Chapter 758: 758: Leaving the Palace in Disguise

Qiao Xiaomai enlisted the help of little Xiaoyang, the guard, to send a letter to Yang Ye, while Cen Hong also sent a letter to Yang Wang on the other side.

The incident started with Qiao Xiaomai and Dong Sanlang injuring others first, was it not an insult?

That is not a reason to act violently. If even swearing results in a sentence, I’m afraid the jails would already be full of people.

But in the scenario where the Sun family and Sun Junyan are seriously injured, the ones in the wrong are Qiao Xiaomai and Dong Sanlang.

They don’t ask Yang Wang to do anything. Yan Rong, the Chief Justice of Dali Temple, is not one of Yang Wang’s subordinates nor the crown prince’s men. Yan Rong is an old man who is honest to the point of being stubborn. As long as Yang Wang supervises and lets Yan Rong judge according to the “Daqi Law”, this will be their victory.

Capital City.

Yang Ye received Qiao Xiaomai’s letter the next night. The letter was written by Dong Sanlang, but the content was in Qiao Xiaomai’s words. The tone was very casual and informal. Judging from the letter, he could imagine what Qiao Xiaomai looked like when he spoke these words.

However, the amount of information in these words was rather overwhelming.

Sun Junyan’s disfigurement had led to an immature suggestion that a disfigured person is unfit for an official position?

This suggestion was indeed immature.

If he were to make such a suggestion, both his father and his grandfather emperor would reject it.

As long as he is gifted, what’s wrong with being a little ugly?

He can only focus on the second point now.

It’s amazing that Sun Junyan came in second in both the township and city examinations.

The examination questions for the township and city examinations were set by his father, the Emperor, and dispatched to each government office by relay riders before the examination. If the questions were leaked, there is potential for manipulation here.

Furthermore, there are many areas that can be manipulated. All of Daqi’s examination questions are the same, and as long as Yang Wang bribes one person, he can know the test questions.

That’s hard to investigate.

Yang Ye stared at the letter in his hand, engrossed in deep thought.

After pondering for a whole night without reaching any conclusions, he lethargically ate breakfast the next day and hurried into the palace.

He holds no official position, does not need to attend morning court, and is a free man.

At this moment, he rushed to Yang Wenxiao, trying to subtly probe his thoughts.

Yan Rong is a rigid old man. When in court, he always follows the “Daqi Law”. If Yan Rong were to judge according to the “Daqi Law”, Qiao Xiaomai and Dong Sanlang would surely lose.

He hurriedly went to Da’an Palace, but met Yang Wenxiao, dressed as a commoner, at the door. Before he could ask anything, Yang Wenxiao saw him and immediately waved at him with a grin, “Great timing, I’ve been wanting to go out these days. Come with me.”

“What?” Yang Ye was stunned.

No wonder he was surprised. Yang Wenxiao seldom left the palace once a year. Why did he want to go out today?

“What are you dawdling about? Hurry up.” Yang Wenxiao sat on the Dragon Carriage and beckoned him to catch up.

Yang Ye came to his senses and chased him in a trot, “Grandpa Emperor, why do you want to leave the palace?”

“Wherever my mood takes me.”

Of course, he wants to see the kingdom he was able to conquer.

To see if this prosperous era is as she wished.

He’s getting old and he can’t deny it anymore. While he still can, he should get some more motion.

At the palace gate, Yang Wenxiao got off the Dragon Carriage and boarded a regular carriage.

He toured many places in the carriage all morning.

Wherever his eyes fell, most of the people were calm.

Very good.

If ordinary people are not showing signs of hardship, it means that the Yang family is governing well.

Pleased, he turned to Yang Ye, “It’s lunchtime, lad. Tell me a place where we can have lunch.”
