The princess is coquettish and coquettish, conquering the emperor's master

This Yizhou encompasses the lands of Shu and Dian, and is the largest prefecture and county in Chu State.

The famous plank road case is that the emperor of Chu allocated a lot of money from the Ministry of Households to build plank roads in order to change the relationship between Yizhou and the Central Plains a few years ago.

However, the money transferred by the Ministry of Household Affairs has passed through officials one after another, and there is not much left. Even the new plank road has been built like a tofu project.

A few months ago, a caravan wanted to go from the Central Plains to Yizhou, passing through the Jinniu Road, and chose to take the newly built plank road, but the plank road broke due to the heavy cargo, and the entire caravan died.

After the incident was reported to Yujing in an instant, the Emperor Chu was furious, and then the case fell on Shen Hanzhang.

Actually, Gu Huai'an didn't really believe in Shen Hanzhang's ability, he was a master at composing poems, but investigating cases was another science.

If the reason for this is not found out, Shen Hanzhang is afraid that he will be questioned...

His princess sister, who was thinking of Shen Hanzhang, couldn't help crying and fainting in the palace.

Gu Huaian said: "If you feel that your ability is limited, this official should reject the emperor for you and send another official to Yizhou."

Without even thinking about it, Shen Hanzhang said, "No, thank you for your kindness. Hanzhang is willing to go to Yizhou to investigate the case."

Gu Huaian was at a loss for words.

He knows that if Shen Hanzhang rejects the emperor this time, the road to promotion in the future will be even more distant, but the Gu family is not a vegetarian in the court, if he wants to promote Shen Hanzhang, just pile up a few cases for him...

Who knows, Shen Hanzhang agreed without thinking about it.

Sure enough, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. This plank road case involves officials of one level after another. If they accidentally offend any dignitary in the court, they may be beaten up.

He was so straightforward, Gu Huai'an didn't have much to say, so he picked up the teacup and blew on it.

"It's good that you have such a self-motivated spirit."

Shen Hanzhang looked down.

"Let's go back and get ready. We will set off tomorrow with Wu Cheng, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Feng Qin, the supervisory censor."

"Yes."

After Shen Hanzhang withdrew, he left Dali Temple and went back to his residence to pack his things.

At this time, a carriage quietly stopped by the roadside.

Zhong Qing cupped his long sword in his hand and said to Xiao Yan in the car: "My lord, Shen Hanzhang has come down."

Xiao Yan played with the Buddha beads, the corners of his lips slightly outlined a graceful arc.

"understood."

Zhong Qing pursed his lips, still puzzled.

"My lord, why did you take so much effort to get Shen Hanzhang to Yizhou? He can't pose any threat to you, my lord..."

It can't pose any threat.

But he is going to the land of Sanwu, so he can't rest assured that Shen Hanzhang will stay in Yujing, it's better to go to Yizhou for a while.

Xiao Yan looked at the red sandalwood Buddha beads in his hand, and said coldly: "This is not your business."

Zhong Qing choked.

"Yes."

"Did Zheng Guogong's notebook be presented to him?"

"It was submitted early this morning. King Jin should be on his way into the palace now. I believe King Jin's party will soon collapse."

"Well, it's time to give the things in Jiang Wenyi's hands to the emperor..."

"Yes, the subordinate will send someone to notify you later."

……

In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

Meng Qing was finally free. The first thing she did was to find Emperor Chu and get permission to go out of Beijing for a visit.

She came to wait outside the palace early, and Chen Jia stepped forward to persuade: "Your Highness, the emperor is currently furious about Prince Jin's affairs, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to come now."

"King Jin?"

Meng Qing thought about it carefully.

That's right, Zheng Guogong submitted the evidence to his father half a month ago, and Jiang Wenyi followed closely behind. The investigation of this case took half a month.

Now that the hammer is real, Jin Wang is afraid that he will not be able to jump for a long time.

There were reprimands and reprimands in the hall, resounding through the heavens, and finally the Emperor Chu couldn't bear to kill King Jin, so he ordered him to be confined to King Jin's mansion and imprisoned for life.

But after a while, Jin Wang came out of the Golden Luan Hall in a dejected manner. His face was pale, his forehead was blood red, and beads of sweat were dripping out.

Meng Qing opened her mouth to salute after seeing it, "Uncle Emperor."

King Jin's eyes darkened, he sneered at her and left.

With his attitude, he should know that Zheng Guogong belongs to her.

Meng Qing looked at the words on the plaque in the hall, her throat choked up.

King Jin was imprisoned, and Jiayuan no longer had to worry about being harmed by his father.

Eunuch Xia came across the threshold with his body bowed.

"Your Highness, the Emperor has called you in."

"it is good."

Meng Qing walked straight into the hall.

I saw Emperor Chu sitting on the dragon chair, propping his forehead with one hand, with an extremely ugly expression on his face.

Meng Qing timidly called out, "Royal Father."

Only then did Emperor Chu pick up his smile, raised his head to look at Meng Qing, and said, "I've been confined for a month, I'm afraid I'm suffocated?"

Meng Qing was ten feet away from him and dared not approach him.

"My son is really suffocated, can my father give my son a vacation?"

Chu Huang's brows almost twisted into a Sichuan character, "Holiday?"

"My son wants to leave Yujing and see the wider world of Chu."

"You want to leave Yujing? Qingqing, the world is in chaos now. It's too dangerous for you to leave Yujing as a woman. Wouldn't it be good to stay with your father and mother?"

Why didn't she want to stay with her father and concubine mother to fulfill her filial piety, but time waits for no one, and her father will pass away in half a year, she also wants to ascend the throne smoothly and start to deal with Xiao Yan.

The country of Chu cannot be lost.

Meng Qing raised a faint smile, but with bitterness, she said: "Father, I have grown up so big, I have never seen the majestic mountains and rivers of Chu, I don't want to hide in Yujing in a mediocre way. A frog at the bottom of a well, he is here for the sake of the father, and also for the son himself, and even more for the thousands of people in the Chu Kingdom, the son begs the father to be fulfilled!"

She knelt heavily on the ground and bowed to the Emperor Chu.

Chu Huang wanted to say something, it can be seen that her desire to leave was so strong, she swallowed the words.

He waved his hand, "That's all, you go..."

"My son, thank you, Father."

Meng Qing raised her head and looked sadly at the gray-haired man in front of her. She was leaving for a while, not knowing when she would come back and whether she would see him again.

Father, please forgive my son and minister for being unfilial, I cannot stay by your side to fulfill my filial piety.

I don't know if we will see each other in the future, maybe this is the last time she can see her father so close.

The mountains and rivers of the state of Chu, my son-in-law vowed to protect you to the death.

She gritted her teeth, her eyes were already flushed, and she went straight away after saluting.

Chu Huang looked at Meng Qing's back reluctantly, as if a rope was entangled, which made his heart ache.

Her back is so lonely, she looks small in this imperial city, like a ball of willow catkins in this Yujing City, going to a wider sky.

He always felt that Meng Qing would never come back after this trip, and he would never see his little daughter again...

This time it seemed to be saying goodbye to him, as if he was going to do something very powerful.

It's the end of the month, my dears, ask for a ticket to be on the list for the last time, and we will add it tomorrow!
