Chapter 167: Not only good, but also very good
Mrs. Xie Hou was not only unhappy, but also very upset.
Because, in this strategy of grafting, she followed Xie Yingmian's steps in almost every step.
Including spending a lot of money to buy good wine to go to see Mrs. Chen, pretending to be drunk and telling the truth, etc.
Every step and every thing was within Xie Yingmian's calculations.
During the execution, she repeatedly doubted whether Xie Yingmian's plan would work.
Facts have proved that Xie Yingmian's plan is not only effective, but also very effective.
Because it was too good, Lady Xie Hou was even more upset.
The further Xie Yingmian walked, the more horrified she felt.
The thought of killing Xie Yingmian burned like a raging fire, getting stronger and stronger.
Lady Xie Hou wished she could strangle Xie Yingmian to death immediately.
However,
Xie Yingmian, who planned the entire incident, didn't care what Lady Xie thought.
If Lady Xie wants to kill her, she must have the ability.
If you don't have the ability, she will kill you.
…
Over there, Shen Tingsi.
Shen Tingsi brought the blood letter into the palace and urgently met with the emperor.
The emperor was shocked when he saw the blood letter.
Although the Battle of Dead Man's Ridge resulted in the loss of 3,000 Longyuan soldiers and a great general, overall, this battle was a tragic but great victory, extremely heroic and classic, worthy of being recorded in history.
This was a battle that took place during his administration.
He also personally awarded the award.
If it is true as written in the blood letter, that the entire Battle of Dead Man's Ridge was a conspiracy from beginning to end, then it would be equivalent to him, the emperor, being manipulated in the palm of someone's hand.
The emperor was very angry.
After his anger, he gradually calmed down.
If the truth about Dead Man's Ridge is revealed, it means that he has to admit to the people of the world that his judgment was wrong.
The emperor's first thought was that the matter should end here and there was no need to investigate further.
Shen Tingsi guessed what the emperor meant.
He told the truth that the blood letter had been written by many people, and there were countless people watching the murder trial in Haitangyuan, so this matter could not be concealed.
The emperor became even more angry.
He was angry, but only for a moment.
no way.
Although he is the ruler of the world, the world is not ruled by him alone.
If he arouses public anger, someone will take advantage of this wave of public anger to provoke conflict.
Especially when it comes to the tragic deaths of 3,000 Longyuan soldiers.
The case has been leaked. If it is concealed and not dealt with, it will discourage the soldiers.
This is a fatal threat to an emperor.
Therefore, the emperor had no choice but to order a thorough investigation.
The emperor learned that the blood letter was presented to Yu Lingye by Xiao Qingyan, and that Xiao Qingyan died in the Xie family, and was suspected of having died at the hands of Xie Yingmian and Wen Juexia.
The anger he was holding in his heart fell on Xie Yingmian and Wen Juexia.
The emperor ordered,
Xie Yingmian and Wen Juexia were imprisoned in Prince Ling's mansion and were not allowed to leave without an imperial decree until the case was concluded.
You can sit at home and something bad may happen to you.
Xie Yingmian was still thinking about renovating the Full Moon Inn and getting the relics of the original owner's mother.
Once the confinement order was issued, she could not go anywhere and could only spend the winter in Prince Ling's mansion.
The weather is getting colder day by day.
The sky is cold and the ground is cracked, and water turns into ice.
Xie Yingmian is afraid of the cold.
When the weather turned colder, she became even less willing to go out.
I stay in my room all day studying various delicacies.
The moment she reproduces the delicious food is the busiest moment in Tanyue Courtyard.
Wen Juexia, who had regained her vitality, and the three maids Yumozuo, Zhuyue, and Wenge; Xiao Lingxi, who had been running to Prince Ling's mansion every few days under the pretext of collaborating with Xie Yingmian on Tiger-Tiger Pills; Xiao Kui, who had been seeking food that Chen Tingsi could eat; and Tu Bufan, who had come uninvited because he had a sweet tooth...
