My uncle used this method very skillfully. With just a few words, he made them confess who was behind this and made them feel grateful to my brother, the Crown Prince.

The originally bustling mansion returned to silence in an instant after the people left.

"Thank you, His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, and General Jin for today."

Marquis Qingyuan raised his hand and gestured for invitation, "Please come in."

The prince shook his head, "I still have things to deal with."

Jin Ting'an also shook his head. "I still have to deal with those people I just arrested, so I won't go in."

The two turned and left together. As they parted ways, Jin Ting'an took out a pure gold pendant and handed it to the prince.

"Your Highness, please give this to Luo'er."

Yu Yiluo, who was sitting in a carriage not far away and watching this scene, had shining eyes.

[It's gold, no wonder it's so shiny. My uncle is so kind.]

The emperor raised his hand to lower the curtain when the little guy's inner voice sounded again.

[Hey, isn't that Concubine Shu in that carriage? She was so impatient to come inspect the results. She must be pissed off now.]

…

Concubine Shu was sitting in a low-key carriage. After witnessing everything that happened in the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, she lowered the curtain with a sullen face.

Lu Er was puzzled, thinking that Concubine Shu was tired, and whispered:

"You shouldn't have taken this road just now. If it weren't for these people here, Your Majesty would have returned to the palace to rest."

Yan Fan is really a fool who is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. Concubine Shu slowly tightened her hands on her knees and had no intention of listening to what Lu'er said.

She had already let Xu Xiaoxiao do something stupid, but Yan Fan didn't make good use of such a good handle. Instead, he let those brainless guys in the Beijing Defense Camp make trouble.

Now, not only did all her plans get ruined, but she also indirectly helped the emperor get rid of the hidden danger of the Beijing Defense Camp.

I am afraid that after today, there will no longer be a Beijing Defense Camp in the capital.

The more Concubine Shu thought about it, the angrier she became. She raised her hand and rubbed her temples.

An idea came to my mind that I couldn't even believe.

Could it be that the emperor was pushing this matter forward, so he became the ultimate beneficiary?

Not only did he break her plan, he also solved the problem of the Beijing Defense Camp, and helped Mu Chen solve the rumor that he got into the Ministry of Households because of Shi Daren's talent.

Has the emperor's thoughts become so deep now?

Concubine Shu frowned slightly, unable to understand why the emperor knew about Xu Xiaoxiao's movements.

Could it be that he really can predict the future and arrange everything in advance?

…

Yan Fan was waiting for good news at this moment, but before he could get the good news, Yan Zhenghai came in panting.

"What's going on?"

Seeing his son like this, Yan Fan had a bad feeling in his heart.

"Dad," Yan Zhenghai knelt on the ground with a bang.

"What's going on?"

"Jin Ting'an showed up, and the other members of the Beijing Defense Camp, along with Lin Shan, were causing trouble in the Marquis' Mansion and were all taken away."

Yan Fan frowned, put down his teacup, and stared at Yan Zhenghai intently, "You said Lin Shan went to the Marquis' Mansion to cause trouble?"

Yan Zhenghai was a little frightened by the stare and whispered, "Yes, he has been taken away by Jin Ting'an now. Dad, you must think of a way to save him."

"Did you cause Lin Shan to appear in the Marquis' Mansion?"

Without waiting for Yan Zhenghai to respond, Yan Fan stood up angrily and kicked him.

"Why don't you use your brain? I've told you so many times not to act on your own."

"Dad, I don't know why things are like this."

Yan Zhenghai covered the place where he was kicked, feeling aggrieved, and did not dare to look at his father's gloomy and terrifying face.

He just wanted the Marquis' Mansion to fall quickly, but he didn't expect that not only did the Marquis' Mansion not fall, but the Beijing Defense Camp suffered instead.

"It's true that Madam Mu Chen went to the Shi Mansion. You have already had the matter spread out and just wait for the Emperor's attitude."

