My Ferocious Tigress Wife

It was true that Second Master Xie sprained his ankle after getting out of the car, but the cause was still Xie Xian.

Xie Xian humiliated the Crown Prince on the spot at the Qinhuai River and dug out Sun Sheng’s roots thoroughly. The Crown Prince was even more hated by the Emperor because of this. The officials of the Eastern Palace could not sit idly by. A group of people gathered around and persuaded the Crown Prince to go back.

He originally wanted to discuss a countermeasure and stop this matter at Sun Sheng’s place. At the very most, he would give up Wang Lun…

This was already the best plan.

If the Emperor did not really want to change the Crown Prince, this was actually a small matter. It was too common for the people below to arrange one or two positions for the relatives of the Crown Prince’s side consorts in order to please the Crown Prince.

Not to mention that he couldn’t catch up to the Crown Prince, even if the real Crown Prince had instructed Wang Lun, he would at most reprimand him.

However, Emperor Yu Heng was different. He was so eager to change the crown prince that his heart was about to go blind. He wanted to set off a three-foot-long wave even when there was no wind.

Sun Sheng’s matter would only escalate, and there was no possibility of settling the matter peacefully.

While the strategists were scrambling to think of a solution, the Crown Prince had already blown up the temple and pointed the spearhead at him.

Originally, Second Master Xie had been in the limelight because of Xie Xian. Although he was the son of a concubine in the Eastern Palace and was a proper prince, he had not been noticed because of Xie Xian. Even so, he had never had any other thoughts. He had wholeheartedly supported the Crown Prince and wanted to fight for the credit of becoming a dragon. He was completely loyal to the Crown Prince.

He was a bastard son, but Mother Xie valued her son, so she didn’t mistreat him.

However, he had grown up under the halo of Attendant Xie. No one could go around Attendant Xie and see him. Not to mention a bastard son, even if it was the third son, he would be killed in seconds.

He couldn’t compete with Shi Zhong Xie, but he was more than enough to compete with Third Brother. Third Brother Xie seemed to have been given away by the Xie family after they gave birth to a dragon among the people, Shi Zhong Xie. There was nothing special about him, and he was self-righteous and always stood up for himself.

Second Old Master Xie had always had an urge in his heart. He always wanted to fight for a future for others to see. The Xie family still had Second Old Master Xie.

But the Crown Prince did not give him a chance. The more favored Xie Xian was, the more wary the Crown Prince was of him.

This time, he directly cursed in public. If not for the people around the Crown Prince stopping him, the Crown Prince’s aura would have torn him apart. He had been dragged to the side room.

After that, it was Yin Qing who came to talk to him.

Yin Qing was the advisor that the Crown Prince valued the most, and he was probably more proud of the Crown Prince than Xie Xian was of Emperor Yu Heng. If it wasn’t for Yin Qing’s strong support and persuasion, and also silently cleaning up the Crown Prince’s mess, the Crown Prince’s reputation would have long been ruined.

Why did he sprain his ankle when he got off the car when he returned to the residence? It was really because Yin Qing’s words to him were too shocking, causing him to be absent-minded.

The Crown Prince needed to see his loyalty, and Xie Xian’s body was weak. He should rest at home and not go out to be an official again…

It was obvious that he wanted him to make a move on Xie Xian.

“.. What’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you say anything when you came back?”Lady Cai was full of questions, but her mother-in-law and elder sister-in-law were hiding nothing from her. She went up to them and asked, “We heard at Ruyi Restaurant that Ah Lang and the Crown Prince had a fight, and the Crown Prince was even scolded by the Emperor because of it. Did the Crown Prince anger you?”

“Your foot!” Madam Cai only realized it after a while.” It wasn’t the Crown Prince, right?!”

Second Old Master Xie frowned.” What’s wrong with shouting?””

“What is a woman like you always paying attention to the matters of the imperial court? I’m tired.” She turned around and lay on the couch. Her feet, which were covered with ice, fell onto the couch. Even the ice block was going against him. Was there such a bully? He was so angry that he kicked the ice block with all his might. His foot hurt so much that he sat up with a howl.

