Chapter 558 Confiscation of Household, Blessings

The joy of the New Year cannot cover up some sins. Instead, it makes some people with ulterior motives think that such a festive day is more suitable for taking action. The Wang family thought so, and the time has come for them to take action.

Concubine Wang walked back and forth in her own palace, her hands tightly clasped together, her long nails almost piercing her tender palms, her heart was as restless as a boat swaying in the wind and rain.

"Mom, aren't you tired from walking around? Sit down and take a rest."

The second prince sat and ate snacks, his mouth full of food crumbs. He never paid attention to etiquette in front of the princess, just like an ordinary boy, a little rude.

Concubine Wang looked at her son's eating manner, frowned slightly, and said, "I'm not tired, my son, please eat slowly. This way of eating is only for me to see. If others see it, they will say that you are not worthy of being the emperor."

"If I am not worthy, who is? As long as I am the emperor, no one can laugh at me. If anyone wants to laugh at me, I will let them compete with pigs for food! Let's see who can eat better than me!"

The second prince said this fiercely and took another big bite of the snack.

The noble concubine smiled a little at what she heard. She thought her son was ambitious and looked like he would become the emperor. She felt more at ease and thought that for the sake of her son, she had to take this step!

Just after Concubine Wang made up her mind, her palace was surrounded and a large group of soldiers broke in, led by the Emperor's most valued Wolf Guards!

"How dare you! What are you doing?!"

Concubine Wang was horrified, knowing that something was wrong. She was a concubine, but so many people broke into her residence, and they were wolf guards that could only be mobilized with the emperor's direct order. It seemed that something big had happened, and it was extremely unfavorable to her. She wondered if something had happened to the Wang family?

The second prince was eating a snack when he was frightened by the guards who suddenly rushed in. He choked and coughed non-stop. After finally catching his breath, his face was covered with snack crumbs and tears. He lost all his dignity as a prince. The imperial concubine was helpless and distressed. The wolf guards and the guards did not show it on the surface, but they were disdainful in their hearts, thinking that this was still a prince. He was really no better than a naughty boy on the street. Compared with the eldest prince, he was simply a world apart!

"Your Highness, by the Emperor's order, neither you nor the Second Prince are allowed to leave here. You will be under our care."

The leader said expressionlessly, and with a wave of his hand, the people behind him took custody of all the palace maids and eunuchs, and at once there were cries and screams everywhere.

"Guard? You mean custody, right? Why would the emperor issue such an order? Where is the imperial edict?! I want to see the emperor! Otherwise, you are passing on the imperial edict privately. You intend to imprison me and the second prince. Do you want to rebel?!"

Concubine Wang scolded loudly and walked over to the Second Prince, trying to comfort him.

The second prince did not become stronger because his mother came to his side, but became more fragile, and burst into tears. Immediately, some cake crumbs came out of his mouth, making Concubine Wang look even uglier.

The leader of the Wolf Guards said coldly, "My Lady Concubine, with your status, don't you know that we only take orders from His Majesty? We represent the Emperor. My Lady Concubine, just sit quietly and wait for the Emperor's decision."

"What's the fate?"

Concubine Wang was quick to sense from the words that something was wrong. She thought that she had not yet taken action, and the one who could bring her great disaster was the Wang family. And if the Wang family committed a serious crime that could implicate herself and the prince, it would be treason! Her face turned pale, this was not impossible. The Wang family had been colluding with the Black Wood Kingdom, and now the prince of the Black Wood Kingdom had rebelled. The Black Wood King was in the capital, and the Black Wood King had already sent a letter asking them, the Wang family, to help kill the Black Wood King and the Queen. Could it be that this matter had been exposed? !

"I am a concubine in the palace and I have always been well behaved. What can I do? I want to see the emperor!"

This was a test for Concubine Wang. She wanted to know what had happened so that she could analyze how to get out of her current situation. After all, she still had the Second Prince. As long as the Wang family hadn't taken action, there was room for recovery. She didn't believe that the Wang family would take action without telling her, so even if she wanted to rebel, it was not the best time.

However, the guard no longer paid any attention to Concubine Wang and just guarded the place tightly, making Concubine Wang become like a pampered bird with no freedom and could only wait in prison.

This day is a day that is deeply remembered by officials and people in the capital. A large group of troops surrounded the Wang family at lightning speed and arrested all the Wang family members, including the master and servants, who are more than 200 people. In addition, those people in the Wang family who were not in the palace were also arrested, and the shops under the name of the Wang family were also implicated. The whole capital was shocked by this.

When all the people who should be arrested in the Wang family were arrested, Concubine Wang and the Second Prince were also imprisoned in a forbidden area in the palace.

