Chapter 121 Qian Fanji uncovers the secrets of the Yu family
Sang Rui pursed his lips, a little flustered for a moment: "But... that fat guy said Beili is the Beili of the military commanders, not the Beili of the emperor."
"Your Majesty, I guarantee with my life that Senior Sister will never say such a thing." Although Master Zhang was not present at the time, that kid would never say such a thing.
The dean is never wrong in judging people!
"I did say that..." Sang Rui retorted, realizing belatedly that something was wrong: "What senior sister?"
"Ye Qianning is the dean's personal disciple. I and other outer disciples are not as high-ranking as her, so we should call her Senior Sister." Master Zhang said.
Sang Rui was completely dumbfounded when he heard this. The fat guy was the dean's direct disciple?
Master Zhang's senior sister? Doesn't that mean she's twice as senior as him?
"Seventh Brother, if the news of your speech at the academy gets out, do you know how the world will view the royal family?" Emperor Beili raised his eyebrows.
"I am not wrong." Sang Rui still didn't know the pros and cons of the matter.
Emperor Beili's expression darkened. "It seems I have been too indulgent towards you in the past."
"Father..."
"Master Zhang, the Seventh Prince's crime in this matter is so great that he should be expelled from the academy."
"Yes." Master Zhang responded.
"Father?" Sang Rui was completely shocked. Those who were expelled from Loushan Academy would no longer be able to attend school and would be ridiculed by everyone.
My father dotes on him so much, how could he not care about his future at all?
"You don't need to say more. From now on, you will move to Xihuayuan and reflect on your mistakes. When you realize where you went wrong today, you can come to see me again." Emperor Beili sighed secretly. He was so disappointed.
Sang Rui wanted to refute, but when he met his father's gaze, he dared not speak again. His father had never looked at him like that before. Was he going to be like Sang Zhi in the future?
No, that wouldn't happen. He still has his mother, and his father is the one who listens to his mother the most.
"Your Majesty, Minister Qian requests an audience." The young eunuch stood at the door.
"Xuan."
Sang Rui was already feeling very nervous, and when he heard Qian Fanji coming, he felt dazed.
Master Zhang didn't expect that Qian Fanji had also entered the palace. He guessed that he was probably here for the matter of his junior sister.
"Your humble servant pays his respects to the emperor." Qian Fanji came slowly.
"No need to be polite, Minister Qian, you haven't attended court for some time. How could you find time to see me today?"
"Your Majesty, I have found out something today that concerns Beili. I dare not delay for a moment." Qian Fanji's face was slightly solemn.
"What happened?"
"It was a tragic murder of 48 people from the Jia family in West Street some time ago. I have found out that this incident is related to the Yu family and Concubine Yu." Qian Fanji said as he handed over the memorial in his hand.
Emperor Beili took the letter, opened it and looked inside. There was a sachet inside. He was very familiar with the butterfly on the sachet. It was embroidered by Concubine Yu.
In Beili, sachets are personal belongings, and people only give sachets they personally create to the person they like.
The more he opened the memorial, the uglier his face became. Although these were all old events, the Yu family had hidden them very well. When they had conferred titles on concubines, they had someone investigate the records of all the concubines.
Those who were engaged or had secret affairs were not allowed to enter the palace, and his secret guards had no idea about it at the time.
When Sang Rui heard that the family massacre was related to his mother, his heart was already in his throat. Although he didn't know what was written on it, he felt that something was wrong when he saw the look on his father's face.
Master Zhang was not sure what Qian Fanji's action meant, but if something happened to Concubine Yu at this time, the Seventh Prince would almost lose the emperor's trust.
