Sweat is semi-permeable, the rain is wet and the spring is suffocating, the moonlight shines through the carved window, and a delicately carved peony just falls on her heart.
Huaiyu looked down and saw him, panting lightly and asked him, "Does it look good?"
Jiang Xuanjin's eyes were dim, she stretched her hands up, opened her mouth to bite the ears that she hadn't taken off, and replied vaguely: "It looks good."
"Then do you like it?"
As soon as he asked this, he refused to accept it, only loosened his ears and bit her mouth, quite a bit irritated.
Huaiyu chuckled lightly, and didn't expect him to really answer. It's just a little bit cheaper.
However, after Yunyu's first break, she was vaguely going to sleep, but she heard someone hoarse voice in her ear:
"like."
Huaiyu was taken aback, and subconsciously wanted to look back, but this person reached out his arm and put his head on the back of her neck.
"Go to sleep." These two words are a bit fierce.
Li Huaiyu raised his eyebrows and stared blankly at the burning Buddha incense in the room. After a while, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, and the more he hooked it, the greater the arc.
Early the next morning.
When Qingsi opened the door and went to wait in the main room, she saw that her Royal Highness had already got up, dressed in bedclothes and long hair, sitting in front of the dressing table with a foolish smile.
"..." She laughed so stupidly, she didn't know what to say.
"Hey? Are you here?" Seeing her in the mirror, Huaiyu turned her head and said with crooked eyebrows, "It's a sunny day again today!"
Seeing that she was so happy, Qing Si was also happy, but she didn't know how to laugh, she only pressed her lips, and put the medicine bowl in her hand in front of her.
Li Huaiyu stared at a dark bowl with a bitter taste, and asked her, "How much is left?"
Qingsi replied: "One pair."
"That's just right." Picking up the bowl, she got up and walked to the window, slowly pouring out the concoction.
"There is no need to prepare in the future."
With her pupils shrinking slightly, Qing Si looked at her in shock: "Master?"
Huaiyu turned her head and put the empty porcelain bowl on the table, her eyes sparkling with a smile: "He dared to say that he likes it, why don't I dare to gamble for a good moon?"
Everything is going smoothly, isn't it? As long as she doesn't say who she is, Jiang Xuanjin will never know. When Sima Xu's case is turned over and Danyang is wronged, she will only be Bai Zhuji, her husband and son, and she may not be able to live a lifetime.
"You..." Qing Si couldn't believe it, "Why do you think this way?"
"A little surprised, right?" Huaiyu said twice, pressing his heart, and looking down. "I was also surprised. When this idea came to my mind last night, I wondered if the four fools came back to grab it. Body now."
"But no, that's what I think."
"I want to try it."
Determined tone. Her Royal Highness she is familiar with. But how could such a decision be made by His Highness? She and Ziyang Jun...not to mention the old hatred of Qianchen, even now, they also build their marriage on deception and use. As cautious as your highness, how dare you take such a big risk?
Qingsi shook her head subconsciously and wanted to persuade her to say a few words, but she knew very well that at the same time that His Highness decided one thing, he would always prepare countless words to convince her. In the end, she couldn't say anything anyway.
There is no room for transfer.
Taking a deep breath, Qing Si closed her eyes fiercely, and when she opened them again, her eyes became firm.
"Good." She replied.
Since it is the decision of His Highness, then let her.
When Huaiyu heard the words, the smile on his face bloomed again, and he bounced back to the dressing table, took the hairpin, and said to her: "Come and roll the bun for me."
Qingsi answered, just about to reach out to pick it up. Suddenly, I heard something rang at the door.
"Who?" The reaction was extremely quick, and she flashed out to the door.
Lingxiu walked in with the water basin, and almost ran into her. She was able to stabilize herself and raised her eyes and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
Qingsi was taken aback for a moment, then looked left and right, as if there were no other people.
"You just came?"
"Yes." Lingxiu walked past her and walked in, put down the basin, twisted the kerchief and asked, "What's wrong with Qingsi?"
"It's okay." Huaiyu smiled. "A martial artist is easy to get nervous if there is trouble."
