Chapter 231 – Loyalty and Rectitude
by Salted Fish — The scandal involving Jingguo Duke's slave assaulting a court official had spread far and wide. However, during the next day's assembly, there was an eerie calm, and no censor dared to bring up the matter. Only Xu Chun submitted a petition confessing his guilt, while Xie Yi remained neutral. Due to the involvement of a noble, the Ministry of Justice was ordered to conduct a detailed investigation and report back. The case was straightforward.

by Salted Fish — When the imperial carriage arrived at White Brook Estate, the sun had already shifted westward. Xu Chun had ordered the preparation of lunch and was waiting at the gate with delight for Xie Yi. When Xie Yi disembarked from the sedan chair, he felt somewhat apologetic. "It's my fault. I wanted to come out earlier, but Ouyang Shen kept droning on about numerous matters to report. I've delayed you, are you hungry?" Xu Chun replied, "How could I be?" Xie Yi noticed Fang Zixing and smiled, nodding.…

by Salted Fish — Xu Chun was particularly rowdy when he was drunk at night. One moment he wanted water, the next he complained about the smell on his body and insisted on taking a bath in the Yutang Pool.

He personally took hot towels to wipe his body and change his clothes, but Xu Chun still complained that his hair smelled too. He grumbled incessantly, leaving Xie Yi no choice but to take more hot towels to clean his hair. It wasn't…

by Salted Fish — "A female secretary?" Fang Zijing looked at Princess Heshun with a changed expression. "Why did they suddenly assign you a task?" Princess Heshun said, "His Majesty summoned me early this morning. He said that Xie Qian from the Xigong Palace is being raised there, and the female attendants, wet nurses, and maids have many thoughts. His harem currently has no concubines, and the Empress Dowager is recuperating. It's really impossible to manage, so he asked me to take care of the child and gave me the rank…

by Salted Fish — As night deepened and the dew grew heavy, the palace gates opened silently, layer by layer, allowing the imperial sedan chair to pass through until it reached the front of Suiyu Hall. Xie Yi stepped down from the dragon sedan chair and quickly walked into Suiyu Hall, his robes fluttering in the wind, his face stern and cold. The eunuchs following behind him held their breath, following closely and silently. The hall was still brightly lit, filled with a subtle fragrance. Xu Chun was bent over his desk,…

Fang Zijing went through all the memorials Xu Chun had reviewed, giving him a few pointers, then selected several and said, "I wouldn't comment on these. Take them back tonight and think…

Sure enough, he saw Qin Jie dismount from his horse, guarding the entrance of the National Duke Manor with an anxious expression, eager to see him. He recalled what Brother Nine said about how Qin Jie would be eager to distance…

When Xu…
