Although she didn't know when His Majesty started planning this matter, she knew that he must have planned it for a long time.

"His Majesty……"

"What?" When Emperor Longfeng didn't laugh, the court officials would remember that this was the last winner when many princes competed for the crown prince.

"You were the ones who didn't want me to establish the queen at the beginning, but you were the ones who wanted me to establish the queen later." Emperor Longfeng's eyes turned cold: "Or, you must have the final say in my harem?"

"I don't dare!"

"What are you afraid of?" Emperor Longfeng fell silent, and the entire hall was silent. Many people did not want Concubine Su to be the queen, but no one dared to be the one who stood out before His Majesty's majesty.

Someone secretly glanced at the two brothers of the Ming family from the corner of his eyes, but at this critical moment, they seemed to be an old monk entering a meditation, lowering their heads and moving without moving.

Some people also went to see the houses of several princes and wanted to know what their reactions were. But they were as steady as old dogs and their postures were more respectful than the two brothers of the Ming family.

They all went crazy. When Concubine Su became the queen, King Chen would be the legitimate son. If Your Majesty wanted King Chen to succeed the throne, it would be legitimate.

"Tonight is a night of fun for the king and his ministers, so the family of all the ministers do not need to be restrained." When the atmosphere became more and more intense, Emperor Longfeng smiled, as if he was the kind emperor on weekdays: "Everyone should take your seat."

Yun Yanze's hands shaking slightly in his sleeves, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.

So that's it, so that's it.

In recent years, whether they are supporting counselors in private or interacting with foreign families, their father has watched coldly, and it turns out that it is for today.

The father locked them up in the palace, and everyone knew that they were punished for making mistakes, but they did not know what crimes they had committed.

Which of the princes’ foreign families has never made small moves in private?

They didn't know what the father found, and they didn't dare to gamble with the glory and status of the whole family. So this New Year banquet tonight was a gamble between the father and these foreign families.

The father bet that they dare not object, they will be afraid, and they will compromise.

Whether it is the Zheng family, the mother, or him, they are the chickens that are about to be beheaded, and the remaining foreign families and princes are monkeys played with by their father and the emperor.

Killing the chicken to show the monkey, there is no more old-fashioned way than this.

But it is also the most useful method.

No one wants to be the beheaded chicken, even if he is a monkey, he will be laughed at.

"Your Highness?" Sun Caiyao gently held his hand and picked a piece of snack for him: "Try this snack."

"Thank you." Yun Yanze took the dim sum, took it to his mouth and took a small bite, put it in a dish until the cold dishes were served, and the dim sum never moved again.

"Minister of Ming, try this lotus root clip." The old county lord sitting next to Jiuzhu smiled and said, "It's crispy on the outside and fragrant on the inside, very delicious."

"Thank you." Jiuzhu thanked him, picked up a lotus root and put it in a bowl.

"Ming County Lord grew up in Lingzhou since he was a child. My subordinates heard that Lingzhou has many mountains and rivers, and produces nine-hole lotus roots. When the lotus root nodes are broken, they can lead very long thin silk. I wonder which kind of lotus roots in Lingzhou and Beijing is longer than that? "

Jiuzhu raised her head and looked around for the person who was talking, but she couldn't find it after searching for a while.

"County Lord, the lower lord is here." Seeing Ming Jiuzhu's eyes rolled around, but he didn't see him, Yang stood up and said, "Master, how can I solve the problem of the broken threads?"

Ming Jingzhou put down his chopsticks, wiped the corners of his mouth, and looked at the Minister of Revenue who was talking with a smile.

As for King Chen, who was sitting in the prince's seat, his face had completely sunk.

Everyone's eyes were turned to Ming Jiuzhu. Sun Caiyao thought she would be uneasy, but she didn't. She just sat there like that, her big eyes full of doubt, as if she didn't understand why the other party asked such a strange question.

"This sir, I'm very sorry." Jiuzhu apologized to Mr. Yang: "I have been in Taoist temple since I was a child and have never planted lotus roots. If you are interested in these, I will answer your question after I compile a book and ask my elders?"

