Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

After Gu Baiyan finished reporting what happened on the street today, the Chengming Palace fell into silence.

Fu Xiuyun sat at the top, stroking the jade finger on his thumb, his eyebrows lowered, unable to guess what he was thinking at the moment.

Wei Xiu stole a glance at him, and boldly said: "Your Majesty, I asked after the incident, and the people below said that the man rushed up suddenly. The situation was chaotic at that time. Maybe it was accidentally caused by pushing and pushing each other killed."

Today's turmoil was clearly instigated by someone deliberately, but people were sent to investigate the troublemaker, but it was like nothing was found, and no clue was found.

The common people hold the injustice for Fu Mingjue, and it seems that they are helping him, but to the emperor, it is like a rusty knife. Also more profound.

Fu Xiuyun remained silent, and after a while he raised his head and asked, "Where are the others?"

Wei Xiu was stunned for a moment, and then realized: "Go back to Your Majesty, King Jing is now being imprisoned in Dali Temple."

"Well, what's the situation in Yuan'an County?"

Gu Baiyan cupped his hands and replied: "Everything is consistent with the memorial submitted by Song Yinian. In addition, the weapons and gunpowder in the mine have been escorted to the Ministry of War, and eighteen complete sets of bones left in the cave have been assembled. As for the remaining wreckage, I estimate that there are about 23 people in total."

Fu Xiuyun smelled the strong ambergris in the air, felt a dull pain between his brows, and said, "Got it, you guys go down first."

Wei Xiu and Gu Baiyan looked at each other, with doubts in their hearts.

Then, Gu Baiyan said: "Your Majesty, King Jing has returned to Beijing, so should people search King Jing's mansion first for the joint trial of the three divisions tomorrow?"

Fu Xiuyun's eyes showed fatigue, and he waved his hands weakly: "Go and make arrangements."

"Yes."

The two didn't stay any longer, and then left Chengming Hall.

Mr. Li saw that his expression was slightly painful, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty has a headache again? Do you want to invite Doctor Sun to come over?"

"Let Yao Xingzheng come over, and besides, you go to Duke Mu's mansion for me."

Hearing the word "Mu Guogong", Director Li's eyes were filled with surprise, he closed his eyes, and immediately exited Chengming Palace.

After everyone left, Fu Xiuyun leaned wearily on the back of the chair, his eyes dimmed little by little, he came from the darkness, passed the light, and finally fell asleep in the darkness.

What has been envisioned for a long time has only become a reality now, so what is there to be disappointed about?
In the evening, the ink clouds gradually gathered and weighed heavily on the top of the head, just like the heavy and powerful steps of the imperial guards, stepping into King Jing's mansion neatly.

Ling Youyao stood on the steps, quietly watching them search around the yard.

After a while, they found nothing.

When Wei Xiu heard this answer, the stone on her heart was inexplicably relieved, and when she was about to take someone away, Ling Youyao suddenly stopped him: "General Wei, is the prince okay now?"

He paused for a while and said, "Everything is fine."

Although Fu Mingjue was locked in a cell, he hadn't been interrogated yet. It's true that everything is fine now, but he doesn't know if he will be safe and sound after tomorrow.

Ling Youyao let go of the tightly clenched hands under her sleeves: "I see, thank you General Wei."

"Princess, you are welcome, I will retire at the end."

The imperial guards did not find any evidence of treason in King Jing's Mansion. In fact, long before they came to search, Ling Youyao asked people to go through the various parts of the mansion carefully. I was afraid that someone would put the "criminal evidence" in the palace.

In fact, there were "criminal evidence" in the palace, but she was the first to find out.

No one knew about this except her and Zilan.There are only a few people who can enter and leave the study room on weekdays, so it is not difficult to find out who did it.

Seeing the gate slowly closing, Ling Youyao turned around and returned to Lanhui Courtyard, and told Zilan, "The imperial guards have returned without success. After that man gets the news, he will sneak into the study room again tonight. You have to be guarded." , be sure to catch him."

"The servant understands."

Ling Youyao walked into the back room, took out a black cloak from under the cabinet, and said, "You go out with me later, and leave the affairs of the house to the housekeeper."

Zilan was puzzled: "Princess, where do you want to go?"

"Dali Temple."

Zilan was taken aback, and persuaded: "Princess, tomorrow is the joint trial of the three divisions. If you go to Dali Temple tonight, you may be convinced. What's more, there are imperial guards guarding outside. It is not so easy to go out."

"No, there is nothing they want in the palace, so naturally they won't be staring at it all the time. Didn't Imperial Physician Sun give some drugs last time? It will come in handy tonight."

Zilan hesitated for a while, but agreed.

Ling Youyao took off all the jewelry, wrapped her cloak and left Lanhui Courtyard.As she expected, the imperial guards guarding the west door had already evacuated, and they came out more smoothly than she had imagined.

The two took advantage of the night to turn into the alley next to them, but they didn't expect that there was someone walking towards her in the dark.

"Princess be careful." Zi Lan stood in front of her.

Ling Youyao narrowed her eyes and looked over, feeling that this figure looked familiar, and when she was about to take a closer look, he said: "I knew you would sneak out."

"elder brother?"

"Well," Ling Qingyan looked at her dressed in black, and clicked his tongue twice, "You are quite well prepared for this outfit, I didn't know, I thought you were going to rob a prison."

"Then will you help me?"

"." Ling Qingyan twitched the corners of his mouth, and said solemnly, "I can't do things like robbing a prison, but I can still take you into Dali Temple."

"Really?" Ling Youyao's eyes suddenly brightened, and she pulled him into the carriage, "Then let's go quickly."

Ling Qingyan was helpless: "But Yao'er, you have to promise me that you can't stay too long after entering, and the final result will not be known until after tomorrow. Although there are all those criminal evidences in front of us, my father and I believe that the prince is innocent. As long as he does not plead guilty, everything will still have a chance."

"I know," Ling Youyao paused, "By the way, I found a letter from Tongzhou in the study, which also mentioned the iron mine."

As he spoke, he handed him the letter hidden in his sleeve.

After reading it, Ling Qingyan's expression became serious: "Who else knows the contents of this letter except you?"

"No, I'm the only one who has seen it."

Ling Qingyan put the letter away and said, "Okay, I will investigate this matter, and you can just stay at ease and don't think about anything."

"Ah."

While speaking, the carriage stopped at the alley next to Dali Temple.

Ling Qingyan helped her get out of the car, and said: "I won't go in, someone will pick you up later, remember, you only have a quarter of an hour, so make a long story short, so as not to arouse suspicion."

"I see." Ling Youyao and Zilan entered Dali Temple through the back door wrapped in the night.
