Changning also turned his head at this time, and saw that several Royal Forest Soldiers were not advancing but retreating, and they immediately became angry.

"What are you doing? What did this palace do when you brought you? ”

Princess Changning was like this, and the faces of several royal forest soldiers showed even more fear, and they were almost unable to advance or retreat.

"County Lord," one of them clasped his fist at Ji Xiaotang and lowered his voice to speak, "We are also on the order of the princess." I'll just stand outside the house, so as not to collide with the county lord, and I can be regarded as having completed the princess's task. ”

The Imperial Forester said this, and his face showed a little flattery.

They want to listen to Princess Changning, but they can't offend the county lord of Anle ruthlessly.

Ji Xiaotang refused to let him take a step.

She let Changning break in, Changning is a woman, everyone knows that they are always friends, and Changning is still that kind of temperament, so it is better to think of Changning as a character. However, if the Guards were allowed to climb this step, even if they didn't enter the house, the nature would be a little different.

Even if others would think of this as Changning's trick, Ji Xiaotang himself didn't think so.

"My lords, my words have been made very clear. Unless, a few adults can come up with a holy decree. Ji Xiaotang said this, and his face was even more solemn, "My father and uncle are all officials of the imperial court, and I am also the county lord of the imperial court. Without His Majesty's holy decree, trespassing on the private residence of officials and trespassing into the boudoir of the county lord, how to judge the crime, a few adults don't need to talk about it. ”

Ji Xiaotang not only did not give in, but his attitude became tougher.

Needless to say than Ji Xiaotang said, a few Imperial Forest soldiers could not know the law of the imperial court. Obviously. In this case, they can't please both sides.

The faces of several royal forest soldiers showed bitter colors.

However, this stalemate. Nor does it solve the problem. The appearance of the county lord of Anle is that he will never give in. Several of the Kings exchanged glances with each other and finally made a decision.

"If you are offended, your subordinates will retreat." Several Imperial Forest Soldiers saluted Ji Xiaotang with fists and quickly exited Yanhua Hall.

"You ......" Changning saw this scene, and his angry hands trembled. She trembled and pointed at the backs of several people, "You are so bold. Do you listen to this palace, or listen to her Ji Xiaotang? When I get back, I'll kill your dog right away. ”

Wait for her voice to land. A few of the Guards were long gone.

"Princess, please speak in the house." Only then did Ji Xiaotang turn around and say to Changning.

Changning looked at Ji Xiaotang, and Ji Xiaotang did not have the slightest smug look on his face, which was no different from when he saw Changning just now. Changning thought suddenly. She barged in. First, she was angry, and secondly, she was to catch Ji Xiaotang off guard, and take a good look at Ji Xiaotang's residence, a few Royal Forest Soldiers were not there, it didn't affect anything, and it was completely too late for her to go back and clean up those few.

The most important thing now is to check Ji Xiaotang's house.

Thinking so, Changning snorted coldly. beckoned the palace maid who was with her to come forward, and stepped into the upper room of Yanhua Hall.

Changning didn't care. didn't stay in the living room, and went straight to Ji Xiaotang's study.

Ji Xiaotang followed unhurriedly.

Ji Xiaotang's study is very neatly tied, a piece of rosewood furniture, against one side of the wall is a few rows of bookshelves, densely placed on the books, as soon as people enter the room, they can smell the faint aroma of paper and ink, against the other side of the wall, there is a piano table, on the piano table is a piano, covered with bright yellow silk.

Under the window, there is a large case, and the books on the big case are almost piled up.

"Princess, please be seated." Ji Xiaotang let Changning look around, and asked Changning to sit down in front of the bookcase. "The princess is angry again, and when she comes to me, she should also sit down and have a cup of tea, and explain the matter clearly, so that I can understand."

Ji Xiaotang was generous, without the slightest anger or fear.

It's that Changning's personality is too violent, and in the face of Ji Xiaotang, he slowly calmed down. She didn't sit in the seat given by Ji Xiaotang, but went straight to the back of the bookcase, and sat in Ji Xiaotang's seat.

