The Princess's Mansion.

Li Mingyue originally planned to take Li Chengen to go horseback riding, but when she heard that Zhao Hao was coming, she stuffed her riding boots into the young master's arms and ran out.

"Go by yourself!"

Li Chengen held four riding boots and said with a smile, "Two are enough for me."

"If you dare to wear mine, you will die!"

While Li Mingyue was speaking, the person had disappeared.

According to the information brought back by Li Chengen, it seems that the eldest brother's grandfather is somewhat resistant to his family. He cannot be negligent at this time.

When she ran to the Moon Gate, she saw Zhao Hao walking towards her with an expressionless face.

Now, this adopted son of His Highness no longer needs to report to the Princess before entering and leaving the Princess's Mansion at will.

Li Mingyue sighed a few times and regulated her breathing. Then she walked out like a willow in the wind and bumped into Zhao Hao, who was walking with his head down.

"Hold..." Zhao Hao subconsciously wanted to apologize, but when he looked up and saw that it was Li Mingyue, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Sister, please walk carefully."

"Big brother, the same." Li Mingyue smiled and walked side by side with him naturally, saying, "Big brother, you are frowning. What's on your mind?"

"Well, I ran into some trouble, so I came to discuss it with my godmother." Zhao Hao smiled and said, "I was a little depressed, but I feel much better after seeing my sister."

"Then just take a few more glances..." Li Mingyue lowered her head and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito.

"Haha, forget it." Zhao Hao smiled and shook his head, "It will be troublesome if you forget the important things again."

Li Mingyue suddenly thought of a line from "Song of Everlasting Sorrow" that she had just learned. Her heart started pounding and she quickly covered her burning cheeks.

"Brother, this is so annoying..."

"Huh?" Zhao Hao was confused and thought, I didn't drive?

But thanks to Mingyue, by the time he saw the eldest princess, his emotions had completely calmed down.

"Why is my son here?" The eldest princess was still kept in the dark and was happily arranging flowers.

"Come and pay your respects to mother." Zhao Hao said, and gave him a wink.

The princess smiled knowingly and said, "Mingyue, go to Liuyuexuan and get all your delicious food."

After the embroidery building collapsed, Li Mingyue said hello to Zhao Hao and moved into Liuyuexuan.

"Oh." Li Mingyue was not stupid, so she knew that some things were inconvenient to say to herself, so she smiled sweetly at Zhao Hao and said, "Brother, wait a minute, I'll get you something delicious."

~~

In the waterside pavilion, as soon as Li Mingyue left, Zhao Hao reported the matter to the princess in a low voice:

"This is the situation now - the Censorate has summoned my father. I guess the next step is to order all coal mines in Xishan to stop working."

"The problem is that Xishan Coal Industry hasn't opened yet! Can Dilong turn things around just by buying, buying and buying?" Young Master Zhao, who has a bad temper, got angry again when this was mentioned: "I think there must be someone behind this!"

"It must have been Xu Fan who ordered it!" The princess had an even more violent temper than Zhao Hao. She gritted her teeth and said, "I say, his wife, why did you come to withdraw your shares yesterday? What nonsense is that? You said the money was not available. We can only talk about it next time."

"It's him!" Zhao Hao gritted his teeth and said, "How many times has this happened? If I don't kill him this time, I'll write the word 'Hao' upside down!"

Uh, how do you pronounce that word? Mr. Zhao, whose memory is so bad in this life, couldn't remember it for a moment.

"That's right! If I can't kill them both, I'll write my name upside down!" The eldest princess also followed suit and yelled out her anger.

Liu Shanggong, who was watching from the side, was stunned and thought to herself, are these the real mother and daughter?

If you think about how well the young lord and the number one scholar get along, they really are not from the same family.

After venting her emotions, the princess calmed down and asked, "Son, what are you going to do?"

"Mom, help me with two things." Then Zhao Hao said in a deep voice:

"First, I want to see His Majesty immediately. Second, in eight days, I will hold the first shareholders' meeting. Mother, please help me make an appointment with those shareholders. Also, ask them to send a manager who knows business in advance. I will take them to visit Xishan."

"Okay, it's a piece of cake." The princess rubbed her hands and asked, "Anything else?"

"That's all for now." Zhao Hao shook his head and said with a smile, "Others are afraid of him, but I regard him as a traitor. Mother, just stand by me and watch how I crush him to pieces!"

"Haha, good, this is my son!" The princess smiled with relief. She knew that Zhao Hao was reminding her not to worry too much and give others a handle.

Zhao Lang was still squatting in the Censorate. The princess naturally couldn't wait any longer, so she immediately stood up and ordered, "Prepare the sedan chair. I want to go to the palace with my son to see the emperor!"

"Yes." Lady Liu went out in a hurry to prepare.

Just now she was really worried that His Highness would be so eager to save her husband that he would rush directly to the Censorate to ask for him.

Fortunately, Master Zhao was very experienced and managed to coax His Highness into not doing anything wrong.

Well, my life now depends entirely on Master Zhao.

~~

Censorate, interrogation room.

"Just because you say you don't know, does that mean you don't know?" Pang Shangpeng asked sternly:

"Then what's the matter with your son opening a mine in Xishan?!"

"I cannot answer this question right now. I will go back and investigate and then reply to you, sir." Zhao Shouzheng spread his hands and said.

"I'll let you tell me now!" Pang Shangpeng slammed the table again and said, "Did you instruct your son to do it?"

"If you can't produce evidence, I will sue you for false accusation!" Zhao Shouzheng sneered.

"You!" Pang Shangpeng couldn't help but get furious when he saw this guy practicing Tai Chi, just like a veteran who had been an official all his life.

"What is your relationship with the princess? How did you two start a business together?!" Pang Zhongcheng took a deep breath and asked a question that hit the heart.

If Zhao Hao hadn't given him a shot in advance, Mr. Zhao would have peed himself on the spot, but he was prepared, so it was different.

He replied expressionlessly: "I am concentrating on my studies and not taking care of worldly affairs. All family affairs are handled by my son, so I don't know anything about it..."

"Uh..." Pang Zhongcheng thought to himself, why does this sound a little familiar, so he asked coldly: "Didn't you also serve as a porridge hall director for her? How could you be completely unaware of it?!"

"I cannot answer this question right now. I will go back and investigate and then reply to you, sir." Zhao Shouzheng spread his hands again.

"Why this again?" Pang Zhongcheng slammed his hands on the table and roared at Zhao Shouzheng: "Tell me the truth, does His Majesty know about this?!"

"If you can't produce evidence, I will sue you for false accusation!" Zhao Shouzheng smiled coldly.

"You!" Pang Zhongcheng almost fainted.

Censor Wu, who was taking notes on the side, also put down his pen.

It’s just these three sentences over and over again. What’s so good about it?

"You are just pretending to be stubborn even though you've cooked the duck." Pang Zhongcheng had already determined that Mr. Zhao was a cunning, sly and scheming person, so he completely gave up the extravagant hope of winning the battle with one battle.

"In order to prevent collusion, I have decided to detain you for a period of time. Go to the prison and reflect on your actions!" He slammed the file in his hand shut and sneered, "Let's see how long you can keep your mouth shut!"

As the head of the three judicial departments, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was responsible for monitoring all officials and rectifying illegal activities, so it naturally had its own temporary prison. However, the prisoners there were only officials, and there were no prison bosses or bullies.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhao sighed inwardly and thought, he might have escaped the detention room in Shuntian Prefecture, but he couldn't escape the prison in the Censorate.

It seems that I can’t avoid imprisonment this time I go to Beijing.

Could this be the punishment for being impulsive?
