After interrogating Xu Ani, Yang Lihua ordered someone to take her down, and temporarily imprisoned her in Hongsheng Palace, waiting for her to be released.

Yang Awu saw that Yang Guang had something to find the eldest sister when he came to Hongsheng Palace, so he also got up and said goodbye to Yang Lihua, but before leaving, he pleaded with Yang Guang on behalf of Xu Ani: "I also hope that the second brother can leave a way for Xu Ani to live in the face of the younger sister." ”

Yang Guang knew that she had just heard that Xu Ani did not dare to steal her clothes, so she felt compassion, and because she remembered that although Xu Ani had made a mistake in this incident, the crime was not to death, so she and Yang Lihua agreed to Yang Awu's request and agreed to let Xu Ani live.

"Fifth sister, Xu Ani can't stay in the palace anymore. In my opinion, it's better to wait for this matter to settle down, find out if she is wrong, and send her to the Yeting Palace. Yang Lihua dropped Xu Ani so lightly, which surprised Yang Guang.

Yang Lihua saw that he seemed dissatisfied with sending Xu Ani to the Yeting Palace, so she explained to him after Yang Awu left: "After Ah Wu had an accident at her husband's house, I always saw her depressed and unhappy, and seemed to be reluctant to give up on the Wang family. ”

"The eldest sister is kind-hearted, and it is not easy to think of these things for the fifth sister. But I'm worried that once Xu Ani chews her tongue outside, I'm afraid that she will hurt Zhu'er's reputation, I wonder if the eldest sister has considered it? Yang Guang kindly reminded Yang Lihua.

"When this matter spreads, it is most detrimental to Zhu'er. I also thought of this point, but since the matter has happened, no matter how Xu Ani is handled, it is difficult to ensure that Zhu'er's reputation is not damaged. So, Ah Zong, you don't have to go to your father and queen mother to explain the truth of this matter for the time being, I will take the opportunity to explain everything to my parents, and ask my father and queen mother not to investigate the source of the profane clothes, and keep it a secret for Zhu'er as much as possible. As for Xu Ani, I don't think she has the courage to go out and talk nonsense, you don't have to worry about her. Yang Lihua sighed softly and replied.

"I have a way to avoid damaging the name of the pearl. Eldest sister, Zhu'er has also reached the age when she should get married, why don't you take this opportunity to choose a good family for her to marry far away from Chang'an, and ask her to get out of the land of right and wrong as soon as possible, wouldn't it be better? Yang Guangnian and Zhu'er had lived in their own mansion with Yang Lihua for a few days, and if they talked about friendship, they were not much different from Xiao Xiao, Cersei and others, and took the initiative to suggest to Yang Lihua that Zhu'er should marry Zhu'er out of Chang'an, so as to avoid the trouble that this matter might bring her.

"Let's not talk about Zhu'er, aren't you ordered to preside over a thorough investigation of this case in the palace, why did you have time to come to me?" Yang Lihua was reluctant to let Zhu'er leave her side for a while, waved her hand, and asked Yang Guangdao.

Only then did Yang Guang take Guo Yan to Changqiu Prison to visit the injured, and told Yang Lihua in detail about the situation before and after the investigation of the crime scene outside the Linde Palace, and said: "Eldest sister, I want to hear your judgment on this matter, and then decide on the next step." ”

Yang Lihua listened to Yang Guang's story, and said in a deep voice: "Ah Zong, I was thinking, the evil ghost first appeared outside the Linshu Palace, scared a palace maid to death on the spot, and then sneaked into the Hongsheng Palace, coerced Xu Ani to steal Ah Wu's clothes, and linked to the message that the injured eunuch you just said wanted to pass on to you before he died, these three things all have a common point, and they all hint explicitly or implicitly, that it was those old ministers who plotted rebellion in the previous dynasty who incarnated into evil ghosts to sneak into the palace to take revenge, yes or no?" ”

After Yang Lihua's reminder, Yang Guang suddenly woke up: the Linshu Hall is where his father ordered his ministers to shoot Liu Yi and other three family property, Xu Ani was originally the maid of the Wang Yi family of the Duke of Yingguo, and what the evil ghost wanted to coerce her to steal was the clothes of Princess Lanling, the fifth sister who had married into the Wang family as a daughter-in-law, and all of them were related to the old ministers of the previous dynasty who plotted to rebel.

"However, the more this is the case, in my opinion, the less likely it is that the person who is pretending to be a demon and making trouble in the palace is the former subordinates of these old ministers, and it is very likely that there are other people." Yang Lihua turned her words around and said firmly.

"When my father confessed to me in Zhengyang Palace this morning, he also said that he suspected that the haunting in the palace was related to Nan Chen Xizuo, and did not mention the old ministers who rebelled in the previous dynasty. It's just that I just listened to the words of the eldest sister, and now that I think about it, this evil ghost is indeed suspected of choosing people and places to start, and the places and characters selected are all related to those old ministers who plotted rebellion in the previous dynasty, and the reason why he did this is not to deliberately divert our attention and want to direct our attention to those former ministers of the former dynasty? ”

"The father must have a good reason for this judgment. Ah Zong, I think back now, that is, as you suspected, the person who was on an errand in the Linde Hall also had something to do with Liu Yi before the opening of the Sui Dynasty, and it seems that he was introduced to the palace by Liu Yi at that time. In this way, the whole incident is even more obvious: in order to cover up his true purpose, this evil ghost specially sought out venues and people who were connected with the former dynasty's rebellion against the old ministers, and tried to index the line of investigation to the grievances between the former ministers and the imperial court. Yang Lihua looked at Yang Guang with burning eyes and said.

Su Yier was actually a eunuch introduced to the palace by Liu Yi! Yang Guang heard this news for the first time, thinking that the eldest sister was the queen and queen mother of the former dynasty, he was convinced of the news that the eldest sister told him, so his suspicion of Su Yier was a little deeper.

"What is difficult to know for sure at present is whether Su Yi'er is similar to Xu Ani, who did something wrong under the coercion of others, or is she already in the same group as that evil ghost, and the two colluded to cause chaos in the Forbidden Palace?" Yang Guang was taken aback, and couldn't help but ask himself.

"Ah Zong, just based on the nod hint of the injured eunuch, do you suspect Su Yi'er? He is not like Xu Ani, he is a eunuch who is highly regarded by his father, if you don't have real evidence, you'd better not touch him easily. Yang Lihua heard Yang Guang openly pick out Su Yi'er's suspicions, and reminded him with a worried face.

"Not only did the wounded eunuch nod his head to me before he died, but it was also my subsequent observation of Su Yi'er that once again confirmed my previous suspicions, and finally targeted my suspicions on him. Eldest sister, please think about it, according to the situation at the scene of the crime, it is not difficult to make an inference that the trouble and injury in the Linde Hall last night was definitely not done by one person, but when Su Yi'er answered my very simple question, she was scrupled and ambiguous, and she was unwilling to easily say that the murderer was not a person, which was the first point I doubted about him. Later, when we were about to break up, he first couldn't hold back his concern and worry about the injured eunuch, and took the initiative to ask me about the injury, and then he was very humble to hide his inner concern and worry about the injured person, isn't it ridiculous? Yang Guangyi explained to the eldest sister one by one.
