A moment later, Jiang Shuyue was fully dressed and ran towards Shumoxuan with her hair that she had not had time to wring out.

"Don't worry, young lady, the emperor said that the young master has fallen asleep."

Qiu Ju has gained experience in raising children for so many years. Since she can sleep peacefully, it must be okay.

Jiang Shuyue stopped suddenly, "The Emperor is still in the palace?"

"No, the emperor has returned to the palace."

Jiang Shuyue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking forward, pretending to be calm and said: "It's okay, he didn't delay me to take a look after he fell asleep."

She knew that the child was fine, but she felt sad that the child had suffered an unreasonable disaster, and wanted to go and take a look to feel at ease.

"Sister, I'm awake now."

As soon as he walked to the corridor, he saw Sunan walking towards him.

The soft light in the corridor reflected on Su Nan's handsome face. The gloom and worries were swept away, and then a sense of guilt appeared.

"Sister, I will never lose my Sui Sui again."

Jiang Shuyue walked over and the two of them walked side by side. She raised her hand and patted Sunan on the shoulder: "Sister, I said that someone else had planned this night for a long time. It is not your fault."

When I arrived at Shumoxuan, I saw Su Jin coaxing Suisui to drink the soothing soup.

"Be good, just take a few sips, okay? After that, you can sleep peacefully at night, and you won't see bad people in your dreams." Su Jin held the bowl in one hand and hugged Suisui with the other, coaxing him softly.

Suisui shook his head, "No, uncle, believe me. I'm not afraid of bad people. My itching powder is not vegetarian. I'll ask Aunt Qiu Ju to make me some more medicine packs tomorrow."

Seeing her mother, Suisui looked over and asked for help, "Mother, tell my uncle, I'm really not scared. I was only scared when I saw my mother was about to fall into the water."

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to drink it, don't drink it. We are the bravest every year." Jiang Shuyue went up and took the calming soup and put it aside.

He lowered his head and kissed his son on the forehead, then told the story of the thrilling scene on the boat.

Su Nan looked at Sui Sui fondly, "We are so resourceful at Sui Sui. We can stay calm and think of countermeasures when we are in danger. It's great."

Then he said with admiration: "Your Majesty's Qing Gong is so good."

"That's right, daddy is amazing, and so is mommy. I knew mommy and daddy could find us." Suisui raised his little face, becoming more and more energetic as he spoke.

Su Jin frowned slightly and remained silent with worry in his eyes.

Jiang Shuyue saw his worries in her eyes.

After a while, Jiang Shuyue coaxed her son to sleep.

Watching Suisui smacking his lips and falling asleep, several people came to the next room.

"Ah Jin, prepare well for the palace examination. Song Yunzhi has committed suicide by jumping into the lake out of fear of sin. What you are worried about will not happen again."

"Why did she just stare at Suisui? She could tell that Suisui was..." Su Jin didn't say the next words.

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "She must have noticed that she wanted to threaten the emperor with years. I don't know exactly what her purpose was, but it doesn't matter. It's all over."

Jiang Shuyue talked for a while before leaving Shumoxuan.

As soon as they walked into the garden, Jiang Shuyue and Qiu Ju stopped in their tracks when a figure flashed in front of them.

"who!"

Jiang Shuyue took a closer look and heard Nangong Zeyue's urgent voice asking: "How is it? Is he okay in Suisui?"

"It's okay, I made you worry. It's getting late, so you don't have to go to the restaurant tonight."

"Well, I'll go back next door in a while, and then go to the restaurant tomorrow morning." Nangong Zeyue saw the smart boy under his command, and he also intended to cultivate it. In fact, it doesn't matter if he goes later.

The two of them stood in the garden and talked for a while before going back to their rooms.

Under the moonlight, a tall figure stood opposite Jiang Mansion.

It was Zhen Jingxiu, who learned about the thrilling scene on the street, and then learned that Princess Changle had been kidnapped by Song Yunzhi.

Others may not think about it carefully, but he is keen and always feels that there is some connection.

"Young Master, it's late at night, and the city guard has declared martial law. He has revealed his seriousness and returned to the house to settle down." The personal servant didn't know why the young master left the house.

Zhen Jingxiu put away the doubts in his heart and turned back to his house. He made up his mind to boldly raise his head and take a look at Long Yan next time he went to the palace to meet the saint.

Xiao Jingzhao ordered all available people to be dispatched. After a night of searching, they captured all the men from the Qingyi Sect who had escaped and those who were looking for Dr. Zhang.

The next day, a notice was posted in front of Jing Zhaoyin's door. Everyone rushed to tell each other, and the news spread throughout the capital.

People gathered in front of the street tea houses were talking a lot.

"It turns out that the person who kidnapped the princess was the princess of the previous dynasty. The emperor did not deprive her of her livelihood. She was too dissatisfied."

"That is, the Song family is greedy for pleasure and makes the people miserable. If it were anyone else who ascended the throne, they would have been killed long ago."

"You don't know, right? Lu Zhizhou personally led people to recover the body from Lianwu Lake, and the eldest princess committed suicide by throwing herself into the lake." A man in coarse cloth said.

The man had been fishing in Lianwu Lake for many years. Today, when he went to the lake, he saw the government officials fishing in the lake. He also lent the fishing boat to the officials.

How could Lu Zhizhou use his boat in vain? He gave him two taels of silver and let him rest for two days.

He usually catches fish and sells them in the market. Sometimes he can't sell them for even one tael of silver for several days.

I was so happy today that I took the money and went to the teahouse to have a drink. The storyteller hadn't arrived yet, so everyone was chatting about gossip.

A woman twisted a melon seed and threw it into her mouth. "It doesn't matter if you die. I used to live a high and noble life. It's so shameless to be reduced to a prisoner. I have no shame to live anymore."

"I heard that she even hired an accomplice. According to the law, she should be beheaded even if she doesn't jump into the lake." A middle-aged man with a refined temperament said slowly.

Three days later, the case was tried clearly, including the amount of money Song Yunzhi had in the bank, and the house she transferred to another place and purchased in the name of someone else, and countless shops, farms and land under her name.

The amount was so large that the court officials were dumbfounded when they learned about it.

What shocked the officials was that she actually colluded with the enemy and tried to collude with the third prince of Liang to attack Wanling and then divide the city.

"No wonder the treasury was empty in the past. It turned out that the silver went to the princess's mansion."

"Fortunately, the Purple Star fell from the sky, and with the new emperor, the treasury is getting fuller day by day."

"If she succeeds, our heads will be moved."

The officials were furious and whispered with their colleagues beside them.

The people were gone, and the impeachment memorials were changed.

Wu Taiwei was the first to stand up and propose: "Your Majesty, I think that Song Yunzhi's crimes are extremely serious. All her property should be put into the national treasury, and her body can be thrown into the mass grave."

The left prime minister in the front row turned around and said: "Sir Wu may not know that there are no mass graves outside the city now."

"That's not right. It was Lin Yuanshou who personally proposed to clean up the mass graves. Rotting corpses can easily cause epidemics." Another minister echoed.

In the end, Xiao Jingzhao listened to the opinions of the ministers and announced that all the property of the Princess's Mansion would be filled into the national treasury, and she would be buried next to the Song family's imperial mausoleum immediately.

It was rare for Lu Zhizhou to take on a major case that shocked the capital. He acted swiftly and decisively. In less than ten days, all the criminals involved were dragged to Caishikou for execution.
