Chapter 216: Overturning the Case (I)
Ah Yao thought about this for several days.
It took several days just to pull myself out of the infinite entanglement of "where am I, who am I, what am I doing, and do Daddy Pei know what I'm talking about" - the main thing is really, fright.
She has always believed that there is an unbridgeable identity gap between her and Pei Shuo, if there is no accident, Pei Shuo will become the next founding marquis, and she is an ordinary cook, waiting for the opportunity to clear the grievances of the master, even if they have the bonds of the past and present lives, there are too many to be liquidated, but in this society's universal values, bamboo doors with bamboo doors, wooden doors with wooden doors, this is correct.
The rare phenomenon of a sparrow flying on a branch and becoming a phoenix is almost impossible for her.
So when Pei's father told her that she could marry into Houmen as long as she wanted, the whole person was stunned by pie from the sky.
There is no need to worry about whether they are worthy or not, she just needs to think about whether she is willing to spend her life with Pei Shuo?
Naturally......
The candlelight on the table was like beans, jumping, she lay on the table, thinking about it, if there was a bird's nest or Mochizuki present, seeing her eyebrows and eyes, cheeks red, from time to time couldn't help laughing, completely immersed in her own world, couldn't help but joke with her, their bright little cabbage was finally taken away by someone.
Ah Yao recalled what Pei Shuo said that day from the beginning, trying to remember what Pei Shuo's expression was on the side.
She couldn't remember Pei Shuo's expression at that time, but in the process of reminiscing, she remembered that Pei Shuo later added something that made her care so much.
He said: "But there is one thing I want you to know, Pei Shuo will never inherit the title of founding marquis. ”
It's impossible to take the knighthood!
How can it be?
Ah Yao stood up suddenly: "Oops, Pei Shuo was also present at the time. He must be very sad to hear his father say that!"
It's been so long, and I don't know how Pei Shuo will be sad, no, she has to go to Pei Shuo.
On the other hand, the Eldest Princess's Mansion.
“…… The founding marquis relieved of the plight of the capital, and all the main troublemakers were captured, and the priests, worshippers, fairies and fairies of the Good Law Sect were imprisoned in the heavenly prison. The mastermind Meng Qianxiu was captured by Pei Shuo, the eldest son of the founding marquis. The eldest princess held the book in her hand, distracted by the supervisor's report on the recent events. "The good law sect pretended to preach, under the banner of the heavenly immortals to save the world, recruited people, before the locust plague, they used special means to create a number of miracles, disperse the locusts, attracted many foolish people to follow, led by the good law fairy claimed to be the princess of the previous dynasty, and returned with the life of the phoenix. ”
"Oh?" the eldest princess looked up from her book, her eyes also aimed at the manager.
The chief manager understood, and continued: "She insisted that she was a relic of the previous dynasty and the daughter of Xue Guifei, and took out the royal token. Now the Criminal Department has transferred the case to Dali Temple and Zongren Mansion, and her identity is being verified. It's strange, didn't Xue Guifei die more than ten years ago. ”
He still remembered this noble concubine, who had been with the eldest princess for more than ten years, witnessing major changes in the court, and after that, the original concubines in the palace had changed places to live, and it didn't take long for an insignificant event to happen - the murder of the imperial kitchen.
In this case, Xue Guifei died.
"Xue Guifei, ......" The eldest princess also remembered that there was such a thing sealed in her memory.
The sound of kneeling on the ground interrupted the thoughts of the eldest princess and the steward, and the steward followed the voice, frowned, and said unhappily: "Sango, what about your proportions?"
The eldest princess's eyes were aimed at the bird's nest kneeling next to her.
Bird's nest kowtowed, and as soon as she heard the word Xue Guifei spit out from the mouth of the chief manager, she could no longer press it.
She originally thought that she might wait for a long time for the opportunity to overturn the case, so long that she would wait for her gray hair, maybe for the rest of her life, she couldn't wait for this opportunity, from the day she walked into the eldest princess's mansion, she was prepared for the worst.
Mochizuki went south to live in Fuhai, and people who were destined to become dependents eventually became dependents, and A-Yao went north, but there was also Pei Shuo, the eldest son of the founding marquis, by his side, according to the character of the little wolf cub, A-Yao would not have much of a problem. As for her, she was alone, so what did it matter.
She never thought that the opportunity would come so quickly, maybe it was God's mercy that was willing to leak through her fingers, and she had to seize this opportunity no matter what!
She knew exactly what she was doing, even if it was risking her life!
Bird's Nest's eyes were full of firmness: "Twenty years ago, Wu Imperial Kitchen was framed for poisoning and murdering Xue Guifei, resulting in Xue Guifei's death, the imperial chef, Shang Yi and a cadre of the Shang Food Bureau were implicated, and they were exiled to Northern Xinjiang and Nanling, if this person who claimed to be the princess of the previous dynasty was true, then Xue Guifei faked her death and escaped, and someone assisted her in getting out of the shell!
The eldest princess picked up the teacup, looked at it a few times, and twisted a piece of almond halva, the halva has a thick milky aroma, sweet and silky, and there is an almond inlaid in it, when chewed, the lips and teeth have both the sweetness and stickiness of cheese halva and the unique aroma and crispness of nuts.
The steward said, "That's why you're trying to get out on top." ”
"From the moment she took out the token and entered the eldest princess's mansion, the slave maid never concealed it. ”
The eldest princess chewed almond halva one after another, with a cup of tea, and left after eating, from beginning to end, she was silent.
Until the eldest princess walked away, the bird's nest was still kneeling there, but when the eldest princess took the initiative to cross her, she exuded a sad look, but it was by no means disappointed, as long as she did not die, she would never give up.
……
Zongren's House.
"In this way, this jade pendant is real, this princess...... Is it also true?" Mo Xingle looked at the jade pendant confiscated from Xue Nianzhi's hand, the jade pendant was transparent, the material was fine mutton fat white jade, and the lines were soft and carved with the four divine beasts, and there was a pattern in the middle of the four divine beasts, and they guarded the pattern in the middle.
The previous dynasty is only more than 20 years away from now, and there are still officials in the palace who have remained from the previous dynasty to the present, and they are very familiar with the genealogy of the emperors of the two dynasties. Since the jade pendant just arrived, they recognized at a glance that this jade pendant belonged to the children of the last emperor of the previous dynasty, only the children of the emperor, their jade pendant is the four divine beasts, if it is the prince and the king, the pattern of the jade pendant representing their identity is one of the nine sons of the dragon.
The strange thing is also here, the jade pendant is true, but the genealogy does not record this jade pendant and the owner of this jade pendant, and according to Xue Nianzhi's age, no new prince and princess were born more than ten years ago.
So how did this person come about?
She insisted that she was the princess of the former dynasty, and she didn't ask anything else. The officials of the Zongren Mansion were also helpless, "That's why we need your Dali Temple to assist." Whether the identity of this 'princess' is true or not, and how she came here, everything depends on you~"
"Oops, nerve-wracking. ”
"Your Excellency. Mo Xingle's subordinates hurriedly walked over and whispered in his ear, and then he smiled and bowed his hand to the officials of the Zongren Mansion: "I'm sorry, this official still has important matters to deal with, so I will leave first." ”
"Master Mo is easy to leave. ”
He nodded in greeting, turned around and strode away, leaving the Zongren Mansion, before he asked, "You said that the Eldest Princess's Mansion wants to report the case?"