"What are these?" Changning asked while looking through the file on the bookcase.

"This is the file of the case that Prince An and General Qi are investigating." Ji Xiaotang told the truth.

Changning's hand froze, and a pair of eyes stared at Ji Xiaotang, as if he was about to burst into flames and burn Ji Xiaotang to the ground.

"You're helping Ayo?"

"My father was also among the subordinates who investigated the case, and because I was literate, and I was in a deep boudoir, I would not leak secrets, so he handed over these files to me to sort out. King An and General Qi should know about this matter. ”

Ji Xiaotang had roughly guessed Changning's intention, but he did not shy away from Qi Younian's name.

"You're not helping the fourth brother, you're not helping your father, you're helping Ayou!" Changning used an affirmative tone, and at the same time, his eyes stared at Ji Xiaotang fiercely without blinking.

"Princess, if I say that I am helping the Queen Mother and Your Majesty, will the princess believe it or not?"

"You can talk, and this palace was almost deceived by you." Changning hated the authentic way.

"Why did the princess say that. Where did I deceive the princess? Ji Xiaotang asked.

Changning stared at Ji Xiaotang for another moment, and suddenly smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, and he looked cold and cold, which made people feel cold.

"You are so familiar with Ayou, and you have a good impression of him, you speak for him everywhere, I originally thought that it was because Ayou saved you and saved your family, and you knew how to repay it. I didn't expect that it was you who had a love for Ayou, coveted Ayou, and tried in vain to seduce Ayou and let him marry you. …… Ji Xiaotang, do you dare to swear to you, saying that when you were in Qingyuan, you didn't have a regular relationship with Ayou! ”

Changning said these words and continued to stare at Ji Xiaotang, his eyes flashing with brilliance, as if to say, "I have learned the whole truth, don't try to deceive me again!" ”

"General Qi is stationed in Ren'an, and my maternal grandfather also serves in Ren'anwei and is good friends with General Qi. When I went to my grandfather's house, I met General Qi, and after that, because of the relationship between the Xie family and the thieves, the family had contacts with General Qi. If the princess is referring to that, then yes. Ji Xiaotang said solemnly.

Who did Princess Changning listen to? If she and Qi Younian often correspond?

Zhang Lirong?

But Zhang Lirong was already in the hands of those people, why didn't she tell Changning sooner or later. It's at this time!

Yes, why not at this time!

Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is intended for Pei Gong, and at this time, let Princess Changning attack her and make a fuss, which can greatly hinder the progress of the investigation. Obviously, the people behind it have enough clues to know that she has a pivotal position in this matter.

She can not only influence Qin Zhen, but also Qi Younian. Not to mention the impact on the Ji family.

Those people can't deal with Qin Zhen directly, nor can they directly deal with Qi Younian, and guiding Princess Changning to deal with her is indirect and not suspicious. But it is a very effective tool.

Behind this incident is the black hand behind the fraud case with the science field.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't let these people's intentions succeed.

"You really knew Ayou for a long time, why didn't you say it before?"

"Didn't I say it before, I seem to have told the princess about my grandfather."

Changning frowned and thought about it. Ji Xiaotang said that Mu Hong was also in charge of the security guard. He is a colleague with Qi Younian and is a good friend. At that time, because of this little incense, she had a better impression of Ji Xiaotang

Ji Xiaotang didn't explicitly say that she and Qi You had known each other for a long time, but after hearing her say these words, it was easy to guess.

"You didn't tell me directly!" Changning still questioned Ji Xiaotang, but his tone was not as fierce as Fang Cai.

"That's not necessary." Ji Xiaotang said.

"Even if what you say is true, Ayou always goes to your house, that's always right. You covet the horses of this palace. has a personal affair with the horse of the main palace, and Ayou is a member of the palace! ”

Changning is like this. There's hardly a bit of a princess anymore.