"That's it." Lingxiu nodded and didn't ask much. She tidied the bed quickly, tidied the gauze curtains, and then retired.
Looking at her back, Huaiyu asked Qingsi in a low voice, "Is there a problem?"
Qingsi shook her head: "It shouldn't be."
Lingxiu is a timid girl. She has red eyes whenever she speaks to her loudly. If she really hears something, she won't be so calm.
Huaiyu nodded, then picked the hairpin in the makeup box.
Lingxiu left the main building and walked a long way, looking normal.
However, when she turned a corner, there were no more people around, and her legs suddenly softened, and she fell to the ground and panted.
"Four fools Bai came back to grab his body..."
The words that had just been heard in her mind made her face pale and she couldn't stop trembling.
After breakfast, Qing Si went out, and when she came back, she brought a terrible news.
"Treasurer Lu said, someone in Feiyun Palace had started."
Huaiyu frowned: "Did you succeed?"
"No, the assassin fell into the hands of the Lord." Qing Si said, "Now people are in prison."
He breathed a sigh of relief, Huaiyu smiled and said, "Stealing a chicken is not a good thing. It deserves it."
"In addition, Master Yun seems to have noticed something, and has been asking shopkeeper Lu about you."
"This..." Huaiyu scratched her temples. "It's better for me to confess if I have a chance. On Lu Jingxing's side, you let him carry it first."
Qingsi pursed her lips: "The shopkeeper Lu is quite resentful."
When did he have no grievances? But every time she complained, she helped her but was not vague.
Huaiyu touched his chin and said, "When the big event is over, I have to thank him well."
What thanks? Qingsi shook her head: "Shopkeeper Lu doesn't lack anything."
"That's not necessarily." Huaiyu thought for a while and smiled.
On an extremely sunny day, Lu Jingxing was sitting on the second floor of the Canghai Yizhu Pavilion, shaking a Nanyang jade-bone fan one after another, and Feng Yan looked into the distance, slightly lost.
Just next to Wuzheng, with the news, he looked up at him and frowned slightly: "Are you listening?"
"Huh?" He replied lazily, he looked back, smiling and said, "Listen, doesn't it mean that Jun Ziyang is very powerful, did you get on the bar with Liu Tingwei?"
Just Wu sighed: "Looking at your manner, I thought I didn't listen."
"Don't worry about me, I'm like this." Lu Jingxing smiled, "Nothing is serious."
Jiwu shook his head: "In the past, the princess often praised you, saying that if you hadn't strayed into business, you would have become a pillar of the country."
Would she still praise him? Lu Jingxing was quite surprised, and then smiled and said: "Forget the pillars of the country, if I enter the court as an official, I will definitely become a remnant of Danyang."
This is true. Even if he is not an official in the court, Shopkeeper Lu will do his best with regard to the princess, and is more serious than his own business.
A thought flashed, Wu Wu suddenly asked: "Do you really have only confidant friendship with the princess?"
The shaking fan stopped suddenly, and Lu Jingxing raised his eyebrows to look at him: "Why do you ask?"
On Wudao: "The life and death friends are like Ziyang Jun and Liu Tingwei. There is still a day when they turn against each other. But you and the eldest princess have been close for nearly five years, and you haven't had a fight."
Lu Jingxing laughed softly, and shook his head: "Who said it shouldn't be noisy? I used to be with her, and no one had spared anyone. It's just that I'm generous, it's really noisy, and I will let her be more generous."
Don’t let it go, Li Huaiyu is very domineering. If he says he doesn’t win, he will do it. While doing it, he said: "Do you dare to fight back? My palace immediately shouted to catch the assassin, not the shop that opened you all over the street. No one left!"
Lu Jingxing felt that the biggest reason why he was attracted to her and befriended her was that she was very special-she had a very thick skin, and she did not have the reserved and shyness that her daughter should have.
He never called Li Huaiyu a confidante, and if he had to use a name, he might be a good brother. For so many years, he never felt that he had any other thoughts about her.
Until she died.
With a "pop", Lu Jingxing closed the folding fan and said, "Don't mention the old things, I have to help Jiang Xuanjin now."
