The emperor called the prince in, and Li Yun walked in with him. Xiao Feng was busy recognizing that the suspicious person he saw in Wanfo Temple was Li Yun. Unexpectedly, Li Yan put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, saying that the copper he used was allocated by the Ministry of Households. Xiaofeng quickly counterattacked, but Li Yan knelt on the ground, pitifully claiming that he had offended Li Chengyin and the Nine Princesses in some way, which caused the disaster today, hoping that the emperor would learn from him.
Li Chengye stood aside and finally spoke. Li Jun was his confidant, so he naturally helped. Xiao Feng came up with an idea, it’s better to open the Buddha statue and see the truth at a glance. Li Wei repeatedly argued, using the sacredness of the Buddha as an excuse to prevent Xiao Feng from investigating. Xiao Feng had a clever idea, and then he thought of a coup. It’s better to weigh the Buddha statue and compare it with the copper output of the imperial court. As soon as this statement came out, the emperor also clapped his hands in praise and decided to investigate the matter thoroughly.
An unexpected result happened. After weighing, the weight of the Buddha statue was not even in the slightest error. Xiao Feng was shocked. Li Chengyin also begged his father to check another Buddha statue. However, the emperor had already believed in Li Chengye and was not prepared to continue the investigation. Xiao Feng is very grateful to Li Chengyin for helping him, but Li Chengyin is only calm and gentle. He hopes that this will stop here and let Xiaofeng take care of himself.
Chai Mu blamed Li Chengyin. He really shouldn’t stand up for Xiaofeng. In the future, he must think twice before acting on the facts. Don’t offend others indiscriminately. In the evening, Li Chengyin went to apologize to Gaoming, saying that it was his own impulse that disturbed the chess pieces that Gaoming and Zhang Meiniang arranged for him. Gao Ming looked at Li Chengyin with a smile, hoping that he would grow his wisdom after eating.
On the other side, Li Chengye and Li Heng had a rock in their hearts. While they managed to escape the blame, they gritted their teeth with hatred towards Li Chengyin and decided to take revenge. Zhao Sese came to visit Li Chengyin at night. She worried that Li Chengyin would be punished in the court, and she also misunderstood the relationship between Li Chengyin and Xiaofeng. Li Chengyin quickly explained that he and Xiaofeng were ordered to investigate the case and had no other relationship. Only then did Se Se show a smile, open her eyes.
The next day, Yongning and Luoxi took Xiaofeng to the hot springs, who knew they had hit and missed and broke into the pool where Pei Zhao and Li Chengyin were bathing. Luo Xi rushed into Pei Zhao’s arms, his face turned into a red apple with shame, and Xiao Feng and Li Chengyin looked at each other in the water. Pei Zhao hurriedly helped Luoxi to leave, leaving Xiaofeng staring at Li Chengyin, scolding him for not being rude. Li Chengyin looked at the panicked Xiao Feng proudly, but memories related to Xiao Feng suddenly popped up in his mind. Li Chengyin had a splitting headache, but for some reason, he couldn’t help being confused.
Li Wei deliberately beat Li Chengyin’s court maid, but Li Chengyin couldn’t stop him, but Li Chengye forcibly left the court maid and prepared to take it back to punish him. Li Chengyin didn’t want to make trouble with the crown prince. Leaving swallowed. In the evening, Li Chengye invited Xiaofeng, Yongning, and Luoxi to dinner. Li Chengye saw that Xiaofeng liked the white fungus and snow pear soup, so he gave her a bowl of it. Who knew Xiaofeng would be poisoned by drinking it.
Xiao Feng was poisoned and unconscious. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. It turned out that among everyone, only Li Chengyin had left early, which was suspicious. At this time, Li Yan stepped up again to add fuel, and the emperor became more suspicious of Li Chengyin.
