Lin Yi was dressed in a green cloth cotton robe, and there were no other accessories on his body, standing tall and jade, standing under the hall.

Even so, it still feels imposing.

When the people in the hall saw Lin Yi, they all stood up and wanted to kneel down and kowtow, but Lin Yi waved them and pointed to the clothes on their bodies.

It means that the micro-service goes out on patrol, and there is no need to be polite.

Jiang Xuan knew that Lin Yi was coming from the moment he saw Chang Yuan, but he didn't expect him to appear in such a way.

Liu Qingshan, who was watching outside, asked all the three classes of officials to disperse.

Emperor Taishang's private visit to Weifu, safety is the first priority, in case there is something hidden in the crowd, and something happens, even if he has ten heads, it is not enough to compensate.

It's just that the two cases tried are rare, how can the onlookers outside be willing to disperse?

Liu Qingshan sent additional officials to drive the onlookers out of Sanzhang.

Old Uncle Xu did a lot of calculations, but he didn't expect that the Emperor Taishang would appear in person, just to testify to Jiang Xuan.

He knew that the Emperor Taishang had taken a fancy to Jiang Xuan, otherwise he would not have made a big fanfare, put down his body and personally sent the dowry to Jiang's house.

This is clearly not in harmony with the rules of marriage, but the rules of the world are all set by the superiors, so who can say anything?

Just rushing to the emperor to go out in person can explain everything.

Old Uncle Xu glanced at Jiang Xuan under the curtain, such a thing, the Emperor Taishang actually came in person, which shows how much he values this future Queen Mother, this girl is a good means.

He felt that his methods of dealing with this girl should have changed, and what he had thought of before was too simple, and he looked down on her.

Lin Yi waved his hand and instructed Liu Qingshan, "I'm just here to be a witness, and you can try it how you want." ”

beckoned again, and asked people to add a chair on top of Jiang Xuan, so that the two of them sat together on chairs.

The people in the hall quietly watched his movements, where did they dare to refute? In the eyes of the Emperor, there is probably only Jiang Xuan alone.

Liu Qingshan was still calm in the end, sat down in front of the case, and restarted the trial.

Although Lin Yi's appearance caught everyone off guard, after a while, they all calmed down.

Liu Qingshan asked, "Old Shangshu, you questioned Miss Jiang, and you also laid out the facts and motives. ”

"But in the same way, Miss Jiang also has a testimony to prove that she is not the murderer."

"Therefore, this case still needs to be continued."

Old Uncle Xu's temples jumped suddenly, obviously everything was under control, but now he had a faint feeling of losing control.

He gritted his teeth secretly, took a deep breath, and said, "The minister just wants to ask, the prince broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, I don't know what evidence can prove that the death of Miss Jiang and the little girl has nothing to do with it?" ”

Lin Yi's eyes narrowed, he always felt that Xu Shangshu was a smart person, knew how to advance and retreat, and was sensible.

From the prison of Dali Temple, he felt that he had come forward, and he knelt for two days and two nights, and he should have known that he had retreated.

Why did you ask him such a rash question today?

"Xu Ye." Lin Yi said, "You should know, why did I come, do you think the question you asked me is what you should ask?" ”

Jiang Chong snorted, "Didn't Lao Shangshu ask who could prove that the little girl was not a murderer just now, and now someone can prove it, why does Lao Shangshu still hold on to it?" ”

Old Uncle Xu's back molars were about to be crushed, he lowered his eyes and did not speak, and the atmosphere was a little stalemate for a while.

Jiang Xuan suddenly stood up and looked at Old Uncle Xu with a calm face, "Since Old Uncle must put the word murderer on me, then I have to tell you the truth about Xu's death for the sake of my innocence." ”

She said word by word.

For people like Uncle Xu, there is no meaning in tongue canned lotus, no matter how much you say, it is a waste of saliva, it is better to say what you want directly.

Lin Yi stroked her forehead with her hand, the little girl didn't appreciate it.

He didn't speak again, just watched Jiang Xuan walk to the center of the main hall, saluted Liu Qingshan, and said lightly, "Lord Liu, I want to see Xu's remains." ”

"Impossible!" Old Madam Xu screamed sharply.

The daughter's death was very miserable, her tongue was so long that she couldn't take it back, and if Jiang Xuan wanted to see her, she would have to move her body to the front of the hall, and then wouldn't everyone in the world know what her daughter would look like after she died?

