Mao Lingfeng smiled slightly, and waved his wide sleeves, "That's it, those who don't know are not guilty, today this princess just heard that this woman's charges do not match, and there are other grievances, so the princess will take her back to the mansion, if there is anything, call the officials of the criminal department to come into the palace to find me." After speaking, he said to Zhiqi: "Remove the torture instrument and take the person away." ”

Zhiqi pointed at Li Chengyong and said, "You go and carry the person on your back, and we will go back." ”

Li Chengyong was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "Why me?" ”

Zhiqi glanced at him, "It's not you, is it me, or a young lady, or a princess?" ”

Li Chengyong glanced at them, and among the four, he was the only one who was the most suitable, obediently stepping forward with a bloodstained woman on his back and following behind.

The supervising official was frightened into a cold sweat, and after seeing the four of them walking away, he got up from the ground, wiped the sweat on his head, and secretly said that he was so powerful. With a wave of his hand, he ordered to return to the criminal department to resume his life.

Mao Lingfeng and his entourage hurriedly returned to the princess's mansion and summoned the medical girl to clean Yan Rui's wounds, change clothes and bathe.

After Yan Rui bathed and changed clothes, she walked out of the room. I just saw Mao Lingfeng and Zhao Siman coming slowly. So he knelt on the ground and said to Mao Lingfeng: "Little girl, thank you to the two princesses for saving their lives." ”

Zhao Siman pointed at Mao Lingfeng and said, "It's my sister who saved you, thank her if you want to thank her!" ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled, helped her up and said, "You have a strong personality and don't want to involve innocents, you shouldn't have suffered such a serious crime, let alone beheading." Let me bump into it today, how can I stand by and let a strong woman die innocently. Sit down and tell me why you are doing so. ”

After Yan Rui thanked him, he sat down and sighed: "The daughter of the warehouse manager of my own household department, because her father offended her boss, she was defiled and stolen by guard, and her father was humiliated and died in front of the warehouse door. When my mother heard about it, she committed suicide, leaving me alone to have my family property confiscated and sold into an official prostitute. Fortunately, Ning Xianglou's mother saw that my piano skills were excellent, and she was not forced to sell herself.

On that day, the old lady Zhengqing of Taichang Temple celebrated her birthday, so she invited me and the red sleeves to go to the piano and dance. But I don't want the banquet to be gone. Red Sleeves and I wanted to get up and go back to Ningxiang Building, but we never thought that the old thing was so brazen that he forced us to stay overnight. I would rather die than die, and stabbed him with scissors in the middle of the pull. He was so angry that he ordered me to be thrown into prison and forced me to identify Yu Taichang Temple as the vice minister of the temple, but I rejected him, and he didn't want to lose face. and defile me and steal the goods of the house. He knocked me unconscious with a heavy punishment, forced my fingerprints, and sentenced me to beheading. I thought that it would be over but I was dead, but I didn't expect that the sky had eyes, and I was rescued by the eldest princess and was able to leave a remnant life. Yan Rui's voice choked up after speaking, and her eyes were blurred with tears.

Zhao Siman listened and kept wiping his tears. After listening to the chess, he felt that he was suffering from the same illness as himself, and when he remembered his past, he couldn't help but cry like a spring, crying bitterly.

Mao Lingfeng glanced at them and sighed, the world only says that it is good to be an official, and a few are good enough to be old. said to Yan Rui: "Since I know about this, I can't ignore it, so be it." Rest well tonight, and wait until tomorrow morning I will take you to the temple to face the saint, so that your grievances can be heard directly to heaven. Let the shameless man have no shame to gain a foothold in the court. After speaking, he got up and instructed the palace maid to wait.

returned to the room, changed into men's clothes, took a folding fan, and took Zhiqi and Li Chengyong to Ningxianglou, and as soon as they arrived at the door, they were dragged into Ningxianglou by their mothers. Suddenly, a few girls stepped forward and stretched out their hands to pull, Mao Lingfeng's face sank, and he shouted: "Get out, don't be angry and self-threatening, and those girls who are scared will stay away."

