Chapter 915: He actually became smart (monthly ticket)
After Brother Ninth finished handling the official business to be handled today, the doctor from the Shenxing Division arrived.
He was holding a thick document in his hand, his face was pale, and there was cold sweat on his forehead.
"Master Jiu..."
When he saw Brother Jiu, his hand holding the document was trembling.
Brother Jiu looked him over and said, "What's the big deal? You're so scared that you're so virtuous?"
The doctor had a wry smile on his face and said: "Yesterday, my servant led people to arrest the Li family and everyone in the Li family. They also ordered people to search the Li family. They planned to search according to the book, but the relevant property was gone..."
Brother Jiu heard something was wrong and said, "Someone is hooking the Li family into gambling?"
The Li family also had a middle-ranking title. The Li family's Arma was ill and had to take care of her old age, so the title was passed on to the eldest son of Li. This was a benefit.
The private property under Li's name was previously managed by the Li family.
Rewards from the palace came five times a year, and Li asked her nephew Dening to bring them back. Most of them were gold and silverware and ornaments from Li's house.
The things in the inner treasury were mainly Hongxi's. A young brother who did not enter the study room kept mostly gold collars, darts and other items in his private treasury, as well as a few dolls made in the inner treasury. Surprisingly, they were not left behind.
The items in Li's house are from the palace register, and there are two other items that are antiques from previous dynasties.
Are these things gone?
Dening is Akedun's Haha Zhuzi. Last year, he had a fight in the upper study room and was fined forty boards, and Haha Zhuzi was expelled.
The doctor said: "According to the confession of Talba, the second son of the Li family, all the property sent from the palace was sent to the Lingpu family by the Li family..."
Brother Jiu thought the name sounded familiar and said in surprise: "That... the prince's nanny?"
When he first took over the Ministry of Internal Affairs, one of the three places that Concubine Yi told him to avoid was the Internal Affairs Office, which was managed by the Prince's nanny Ling Pu.
A dog relies on the strength of a human being, which is what Ling Pu is talking about.
Just because it is backed by Yuqing Palace, it is actually able to be on an equal footing with several other relatives.
Later, when he learned that the Hesheli family had arrangements in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he also paid attention to Ling Pu.
With the Hesheli family's urine, even if the prince's wet nurse was not from the Hesheli family before, she would only be from the Hesheli family in the future.
Otherwise, how could they be happy to watch the prince value the Lingpu couple.
The status of the Lingpu couple in the Yuqing Palace is no different from the status of the Yaqibu couple in the Eighth Prince's Mansion. In both cases, the male is in charge of the outside and the female is in charge of the internal affairs of the Yuqing Palace.
Until the prince's wedding...
However, in the first month of last year, the couple were executed for embezzling property given by Mo Yuqing Palace.
The doctor nodded and didn't dare to say the rest.
Brother Jiu signaled He Yuzhu to bring up the documents and quickly looked through them, starting directly from Talba's confession.
"On October 14, thirty-seven years, I sent Lingpu twenty taels of gold, two hundred taels of silver, and two decorations..."
"Thirty-seven years, October 25th, I will give Lingpu fifty taels of gold, five hundred taels of silver, and four decorations..."
"On the second day of November in the thirty-seventh year, I will give Lingpu eighty taels of gold, eight hundred taels of silver, and eight kinds of decorations..."
"On November 15th of the thirty-seventh year, I will give Lingpu eighty taels of gold, eight hundred taels of silver, and eight kinds of decorations..."
Brother Jiu looked at it and understood why the doctor was afraid.
When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something.
Such a heavy gift was given four times in a month, adding up to two hundred and thirty taels of gold, two thousand three hundred taels of silver, and twenty-two ornaments.
Just talking about gold and silver is a lot of money.
Including those antique ornaments, it is a small amount of ten thousand taels of silver.
Brother Jiu continued to look through it, but the confession at the bottom was gone.
He even confessed to the crime of embezzling the property of the East Palace, but he couldn't explain the reason for asking Ling Pu?
That is a bigger crime than embezzling the property of the East Palace...
What news was there in Yuqing Palace in November last year?
I really didn’t notice it. At that time, everyone came back with the family, and then the brothers moved, Dafu passed away, and the funeral lasted until the twelfth lunar month. He was very busy...
Brother Jiu glanced at He Yuzhu and was about to tell him to go out and inquire, but then he was stunned.
The Holy Spirit returns to Luan...
Brothers move...
Dafu passed away...
The Crown Princess didn’t even show up!
At that time, when I was complaining about illness, it was my nanny who came forward.
Before, Brother Ninth thought he was ill and didn't pay much attention to it, but the rumors that Xing He just heard a few days ago said that the Crown Princess had suffered a miscarriage the year before and was suffering from physical injuries and had a difficult child.
Brother Jiu took a breath of cold air in his heart, but didn't show it on his face. He just scolded: "That's how you asked me. Why don't I turn around and hand your headless thing to the emperor, and you go to the emperor to answer it?"
The doctor hurriedly said: "I dare not..."
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "Lingpu and his wife have been together for more than a year, and they are really clever at blaming it on the dead. Why didn't he say that he would send it to Suo'etu's family?"
Seeing that the doctor's forehead was sweating more and more, Brother Jiu also looked a little solemn.
If the Crown Princess was not involved, his solution would be very simple, just continue to ask.
Knowing that the Li family was sneaky, they naturally got to the bottom of it.
But when the Crown Princess was involved, Brother Jiu relented.
No matter how annoying the prince was, the princess was always kind to the couple.
