Since the files on Rong Bing's crimes cannot be retrieved, most likely they were destroyed by someone with ulterior motives.

The light and shadow in the main hall of Dali Temple gradually dimmed. Seeing that the diligent prince still had no intention of returning to the palace, the servant in the hall lit the candles in the hall under the order of Dali Temple Qing Hongguang.

Seeing his own shadow falling on the long sandalwood head table, Mu Huai recalled that the Zhai family of the queen's mother's family in the previous life had a good death.

Until his death, Zhai Zhuo was still in good health and served as the Minister of Rites of Daqi. During the more than ten years of his reign, Zhai Zhuo was in charge of the etiquette affairs of the royal family without making any mistakes.

The title of Minister of Rites is different from other official positions in the DPRK. This position is of high rank and is a second-rank official in the DPRK, but the real power is not great. Firstly, he does not command troops, and secondly, he will not have any interactions with important officials from other states and counties.

But since the Minister of Rites is the chief official responsible for organizing major royal ceremonies, there are many opportunities to make money.

In his previous life, Rong Xi was kicked out of the palace by the queen.

Although Mu Huai had a grudge against this, before Emperor Zhuang died, he specifically told Mu Huai to treat the queen and his concubines who were still alive.

Emperor Zhuang knew that Mu Huai had a strong personality and would not marry a woman he didn't like. In his previous life, he said that if he didn't want to marry Zhai Shiyin, it would be up to him.

But don't cause trouble for the Queen. Let her sit firmly in the position of Queen Mother and spend her remaining years in peace.

Emperor Zhuang also said that the queen was his legitimate mother after all and she should not lose her filial piety.

Mu Huai had no feelings for Queen Zhai, but he still obeyed Emperor Zhuang's request before his death.

After he ascended the throne, because of Rong Xi's incident, he was not very filial to Queen Zhai. But she was also allowed to sit in the position of the Queen Mother, supported by fine food and fine clothes.

Mu Huai was in power with an iron fist. Empress Dowager Zhai's mother's family was not considered powerful, and she knew very well that Mu Huai, the emperor's son, was not close to her.

In the second year after he ascended the throne, Queen Mother Zhai finally gave up her intention of letting him marry Zhai's daughter, and while both of the Zhai family were still in their youth, she betrothed them both to other families.

When Mu Huai saw that it was getting dark, he was greeted respectfully by Hong Guang and Xue Rui, looked at the beautiful scenery of Bianjing at dusk in spring, and took a luxury car back to Yongxi Palace.

Sitting quietly behind the car, his thoughts continued.

Since the case files from that year could not be retrieved, they took advantage of this opportunity and secretly asked the censors from Taipei to investigate the Zhai family's background.

If his Zhai family is clean, then he will not harm Zhongliang.

If the Zhai family is not clean, then new and old scores will be settled together.

After all, Rong Bing is Rong Xi's father. If he were a civilian man, he would be respectfully called father-in-law.

When he returned to Xuanhua Tower, the main entrance of Yongxi Palace, it was already the evening ban period when the palace was locked. As soon as he entered the palace, the eunuchs of the East Palace found him.
