Is the prince infertile?The lady was so happy!

Chapter 83 The Emperor Is Helpless

"No, it was discovered early and rescued." Li Fucheng sighed, "Fortunately, she is not a man, otherwise, with such ruthlessness, what can't be done?"

"Hmph. Even if she is a woman, who of you would dare to despise her?"

"That's true." Li Fucheng chuckled, "It's just that we have failed here. After all, the Princess Anqing and the deposed prince still failed to get married."

"No success, no success." Ying Ning slowly turned the teacup, "Anyway, Gu Yingxun is done. Brother, it's time to release the evidence in your hand."

"I've been waiting for this day."

After Gu Yingxun returned, he presented a series of evidence such as witnesses and confessions in front of the emperor.

Unexpectedly, the emperor just called Zhang Gaoqiu over to confront the killer face to face.

The killer is just doing things for money, how could he have met someone of Zhang Gaoqiu's level?
Even if he insisted that the person who gave the money at that time was from the Shu Palace, Zhang Gaoqiu could deny it.

Li Fucheng watched from the side, and felt that this matter would depend on the emperor's attitude after all.

After all, the matter has already been publicized that the deposed prince Gu Yingxun did the killing of the daughter for his heart, and Princess Anqing did not hesitate to drink medicine and cut his wrists in order to break with the deposed prince.

In the eyes of the common people, Princess Anqing seems to have become a woman who defends the people.

If this matter is exposed again now, will the emperor depose Zhang Gaoqiu, the king of Shu?
The emperor is absolutely unwilling.

Although he is the emperor, he is just a person sitting in the palace. He needs his ministers to guard and govern the country for him.

The Japanese pirates disturbing the people along the river in the southeast have always been a serious problem for the imperial court.

Zhang Gaoqiu is the only one in the imperial court who is good at water battles and has the talent of a commander.

If he is abolished, is it possible for the emperor to go to the southeast along the river to fight against Japanese pirates?

The emperor first severely reprimanded the killer, then symbolically reprimanded Zhang Gaoqiu for his lax family management, fined him three years of salary, and ordered him to go back and reflect on himself.

In the end, the emperor praised Li Fucheng again, and promoted him to be the deputy governor of Jinyiwei.

Li Fucheng choked for a while.

He knew that with such a killer, it was impossible to completely bring down Zhang Gaoqiu, but he didn't expect that he didn't even touch Zhang Gaoqiu's oily skin.

A three-year salary is nothing to him, is it?

Sure enough, you have to be hard to strike iron.

Zhang Gaoqiu himself was capable, even if he killed the emperor's own son, the emperor would not dare to do anything to him.

At least, not yet.

After a few more snowfalls, it was New Year's Eve.

Ying Ning is already nine months pregnant, so it is impossible to return to the Hou Mansion for the New Year.

As the hostess of the Hou Mansion, even though she misses and misses her daughter very much, in order to deceive others, it is impossible for Yang to leave the whole family and come to Zhuangzi at this time.

Lord Li Hou is still fighting the chaos in the north, and he can't come back.Li Fucheng was on duty in the palace, Li Diyao was studying in the academy, and Yang was at home celebrating the New Year with three aunts and two concubines.

Aunt Baixiu lost her daughter, so naturally she couldn't be happy.

The other two aunts were honest and did not dare to smile.

This year, it's been a boring one.

Ying Ning stayed in the Zhuangzi, although there were only two maidservants and a young servant by her side, she tried her best to make arrangements and had a prosperous year.

"Today's Chinese New Year, regardless of size, nine pounds, you lock the front yard door, come and help sister Zhelan, put the food on the table, let's eat together, New Year's Eve."
