Soon, a pot of wine and a wine glass were placed in front of Wu Mei, and her tears were like rain, and her expression was very sad.

"Wu Mei, give you one last chance, what else do you have to say to me?" Yuan Ziyan asked in a loud voice.

Wu Mei wiped away her tears, thought for a while and said, "Mother-in-law, Baolai still has some personal belongings, I hope you can bring them to my family for me." And Your Majesty, let him forget Wu Mei, and don't mention his mother to Hong'er. ”

"That's all?" Yuan Ziyan felt very cold and asked, "Paulaine, don't you have anything to tell me?" ”

"Yes, I'll talk about it when I'm done drinking!" Wu Mei turned her heart sideways, poured out a glass of wine and drank it with her neck tilted suddenly, but she choked on it, coughed non-stop, stopped half-ringing, and asked sadly: "Mother-in-law, how long will this wine attack." ”

"Anytime."

"Mother-in-law, Paula did not live up to your cultivation, and I didn't kill the Liu family." Wu Mei raised her head and said quickly, lest she couldn't come up in one breath, even her stepmother didn't know the truth, Yuan Ziyan was sad, she knew that she didn't do it, squatted down, stretched out her hand to take her in her arms, and asked, "Why don't you explain it to Your Majesty and your stepmother as soon as possible?" ”

"Just because Bollywood went to a place that day, and he was very sensitive." Wu Mei sighed.

"Where exactly?" Yuan Ziyan hurriedly asked, "Even if you go to the ancestral hall, it's not a mortal sin." ”

Wu Mei shook her head and said, "I listened to my stepmother's words and wanted to make friends with some old people in the palace, and then I thought of Mrs. Taishi Ling Li. ”

Mrs. Lee? Yuan Ziyan was stunned, what Wu Mei said should be Chu Ling'er. But Chu Ling'er is her good sister, and it stands to reason that they should help each other, why didn't Wu Mei dare to mention her?

Wu Mei sighed: "I thought that Mrs. Li was commensurate with her stepmother and sister. Recently, I have heard that he lives in a simple place, and he already has the heart of the Buddha......"

"What, Ling'er believes in Buddhism?" Yuan Ziyan was very stunned, how could she believe in Buddhism, there must be something she couldn't think of, she only blamed herself for caring too little about her, and she didn't know such an important thing.

"I thought it would. I have more in common with them, but their attitude is rather cold, after a few visits. found that he had a lot of disdain for his stepmother. Wu Mei said.

Yuan Ziyan was slightly stunned, and then frowned, Wu Mei would not lie to herself at this time. "What did she say?"

"Mrs. Li didn't say anything, but I saw that the bedding, dishes, chopsticks, shoes, socks, etc. in her room were all single. It can be seen that Tai Shiling does not often go back to live. Wu Mei raised her eyes and glanced at Yuan Ziyan. I mustered up the courage to say: "Wu Mei is an outsider, and she boldly speculates that Tai Shiling has other women in her heart, so she is very cold to Mrs. Li, but she has no worries about food and clothing. ”

Yuan Ziyan was completely stunned, no need for Wu Meiming to say, she probably guessed that this other woman should be herself. recalled that Li Chunfeng risked being kicked out of the division and let go of the senior sister who was about to enter the palace. quarreled with his master Yuan Tiangang about this, and even left home. Attached to Li Tang, who was opposed to the Sui and Tang dynasties at that time.

Yuan Ziyan struggled to adjust his tone to a normal frequency, "In that case, why don't you say it?" ”

"As a woman, the stepmother is in charge of the court, and many people regard it as a thorn in the flesh, if such words are heard, and then some people add oil and vinegar to the rendering, the stepmother is not only dishonored, but may also be expelled from the palace." Wu Mei said with tears in her eyes.

Yuan Ziyan's heart stirred up a storm, and tears couldn't stop flowing: "Silly boy, you wouldn't rather die because of this, and don't say these unfavorable things to me, right?" ”

"Mother-in-law!" Wu Mei threw herself into Yuan Ziyan's arms and sobbed: "Bollywood is also afraid of death, but he is more than in love with His Majesty, and he gave birth to the emperor, these are all things that Bollywood didn't dare to think about before, this life is enough, why be greedy too much!" Even if a person dies, Bollywood dies as he deserves! ”

"Good boy, good boy." Yuan Ziyan hugged Wu Mei tightly, with mixed feelings in her heart, people's feelings are really complicated, and these sisters are separated and combined, after all, it is difficult to be satisfied, but fortunately, Wu Mei is always by her side and treats her sincerely.

Yuan Ziyan left the cell with a heavy heart and didn't say anything more, Wu Mei seemed to notice something, because she didn't have any adverse reactions at all, and she also realized that Yuan Ziyan did this on purpose, in order to find out the truth.

"Mother-in-law!" Wu Mei slapped the cell vigorously and shouted at the top of her voice: "I'm afraid that Paula's grievances can't be cleared up, and my stepmother will never be excluded for me in vain, stepmother!" ”

Yuan Ziyan smiled slightly, but her footsteps did not stop, she would not let herself be injured, let alone let Wu Mei die unjustly, since there is a truth in the matter, there will be a day when the truth will come out.

