"The more you don't catch someone, the deeper you investigate. Since they are ready to deal with Concubine Hui, they must be ready, and we must strike while the iron is hot and let the five princes go into the fire pit by themselves. Li Shuci didn't feel good in his heart, whether this fire was really put by Concubine Hui, or the Lin family's first move, it was quite suspicious of disregarding people's lives. She said wistfully, "The prince is not here, and we really don't have many people to use." ”

Mu Yun was heartbroken, and glanced at her: "Why didn't the girl tell the prince about this, the prince and the girl also conspired together in the past, and now they may not be able to cooperate against the five princes." ”

Li Shuci didn't say much, she couldn't learn to be two-faced and three-faced, and she fell when she saw the wind. She can be generous in love and hate. But knowing that she would have to part ways in the future and draw a line with him, she didn't want to use this relationship anymore: "Qingge, help me get the cloak, let's go to Princess Duanmin." ”

"The girl is going to Mama Hua for help?"

"Well, there are a few other things that need to be determined. ”

In the afternoon, the government and his entourage asked about their eyebrows, and the folds of the imperial history platform flew to the front of the palace one after another.

In the imperial study, Emperor Xuwen glared at Liang Youxian fiercely, and Liang Youxian knelt on the ground with his head down, his forehead was full of cold sweat. He cut off contact with Concubine Hui on the night of the accident of the fifth prince, and it seems that all the informants fell into the void overnight and disappeared. All the messages can't be delivered and can't be delivered. He guessed in his heart, maybe the five princes were really going to be planted this time? He was still thinking about how to get in touch with Concubine Hui, and there was an accident in Qingshi Hutong over there, and as soon as he inquired about the whole thing, he was called to the palace by Emperor Xuwen, and a stack of folds smashed on him, smashing him dizzy.

"You tell me why all the spearheads are pointed at you Liang Youxian when it comes to the water in Qingshi Hutong?!"

Liang Youxian cold sweat dripped on the brick floor of the imperial study, "Minister...... The minister did not know. ”

Emperor Xuwen sneered: "You don't know?"

Quan Heng said at the door: "An Yuan waits, An Yuan waits for the prince, and the wife of the first product asks to see the king." ”

"Let them in!" Emperor Xuwen looked at Liang Youxian, "The bitter master has already come to the door, don't you still say that you don't know!"

"Parties?" Liang Youxian's heart suddenly burst into the hall, and he saw Lin Xiaoshan take Lin Changfeng and the Lin family into the main hall, "Your Excellency, the minister wants to come and ask in person, why did Lord Liang instruct Ling Gongzi to do such an arrogant and careless thing about human life! Not only to put his subordinates to death, but also to affect the innocent people around him!"

Emperor Xuwen was also angry, he had countless things to do, what did this Liang Youxian go crazy to actually go to burn the Lin Mansion? Liang Youxian listened to Lin Xiaoshan's words, and was stunned: "Liang Yun is in trouble again?"

"It has long been rumored that Lord Liang is not a gentleman, but now it seems that it is true, does Lord Liang still want to blame his own fault on his son?" Lin Xiaoshan immediately said angrily: "Qingshi Hutong walked in the water last night, and a number of people and others can testify, Ling Gongzi committed murder and arson, the evidence is conclusive! Lin Mansion and Ling Gongzi have no grievances, if it weren't for Lord Liang's instructions, could it be that Ling Gongzi is crazy?"

Huijing has kept the marriage book for Zhu Hanying for so many years, and the Lin family is naturally angry with her. Ever since Qiu Yunxian fell into her hands, she had already had a plan. Qiu Yunxian admired a son surnamed Wang, so she used this as a condition to instigate Qiu Yunxian to seduce Liang Yun as a maid of the Lin Mansion, and lured Liang Yun into the trap, causing the fire to burn directly in front of the king. No one except his father and brother would know about this matter, Qiu Yunxian had been wiped out at this time, and he was roasted alive in the fire last night.

Liang Youxian was born in the Liujun Sect, and naturally he also has a temper, and was inexplicably scolded by Lin Xiaoshan pointing his nose, and he couldn't suppress his anger at the moment, "Lord Lin made a lot of nonsense as soon as they met, Liang really didn't know how to offend Lord Lin, and let Lord Lin point at the nose of the subordinate like this and slander him?"

Lin Xiaoshan turned his face to the side, as if he disdained to distinguish with him, "Your Majesty, please also ask your lord to be the master and give the officials justice." Lin knelt straight in front of Emperor Xuwen at this time: "Your Majesty, the courtiers don't dare to speak falsely, but now the Lin Mansion has been cornered, and the courtiers have to explain everything, and please listen to the courtiers." ”

Emperor Xuwen frowned slightly, nodded in agreement, and Lin said: "Your Majesty, this matter is very important, and it also involves the secrets of the royal family, and I also ask you to retire from irrelevant people, and announce that Concubine Hui is here." ”

Liang Youxian stared at the Lin family violently, causing everyone to look at him, his heart had already turned a thousand times in a moment, hiding the fluctuations of his face, but Emperor Xuwen still faintly noticed a trace of unusualness, he frowned slightly, waved his hand and retreated from the inner servants, leaving only Zhu Daguan waiting by the side. "Concubine Xuanhui. ”

The sun and the moon can't shine into the most gloomy and strict punishment department in Dali Temple, the five princes looked at Wang Meiren who was hung up and beaten and questioned outside in the iron prison, and their hearts trembled, they didn't dare to do anything to him, because he was a prince and had the most noble blood in the world, but why did the mother concubine not move until now?