She is already dead, should she be subjected to such humiliation?

Jiang Xuan smiled indifferently, "The old lady doesn't think that I can tell the truth about your daughter's death out of thin air, right?" ”

Old Uncle Xu looked at Jiang Xuan coldly, Jiang Xuan's face was calm and looked at him, and his momentum did not fall behind at all.

"Miss Jiang is a girl's house, what is the use of going to see the remains except for crying?"

Old Uncle Xu said mockingly.

Jiang Xuan shook his head and chuckled, "Didn't the old uncle just say that I was a murderer?" If I dare to kill, what else should I not dare?

Besides, I'm not scared. ”

She turned to stand up to Old Madam Xu and said softly, "Old Madam, although we have always been discordant and the pain of losing our loved ones, I can empathize with it, don't you want to find out the real murderer?"

Face, where is the truth important?

Do you say yes, old lady? ”

Old Madam Xu raised her walnut eyes and looked at Jiang Xuan hazy,

"Old lady, why don't you let her see it, I'll see what kind of flower she can say."

Old Uncle Xu's heart is hesitant at the moment, the aftermath of Xu's corpse is handled very well, and even the best work in Shuntianfu has not seen anything unusual, so what can Jiang Xuan know if she doesn't go out of the door and doesn't step out of the second door?

But she swore so much, as if she would be able to clear her grievances.

Thinking that she grew up in the frontier, maybe Jiang Chong taught her something?

His mung bean eyes were spinning, his fingers were crossed on his abdomen, and his thumbs were constantly crossed in circles.

After half a sound, he said, "Okay, it's just that if the girl sees the little girl's appearance and can't say one, two, three, don't be surprised......

Lin Yi's eyes were deep, Jiang Xuan looked at him, shook his head gently, and signaled that it didn't matter.

Liu Qingshan got the approval of Old Uncle Xu, and motioned for his left and right hands to move Xu's corpse to the hall.

Speaking of which, the Xu family is also pitiful, Uncle Xu is bent on finding out the truth and refuses to collect her corpse.

The Jiang family, as the husband's family, did not express it at all.

Now he can only be covered with a white cloth and lie on a stretcher.

The corpse was brought up, and Jiang Xuan stepped forward calmly and gently lifted the white cloth covering her.

Under the white cloth was a terrible face, and when Mrs. Xu saw it, she cried again, her poor daughter.

The onlookers were surrounded by three zhang away, and they couldn't see Xu's face clearly, but dead people, especially hanged ghosts, were very terrifying.

Unexpectedly, this Jiang girl was not afraid at all.

Jiang Xuan looked at Xu's remains, and suddenly felt some emotion.

Xu definitely couldn't have imagined that as a noble lady, she would lie here in such an embarrassment one day.

If she hadn't insisted on marrying Jiang Chong, would she be okay now, or would she be sitting tall in the backyard of a deep house?

Jiang Xuan retracted his thoughts and looked at Xu's neck seriously, and it was actually very clear what he was doing.

First strangled, then hanged, pretending to hang himself.

In another world, she likes to read some reasoning books, but she just likes it, hoping that all the gods and Buddhas can bless her and come in handy.

She wrapped a handkerchief around her hand and pressed it on Xu's neck, although the body was stiff, but when she pressed it, there was some hollowness in the neck, which was obviously caused by broken bones.

She leaned over to observe for a moment, straightened up, and said to Liu Qingshan with a straight face,

"Xu Shi was indeed hanged after being strangled."

Crowd, "......"

Isn't this girl talking nonsense?

Old Uncle Xu looked at Jiang Xuan coldly, "Girl, is this admitting that the little girl was poisoned by you?" ”

Jiang Xuan frowned, "I just said that the Xu family was strangled to death, what does this have to do with being poisoned by me?" ”

"The Dao Gu of Puji Nunnery has confirmed that you are the last person to see her." Old Uncle Xu said coldly.

Jiang Xuan nodded, "I did see her, this is a fact, but to say that her death has something to do with me, there is no way to talk about it." ”

"It's not like the Dao Elders of Puji Nunnery have been staring at the Xu family for twelve hours, maybe someone will go in and kill her later?

