"Jingfan, I just asked you if your heart is okay. What's wrong with you being like this?"
Shang Yuanshan poured out a reassuring pill and fed it into Lin Jingfan's mouth.
"Brother-in-law, you already knew it."
Shang Yuanshan nodded. "I have already sent people to investigate. I asked you to come here today to make you give up."
"Yeah." Lin Jingfan's eyes were dull at this time. He had thought that the princess was beautiful, kind, gentle and generous before. He didn't expect that she was actually like this.
The maid ran in: "Princess, Eunuch Li is here with the imperial edict."
Princess Jiaxing glared at Shang Yuanshan and took her people to receive the imperial edict.
When Princess Jiaxing heard the emperor's edict, she fainted.
"Fortunately, I brought enough medicine today." Shang Yuanshan poured out a reassuring pill and handed it to the maid beside him.
Eunuch Li continued to read. "Princess Jiaxing will be confined in the palace for a year. No one is allowed to visit her. This is my decree."
Eunuch Li handed the imperial edict to the nanny beside him and walked towards Shang Yuanshan.
"General Shang, the emperor was furious when he learned about Princess Jiaxing's affairs, and ordered you to get rid of the male favorites in Princess Jiaxing's mansion as soon as possible to avoid tarnishing the reputation of the royal family."
"I will definitely take care of this matter."
After Eunuch Li left, Shang Yuanshan asked Liu Quan to bring people into the princess's mansion. The group of people captured all the male favorites in Princess Jiaxing's backyard without any hindrance.
When Lin Jingfan saw several male favorites being carried out on stretchers, he didn't dare to look at the scene.
Lin Jingfan couldn't bear the blow and fainted.
Shang Yuanshan looked at the fainted Lin Jingfan and sighed. "Don't blame your brother-in-law for being cruel. If you don't see this with your own eyes, you will only fall deeper and deeper and miss the right person."
Shang Yuanshan handed Lin Jingfan over to the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion. "Send the third young master back to the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Yes." The guard took the order and took Lin Jingfan away.
All the male favorites in Princess Jiaxing's mansion were taken away through the back door. At the same time, the mansion was guarded by the Imperial Guards and no one was allowed to enter or leave.
The people knew that Shang Yuanshan was close to the princess's palace, but not long after they entered, they found that the place was guarded by the Royal Guards, who drove away all the people.
Those male favorites were also secretly transported away in horse-drawn carriages. The people could only be curious and had no idea about the situation in the princess's mansion.
It was today that Shang Yuanshan's reputation spread, and he visited three mansions today.
I heard that the wife of Marquis Guojun is divorcing Marquis Guojun.
Governor Wang's youngest son died tragically and his wife was divorced.
Now the princess's mansion is still guarded by the royal guards, and no one is allowed to enter or leave.
Now Shang Yuanshan really made people terrified.
All the officials were trembling with fear, fearing that Shang Yuanshan would come knocking on their door.
"Master Liu, please send the people back first. It's already past noon. I have to go back to the mansion to have a meal and rest. The rest will be sent tomorrow."
"General, what about Wanhetang?"
"Don't worry, Lord Liu. This general will not allow his entire family to be executed."
Liu Quan didn't dare to say anything more and left with his men.
Shang Yuanshan carried Shang Yangyang, who was crying with hunger, back to the mansion.
"Madam, I'm hungry."
Lin Siqing rolled her eyes at Shang Yuanshan. "I've already told you guys that you can do whatever you want to her, but Yangyang is still young."
[Mom is hungry, Mom, please don’t talk about Daddy, Daddy is so awesome today, Yangyang is hungry~~~]
Shang Yangyang was so hungry that he could not stand it any longer.
Lin Siqing was amused by Shang Yangyang's cute appearance, but she did not slow down her pace. She quickly carried Shang Yangyang back to the room to feed her.
At this time, it was Tingshuang Inn in the capital.
