The empress dowager behind the pearl curtain gradually relaxed her originally tight back. She thought about it in her heart, weighed it quickly, and when she spoke again, her tone became much softer.

"Young Master Yu's words are reasonable."

Song Ze was still smiling, as if the argument just now was not the beginning of him.

"I'm going to discuss it."

Neither of the two auxiliary ministers had any objections, the empress dowager also made sense, and the others looked at each other, making them even more speechless.

Princess Chengping was sleeping for ten years and had little to do with the forces in the court today. Whether she was the eldest princess or not had much to do with the court officials. No matter how noble the eldest princess is, she is just a title without a real position.

This matter was settled.

Only the little emperor felt that he had been ignored by everyone from beginning to end, and was very unhappy. Seeing that everyone had already started to talk about other political affairs naturally, the little emperor simply climbed down from his seat and ran out of the hall without saying a word.

The hall was quiet for another moment, and the ministers who were discussing the matter turned their heads and their eyes followed the figure of the little emperor.

Empress Dowager Xiao frowned and glanced at her maid Nianyu. Nianyu hurriedly chased her out.

The emperor was gone, so it was supposed to retreat to the court, but Empress Xiao hesitated for a moment and still sat steadily behind the bead curtain without moving.

Although she should put the maintenance of the emperor first, if the emperor's willfulness repeatedly delays the government affairs, what else does it have to sit here as the empress dowager? In the end, the court officials will lose trust in her.

"Where did you just talk about it? Keep going." Empress Xiao asked gently.

The court officials took their eyes away, pretended that nothing had happened, and continued to discuss matters.

On that day, when Yu Shunchen was going home after handling the one-day official business, Jiang Yancheng followed him sneakily, regardless of others' eyes, climbed onto the Yu family's carriage.

"Jun Yao, do you really want to send Princess Chengping to prison?"

Yu Shunchen frowned, "What?"

Jiang Yancheng hurriedly said, "Didn't you say it in the morning court? It's spread everywhere now, saying that in order to avenge the revenge of that year, you have to send Princess Chengping to prison with your own hands! For this reason, she deliberately gave her the title of eldest princess, with the purpose of wanting her to stand higher, the worse she will fall."

Today is not the New Year and Night. Jiang Yancheng, a sixth-rank official, does not have to go to the morning court, so he did not see the morning incident with his own eyes, but just heard people afterwards.

Yu Shunchen paused and denied: "I haven't said such a thing."

Jiang Yancheng leaned over to Yu Shunchen and sat down: "She treated you like that, even if you wanted to seek justice! Don't worry, as a friend, I will definitely help you! I heard that many cases involving Princess Chengping were sealed back then. If you want to do it, I will help you find all the files tomorrow!"

Jiang Yancheng's words were not a big deal. He is now a temple chief in Dali Temple.

"No need..." Yu Shunchen said to refuse, but after pondering for a moment, he changed his words, "Okay. However, this matter should not be known to others."

Jiang Yancheng looked like "I understand" and patted his chest and promised: "I'm doing my business, don't worry!"

At the same time, Ying Dongjun received a secret letter from the palace, which wrote in detail what happened in the morning court.

Ying Dongjun read the secret letter with relish, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Xiao Jixiang, who was standing next to Ying Dongjun and peeked at the letter, couldn't help but tell her princess: I want to send you to the pain of prison, but you still laugh!

Ying Dongjun put his forehead on his back and thought for a while, his eyebrows and eyes curled up, and his charm was infinite.

"In prison? I'm wearing prison uniforms and shackles. Yu Lang walked over in his purple court uniform and took a whip... Thinking of this, it seemed like it was a different feeling."

Xiao Jixiang:...

Ying Dongjun smiled and kneaded the secret letter in his hand into a ball, and threw it at the gilded turtle-lobular-patterned silver incense stove that the Empress Dowager had sent before. Unfortunately, the incense stove covered the lid, and the paper ball bounced open and rolled to the ground.

Xiao Jixiang walked over and picked up the paper ball, opened the lid of the fumigation furnace, took the paper apart and ignited it, and threw it in.

Ying Dongjun: "The second emperor's concubine named Han Shuang is really interesting. She actually sent me a message to me. She can also find out the matter in the court clearly. This palace is like raising a gu, and it is not easy to survive until now. I just don't know what kind of monster I have developed while raising it."

Xiao Jixiang: No matter what, your position as the eldest princess should be stable.

Ying Dongjun snorted, with a smile on his lips, but said willfully: "If it weren't for Yu Lang, I wouldn't want to be him! The eldest princess and the eldest princess all called me old. And after he was disturbed like this, no one would be grateful to him. Even grandmother and her grandmother might think he was troublesome."

Xiao Jixiang: Isn’t the Empress Dowager’s purpose of making the princess the eldest princess? Now that things have been done, why do you think Lord Yu is troublesome?