Yan Fan frowned, waved his sleeves and sat back in his chair.

"You didn't know the Emperor's attitude, yet you instigated the people of the Beijing Defense Battalion to cause trouble. How foolish is that? Now not only is the Beijing Defense Battalion gone, but you've also gotten yourself into trouble."

When Yan Fan said this, he felt his heart bleeding. He was so angry that he stood up and kicked Yan Zhenghai.

"You really want to piss me off to death. You even have the nerve to ask me to rescue the people from the Beijing Defense Camp. Do you think your father has lived too long?"

Yan Zhenghai quickly shook his head, "I didn't. Calm down, Dad. I've already silenced Li Er, so the investigation won't lead to anything in the Yan Mansion."

"That's better."

Knowing that no matter how much he said, he could not save the Beijing Defense Camp, Yan Fan looked deeply at the kneeling Yan Zhenghai.

"From today on, if you take even a single step out of this house without my permission, I will break your legs."

Yan Zhenghai nodded obediently, "I understand."

"Knock knock--" There was a rapid knock on the door.

"Come in."

The servant who came in glanced at Yan Zhenghai lying on the ground, and said as if he was not surprised: "Your Highness, the Emperor has sent someone to summon you to the palace."

Yan Fan stood up and said, "Send the young master back to his room for observation."

After saying this, he turned and left the house.

Yan Fan knew without a doubt that the emperor asked him to enter the palace simply because of the Beijing Defense Camp.

While he was thinking, he had already arrived at the gate of the mansion.

Eunuch Cao was standing beside the carriage. When he saw King Liang, he smiled and gestured for him to come in.

"King Liang, please."

"Sorry to have kept Eunuch Cao waiting for so long."

Yan Fan got on the carriage and said with a smile.

"We didn't have to wait long."

The carriage slowly drove towards the Ministry of War. Yan Fan looked puzzled after getting off the carriage.

"The Emperor is waiting for Prince Liang at the Ministry of War."

The two went to the meeting room of the Ministry of War. As soon as Yan Fan entered the room, he saw Lin Shan kneeling on the ground.

He withdrew his gaze unnoticeably and saluted respectfully to the emperor sitting at the top.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The emperor nodded lightly and asked Yan Fan to stand up.

When Lin Shan and his companions saw Yan Fan, it was as if they had seen a life-saving straw.

"I wonder why the Emperor sent me to the Ministry of War?"

【Haha, let you continue to pierce your heart.】

emperor:"……"

"The people from the Beijing Defense Camp gathered at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion to demand a replacement to take over the Beijing Defense Camp. Did King Liang know that they wanted someone to take over?"

King Liang glanced at the few people and asked in surprise, "Could it be me?"

He said this with a look of panic on his face.

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me. It is not my turn to take over the Beijing Defense Camp. General Jin is more suitable than me."

The emperor smiled and looked at Lin Shan. "Although the beneficiary of this incident is Prince Liang, I know that Prince Liang is loyal and would never instigate the Beijing Defense Camp to cause trouble."

Lin Shan stared, wanting to say something but his mouth was blocked.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking charge of this matter."

Yan Fan couldn't guess what the emperor wanted to do, so he spoke cautiously.

[Hilarious! Only the King of Liang is still loyal, but the tyrant is now really acting like a hermaphrodite.]

"It's time to make a decision for Prince Liang," the emperor said, looking at Jin Ting'an. "General Jin, tell Prince Liang what dirty water the Beijing Defense Battalion has thrown at him."

Jin Ting'an responded with a "yes" and said to Yan Fan, "The people in the Beijing Defense Camp think that Your Highness is more suitable to take over the Beijing Defense Camp than Your Highness. They are inciting the people to cause unrest and are disrespectful to the Crown Prince and the Emperor."

"Your Majesty, I know nothing about this matter."

Prince Liang lowered his eyes and said, "I beg Your Majesty to investigate this matter."