Besides, the most important point is that the survey manual made it clear that Xu died at night, and I, however, went to see her during the day. ”

"Old uncle, you can't say that you're helping me."

Old Uncle Xu couldn't hear that Jiang Xuan was sarcastically biting him like a mad dog, and his face immediately sank.

"Then Miss Jiang is talking about how you can prove your innocence."

Jiang Xuan looked at Uncle Xu with a smile,

"Originally, you have eaten more salt than I have eaten, and I should respect you when you are old, but if you behave incorrectly, I can't make me respect you, but I will blame you."

"You say again and again, over and over how to prove it, how to prove it? So, I want to ask you, how do you prove that I am the killer? ”

She pointed to the Taoist aunt of Puji Nunnery kneeling next to her, "Is it just them?" ”

"Well, even if I bought the work of the government and changed the time of Xu's death, then I want to ask, who first discovered Xu's death?"

Liu Qingshan looked at the little Dao Gu among them.

The little aunt lowered her head and said, "It was the first one found out by Poor Dao, when I went to change the incense candles, I didn't expect to see a shadow floating in the window, and I was so scared at the time."

When I went inside, I found out that someone was dead. ”

Her face was frightened, her tone trembled, and she did seem to be in a state of distress.

"Then who found out that I was the last to see the Xu family?" Jiang Xuan asked again.

The old Taoist girl who swept the floor came out of the ranks,

"It's Poor Dao, when Poor Dao finished cleaning the yard and was about to rest, I saw you and your maid coming out of Mrs. Xu's house."

Jiang Xuan nodded, "Since you said that you saw me come out of her house, and I was the last person to see her, she must have been dead when I left, so did you see a shadow floating in the window like this little road leader?" ”

Old Daogu shook her head, "No, it was daylight, and even if someone died inside, it wouldn't shine a shadow on the window." ”

Jiang Xuan smiled and did not refute her words, but continued to ask, "How many yards do you have to clean alone?" Xu's yard is the last yard to be cleaned? ”

The old Dao Gu was a little flustered, she unnaturally pinned the hair between her sideburns with her hand, and her voice was a little weak, "There...... I...... After cleaning the other places, I went to Mrs. Xu's yard again......"

"Right...... She's a nice person, so everyone loves to go to her yard......"

Jiang Xuan showed a meaningful smile, how are the Xu people? Huh.

According to the mother-in-law she saw yesterday, Xu didn't have Hibiscus paste to eat, but even her own daughter was scared away.

Could it be that these Dao girls have a better relationship with the Xu family than Zhu'er and her?

Seeing her laughing weirdly, the old Dao Gu rushed to ask, "What are you laughing at?" ”

"Since you said you saw me, what color clothes did I wear yesterday? Also, can you recognize the maid I brought? ”

The old Daogu's eyes flickered, and she hesitated, "It's just a hurried glance, where do you remember the poor Dao." ”

"Since you can't be sure, how can you say that this girl was the last to see her?

Don't you eat, drink, or sleep, just because Mrs. Xu is good, do you give her a free janitor? ”

Jiang Xuan teased.

"Papa" applause rang out, and Old Uncle Xu looked at Jiang Xuan gloomily, "Miss Jiang is really smart and sharp-toothed. ”

"Don't dare to bear the old uncle's false praise." Jiang Xuan said shyly.

Old Uncle Xu twitched the corners of his mouth.

It's shameless, who praised her? No wonder she can confuse the Emperor Taishang, who can be so self-inflicted with her.

"With these, you can clear the suspicion of the girl, it's too rash." Old Uncle Xu stared at her.

"Imprudent?" Jiang Xuan said twice, "This girl did go to the Xu family yesterday, but instead of going to her room, she went to Jiang Zhu'er's room. ”

She raised her index finger at Old Uncle Xu and shook it, "Don't say that Jiang Zhu'er is dead, there is no proof of death." ”

"Speaking of which, the old uncle also loves his daughter, why is the old uncle sure that Miss Zhu'er is dead? If I killed their mother and daughter, would I be able to make Jiang Zhu'er lose no one alive and no corpse? ”

Lin Yi sat on the side, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously smiled.

The little girl is always so calm and smart, and she is like a ghost.

He looked at Jiang Xuan with a smile and calmly questioned the Dao aunt, and finally was speechless.

"Since you said that you didn't go to Chan'er's room, and Dao Gu can't prove that you are the last person to see Chan'er, then who is the murderer?"

