Chapter 223 223, uncovering old cases

Xiao Qiyu pursed his lips. After the fright just now, it was impossible for him to leave her alone under any circumstances...

He didn't want to experience this kind of thing again.

So, he glanced solemnly at his sick little wife in his arms, thought for a while and said, "Then I will stay with you here and wait for the emperor to issue a decree to pardon you."

Mu Yunjiang burst into laughter upon hearing this.

It turned out that she was overthinking it. He had always been a rational person, and he was afraid that he would not be able to disobey the emperor, so she deliberately made things difficult:

"It's almost midnight now. If we can't develop an antidote and solve the case, my life will be in danger. How can your father pardon me?"

At this point, her eyes flashed, and she suddenly thought of something: "Could it be that you have found the person who poisoned him and obtained the antidote?"

Xiao Qiyu nodded with a warm look on his face: "Well, I got it and sent it to Ningde Palace... Lord Shen has gone back to life now, and the emperor should be able to release you soon..."

very nice.

His Highness King Jingbei still has two brushes.

The reason why Xiao Qiyu believed that his master was not treasonous was because there was a guard beside him. He witnessed the whole incident with his own eyes and left his master's handwriting.

Xie Xiaoman is now in his hands. Next, he will still fight a tough battle, which will most likely anger his father. However, tonight, he just wants to give it a try...

When Shen Xingnan saw that King Jingbei had been silent, he felt helpless. Could it be that the prince also had the same idea?

"Xiao Xie, you are being used as a weapon, do you know? Come on, come on, look at me, do you still remember who I am?"

She got acquainted with one of the veterans named Zhao Si, who is now the shopkeeper of Courtyard No. 3 of Heifeng Pudang in Sishui City.

"Since you entered the palace a long time ago, why don't you come and recognize me?".

She is also a smart person and discovered the secret right away.

Xie Xiaoman opened his mouth to speak, but closed his mouth again, and asked with a look of alarm: "How can I be sure that you are not trying to trick me?"

Xiao Qiyu still had someone bring Xiaoxiao and Chuchu into the palace to take care of them, and then went to work.

"The Emperor has said that since the antidote has been found and the murderer has been arrested, Jingbei Princess Mu Yunjiang can stay with King Jingbei temporarily in Hui'an Palace. After Concubine De's case is resolved, she can return to the palace..."

"Actually, I...I have been investigating this matter. No, it should be said that many people like me who are from the old Chentang department are investigating this case. Don't worry, as long as we work together, this matter will definitely be solved

It can be found out..."

In this way, Xiao Qiyu finally found the antidote and formulated a plan to take Xie Xiaoman back into the palace.

"King Jingbei, what's going on outside? Isn't Eunuch Cao from the palace of the Empress Dowager? And Aunt Zhang, she seems to be from the palace of the eldest princess... Why are you taking it?

Down?"

Xie Xiaoman screamed with anger and hatred.

After coming out of the prison, they sat in a carriage for a while. For just a short while, Mu Yunjiang nestled in his arms, exhausted, and fell into a deep sleep.

"In all these years, I have never dared to raise the issue with the emperor because whenever he mentioned this matter, he would behead, exile, or imprison anyone, and I didn't have enough evidence to prove what Master said back then.

The treason was done by someone.

This makes sense.

Seeing that her tone had softened, Xiao Qiyu immediately asked back quietly:

"Yes. It's just that it's too old and it's difficult to trace. The truth back then, even some of the old members of the Rong family army didn't know what happened? They concealed their grievances, changed their names, and could only be homeless in various places for more than ten years. Do you think

Am I not willing to help them return to their hometown and meet their relatives?"

Over at Si Shui City, Xie Xiaoman was held at knifepoint by an old man with a white beard. This change was something she had not expected - she invited Xiao Qiyu to Si Shui City because she knew what was going on in Si Shui.

Many old troops from the Chentang mutiny sixteen years ago gathered together.

Xie Xiaoman certainly remembers him, but he was very handsome and handsome back then, but now, how did he become a villain?

"But how could that person take advantage of me? He saved my life, and he has been working hard to avenge us all these years? Why did he want to lend my hand to assassinate His Highness the Third?"

"That's good."

Duoduo is Xie Xiaoman's cousin. They were friends who played together many years ago.

Su Luo hurriedly said respectfully: "It's useful, it's useful. After taking it, the poison in Concubine De's body will be released... There is basically no serious problem now. Doctor Liu just came back and examined her again, and said

Li: As long as you take good care of yourself for a while, you will be fine..."

She leaned her head against him and apologized again.

His ancestors treated him well, so in the room where he lived when he was a child, none of the furnishings were lost, and the layout was not changed. Someone would come in and clean it every few days, so it was very clean.

However, Xie Xiaoman (Xie Mang) kowtowed his head calmly and responded loudly: "My lord, General Rong Xi is not guilty. The situation that year was extremely complicated. The emperor believed one-sided words and was manipulated.

The evidence was created to conclude that General Rong Xi is treasonous, which is the greatest insult to General Rong Xi."

It is a pity that the guard and the handbook were killed and the book was destroyed when he was a hostage. As a hostage, a son abandoned by the emperor, it was difficult for him to even protect himself under the circumstances, let alone

It’s to avenge Master!

