Fragrance Returned

Prince Consort Xun looked at his daughter and sighed, "Fortunately, I have a daughter, otherwise Dongyang would be in big trouble again. As for the consequences, I didn't want to be an official, so I just took this opportunity to resign and do what I want to do."

"The first thing I did was go to Hu County and compile "Original Geometry" with Li Lai... Alas, it was my father who was sorry for you. He was incompetent and allowed you to be stolen in your infancy. It took a lot of hard work to return to this home.

"I can't restrain Dongyang, which makes you and your brother lose face."

He sighed and looked out the window, looking even more sad, which made Xun Xiang feel distressed.

Dinner came. Xun Xiang ate a few bites, while Prince Consort Xun barely ate and only drank a few glasses of wine.

Xunxiang stayed with him silently until the second door was about to close before getting up and leaving.

The next day, news came from the palace that Princess Xiyang had indeed bitten Dongyang. Her purpose is also to hope that Dongyang will be saved by the queen, and she can use the light to reduce her guilt.

When she gave the big gift to Dongyang Bangchui, one of the reasons was to ask her for help, and the other was to prevent such a day from happening. If she is unlucky, Dongyang will not be well off either.

The court was extremely lively. Not only were the articles about the impeachment of Concubine Li and King Qi, Xiyang and Prince Consort Shen and their party flying into the palace like snow flakes, there were also articles about the impeachment of Princess Dongyang, Prince Consort Xun and Xun Qianli.

It is said that Princess Dongyang accepted bribes to work for Shen Mou, and that Xun Qianli connived at Princess Dongyang to accept large bribes, but Xun Qianli did not report the knowledge...

What's more, they directly said that Princess Dongyang, like Princess Xiyang, worked for Japanese pirates...

Among those impeached, there were also several people arranged by the Zhenhai Marquis Mansion, who were asked by Xun Xiang to do it for Sun Yumu. They were the first to impeach, mainly to draw attention to Princess Dongyang's idea that Shan was deceived, and Prince Consort Xun and Xun Qianli had no idea...

The streets and alleys of the capital exploded.

Concubine Li and King Qi, Prince Consort Shen and Princess Xiyang were traitors to the Japanese. Sun Linzhang, who died ten years ago, was not dead... King Kang and King Ji were framed by Concubine Li and King Qi...

The concubine and the prince, the princess and the prince-in-law actually united to betray the country. Not to mention the first case in this dynasty, it had never happened in the previous dynasty.

The common people used their imaginations to imagine, and there were all kinds of rumors. Because there were so many royal people involved, the quarrel was even more serious than that between Su and Gao Feng.

On the morning of September 16th, Jinwu Guards came to take Dongyang and Xun Consort to the Zongren Mansion for investigation.

Only then did Dongyang realize that her father, the emperor, and her mother really didn't care about her anymore. Without their help, I am nothing.

Dongyang was so frightened that he became weak and cried to Prince Consort Xun, "Prince Prince Consort, I'm sorry, I've embarrassed you. I didn't expect Xiyang to be so bad..."

Prince Consort Xun didn't look at her and got into the carriage first.

Seeing the frightened Xun Xiang, he said to her again, "Xiang Xiang, my mother did not communicate with the Japanese, and those things were not sent by Shen Mou, really. Please go and beg your father and mother, they feel sorry for you and will definitely keep them." You and your brother..."

Xun Xiang nodded, "Mom and dad, take care. As long as we don't get through to the Japanese, there won't be any big problems."

Xun Xiang asked someone to call Xun Yibo back from the Imperial Academy, and together they sorted out the dirty things sent by Princess Xiyang and sent them to Kunning Palace for Queen Ye to handle.

The brother and sister thanked guests behind closed doors and stayed at home. Xun Yibo will not go to school until the Dongyang matter is settled.

Xun Yibo blamed himself very much. He was the eldest son, but he failed to restrain his mother and take good care of his sister, which caused the family to suffer unreasonable disasters.