Now that the things I want to do are the same, I might as well tell him some things.
Tingwei Mansion.
Jiang Xuanjin and Liu Yunlie sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was solemn.
"The princess and Sima Xu couldn't get along before they were alive. If the motive is discussed, her suspicion is still the greatest." Liu Yunlie said in a deep voice, "Sima Xu was arguing with her in the court a few days before his death..."
"Master Liu." Interrupting him, Jiang Xuanjin said, "Why do you insist on retrial because you are the master?"
Liu Yunlie was taken aback, took a look at his clear look, and turned his head away: "The officials don't know."
"Then you might as well ask Li Fengxing." Jiang Xuanjin said, "Let him recall for you the perjury of how he did it!"
As soon as he said this, Liu Yunlie glanced at him in amazement, and then smiled: "You know about it."
Not guilty, not panic, even laughing? Jiang Xuanjin frowned and looked at him incomprehensibly: "Dangting Tingwei, do you feel ashamed of perjurying others?"
"The emperor doesn't know something." Liu Yunlie said, "Sima Xu was indeed killed by the princess, but the princess was deeply intent and cunning. At that time, all the evidence was completely destroyed. If you use normal If you want to let her go unpunished, it is also out of helplessness to dismiss her."
Jiang Xuanjin only regarded him as a sophistry, with cold eyes.
Liu Yunlie said again: "Lord Pingling was killed violently. Everyone knows that the princess did it. Isn't it because there is no evidence, so there is no crime? With the lessons learned before, the lower officials can only take risks."
"Prime Minister Sima has been loyal to the Northern Wei Dynasty for 50 years, so he can't let him die as unjustly as Heping Lingjun."
King Pingling, the brother of the first emperor, the uncle of Danyang, and the princess of the fourth year of Daxing came to his house and took a look at him. After that, he was poisoned and died in a miserable state.
Jiang Xuanjin had also heard about it, and was stunned for a moment. He looked down: "No one knows what happened to King Pingling and the princess, but as far as the case of Sima Xu is concerned, you have no evidence. Was the princess killed?"
"Except for her. Who would be cruel to this point? Prime Minister Sima praised everyone in the court. He never had a feast with others, only the princess." Liu Yunlie shook his head. You should have seen it too."
Sima Xu advocated that the eldest princess should return power to the emperor and set up a cabinet to assist him. The princess felt ridiculous, so she scolded Sima Xu in the hall, showing the sword and the shadow of the sword.
With the princess's personality, it is not impossible to retaliate afterwards for this.
Jiang Xuanjin closed her cuffs and thought slightly.
Seeing him loosen, Liu Yunlie hurriedly said: "The lower official doesn't know who misled the king, but you must know that the eldest princess has held the power of government as a daughter for eight years, and she is definitely not a general generation. . With her scheming and the city, even if she is dead, she may still have a back hand. You must not fall for it."
No matter how terrible the dead are, they cannot do more than the living. Jiang Xuanjin sneered and said back to God: "Since the adult admitted to instigating perjury, then his previous testimony is useless. If the adult still insists on thinking that the princess murdered, he will find other evidence to convince him."
After talking about getting up, you must move out.
"Your Majesty!" Liu Yunlie stood up and said angrily, "If there is no evidence, can it be true that the case can be turned over?"
This question was too much to ask, Jiang Xuanjin didn't even answer, and only looked back at him, and walked out the door.
Leaving the Tingwei Mansion, he was far less calm than he looked on his face.
It is true that Danyang and Sima Xu have a bad relationship. If he does not quickly find out Sun Qing and the people behind the assassins, this will give the original verdict the upper hand.
However, if Liu Yunlie's perjury was really just to get Danyang to subdue the law, then who was the real murderer?
"Master."
As he was walking, Chengxu next to him suddenly called him as if to remind.
Jiang Xuanjin looked up and saw the person standing by the carriage in front of him.
Frowning slightly, he stopped, his eyes stained with displeasure.
"Hey, it's said that a three-pointed smile is considered courteous and thoughtful. The Lord doesn't smile when he sees the next. What do you do?" Lu Jingxing shook his fan and smiled suavely.