Every time Xie Yingmian’s new dish comes out of the pot, they will rush over to try to be the first to taste it.
Xiao Kui is the best at Qinggong and is small in stature, so he always takes first place.
Tu Bufan’s kung fu is not bad either, only slightly worse than Xiaokui’s, and he was very satisfied after taking the second bite.
Others can also eat some.
The only one who didn't fight or compete was Yu Lingye, whose bowl was empty every time he went to his place.
Yu Lingye had some complaints about this.
Xie Yingmian didn't know why Yu Lingye was angry at first.
After Fu Mo's guidance,
She then realized that Yu Lingye was too disdainful to fight for the food because of his status, but he was very interested in the food and would only be upset when he couldn't eat it.
In order to cling to the financial backer, Xie Yingmian always gave Yu Lingye some food first.
From being the last in the class to being the first for eternity, this made Yu Lingye happy.
The Dead Man's Ridge case happened a long time ago, so it is not easy to investigate.
Until the case is closed, Xie Yingmian and Wen Juexia cannot leave Prince Ling's Mansion.
In a blink of an eye, it’s the winter solstice.
The winter solstice.
Many dumplings were prepared in the kitchen.
Xie Yingmian prepared various hot pot ingredients and even replicated the beef tallow base.
Just as it was afternoon, Xiaokui came here following the smell.
He did not come alone this time, but brought Shen Tingsi with him.
This was the first time Xie Yingmian saw Shen Tingsi after Madam Xie’s birthday banquet.
Xiao Kehan's case involved countless court ministers and also involved the secrets of the harem.
The case is becoming more and more complicated, and the more we investigate, the more frightening it becomes.
The entire burden fell on Shen Tingsi, and he looked noticeably more haggard these days.
Xiao Kui said with a smile, "My Lord, you haven't had a rest for nearly a month. Today is the Winter Solstice, so I forced you to rest for a few hours and brought you here to have some fun."
"We didn't come empty-handed this time."
“It’s a gift.”
Xiao Kui handed the gift to Xie Yingmian.
Fu Mo shuddered with fear.
God knows what kind of perverted things this pervert Xiao Kui will send.
He caught the gift brought by Xiaokui before Xie Yingmian.
After opening the gift, there was no perverted thing as expected, but rolls of meat.
The meat is presented in beautiful curls, red and white, and looks very appetizing.
Xiao Kui said, "I followed Sister Meiren's instructions and froze the meat, then cut it into super thin slices. I actually made meat rolls, which are perfect for hot pot."
Fu Mo's forehead twitched several times.
He looked at the meat in his hand, then looked at Xiaokui, and asked uncertainly, "Then can you tell me what kind of meat this is?"
Xiao Kui blinked her eyes and said, "What kind of meat could there be in the Six Punishments Department? Of course it's the meat of death row prisoners."
"I specifically picked some that were both fat and lean. They must taste good."
Fu Mo's face turned green.
"This is, human flesh? Ugh..."
Fu Mo spit first as a sign of respect.
Xie Yingmian was speechless: "You can't even tell the difference between human flesh and mutton?"
Fu Mo: "How can a death row inmate be a sheep?"
Xiao Kui tilted her neck and said, "Why can't the death row prisoner be a sheep? The sheep's name is Death Row Prisoner, and I was the one who gave it the name."
Fu Mo:?
What kind person would name a sheep after a death row prisoner?
After dark.
The hot pot is ready and just waiting to be cooked.
The pot is a small copper pot, and when the water boils, it makes a sizzling sound.
Xie Yingmian placed the slices of meat in the copper pot.
The fragrance wafted out quickly.
She saw that the mutton roll was cooked and picked up a piece with chopsticks.
Before she put it in her mouth, Shen Tingsi spoke: "There is bad news."
Xie Yingmian: ...
Did she have to tell her this bad news when she was eating meat?
