The next morning, Lone Shadow reported the progress of the matter to Yang An. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sure enough, as Yang An expected, after receiving the evidence, Zhuang Taishi immediately entered the palace to meet the emperor, and then a team of soldiers from the Criminal Department left the palace non-stop and went to Long Qiushui's house to search for a letter from that year.

"My subordinates heard that the letter said that the Ling clan would be eliminated on the fifteenth day of February, and no one would be left alive. Long Qiushui should have received this letter before going to the Ling family, but there was no signature on the letter. ”

"If you see something unsightly, you naturally won't leave a signature," Yang An turned a page of the book and asked casually: "Can you find out what happened to the Ling family and the Long family?" ”

The subordinates only found out that a man named Chu Huai fled to a neighboring country and was rescued by the daughter of the Ling family, and later the two got married and had children, and he settled in the neighboring country. The person who committed the assassination that day was Chu Huai's eldest son, named Jinghua. The subordinates also knew that Chu Huai used to be one of Long Guofei's cronies. ”

Long Guofei is Long Yuer's father, the general of the dynasty.

"Master, look at the unsigned name in that letter, is it ......?"

"This matter has nothing to do with us," Yang An said lightly: "This time, the king just helped more than 100 lives to redress the unjust case, and by the way, he gave Taishi Zhuang a small favor, as for how the emperor wants to close the case, that is the emperor's business." ”

"What does the master mean that the emperor will only put the crime on Long Qiushui this time?" Lone Shadow asked cautiously.

Yang An said: "Have you heard a story that a dragon has five claws, and if you get rid of one of its claws, you will become a python." ”

Lone Shadow nodded half-knowingly, suddenly remembered something, and said: "There is another thing that my subordinates almost forgot to say, that traitor Long Qiushui was ruthless, and took advantage of the lack of attention from the Criminal Department to poison Jinghua in prison to death last night." ”

"Reliable information?" Yang An stopped what he was doing.

At this time, he didn't care about Jinghua's life, but for some reason the girl's depressed face appeared in his mind......

"Smack-"

In the main hall of Luan En Palace, a teacup fell to the ground from Cheng Jingjing's hand. Xiao Jinyuan, who inquired about the news a second ago, finally came back, but told them the news that Jinghua had died tragically in prison.

Although the two sisters of Yuexi and Huabian had already been mentally prepared, they still couldn't help but cry with their heads in their arms.

"Jinghua...... Really dead in prison? Cheng Jingjing couldn't believe what she heard, and asked blankly.

Xiao Jinyuan sighed and said: "The news is true, but don't be too sad, Jinghua did not sacrifice his life in vain this time, the emperor has sent people from the Criminal Department to find out the case of the Ling family's extermination of the clan that year, and the mastermind Long Qiushui and his comrades have been imprisoned in the prison and will be beheaded in the future." ”

"It's all my fault...... If I begged for Prince An more, Jinghua would not be poisoned......" Cheng Jingjing sat down on the chair in despair.

"Jingjing, don't blame yourself too much, this matter has nothing to do with you," Xiao Jinyuan looked at her distressedly, and said in a good voice: "Besides, if you hadn't run to King An overnight to ask for help, it is estimated that the Criminal Department would not have solved the case so quickly." I heard that the Criminal Department got an important piece of evidence last night, so the emperor sent someone to search Long Qiushui's mansion. ”

"Long Qiushui's imprisonment has something to do with Prince An?" Cheng Jingjing was surprised, she clearly remembered that Yang An refused her request for help coldly last night, why did she turn around and help her again?

"Yuexi, Huabian, your Ling family can be wronged this time, Aunt Qingfeng has contributed a lot, why don't you hurry up and thank her?"

At this time, Xiao Jinyuan said to the two sisters who were sad.