"General Qi always goes to my house, who said this? Ask the princess to call him, and then ask the princess to call the steward brought by my family from Qingyuan, and confront each other. General Qi was in military affairs, except for staying in Qingyuan for a few days when he exterminated the Xie rebels, the rest of the times he went to Qingyuan were very limited, and at that time, he also had to monitor and investigate the Xie rebels. ”

In this way, Ji Xiaotang said with confidence.

She and Qi Younian have been gathering less and leaving more, and every time Qi Younian goes to Qingyuan, there must be important business.

"You still won't admit it!" Changning's eyes were red with anger, she hesitated slightly, and finally couldn't help it, "Don't tell me, you don't have ......"

Ji Xiaotang listened to Changning angrily accusing her, saying how she and Qi Younian had a private meeting in Ji Mansion, which even mentioned her birthday, and depicted the situation of her private meeting with Qi Younian.

Not only that, but also several scenes of Ruyi Garden are not bad at all. If it weren't for someone who was very familiar with Ruyi Garden, he wouldn't be able to say it at all.

However, Ji Xiaotang quietly listened to Changning's words, not only did he not panic, but his heart became more stable.

"Princess, is the one who told you this, could it be that he is a storyteller, or a singer?" Ji Xiaotang asked Changning, with a curious and amused look on his face.

"Y-How do you know?" Changning was stunned by Ji Xiaotang's question, and then reacted, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Said that the part of my private meeting with General Qi, the princess doesn't feel familiar when she listens to it? That's clearly the story in the script and the play. Ji Xiaotang said. How could she and Qi Younian ever do something like that! It sounds funny.

"Y-you don't admit it." Changning looked at Ji Xiaotang, although he didn't want to admit it, but he calmed down a little and thought about it, what Ji Xiaotang said actually made some sense.

Those meaty conversations and private meetings are indeed played in the play.

Could it be that those two people were really coaxing her?

But where do they have such guts? And, why did they coax her?

"I haven't done it, why should I admit it." Ji Xiaotang said lightly, "However, what the princess said is also somewhat true." ”

"You're admitting it again?"

"Of course not." Ji Xiaotang was calm and calm, "The princess mentioned Ruyi Garden, and the person who wants to tell the princess these words is familiar with our Ji family." If you haven't been to Ruyi Garden in person, you have often heard people talk about it. ”

So......

"Come to think of it, which of my old friends has arrived. Can the princess refer me? Ji Xiaotang looked at Changning.

Changning felt a little confused in her heart for a while, although she thought that what Ji Xiaotang said was more reasonable. But full of jealousy, she refused to give up.

"Ji Xiaotang, don't divert the topic. I ask you if you have a private relationship with Ayo? Changning kept a straight face and continued to ask Ji Xiaotang.

"Princess, General Qi is in the army, when he left, where he went, and all traces are recorded. With the power of a princess. It's not hard to find. Ji Xiaotang told Changning calmly. Qi Younian was in the Ren'an Army, and he was not a consul general at that time, so he could not leave the garrison without permission.

About this. Changning is a princess, and she is very concerned about Qi Younian, of course she knows. It's just that before Ji Xiaotang said these words, she had never thought about this.

"I'll look it up." Changning said. Changning at this time. has already believed Ji Xiaotang for eight or nine points. It doesn't have the momentum of Fang Cai anymore.

"So, what about the confrontation?" Ji Xiaotang asked.

Ji Xiaotang was not only not afraid of confrontation, but was very active, which made Changning's suspicion of Ji Xiaotang a little less. Despite this, Changning did not answer Ji Xiaotang's words.

"Do you know where I'm from?" Changning suddenly asked Ji Xiaotang.

"The princess didn't come from the palace?"

"I'm from the palace, but before I came here, I went to another place."

Ji Xiaotang didn't speak. She knew that Changning would continue to talk.

"I went to the Mighty Marquis Mansion!" Changning said proudly.

Ji Xiaotang sighed.

