As a concubine, Wen Ranran served Jiang Yan a bowl of tea with a gentle, kind and generous attitude.
"The family has always been poor, which makes Master Jiang laugh!"
Xia Lishuang blew the tea in the cup and said with a smile.
Jiang Yan held the cup and looked at the powdered tea leaves in the cup, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Although these seven princes are the sons of the current Queen Tao, Queen Tao is the Queen Anguo whose country has been destroyed.
After Anguo was defeated in the war, he was taken to the palace by the emperor because of his beauty.
The emperor favored her so much that he would not hesitate to make her the queen even if an old minister tried to dissuade her.
It is precisely because of this that Xia Lishuang has not been favored by some senior officials since she was a child.
He also knew that Prince Yujun was poor, but he was not so poor, right?
"The tea in the prince's palace is really special!" Jiang Yan tried to flatter him first, "The concubine is also a virtuous and virtuous woman who makes good tea!"
Wen Ranran raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and said with a smile: "This tea is called Gypsophila. Please try it, sir?"
Jiang Yan didn't doubt that he was there and took a sip, his face twisted.
Bitter and astringent, what a gypsophila!
This is clearly tea leaves!
"Your Majesty, I have just received the order. Your Majesty wants me to assist you in re-investigating the Wan Guangsheng case!"
Jiang Yan straightened his sleeves and tried to keep his facial expression as calm as possible.
Xia Lishuang was a little surprised.
Ran Ran had told him about Wan Guangsheng's case before when he was in prison.
But, according to this time, he should be executed in a few days, right?
His father now signaled him to take over the case, was it to reverse the case for Wan Guangsheng?
No wonder Wan Guangsheng was able to stay in prison unscathed for so long without being killed. It seems to be because his father kept him safe.
Wan Guangsheng is closely related to Wu Shisan. If he comes forward to testify, Xia Yanyan will be unable to stand up.
The three princes currently in the capital, the prince and the eldest princess are colluding, and Xia Liyuan's biological mother is of low status, so they are not suitable to handle this matter.
The only one who can take over this hot potato is yourself.
Is your father trying to build momentum for himself?
Xia Lishuang thought for a while and then nodded.
"Okay, leave the token with me, and you can leave."
Jiang Yan wiped the sweat from his forehead. The tea foam in his mouth was bitter and boring. He didn't dare to stay longer, so he hurriedly left and prepared to rinse his mouth.
After Jiang Yan left, Wen Ranran jogged over.
"Ms. sir, do you really want to investigate Wan Guangsheng's case?"
Wen Ranran's eyes were bright.
Xia Lishuang nodded.
Now that they had decided to investigate the case, the two of them did not delay and went directly to the Ministry of Punishment Prison with their tokens.
…
The prison was pitch dark, with only the torches on both sides lit.
Wan Guangsheng was half-lying on the moldy thatch, looking haggard and still looking as gray and fearless as ever.
Seeing Wen Ranran and Xia Lishuang actually laughed.
"I didn't expect that it would be the prince and his concubine who were sending me on my last journey!"
Wen Ranran raised her eyebrows, "Do you really want to die that much?"
"Am I left to my own devices whether I die or not? I have nothing left to cherish in my life..."
Wan Guangshang sighed, his voice trembling a little.
Why is this Master Wan trembling when he speaks, as if he is suppressing some kind of pain?
Wen Ranran was suspicious and asked the jailer on the side to open the cell door.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the cell door opened, Wan Guangsheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and a pair of hands that looked like dead wood grabbed her.
"careful!"
Xia Lishuang hugged Wen Ranran and managed to avoid the opponent's unorganized attack, then kicked Wan Guangsheng into the corner.
Wan Guangsheng gasped heavily from the kick, but his eyes were fixed on the two of them.
"Ms. sir! Stop him first!"
Wen Ranran looked at Wan Guangsheng's skinny body, her eyes moving slightly.
Xia Lishuang nodded, and directly cut back, firmly subduing Wan Guangsheng.
Wan Guangsheng's eyes widened, and his eyeballs were bloodshot.