"What are you doing?"
The cold words are not friendly at all.
Lu Jingxing sighed: "I thought the Lord needed evidence of Sima Xu's case. I am not interested in this way."
With a wink in his eyes, Jiang Xuanjin walked to him: "What proof?"
He closed his fan and pointed towards the teahouse across the street. Lu Jingxing stepped forward. Jiang Xuanjin frowned, thought for a moment, and followed.
The scent of tea overflowed in the secluded wing, and Lu Jingxing shook the pottery cup and asked him manly, "In the eyes of the king, what is the relationship between the eldest princess and Prime Minister Sima?"
Jiang Xuanjin said: "Tit for tat."
"On that occasion, there was a tit-for-tat confrontation in the court, and then there was none?" Lu Jingxing smiled, "A few days after the court meeting, have you ever seen them argue?"
Looking down to remember for a moment, Jiang Xuanjin frowned: "How do you know this?"
He is a merchant, why is he even clear about such court details?
With a chuckle, Lu Jingxing said, "Don't forget, your lord, next is Princess Danyang's "Fox Peng Dog Friends". I know everything that no one else knows."
Shopkeeper Lu has a close relationship with the princess. There was even a rumor that he was going to enter the harem as a messenger. He knew nothing less than Qingsi.
Realizing this, Jiang Xuanjin no longer doubted, but said: "You can say it all at once."
Taking a sip of fragrant tea, Lu Jingxing said, "This person in Danyang looks arrogant and domineering, but he is very clear. After the conflict with Sima Xu, she wrote a secret letter to Sima Mansion, explaining that The drawbacks of the cabinet."
"Prime Minister Sima is a sage. He knew at a glance that Danyang's original intention of arguing with him was not reluctance to delegate power, but not being able to establish a cabinet. So he wrote back and the two reconciled."
"With such a premise, it is impossible for Princess Danyang to kill Prime Minister Sima at all."
Jiang Xuanjin was a little confused: "Write a secret letter? Danyang?"
So how can a self-serving person write a letter specially because of a dispute? Listening to what Lu Jingxing said, Danyang didn't look like a scourge for chaos, but rather like a master.
"If you don't believe it, go to Feiyun Palace and Sima Mansion to find it." Lu Jingxing said, "Anything may lie to you, but you won't be able to write."
Jiang Xuanjin's calligraphy skills are not low. Recognizing handwriting is even more powerful, even if it is a specially imitated word, it cannot be hidden from his eyes.
Seeing Lu Jingxing's rhetoric, he thought, there is always no loss in finding it.
When I returned to Moju, the entire Jiang Mansion had already turned off the lights.
Jiang Xuanjin pushed open the door of the main house, and not surprisingly saw a round lantern on the table. Bai Zhuji was lying on the side of the lantern and was already asleep.
With a soft heart, he walked in lightly, reached out and carried her to the bed.
"Hmm." No matter how little the trick was, Huaiyu still woke up, glanced at him in a daze, and muttered, "Are you back?"
"Yeah." Jiang Xuanjin said, squeezing her sleeves and wiping the crystal clear saliva from her mouth, "Don't wait for me next time, just go to bed."
"That won't work." Huaiyu shook his head, "I couldn't see you during the day. If you go to bed early, and you go again when I wake up, wouldn't it be impossible to see you?"
Jiang Xuanjin sat down by the bed and asked in a low voice, "Want to see me?"
"That's natural." He rubbed his arms around his waist, Huaiyu closed his eyes and grumbled, "I wish I could grow on you, I can see you all the time."
Jiang Xuanjin laughed lowly.
Huaiyu was startled, and quickly opened his eyes to see, but the person in front of him converged extremely quickly, and the smile on his face disappeared in the blink of an eye, and he only calmly said: "Just wait for this while."
He squeezed his face unconvincedly, and said, "Laugh again!"
"Don't be fooling around." Jiang Xuanjin grabbed her hand, "Isn't she sleepy? Go to sleep."
