Zhao Yunzhu frowned secretly, feeling unhappy.
He turned around and saw the virtuous princess behind him, "Is there something wrong, virtuous princess?"
"I didn't realize that Concubine Yun and General Du are still so close, I'm really envious. I just wonder what Prince An would think if he knew about this on the battlefield."
There was a look of contempt and ridicule in Song Shumin's eyes, which made Zhao Yunzhu feel somewhat dissatisfied.
"What? Princess Xian has nothing to do after coming in? Instead, she's learned how to sow discord and stir up trouble. This is truly an eye-opener for me."
Zhao Yunzhu did not hide the sarcasm and disdain in her eyes towards Princess Xian.
"Concubine Yun, what a pity! If nothing had happened to the Zhao family and General Du hadn't died in battle, the position of Crown Prince's Concubine would still be yours. It's such a pity that such a talented woman from Chang'an could only become a concubine in the end. It's truly a pity."
Song Shumin was not angry, but looked at Zhao Yunzhu with sympathy.
"oh."
Zhao Yunzhu glanced at Song Shumin with contempt and did not continue to argue with her.
She turned around and got into the carriage with the help of her maid.
Only Princess Xian was left standing beside the carriage with a gloomy face.
Before she could come to her senses, the coachman drove the carriage away from the Liu family's door.
"You blind thing!"
Before Song Shumin could come to her senses, a speeding carriage drove away from her quickly, and the strong cold wind mixed with dust and gravel blew on her face.
I couldn't help but curse.
…
Inside Dali Temple.
The person on duty today is Lord Lin, a man who follows the rules and is very cautious.
It's lunch time.
He rested on the soft couch by the window, covered with a blanket. The scorching sun shone in through the window. He squinted his eyes comfortably, his body warm, and his thoughts gradually became lighter.
"My lord, this is bad."
Suddenly, there was a rapid knocking sound outside the corridor window.
This startled Lord Lin, who was half asleep and half awake.
"What happened!"
Lord Lin sat up suddenly and turned to look out the window.
"General Du is here with Master Du Er, and Marquis Yong'an is here too. I can see that something's not right!"
Lord Lin frowned.
Inside Dali Temple.
Lord Lin came hurriedly and saw everyone in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion. He was afraid that today's matter would be difficult to resolve.
"Lord Lin, I'm sorry to trouble you today. I was killed by a villain on the battlefield and lost my memory. It wasn't until I saw this person in the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion today that I regained my lost memory."
Du Ming'an pointed at Steward Fu and said, "This man is my second uncle's subordinate. Lord Lin, please investigate this matter. I will go to the palace first and report this to the emperor."
When Lord Lin heard this, he was shocked.
What happened today is really a headache.
But before he could ask, General Du left everyone behind and went to the palace.
Yong'an Hou frowned and said, "Master Lin, thank you for your help."
He quickly chased after his son.
Only Master Du Er looked a little flustered.
Lord Lin took a quick look and ordered someone to take Manager Fu directly to the prison for interrogation.
"Master Du, come and sit down first."
Lord Lin did not rush to interrogate him. He first asked Mr. Du to sit down for the time being and talk about other things later.
…
In Prince An's Mansion.
Zhao Yunzhu ordered people to secretly inquire about the affairs of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.
Ever since Mr. Du went to the Dali Temple, he has never returned.
No matter how Mrs. Du pleaded with her eldest son and grandson, it was of no use.
She could only order someone to go to the Dali Temple to make arrangements, but the Dali Temple did not let the people from the Yong'an Marquis Mansion see Master Du Er.
The emperor learned about this from Du Ming'an and ordered people to investigate thoroughly.
The Dali Temple, under tremendous pressure, finally delivered the results of the investigation to the emperor in just two days.
In order to seize the position of crown prince from his nephew, Master Du II sent people to attack General Du during the battle.
Manager Fu could not withstand the torture of the Dali Temple and finally confessed the crime of Master Du.
Mr. Du Er refused to admit it at first, but under the evidence and torture, he was left with only half his life left and admitted everything.
The emperor was furious and beheaded Fu Guanshi.
But when it came to Master Du Er, the emperor was slow to make a decision.
After all, he is a relative of Prime Minister Liu, and the emperor has to consider the empress dowager's face.
The emperor has not made a decision and the Dali Temple dares not to convict him, so Mr. Du can only be imprisoned in the Dali Temple's prison cell.
Now the second master of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion is plotting to murder his own nephew in order to gain the position of the crown prince.
It's really surprising.
Marquis Yong'an had been kneeling at the palace gate for a whole day, holding the memorial high in his hands.
He shouted out loudly what he wanted.
Marquis Yong'an wanted the emperor to revoke the imperial edict, remove his adopted nephew from his name, and return the throne of crown prince to his own son.
The palace has been slow to express its position.
After all, the Crown Prince's wife is from the Liu family, and the Liu family and Crown Prince Du are tied together.
Naturally, the emperor could not meet the Marquis of Yong'an, and everything depended on the wishes of Empress Dowager Liu.
But Marquis Yong'an had no intention of leaving at all.
The emperor had no choice but to send for General Du.
Ever since he found out that his second uncle had harmed him, Du Ming'an has been living outside.
Fortunately, he will leave Chang'an for Shu in a few days. Once he leaves this time, it will be difficult for him to come back in the future.
"Father, go back. I don't want the throne of the crown prince."
Du Ming'an's attitude was particularly firm.
He reached out his hand to help his father up, "Go back. I'll be leaving for Shu soon, and I probably won't be back."
Marquis Yong'an's face was stiff as he looked at his son. At this moment, he realized that he and his son could not go back.
He didn't know when it started, but he had completely lost his son.
Countless emotions can only turn into a sigh in the end.
…
Zhao Yunzhu heard that the palace had finally exiled Master Du Er and that he would never be able to set foot in Chang'an City again in his life.
"No matter how the emperor does, he still cares about the Liu family."
Zhao Yunzhu tapped the table and chuckled. She wasn't surprised by the result.
After all, this result is already the best result.
"I don't know what arguments will be made for the position of the Crown Prince of Yong'an Marquis's Mansion in the end."
Although Marquis Yong'an cannot get the emperor to issue an imperial edict at the moment, how can he continue to allow the son of his enemy to occupy the position of crown prince that belongs to his son?
"Miss, I heard that Madam Du had a big fight with the Marquis of Yong'an, and now Madam Du has moved to the farm outside the city."
Linglong massaged her young lady's calf while telling her the news she had heard.
"It seems that Madam Du favors the Second Master Du, and now the Marquis of Yong'an is unwilling to tolerate it any longer."
"How could Madam Du accept this? She's now moving to the manor just to force Marquis Yong'an to stop causing trouble."