Lady Cai held her stomach and did not go forward. She called the maid in to clean up.

It was another round of torture. This round of torture had left Second Master Xie speechless.

“Forget it! Forget it!” He looked up at the sky and sighed.

Minister Xi was an expert at interrogating people. Xie Xian did not overstep his authority. He knew his position very well. He just had to keep an eye on

Minister Xi.

In the afternoon, Emperor Yuheng sent Prince Xin ‘an to personally take Sun Sheng’s case to trial. If Minister Xi could not see through the Emperor’s intentions, he would have lived in vain all these years.

If he said that he would investigate thoroughly, then he would investigate thoroughly. If others looked at him, they would be afraid that he would hide something.

Minister Xi didn’t hold back. Sun Sheng confessed everything once the torture instruments were used. He had indeed filled his own pockets. When he was purchasing, he had eaten someone else’s food, and that was all he could find out.

He had risen to power because of his sister and had never even met the Crown Prince. All he knew was that the girl was favored and he had basked in her glory.

The only thing Minister Xi could do was arrest the merchants who bribed the officials.

He ordered people to drag Sun Sheng away. Only Minister Xi and Xie Xian were left in the torture chamber.

“The confession has also been signed, and Minister Xie will pass it to the emperor to read?”Minister Xi was in his early forties and was not as ugly as his father. He was so ordinary that he could not be found on the streets.

In the Xi family, even Minister Xi’s generation was not as good-looking as expected. Fortunately, after a few generations of persistence and hard work, the Langjun of Minister Xi’s generation were all good-looking. It was just that the improvement of the little girls was not very effective, and they were barely good-looking.

Xiao Ning looked ordinary? She would be a great beauty among the Xi family’s wives.

The aristocratic families had always looked down on Xie Xian. No matter how much the Emperor doted on him, he was still a snobbish villain and a crafty sycophant. However, Minister Xi was an exception. He didn’t have much ill feelings towards Xie Xian, mainly because he was too handsome. It was really hard to hate him just by looking at his face.

He was wearing a black cloak on a hot day. The torture chamber was dark, and there were candles as thick as an arm on the wall. The lights were clearly shining on his jade-like face, but at least no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.

After working together this time, he had a whole new level of respect for Xie Xian.

The torture chamber had always been harsh. The blood stains on the ground could not be wiped clean. Over the years, there was a stench in the air. He felt disgusted after sitting for a long time. Xie Xian looked weak, but his actions were not inferior at all. He witnessed the entire interrogation with his own eyes. His face did not turn red, his breath did not jump, and he did not even frown. He was ruthless.

“Minister Xie came personally?” The second time he asked, Minister Xi pushed the confession in front of Xie Xian.

Xie Xian smiled and pushed the confession back.

“The Emperor wants us to investigate thoroughly.” “Where’s Assistant Minister Wang Lun?” he asked.”

Minister Xi was shocked. Xie Xian was trying to blow things up.

“At that time, the Emperor only ordered Sun Sheng to be escorted to the Ministry of Justice. This Wang Lun…”

Wang Lun was a direct descendant of the Wang family in Langya. He was the younger brother of Wang Lang’s mother and the Crown Prince’s uncle. Moreover, he was the future father-in-law of the Xi family’s Third Lady. The marriage between the two families was originally scheduled for August.

If they captured the in-laws and beat them up, would the marriage still be successful?

” 1 know that Minister Xi’s status is a little difficult. I believe that the Emperor is also sympathetic to Minister Xi, which is why he sent me here. After all, 1 am in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, the appointment and removal of officials in the world…”

“Sun Sheng’s sponsor is Assistant Minister Wang. Sun Sheng’s talent is not enough to entrust him with such an important task. Assistant Minister Wang clearly has the crime of oversight. We invited Assistant Minister Wang over to hear his side of the story, not to extort a confession through torture.”

“Minister Xi is in a difficult position, let me invite Assistant Minister Wang..”
