Nanchuan, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Today, the Prime Minister's Mansion is full of joy, with red lanterns hanging all over the eaves of the corridor, and bright red happy characters pasted all over the curtains. This arrangement is only because today is the day of the marriage of the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

In the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Li Feng and his daughter Li Yao stood opposite each other, and a man wearing a cloak sat on a chair next to him. The faces of the three of them were solemn, as if the festive atmosphere outside the house had nothing to do with them.

"Yao'er, today is your big day, how can you be so nonsense?" Prime Minister Li Feng slapped the table and glared at the pair of children.

"Mother, I'm afraid this marriage won't work out." Li Yao clenched her hands into fists, her face turned red, and Concubine Ange, who had sneaked out of the palace on the side, slowly spoke.

"An'er, at such a time, why did you come out of the palace. If Your Majesty knows, what is the crime? Li Feng looked at this son and daughter who were not angry, and he was angry.

Today was the day of great joy for Li Yao of the Prime Minister's Mansion to marry Yin Liangshuang, the second son of the Taifu Mansion, but Li Yao was informed by someone as soon as she got up early in the morning that Su Rui's body was hung on the wall of her courtyard at some point. And there were no other scars other than her saber stuck in her chest. Li Yao's courtyard was next to the street, and the body was hung on the courtyard wall, what was the difference between it and the public. Early in the morning, when the peddlers' pawns were the busiest, I thought that the news should have been transmitted back to Su Fu.

"My lord, the Taifu Mansion has delivered news that the second son of her family will not marry a disciple who cares about people's lives, and he can't climb the Prime Minister's Mansion, so the marriage will be stopped." Outside the study, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion hurriedly came to report.

"Miss, Su Fangfu's body was taken away by the official mission of Gyeonggi Prefecture, saying that Gyeonggi Prefecture Yin received a report from Su Shaoqing." Outside the door, news also came from the people in Li Yao's courtyard.

Tuk tuk... There was a knock on the door.

"Your Excellency..."

"What's the matter? Can you finish it all at once? ”

Li Yao heard the knock on the door, stepped forward to open the door angrily, and yelled first. The two news of being divorced and Su Rui's body being taken away have already made Li Yao irritable.

"The eldest lady forgives me, these people are from Gyeonggi Mansion, come to invite the eldest lady to go to the court" was shouted with a split head and face, and the housekeeper of the Li Mansion bowed his head and said.

Outside the study, behind the housekeeper of the Li Mansion stood several women dressed as officials, with thick waists and strong bodies, with a murderous look on their faces. The leader pushed away the housekeeper of the Li Mansion in front of him with one palm, stepped forward without saying a word, and directly took out the shackles and handcuffed them to Li Yao's hands.

"Presumptuous, you dare to shackle the little girl, the little girl hasn't been convicted yet!" With an angry roar, Li Feng walked out of the study and stepped forward to stop the official's movements. Because Concubine An sneaked out of the palace, it was inconvenient to come forward, so she could only stay in the study.

"Prime Minister Li, the little one is also under orders. Su Shaoqing of Dali Temple came to our Gyeonggi Yamen early in the morning to report the case, saying that the eldest lady of the Li Mansion killed her husband Su Rui and displayed the corpse in a grand manner. By the way, this matter has been reported to Her Majesty the Empress, and Her Majesty will strictly investigate it. Therefore, Prime Minister Li Cheng, Miss Li, the little one acted impartially and offended. The leading woman holding the shackles was neither humble nor arrogant, and after bowing, she tied the shackles to Li Yao's hands, and took the person away.

"Mother, Mother, I didn't kill anyone, save me... Save me... Li Yao, who was taken away, was escorted away by the Gyeonggi Provincial Government, and kept calling for help along the way.

Yin Zhaopei of Gyeonggi Prefecture is a subordinate of those old ministers of the neutral faction on the surface, but in fact, she is a pawn arranged by Nangong Liuyun to enter the neutral faction. This chess piece has been laid out for more than ten years. This time, if it weren't for maximizing the situation, I didn't think about calling this chess. Who let His Royal Highness King Yun be ambushed and need to recuperate, all the people in the Cloud King Mansion are closed in the mansion, and this matter has nothing to do with the Cloud King Mansion.

Gyeonggi Province Yamen, Inner Hall.

"Brother Yan, what does Your Highness command?" A woman in an official uniform leaned over, and in front of her was a middle-aged man in black, and the golden shadow words were particularly dazzling on her chest.

