Houfu Key Class

Tong Ya huddled next to Zong Wenxiu and said nothing.

"Hey, why don't you speak? Are you more introverted than my brother?" The little devil wondered.

Tong Ya shrank back to Zong Wenxiu again.

Zong Wenxiu comforted her: "Tongya, don't be afraid. His name is Jincheng. He is my cousin and related by blood."

Tong Ya spoke timidly, as if she hadn't spoken for a long time, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Brother, I miss you so much, I miss my mother..."

Zong Wenxiu said with red eyes: "We miss you too, my aunt...it's okay, don't think so much. When we go out, I will take you to see your aunt."

Tongya nodded with tears in her eyes.

Officials from outside came in and wanted to take Tong Ya away for questioning.

Tong Ya was very scared and grabbed Zong Wenxiu and refused to let go.

Zong Wenxiu comforted her: "Don't be afraid. Just tell the truth. My aunt is watching from outside. She won't let anything happen to us."

Tong Ya's fear did not lessen, she just asked: "What is your aunt's identity?"

As soon as these words came out, several cubs were stunned.

The little devil was the quickest to react. He thought of the attitude of the people in the dance studio towards the Hou Mansion and the Shangshu Mansion. It was obvious that the people behind them were powerful. If Tong Ya also knew this, in order not to implicate Xu Wan, she would probably Not telling the truth.

Zong Jincheng quickly stepped forward and said something in her ear. Tongya immediately looked at him with wide eyes: "Really...really?"

The little devil nodded firmly and pretended to be serious: "Really, otherwise I would have the guts to cause trouble everywhere?"

Tong Ya believed it.

She walked out resolutely and decided to cooperate with the officers in questioning.

After they left, the two Zaizai quickly gathered around and asked, "Jincheng, what did you just say to Tong Ya? Why did she suddenly believe you?"

The little devil sat on the floor carefree and said confidently: "Of course I told her that I have a big backer."

Zong Wenxiu was confused: "Ah? What kind of backer? Grandfather?"

He Zheng retorted: "How is it possible? They are not afraid of the Hou Mansion. Jincheng, are you proposing the crown prince?"

In the past few months, rumors had circulated in the capital that Zong Jincheng was the prince's illegitimate son, which had caused quite a stir.

The little devil said casually: "I've been taking the blame for a few months. It's good to sit down for a while. It will embolden Tong Ya."

Zong Wenxiu: "..."

You really dare to say anything.

He even told Tongya that he was the prince's son...

But after saying this, Tong Ya will definitely not be afraid anymore. What powerful ability is greater than that of the prince? Even the Prime Minister can't.

He Zheng said worriedly: "Then what if the prince doesn't care about us? Will we all be doomed?"

Although He Shangshu knew everything, Jin Cheng didn't. He didn't want to see his brother in trouble.

The little devil sighed and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? We are reasonable. Your Highness the Crown Prince serves the country and the people most. How could he not care about us?"

not to mention……

What's more, I am the one who comes to teach the second-grade officials how to conduct themselves every month.

I am the prince's disciple. Does the prince's disciple understand?

The little devil secretly keeps a little secret with the prince and doesn't tell anyone.

The Yamen interrogated Tong Ya alone for a long time. After the questions came out, Xu Wan obviously felt that the officials' faces were much paler, and they were hesitant to reply to her.

Yamen should be fair and impartial in handling affairs, so this reaction may be a little bad.

There is someone behind the dance studio, and his status is not low.

Xu Wan began to calculate her network in her mind. Although Mrs. He said that she would owe her a favor, this matter was of great importance and it would only be possible if He Shangshu came forward, but He Shangshu would not be willing to get involved in this matter. .

In addition, there is Mrs. Shen, the daughter-in-law of the Minister of Rites, a close friend of the Crown Princess, but she may not be able to help...

Xu Wan paced in place, and after a long while she said to Cuizhi: "Let's go to the East Palace and ask to see the Crown Princess."

When the officials heard this, they felt even more nervous.

Before Xu Wan left, she felt that their faces were visibly paler.

What are they afraid of?

"If the prince intervenes, this matter will become a big deal." The officials looked at each other and whispered.

"But we can't afford to offend any of these people."

"Leaving it unchecked would be unfair to the people. Why don't you let Your Highness handle it? It's time for these embarrassing things to end."

"God bless Your Highness, I hope everything goes well."

East Palace.

Xu Wan came to see the Crown Princess as usual. The Crown Princess was already in confinement, and her whole body exuded the brilliance of motherhood.

After listening to Xu Wan's story, the princess also felt that something was wrong, so she sent someone to send a message to the prince.

It didn't take long.

Three people appeared at the door of the Yamen.

"See His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness is a thousand years old."

The prince went in first and said, "Show Tong Ya's confession to Gu."

"yes."

The Crown Princess and Xu Wan were sitting outside, waiting for the Crown Prince to handle the case.

Not long after, the official hurriedly ran out from inside, leading many people and rushing out, still holding the Prince's East Palace Order in his hand.

Not long after, the official mission did not come back, but three senior officials came one after another.

Du Cha Yuan Zuo Du Yushi, Dali Temple Qing, Xingbu Shangshu.

When Xu Shangshu saw Xu Wan sitting there, he was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out: "Why are you here?"

There were many outsiders around, but Xu Wan still saved him some face and blessed his body: "Father, something happened to the child at home. I'm here to wait for the outcome of the trial."

"It's your child who caused this..." Xu Shangshu felt guilty immediately, he was so angry that he didn't dare to get angry.

This matter is of great importance, involving a high-ranking official who committed a serious crime. The three judicial bosses of Da Chu have all come, and a wide range of people are involved. Minister Xu originally came to cooperate in the investigation, but now he is afraid of being implicated by Xu Wan when he sees her.

He wanted to ask a few more questions, but the inside was urging him, and the Crown Princess was sitting next to him, so Minister Xu hurriedly chased after her.

Xu Wan also realized that something was wrong at this time: "Crown Princess, Your Highness asked people to join the investigation so quickly, just because of Tong Ya's confession?"

The Crown Princess's face was also a little embarrassed, and she smiled a little hard: "I rarely ask about the affairs of the court, maybe Your Highness has other clues."

After a while.

The officials came back, and a young man in gorgeous clothes stood in the middle.

That was... Zhai Li from Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion.

One of the four little dandies in the capital, the father of Zhai Yao.

The prince's officials wanted to arrest Zhai Li.

Xu Wan remembered that although the Marquis's Mansion was not as high as the Marquis's Mansion, Zhai Li was the only son of the Princess of Pingyang, and Madam Zhai was also the aunt of the Eighteenth Princess. The Eighteenth Princess once came to Xu Wan's house to plead for Zhai Yao.

The officials in the capital liked marriage the most. Because of the marriage relationship, the two families were closer, intertwined and difficult to separate.

The prince's move might cause chaos if it was not handled properly.

But...

Xu Wan thought, is that all?

Just the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion scared the officials pale and at a loss, made the people in the dance hall arrogant and ignored the Marquis' Mansion, and made the prince call all the bosses in charge of the three major judicial departments of Da Chu for a joint trial?
