Feng Huaiji returned to the imperial study in the afternoon to report, "Your Majesty, Prince Gao Xin has been detained and is awaiting interrogation."

The situation has developed to this point. Jiaojiao will not have to attend the banquet tomorrow. No matter what plan Princess Pingyang had, it has all gone to waste.

"In that case, I will leave it to you to judge. I believe you will give me a satisfactory answer."

Regardless of whether what Yan Shuang said was true or not, all the emperor wanted was an opportunity to deal with King Gao Xin.

Besides, Yan Shuang wasn't brave enough to lie to him, and the Feng brothers were not fools.

"yes."

"Can you think of anyone who looks like me?" the emperor asked before Feng Huaiji left.

"Perhaps I will remember it in two days."

Now is not a good time for Jiaojiao to recognize her relatives, and Feng Huaiji does not intend to disrupt Yu Wu's plan.

"Go away." The emperor waved his hand.

"I'll take my leave."

Feng Huaiji took the carriage back to the mansion and asked Xuan Qing outside, "Did you get the cakes I asked you to get?"

"Yes."

Feng Huaiji got off the carriage with cakes and walked towards Qinghui Courtyard.

After entering the courtyard, the servants went to report to Yingyue.

Zhu Xuan poured tea for Feng Huaiji, "The young lady is making incense, Zhu Ling has gone to find the young lady, please wait a moment, Second Master."

"The young lady only likes to drink scented tea, so there is only scented tea in the courtyard."

After saying this, Zhuxuan stepped back.

Feng Huaiji nodded and sat in the yard waiting.

After a while, Yingyue came out of the house and trotted to Feng Huaiji, her eyes shining, "Second brother, why are you here? Aren't you on duty today?"

It was the first time he came to the courtyard to see her.

Looking at the little girl running towards him, Feng Huaiji raised the corner of his lips and pointed to the oil paper bag on the table, "The emperor asked me to do other things, so I got off work a little early. Tianzhai Pavilion has a new kind of shortbread, so I brought it for you to try."

He does look somewhat like the emperor.

"Thank you, second brother."

"You don't have to go to the poetry banquet at Prince Gaoxin's mansion tomorrow."

"Hmm? Why?"

"Prince Gao Xin's mansion was ransacked."

"Did you copy it?" Yingyue was surprised for a moment.

"Well, the emperor sent me to do this today."

"What crime did they commit?" Since the royal family's property was searched, the crime they committed must have been serious.

"Corruption and frame-up. The emperor must have wanted to get rid of Prince Gao Xin's palace for a long time." Feng Huaiji slowly explained to her the whole story.

Yingyue watched him drinking the scented tea and asked, "Is it delicious? If you are not used to it, I will ask someone to get a box of Maojian from my father."

He never drank scented tea in the carriage before.

"It tastes good, I'm used to it."

"Okay." Yingyue opened the package of shortbread by herself, "Second brother, have you eaten it?"

"without."

"Will you eat then? Or have dinner here tonight?"

"Okay." Seeing that she wanted to ask again, Feng Huaiji added, "All is fine."

"How do you know what I want to ask?"

"Your doubts are written all over your face, which is easy to understand. Were you making incense just now?"

"Yes, I am also researching new sachets. Do you want some, brother? There are some for invigorating or calming the nerves."

"If you give it to me, I will."

"Of course, I'll think about which one I should choose for you." Yingyue thought for a while, "Forget it, just give me one of each, you can use whichever one you like."

"Then I won't be polite. Do you usually have dinner alone?"

"Occasionally I would go to my parents' courtyard to accompany them. Most of the time, Ah Qi would come to accompany me. But tonight, Ah Qi said he wanted to go to Fifth Brother's courtyard and sleep with him at night."

"He hasn't been as clingy to me as before recently, but that's fine too, let Fifth Brother deal with him. At his age, he has too much energy."

Feng Huaiji raised the corners of his lips slightly.

It’s pretty good, Lao Wu is still quite useful.

The rope was tied a little tight. Yingyue pondered for a while before giving up and pushed the oil paper bag in front of Feng Huaiji, "Second brother, untie it. I can't untie it."
