Putting aside those minor crimes, there are three major crimes that can be used to capture Dong Linhou: first, killing court officials, second, embezzling money and food for the disaster relief funds, and third, forming a party with Sun De for personal gain and committing fraud. As long as two of these three crimes can be proven, even if they can't kill him, they can seriously damage the vitality of the Dong Mansion.

Before they knew it, the sun was already high in the sky, making them extremely anxious.

Rong Xuan raised his head and glanced up, then slowly shook the folding fan in his hand: "Isn't the news from the palace out yet?"

Ji Fan ordered someone to inquire. After a while, the servant ran back and shook his head at Ji Fan: "The palace gates are sealed, and there is no news. I only know that Yu Linwei led troops to search the Dong Mansion."

When Ji Fan heard this, he lowered his eyes lightly and fiddled with the chess piece with his fingertips, hiding the schadenfreude in his eyes: "The court meeting has been going on for two hours, and there is still no news. Either Dong Linhou's crime is too serious, or Zhao Su failed, there will be no third possibility."

These two people are his big enemies, and he is happy to see whoever is unlucky.

Rong Xuan also felt that there was something wrong in the palace. If the evidence of the crime was solid, it would logically not have taken such a long time. Just as he was thinking about what to do, he suddenly heard an announcement from someone outside: "His Royal Highness, the Protector, General Xuanyuan Qing is here!"

Ji Fan and Rong Xuan were stunned when they heard this, and couldn't help but feel suspicious. They were worried that they would not have a chance to deal with each other, but Xuanyuan Qing came to the door by himself? Is there such a good thing in the world?

Ji Fan's eyes were gloomy and he didn't even play chess anymore. He threw the pieces in his hand into the chess basket with a bang and said, "Let him in."

In fact, before he could say anything, Xuanyuan Qing had already pushed aside the servants who were blocking his way and rushed in hastily. The first time he saw Rong Xuan sitting in the pavilion, he quickly stepped forward, knelt down on one knee and saluted, clasped his fists heavily and said urgently: "Master Rong, please help me!"

He was sweating profusely and anxious, probably something must have happened to Zhao Su in the palace, which led him to come out to report the news.

Rong Xuan glanced at the seat beside him and motioned for Ji Fan to sit over. Seeing Xuanyuan Qing kneeling on the ground, he did not reach out to help him up. Instead, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the fruit plate:

"General Xuanyuan, what kind of play is this? You have tens of thousands of soldiers under your command. How can a commoner below, who is unarmed, save you?"

Ji Fan originally wanted to watch the show while leaning on Rong Xuan's shoulder, but seeing Xuanyuan Qing present, he had to sit up straight. His phoenix eyes were slightly narrowed, hiding a coldness that only he knew.

Xuanyuan Qing was so anxious that his back was wet with sweat: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince impeached the Marquis of Dong for corruption and perverting the law today at the court meeting, but he did not expect that Dong Linhou will directly pushed his only son Liu Jianlai out to take the blame, claiming that Liu Jianlai secretly conspired with Chun De. We didn’t know anything about it. We didn’t know what was in the hands of Dong Linhou, yet Sun De actually admitted that he and Liu Jianlai colluded with each other to embezzle the disaster money.”

When Rong Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but pause while eating melon seeds. He thought that the Marquis of Donglin was indeed a cruel person, and he didn't even show his face in order to get away with his crime. Liu Jianlai, this cheap son, finally had an effect: "Where is Liu Jianlai? He also admitted it?"