"Why am I sleepy? It's completely idle." With a broken face, Huaiyu grieved and said aggrievedly, "Stayed in Mo Curie all day, except for going to the backyard to water the trees, just wandering in the vestibule. I slept in my nap For two hours, I opened my eyes and found that I was alone in the room, which is not to mention uncomfortable."
After thinking for a while, she raised her head and blinked at him: "Why don't I change my maid's clothes? Take me wherever you go?"
"No way."
"What's wrong with this? You thought I was going out with you last time, did you help you?" Huaiyu murmured, "Take me to make money without losing money. You still refuse such good things?"
Jiang Xuanjin slowly shook her head, but her eyes were loose.
Huaiyu immediately put him in his arms and pretended to be pitiful: "I am so boring to be alone. Do you know how many floor tiles are in this main building? Five hundred and sixty-six! There are eighty-eight window grilles and seventy-two ants. only!"
"If you don't take me, I can count the leaves of the orange tree in the backyard!"
Glancing at her, Jiang Xuanjin asked: "Is it true or just talking nonsense?"
Even if you talk nonsense, you can't admit it! Huaiyu rolled and sneered: "I don't care, I will go with you tomorrow, where do you go, where do I go!"
Jiang Xuanjin shook her head, as if she didn't want to pay attention to her.
However, the next day, there were still two people in the car to Sima Mansion.
"Why are you doing this?" Li Huaiyu, dressed as a maid, opened the curtain curiously and looked out.
Jiang Xuanjin said: "Look for something."
Sima Mansion was the former residence of Sima Xu, not an official residence, so after his death, the place was still there, and nothing was moved. The family members did not pick up the guests, but the old butler heard that it was Ziyang Jun, so he let them in and kept in the study for them to look for.
Huaiyu said as he flipped through the bookshelf, "What the is it? You can tell me somehow."
Looking at the door, Jiang Xuanjin whispered: "A letter."
After thinking about it, he added: "There should be a sealed wax print."
With a palpation, Huaiyu raised his eyebrows: "Secret letter?"
Jiang Xuanjin nodded and gently opened the cabinet under the bookshelf.
He vaguely guessed what he was looking for, Li Huaiyu went on searching, but almost turned the study upside down, and he didn't see any secret letters.
Jiang Xuanjin became suspicious and turned to ask the housekeeper: "After the prime minister left, has anyone been here?"
The housekeeper nodded: "I have had a lot of friends before my life, and I can't help but come to express my condolences after death."
Looking a little ugly, Jiang Xuanjin stood up, bowed to the housekeeper, and walked out with her.
"What? The thing you wanted was taken away?" Huaiyu asked in a low voice.
Jiang Xuanjin said: "I don't know if Lu Jingxing lied to me, or if someone really took the letter away and went to Feiyun Palace to look for it again."
Sima Mansion has it, Feiyun Palace also has it. Li Huaiyu already knew exactly what secret letter he was looking for, so he speeded up his pace to follow him.
Feiyun Palace used to be the most magnificent residence in the palace, and the emperor pampered her so much that he wanted to stuff all the treasures into her palace. The palace people said that even if the lights are turned off at night, there will be jewels and pearls reflecting the moonlight in Feiyun Palace.
However, the palace in front of him was no longer busy, and it was deserted when entering from the door. Apart from the palace man who led the way, no one else was visible.
Painting the forecourt of the wall, the carved beam and flower platform, she can know where and what is placed with her eyes closed.
The throat began to tighten uncontrollably.
When he got here, Jiang Xuanjin's face didn't look pretty either. It wasn't because of anything else. It was just that this place was several times larger than Sima Mansion. Finding a small letter would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
When he entered the main hall, he turned his head to ask the person next to him, but when he raised his eyes, he saw her staring somewhere in the inner room, her eyes were a little sad.
"Why?" He followed her gaze and saw the Ruyi Acacia couch in the inner room.
There were countless pictures flashing in my mind for an instant.
The spring of March was just right, he stood calmly in front of him, and offered a cup of red crane top.
"Send your Royal Highness." He said at the time.
