The most important witness died, and the public opinion guided by the public, Ning Guogong entered the palace and expressed his tears that he was willing to guarantee his life that General Liu was killed by a traitor.

The Crown Prince and Nangong Yan and Nangong Yan debated fiercely in the court all day. Finally, the emperor ordered that General Liu was acquitted.

——

When Ye Miao received the news, he was using breakfast.

After reading the letter, there was no surprise on my face.

Regarding General Liu, she always thought that she had planned it in her previous life, which aroused the emperor's compassion.

But looking at the overall situation in this life, I knew what was wrong. She had a plan to impress the emperor. It was obvious that the emperor intended to let General Liu go and take advantage of the situation to balance the power of the prince and Nangong Yan.

Ye Miao could figure this out clearly, and Duke Zhao, who had always controlled the overall situation, could see it thoroughly.

On the second day after General Liu was rebelled and innocent, Duke Zhao went to the palace to meet the queen mother.

At this time, the empress was talking to the empress dowager in Yongshou Palace.

"Mother, I just learned that when the emperor went to Taizhong Academy to watch the competition a few days ago, he went to find... that little bitch." The queen said gritting her teeth.

The Queen Mother frowned, "But what happened?"

If this is the case, then that girl would be too restless. While saying that she would not enter the palace, she would hook the emperor and refuse to let go. What kind of discipline is it?

"This...is not." The queen said: "The emperor is going to have a midnight snack."

The empress dowager looked at her with a little dissatisfaction, "That girl can make the meal that the emperor can see, and you didn't know about it on the first day! It's rare that the emperor can use a few more mouthfuls. Could it be that you think the emperor has no appetite every day and starves the dragon body?"

The queen hurriedly said, "I dare not, I am just worried..."

"Okay!" The Queen Mother interrupted impatiently.

For the Queen Mother, as long as Taohua did not seduce the emperor according to the rules, she would not care about everything else.

After all, the emperor is her own son, and only she will really care about the emperor's body, rather than being jealous of the favor!

The queen bit her lip, "I understand."

At this time, the palace servant said outside: "Empress Dowager, Lord Zhao, please see me!"

"Prince!"

"See the Queen Mother, Queen Mother!"

"Brother (father) doesn't have to be too polite!"

The queen went down to help Duke Zhao up in person.

"Empress, if you have something to do with your father, you should go back first."

"Yes, mother." The queen glanced at Duke Zhao, "Father, daughter left first."

"Great send to the Queen."

After the empress left, Duke Zhao faced the empress dowager, "Empress Dowager, General Liu's loopholes are so obvious, but the emperor still acquits him. This is obviously a favoritism with Duke Ning, and the old minister is afraid..."

The Empress Dowager rubbed her eyebrows, and her face that had always been strong showed a bit of fatigue. "The Ai family knows. The last time when Lord Luo's affairs, the emperor gave in to the Ai family, and this time the Ai family had to give in to the emperor."

She sighed, "No matter what, the emperor crawled out of Ai's belly. Ai's family doesn't want to make a fuss with him, mother and son."

Zhao Guogong said: "The old minister understands the difficulties of the Empress Dowager, but the old minister is worried that if this continues, the throne will be lost."

"Brother is thinking too much." When talking about the throne, the empress dowager seemed to be exhausted. She said strongly: "The throne must be inherited by the crown prince! This is the bottom line of the Ai family. On this point, the Ai family will never give in no matter what!"

Duke Zhao's old lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"The old minister understands."

——

At this time, in Nangong Yan's palace, Ning Ruan was sitting down at her head and having tea and chatting with her.

After chatting for a while, Ning Ruan mentioned Luo Qingyu.

"The eldest brother placed her in a house next to the Duke of Ningguo's mansion. When the servants in the house said that it was clearly an outdoor room, Luo Qingyu treated herself as the wife of the house and called her to them." Ning Ruan said: "Princess, are you laughing?"

Nangong Yan snorted from his nose and pinched the teacup in his hand, "How is the thing I asked you to do?"

"Don't worry, princess, I have bribed the maid and nanny who take care of her. I will take regular doses of each meal every day. The portion is extremely light. Even if the doctor takes the pulse, he will not see any problem."

Nangong Yan said: "I can't see it now, but I will always see it after a long time."

"I understand, I'm already trying to find a way to buy the doctor."

Nangong Yan nodded with satisfaction.

A ray of jealousy flashed through his eyes.

That bitch, she not only won’t let her give birth to her eldest cousin’s child, but also let her experience the pain of stillbirth!

After observing her expression, Ning Ruan said carefully: "Princess, can you lend me some hands?"

"What are you doing?" Nangong Yan said casually.

"I want to deal with one person."

——

At the end of October, after a private trial, Ye Ming and others returned to Lin'an Marquis' Mansion.

The next morning, Ye Li had just finished breakfast when Linglong said outside: "Miss Fifth, Miss Second is here."

"Second sister is here? Please come in!"
