fight.
When Dali Temple Shaoqing and Yachai arrived, the assassins had not all fallen.
Who would doubt that Xie Jingchen stuffed the token on the assassin?
With the testimony of the Shaoqing and Yachai of Dali Temple, Princess Huichang, the culprit, cannot be shaken off.
This is also the reason why Dali Temple Shaoqing was asked to join the game, because witnesses are needed for this matter.
However, Xie Jingchen did not let Shaoqing Bai of Dali Temple enter the game. If he rescued Su Jin, the emperor would definitely reward him generously.
There is no doubt that this is a good strategy that has the best of both worlds.
But Xie Jingchen finally offended the emperor.
It was a mistake for him to report such a big matter to the Marquis of Dongxiang but not take the initiative to inform the emperor.
The emperor wanted to reward him with anger.
The father-in-law, he is the emperor.
Not to mention being more towards him, at least treat everyone equally, and you can't favor one person over another, right? !
Don't reward it, it's not justified.
Then¡ª¡ª
The emperor rewarded Xie Jingchen with the fake painting that the Marquis of Dongxiang disliked.
It doesn't count if he was rewarded. When he was leaving, Eunuch Fu chased him out and told him that the painting was fake.
Sweet dates are not sweet, but knives are real knives.
