"The entire Prince Ning's Mansion?"
Xia Yu almost laughed out of anger.
"Involved?"
In the mind of Prince Ning Xia Yu, there are only three real masters in the entire Prince Ning's Mansion.
Both of them are in this imperial prison, and the younger one is being held hostage in the palace!
Who else could she implicate?
Besides her, there is also their Princess Xiaoxian in Prince Ning's Mansion. What do the others have to do with him, Xia Yu?
Xia Yu, who has lived a new life, knows clearly that he only wants to stand on the top with her in this life, and no one else is worthy!
It's just that in his previous life, he might have been too cold to her, so she would think that he wanted to divorce her.
Xia Yu's face was slightly cold: "Don't even think about divorce."
"You won't divorce me?" Shen Yuyao frowned. "Then why did you risk your life to enter this imperial prison?"
Both Xu Yunxuan and Ling Xiangxiang had told Shen Yuyao that the current Xia Yu and the former Prince Ning were clearly two different people.
In the past, Shen Yuyao didn’t even have much time to see Xia Yu, so her feelings were not very deep.
Today Xia Yu came in disguise. Shen Yuyao couldn't see the expression on Xia Yu's face and could only tell it was him through his eyes and voice.
Shen Yuyao suddenly felt that Prince Ning was indeed completely different from before.
But she couldn't figure out what the difference was.
When Shen Yuyao thought about how she had just mistakenly recognized Xia Yu and called him "dad", her expression became a little resentful.
Xia Yu, under the mask, looked at Shen Yuyao at this time. His expression changed several times and he found it interesting. He also remembered that she had called him daddy just now, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
"I came here to let you,"
Xia Yu originally wanted to say that it was because he just wanted to see her, as it had been almost a year since they last met.
His daily thoughts of her grew like weeds.
But as soon as the words came out, they changed.
"Don't be afraid!"
Afraid?
Shen Yuyao sneered from the bottom of her heart, "Are you afraid? Will I come in again?"
Shen Yuyao has always believed that what Xia Xiaoxian said was true, and that Anajji would become the prince's concubine in the future, so the emperor would not kill Anajji, nor would he vent his anger on herself.
Now, he just put her in prison to vent his anger.
Just now, Xia Yu said that he went into the palace last night and met Ling Xiangxiang.
"Is there any news from Xiangxiang?"
Shen Yuyao suddenly remembered the scene in Yong'an Palace, and her face turned slightly red. "You..."
Xia Yu was talking about sneaking into the palace at night. Could it be the same as the one in Yong'an Palace? Did he sneak into Yongning Palace wearing eunuch clothes?
Wasn't Concubine Li in Yongning Palace once the apple of Prince Ning's eye?
Are they like those two people in Yong'an Palace?
audacious in the extreme.
“Tsk…tsk…”
The more Shen Yuyao thought about it, the redder her face became, even to her ears.
"Ling Xiangxiang..."
Seeing Shen Yuyao blushing, Xia Yu felt that his name was too intimate and could easily arouse people's imagination, so he said seriously:
"Empress Li asked me to tell you that the Emperor doesn't really blame you for alarming the Eastern Palace. It's about the imperial examination fraud case, and your conclusion... the Emperor is not satisfied!"
Shen Yuyao had also guessed that the imperial examination cheating case she reported might disappoint the emperor, but she never expected that she would be convicted for it.
Shen Yuyao handled the imperial examination cheating case impartially!
The imperial examination this spring in the Great Xia Dynasty was composed of an examination room discipline inspection system, a marking and grading system, and a comprehensive management system.
There are invigilators, supervisors, inspectors and patrol officers in the examination hall.
The marking process involves an examiner, a co-examiner, an examiner who collects and holds the examination papers, a sealing officer, a transcriber, and a reading officer.
In collaboration, there are officials in charge of supervision, officials who print papers, officials who receive papers and officials who provide supplies.
Including one chief examiner and three deputy examiners, the total number of officials participating in this imperial examination reached hundreds, including more than twenty officials of the third rank and above.
Shen Yuyao checked carefully one by one and found nothing suspicious.
Among the officials, there are officials from both the north and the south. If there was cheating, it would be impossible to bribe more than 20 officials from the north and the south.
Therefore, Shen Yuyao wrote in the closing statement of the imperial examination cheating case that there was no cheating in this year's imperial examination.
In the assassination case of Anaj, those who helped Anaj hide her identity and avoid the palace examination were all old people from the previous dynasty.
There were palace eunuchs who were responsible for examining Anajji's body, and Yang, the editor of the Hanlin Academy who changed Anajji's identity. The highest official position among them was only the seventh rank.
Now these people have been taken to the imperial prison by Shen Yuyao, and they are just waiting for the emperor's order on how to sentence them.
Shen Yuyao told Xia Yu in detail about the two cases she was responsible for investigating.
"Now that the northern scholars have gathered together to cause trouble, the emperor must give an explanation..."
Xia Yu knew that the reason why the emperor asked Shen Yuyao to investigate the case was that Shen Yuyao had no connection with the officials in the court, and even had no contact with the concubines in the harem.
What Shen Yuyao found out must be the truth of the case, but the truth turned out to be that no one cheated.
No one cheats!
With such a result, the emperor probably had not yet figured out how to announce it to the world, so he temporarily detained Shen Yuyao, not really intending to punish her.
"The emperor should issue an edict soon to pardon you." Xia Yu said softly, "I will also take care of things in this prison so that you won't suffer too much!"
"Wait..." Shen Yuyao suddenly realized: "Most of the northern candidates participating in this year's imperial examination are from the princes' fiefdoms!"
Shen Yuyao suddenly remembered that when she checked the information of the students who participated in the imperial examination this spring, she found that more than 80% of them were from the fiefdom of King Ning.
Only then did she understand why she was suddenly sent to the imperial prison.
Shen Yuyao glanced at Xia Yu sideways. It was still unclear who had implicated whom.
Xia Yu was shocked. His father was trying to scare the enemy!
The one who was knocked was Princess Ning, but the one who was shocked was Prince Ning.
Everyone knows that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty favors the prince, but few people know how serious this favoritism is.
The emperor has a large number of legitimate sons, illegitimate sons, and adopted sons, all of whom serve the crown prince. If anyone gets in the way of the crown prince, the emperor will show no mercy.
The imperial examinations were usually held every three years in the Great Xia Dynasty. However, because the crown prince suggested that the court lacked talented people, the emperor temporarily changed the examinations to be held once a year.
The Daxia Dynasty's officialdom was purged twice last year, with nearly 10,000 people executed. There must be a shortage of people now.
However, the emperor's suspicion came back again!
It's a pretty serious offense.
My father actually thought that these northern scholars were causing trouble because it was him, Prince Ning Xia Yu, who was secretly stirring up trouble!
Alas, with such a paranoid and terminally ill emperor, the princes' lives may be even more difficult than those of the officials.
Xia Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Fortunately, Shen Yuyao was attentive and noted the students' origins when reviewing their information. Now that the problem was known, Prince Ning could find a way to deal with it.
Prince Ning and Princess Ning, who implicated whom?
It’s hard to say.
Xia Yu said embarrassedly: "Princess, you suffer."
Xia Yu was just about to say a few words to comfort Shen Yuyao when the door of the secret room opened.
