Xue Yan did not expect that Jinbao not only completed his task, but also brought him a big surprise.

When he walked into the side hall of Yongle Hall, he saw the palace servants kneeling on the ground.

It turned out that Jinbao was carrying a food box alone, and according to Xue Yan's order, squatted Yi Jieyu and Lingtai Lang there. He was cold and bored. Early in the morning, he saw a group of eunuchs and court ladies passing by, so he went up to chat a few words.

And they happened to go to Yongle Hall to deliver breakfast to Emperor Qingping. One of them is still a nanny serving in the Qingping Emperor's Palace.

Jin Baotong, headed by the nanny, chatted for a while, and was about to part with them when they happened to meet Yi Jieyu and Lingtai Lang in the forest behind the Buddhist hall.

The place Xue Yan picked for him could just see the place where they met, but when the two walked there from their respective directions, they couldn't see where Jinbao was.

This place is also secluded. If Emperor Qing Ping was not staying in Yongle Hall today, this group of people would not pass by the Buddhist hall.

Therefore, the vigilance of the two people was very relaxed, and no one was watching. Yi Jieyu cried miserably, and Lingtai Lang also hugged her into his arms to persuade her. All the people present saw this scene.

There's no need to talk too much about Jinbao, the old lady made a decisive decision and called the guards to catch the two of them on the spot. After they were escorted back to the Yongle Hall, the old lady immediately reported everything she had seen and heard to Emperor Qingping.

When Xue Yan came in, the person kneeling on the ground, Emperor Qing Ping was angry, and smashed a teacup with hot tea directly on Yi Jieyu.

"You see him alone behind everyone else's back? Is there anything you want to say in private, shameless!"

But Lingtai Lang, who was kneeling beside him, leaned over in a conditioned reflex and blocked the cup of tea for Yi Jieyu.

Live like a pair of bitter mandarin ducks.

This is the first time Xue Yan has seen this man who beat him since he was born, and has set his fate for him, and has harmed him to this day.

Lingtai Lang lowered his head and didn't say a word, but he could see that his eyebrows were clear and his face was immortal. After blocking the hot tea, he still knelt back and looked up at Yi Jieyu.

Even Xue Yan in the distance could see the deep affection in his eyes.

He sneered and sneered.

Is this stupid look indulging in love because he is afraid that he will not die fast enough? It was so affectionate that it made him nauseous.

Sure enough, Ling Tailang's subconscious attitude immediately confirmed the relationship between the two of them. He could not wait to take out a green hat and put it directly on the head of Emperor Qingping.

Emperor Qingping was shaking with anger, unable to speak for a long time, his eyes glaring at the two of them.

Yi Jieyu was sitting on the ground at this time, crying in despair, she pushed Lingtai Lang away from the side, and climbed up to touch the legs of Emperor Qing Ping: "Your Majesty, the concubine has been wronged! Everything is This disciple is forcing each other, and the concubine is definitely not willing..."

"You lied!" Before she could finish her sentence, the mammy standing next to Emperor Qingping interrupted him angrily.

This nanny served on the side of Emperor Qingping since childhood, and was in charge of the diet and daily life of Emperor Qingping on weekdays. In Yonghe Palace, in addition to Ling Fu, she is the one in charge.

After she spoke out, she stood up neither humble nor arrogant, knelt down to Emperor Qingping and said: "Your Majesty, this old slave sees it very clearly. It is clear that she took the initiative to meet Lingtai Lang, and the relationship between the two is sincere, and she went straight into Lingtai Lang's arms. Drill! Not only the old servants, but also the servants present saw it, and the treasures beside the Fifth Highness also saw clearly!"

Next to him, Jin Bao, who had been shivering with fright for a long time, was suddenly called, and he nodded desperately.

The servants beside the emperor are so imposing, they dare to shout in front of the emperor! Fortunately, I just stopped this mammy to chat for a few days, but I really didn't expect this old man to look kind and kind, so it turned out to be so powerful!

Emperor Qingping was trembling with anger.

"What else do you have to quibble about!" he said angrily. "When did the affair between the two of you start, it's not too soon!"

