After Yan Song came out from Emperor Jiajing's side, as expected, the Empress Dowager's people also came to summon Yan Song.
In the original Jiajing period, there was no empress dowager, let alone a princess. There were only two sons. Now, in this chaotic time and space, there was an empress dowager and Princess Heyu.
"Greetings Empress Dowager and Princess Heyu.”
The empress dowager sat on the phoenix throne, her face cold and angry. The dignity she had nurtured for a long time made her imposing.
Princess Heyu, on the other hand, was crying. No matter what, Princess Heyu was still the daughter of the royal family. She was beautiful, and when she cried, it would make people feel pity for her.
Yan Song sighed. Was Qin Xianglian very miserable in the case?
However, Princess Heyu was also in a miserable state.
She was originally a high and mighty princess. She thought that she had married a good husband, but in the end, it collapsed. Her husband was a heartless man. Not only was she ridiculed by the world, but she also bore the infamy of snatching someone else's husband.
She was a princess!
Golden branches and jade leaves!
If she knew, would she be so stupid as to get rid of this trap?
With such a huge scandal, everyone in the world would think that Princess He Yu deserved to die and not feel that she was wronged.
Also, was Bao Zheng really right in this matter?
Thinking of this, Yan Song sighed.
"Minister Yan, you should know about Chen Shimei and Qin Xianglian, right? They were trampling on the dignity of the royal family!”
"This lowly official is already thinking of a way. I definitely won't let the princess suffer such humiliation!”
"Is there any way now?"
"This lowly official would like to ask the princess a few questions.”
Princess Yu, who was crying, raised her head.”
"Does the princess still have any expectations for Chen Shimei?"”
"Humph!" The empress dowager snorted angrily," Chen Shimei, that bastard. How dare he lie to this widow? Kill him!"”
Princess He Yu cried and didn't speak.
Yan Song searched through his previous memories and realized that Princess Heyu was actually a very kind and caring person. She could not even bear to kill small animals. She was also innocent and thought that everything in the world was beautiful. There was no evil in her eyes.
It was not an exaggeration to say that a simple person like her would collapse if she met a 'good person' like Chen Shimei.
When he thought of Bao Zheng's actions, Yan Song felt that he was too cold-blooded and heartless.
The Empress Dowager said,"The Princess naturally wants to divorce Chen Shimei."”
Yan Song nodded.”
Yan Song had already thought about it when he came. The princess wanted to get out of the " Beauty Decapitation Case " unscathed. He had to make the princess cut off her relationship with Chen Shimei as soon as possible. He could not delay it. Otherwise, as the fishing boat heated up, the trouble would only get bigger and bigger.
Separations were common in the royal family. After all, the princess had the royal family's support and had more power than other women in the world. It was normal for her to be slightly dissatisfied and separate.
At this time, Yan Song thought of the charges that Qin Xianglian had sued the princess for-stealing her husband and murder.
The first one was obviously nonsense. If she knew that Chen Shimei had a wife, why would the princess marry her?
The second one, murder, should be referring to Han Qi. Chen Shimei instructed Han Qi to kill Qin Xianglian, but Han Qi could not bear to kill Qin Xianglian after knowing the truth, so she committed suicide to gain justice. In the end, Qin Xianglian and other people with ulterior motives pinned the blame on the princess.
In any case, it was impossible for Princess Yu to do this. With Princess Yu's kind personality, how could she do such a thing?
However, Yan Song still had to remind her." Princess, you must distance yourself from this matter. I'm afraid that Qin Xianglian will try to climb up to you."”
Hearing this, the princess's eyeballs fell out.
Yan Song said,"Please don't do anything about this matter, Princess, lest you make a mistake. Let me handle it."”
The Empress Dowager nodded." Senior Yan has always been meticulous. He will definitely satisfy us."”
The princess nodded.
Yan Song thought for a moment and warned," Princess, you should uphold the high and mighty princess attitude in this matter. Don't argue with that Qin Xianglian. This will only tarnish the reputation of the Imperial Family. Leave everything to me." At this moment, there must be someone adding fuel to the fire outside the palace, spreading the news of Qin Xianglian and coercing the public. So no matter what the princess does, it is possible that they will over-interpret it…"
The Empress Dowager nodded in satisfaction." That's how it should be. Princess, you should have the arrogance of a princess."”
"I'll listen to Grand Secretary Yan's arrangements," Princess Heyu said.”
……
……
Just as Yan Song was still discussing the plan with the Empress Dowager in the palace, some news began to spread throughout the capital.
"The new top scorer actually has a wife!”
"Chen Shimei abandoned his wife!"
"The princess sent someone to assassinate Qin Xianglian!"
"Qin Xianglian sued the new top scorer, the princess!”
"Bao Qingtian accepts Qin Xianglian's case!"
The news swept through the entire capital like a storm. It was a sensational matter that involved the top scorer and the princess. It attracted the attention of countless people in an instant, and under the help of some people, it spread rapidly.
Many Confucian scholars cried out,"The top scholar is actually such a person. His heart is lost, his morals are corrupt…" There were even many people who felt that someone like Chen Shimei must have cheated in the imperial examination to be able to become the top scorer. The host of the imperial examination, Yan Song, must be the culprit!
"It must be that treacherous official, Yan Song!"
"If we let him continue to cause trouble for the court, Ming will be in trouble!”
There were curses, sighs, and complacency.
……
After Yan Song left the Empress Dowager's place, he reviewed some memorials in the cabinet and only left the palace in the afternoon.
"Where is Qin Xianglian now?"”
"Master, they are currently in the Shuntian government office. Bao Zheng is settling the three of them there."”
Yan Song nodded.”
However, on the way, when they passed by a teahouse, Yan Song heard the sound of opera singing.
【
Chen Shimei: What kind of person broke into the palace, what are you doing here?
Qin Xianglian,"I'm here to congratulate the top scholar, the current emperor's son-in-law, Chen Qiansui!"
Chen Shimei, Hmph! Aren't you afraid of death by impersonating the family of an official?
Qin Xianglian: Your wife refused to acknowledge you here. Instead, she said that you were pretending to be her. I ask you, what are your intentions?
Chen Shimei, Hmph!
Qin Xianglian: " It was you who went to Beijing to take the exam. I haven't heard from you for a few years. I heard that you're in Beijing High School…"
】
When Yan Song heard this, he said to Yan Nian," Find someone and arrest this opera singer. Hmm…you can find the charges yourself…"
"Yes, Master." Yan Nian bowed his head.
Yan Nian was a smart person, so he naturally wouldn't be rash.