Changning thought that Ji Xiaotang's reaction was too bland.

"I went to see Ayo. Ayo did not ask for permission to marry me. Instead, he begged for grace and asked Han Kerang to investigate this case. You, do you think that Ayou doesn't want to marry me?! Changning stared at Ji Xiaotang with wide eyes.

"I didn't think so." She didn't think so, because she knew that Qi Younian had no intention of marrying Changning in the first place.

"That's what you think." Changning was stubborn.

This is also a pimple that has formed in Changning's heart since Qi Younian's return. She was eagerly looking forward to Qi Younian begging Emperor Longqing for marriage in the court, but that day, she also hid from others and secretly followed to the main hall, just behind the main hall to eavesdrop on the front talk, she wanted to hear Qi Younian say that he wanted to marry her.

However, the truth made her extremely disappointed.

She returned to the harem almost crying. She believes that she has become the laughing stock of the women in Beijing and even the world.

Although Empress Dowager Han and Emperor Longqing comforted her, Qi Younian would ask for a decree in the end, but she was still dissatisfied in her heart. She left the palace without permission and arrived at Deyue Tower.

Originally, she wanted to distract herself, maybe she would talk to Ji Xiaotang again to relieve her boredom, but in Deyue Tower, she met those two people.

The two people told her that Qi Younian and Ji Xiaotang had a personal affair for a long time.

The reason why Qi Younian did not ask for a decree to marry her was entirely because of Ji Xiaotang.

Those two people know the affairs of the Ji family very well, so she can't believe it.

She originally wanted to kill Ji Xiaotang directly, but halfway through, she changed her mind and went to find Qi Younian first.

She asked Qi Younian if he would like to marry her.

Qi Younian's answer almost broke her heart. Qi Younian told her that his heart for her had not changed. They are cousins, and Qi Younian has always treated her as a little sister.

Between brothers and sisters, there will naturally be no marriage.

Qi Younian was telling her that he didn't want to marry her.

Changning had nowhere to vent his anger and jealousy, so he thought of Ji Xiaotang here, so he simply brought someone to kill him, and when he arrived at the gate, he didn't let anyone report it, and went straight into Yanhua Hall, wanting to catch Ji Xiaotang off guard.

She did it, and Ji Xiaotang was obviously not prepared.

She failed to find the slightest flaw in Ji Xiaotang, and what Ji Xiaotang said was obviously more credible.

Ji Xiaotang saw Changning silent, and while looking at Changning's face, he knew that today's crisis was over.

However, it doesn't end there.

"Prince An and General Qi were ordered to investigate the case, and the old case is said to be widely implicated, and everyone has long expected that there will be many obstacles in the process of investigating the case. It's just that Prince An and General Qi must not have thought that the fork would come out of me. Ji Xiaotang said slowly, but very clearly.

"What do you mean?" Changning immediately came back to his senses and asked Ji Xiaotang.

"If I can't win the trust of the princess today, what is the princess going to do with me?" Ji Xiaotang did not answer the rhetorical question.

Changning did not answer.

Her original plan was to determine that Ji Xiaotang was indeed having an affair with Qi Younian. She is about to demolish Ji Xiaotang and this Yanhua Hall.

Yes, this is Changning's way of doing things. Ji Xiaotang is the county lord, and Xinhuatang is the residence of the imperial court. However, she wanted Ji Xiaotang to die, and she wanted to smash the mansion of the imperial court, and she didn't need a will at all.

But now, she is convinced that Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian have no personal relationship, no matter what, she can't tell Ji Xiaotang the truth.

Therefore. Changning just snorted coldly and didn't respond.

And Ji Xiaotang also knew the answer.

"The princess must not give up, I am only afraid of bad luck today. I'll just pay it myself. However, if something happens to me, it will inevitably affect my father, and then it will affect Prince An, General Qi, and finally affect it. It is the process of investigating the case. Ji Xiaotang told Changning about his analysis.