Old Uncle Xu asked.

Jiang Xuan couldn't help laughing, "The old uncle asked me?" ”

Old Uncle Xu and the people outside were very surprised, what she said was the Tao, don't ask her, who to ask?

"I'm just a suspect who was brought over by Lord Liu for questioning, and now that I've proven my innocence, I should be able to leave, right? As for finding the murderer, what does that have to do with me, a weak woman in the boudoir? ”

After listening to Jiang Xuan's words, Liu Qingshan, the judge above, touched his nose, this Jiang girl is really not to be underestimated.

These are all questions he wanted to ask during the trial, but he didn't expect them to be preempted by her.

He knocked on the shocking wood, "Old uncle, this official will definitely find out about Xu's death." ”

Jiang Chong, who had not spoken, looked at Liu Qingshan and said slowly, "Lord Liu, don't forget the general's complaint. ”

Liu Qingshan coughed, "Come one by one, first find out Xu's death......"

Old Uncle Xu looked sad, straightened his robe, stood up, and walked towards Lin Yi, only to see him pick up his robe and kneel down towards Lin Yi.

"General Zhenbei sued the Xu family for cheating on marriage, and the minister didn't dare to say that there was a little grievance in the minister's house, what he told was true, and the Xu family did cheat on marriage."

As soon as Old Uncle Xu's words fell, everyone was boiling.

"Before the little girl married General Zhenbei, she was indeed not perfect, and she gave birth to a pair of twins half a year after getting married.

And General Zhenbei was indeed coerced by his ministers to agree to marry his little daughter into the mansion......"

Jiang Chong knocked on the table, "It's lifting, not marrying ......"

Old Uncle Xu didn't seem to hear the mockery in his mouth, "The minister's mansion did something wrong, but the minister's family has to cheat on marriage, because what the minister's family wants to keep is the royal flesh and blood!"

The little girl really loves General Zhenbei, and General Zhenbei is also a loyal and good general, and it is indeed safe to marry into the General's Mansion. ”

"It turns out that General Zhenbei is really amazing, let the little girl give birth to the child and raise it."

Liu Qingshan's body was crooked, and he almost jumped up in fright, how could he pull the royal flesh and bones?

"Xu Shangshu, the Emperor Taishang is here, don't just because your daughter is dead, just because your daughter is dead, the royal bloodline is so noble."

"Lord Liu, what this official said is the truth, and there is not a single lie." Old Uncle Xu interrupted Liu Qingshan's words and shouted directly.

The crowd outside 'coaxed' and spread.

Originally, everyone came here today to watch the excitement and wanted to know the truth, but now that Uncle Xu shouted, it was completely broken.

No matter how Liu Qingshan commanded the officials to drive away the onlookers outside, and had to close the gate, Lin Yi always looked at the old man Xu who was kneeling in front of him with a smile on his lips.

Old Uncle Xu continued, "Emperor, the twins of the little girl are the first emperor's! They're your younger siblings, too. ”

Uncle Xu's words were like a shock, which made Liu Qingshan stunned on the spot, and the crowd outside the lobby was like a thunderbolt, which exploded and made a commotion.

Originally, the old uncle said that it was the royal flesh and blood, but he thought it was the absurd debt of the prince, but he didn't expect it to be the emperor's.

That's a pearl in the sea.

How not to be surprised?

What's more, the first emperor is also a good emperor, and the people love him very much, but now someone tells him that this emperor is not as serious as he seems.

They even generate a kind of anger at being deceived.

Liu Qingshan felt that he could no longer live, and in his previous life, he must have dug someone's ancestral grave, and he would be this parent official in this life.

He hated it so much that his teeth itched, and he really didn't see that Old Uncle Xu was an old madman.

Jiang Xuan didn't expect that she was originally talking about being a killer, but suddenly turned to the life experience of Zhu'er's sister and brother, which was so incredible.

She couldn't help but take a step forward, Lin Yi smiled at her, signaling her to be restless.

I only heard him say softly, "Since Aiqing dares to say this matter in public, there must be real evidence, right?" ”

Old Uncle Xu took out a small cloth bag from his arms with trembling hands, and he opened the cloth bag layer by layer, revealing a jade pendant inside.

Suddenly, it was the one that hung on Xu's neck.