"The slave and maid have thanked my aunt," Yue Xi and Huapan both knelt on the ground, and said with tears: "Auntie's great kindness can only be reported in the next life, now that my brother is dead, and the clansmen are gone, we sisters do not plan to live, we can only make cows and horses for my aunt in the next life." ”

"You are now from this palace, how can you say that you will die?" Xiao Jinyuan hurriedly said to the two of them: "The two of you have special identities, this palace has decided to let Aunt Qingfeng take you out of the palace together, and from then on you will be a maid in An'an's Mansion, so that you can wait for your aunt, which can be regarded as repaying her great kindness." ”

"Auntie will dislike us sisters?" He asked.

Cheng Jingjing didn't want them to seek death, so she hurriedly said: "Of course I won't dislike it, our Youlan Courtyard just lacks a few people, you and Yuexi go over together, just don't worry about me going out to find someone." ”

"Thank you aunt, our sisters will follow my aunt wholeheartedly from now on and swear allegiance to the death!"

Looking at the loyal appearance of Yuexi and Huabian, and no longer had the idea of seeking death, Cheng Jingjing breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't want the Ling family's crime of cutting off their children and grandchildren to fall on her head.

After resting in Luan'en Palace for a few days, Cheng Jingjing took Yuexi and Huaban back to Anwang's Mansion together. Before the three of them left the palace, Xiao Jinyuan reluctantly grabbed her hand and said, "If you weren't for the maid of King An's Mansion, I really wanted to keep you in the palace." Although this harem is rich in clothes and food, but there is no one who can really speak, if you are free, you can come to the palace to accompany me. ”

"San'er, you have to be careful yourself," Cheng Jingjing said movingly: "There are many crises in this harem, if you encounter something that can't be solved by one person, you must find me and Miao, we will always be your good sisters." ”

"You take this bracelet," Xiao Jinyuan took off the colorful red agate bracelet on her wrist and stuffed it into Cheng Jingjing's hand: "You helped me escape this time, I don't know how to thank you, this thing is estimated to sell for a good price, if you like it, you can wear it yourself." ”

Cheng Jingjing saw that this bracelet was so beautiful and not polite, so she wrapped it in a handkerchief and said with a smile: "I have been in Anwangfu for so long, and it is the first time I have seen such a precious thing, so I should quickly accept it as an old book." ”

When the two saw that it was getting late, they said goodbye to each other.

When Cheng Jingjing returned to Youlan Courtyard, she happened to see Wen Miao wiping the piano. Seeing her return safely, the other party happily threw down the rag and greeted her.

"You're back, I haven't heard from you these days, and I don't dare to ask the prince, I thought you ......" Wen Miao wiped away tears as she spoke.

Cheng Jingjing hurriedly coaxed her: "The matter has long passed, but I was lazy and played in the palace for a few days." You see, I also brought you two maids back, and our Youlan Courtyard will never be deserted again. ”

"Aren't you the palace maids who acted that day?" Wen Miao looked curiously at the painting and Yuexi.

The two sisters respectfully saluted her, and said obediently: "Say hello to Mrs. Wen, and we sisters will wait for Mrs. and Aunt in the future." ”

"Everyone is sisters, don't be so polite, just treat each other sincerely."

After Wen Miao broke away from the two maids, she pulled Cheng Jingjing to the bedroom to talk.

"Since Long Qiushui was imprisoned, the Dragon Princess has been in a slump, and I heard that she was too sad and kept herself in the room. Jingjing, you are more or less involved in this matter, so don't provoke the people over there in Furong Courtyard during this time. ”

After listening to Wen Miao's words, Cheng Jingjing said indignantly: "That Long Qiushui deserves it, what is there for her Long Yu'er to be sad, is the emperor still wrong to blame him?" ”

"Anyway, don't provoke her," Wen Miao suddenly noticed the bracelet on Cheng Jingjing's hand and asked, "When did you buy such a beautiful bracelet?" This material should be made of agate, right? ”

Cheng Jingjing said happily: "It was given to me by San'er, I originally wanted to put it in the cabinet, but I saw that this bracelet was very good-looking, so I wore it." ”

"No wonder this bracelet doesn't look like a vulgar thing, it turns out to be something used by the concubine."

Wen Miao looked a little lonely, and muttered to herself: "I really envy your sisterhood......
