Chapter 129
Although Zhao Chen guessed that his father would speak out in favor of Marquis Yongping, there should always be a limit to everything, even if it was because of Marquis Yongping's ability to hold money, it would not go to such a point.

The statement made by Prefect Hu just now is in the dossier.Marquis Yongping coveted the wealth of the Chen family, murdered him, and made a clear account of the whole story, and one can easily find out the authenticity of it.

Even if he can't act arbitrarily, he should be taken into custody at this time, waiting for verification.

The Chen family's industries spread all over the southwest, and after the Chen family's extermination, the Marquis of Yongping almost emptied these industries.More than [-] million taels of silver, the income of the national treasury for half a year, is enough to put him in jail.

Zhao Chen frowned and said, "Royal Father, this matter is already solidly proven. If you protect Marquis Yongping, not only the Lord Zhaoping will not accept it, but even the Seventh Emperor and Duke Ding will not be able to explain it to you!"

Emperor Qingming raised his eyes to look at him, "How to conclude the case beautifully and convince others depends on your ability."

Zhao Chen closed his eyes.

Even said that!

Although not everything has the truth, there are a lot of muddled things in the world, but Father, how could he tolerate Marquis Yongping!

Looking at his father who was drinking tea calmly, Zhao Chen suddenly realized that the outcome of this matter was doomed from the beginning.

Marquis Yongping, perhaps he took things to the heart of the emperor.

So no matter how much evidence he produces, things will eventually go in that direction.

Just like in the previous life, Marquis Yongping will go to the end safely, control most of the court, and even influence the choice of his father.

He couldn't help feeling startled.

Rabbit dead dog cooking has always existed, but emperors often target generals who have military power and threaten the country.

The Chen family is no more than a mere businessman, and they donate food and silver to the Great Zhou every year. They have no threat, and they are not immune.

When he left the imperial study room, it was already the second watch.

The crescent moon is like a knife, and the stars are like the sea.

The cold air of the night had penetrated into his bones, Zhao Chen gathered his cloak and strode away.

Marquis Yongping strolled out from the side hall, followed Zhao Chen with a smile.

"His Royal Highness, how are you going?"

Zhao Chen's face was gloomy, "Marquis Yongping, Gu still underestimated you."

Marquis Yongping put his sleeves on and said with a smile, "The thief from the prefect of Hu shouted to catch the thief and talked about it indiscriminately. It was the emperor who discerned right from wrong and returned the innocence of the subordinate."

According to the emperor's intention, Hu Wende, as the governor of a government, had a gap with the Chen family's marriage proposal and was rejected. It is not surprising that he murdered to vent his anger.

The silence of the Chen family, and the death of a fifth-rank magistrate, is enough to explain.

Zhao Chen sneered, "More than [-] million taels of silver is the money for Marquis Yongping's life?"

Marquis Yongping looked up at the dark blue sky, and said quietly, "Pigs are fattened, and they will always be killed. As the prince, His Highness should understand this truth."

"Then Yongpinghou, take good care of yourself and don't make yourself too fat."

Zhao Chen flicked his cloak abruptly, left Marquis Yongping behind, and left the palace.

Marquis Yongping smiled, "There won't be that day, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

As soon as it was dawn, Han Youning woke up.

It's already October, and it's a little cold outside. Although the charcoal basin is lit, it still makes people have no courage to get out of bed.

She wrapped the quilt tighter, only half of her red face was exposed, and sighed, "What are you doing with the curtains, the heat is gone."

Ling'er was very happy, the young lady gradually regained some of her previous squeamishness, and she was no longer in a slumbering state.

She rolled up the curtain, and said with a smile, "Miss, this is what you said, to cover the spring and autumn frost, so that the charcoal basin is not too full. Now who is the one who can't get out of bed?"

Spring cover autumn freeze, this is what her grandmother taught her.So growing up so big, she is also strong and rarely gets sick, which shows that this statement makes sense.

She was just happy and wanted to let herself be tired for a while.

"There is nothing to do when you get out of the bed, so you might as well stay in the bed."

"Miss, you forgot, Yu Niang moved today, and you promised to send her off."

Ling'er turned her head and took a jacket from the shelf on the smoker, walked to the bed, and stuffed it under the quilt.

"This jacket is thick, and Yu Niang sewed it overnight. You can try it."

The satin jacket in his arms was soft and warm, Han Youning sat up and hurriedly put on his clothes.

"I forgot about it! What about Yu Niang, it's not that I don't have a coat to wear, why is she staying up late?"

Ling'er helped her put on her clothes and said, "She's tidying up in the room, but the servants looked at her and saw that there were only a few clothes on her left and right, and there was nothing to tidy up."

Han Youning hurriedly washed up and went to the wing.

Yu Niang was originally sitting on the kang, but when she saw her come in, she started busy folding clothes again.

"What are you doing here, hurry up and eat, I still have a lot of things to do here!"

Han Youning saw the tears in the corner of Yuniang's eyes.

"Then hurry up!"

She turned away.

After breakfast, they left Jinhe Hall together.

Before leaving the Chuihua Gate, I met Mrs. Han and Han Qingwan, dressed in elegant dresses, followed by a few maidservants, as if they were about to go out.

Han Qingwan was full of smiles, "The county owner seems to be in a good mood."

Han Youning looked at her and found that her eyebrows were stretched and her face was rosy, but she seemed to be in a better mood than her.

"The eldest cousin looks in a good mood."

Han Qingwan smiled, "That's natural. Today is my grandfather's birthday. It's a great day, so there's no reason to be unhappy. Send someone early in the morning to remind us to go early."

Yongpinghou birthday?
Even if he is not in the prison, he should be running around to save his life!
How could he have the mind to hold a birthday banquet?

Han Youning looked at Mrs. Han again, with a calm expression, without any panic.

They are brothers and sisters who depend on each other with lips and teeth, and they discuss everything with each other. If something happens to the Marquis of Yongping, Mrs. Han may not be so calm at this time.

She said, "Then do it for me. I wish the old man a long life."

Han Qingwan smiled gently, not concealing her pride, "I will bring it. My grandfather will naturally live a long life, and the Yongping Hou Mansion will continue to be rich."

After leaving the Chuihua Gate, after Mrs. Han and the others left, Han Youning told Duan Yi, "Go and inquire about the progress of the Chen family's case."

Duan Yi should be.

But Ye Chang felt that the hostess's habit of not relying on others for everything was not good. There is a prince here, do you need to ask yourself?
He held Duan Yi back, "Why should the county master bother himself, why not send someone back to Prince Jin's mansion, and then he will know everything."

"Alright." Han Youning said.

She was so anxious that she forgot about Zhao Chengyuan.

The small house in Le'anfang became lively.

The furniture was bought off-the-shelf, and each shop gave away pots, pans, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and fabrics and cotton. Guys came in and out, and Yu Niang ordered them to place them loudly.

Yu Niang arranged the second entrance in the same layout as Jinhetang Xiaokuayuan, and she really planned to let her come and live there from time to time.

Han Youning was out of his mind, sitting in the study in a daze.

She had a bad feeling that Marquis Yongping was safe and sound.

 The second watch is very afternoon...
