If this is true, then what the Xu family does must have violated the taboos of Emperor Jiaping.

But the Xu family was a nobleman, and the British Duke led the troops to fight. He was cautious and knew the taboos. He had never violated the taboos of Emperor Jiaping. Logically speaking, it was only a matter of time that he had not been caught in the hands of so many years? What happened that made Emperor Jiaping suddenly hate them so deeply?

Emperor Jiaping seemed to have hesitated for a long time.

But he came to find the Empress Dowager because he was unsure of his mind. This hesitation lasted for a while, and he coldly told the Empress Dowager about Jin Qiong.

The Queen Mother of course had an impression of Jin Qiong.

If you can be a guardian eunuch, this eunuch must be very shameful in the palace.

When the Empress Dowager heard that the Xu family had colluded with Jin Qiong, she couldn't help but feel a little shocked: "What are you planning to make friends with close servants?"

Make friends with close servants, no matter which dynasty, it is something that the emperor is afraid of.

Emperor Jiaping was particularly serious.

He ascended the throne at a young age, and the ministers and the empress dowager around him were very strict, so he trusted the eunuchs very much.

But he gave his trust, but asked the eunuchs to be absolutely loyal to him.

He could allow the eunuchs to be corrupt and arrogant, but he would never allow them to collude with ministers and leak information.

Jin Qiong was also one of the eunuchs he trusted very much, but he colluded with the Xu family to make him believe that there was no conspiracy here, and he would not believe it no matter what.

He gritted his teeth and said this, and then said, "Jin Qiong committed suicide because he failed to assassinate Tingchuan and was afraid of his crime. I was very angry at that time. This dog slave actually dared to commit murder on Tingchuan because of his corruption. However, he did not commit suicide by himself, but was killed by someone sent by the Xu family!"

The empress dowager's pupils dilated for a moment, and then she asked in shock: "What?!"

But she actually knew it in her heart, but there was no evidence before. The Xu family was cautious in doing things and Jin Qiong was killed again. As for the evidence, they must have been wiped out. If they didn't find the evidence, they could not speak nonsense, otherwise they would only make things worse and worse.

It was a matter of what could be done for a long time before the result was suddenly revealed by Emperor Jiaping himself. This feeling was really unreal.

After asking this question, the empress dowager frowned and said, "You just said that Xu Zhaohai was colluding with the Lu family, why did you suddenly say that it was colluding with Jin Qiong to be unfavorable to Tingchuan? The Xu family...but the Duke's Mansion!"

She said, observing Emperor Jiaping's expression, coughed and said, "If you are convicted without evidence, you cannot convince everyone."

Emperor Jiaping could not bear it anymore, and the anger he had accumulated for many days finally vented: "Xu Zhaohai, this mess! As early as last year, the rebellion of the Marquis of Pingnan's Mansion, Xu Zhaohai was triggered by Xu Zhaohai---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Even these are messed up?

The Empress Dowager was really unable to figure out what happened at this moment, so she could only express a shocked expression, and then advised Emperor Jiaping to calm down: "Does the emperor have evidence?"

"Jin Qiong has left a secret letter!" Emperor Jiaping's face was cold and he clenched his fists and stood up: "The secret letter left by Jin Qiong about the dealings with the Duke of England not only said that the Lu family had been giving gifts and bribing to the ministers in the court by King Xingping, but also said that the Xu family let Lu Guangping go. Lu Guangping fled through Jinling, and it was Jin Qiong's help. Not only that, the Xu family also ordered Jin Qiong to search for vicious bandits from all over the country and let them assassinate Tingchuan... The Xu family was so skillful! They just treated me as a fool! I think they were afraid they were all the same!"

He was so angry that he even said such words, which showed that he really hated the Xu family to the core.

No wonder the marriage has to be removed no matter what.

The empress dowager glanced at Emperor Jiaping and said lightly: "Since Jin Qiong left a secret letter to correct me, it was such a huge thing, so naturally we should check it out carefully. But in theory, this matter is unrelated to everyone in the Xu family. Why did the emperor only lock up Xu Zhaohai? Or did he use the name of colluding with the Lu family?"

Emperor Jiaping stood up and paced in the hall with some anxiety: "The old fox, Jin Qiong's letter cannot be used as evidence of conviction. He can give up all three, four, five, and he made great achievements in military achievements. If I arrested him without evidence, it will inevitably shake the morale of the army. Now the Oirat side is eyeing me again, and I cannot do such a thing."

The Empress Dowager nodded: "The emperor is very considerate. If Xu Zhaohai can reveal something here, he can open a gap."

"He is not stupid, he must know that if he admits it, the British Duke is unlucky, and he will not say it. I want to force the British Duke to move." Emperor Jiaping showed a fierce expression: "This old fox, if he doesn't force him to a desperate situation, he will not reveal the fox's tail. I locked up Xu Zhaohai and went to the Xu family to catch one more person after a while. If you don't believe that the British Duke's old fox is calm, then as long as he does something, I will naturally not let him go!"

It turned out to be with this idea.

The Empress Dowager looked at Emperor Jiaping with some emotion.

He has always regarded him as the child who had just ascended the throne back then, but over the years, even the simplest child has been immersed in power and tricks.

He is so unpredictable now.

The Empress Dowager calmed down and asked Emperor Jiaping: "What do you mean is to let the Sansi judge Xu Zhaohai and drag it slowly to the Xu family and unable to help but move it?"

Emperor Jiaping nodded.

His personality has always been like this. If anyone dares to betray him, he will definitely make life worse than death.

This is what the Xu family is now.

The Queen Mother nodded, feeling that it seemed too easy to cause this incident.

Thinking of Zhu Yuan and Chu Tingchuan, who had not made any noise, my heart moved.

Perhaps Zhu Yuan’s work was done in this matter?

In the end, she didn't say anything and just asked Emperor Jiaping: "What about Jing'an? She is very ill. I heard that she has been out of water and rice these two days. I guess it was because the marriage was gone."

Emperor Jiaping's eyes flashed through unbearableness.

Then he said in a deep voice, "How can I tell her about this now? She just thought it through herself. She is a princess. Could it be that she is still afraid that she will not be able to get married? If this marriage is gone, I will naturally find a better one for her."

But if you really marry the Xu family, your status will be really embarrassing.

This is still for Jing'an to consider it, but the empress dowager did not intend to give Jing'an some advice.

That girl is too arrogant and selfish, and she should be treated with some sorrow and lessons so that she can know how to be a normal princess in the future.

If not, then it will be better if the disease is gone this time, so as to save more trouble in the future.