The old mother took her into the private room, Mao Lingfeng made a look, Zhiqi dropped two ingots of silver, and said: "My son-in-law came from afar, and I heard that Miss Yan Rui of Ningxianglou has excellent piano skills, but I ask for a song to feast my ears." ”

The old mother looked at the two big silver ingots, her eyes lit up, and when she heard Zhiqi finish speaking, her face changed, and her outstretched hand retracted. Shaking his head, he said: "Childe came from afar, I guess I don't know that Yan Rui has had an accident, and I want to listen to her hand stroke, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future." ”

Mao Lingfeng pretended not to know, and asked excitedly: "Why is this, is Yan Rui already good?" ”

"Congliang?" The old mother smiled bitterly, "It's good to be good, I'm afraid that my body and fingers will be useless." ”

"Why is that?" Mao Lingfeng pushed the silver in front of her, "You make it clear, this silver belongs to you." ”

"Really, then you're welcome." The old mother stuffed the silver into her arms, "Since the son is interested in listening, then I'll tell you about Yan Rui!" After speaking, he sat in front of Mao Lingfeng, foaming at the mouth, and explained Yan Rui's life experience and how he was finally sentenced to beheading, and explained in detail.

After listening to Mao Lingfeng, there was basically no major difference from what Yan Rui said, and some things were even more detailed. Mao Lingfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Call me the red-sleeved girl and Yan Rui's personal maidservant, and after speaking, take out a silver ticket and put it on Zhuozi."

The old mother's eyes lit up, and she put the silver ticket in her arms and said, "Son, wait a while, I'll go and call." After speaking, his feet flew like flying, and after a while, he led two women in and said to Mao Lingfeng: "Childe, this is Red Sleeves, this is Yan Rui's maidservant Xiaoyue, Childe can ask whatever he wants!" ”

Mao Lingfeng swept the two in front of him, "The two of you were with Yan Rui on the day of Yan Rui's accident. ”

Red Sleeves and Xiao Yue looked at Mao Lingfeng and said tremblingly: "Childe, on the day of Yan Rui's accident, we went to sing together, and after the banquet. Yan Rui was going to come back in a carriage with us, but he didn't want to be stopped, saying that he was an adult who invited Yan Rui to the study, Yan Rui refused, but he didn't expect them to drive me out with Xiaoyue and forcibly take Yan Rui away, we waited outside the gate of the house for more than an hour, and we heard that Yan Rui stole the property in the house and was taken to the criminal department for questioning. ”

Xiao Yue nodded desperately and said, "My young lady has never been strong and strong, and she is not a greedy person for money, so how could she steal the property in the house alone." It is clear that there is another hidden secret. ”

After hearing this, Mao Lingfeng knew what to expect, so he got up and left. Xiao Yue knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed to Mao Lingfeng again and again, and said: "My young lady was wronged, slave and maid are brave, please save the young lady's life." ”

Mao Lingfeng stared at her and said, "Since you remember Miss so much, the master and servant are affectionate, then you can go with me!" ”

Xiao Yue gritted her teeth, "Okay, the slave will go with the girl." After speaking, he followed Mao Lingfeng back to the princess's mansion. Mao Lingfeng ordered the palace maid to lead her to Yan Rui's room.

Yan Rui was lying on the bed, just about to blow out the lamp to rest, when suddenly the door opened, and Xiao Yue looked at her as thin, haggard, and covered with gauze. couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, and cried: "Miss......." Yan Rui was startled, turned around and exclaimed in surprise: "Xiaoyue, how did you get here." ”

"Miss, you have suffered, how can they treat Miss like this! The young lady was wronged. Xiaoyue burst into tears and hugged Yan Rui.

Yan Rui was in pain and hissed. Xiao Yue hurriedly let go of her hand and said embarrassedly: "Miss, it was the slave who hurt you, and the slave helped you to bed to rest." After speaking, he carefully helped Yan Rui to lie down, and went to the soft couch to rest.