Wang Meiren's hands were tied high on the torture rack, her head was weakly tilted to the side, her eyes were weakly half-squinted, but she still looked at the five princes infatuatedly, and muttered in her mouth: "I have already said everything I should say, I made a private agreement with the five princes for life long before I became the woman of the king...... For the sake of the five princes, I am willing to die, we said that if we can't live together, we will die together, if you kill me, I will wait for him on Huangquan Road......"

The two iron whips took turns to whip her again, the tattered clothes and flesh and skin, the flesh and blood were blurryly glued together, but her words were still those few words, Wang Meiren closed her eyes, her expression seemed to cry and laugh, and she was sad and sad, she was in such pain, the figure of that person was still clear and clear, and he was still cold and clean in the splendid imperial city full of mud and filth. She worked hard to practice a smile and a smile, all so that the annual meeting could be appreciated by him, even if he let her enter the palace to die, she said with infinite joy: I do. The fifth prince heard her murmur again: "For you, I am willing to die." ”

"You madman!" The fifth prince listened to Wang Meiren's muttering over and over again, and what he said was the same as the truth, at first he could still sneer and look at Wang Meiren with disdain and talk nonsense, but as time was stretched a little bit, the hole in his heart had been gradually eroded by the darkness in the iron prison, and he became more and more weak and afraid, and he finally couldn't help but roar at Wang Meiren: "Who wants to die with you! Shut up! Shut up!"

Standing on the oblique side and watching this scene, his fingers moved slightly, turned to leave, and the prison guard waved his hand to let the executioner retreat, moved his gaze to the five princes, and said, "Your Highness, Niang Niang has sent you a letter." ”

The Fifth Prince looked at him vigilantly. The prison guard didn't say much, but stretched out his hand from his sleeve and showed him. The fifth prince's face changed, "Who are you??"

"Why does Your Highness need to know who the slave is, you just need to know that the slave is here to help His Highness out. The prison guard's face was calm, his words were clear, and he didn't drag the mud and water at all: "Concubine Hui Niangniang is now involved in recommending Wang Meiren, and it is even more difficult to speak for you. ”

"Then the concubine has other ideas now?" The fifth prince's face was pale, he had long known that the concubine was in the king's heart, and that little affection was about to be wiped out.

"The old slave was ordered to save His Highness out. The prison guard looked at the five princes and said without impatience: "The five palaces are so impatient, and they have caught people for nothing." Wouldn't it be troublesome if adding oil and vinegar to people reach the ears of the king? Now that the Confucian king is powerful, His Royal Highness must be more and more careful, and the disaster will come from the mouth!"

The fifth prince listened to his advice, and then looked at the things in his hand, and finally half-believed and half-questioned: "What does the mother concubine mean? Wang Meiren is going to die and has a personal affair with this prince, how can this prince get out?!"

"Your Highness is confused, Wang Meiren will definitely die, but it is impossible for the king to want your life because of Wang Meiren! Your Highness's affairs can be big or small, it all depends on the king's heart. But after all, Wang Meiren is the concubine of His Royal Highness, what happened to her, where is the dignity of the king?

For today's plan, you have to let your majesty take this step down first, so that Your Highness can see the light of day again!"

"So, you already have a workable plan?"

"Not bad...... The more the Fifth Highness quibbles, the more angry the King becomes, the two fathers and sons are so careless, and the Emperor can't get by, how can the Fifth Highness go out naturally? Therefore, it is not appropriate for the Fifth Highness to shirk the fault at this time, so many people are present, how can the Fifth Highness tell the difference?" The prison guard looked directly at the Five Princes: "What Wang Meiren just said, I don't know if you heard it clearly?" She said that she had made a lifelong agreement with the Five Princes before she became a concubine, and her love was deep-rooted. The fault of this matter is not Wang Meiren, let alone the five princes. It was Concubine Hui Niangniang who forcibly broke you up and introduced Wang Meiren to the king......"

"You mean, it's the mother's fault for this? Are you asking me to retreat the fault to the mother's concubine in order to get out?" The five princes had anger in their eyes, but they saw the prison guards continue: "You don't see the light of day here, the Confucian prince can stay above the court every day, stay by the king's side, the king's body doesn't dare to talk nonsense, but His Royal Highness should still have a number in his heart, in case he ...... during this period"

The face of the fifth prince changed, and he didn't dare to believe his words. Standing still and silent, the prison guard smiled slightly, and didn't seem to care whether he believed it or not, and said: "Mother is precious by child, as long as you are well, Concubine Hui will naturally be fine, at this time it is nothing to suffer some grievances, Your Highness should focus on the overall situation." At this point, the five princes should also think carefully. ”

After that, without waiting for the five princes to react, he put away the things in his hand and left steadily. The fifth prince looked at his back, clenched his fists, stood silent for a long time, gritted his teeth, and said, "Mother...... If it weren't for your soft-heartedness and hesitation, how could my son be so passive ...... now?"