"Zhao Pei, I've wronged you all these years. The master said that if this matter should continue to ferment and spread, it would be best to make the Su and Li families incompatible. After the indifferent Shadow Death sent Nangong Liuyun back to the room, Nangong Liuyun gave him a token belonging to the Cloud King and asked him to come and enable Zhao Pei. The master was right, what the master wanted was the Su family's Li family's dog to eat the dog.

"Brother Yin, Zhao Pei's life was given by His Royal Highness, and Zhao Pei naturally did his best for what His Highness ordered." The woman in the official uniform said frankly.

Back then, Zhao Pei went to Beijing to study, but was intercepted and killed by bandits, and happened to meet Nangong Liuyun, who fled out of Nanchuan with the shadow guard. At a young age, Nangong Liuyun was not afraid of the mountain bandits, rescued her from the mountain bandits' knife, and sent someone to escort her to the capital to participate in the scientific expedition. She Zhao Pei is not a chivalrous and good person, on the contrary, she is a villain who will repay her. No one in the capital knows that once you enter Gyeonggi Mansion, the gods and ghosts will not escape. But even if she is notorious, she will not forget the grace of saving her life.

"Very well, the shadow will take his leave first." The words of the shadow have already arrived, so naturally they will not stay long.

"My lord, Lu Zhutou has already brought the culprit back, Su Shaoqing asks your lord to go back to the court immediately." As soon as the shadow died left the inner hall, there was a master outside the door to report.

"Okay, I've been bothering Su Shaoqing for a long time, and the official will go back." Zhao Pei tidied up his official uniform and walked back to the front court with his master.

Gyeonggi Prefecture Yamen, Public Court.

In the midst of the mighty voice, Zhao Pei walked up to the court, sat in the middle of the trial seat, and gestured to Su Shaoqing who was sitting in the hall before sitting down. Su Shaoqing was the plaintiff, but the official was crushed to death, so after beating the drum and going to the court, Zhao Pei directly ordered someone to show Su Shaoqing a seat. Later, Zhao Pei saw the mark left by Shadow Death on the table in the public court, and asked Su Shaoqing to wait for a while before she could go back to the inner hall to meet Shadow Death under the pretext of letting Lu Zhutou go to lead the criminal.

"My lord, the culprit has been brought back, please send it down." Lu Zhutou and others escorted Li Yao to stand on the side of the court.

"Zhao Pei, I'm the daughter of the prime minister, how dare you escort me back with shackles?" Li Yao roared. Just went all the way from the Prime Minister's Mansion to Gyeonggi Mansion, which was the most humiliating part of her Li Yao's life.

"Su Shaoqing, look at this... Zhao Pei's eyes rolled and handed over this touching matter to Su Shaoqing.

"Lord Zhao, how does the Gyeonggi Yamen try the case, do you still need to ask me, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple? But the official heard that the rules of the Gyeonggi Prefecture Yamen were to go to court as a defendant, and first receive a killing stick and then ask the reason. How? Lord Zhao has changed the rules? Su Shaoqing, who was sitting in the hall, looked at Li Yao, who was chained and shackled in front of him, viciously, and then looked at his son who was already cold lying at his feet. His son is the only seedling of the Su family, and he was wronged when he married into the Li family as a side husband, but now he was brutally killed by the Li family, and the Li family is really too deceitful.

"Yes, yes, Su Shaoqing is right! Come on, kill the mighty stick and wait! Zhao Pei reasonably, with Su Shaoqing's words, rewarded Li Yao with a killing stick.

"Bold, Lord Zhao is so powerful, how dare he treat the little girl like this?" After the killing stick was beaten, Li Yao was drenched in blood from the waist down and was dragged back to the court. At this moment, Li Feng, who was dressed in the official uniform of the red prime minister, broke into the public hall and couldn't help but roar when he saw Li Yao's appearance.

"See Prime Minister Li Cheng. This is the rule of Gyeonggi Prefecture, and it is approved by Su Shaoqing, and the lower officials are helpless. Zhao Pei hurriedly got up and walked down to salute Li Feng.

"Su Shaoqing, I deeply regret Lang's death. However, Ling Lang has already married into the Li family, and this matter is just a family matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, why do you want to go to court to make everyone's face look bad? Li Feng opened his mouth, and directly downplayed the murder case as a family matter like a conflict between the two of them.