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, no matter where the lotus roots are cut, they will be broken into pieces, but this does not mean that they are involved." Mr. Yang did not care about Jiuzhu's answer. He bowed to Emperor Longfeng on the high seat: "This is the relationship between His Highness Prince Qi and the Zheng family. Since he was born, he has been the grandson of the Zheng family, and this is not something he can choose. Everything in the Zheng family is self-defeating, but Your Highness is so innocent. Please observe it clearly."

Jiuzhu understood that the other party didn't care about her answer at all, but just used her mouth to help Prince Qi plead with her.

People in the capital have a very dirty heart.

"It's not that it's not going to be pulled." Jiuzhu defended the other party seriously: "As long as you stand far enough when you break it apart, the silk will always break. If it doesn't break, it's definitely not standing far enough."

Mr. Yang turned his head to look at her. He didn't expect that the Ming family's daughter would still speak at this moment.

Smart people should choose to shut up at this moment.

"Sir, I've never been to the kitchen." Seeing the other party looking over, Jiuzhu explained patiently and friendly: "But it doesn't matter, I'll understand in the future."

Mr. Yang said with a tense face: "Thank you, the county lord, for answering the doubts for the lower officials."

Now you can close your mouth.

"You're welcome." Jiuzhu said with a smile: "If you still don't understand, you can try it yourself."

Minister Yang stopped paying attention to Jiuzhu, walked to the center of the hall and whispered to Emperor Longfeng: "Your Majesty, please restore the title of Fourth Prince. Don't hurt your father-son friendship because outsiders."

Originally, he wanted to impress His Majesty with love by using the words of the treacherous relationship, but this beautiful wish was disrupted by Ming Jiuzhu and everything became inappropriate.

I thought that this kind of girl raised in a remote prefecture and county was not valued by the Ming family, and she was timid and cowardly, so she was best to fool her, but she didn't expect that the other party would completely disrupt her rhythm.

If he had known this would happen, he would not have chosen anyone to make a point of her.

"It's the New Year, I wanted to leave the account until after the New Year, but unfortunately some people are so impatient." Ming Jingzhou smiled slightly, touched the things in his arms, and waited for Mr. Yang to continue speaking.

Ming Jinghai lowered his head and took a sip of wine, but didn't say anything. Since the third brother has always had a smile on his face, he probably has come to what is going to happen today.

The Minister of Revenue was impulsive and highly praised the Prince of Qi. It would not be surprising if he listened to some rumors related to Prince of Qi and pleaded for Prince of Qi at the New Year banquet.

But for the Prince of Qi at this time, this was not a plea, but a push to the fire pit.

"Mr. Yang, today is a banquet for everyone to reunite, and it is also a family banquet. We will talk about the matters in the court after the court starts." Emperor Longfeng raised his hand to stop him and continued: "I see that Mr. Yang has drunk too much and needs to go out to sober up."

"Your Majesty, I am not drunk." Mr. Yang pushed away the eunuch who was coming to support him: "Your Majesty said this is a family banquet. The Prince of Qi is your child. Why can't the matter about him be mentioned at this time?"

Concubine Su glanced at Yun Yanze, whose face was blue. If she hadn't taken care of the men around her, she would have laughed out loud on the spot. Perhaps Yun Yanze himself would not have thought that the integrity of Mr. Yang was a double-edged sword, which could be used by him to poke others and hurt himself.

"Your Highness of the Prince of Qi is virtuous, humble, compassionate, and filial to Your Majesty. How can Your Majesty bear to abandon his filial piety because of other princes?" Mr. Yang said loudly: "Your Majesty's move is not only a humble minister, but also a great sympathy for the Prince of Qi."

The officials sitting around Mr. Yang shook their necks together. They didn't know who the "other adults" were, and it had nothing to do with them anyway.

As for the representatives of the "other princes", His Highness Chen smiled and drank a glass of wine, quietly waiting for the next performance.

"Father." Yun Yanze knew that he could not let Mr. Yang continue to speak. In front of everyone, he had to stand up and express his attitude.

"Your Majesty." Ming Jingzhou saw Yun Yanze standing up and stood up: "I think Mr. Yang's words are reasonable. His Highness, Prince Qi, is your prince. There is nothing that cannot be mentioned at the family banquet."

He Tingyu looked at Ming Jingzhou in surprise. It shouldn't be true. Mr. Yang was straightforward and did nothing but consequences. Ming Jingzhou was so reckless.