Even when I faced off against the Crown Prince last year, it was the Crown Princess who stepped down.
Otherwise, if there is a stalemate, given the imperial father's always partial virtue, he will be the one who gets scolded in the end.
If this matter is investigated, it will be a slap in the face of the East Palace, and it will also hurt the dignity of the Crown Princess.
Brother Jiu looked at the doctor and said: "Since the Crown Princess has asked you to investigate Li's theft of property from the Jie Fang Palace, then you should go to Yuqing Palace to see the Crown Princess. How to investigate and what step you have found? Please invite the Crown Prince."
The concubine makes the decision..."
When the doctor heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, said goodbye, and went to Yuqing Palace.
Only Brother Jiu and He Yuzhu were left in the room.
Brother Jiu also figured out the cause and effect.
No wonder the emperor's father, when he was cleaning up Suo'etu last year, not only Lingpu and his wife were left behind, but the whole family was executed.
At that time, it was thought that the couple was executed because they were cheating on each other and had too close contacts with Soetu.
I didn't expect that there would be some secrecy involved.
Brother Jiu frowned, feeling a little contempt for the prince.
This is the prince who was taught by the emperor's father himself, and he can't even cultivate himself and manage his family well.
But the Lingpu couple were too courageous.
"Eighteen thousand silver bought the life of the legitimate grandson of the emperor?"
Even though the ninth elder brother did not like the prince, he could not rejoice in the misfortune. He said to He Yuzhu: "How dare they be so bold? This emperor's grandson is too worthless..."
He Yuzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "Maybe it's not 18,000?"
Brother Ninth looked at him and said: "Is there anyone else who paid money? Whose family? The Hesheli family? But their family is a descendant, so they are exempt from selection?"
He felt that this logic did not make sense.
He Yuzhu glanced in the direction of Qianqing Palace and whispered: "Perhaps the picture is not what is in front of me, but there is an example. A queen and a concubine were born in Cheng'en Palace..."
When the crown prince takes the throne, the crown princess, the concubine, is the worthy candidate for the queen.
If there is a legitimate son, then there is no one else to worry about.
If there is no child, when the daughter of the descendant enters the palace, she will be the cousin of the prince. She has a noble status and will give birth to an elder brother who cannot be compared with other concubine elder brothers.
Brother Jiu looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Okay, little Hezi, you are actually smart!"
He Yuzhu patted his mouth gently and said: "This slave talks too much..."
He was worried that Fujin had been exhausted recently and could not care about his father's side, and then his father would mix things up and fall into the trap, so he made his words clearer.
Brother Jiu glanced at him angrily and said, "Don't let this happen. Are you the one who can't hear what you say?"
He Yuzhu said with a sneer: "I just think that the family scandal should not be made public. The emperor is afraid that he will not be happy to make this matter public and let people outside see the palace joke."
Brother Jiu hummed softly: "You still don't understand this? But you can't just shrink back. It depends on the princess's intentions. After all, she is the master of suffering..."
Speaking of this, he said with a heart: "Fortunately, neither I nor Fujin arranged for the captives to be around. If anyone dares to cause trouble with Fujin, it will cost my life..."
*
Yuqing Palace, main courtyard.
The Crown Princess looked at the confessions of the Li family, her expression unchanged, but her hand holding the book could not help but tighten.
Even though I had guessed this before, the evidence was still different.
The Crown Princess looked in the direction of Qianqing Palace.
The emperor also knew about this.
But after one and a half years, the emperor still valued her as his daughter-in-law as much as ever, and did not find any reason to take back her palace power. On the contrary, he completely disliked Li's mother and son.
But the prince still wanted to go to Hanhu, so at first he just stopped Li's double order.
If something else hadn't happened later and Li's position had been demoted, then stopping the extra subsidies would be considered a punishment.
How ridiculous!
As much as the princess was grateful to the emperor, she hated the prince.
The Crown Princess raised her head, looked at the doctor, and said, "Did Master Jiu send you here?"
The doctor said: "Yes, Master Jiu said, please make the decision on how to check and which step to check..."
The Crown Princess let out a breath, closed the book, and said: "The Crown Prince ordered this investigation. You can go directly to the front and ask the Crown Prince for instructions..."
The doctor bent even further, responded respectfully, and looked at the booklet in the hands of the princess.
The Crown Princess had no intention of returning it to him.
The doctor looked at the princess and saw that the princess's face was cold.
He didn't dare to look anymore, quickly turned his eyes away, and retreated honestly.
Grandma was nearby and listened with only a vague understanding, but at that time, the candidate for bribery...
Her eyes were red, and she looked at the Crown Princess, her lips trembling and unable to speak.
There were no tears in the princess's eyes, she only held the prayer beads in her hand.
There is cause and effect in this world. People can deceive their hearts, but they cannot deceive heaven.
Li's retribution has arrived...
*
The front hall of Yuqing Palace.
After hearing the doctor's report, the prince's face became as dark as water.
"Did the Crown Princess keep the Li family's confession?"
He asked sharply: "Who else has seen it?"
Nalang's heart was twitching, and he hesitated.
Who doesn’t know what happened to He Yi?
At that time, maggots were spreading between Master Jiu and the Crown Prince. The emperor did not tolerate it and found an excuse to have an attack.
If the Crown Prince and Master Jiu were to confront each other because of him, the Emperor would kill him.
He hurriedly said: "No one has seen it. I just took the full confession in the morning and went to the yamen of the main hall. But Master Jiu was busy checking the population of the breeding people and couldn't care about anything else. He said it was the prince who ordered the eucalyptus. Listen,