Danyang was wearing a Yaochi peony palace costume, sitting on the couch, generously accepted the poisoned wine he handed, and drank it all in one go.
"The Lord must live a long life." She smiled bitterly.
Her heart shook slightly, Jiang Xuanjin shook her head intently, and then looked to the side, Bai Zhuji was still staring at the soft couch, but her eyes were clearly full of surprise.
"This couch is so beautiful!" She held her heart in her hands, as if the sadness he saw just now was an illusion.
Jiang Xuanjin was stunned, then lowered her eyes, and rubbed her eyebrows: "Don't look, go find something."
"Good!" Huaiyu nodded obediently, and followed him to the inner room.
Given Danyang's temperament, maybe things like secret letters are hidden in the agency? Jiang Xuanjin didn't look for the cabinet, but seriously knocked on the wall, knocking from the east wall to the west wall.
Li Huaiyu looked a little anxious, and could not remind him of anything, so he could only pretend to look seriously at the bookshelf.
After looking for a circle and nothing, Jiang Xuanjin couldn't help but said, "Could it be that Lu Jingxing really lied to me?"
Who lied to him! Huaiyu couldn't help it anymore, and seemed to unintentionally walked to the side of the acacia couch, opened the soft cushion, and exclaimed: "Ah!"
Jiang Xuanjin looked over and saw that under the soft cushion she opened, there was a square piece of wood with a different color from the side.
He walked over, reached out and opened the small wooden board, and saw a stack of envelopes hidden in the box under the wooden board.
"A lot." Huaiyu pretended to be amazed, helping him to take out all the letters, flipping through them at will, and pulling out the most neatly written one, calmly shaking under Jiang Xuanjin's eyelids.
"That's it." Holding her wrist, Jiang Xuanjin opened the envelope. A quick glance.
It was a letter written by Sima Xu, and the content was the same as what Lu Jingxing said. He did not lie.
"Go." Holding the pile of letters, Jiang Xuanjin took her and got up and left.
Huaiyu smiled, followed him step by step and walked out. When he went out, he couldn't help but glance back.
The Feiyun Palace is quiet and there is a thin layer of dust everywhere, no one will hold Huailin on the acacia couch and ask "Which one is better?" and no one will be there. Drinking and playing in this palace, ask Qing Si if she is the most beautiful girl in the world.
This place does not belong to her after all.
With his fists clenched, Li Huaiyu looked away, lowered his head to follow Jiang Xuanjin in front of him, and sighed stupidly: "This place is really big."
Jiang Xuanjin was about to hold the large stack of letters in her hand, responding to her, and subconsciously freed her hand to take her away.
The palms of her hands warmed, Huaiyu grinned, pulled the sleeves to cover the hands of the two, and held him tightly.
The secret letter that Sima Xu wrote to the princess was found. As long as the letter that the princess wrote at the beginning is found, it is enough to prove that the two people have reconciled privately and that the princess has no motive to kill Sima Xu.
But the letter written by the eldest princess was taken away by someone, and it was useless to go back to Sima Mansion to find it. Jiang Xuanjin returned to Moju and looked at the large stack of letters, a little worried.
Except for Sima Xu, most of these letters were from Han Xiao, Xu Xian and others. He didn't want to read it after reading two letters. They were just telling Danyang about something.
The most important thing now is how to find the letter written by the princess.
"Will you go out with me today?" It was another day when it was clear, Jiang Xuanjin got up and changed clothes, looked at the person on the bed who couldn't open his eyes, and asked softly.
Huaiyu stretched out his hand and shook it, saying, "How can I still have the strength when you tossed like that yesterday? Go by yourself, and I will walk with you tomorrow."
The person next to the bed shook his head, without embarrassing her, and went out with Chengxu.
When the door of the main house closed, Huaiyu opened her eyes and dragged herself out of the bed, whispering: "Qingsi."
Qingsi came in and heard her order: "Bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Don't let anyone see it."
"Yes."
Isn’t it easy to want a secret letter from the princess? She is here, just rewrite one?
