Hearing Zhu Fan's words, Song An just smiled. He knew very well what Zhu Fan was talking about and why he was ordered to enter the palace. It was obviously the fifth princess who was behind it.
But so what, I'm afraid even the fifth princess herself didn't expect Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li to recruit them in such a short period of time.
"Then Mr. Zhu, just drive slowly!" Song An said casually and put down the car curtain, and began to think about the whole thing secretly. He always felt that something was not right.
Is this all too easy?
Moreover, even if the fifth princess valued Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li, there was no need to bring Zhu Fan in. The more he thought about it, the uglier his face became. He must have missed something.
Outside the carriage, Zhu Fan showed a smirk on his face. Song An was in trouble this time.
He had been keeping an eye on Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li for a long time. The only reason he didn't act rashly was that he thought it might be a trap. However, now Song An took the initiative to fall into the trap!
"No, Xu Chu, you rush back immediately. You must ensure the safety of Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li. Separate them from An Ye. Then send 5,000 Luoshui over. Be careful of someone kidnapping you!" Song An finally knew what was wrong.
Yes, the other party was trying to attract the attention of Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li. If the two of them died, Song Anqu would be convicted of the crime.
"yes!"
Xu Chu immediately turned his horse's head and rushed back towards Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
After knowing where the opponent's trap was, Song An felt relieved. The feeling of being plotted all the time before was really uncomfortable.
Zhu Fan frowned slightly when he saw Xu Chu riding his horse back. Could it be that Song An knew what was going on?
If this is the case, Song An's threat in his heart may have increased to another level. This kind of person must not be easily provoked.
In this way, the two of them entered the palace separately, and Song Jiancheng received everyone in the imperial study.
As soon as he entered the room, Song An saw the fifth princess and the consort standing in the study with aggrieved expressions on their faces, and next to them was Song Jiancheng, who had a headache on his face.
"Lao Qi, I heard that you arrested Hongya's people?" Song Jiancheng looked a little helpless. He knew what was going on at a glance, but he couldn't expose it directly, so he could only ask bravely.
"Go back to my father, Fifth Sister's people? When did I arrest Fifth Sister's people?" Song An looked innocent, and then looked like he suddenly realized something.
"Fifth sister, I did arrest someone the night before yesterday, but that person came to kill my assassin. Could it be that he is one of yours?" As he spoke, Song An showed a look of sadness and indignation on his face, looking in disbelief.
The fifth princess in front of her—Song Hongya!
Hearing Song An's words, Song Jiancheng and Zhu Fan couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths. They had seen shameless people, but they had never seen such shamelessness.
It was obvious that he was pretending to be stupid here, but when it came to the dark night, Jiang Yunxuan still felt a little unnatural on his face. After all, he was the one sent to assassinate Song An. Once any evidence was found, the identity of the prince-consort who murdered the current King of Zhenbei would be revealed.
Can't save him.
"Huh, don't talk nonsense here. I don't know any assassins. I called you here this time because I want to ask you about Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li. What qualifications do you have to arrest my people?" Fifth Princess Song Hongya said with a look on her face.
She looked at Song An ugly. Song An was far more difficult than she imagined.
Things that should have been their absolute upper hand were now being suppressed by Song An, which made her very uncomfortable.
"Wei Xinghuai? Yang Li? It turns out that Fifth Sister, you are talking about them. It was indeed me who captured her..." Before Song An could say anything, the fifth princess interrupted Song An and asked Zhu Fan who was standing aside.
.
"Master Zhu, what is the punishment for voluntarily executing an official of the imperial court?" The fifth princess was waiting for Song An's words. As long as Song An admitted that he had taken away Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li, Song An's trap today would be set.
Zhu Fan's face changed. Sure enough, Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li were a trap. The two losers were lost in Qingzhou. According to the personality of the fifth princess, it was impossible for them to live. But now they are not only alive, but also easily killed by Song An.
It is hard to say that there is no conspiracy in it.
"According to Daqi law..." Just as Zhu Fan was about to speak, Song An asked with confusion on his face.
"Fifth sister, it turns out that the two people you mentioned are them. How come the two criminals who escaped from the border became your people? Could it be that what they did at the border was all your doing?"
"You..." When Song An asked this question, the fifth princess Song Hongya was stunned. She didn't expect that Song An would bring this matter up.
Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li are her people, who doesn't know now?
Thinking of this, the fifth princess screamed in her heart, it's over, Song An's trap was planted.
"Father, I have no relationship with these two people. Even if I have some relationship, it is not the relationship that the seventh brother said. I have no idea what Wei Xinghuai and others did when he fought against Beimang." The fifth princess hurriedly said.
He said to Song Jiancheng with a gloomy face.
He asked why Song An didn't panic at all. It turned out that he had been waiting for her here. She had been wondering before why Song An let Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li go so easily, but it turned out to be a trap for him.
I want to set a trap for Song An, and Song An has been setting a trap for me. Now both sides seem to have fallen into the other side's trap.
Seeing the anxious look of the fifth princess, Zhu Fan felt a chill in his heart. Has Song An been trying to attract the attention of the fifth princess since then?
If this is really the case, this would be terrifying.
"Okay, let's end the matter of Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li! The two guilty ministers will die when they die. There is no need to mobilize troops and mobilize people like this!" Seeing this, Song Jiancheng became more and more troubled. Both of them were plotting against each other, but in the end
No benefit can be obtained.
If the entanglement really continues, both of them will have to be dragged out and beheaded.
"Father is wise!" After hearing this, Song An took advantage of the situation and stopped mentioning the matter.
Although the fifth princess and Jiang Yunxuan were unwilling to do so, as princesses, intervening in border affairs was also a capital crime. If they really continued to picket, they would have no benefit, so they could only give up.
What was originally a real crisis was solved so easily by Song An. Although Song An looked calm and calm on the outside, in his heart he was about to scold the fifth princess Song Hongya and Jiang Yunxuan to death. Song An was prepared to threaten them at the critical moment.
Yes, it's good now, because two hundred thousand gold is gone because of my mistake.
Presumably, Wei Xinghuai and Yang Li were already dead by this time, in his prison.
Zhu Fan stood aside and did not dare to speak. Although Song An was smiling, he could feel a coldness, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
"Okay, Zhu Fan, Song An will stay here for a while, and the others can leave!" Song Jiancheng didn't want to hear any more and directly issued an eviction order.
The fifth princess and Jiang Yunxuan looked at each other and left the imperial study room with cold faces. Jiang Yunxuan didn't speak until they left the palace.
"Now how to do?"
"What should I do? It seems that Song An has mastered something."
"Let's go find my second brother. If we don't join forces, we will be killed by him!"