Yi Jieyu just cried and shook her head, saying that she didn't, and Lingtai Lang next to her didn't say a word, looking like she was at his disposal.

Yi Jieyu really didn't do anything, but just used the opponent to bluff. This stupid Taoist priest is very infatuated. As long as he pretends that his friendship is over, and let him hug him a few more times, he will give up and let him do what he wants.

Yi Jieyu only regarded him as a chess piece, and naturally she would not give him any other benefits.

However, the two of them were hugging each other in no one's place when the sky was still dark, and they just happened to be bumped into each other. How can this be explained clearly.

Yi Jieyu raised her head in despair, and then she saw Xue Yan standing at the door of the hall from the corner of her light.

Xue Yan.

Yi Jieyu was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes became fierce.

Among the group of people just now, the leading servant was Xue Yan's eunuch. The place where he and Lingtai Lang met was so hidden, why did Xue Yan's servants happen to pass by with so many people?

Obviously he hurt himself.

"It's him, Your Majesty!" Yi Jieyu pointed at Xue Yan while crying, the pear blossoms were raining, and I felt pity for her weak and crying appearance. "It is clear that he instructed the servants to frame the concubines. Your Majesty must be the master of the concubines!"

Emperor Qingping rubbed his eyebrows impatiently.

He was already a little impatient with the Xu family, and wanted to find an excuse to warn the Xu family. But he didn't expect that before he could find the reason, the Xu family would cause him such a big scandal first.

He didn't like Yi Jieyu much at all, but he covets her gentleness and carelessness, never causing trouble for himself, and is an obedient and well-behaved plaything.

But didn't expect that her temperament that she was not angry or jealous was because she had other people in her heart?

This kind of provocation to dignity is the most intolerable thing for him as a king.

"Go, invite the right minister." He rubbed his brows, ignored Yi Jieyu, and instructed Lingfu.

Yi Jieyu's accusation is clearly groundless. Jin Bao was going to deliver food to Xue Yan, and he had crossed the road with him. Originally, the little eunuch had been guarding here for the master all the time. Seeing that Jun Huailang's fever had subsided, and Xue Yan refused to come back, he took the initiative to ask for an order to bring Xue Yan some food.

Emperor Qingping thought unpleasantly, could it be that Xue Yan ordered me to fail?

Lingfu received the Holy Order, glanced at Yi Jieyu, did not pause for a moment, and then retreated.

Yi Jieyu's crime today, even if she doesn't die, she will never have a chance to turn around. At this moment, the emperor asked him to invite Xu Xiang, not to show mercy to her, but to beat the Xu family, let them choose by themselves, and give them room to show their loyalty.

It is natural for them to choose if they want a daughter and a grace.

The old fried dough sticks that are soaked in the palace like Lingfu are the best to measure the interests. At the beginning, he only formed an alliance with Yi Jieyu because he was leaning on the Xu family and Qin Tianjian behind her. Now, this person is sure to die, and he doesn't have to care about his past relationship.

There's no such thing as love or love, and it's not all about getting what you need.

Emperor Qingping rubbed his forehead, then raised his hand and asked Xue Yan to come forward: "Why don't you stand at the door and not come in?"

His tone was much kinder.

What happened tonight just proved that the "Due Jing" can restrain Xue Yanzhi. That being the case, as long as he was taught to copy scriptures all year round, wouldn't this evil spirit be gone?

The throne under him is not threatened, and the Ziwei Xing where he lives is not hindered. Emperor Qingping can finally relax and treat Xue Yan as his son.

The father and son of the heavenly family have to bypass this layer before discussing the relationship between father and son.

Xue Yan stepped forward and bowed to Emperor Qingping: "Imperial Father. What's the matter with you calling your servant?"

Emperor Qing Ping glanced at Yi Jieyu, his expression turned cold, and said, "Last night is over, and there was another scandal outside the Buddhist hall this morning, so you don't need to copy the scriptures there anymore."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Xue Yan, his expression softened, and said, "It seems that copying this scripture is useful now. In the future, you may as well copy it more often, or be quiet and steady."

The most important thing is to suppress the evil spirit on your body. Emperor Qing Ping did not say this directly, but none of the people present were unclear.

Xue Yan nodded and agreed.