Over the years, he has endured humiliation and bear the burden because he wanted to protect himself first before talking about anything else.

"The little girl Xie Mang once followed Xiao Langjun and became a hostage of Daqi. Later, she was executed by Daqi dignitaries to protect Xiao Langjun. When I was about to die, it was Mr. Zhong who took me back.

He first went to Ningde Palace, met Su Luo, the maid next to Concubine De, and asked: "Is the antidote useful?"

Facing this change, she shouted in disbelief:

She told Zhao Si that she wanted to kill a beast that was inferior to a beast and wanted to use Heifengpu's underground secret room. The man agreed immediately. Anyway, the death of one or two people in Si Shui City was always just a trivial matter.

Late at night, in the inner hall of the Ministry of Justice, Shen Xingnan was waiting for the arrival of Xiao Qiyu. Xie Xiaoman said that she would wait for King Jingbei to arrive before she could tell the truth about the case.

"Sir, he also saved several children in the army. Over the years, he has been teaching us how to read and practice swordsmanship, so that we can become useful people in the future, and in preparation for redressing the injustice of General Rong.

The two presiding judges were sitting in the high hall. Shen Xingnan was shocked, "Why do you want to murder Concubine De? Tell me quickly!"

It would be extremely difficult to overturn this case - back then, all the evidence pointed to the Rong family's treason.

"Who was the person who asked you to poison Concubine Xian? Who was the one who saved you?"

"At that time, I was young and you were also young. How can I win people's trust in my childish words? When we grow up, a lot of the evidence from that time has been destroyed. How can I prove that Master has never treason?"

Shen Xingnan was secretly surprised when he heard this. This old case had shocked the world for more than ten years, but it was the emperor's heart. If the little maid said this today, she was afraid that it would arouse the emperor's anger.

How uncomfortable it would be if she was in a different position, running around, only to see a little hope, only to find that her running has long been meaningless.

The white-bearded old man smiled coldly: "You don't have to worry about this. You only need to answer who made someone slander the little princess and harm King Jingbei..."

He did not go to see Concubine De, but went to the Ministry of Punishment to see Shen Xingnan.

Finally, Xiao Qiyu came.

When Xie Xiaoman saw Duoduo, and when Duoduo told Xie Xiaoman that His Highness had never forgotten General Rong, Xie Xiaoman believed that he might really have been taken advantage of.

The yin atmosphere here in Tianlao is very strong, and it is a bit colder than the palace.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiyu quickly helped Mu Yunjiang, who was lying down, to stand up and kneel down again, and responded in unison: "I accept the order."

Xiao Qiyu asked again.

He couldn't help but secretly glance at King Jingbei next to him, feeling cold sweat on his forehead, and his heart was even more anxious:

"Boldly rebelled against the traitors. It is a fact known to the whole world that the Rong family rebelled against the country. How can you say that they were wronged. But as a traitor, it is just a matter of lingering and not repenting. Instead, you are still committing filth. What is the crime for trapping others?"

"What do you call cruelty? This so-called King of Jingbei, he...he is ungrateful and has failed General Rong's upbringing. He deserves death..."

"The little girl was arranged to enter the harem a few years ago. First she delivered meals in the cold palace, and then she was arranged to be with Concubine Xian.

Originally, he had found out the murderer and obtained the antidote, but as a result, he hurried back to see him, only to see a lifeless wife lying on the ground - I believe any man who loves his wife would face such a situation. Everything will make you heartbroken...

The ancestor really knew him well and immediately sent Aunt An over.

Xiao Qiyu thought for a while and said to Uncle Beard: "Go and call Duoduo over..."

Knowing that her former mistress had never forgotten her roots, Xie Xiaoman was naturally excited. Naturally, she also knew how difficult it was to vindicate the case, so she hurriedly said:

*

Time went back to an hour ago again.

At this moment, he placed her on the bed. He was worried about her, but he had to go back to investigate the case of Concubine Defe's poisoning.

"Uncle Zhao, you...you and him are actually in the same group?"

After taking off the mask, that half of the face was scarred and horrifying.

After all, in their view, he was a prince, so he naturally wanted to enjoy glory and wealth. They knew that the Chentang Rebellion was a taboo in the emperor's heart, but as a prince who was not favored, he would not even touch it.

"I...I'm not sure what your mentality is, Lang Jun...Someone told me that the reason why General Rong rebelled against the country was all because of you..."

Suddenly, a villain with half a mask jumped out from behind the white-bearded old man and pointed at him: "I am your mother's junior brother, your beard uncle, the one who doesn't like shaving his beard..."

Gao Huan didn't mind his own business and left immediately. When he left the cell door, he looked at the dark night sky and walked into the palace against the cold wind.

"Mr. Zhong told us that King Jingbei is now addicted to women and has no ambition to make progress. He asked us to use the hands of Princess Jingbei to get rid of Concubine De in order to avenge the assassination of General Rong..."

Xiao Qiyu was also anxious. After so many years, this matter had been progressing too slowly, and sometimes he almost lost confidence.
To be continued...
