Chapter 200 Under the Storm
"Hahaha! Okay! What a female prisoner from the Ministry of Justice, what a 'bold speaking out'! What are you still doing? Drawing up an edict."
The emperor looked at Yun Xi approvingly and said: "'The long-standing cases should not block the current desire to recruit talents.' I announce that after March, the Encore will be opened in advance and students from Jiangnan will be allowed to take the exam."
The internal supervisor who dared to delay immediately ordered someone to draw up an order.
"Your Majesty is wise!" The cabinet ministers, six ministries and two departments all sang and shouted loudly. Even Han Yushi of the Metropolitan Procuratorate could not resist the love of talents, so they had no choice but to suppress the words of impeachment of the prince.
From then on, Lu Qingfan relaxed his shoulders and suppressed the regret in his eyes.
After all, Yun Xi said something against her will for the sake of justice. To have her children to blame for a long-standing injustice is as painful as heart-breaking pain.
At this moment, Long Yan was overjoyed, all the officials had been sent away by the Holy Emperor, the two major cases had come to an end, and the dirty affairs of His Highness the Crown Prince had also come to an end, and they were no longer allowed to be brought up by the Procuratorate.
Outside the Imperial Study Room, several ministers of the Ming Dynasty came forward and gave Yun Xi a half salute. They bluntly expressed their gratitude to Yun Xi for "speaking up for justice" for thousands of Jiangnan students. The six ministers also did not hesitate to appreciate and praise Yun Xi.
How could Yun Xi dare to offend her? Everyone would return the favor with full courtesy.
Upon seeing this, Han Ming, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, waved his sleeves and left.
Lu Shangshu left with a few of his fellow ministers proudly, not forgetting to give Lu Qingfan a "well done" look before leaving.
It wasn't until Yun Xi, Lu Qingfan and the prince were the only ones left outside the imperial study. The prince then stepped forward and said with a complicated expression: "Today, I owe you another great favor."
He Yuping's ability to raise his hands high and put them down gently was all because of what Yun Xi said later that moved his father.
Lu Qingfan was angry and felt sorry for Yun Xi who had suffered a serious crime. Why did he dislike the prince at this moment?
"It would be best for Your Highness to speak less from now on."
The prince's arrogant temper is really bad.
The several confrontations in front of the palace were all to smooth things over for the prince. Otherwise, how would the emperor name the cowards who presented evidence of guilt?
Yun Xi tugged at Lu Qingfan's sleeves, looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's livid and aggrieved handsome face, and said politely: "I don't dare to be so affectionate to Your Highness. The daughter of the people just did what she was supposed to do."
"Learn more!" Although His Highness the Crown Prince was offended by Lu Qingfan's cold words, he didn't care about it anymore and turned around and walked away.
Lu Qingfan looked at Yun Xi. He couldn't say much in the palace, so he only said softly: "Let's go."
"Yes." She carried the small baggage on her back, and the two of them quickly left the palace.
When getting off the carriage, Yun Xi's feet softened and she was held firmly in Lu Qingfan's arms.
"Are you okay?" He was shocked and said in a deep voice, "But you're injured?"
Yun Xi shook her head with a bitter look on her face: "My legs are weak."
Lu Qingfan simply picked up the little woman by the waist, causing her to let out a soft cry and quickly hooked her arm around Lu Qingfan's neck.
"Sir, no!"
"Why not?" Lu Qingfan's jaw tightened. At this moment, he just wanted Yun Xi to be firmly in his arms.
The two of them walked through the main gate of the Criminal Department into Ran Piao's mission room.
Inside the house, Master Ren and Ran Piao were still there, and the Leng brothers and Qing Guo also gathered around them in surprise.
"Miss, what's going on?" Qingguo's eyes turned red instantly, and he scared himself before Yun Xi could explain.
"It's okay, I'm scared." Yun Xi smiled and said, "Everyone has a beard and a tail, don't worry."
She didn't want to be so pretentious, but the turbulent emotions came over her at that time, but in just a few words, all her strength was drained.
Everyone looked at Lu Qingfan, his thin lips parted slightly: "Yun Xi suffered a big sin this time he entered the palace."
It was not a punishment, but a heart-burning pain that was even worse than the punishment.
I have been persistently seeking to clear my family for several years, but I personally deny my most firm belief in the face of the so-called "righteousness".
Lu Qingfan felt the pain of tearing flesh and blood.
"My lord is scaring people again."
Yun Xi explained everything in the palace in a few words. She didn't talk about the innocence of the Bai family, but she was shocked by the Holy Master's sudden question.
After hearing the whole story in the palace, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, fortunately, the case of the death of eight Jiangnan students has come to an end. He Yuping and Wang Shishu have received the verdict again, which has saved us a lot of trouble."