Emperor Qingping pointed to the seat beside him and let him sit down.

Xue Yan raised his head, swept his eyes, and looked at everyone in the room.

In addition to the witnesses kneeling all over the floor, there were also a few palace servants who came with Yi Jieyu.

One of them had a mole on his left cheek, which Xue Yan saw at a glance.

His eyes narrowed.

He has always recognized people, as long as he pays attention, he can remember them in his heart. Last night, the fire suddenly flashed, and Xue Yan clearly saw that the palace maid who came to find Jun Huailang had a small mole on her left cheek.

is her.

It's just that the palace maid stood quite back and lowered her head, so it didn't attract attention. If Xue Yan hadn't been paying attention, she certainly wouldn't have noticed her.

Xue Yan's eyes sank, and he turned his eyes away calmly.

These shrimp soldiers and crab generals, he had to wait for the dust to settle before dealing with them, but he did not expect that the first one of them would be delivered to the door by himself.

Xue Yan lowered his eyes calmly.

At this time, it is supposed to be the first day of the new year. Although all the officials are at home, they are going to the palace to worship the emperor today. Therefore, at this time, all the officials were waiting in front of Xuanwu Gate, and Xu Xiang was no exception.

It didn't take long for Lingfu to lead him all the way to the side hall of Yongle Palace.

On the way, Xu Xiang had already heard about what happened in the palace from Lingfu, so he didn't dare to delay for a moment, he hurried all the way into the palace, and when he saw Emperor Qingping, he knelt down on the ground in front of him.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty!" Xu Xiang shook his head straight, his voice already filled with crying. "The old minister is not strict with his daughter, and asks the emperor to punish him!"

It's just that the old foxes in the court are not the goblins of the millennium. Everyone present only heard him cry miserably, but no one knew whether the cry was true or not.

Emperor Qingping did not let him get up.

"Xu Xiang, now that the New Year is passing, I have a generous heart, but when Yi Jieyu does such a thing, she can't ignore the law," he said. "The two of them are here now. I called you here today because I wanted to ask you what to do with this beloved concubine."

Yi Jieyu, who was kneeling beside her, raised her head and looked at her father.

She knew that her father loved her since childhood. Although she was very insignificant to the entire Xu family, her father would not block the way of the Xu family for her. But she also believed that her father must have a way to save her life.

"The daughter of the old minister has committed such a monstrous mistake and shameless, and the old minister will not dare to ask His Majesty for mercy!" Xu Xiang kowtowed, fell on the ground and cried. "This woman is left to His Majesty's disposal, and this minister has no face to continue to be an official in the court! Please Your Majesty seize the old minister's official position, give the minister carriages and horses, and let the minister return to his hometown!"

There was indeed a somewhat satisfied look on Emperor Qing Ping's face.

Originally, he was only afraid of Xu Jiagong's high shock master, but now that such a big scandal has happened in the Xu family, he has a handle on himself. As long as I donate some kindness, the people of the Xu family can rest assured to use it.

"Xu Xiang's family has done their best for me, Dayong, and they have worked hard and made great achievements. I will naturally make a difference." He said. "Xu Xiang doesn't have to say these words. If you leave, what will happen to my court?"

"Lingtai Lang, drag it out and the car will crack. Yi Jieyu will be deprived of her title, demoted to a commoner, imprisoned in the palace forever, and will not be allowed to leave for life." After hearing what Xu Xiang said, he gave an order.

Although Xu Xiang didn't ask him, he still wanted to give this last bit of face. After all, it's not the most serious crime, and it's not the most serious crime. Leaving her life is all for the civil and military officials.

For a time, no one said a word, but they were all happy.

Xue Yan glanced at Xu Xiang on the ground lightly and stood up.

The gecko had a broken tail, thinking that he would be able to escape, but he must not have known that there was a beast trap hidden in front of him.

He wanted to save his daughter's life through this method of retreating, but he hadn't asked himself whether he would agree.

"Imperial Father." He bowed to Emperor Qingping and said.

"My son suddenly saw a palace maid with a familiar face." He raised his head and said to Emperor Qingping."There is a mole on his face, which is somewhat similar to the person who took Prince Yongning away last night."
