Chapter 1302: Now that we are here, let’s go together
After leaving the Dali Temple, Su Laosan and Su San's wife went straight back to the Princess's Mansion.
Although they came back from the farm in a hurry, they couldn't leave Xiao Shisi at the farm, right?
So, Little Fourteen was escorted by his wet nurse and several servants back to the princess's mansion first.
When Su Laosan and his wife returned to the Princess's Mansion, they learned that something had happened to Xia Siya's marriage.
Su Laosan immediately went to the Xia family to help.
Da Pan and Er Pan were not suppressed by Old Lady Su, and they signed up to go together very enthusiastically.
Moreover, they tacitly concealed the fact that Old Lady Su did not allow them to go.
So, Su Laosan hurried over with his two nephews.
"Third brother, why are you back from the farm? Where is your wife?" asked Old Mrs. Su.
"Mother, Manniang and Xiaoshisi are back too."
After Su Lao San finished speaking, he looked at everyone.
"Are you going to the Xia family? Perfect, I'll go too! If I don't punch that Bai brat a few times, he'll think the Xia and Su families are easy to bully!"
"That's right..." Erpan immediately showed his fist.
Da Pan didn't show his fist, but his face was so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out of it.
Especially when I saw Xia Siya’s red and swollen eyes, and her clenched fists making a crackling sound.
Mrs. Su's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly and calmly took a few steps to block Da Pan's gaze from looking at Xia Siya.
"Since we're here, let's go together." Old Man Su said, "There's no time to waste, let's go!"
"good!"
"good……"
After everyone finished speaking, they rushed straight to Bai Mansion with eagerness.

Imperial study.
As soon as the old general saw Emperor Tianxi, he knelt down and apologized.
"Your Majesty, I am guilty!" The old general cried out with tears in his eyes, "I failed to educate my daughter properly, causing her to commit a heinous crime. I beg Your Majesty to punish me!"
"Your Majesty, please punish me!"
Yang Wei and Yang Wu knelt behind the old general and spoke in unison.
After the father and his two sons finished speaking, they all bowed their heads to the ground, as if waiting for the emperor to punish them.
Emperor Tianxi was stunned.
What does this mean?
You know, the old general only has two daughters.
Emperor Tianxi's eyes flashed, but his face remained expressionless.
Then he waved his hand.
Eunuch Liu immediately retreated with his shoulders hunched, closed the door of the imperial study, and stood guard at the door himself.
But I was wondering in my heart what had happened.
"Father-in-law, please stand up quickly." Emperor Tianxi strode over, holding out his hands as if to help the old general up, saying, "Whatever it is, we, father-in-law and son-in-law, can talk slowly."
The old general naturally wouldn't get up.
"I, your Majesty, am ashamed to face you. I deserve to die. I am ashamed to see the late emperor. I have failed to live up to his trust... wuwu..."
As the old general spoke, he suddenly burst into tears and cried loudly.
While crying, she said, "Back then, my eldest daughter Yang Ning met with misfortune and became ill with a leg disease, and her marriage was canceled..."
The veteran general recounted what happened that year in detail, detailing every detail of the military operation.
However, the old general did not remove Yang Ning, but bluntly said that everything Mother Wu did was because Yang Ning had resentment in her heart.
"Your Majesty, if it weren't for that evil girl, how could a servant have the guts to do such a wicked thing? If it weren't for your second daughter, who is so kindhearted and considerate of her siblings, how could she have deceived Your Majesty and committed such a crime that deserves death? It's all your fault for not raising your daughter properly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."
Emperor Tianxi: “…”
The hand that was extended was retracted.
He walked back to the imperial desk silently and sat down.
Originally, Emperor Tianxi was so happy that he didn't know how to get the jade seal back.
Moreover, the cancerous Prince Rong can be completely eradicated, which makes Emperor Tianxi even happier.
So, when he heard that the old general wanted to see him, he immediately had someone call him in happily.
Unexpectedly, the old general brought him such news.
Yang Wei and Yang Wu knelt on the ground, their hearts in their throats.
You know, the eldest sister had the intention of harming the emperor and the queen, and the second sister took the blame and committed the crime of deceiving the emperor.
The two aunts of the Yang family have committed serious crimes. Can the Yang family escape?
"Your Majesty, Commander Lu requests an audience!"
Eunuch Liu's cautious voice came from outside the door.
Emperor Tianxi glanced at the Yang family father and son kneeling on the ground and said loudly: "Announce!"
The commander of the Imperial Guards, Lu Yuan, strode in with a box in his hand.
"Your Majesty!" Commander Lu knelt and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, all the family members of Prince Rong's Mansion have been detained, but..."
Commander Lu paused, then continued, "Prince Rong and the Crown Prince are nowhere to be found. I found several letters between Prince Rong and Northern Qi in the room of one of his staff members..."
Commander Lu said this as he held the box above his head with both hands.
Eunuch Liu immediately stepped forward and took the box.
The old general's heart moved.
letter?
Yes! It’s a letter!
The old general suddenly remembered where he had seen the handwriting on the note that Yang Ning took out.
——It’s at Prince Rong’s Mansion.
That year, on the birthday of the old princess of Prince Rong's Mansion, he went to the banquet. Because he drank a few too many glasses, he took the wrong road and entered a room.
It was on the table in that room that I saw a few crooked words written on a piece of white paper.
He laughed in a daze at the time, wondering which beginner's handwriting had written these words. They were so ugly.
"Your Majesty, the witchcraft case back then was probably the work of Prince Rong!" said the old general.
"What do you mean?" asked Emperor Tianxi.
"In reply to the emperor, I once saw a piece of large characters with the same handwriting as those on the two slips of paper in Prince Rong's Mansion," said the old general.
Emperor Tianxi: “…”
It turned out that Prince Rong had harbored rebellious intentions many years ago.
And, took action.
Emperor Tianxi closed his eyes.
He killed King Rui, but left King Rong alive.
Emperor Tianxi thought about this and thought about Prince Ning and Prince Cheng'en...
Could it be that the power he gave was too great, which made some people greedy?
"Your Majesty, the Empress requests an audience."
The respectful voice of the young eunuch came from outside the door.
"Announce!" Emperor Tianxi said loudly.
After saying that, he glanced at the old general and the Yang Wei brothers again.
The Queen was dressed in a plain white dress, without any makeup or hairpins or jewelry, and she walked in slowly.
With the entry of the Queen, the entire imperial study seemed to be filled with a hazy light.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." The Queen said, kneeling down.
When Emperor Tianxi saw the way his queen was dressed, he guessed the queen's purpose.
"No need to be polite, just stand up." Emperor Tianxi said.
"I am guilty and dare not stand up." The Queen said calmly.
Emperor Tianxi sighed secretly in his heart.