As soon as Ran Piao thought of this, he hurriedly prepared to sort out the documents.
Ren Danqing was a discerning man, so he didn't stay too long and lazily went to help Ran Piao.
Yun Xi sat on the small couch behind the screen to rest, while Lu Qingfan squatted beside Yun Xi. He raised his head, stared at Yun Xi intently with his handsome face, and held her cold little hand tightly with his big palm, as if he wanted to use this
A way to warm her suddenly cold blood.
The two looked at each other in silence, but their lingering eyes could not deceive anyone.
Qingguo blushed at the sticky affection between the two, and went to eat at the bookshelf in the back with Leng Chuan.
Leng Hai looked at the sky for a while, then at his master, and immediately retreated obediently after receiving the warning look.
After a long time, Yun Xi's hand was finally warmed by Lu Qingfan.
She smiled and said softly: "Don't worry, sir. The obsession of redressing injustice for many years will not be shaken by just a few words from the Holy One."
On the contrary, it was precisely because of the Holy Sage's unintentional suppression that Yun Xi became more determined to redress the injustice.
The fire of hope among the students in Jiangnan has been rekindled, and the dead souls of the Bai family who have been wronged for several years must also face justice.
She returned Lu Qingfan's rough palm and said softly: "Sir, you will always be here, right?"
In just over ten years, Jiangnan no longer knew his father's upright and upright official reputation, which made Yunxi suddenly feel a little emotional about the changes in the situation.
Lu Qingfan said seriously: "Yes."
The obsession in his heart that he has never expressed to others is also urging himself not to leave.
Yun Xi suddenly smiled and said softly: "The emperor's pressure is too strong, I am indeed a little scared."
Now that I have calmed down, all the fear has come to my mind.
Lu Qingfan laughed dumbly and joked: "I think you are very good at discerning opportunities in front of the emperor."
Even Han Ming, the censor of Zuodu, who was famous for his talk, was confirmed by the emperor before he had time to deny it.
All in all, today's results are always good.
The murder of Wang Tong's family became clear, and He Yuping and Wang Shishu were finally punished by criminal law.
Two major cases that shocked the capital have finally come to an end, and the crisis of His Highness the Crown Prince has also been indirectly resolved.
It was just because of Yun Xi’s generous words.
"Today in front of the emperor, the prince's behavior was not calm enough, and everything was explained vaguely. I am afraid that the emperor will secretly investigate the prince again." Lu Qingfan said in a deep voice: "Now the position of the crown prince has become a hot potato, whoever gets it
Bad luck."
The virtuous king who is the first to sit on the throne of the prince will have unpredictable fortunes and misfortunes in the future.
Yun Xi nodded: "The days are still long. I just hope that the secret 'Ming Master' will not waste innocent lives."
"At least what Wang Shishu said is true, they are indeed Yi Duo's people." Lu Qingfan thought of the confrontation in front of the emperor, and a sarcastic sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Yun Xi took out the list left by Yi Duo from her arms and crossed out the name "He Yuping" with a charcoal pen.
…
Early the next morning, the Ministry of Punishment received some strange-named rewards, and also gave Yun Xi a plaque with the title "Made by a Woman". The eunuch in charge of the internal supervision department who issued the decree said that this was the emperor's personal inscription.
Yun Xi had no choice but to thank her, but secretly thought that a plaque was not as valuable as real money.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent the money that the Emperor had not received in advance, saying that he asked Lu Qingfan and his party to send pension money to the people of Wangjia Village.
Without the fireworks field, many people have lost their jobs and have to pick up their hoes and go back to their old jobs.
"Farming is better than working in an unstable place with your head tied to your waistband." Ran Piao looked at the thousand taels of silver notes and sighed.
All the people want in their lives is stability.
Yun Xi suddenly had an idea, and she asked: "Since the ironworks and fireworks fields are gone, why not use the open space in the two villages to build a new venue?"
As soon as she said this, Lu Qingfan and others looked at her: "What are you doing?"
"Is the medicine shop okay?"
Yun Xi poked her chin gently and said, "Do you still remember the powdered medicine that He Yuping accidentally left at the scene of the crime? I think the terrain near those two villages is wide and there are canals to divert the fields, which is very suitable for planting those medicinal herbs."
That medicine is very precious, and it is quite troublesome to plant it, but the seedlings of this herb like full sunlight the most. By then, use the one hundred taels of silver to buy some seedlings, and Yun Xi will teach everyone how to plant them, which can be regarded as generating income for the two villages.
.
"It's better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. This is a good idea!" Ran Piao looked at Lu Qingfan excitedly and said, "What do you think, sir?"