Changning frowned slightly. Obviously, he listened to Ji Xiaotang's words.

"Prince An had long expected that those people would not be able to go to the front of the screen by themselves, and they would use borrowed knives to kill people. However, Prince An must not have thought that what they wanted to borrow was the princess's knife. Ji Xiaotang continued.

Changning's brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

"Damn!" Changning slapped the table, "These sluts dare to take advantage of me!" ”

The princess said. Those people who told the princess that I had a private relationship with General Qi? Ji Xiaotang immediately asked. Clearly, there is more than one person.

Changning looked at Ji Xiaotang. Although she believed Ji Xiaotang's words, her suspicious temperament and nowhere to vent her jealousy made her still unable to fully trust Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang already knew a little about Changning's mood, and knew in his heart that even if Changning believed her temporarily, but after this incident, the rift between the two had formed, and I was afraid that it could not be repaired.

Even so, she still has to try her best to fight for Changning.

On the one hand, she can't let Changning make trouble at such a time and hinder the investigation of the case, on the other hand, she also has to catch the person who told Changning behind her back.

If you can follow the vine, you might be able to catch a big fish or two! There may be a breakthrough in the fraud cases that are currently being investigated.

"Yes, that's them." Changning hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said.

"The princess must have kept them and didn't let them escape." Ji Xiaotang asked again.

"Of course not." Changning said immediately, as if Ji Xiaotang's words were an insult to her.

"Then can the princess take me to get these two men?" Ji Xiaotang asked, "This is not my business alone, this is a major matter related to the investigation of the case." ”

Changning raised his eyebrows and looked at Ji Xiaotang.

"What does the princess want?" Ji Xiaotang observed the words and asked.

Changning didn't speak, but he was figuring with the file on the bookcase.

Ji Xiaotang realized.

"This matter, since it is related to the investigation of the case, it is not trivial, so it is natural to invite Prince An and General Qi to come with me." Ji Xiaotang said.

Changning's eyes lit up.

Ji Xiaotang can help investigate the case, as a princess, she is only better than Ji Xiaotang, and of course she can help investigate the case more.

Of course, she had little interest in the investigation itself. But this can help Qi Younian.

As long as she is good enough to Qi Younian, she will be able to move Qi Younian one day. Moreover, if Qi Younian doesn't marry her, who else can he marry. Even if he really wanted to marry someone, then she would go and kill that person. In the end, Qi Younian still had to marry her.

"I'm going to investigate the case with you." Changning said what she wanted.

Ji Xiaotang smiled.

"This kind of thing, what is the use of the princess telling me, naturally I should tell Prince An. Thinking about it, Prince An will definitely be very happy. ”

"Fourth brother is happy or not, I don't care, I just want Ayou to be happy." Changning said.

The two quickly reached an agreement, and immediately ordered to go down and ask people to invite Qin Zhen and Qi Younian, and at the same time go to Deyue Tower to arrest people.

“…… It is two official prostitutes, I also invite you to watch their singing and dancing, saying that they came from Qingyuan, and they used to serve in your family, but on the day of the Xie family's rebellion, they were taken away and later sold as official prostitutes. Changning also told Ji Xiaotang the identities of the two informants.

"I wasn't even impressed." Ji Xiaotang said.

"There must be a lot of people in your family who serve, and you will remember it everywhere." Changning didn't care.

"Not so." Ji Xiaotang shook his head, "There was indeed a loss of population in the family that day, but afterwards, the housekeepers carefully investigated, no matter whether they live or die, everyone has a whereabouts, when will such two people come out?" ”

"So, their identities are also fake, pretending to be people who serve in your family?" Changning was also surprised.

"Very likely." Ji Xiaotang nodded, "Wait for someone to catch it in a while, and you will naturally be able to see it." ”

Because he wanted to recognize people, Ji Xiaotang ordered to go down and found a few old stewards from Qingyuan.

Soon, someone outside came in to report that Prince An and General Qi were here, and the two official prostitutes were also brought together.