With a smile on her lips, Huaiyu took the brush handed by Qingsi, subconsciously licked the tip of the pen with her tongue, and then dipped the ink and started writing. After the writing is done and dried, I deliberately fold it a few times to make it stale before letting the green ribbon go out.
When Jiang Xuanjin went down to leave the palace, he saw Lu Jingxing outside the palace again.
"Can you find the letter?" He asked with a smile.
Walking towards him, Jiang Xuanjin said: "Danyang wrote it missing."
"I know." Lu Jingxing covered half of his face with a fan, "because I am here."
Slightly startled, Jiang Xuanjin frowned: "What are you doing with that thing?"
"What else can I do? At that time, the wall was pushed down by everyone, and no one would believe what I said. Can I not only put this letter in first?" Reached out and took out something from his sleeve, Lu Jingxing handed it to him, "Look at it. ."
The handwriting on the cover is very familiar. The simple four words "Prime Master Qi" can be written skewedly, and it will only be Danyang's handwriting.
After receiving the letter, he opened it and looked at it. It was Danyang's handwritten script, and the content was the same as Lu Jingxing had said.
"Thank you," he said.
Lu Jingxing raised his eyebrows at hearing, and shook his fan and laughed: "She is the closest to me. You reverse the case for her, why do you thank me in turn?"
Jiang Xuanjin didn't answer, and took the letter and went to Tingwei's Mansion.
Lu Jingxing stood there and looked at him for a while, then turned around and wanted to leave. He swept aside but saw many people from the palace watching him.
Folding the folding fans and handing over to the ministers, Lu Jingxing smiled not so seriously, and turned to the carriage and ordered the fortune to return to the Yizhu Pavilion.
Tingwei Mansion.
Liu Yunlie read the letter he brought several times over and over again, and said in amazement, "How could this be?"
"Is it still certain that Danyang killed the man?" Jiang Xuanjin asked coldly.
Liu Yunlie was at a loss. He raised his head and looked at him for a long while before whispering: "The lower officials don't know about this."
He doesn't know either, except Lu Jingxing, who can know this? If someone believed in Danyang a little bit earlier, Lu Jingxing took out these two letters earlier, and the situation might turn around.
"At that time... I learned that Prime Minister Sima had an accident, Master Qi came to me." Liu Yunlie murmured, "It was he who said that the murderer must be the princess. "
Jiang Xuanjin frowned: "Why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Speaking of this kind of thing, isn't it a betrayal?" Liu Yunlie's expression was ugly, "But when you take this thing, I suddenly feel that something is not right."
More than something was wrong, he was clearly used as a gunman! Jiang Xuanjin shook her head again and again: "You have made countless cases before you have made such mistakes!"
"I..." Liu Yunlie felt a little guilty, and his voice became quieter, "Who knew it would be like this..."
Jiang Xuanjin asked, "Where is Sun Qing? Did you speak?"
Liu Yunlie shook his head: "I have used all the punishments, he refuses to say."
Jiang Xuanjin got up and went to the prison.
Sun Qing used to be a military commander, and the group of people he brought were all soldiers under Lord Pingling. His purpose was very clear. He wanted to avenge him.
However, it was impossible for him to complete those actions that were precisely arranged and precisely timed. There are people behind him. That person was powerful enough to save him, so Sun Qing refused to speak.
Jiang Xuanjin went in and saw him, and only knocked on the fence and said: "Your crime is convicted, and the seal of Prime Minister Qi himself will be cut at Qiuhou."
The people sitting in the corner were startled, and the chains rang loudly.
"what did you say?"
"You have committed the crime and murdered people, shouldn't you be killed?" Jiang Xuanjin knew what he had done, but continued to dig pits. "The Lord wants to let you go, but Prime Minister Qi said, if not Killing chickens and monkeys will surely disrupt the prevailing atmosphere."
After speaking, he turned around and left, as if he had just come to tell him.
"Lord staying!" Sun Qing panicked, pulling the fence and saying, "I'm just acting on orders, but in fact I am not going to die!"
Originally thinking that exile would be fine, he arranged for people halfway, and could survive the rest of his life if he fell into the grass, but how could Qi Han cook, kill the donkey?
