Qinghu Cottage
"Wan'er!"
"Wan'er!"
"Something big has happened!"
A fiery red figure riding a horse appeared at the door of Qinghu Cottage.
She got off the horse with a nimble figure and ran quickly into the mansion.
As she ran quickly, the excited voice reached the ears of the woman writing under the bridge.
The woman was wearing a white dress, with no makeup on, and her black hair hanging down like a waterfall. She was extremely beautiful.
Her expression was cold and she ignored the sounds coming from her. Her fair hands were holding a brush and writing something.
If Xiao Chen were here, he would definitely be amazed.
Because the current Nangong Wan is different from the Nangong Wan that night who wore a phoenix crown and a bright red wedding dress.
If Nangong Wan was extremely graceful at that time, she would be a beautiful and beautiful woman in the world.
At this moment, Nangong Wan is simple, elegant and aloof, like a fairy who is detached from the world.
She is Nangong Wan.
Ever since what happened that night, she didn't have the face to return to Minister Nangong's Mansion. Instead, she bought an elegant little house nearby and prepared for the rest of her life.
"Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen has finally been punished!"
"He was sentenced to three years of house arrest and a three-year salary fine. Even the Ye family was implicated."
When she heard the word "Xiao Chen", Nangong Wan's eyes moved slightly, and she was finally moved.
He looked up at the fiery red figure coming from a distance.
And in her mind, she kept thinking about what happened that night.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was like a nightmare lingering in her heart, unable to be shaken off.
"Wan'er, Wan'er, don't cry!!"
"I can't help but mention him!"
"Look at you, why do you cry when I mention him?"
The man's name was Tang Yao, and he was a constable in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
She and Nangong Wan were close friends, and when she heard the news, she came to tell her with the intention of venting her anger.
But in an instant, he saw Nangong Wansu lying face down, pale and with tears rolling down like water, and he panicked.
....
On the other hand, Xiao Chen
"Your Highness, Prince Ye has arrived!"
Xiao Chen was lying lazily on the recliner. At this time, he saw Ye Andu in a white robe walking towards him from a distance.
There was a hint of anxiety on his face.
Ye An didn't even bother to greet Xiao Chen, and walked up to him and said urgently:
"Cousin, something big happened in the court!!"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen frowned and quickly sat up and asked:
"Don't panic."
"What big thing happened?"
Ye Andu had a worried look on his face and said, "After your incident happened, it spread all over the capital."
"Today, Nangong Wan's father just submitted a memorial to the court impeaching you and requesting His Majesty to cancel the engagement between the Crown Prince and Nangong Wan."
"They said that the Nangong family had no chance of marrying into the royal family."
"Grandpa went up to argue with him, and when he couldn't win, he started fighting."
"His Majesty was furious and dismissed Grandpa from his post as Minister of War, forcing him to retire and return home."
"And they said they would sentence you to exile."
The moment he heard the news, Xiao Chen sat up straight, his eyes full of disbelief.
A few days ago, when he came out, he said that Huang Jin was fine and that he was pardoned because of the prophecy made by old man Tianji.
It has nothing to do with the Ye family at all.
How come I was greeted with such tragic news right after returning from my annual leave?
Xiao Chen frowned and looked at Ye Andu, motioning him to continue.
Ye Andu paused and continued:
"When my aunt heard that my father was retiring and you were going to be exiled, she took off her hairpin and pleaded guilty. She knelt in front of the Qianyuan Palace for three days and three nights, but she couldn't get His Majesty to relent."
"I don't know why, but Nangong Yi wrote to His Majesty again, saying that His Highness had already been punished and that he would not pursue the matter any further. He only requested that the engagement between the Crown Prince and Nangong Wan be dissolved."
"Then His Majesty agreed."
"Not only will Grandpa lose his position as Minister of War, but many of the Ye family's officials in the Ministry of War will also be dismissed."
"Cousin, we are seriously injured this time!"
After Ye Andu finished speaking, Xiao Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
All the high-ranking officials in the court are shrewd people. As long as his punishment remains unchanged, they are just acting!
You have to know that his punishment has been decided long ago and it cannot be changed.
This was obviously a big show, all for the sake of the royal family's reputation.
However, Xiao Chen had too little information and was unable to judge what had happened in the past two days, which led to the Ye family giving away such a huge amount of benefits.
"It seems that we need to find a way to build our own power!"
Xiao Chen murmured.
Such a big thing happened in the court, but he only found out about it now. He is really too passive!
If Ye Andu hadn't come to tell him, he would probably have to wait two days to know the result.
Compared to the other princes...
Too slow!
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen looked up at Ye Andu, and seeing his frown, he said speechlessly: "What did grandpa say?"
This guy grew up in the army and obviously had never seen what the court was like. He thought something big had really happened.
"Grandpa didn't say anything, he just asked me to tell you."
"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!"
Ye An was a little confused and asked: "Cousin, what does grandpa mean by this?"
When Xiao Chen heard these eight words, he instantly understood what the old man meant.
His thoughts were exactly the same as what Lu Hongluan told him the night before.
Both of them were telling Xiao Chen that he needed to keep a low profile.
"It seems that this prophecy of heaven is indeed true."