The suspects continue to be eliminated, and several Mrs. Orders have been confirmed to be drunk at night and have no possibility of committing crimes, so the biggest suspects are Princess Baling and Princess Gaoyang. Moreover, the two had close contact that night, and they talked for a long time when they met, and no one knew the details.

The famous merry princess Gao Yang, everyone knows her, so what is the origin of this Baling princess? Things have to start with Li Yuan.

Li Yuan was able to get the world because he gave birth to a group of outstanding and abnormal children! Yes, it is a child, in addition to his sons Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin and Li Yuanji, etc., there is also a third daughter, who is later Princess Pingyang.

At the beginning, Li Yuan's troops rose to Jinyang, and after the news leaked, his family in Chang'an was inevitably pursued by Sui Dynasty officials, but Princess Pingyang arranged her husband and brothers to the front line, but she herself stayed in the most dangerous rear, and she could be arrested anytime and anywhere.

But Princess Pingyang was calm and calm, disguised herself as a man, claiming that Li Gongzi had sold her family property, recruited hundreds of strong men, and then successfully escaped from the capital and joined her father.

And in three months, relying on his good eloquence and unique personality charm, he recruited five large-scale uprising teams, the number of which was as high as 100,000, and his power increased greatly!

It can be seen that Princess Pingyang has great courage, excellent organization and command ability, and strict discipline, enjoys high prestige in the army, and soon laid down a large territory for her father in Guanzhong. To say that the heroine, Princess Pingyang can be called the first person in history, Li Shimin is very happy, and after ascending the throne, she named her beloved daughter Princess Pingyang, homophonic "Pingyang", which shows the importance of her.

It's just that after the battle of Chang'an, the princess became seriously ill, and died of illness a few years later, Li Yuan was very sad, and insisted on burying it with military honors.

Princess Pingyang's husband Chai Shao is also among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, repelling the Turks and destroying the Liang Shidu, and he is also a bull.

This Baling princess is Li Shimin's daughter, and she is also the niece of Princess Pingyang, and her current identity is the daughter-in-law of Princess Pingyang.

The fate of this Baling princess is somewhat similar to that of Princess Gaoyang, both of them are concubines, and they are married to the second son of their in-laws, that is to say, there is no hope for inheriting the title, perhaps based on the above points, the two sisters are very close, to the point where they have nothing to talk about.

These second-generation officials and wealthy who live in the infinite aura of the previous generation are unwilling to lose their current glory, and they will inevitably have some excesses. Speaking of which, Princess Fangling was not as favored as Princess Gaoyang, so after some analysis, Yuan Ziyan concluded that Princess Gaoyang was more likely to commit the crime.

When there were less than two days left on the day set by the ministers, Yuan Ziyan got another clue, that is, early the next morning after the incident, the two princesses left the palace and returned to their respective mansions.

Yuan Ziyan's heart moved, if one of them was a murderer, he would definitely leave the palace with all the tools of the crime, and then burn it down.

According to this clue, Yuan Ziyan sent a letter to Li Shan, asking him to focus on the investigation of the two.

On this day, the eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, now that the time has come, Wu Mei deserves death for his crimes, and I hope that Your Majesty will endure the pain and cut love, avenge the dead, and the living feel at ease." ”

"I know!" Li Zhi waved his hand angrily and said, "Wu Mei is pregnant now, it's not too late to wait until she gives birth to a child!" ”

"I'm afraid that it will be delayed again and again, just like Wu Mei left the palace at the beginning, and it will end in the end!" The eldest grandson Wuji knelt down with a large group of people as he spoke, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister requests that Wu Mei be executed, even if it is not executed immediately, it will be announced to the world in an edict immediately!" ”

"Eldest grandson Wuji!" Li Zhi was furious, slapped the dragon chair and got up, and even shouted his uncle's name for the first time: "Are you forcing me?" ”

"Your Majesty, the heart of the minister can be seen by the sun and the moon!" The eldest grandson Wuji went out, and it seemed that he had to kill Wu Mei.

Yuan Ziyan spoke: "Lord Eldest Sun, I have found evidence that can prove that Wu Mei is not a murderer. ”

The hall was in an uproar, and the eldest grandson Wuji's face twitched violently, could it be said that Wu Mei was going to escape death again? "National Teacher, what is the evidence?"

"The stakes are so high that it is inconvenient to present them in court. However, after the dispersal of the dynasty, the eldest grandson and Chu can witness together. Yuan Ziyan said lightly.

Seeing that the national teacher is confident and calm, all the ministers guessed about the same, and they should be able to clear the suspicion for Wu Mei. The eldest grandson Wuji was very unwilling, and he was about to succeed, so that Yuan Ziyan would come up with tricks again. So he secretly gave Liu Zheng a look, Liu Zheng trembled all over, and seemed a little hesitant, but under the burning gaze of the eldest grandson Wuji, he still stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the reason why there are endless things in the back court is because of the fact that the prince has not been established. Now that Liu's fragrance is gone, King Chen regards the queen as his biological mother, and the queen has no children for many years, but there is no lack of virtue, and he can succeed King Chen, and canonized as the prince as the son of the middle palace. Liu Zheng said in one breath.

In fact, it is too much, it should be done step by step, so that Li Zhi also has a process of adaptation. But also, Li Zhi does not have a deep affection for King Chen, and it is a little ominous, and he is really a little unwilling to make such a child the prince. (To be continued......)
