"You go back to Ruoyu Tower secretly, don't let anyone know, see who is acting more suspiciously, I will go to the palace first to persuade my father to delay time."

At this time, the second prince showed a super ability to deal with things, and he had already thought of a way in just a few breaths.

And here Su Zhiyu is still helping Su Liangchen deal with political affairs, and he still doesn't know anything about what happened.

After listening to the arrangement of the second prince, Su Mingyue also felt that it made sense, if she went back openly, the person who framed Du Ruonan would definitely put away her fox tail.

If she goes back secretly, the people who framed them will definitely have some moves, so that she can investigate the people in Ruoyulou as soon as possible.

The Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty, the second prince asks to see you."

Gonggong Li on the side said to the frowning emperor.

After thinking about it, the second prince still came to the emperor first, and didn't go to Su Zhiyu, after all, he didn't know what the emperor thought, if the emperor was ready to take Du Ruonan's life immediately, it would be useless for them to investigate again.

So the first thing is to convince the emperor to give them some time.

And sooner or later, this matter will reach Su Zhiyu's ears, and he is not in a hurry at this time.

"This kid must be here for Du Ruonan, let him in."

The emperor said lightly, so that people couldn't see his joy and anger.

"You're here for Du Ruonan, this girl."

Before the second prince came in, the emperor asked first. The second prince nodded honestly, there was no need for him to hide his purpose at this time.

"Please also ask my father to calm his anger, there must be something else hidden in this matter, Ruonan will definitely not have a rebellious heart, otherwise he would not have raised military salaries at the beginning, and please ask my father to find out."

The second prince clenched his fists and said to the emperor.

"I give you three days, you can use all your resources, you can ask me for help when necessary, if you can find out that Du Ruonan was wronged, then I will naturally let her go, if you don't find out anything after three days, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

The emperor had no intention of negotiating, and directly ordered the second prince.

The second prince didn't expect things to go so smoothly, he originally thought that he would have to go through another round of pleading, but now that he can get this result, he is already very satisfied.

And he could also hear from the emperor's words that the emperor was still towards Du Ruonan, otherwise he would not have given himself such a big privilege.

In this way, the second prince will be relieved.

The Prince's Mansion.

The second prince returned to the house directly after leaving the palace, this matter must have been premeditated, so he needed to carefully study the origin of the matter.

At this time, Su Zhiyu was waiting in the second prince's mansion, and it could be seen from his expression that he was very anxious.

"Don't worry, this time my father didn't mean to blame Ruonan, but gave us the opportunity to investigate this matter, but it was only three days."

The second prince naturally understood what Su Zhiyu meant, he was worried that the emperor would blame Du Ruonan, and he didn't leave any room for Du Ruonan.

Now that he heard that the emperor's balance was slightly in favor of them, he was also relieved, but he was still very nervous, as long as Du Ruonan was still in the prison, his heart could not be calmed.

"I've roughly heard what happened, I think this Shangguan Liuli is very suspicious, what do you think?"

Su Zhiyu is not a vegetarian either, during the period of time when the second prince entered the palace to persuade the emperor, he not only knew what happened in the palace, but also had some ideas.

"Indeed, if she hadn't been bent on investigating Ruonan's cloth workshop, there would be no current situation, it seems that we have to underestimate this woman."

The second prince agreed with Su Zhiyu's words very much.

The two of them were ready to start the investigation from this clue, and with an idea, the two quickly launched an action, and one began to investigate what Shangguan Liuli had done and who he had met these days.

One began to follow Shangguan Liuli to see who she had come into contact with.

Jingyue Palace.

"Are you saying that the emperor hasn't said that he will punish Du Ruonan yet?"

Concubine Jing asked incredulously.

Such a big crime, how can the emperor still tolerate it? Concubine Jing's heart was suddenly unbalanced, she knew that if this matter was changed to her today, the emperor would definitely not be so merciful to her.

"She sent the news, the second prince came to intercede, and the emperor gave him three days to investigate this matter, if he could find out that there was something else hidden, he would naturally let Du Ruonan go, otherwise he would not be merciful."

Mei'er told Concubine Jing about the news from the emperor's side.

"It's Zhao Ying again, it's a good thing to spoil me."

When Concubine Jing heard that it was the second prince who came to intercede, she was already dissatisfied with him, but now she hates him even more, and she wishes she could find a reason for the emperor to kill him immediately.

It would be better to kill his mother as well, so that he will not have so much trouble.

"Niangniang, I don't think the emperor may be facing her, otherwise I wouldn't say that if I don't find it three days later, I will be severely punished."

Mei'er saw that Concubine Jing was in a bad mood, and said flatteringly on the side.

