Xie Yushu felt somewhat saddened upon seeing Xiao Yi's verdict.
Objectively speaking, Xiao Yi is quite diligent and daring in leading troops into battle, but he is always indecisive and biased when dealing with the Chu family.
He rose to prominence thanks to Chu Wei's promotion, but ultimately ruined his future because of Chu Mingzhu's foolishness. It can be said that he was both made and destroyed by the Chu family.
We have repaid the Chu family's kindness to the fullest extent.
However, Xiao Yi's fate is no longer of any concern to her. As a general, he couldn't even keep an eye on his own study. He deserves his current predicament.
After reading the message, Xie Yushu tossed the letter aside, thought for a moment, and then wrote a reply to Han Zhongyu.
Now that he is in the capital, young and holding a high position, he is being watched by countless people. This place is far away from the capital, and who knows if this letter will be intercepted? Even if the probability is very small, Xie Yushu is still on guard. Therefore, she did not mention a word about the Tatar capital in the letter.
He simply told Han Zhongyu that he was alright and to take care of himself.
Since he had something inconvenient to do, he went to find Qiushuang and Tianshui.
After all, the Han family's reputation is what it is, so there are many things they can't do without. As for Han Zhongyu, a new broom sweeps clean, and if he doesn't get off to a good start, things won't go smoothly in the future.
There was no point in saying anything more, so he said nothing more.
After replying to Han Zhongyu, she also sent a letter to Qiu Shuang and the others, telling them to do their best to help Han Zhongyu if he encountered any trouble.
After sending out the two letters, Xie Yushu went to the government office and bought two more mountains, which were the two adjacent mountains in Yuquan Villa.
One is a horse breeding farm, and the other is a place to house the Divine Eagle Guard.
At the same time, Zheng Dacheng was instructed to manufacture a batch of rifles based on the number of Shenying Guards.
She needed to hurry up and master the marksmanship of the Divine Eagle Guards, so that she could be prepared to face any future challenges.
When Qingfeng saw that Xie Yushu wanted to build a separate base for the Divine Eagle Guard, he directly explained Xuan Yuanche's financial situation to her.
The land deeds for Guangtian and the property deeds for shops in various places filled an entire box, and various rare items such as gold and silver jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, pearls and jade were stored in several warehouses.
Even though Xie Yushu was not short of money, she was still shocked by his wealth.
No matter how rich Xie Yushu is, she's just a nouveau riche; besides gold and silver, she has nothing of value.
Xuanyuan Che is a true member of the royal family, with profound background and heritage.
After Qingfeng finished speaking, Xie Yushu asked...
"Shouldn't these things be handed over to the Empress Dowager or returned to the royal family?"
Qingfeng said
"Apart from the prince's fiefdom and residence, which need to be returned, everything else can be disposed of at his discretion."
This was allocated to the prince by the late emperor long ago, and the emperor cannot interfere.
The Empress Dowager has already returned the Prince's mansion and fiefdom. As for the property, the Empress Dowager said, since the Prince gave you the Divine Eagle Guard, you can have the property as well!
"That's exactly what His Highness meant when he entrusted us to you."
Xie Yushu understood after hearing this, but still felt that this thing was too heavy.
After pondering for a moment, Xie Yushu decided to accept it.
Although she doesn't need it right now, since it's a token of Xuan Yuanche's goodwill, she should keep it safe and use it when the opportunity arises.
Having figured it out, he instructed Qingfeng to continue managing the base and horse ranch, and told him to hurry up and build them up.
Just as Xie Yushu and her team were building their base with great enthusiasm, Xiao Yi, who had been dismissed from his post, had his property confiscated, and had been given eighty lashes, returned to his hometown with his concubine and son.
It is said that after Xiao Yi's case was transferred to the Dali Temple, it shocked the entire capital. From court officials to ordinary people, no one could believe that the person who caused the fall of Tianshui City and the deaths of the Prince of Daqi and so many young men was actually a woman from the inner quarters.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qingyuan smashed his teacup, cursed her three times as a stupid woman, and then ordered his men to drag Chu Mingzhu out and behead her.
Then, a servant reported that Chu Mingzhu had been executed on the spot and buried in front of the Heroes' Tomb outside Tianshui City to atone for her sins, and only then did the matter end!
Because of Chu Mingzhu's stupidity and wickedness, the court was deathly quiet for several days. Whenever Emperor Qingyuan thought of it, he would lose his temper and reprimand them for not managing their own families, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world.
This caused widespread panic. When he returned home, he gave his female relatives a serious lecture and added three locks to the study.
They were afraid that their own family would produce a proud and arrogant fool like Chu Mingzhu.
Although Xiao Yi was kept in the dark, his lax management of his family, allowing his relatives to spy on military secrets and neglecting to guard the important study, led to serious consequences. He was still unforgivable. However, considering his previous contributions to the Great Qi, he was ultimately spared the death penalty, but was given eighty strokes of the military rod, dismissed from his post, and his general's mansion was searched.
Overnight, Xiao Yi went from being a rising star in the court to having nothing.
No, that's not right either. He also has a body full of injuries, a concubine, and a son.
Hmm, there's also a "mother-in-law".
Whether it's karma or not, eighty strokes of the military rod, while not killing Xiao Yi, crippled his legs.
The concubine was Ping'er, the daughter of Chu Mingzhu's wet nurse. Because of her scheming, she became pregnant and gave birth to Xiao Yi's son. She was then registered in Xiao Yi's household register and had nowhere to go.
The other two beauties, whom the emperor had bestowed upon them, fled with their silver and jewelry when they heard that the general's mansion was going to be raided.
The reason why Granny Zhu and Ping'er didn't leave was because they still hoped that the information was wrong. After all, Xiao Yili's military achievements were genuine, and he was deceived by Chu Mingzhu this time. Even if he was punished, it might not be that serious. There's a saying that you can make up for your mistakes with your merits!