Concubine Wang also knew the reason. It was true that her family was planning a rebellion, but she didn't know what went wrong, and no one would tell her. She could only worry, and then she seemed to have aged ten years overnight. She knew that her family could not escape this time. Not to mention that their family was really colluding with the prince of the Black Wood Kingdom, this time they might be caught with solid evidence. Even if there was no evidence, with the emperor's disgust for their Wang family, he would definitely find a way to fabricate evidence. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time and would definitely not let it go. She knew this was the case, otherwise she would not have made up her mind to rebel, but she was still a step too late!

Concubine Wang thought she was too smart. She thought she had to find the right time, but the time had not come yet. However, the Wang family gave the opportunity to the other party. It was really a step late that cost her life!

Concubine Wang now only asks the emperor to spare her son and does not even ask for her own life. However, she knows that the hope is very slim. It is said that even a tiger will not eat its own cubs, but the royal family is ruthless.

At this time when people were panicking, in the Mansion of Marquis Zhongyi, Shen Zian and Su Zhi slept soundly all night and woke up naturally in the morning.

Shen Zian had just opened his eyes and looked at his wife's sleeping face for a while when Su Zhi's long eyelashes moved and slowly opened. Her eyes, as clear as water, were a little confused. Looking at his expression, he smiled, went over and kissed her forehead, smelled the faint lotus scent on her body, buried his face in her shoulders and neck, and sighed comfortably.

Su Zhi was also too lazy to get up, so the two of them chatted softly, one after another, until they woke up, then they slowly got up. After washing up, they called Lian Sheng up, went to their parents' yard, and had breakfast with their parents and brother. This was their regular morning schedule these days.

The people of the Mu family did not have the rule of not talking while eating, and they talked while eating.

The most talked about topic these days is the Wang family's affairs, so naturally they talked about this again.

"My sister is blessed. She is so lucky to help anyone she wants. Zhi'er, give some of your blessings to your brother. Just a little is enough. Well, give me two more bottles of your panacea. I want a big bottle. Tell me what herbs you want and I'll find it for you."

Mu Chengzhi joked with Su Zhi with a smile, and asked for the medicine made by Su Zhi. He knew very well how effective the medicine was. Although he knew his sister would give it to him, she only gave him one bottle each time. He was jealous, so he wanted it if he could. It really ruined his elegant demeanor.

Su Zhi said, "Okay, brother, how much do you want? Prepare the medicine bottles."

"Thank you, sister!"

Mu Chengzhi said with a smile that he felt that this kind of life was pretty good now. His sister was not dead, and although she did not marry Meng Jinliang, she married a not bad husband who seemed to be more suitable. He also had so many blessings. He did not feel so sad anymore, and he smiled more often than before, and even looked younger than before. But he still did not want to get married, and his family did not force him. He just wanted to take care of his sister for a while longer.

Madam Mu smiled and said, "You said your sister is blessed, but I say you are the lucky one, you just stretched out your hand and asked your sister for something."

Mu Chengzhi said: "Mom, my sister is so lucky. Look at her. She has a background in adopting children. Saving and helping others can also help her in the future. If it weren't for the people she once helped to deliver the letter, the Wang family wouldn't have been caught so quickly. If they continue to cause trouble, we don't know how long we have to guard against them. We have to keep the inside stable first. Now it's quiet inside, and the only thing left is the Black Wood Kingdom. If my sister can make more medicine, it will definitely be smooth sailing. My sister will have done a great deed!"

The Wang family was ransacked this time because of Su Zhi. When they were in Hebian Village, there was a maid named Xiqi in Li Po's house. She was freed because of Su Zhi. Later, Su Zhi gave her silver and let her go home. As a result, she came to the capital to live with her relatives but didn't find any. The silver in her hand was stolen, and then she was abducted into a brothel. Because she was not good-looking, she could only be a cleaning girl. As a result, she found Wang Feng taking people there to drink, and accidentally discovered that the man was from Hei Mu country.

Xiqi thought about how to benefit herself, at least to get rid of this identity, and then she thought of Su Zhi. She had seen Su Zhi when she went out on the street, and she knew her current identity. So she found Su Zhi and told her about it.

Naturally, someone followed those people, and finally when they left Beijing, a letter was found on them. It was a letter from the Wang family to Mu Qing, which confirmed the Wang family's crime of colluding with Mu Qing.

Xiqi finally got what she wanted, and she was free and had money. She went to marry a man she knew who was willing to help her and live her life there.

Su Zhi also thought that she could be blessed if she helped someone, and it seemed that she really needed to help more people in the future. However, she was worried that the more people she helped, the more trouble she would have, which was really a tangled mess.

This article cannot be written as a war article or a palace intrigue article, so I kept it simple. I will write one more chapter and it will be finished tomorrow. Because I have a lot of things to do at home recently, my promises always become broken due to accidents. I apologize again.