Mao Lingfeng didn't expect that tomorrow morning, his actions would set off a bloody storm and plunge himself into a dispute over imperial power.

The next morning, Zhao Lingyu finished handling the affairs of the court, and was just about to get up and retreat from the court, when he heard the eunuch hurriedly walk in and say: "Qi Sheng, the eldest princess asks to see you outside the palace." ”

Zhao Lingyu was stunned for a moment, "Hurry up." ”

Mao Lingfeng slowly walked up to the palace, knelt in front of the palace, his lips opened lightly, and his voice was crisp, "My niece has seen the imperial uncle, long live, long live, long live!" ”

Zhao Lingyu waved his sleeves and said: "No courtesy, flat body!" The eldest princess doesn't rest in the palace, and she goes to court in the morning, what's the matter. ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled, "Yesterday, my niece and Man'er went out to play, but they encountered a big injustice, and my niece couldn't bear to see an innocent woman die, so she rescued her from the execution ground." Please forgive the emperor. ”

Zhao Lingyu said with a smile: "I heard from the official of the Criminal Department this morning that you broke into the court and forcibly took the female prisoner away. I didn't believe it, but now that I hear you, is there something going on? ”

Mao Lingfeng saluted again and said: "But there is something, but there is a great grievance in it. Taichang Temple Zhengqing borrowed the name of the church, and summoned Yan Rui, the top geisha of Ningxianglou, to the mansion to perform, but he was doing shameless things, that Yan Rui was fierce by nature, and would rather die than obey, and accidentally injured Lord Zhengqing in the tearing, Zhengqing will be put into prison, tortured to induce confession, and forced Yan Rui to have an affair with the vice secretary of Dachang Temple. Yan Rui would rather die, so he knocked her unconscious, pressed her fingerprints, and sentenced her to behead for theft. ”

As soon as Mao Lingfeng's words fell, there was an uproar in the court, and all the civil and military officers looked sideways and stared at Zhengqing of Taichang Temple.

Taichang Temple Zhengqing's face was red and white, and he jumped out and said: "The eldest princess robbed people in the court, and she violated the law, but now she listens to the words of the geisha, and openly pours sewage on the old man in the court. What a gift. ”

Mao Lingfeng smiled coldly, "Whether there is something or not, the adults themselves know it, so why should they be cunning." After speaking, he turned to Zhao Lingyu and said: "Uncle Huang, my niece ordered someone to go to Ningxianglou last night to check the situation, and the geisha Red Sleeves and Yan Rui's personal maid Xiaoyue can testify, and what Yan Rui said is true." He also asked the imperial uncle to bring Taichang Temple Zhengqing to justice, and gave Yan Rui an innocence. With Zhang Xian Shengming, with the Ming State Discipline Law. ”

The Privy Council envoy said: "For the sake of a mere cheap prostitute, it is necessary to investigate and deal with the senior members of the hall, which will put the face of the court to where to go." ”

Mao Lingfeng sneered: "The prince violates the law, and he is still guilty of the same crime as the people, and Taichang Zhengqing should set an example and respect the etiquette and law, instead of oppressing people with power. If every official is like this, what is the use of the ceremonial law? ”

Taichang Temple Zhengqing said angrily: "The eldest princess keeps saying that I have done shameful things, but I don't know that the cheap prostitute can't seduce me and slander me. ”

Mao Lingfeng shook his head and said: "Since this is the case, then please ask the emperor to summon Yan Rui to the palace to confront him. ”

Zhao Lingyu waved his hand, "Xuan Yanrui entered the hall and entered the hall." As the shouts of the inner eunuchs sounded, the civil and military officials saw a woman wearing a light blue dress, with a haggard face, a thin figure, slender jade hands, and weak willows supporting the wind, but it was still difficult to hide her beautiful and gorgeous face, and slowly moved up to the hall from the outside.