He sighed, "Even if my mother is fine, I don't want to go to the Imperial College to study. I want my husband to teach me at home so that he can take care of the family, take good care of my mother, and take good care of my sister."

Xun Xiang disagreed, "There are many good gentlemen in the Imperial College. Only by learning well can you cultivate your character, govern your family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world. Mom has learned such a big lesson this time and doesn't dare to mess around again...at least for a short time."

Just as he was talking, Ding Zhuang and Zhang came to Ziyuan.

Ding Zhuang was worried about his granddaughter and brought Zhang to accompany Xunxiang.

The four of them talked in the purple courtyard during the day, and Ding Zhuang and Xun Yibo stayed in the outer courtyard at night.

Xun Yibo liked the Ding family very much. When they came, they seemed to have a backbone.

Because Xun Qianli was impeached, it was difficult for the Xun family to come here, and other families also avoided coming.

In order to avoid suspicion, Xunxiang didn't even go to the palace.

Feifei became a little messenger again, delivering messages between Sun Yumu and Xunxiang.

On September 20, Wang Lei came to Beijing with several witnesses and some evidence, including Sun Linzhang's informant and Li Qin.

Ten years ago, after Sun Linzhang disappeared, the informant and Li Qin went into hiding. Based on Sun Linzhang's tips, Qiu Wangzhi and Wang Lei first found the informant and then Li Qin.

Wang Lei handed over the witnesses and evidence to Qiu Wangzhi.

Qiu Wangzhi said, "Thank you for your hard work. You can go home and rest for a few days."

He cannot go home yet and is responsible for the execution and interrogation of prisoners.

Wang Lei left Jinwu Guard and did not go home directly. Instead, he went to Fengenhou Mansion.

Dong Ping was at home with Ding You. He stayed in the main courtyard with his wife and children almost every day, ignoring what was going on outside the window.

When I heard that Wang Lei was coming, I hurried to the outer study room.

After sending his servants away, Wang Lei's eyes showed excitement.

He whispered, "I met my third brother in East Fujian, and he said that my wife had arrived safely in Sabah. All the false information about Li Fei was also sent out, and Wo Kou was led by the general and the uncle...

"The general and the uncle are safe. All matters have been bypassed by Shen Mou and Commander Li. If nothing happens, they will be able to leave Sabah as soon as the war is over..."

There were three false reports sent. One of them was that the emperor believed in Dong Yihe very much. In order to boost morale, the emperor had sent King Jing to personally inspect and reward Dong Yihe and his navy. The accompanying personnel included the Marquis of Zhenhai and many navy commanders. government officials.

King Jing is the seventh prince Gao Qin, and he is the biggest rival of King Qi. I hope they can catch all King Jing and Marquis Zhenhai...

Dong Ping was happy and sad at the same time, holding back his tears.

Even though we will never see each other again, it is good to know that they are safe. I hope the Japanese pirates will be fooled...

After a moment, he asked again, "Have all the matters assigned by the Emperor been completed?"

"It's done, the evidence is conclusive. Don't let Concubine Li, King Qi, Shen Mou, or Xiyang escape..."

"Okay, I understand, you go back and have a rest."

Wang Lei left Fengenhou Mansion and went to the street to buy some gifts for his mother, nephew, and Ding family before returning home.

Two days later, Ding Zhen went to the princess mansion to visit Xunxiang.

On September 24, emergency reports came from Zhejiang and Fujian. A huge overflow occurred in the East China Sea, which also affected the coasts of Zhejiang and Fujian, causing certain losses.

There is no news about Dong Jiajun fighting in the Southeast China Sea, and the situation is not optimistic.

This news caused an uproar in the court. Mrs. Zhang cried bitterly when she learned about it, and Ding Zhuang's heart was so high.

Xunxiang advised, "Uncle knows how to observe the sky, so he should be able to avoid disasters. Don't worry, mother, my eldest brother is auspicious and everything will be fine..."

Ding Zhuang and Zhang didn't want to stay here anymore and hurried back to Ding's house.

In the evening, Xunxiang wanted to use the last indicator of the year, and she wanted to know the news about Ding Lichun.