He held the jade pendant and respectfully raised it to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi slowly took the jade pendant, this jade pendant was very familiar to him, he had seen it in the hands of his father, Emperor Lin Risheng.

This was given to his father by Emperor Gaozu at that time, and his father was not an emperor at that time, just an ordinary prince.

The jade is not engraved with a dragon, but with a jiao.

He never saw this jade pendant again, one was because Xiao Yi came to power later, and he was no longer close to him.

Second, he thought that his father had lost this jade pendant.

I didn't expect to see this jade pendant again.

Old Uncle Xu said with a cry, "This jade pendant is a token given to her by the first emperor and the little girl after they met. ”

Lin Yi held the jade pendant in his hand and said in a rambling voice, "This is indeed the jade pendant of the father, since you know that the child is the father's, why don't you tell the father?" Since the father dares to give you this jade pendant, he will not refuse to recognize the identity of the child. ”

In the palace, Dark One hurriedly entered the imperial study, making Xiao Yue stunned, how long has it been since he saw Dark One lose his temper like this?

"What's going on?" Xiao Yue had a smile in his voice, and he looked out the window, "Is the sky falling or is the ground sinking?" ”

And the heart to joke with him! Dark Yiqiang smiled, "Your Majesty, with you, the sky will naturally not fall, but outside, the wind is blowing." ”

"What kind of wind is so evil? Makes you change color too? Xiao Yue put down the fold in his hand and leaned back,

"Tell me, what is it that can make my Dark Guard Leader lose his color like this?"

He suddenly thought that Gu Nian was pregnant with a child, and his face changed, "It's not that something happened to Nian Nian, right?" ”

Secretly shook his head, "Didn't Lord Liu enter the palace yesterday and talk about the entanglement between the military department Shangshu and the Zhenbei General's Mansion?" You also said that let him go on trial as usual.

Today, Lord Liu opened a trial, and the Emperor Taishang also went to the lobby of the Shuntian Mansion in order to support the Jiang family's girl.

Who knows, that Xu Shangshu actually took a piece of jade pendant to the Emperor Taishang, saying that it was a pair of children of the dead Xu family who were the children of the first emperor......"

Dark One's face was a little frightened, according to the age of the two children, it was not the younger brother and sister of the emperor, but the younger brother and sister of the emperor in front of him.

How could this not make him panic.

A hint of surprise flashed in Xiao Yue's eyes, and he just said 'oh', then nodded lightly, and was silent for a long time before he said softly, "It seems that the wind is really blowing." ”

In the lobby of Shuntian Mansion, Lin Yi looked at Old Uncle Xu with a smile, got up, bent down to help Old Uncle Xu up, and said with a pleasant face,

"Aiqing, it's really hard for you to keep a secret for so many years, and you have suffered so much for the reputation of your father."

"What do you mean by telling me these things now? Do you want me to replace my father and let the two children recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors? ”

His gentle attitude made Old Uncle Xu can't help but be vigilant, this is the second plan he set after pushing Xu's death to the Jiang family.

He originally wanted to use the mouths of Liu Qingshan and the people outside to force the royal family to recognize the identities of Zhu'er and Ju'er, but he didn't expect the Emperor Taishang to come in with a kick.

But since Jiang Xuan is not easy to deal with, he can only change his target and temporarily divert his attention.

If the Emperor Taishang is not there, Liu Qingshan will definitely report such a big matter first, as long as the court interrogation is stopped, he will be able to make the evidence more solid.

When he came, he had already instructed his grandson Xu Bin to go to Puji Nunnery.

The Emperor Taishang didn't even ask, he recognized it, and asked if he wanted to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, Jiang Xuan's matter had just gotten out of control, would this be out of control again?

Didn't that daughter die in vain?

Old Uncle Xu wiped his tears and shook his head, "Emperor, where do ministers dare to have such whimsical thoughts?" ”

"When the first emperor was alive, the little girl also worked hard to raise two children, and she never thought of recognizing her ancestors and returning to her ancestors."

"After the little girl died, the minister didn't want to go against her will."

"It's just that now the little girl has died tragically, and the granddaughter doesn't know where she died, and the grandson is even more sent by the Jiang family."

"I beg the emperor to see that for the sake of her lifelong forbearance, for the sake of their mothers, the murderer of the little girl must be found and brought to justice......"