"Li Xiang, our Su family is the only seedling, and now he is dead and his body is on display, and if the official doesn't come out to seek justice for my son, it will be in vain to be a mother. Hum! Li Xiang's attitude angered Su Shaoqing, and he directly took the case.

"Su Shaoqing, the little girl has been beaten like this, and she can be regarded as punished. According to the appearance, it is better to stop this matter, go back later, how about the prime minister let the little girl bury Lang Haosheng in the name of her husband? "Li Xiang still has the attitude of turning big things into small things.

"Li Xiang, this is not your Prime Minister's Mansion, and it is not the time for you to have the final say. Lord Zhao, if you don't try the case, what are you waiting for? Su Shaoqing pointed the finger at Zhao Pei, who was standing aside.

"In that case, Lord Zhao, you have to be good, okay, trial, just listen to it." Seeing that Su Shaoqing was so tough, Li Xiang stepped forward and patted Zhao Pei's shoulder, and carefully examined the three words that were called a gritted tooth and pinched Zhao Pei's shoulder.

"Come on, give the prime minister a seat!" Zhao Pei rubbed his aching shoulders and walked back to the presiding judge, thinking secretly, you are Li Xiang, you are still so arrogant in my Zhao Pei's land, it seems that I have forgotten my Zhao Pei's notoriety. It's okay, it will remind you.

"Can the person who committed the crime in the hall recognize the deceased?" There was a startling sound, and Zhao Pei began to ask.

"Miss Ben... Recognize... It's my side room. After being beaten to kill the stick, Li Yao replied intermittently.

"Then why did you kill the dead? Could it be that the deceased red apricot came out of the wall to make you angry? Or is it because you are tyrannical and reckless? Zhao Pei asked, and gave two conditions, if Li Yao was not stupid, he would naturally understand what he meant, after all, according to the law of Nanchuan, Hongxing, who was not in the main room, was executed by the main family when he went out of the wall, and the main family was not guilty.

"Miss Ben didn't... Didn't kill. He "It seems that Li Yao is not smart.

"Come, present the evidence. Can you recognize the perpetrator? Zhao Pei patted the shocking wood, and the master on the side presented a bloodstained long sword, which was Li Yao's sword.

"Recognize ... Be.. My saber. "This sword was given by the empress at Li Yao's palace banquet many years ago, Li Yao can't deny it, and he can't deny it.

"Since you have admitted that it was your sword, then, the dead were not killed by you, who killed them? Honestly, why kill the dead? "There was another startling sound.

"Lord Zhao, this is inappropriate. This sword is indeed the little girl's thing, but it can only show that this sword killed the deceased, how can it be concluded that the little girl killed the deceased with this sword? Perhaps, someone else stole this sword and blamed the little girl? Li Xiang said leisurely on the side, worthy of being the minister of a country, and a sharp mouth just cleared Li Yao from it.

"Li Xiang, this sword is a gift from the emperor, who has the courage to steal it? In order to protect the murderer, Lee Xiangbei threw out a person who was unwarranted. Su Shaoqing on the side retorted.

"Su Shaoqing, you didn't see it with your own eyes, how do you know that someone didn't deliberately frame the little girl?" Li Xiang patted the armrest of the seat and said angrily.

"Two adults, don't be impatient. According to the official, Su Shaoqing's pain of losing his son can also be understood by the official, what Li Xiang said is not impossible, why don't you temporarily detain Miss Li first, and then open the court after the investigation is clear? Li Xiang and Su Shaoqing glared at each other angrily, and the two were on the verge of breaking out. Zhao Pei is a good person and put forward a pertinent opinion.

"That is the case, according to what Lord Zhao said. Hmph, Li Feng, this official is not finished with you! Su Shaoqing shook his sleeves and sat back in his seat.

"Ben Xiang believes that Lord Zhao will not disappoint Ben Xiang, right?" Lee Sang-ya also turned around and sat down.

"Come on, take Miss Li back to take her into custody. Retire! ”

Zhao Pei was about to take a picture of the shocking wood, but the head catcher who escorted Li Yao in front of the hall let out an exclamation, and came back with a bloody face: "My lord, it's not good, Miss Li was killed, and the murderer committed suicide after killing someone. ”

"What? Who did it? ”

"Back to my lord, yes. . It is Su Shaoqing's husband, Su Yu's family. ”