Seeing that Ming Jingzhou had stood up, everyone put down their chopsticks, and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Before entering the palace, I found some things related to the Zheng family and the Zheng Meiren. I just couldn't bear to see the unbearable face of my relatives on New Year's Eve, so I chose to remain silent." Ming Jingzhou took out a thick stack of things from his arms, including various loan notes for profit, confessions from his land, and even evidence that Zheng Meiren bribed the officials of the Royal Horse Farm.

"In the fifth year of Longfeng, Zheng Meiren asked the fourth son of the emperor to serve in the palace with the excuse of being seriously ill, but secretly sent a killer to Lingzhou to assassinate Concubine Su and His Highness Chen. Fortunately, Concubine was kind-hearted and rescued the girl falling into the water halfway and did not travel as planned."

"In the sixth year of Longfeng, the Zheng family condoned hundreds of acres of people in the tribe, causing dozens of farmers to lose their arable land and displace them."

"In the eighth year of Longfeng, the Zheng family received bribes of 5,000 taels of silver and obtained the position of seventh-rank county magistrate for others."

"In the tenth year of Longfeng, Zheng Meiren punished the palace maid until she died, and concealed her as a reason for being seriously ill. She was poor for the family of this palace maid and was still waiting for her to go back."

"In the spring of the 11th year of Longfeng, two eunuchs in Zheng Meiren's palace died suddenly, and the reason is unknown."

“Longfeng…”

As the evidence of guilt was listed by Ming Jingzhou, the entire hall was so quiet that it could not even be heard of the breath.

In front of so many royal relatives and court officials, all the crimes committed by the biological mother of the Prince of Qi and his family were clearly exposed, and almost cut off all the hope of the Prince of Qi ascended the throne.

Unless all other princes die, the throne will no longer have the fate of the prince of Qi, although these things may have little to do with the prince of Qi.

"Sir Shangshu." Zhou Rui swallowed, shrank his neck and asked Li En: "Brother Ming, what's wrong?"

In front of so many people, he tore off all the face and inner ranks of Prince Qi, even the blood feud of life and death is nothing more than this.

I haven't seen him have any objections to the Prince of Qi before, so why did he press the Prince of Qi to the ground and squeeze the face hard today?

Ming Jingzhou was still counting the crimes of Zheng Meiren and the Zheng family, and even the Zheng family owed a certain cloth house 200 taels of silver, but it did not miss it.

"Your Majesty, this is the relevant evidence I have found." After saying all the crimes, Emperor Longfeng of Ming Jingzhou gave a great gift: "I ask Your Majesty to severely punish these evil ministers to serve as a warning to others and to give justice to the people."

Everyone looked at the thick evidence in his hands and thought in a daze that Ming Jingzhou was the Minister of Rites, not the Minister of Justice, nor the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, right?

As if he thought this was not enough, Ming Jingzhou looked up at Yun Yanze with a pale expression: "Your Highness, the little girl said something very well. There is no unbreakable lotus silk in the world, only a chef who is not attentive enough. Please don't blame your highness for revealing these things today. You are not intending to target Your Highness, but for the people of the world."

"Your Highness is generous and kind, and he loves the people. I think he can understand the passion of his subordinates." He turned his head to look at the already stupid Minister Yang and sighed: "If it weren't for Lord Yang, I wouldn't have said it at this time today."

Ruthless, too cruel.

If you slapped someone in the face, you must say it yourself and it doesn’t hurt at all.

The Prince of Qi glanced at Ming Jingzhou and said reluctantly: "Mr. Ming is not wrong, it is my grandfather's family who did it wrong."

"It's not only the Zheng family that is wrong." Ming Jingzhou added with a smile: "Your Highness's biological mother, Zheng Meiren, is also wrong."

"Father." Prince Qi knelt in front of Emperor Longfeng in a daze. He no longer wanted to know what other people were looking at him at this moment. His forehead was pressing against the ground, and he could not even say something about pleading.

Ming Jingzhou dared to say this in front of so many people, so there must be conclusive evidence.

While tilting his head, he saw Ming Jiuzhu sitting first in the county chairman, picking up a lotus root and putting it into his mouth.

It seemed as if everything that happened in the hall was not as good as the lotus root clip in front of her.