"You know what? The emperor promised Zhao Ying to give him three days, which already shows that the emperor feels that there is something else hidden in the matter, otherwise how could the emperor's temper still keep Du Ruonan. ”

Concubine Jing shouted angrily. 89 Books

was so angry with Concubine Jing, Mei'er also obediently shut up. I also scolded myself in my heart for being okay and foolish.

"Mother, where are we going?"

After Concubine Jing stayed in Jingyue Palace for an hour, she came out in a hurry, and Mei'er, who was following Concubine Jing, asked puzzledly.

However, Concubine Jing didn't pay any attention to her at all, and just walked forward.

Mei'er didn't dare to ask more when she saw this, otherwise she would be scolded again.

Prison.

"Concubine Jing."

The guards guarding the prison saw Concubine Jing coming, and knelt down to greet her. Concubine Jing waved her hand casually and motioned for a few people to stand up.

"What about the female prisoner who was captured today?"

Concubine Jing asked a few people.

One of the guards hurriedly took Concubine Jing in, but they didn't expect that this woman would be able to recruit Concubine Jing today.

Could it be that she has anything to do with Concubine Jing? Be careful.

After entering the prison, Concubine Jing followed the guards for a while, and saw Du Ruonan, who was sitting cross-legged at this time, looking a few times calm.

"Du Ruonan, I didn't expect you to be so ambitious, but you can still be so calm now, is it possible that you still think that the emperor will let you out?"

Concubine Jing said with a smile, at this time, a guard specially moved a chair for Concubine Jing.

"I'm sitting upright, what is there to worry about, but Concubine Jing is here, I'm a lot relieved, presumably the emperor hasn't wanted to execute me yet."

Du Ruonan also saw some things from Concubine Jing's behavior.

If the emperor was going to be executed immediately, Concubine Jing would definitely be celebrating at this time, rather than coming to this dirty place to see herself.

"Congratulations on your wrong answer, you have done such a rebellious thing, is it possible to expect the emperor to let you go? That's ridiculous, isn't it? ”

Concubine Jing didn't expect Du Ruonan to be so clever and be able to guess something from her words and deeds, which made her very worried.

But the words did not let go at all.

"Isn't that what you want?"

Du Ruonan didn't think that Concubine Jing came to find her any good things.

"Du Ruonan, if you admit that you did all these things, I can promise you to intercede with the emperor, maybe the emperor will spare you a dog's life, otherwise, if you are tortured, I am afraid that your fine skin and tender flesh will not be able to hold it."

Although Concubine Jing was a little worried at this time, she seemed to be a master in her words, and she also wanted to attack her scheming.

Once Du Ruonan admits that everything was done by her, Concubine Jing will not only not plead with the emperor, but will immediately tell the emperor and put her to death.

"Thank you Concubine Jing for your kindness, but Ruonan is not blessed."

Although Du Ruonan couldn't be sure what Concubine Jing thought in her heart, she still knew the good and the bad.

"Hmph, I don't know how thick the sky is."

didn't get the answer she wanted, Concubine Jing was naturally very unwilling.

"She dared to hide the dragon robe privately, which is a big crime, but now she still doesn't admit it, so you can take proper care of her and let her know the fate of not telling the truth."

Concubine Jing commanded the guards when she left the gate of the prison.

The guards originally thought that this Du Ruonan might have something to do with Concubine Jing, and they were planning to take special care of it, but now listening to Concubine Jing's words, this woman actually offended Concubine Jing.

Now he will also give her "special care".

"Also, let's take her food, she won't live for a few days anyway, so there's no need to waste it."

Before leaving, Concubine Jing said to a few people again, and several of them nodded again and again.

"It's really a poor woman, she actually offended Concubine Jing, it's not a good time."

After Concubine Jing left, one of the guards sympathized.

"You can say this in front of us, but don't dare to let Concubine Jing hear it, otherwise I think your fate will be worse than this woman."

The other guard muttered quietly.

Then several people walked into Du Ruonan's cell with whips, and they naturally didn't dare not do what Concubine Jing explained.

The day passed quickly, and although the two found some information, these did not prove that Du Ruonan was innocent.

And Su Mingyue sneaked back to Ruoyu Tower, observing everything in secret, and also found a few suspicious people, but it also took time to observe.

Concubine Jing was also a little anxious at this time, so she asked the jail's messenger to extort a confession from Du Ruonan's words and deeds, as long as she could get Du Ruonan's signature, she could rest assured.

But to her surprise, Du Ruonan was still unwavering after being tortured and did not compromise with her at all, which gave her a headache.

It's a race, all in a race against time.
