Chapter 66 The Punishment of Emperor Jianing

"Mr. Xiao is sure?" Si Yanzhong asked back, with doubts.

How could His Majesty be so furious that his princess was so furious that he sent a painting from the princess's mansion?

Xiao Zheng looked ahead with a burning gaze and stared at the palace gate: "I can't be sure of anything. I only know that the butler in the princess's mansion was holding a scroll in his hand just now."

Si Yanzhong clasped his fists: "Thank you sir."

After saying a word, Si Yanzhong turned around and left.

Xiao Zheng heard the footsteps coming from behind him and looked at Si Yanzhong's leaving figure slightly, with an indistinguishable dark light flashing in his eyes.

Xuan'an Palace

Emperor Jianing looked at the squirrels and kingfishers on the painting with a gloomy eyes, and a murderous intent floated in his eyes: "The Minister of Xuan Dali Temple, Minister of Justice, and Chief Censor of the Censor came to see me."

"Abide by the order." Eunuch Yi replied immediately.

After Eunuch Yi left, Emperor Jianing looked at the two kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up."

"Abide by the order." The two of them replied and stood up neatly.

After Shi Yanlin stood up, he whispered: "Your Majesty, the princess has another thing to tell Your Majesty."

"Go up and say," Emperor Jianing responded.

Shi Yanlin leaned forward, stood in front of the imperial case, and whispered: "The princess hopes that His Majesty can mobilize a group of troops to guard the neighboring Tongzhou, in case of emergency."

Emperor Jianing raised his eyes, his heart tightened, and his palms slightly held.

How many people are involved in this incident? Yinyin feels that it needs to mobilize the army to suppress it?

"I will make arrangements." Emperor Jianing.

He looked at Zongshen and Shi Yanlin and asked, "Do you know where the Yinyin is?"

Zong Shen stepped forward and replied: "After the princess fell into the water, Caomin handed over the token of the Dongfeng Escort Agency to the princess. The princess's people went to the Tongzhou Escort Agency to ask them to pass a letter to Caomin. After receiving the letter, Caomin sent the envelope to Nihua Xiaoyuan according to the princess' instructions."

"How could she arrive in Tongzhou in such a short time?" Emperor Jianing murmured to himself, frowned slightly.

Zong Shen looked at Emperor Jianing and asked carefully: "Your Majesty, how could the princess be in Tongzhou?"

Emperor Jianing glanced at Zong Shen, feeling helpless: "Tongzhou floods, Yinyin was afraid of an accident, so she had a day of trouble with me and insisted on going to Tongzhou. I didn't know why I responded to her in a confused manner."

Now, he didn't know how to be glad that Yinyin had arrived in Tongzhou successfully and told him the news of the food and supplies?

It was still Qi Yinyin who put himself in danger, but he knew nothing about her situation.

Zong Shen frowned and whispered: "No wonder she would raise a batch of clothes for my people to escort to Tongzhou. It turned out that she had planned to go to Tongzhou for a long time."

Emperor Jianing raised his eyes: "Zongshen, Shi Yanlin tells me everything you know."

Zong Shen and Shi Yanlin dared not hide it, and reported all the things they knew to His Majesty one by one.

Emperor Jianing heard the report from the two people, held his hands together and whispered: "Yinyin thought very well, and even thought of what should be prepared in the future."

Sound sound!

You have arranged your clothes, seedlings, and medicinal materials.

But do you know what situation you are in now?

Thinking of this, Emperor Jianing looked up at Zong Shen and said, "If you have nothing to do recently, go to Tongzhou!"

"Okay." Zong Shen answered without hesitation, without even frowning.

"You must bring her back safely for me." Emperor Jianing looked at Zong Shen with a burning look and asked.

Seeing the worry in Emperor Jianing's eyes, Zong Shen replied loudly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, Caomin will bring the princess back safely."

"Your Majesty, the adults you summoned have arrived." Eunuch Yi stood outside the door and whispered.

Emperor Jianing waved his hand and said, "If you step out of this door, you will have to forget everything today. If someone dares to reveal the sound of the wind and hurt the sound, I will ask for your two heads."

"Abide by the order." The two of them returned, and then stepped down respectfully.

After the two retreated, Li Wenzheng, Minister of Justice, Luo Ming, Minister of Dali Temple, and Tong Qingnian, Chief Censor, stepped into Xuan'an Hall one after another.

"Long live my emperor, long live my life." The three of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Get up!" Emperor Jianing.

Emperor Jianing glanced at the pastel squirrel cherry picture on the imperial desk. Eunuch Yi immediately understood and rolled up the scroll and placed it on the bookshelf next to it.

The three of them stood up and did not dare to speak out. They stood quietly waiting for Emperor Jianing to give orders.

Emperor Jianing picked up the memorial on the imperial desk and reviewed it, occasionally looking up at the three of them.

Xuan'an Palace was quiet. The three of them were waiting aside without moving and their legs were numb, but they did not dare to say a word.

Eunuch Yi looked at the three of them gritting their teeth and insisting, and his calves trembled slightly, and shook his head helplessly.

His Majesty's thoughts could not escape his eyes, but today he was confused and did not dare to speak at will.

Your Majesty wants to leave a few adults, so let’s leave it alone. What’s the reason for him!

At dusk, the three adults in Xuan'an Hall were waiting anxiously, and countless eyes were staring at them outside Xuan'an Hall.

Seeing that the time was almost time, Eunuch Yi stepped out of Xuan'an Palace and ordered the Shangshi Bureau to deliver dinner to Xuan'an Palace.

Emperor Jianing put down the last memorial in his hand, stood up and walked towards the mahogany round table where the meal was placed...

Emperor Jianing picked up the rice from the white jade bowl and looked at the three of them: "I know why I am telling you today?"

Emperor Jianing's sudden question was so scared that the three of them were frightened and knelt in unison: "Your Majesty, I... I don't know what Your Majesty has done to summon me!"

Emperor Jianing glanced at the three people kneeling on the ground, withdrew his gaze and stared at the rice in the bowl: "Take it in front of them."

"Affect the order." Eunuch Yi replied.

He took away the extra rice bowl on the table of Emperor Jianing, squatted in front of the three of them, and reminded: "Three sirs, your Majesty will let you take a look."

The three of them raised their eyes and saw soft, sweet and full white rice.

The three of them suddenly realized.

"Your Majesty, is there something wrong with the food and grass?" Liu Wenzheng asked cautiously.

What can be wrong with a white jade bowl? The only possibility is the rice in the bowl.

It was the problem with the imperial grain.

Liu Wenzheng's careful inquiry made the two adults around him realize completely.

Seeing that there was an answer, Eunuch Yi followed Emperor Jianing's instructions and ordered people to send three pairs of chopsticks to the three adults, and instructed: "Your Majesty asks the three adults to share the rice in the bowl and eat it."

The three of them raised their eyes and saw Eunuch Yi's sharp eyes, held the chopsticks in their hands and used up the rice in the bowl.

After dinner, Emperor Jianing came to the three of them and said in a deep voice: "This is your food for tomorrow's day."

"Your Majesty." The three of them raised their eyes and couldn't understand their intentions.

Emperor Jianing waved his hand, and the three little eunuchs immediately followed: "Your Majesty."

Emperor Jianing said coldly: "After these three priests step out of Xuan'an Hall today, you will follow them back to the house. You must keep an eye on them and not allow them to eat any food."

"Your Majesty, I don't know what crime you have committed!" The three of them immediately knelt on the ground.

They really didn't understand why His Majesty punished them if the imperial grain was lost?