It was just a cooperative relationship, and he never meant to be loyal to Qi Han. Since Qi Han doesn't protect him now, he can't be blamed for not keeping his promise.
Jiang Xuanjin turned around and asked, "Whose order?"
"Prime Minister Qi Hanqi." He answered without hesitation, "Yi Yang is his grandson-in-law. On the day he robbed the coffin, he arranged in advance and told me how to do it. Assassinating you was also what he meant!"
Is it really Qi Han? Jiang Xuanjin's expression sank, and she stretched out her hands to close her sleeves.
"My lord, if you promise to spare my life, I have more things to give you." Sun Qing said, "Those things are enough to reverse the case for you and achieve what you want, but I only need to survive!"
Back in front of the fence, Jiang Xuanjin said: "If you are willing to testify against Qi Han, this monarch can save your life. But if you come up with this prison, it depends on the weight of what you give."
Sun Qing asked: "What is the weight of the letter from the eldest princess to Sima Xu?"
Jiang Xuanjin thought she had heard it wrong: "What?"
"You don't know?" Sun Qing smiled confidently. "The princess once wrote a letter asking for peace to Sima Xu, shortly before Sima Xu's death. If that letter is taken out, she is suspected of murder. It’s a lot smaller."
The light in the cell was dim, Jiang Xuanjin stood silently, her face buried in the shadow: "Why is that letter in your hands?"
"It was also Qi Han who asked me to steal. He took me to mourn and let me find out the letter and destroy it. I kept my mind and left the letter." Sun Qing said, "If you save my life, I will give you the letter and help you testify against him."
"You tell me where the letter is." Jiang Xuanjin said, "After checking the authenticity, I will protect your life."
"Then there can be fakes?" Sun Qing mumbled. After looking at him, he knew that Jun Ziyang had always promised, so he said first: "The things are with my wife. You can find her."
...
If two identical letters are not placed in one place, there is really no difference.
Jiang Xuanjin's eyes were cold, and she picked up the letter from Lu Jingxing on the table.
There is no problem when I read it alone, but compared to Sun Qing's one, the envelope looks a lot newer, and the ink is much clearer, obviously written later.
Twist the paper gently. It is folk rice paper, which is somewhat different from the paper used in the palace.
The content of the letter was the same, with only a few words different. He could think that Lu Jingxing had no malice, just to help Danyang reverse the case.
But where did this letter come from? He is the most eloquent handwriting. It is impossible for someone to imitate Danyang's handwriting, she can only write it herself.
But why should she write one more? There is no reason at all.
In a daze, what Liu Yunlie said rang in her ears-with her scheming and the city, even if she died, she might have left behind.
This is difficult. Is Danyang left behind?
Just thinking about it, the door of the main building squeaked open.
Almost subconsciously, he immediately tucked the letter back into his sleeve pocket, and when he looked back, he realized that Bai Zhuji had come in with supper.
"Don't you knock on the door?" He was slightly annoyed.
Huaiyu held a bowl of small glutinous rice dumplings in one hand, put a bowl in front of him, and then held his own in both hands, while eating, said, "Where do you see my hands? I can only push the door with my feet."
The sweet smell filled her nose, Jiang Xuanjin didn't bother to care about her, holding the spoon and enjoying it gracefully.
The man in front of you never put the family rules of "no speech" at ease, and whispered: "The orange tree has a new branch today, and it might be fruitful next year. Your second brother seems to have a quarrel with your second sister-in-law, but it is a quarrel! The second sister-in-law went back to her natal house, and the second brother didn't seem to take it to heart. This glutinous rice is delicious, isn't it? An old sign that I specially asked Qingsi to buy."
If it had been before, he would definitely be unhappy, who talked so much about eating?
But right now, the light from the lantern on the table was radiant, and the person in front of him spoke with joy, regardless of the soup splashed on his face. Must tell him what she has seen all day.
Jiang Xuanjin felt very at ease in her heart, a sense of peace that she had never had in more than two decades.
I couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch his sleeves and wiped the soup on her face for her.
Huaiyu was taken aback by his sudden movement, and then his eyes were full of stars
