Song Lian was not very willing, and Zhao Letong did not force him. The Imperial Observatory protected the world, which was a great merit, and there was no need to do these small things to accumulate merit.
However, Song Lian needs to be familiar with this aspect of things, so that it will be more convenient when he needs to liberate the souls of the dead when he is away from home in the future.
Zhao Letong felt that he was really a good elder, and that his small body was filled with so much care.
There was such a big commotion here, and finally people from the palace came and found out that this was Prince Su’s Palace.
The one who came was Xiao Yuanheng, the son of Prince Su. He naturally knew Song Lian. Who didn’t know the head of the Imperial Observatory?
"Master Song, why are you here? Is there anything I can do for you?"
Song Lian also held an official position in the court and received a salary, so Xiao Yuanheng called him that.
"Why am I here? I have to ask your dear sister, and you, Prince Su's Mansion, are so bold that you actually use living souls to feed evil demons. Do you know how great a sin you have committed?
Today, I will report this to the Emperor and ask him to deal with it. You can handle it on your own."
Xiao Yuanheng was shocked: "That's not true. Our family has always been honest and upright. How could we do such a wicked thing?"
Zhao Letong said, "You didn't, but your sister might not be. She's involved in many deaths. Are you really unaware of this?"
Xiao Yuanheng couldn't believe it: "I know that many servants were killed or injured in her yard. She said that the servants were disobedient and beat them to death. They were just servants, so I didn't pursue the matter. Could it be that those servants..."
Song Lian: "Yes, she gave the servants to the evil spirits. Aren't the servants' lives important? Is this what you call honesty and duty, Prince Yuan Heng?
When you go to the underworld, no one will look at your status, only whether you have done good deeds in your life. You are also partly responsible for the deaths of these people, but you still don’t care?
It's not certain whether you can be a human being in your next life. Being evil without knowing it is the greatest evil."
Song Lian couldn't say anything more unpleasant. He was very restrained. After all, he was the prince of Su. He carried Zhao Letong and left: "Your house has been corroded by negative energy. Living here will be bad for your health and will only make you more unlucky. If you believe me, move out."
"move place?"
Xiao Yuanheng didn't expect the consequences to be so serious. This was the royal palace bestowed by the emperor. If he moved away, not only where could he move to, but what would outsiders think?
Zhao Letong said, "Nephew, you don't need to explain. They will be moving soon. I'm hungry. Let's go eat some roast chicken."
"Okay, I'll buy it for you."
As they left, Xiao Yuanheng angrily slapped Yi Yang in the face, "I braved the resentment of my family to let you live at home, and this is how you repay me?"
Yi Yang refused to repent: "I am also a member of the family, why can't I live here? Didn't you tell father that as long as I come home, there will always be a place for me in the family?
Your wife is always frowning and you don't even try to control her. You blame me?
If your wife hadn't bullied me, would I have taken such a risk and done such a dangerous thing?"
"I was wrong. I was so wrong. You're a jinx. Whoever you go to will suffer misfortune. That's why I didn't let you come back in the first place."
Yi Yang sneered: "You want to use this excuse to drive me away? It's over. I am a member of this family in life and a ghost in death."
Xiao Yuanheng couldn't explain it to her clearly, so he went to discuss the aftermath with King Suqing. Song Lian's words made him feel uneasy.
Prince Su may not care about Zhao Letong, but he cannot care about Song Lian. After all, he represents the Imperial Observatory.
"Father, what do you say we should do? Lord Song will impeach our palace with the Emperor. What should we do if the Emperor punishes us?
And my little sister is so scary now, like a leech sucking the marrow out of my bones. I get scared looking into her eyes. You should send her to a temple to practice cultivation. I'm afraid she'll bring trouble to the whole family."
"That's your own sister, how could you bear it?"
"Father, if you go and see what she looks like, you won't say that."
Prince Su said, "Father will handle this matter, don't worry about it."
Xiao Yuanheng was furious: "Master Song has said that the mansion is now filled with yin energy and is not suitable for living. My son and the children are going to live in the manor. Don't blame me for not reminding you. You are so old, it is important to take care of your health."
"You're leaving?"
"I really can't stay at home. To be honest, my wife wants to take the children back to her parents' home because the house is really in chaos. My nephew even bullies my son, and my wife can't even criticize him. Otherwise, she will be unable to tolerate her sister-in-law. I love my wife and children, so please forgive me for being unfilial."
Prince Su is getting older and more stubborn. His son is disobeying him and is forcing him to drive away his daughter and grandson in disguise.
"If you leave, don't come back."
"Okay, son, I'll take note of it."
Xiao Yuanheng was really heartbroken. He didn't want his father to favor boys over girls and treat his married daughters as spilled water, but he couldn't value them more than his sons and grandsons, right?
The father and son parted ways unhappily. Prince Su was still angry that his son disregarded family affection and would not compromise. How could a father tolerate and give in?
But the next day, he could no longer be stubborn. Song Lian impeached him in a memorial, accusing him of raising evil spirits at home, killing innocent lives, and even being involved in the murder of the queen. Emperor Xuande directly stripped him of his title of prince.
If it weren't for his old age and being his elder, Emperor Xuande would have demoted him to a commoner and expelled him from the capital.
What Zhao Letong said was right. Without the title of prince, wouldn't Prince Su have to move out of the palace?
Xiao Yuanheng, who had not had time to leave, could not leave anymore, and the whole family had to find a new place to live.
Fortunately, their property was not confiscated, and they still had a lot of money at home. They had also purchased other properties, but none of them were as spacious and grand as the royal palace, and could not accommodate so many people.
Mrs. Yu of Xiao Yuanheng was so angry that she burst into tears. Her wealth and prosperity were all ruined by her sister-in-law.
"You can move, but you can't take my little sister with you. If you agree, we can still be a family. If not, then let's get a divorce. I'll live alone with my son and daughter. I'm really scared of her. She's not a normal person now."
The Crown Prince's wife was cruel, and she could endure it, but her son and daughter could not be implicated. As a mother, she must be strong, and she would take on the role of the villain, and Yi Yang must get out of her home.
Prince Su was so angry that he fell ill, cursing the emperor for being heartless and ungrateful, and unfilial to his elders. He stripped his title for such a trivial matter. Could he be worthy of his ancestors?
Xiao Yuanheng's face turned pale when he heard this. If this got to the emperor's ears, he would be charged with treason.
"Give my younger sister a house. She has quite a bit of dowry, so let her take it all away and live on her own with her two children."
Xiao Yuanheng made a prompt decision. His father was confused and he could not be weak. If he lost the throne today, he would lose his life tomorrow.
The Crown Prince's wife's expression improved a little, "Crown Prince, hey, I can't call you Crown Prince anymore. Without the throne, there will be many people outside laughing at us.
But I believe that Master can support this family. Master should have made such a decisive decision long ago."
Xiao Yuanheng felt guilty: "It's all my fault. My wife has to suffer with me."
