Chapter 170: I hope you believe me

At first Hanlu thought it was an illusion.

But for several days, she had this feeling, which made her more and more uneasy.

A few days passed, and Xin Nianyan looked through the case files over and over again, thoroughly investigating the case of Song Huaizhi's corruption and bribery, forming a party for personal gain.

Song Huaizhi formed a clique with the governor of Nan'an County for personal gain, bought and sold official positions, and misappropriated 100,000 taels of silver used to build the dam, which led to the outbreak of floods in Nan'an County and the displacement of the people.

After checking again and again, the evidence was all on the surface. Xin Nianyan couldn't understand why Hanfeng said this was an unjust case.

But four years have passed, and no one knows what exactly happened back then.

Suddenly, she paused while flipping the files and looked up out the window in the direction of Liuyun Pavilion.

Who says no one knows, there is another person involved, she should know everything about it.

boom--

A firework exploded in the sky and condensed into a cloud of smoke.

Xin Nianyan's eyes suddenly narrowed. Isn't this the signal firework from Feiyan Pavilion?

A black shadow flashed across the wall. Xin Nianyan frowned, raised his hand and pressed it on the brocade bag at his waist, entering a state of preparation for war.

It was a self-defense drug she prepared herself.

After seeing the visitor's face clearly, her nervous expression relaxed.

"Hanfeng, why are you here?"

Han Feng frowned, "Miss, Han Lu is in trouble."

"She got rid of the people who were following her in the evening and went to the Ministry of Finance to assassinate the Minister of the Ministry of Finance!"

Xin Nianyan was stunned, "Did she succeed?"

Hanfeng shook his head: "She is being hunted all over the city."

"Take someone to fish her out and bring her here." Xin Nianyan frowned.

"Okay." Hanfeng agreed, jumped up and disappeared in front of the window.

Xin Nianyan paced around anxiously. Soon, there was a commotion in the city, and bright lights could be seen from a distance.

I'm really afraid of what will happen. This girl doesn't seem to be such a restless person...

However, if she didn't kill the Minister of Industry, how could she find the Ministry of Husbandry?

…………

Half an hour later.

Xin Nianyan sat at the window, pulled up her cloak and yawned against the cold wind.

There was a faint smell of blood in the wind. Xin Nianyan was shaken and looked up.

Soon, several people jumped in at the top of the wall.

Xin Nianyan stood up quickly and opened the door of the meeting hall.

A man and a woman let go of Han Lu's hands, and she knelt straight on the ground, not daring to look up.

The two people beside him, one on the left and one on the right, bowed their hands to Xin Nianyan.

"Jingzhe, I have met the Pavilion Master."

"Shuangjiang, I met the Pavilion Master."

Both of them were dressed in black attire, embroidered with dark patterns.

This is the uniform dress of Feiyan Pavilion.

"No need to be polite." Xin Nianyan waved his hand, then turned his eyes to Han Lu who was kneeling on the ground.

She lowered her head, unable to see her expression clearly.

"Are you injured?" Xin Nianyan stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Han Lu raised her head, with a look of panic on her face after getting into trouble.

"Miss...I'm sorry."

She didn't want to take action so early, but recently she always felt like someone was following her, and she became a little panicked.

Xin Nianyan walked around behind her and saw that her shoulder had been slashed with a knife, and there was faint blood oozing out.

"Shuangjiang, take her to bandage her first." Xin Nianyan pointed to the inner hall at the back, "There is medicine for wounds in there."

Han Lu lowered her eyebrows and was helped in by Shuang Jiang.

There was silence in the meeting hall, Xin Nianyan sat at the table, flipping through the files on the table.

He leaned against the window in the cold wind, folding his arms and thinking.

After a while, the two people came out. Han Lu stopped in front of Xin Nianyan and knelt down obediently.

"Miss."

Xin Nianyan looked down at her.

"What should I call you, Hanlu, or...Song Yuqing."

Han Lu was shocked and looked up at her in shock.

"How...how did you know?"

Xin Nianyan didn't say anything, but just looked at her.

"The person spying on me recently was sent by you?"

Han Lu frowned and stared at Xin Nianyan for a long time before she laughed sadly.

"That's all, my life was saved by the young lady. Whether I am sent to the official or how to deal with it, Han Lu will listen to the young lady."

"If you want to be sent to prison, why should I ask someone to rescue you?"

Xin Nianyan raised her hand and flicked her forehead with her finger.

"If I want to deal with you, how can I let Shuang Sheng treat your wounds?"

Han Lu looked at her with confusion, "Miss, what you mean is..."

"From the moment I bought you, you were mine."

Xin Nianyan took a few steps back, walked back to the main chair and sat down.

"Whether you are Han Lu or Song Yuqing, you can't change this fact."

"Stop kneeling and come over and take a look at this."

Xin Nianyan knocked on the table.

Han Lu pushed herself up from the ground, walked over and stopped opposite Xin Nianyan.

Xin Nianyan pushed all the files on the table.

"I asked Hanfeng to go to the Criminal Department to steal this, the file about your family's case from that year."

After hearing this, Han Lu's expression changed, she picked up the file and started to read it.

"Tell me everything you know, and I will have a chance to help you reverse the case."

Han Lu frowned and looked at her, "Miss... why do you want to help me?"

"Han Lu, I need you." Xin Nianyan stood up, leaning on the table, and approached Han Lu. His expression was sincere and clear, without any falsehood.

"I hope you believe me, and you can only believe me."

Han Lu looked at her for a long time, her heart wavering uncontrollably.

What is Xin Nianyan's character? It's natural for her to see things clearly after such a long time. She likes this young lady very much, otherwise she wouldn't blame herself for fear of implicate her because of the failed assassination.

In front of her, she is not the daughter of a criminal whom everyone calls for beating, she is just herself.

The lady said she needed her, she was willing to help her, she wanted her to survive, and she could do it.

Finally, she made up her mind and knelt in front of Xin Nianyan again.

"Of course I believe you, miss."

"Han Lu was originally a prisoner of a certain rank. To be favored by the young lady is a blessing gained from previous lives."

"Han Lu is willing to take the young lady as her master, and she will do anything to help her!"

Xin Nianyan bent over and pulled her, "Get up, you are still injured, sit down first, look at the file, and tell me the specific details you know."

What we see in this file is just what the Ministry of Punishment wants outsiders to see. It is very difficult to find out the truth.

Han Lu then stood up, and Shuang Jiang next to her pulled a chair over and asked her to sit down.

She looked through the file for a moment, then her brows just furrowed.

"Miss, what is stated in this file is far from what happened."