"Mother, I have sent someone to clean up the old house."
"Let them clean up as soon as possible. This inn is too noisy and I can't sleep well at all."
"I have already given the order to have them clean up the old house within three days."
"good."
"Mother, I heard today that my eldest brother caused a big commotion in the capital."
Li sneered: "Well, I just heard someone say that in the lobby of the inn. I think he was making his last struggle before death."
Shang Wanning also had a triumphant look on his face: "That must be the case."
"Master, someone is looking for you outside." The servant was running with sweat all over his forehead.
"Who is it?"
"He said he was from the Ministry of Revenue."
"The Ministry of Revenue?" Shang Wanning ran down upon hearing this. Seeing the person coming, he was even more confused: "Brother Wang, why are you here?"
Wang He: "Minister Shang, why are you absent from work today without reason?"
"I sent someone to the Ministry of Revenue to ask for leave."
"The Minister has not received your leave application."
Shang Wanning: "Wasn't it enough to just say it before?"
"Minister Shang, everyone who wants to take a leave must submit a written document, and can only take a leave after the Shangshu signs and agrees.
The Minister of Shang has said that if Minister Shang does not want to go back to work today, he can ask the Emperor to let you resign and go home to recuperate. "
Shang Wanning frowned. What happened to Minister Xie today? He was not the same as before.
"Brother Wang, I'll go back to the Ministry of Revenue right away." Shang Wanning did not dare to delay for a moment and ran back to the Ministry of Revenue.
As soon as I arrived, I received various documents.
"Minister Shang, the Minister has ordered that you cannot leave until you finish processing these official documents today."
Shang Wanning looked very embarrassed holding the pile of documents.
His ears were buzzing and he couldn't understand why it turned out like this.
Colleagues passing by pointed at him.
Minister Xie, who had always been very polite to him, also lost his temper and scolded him.
Shang Wanning couldn't figure out why this happened, so he sat there absent-mindedly looking through official documents.
A drop of ink spread on the paper, but he didn't care at all.
Until the next day, this was not a court meeting, only the Shangshu and other officials attended the court.
Other officials also came to the Ministry of Revenue early because of the Shangshu’s anger yesterday.
As soon as I arrived at the Ministry of Revenue, I saw Shang Wanning with an untidy beard, busy processing official documents.
Zhang Hanting looked at Shang Wanning with disdain, and he did not lower his voice: "Shang Wanning is also stupid. Why does he want to separate from General Shang and sign a letter of severance?"
Wang He continued, "But I heard that General Shang angered the emperor. It seems that during the previous court meeting, the emperor also took his anger out on Minister Shang because of General Shang.
Moreover, I heard that General Shang was ordered to investigate the matter of Wanhetang this time. If he fails to find out the truth, his entire family will be executed."
Zhang Hanting sneered, "He is too impatient. General Shang was just found to be poisoned, and the emperor ordered an investigation into Wanhetang, but he couldn't wait to separate the family and break off relations. Now everyone in the capital is saying that he is an ungrateful person.
And you don't know, General Shang saved our Shangshu before. You think Shangshu can give this ungrateful man a good face. Does he think he got the position of the minister by his own ability? "
Wang He suddenly realized. "So that's how it is. He is really stupid. How could General Shang be willing to let his family be buried with him? He will definitely cut off the relationship himself. This way Shang Wanning won't have such a bad reputation, and the Minister will also take care of him out of General Shang's kindness."
Zhang Hanting nodded repeatedly, "That's why I say he's stupid."
The two men spoke loudly, and Shang Wanning certainly heard what they said.
He no longer had the energy to refute Zhang Hanting's words. He had thought things through after hearing these words. He was too impatient yesterday. "But why didn't he take the initiative to propose breaking off the relationship?"
At this moment, Shang Wanning was complaining to Shang Yuanshan. He threw down the pen in his hand and ran out of the Ministry of Revenue.
