"Miss......"

As soon as Lin Mumu returned to the house, Qiaoqiao and Ning Xiang surrounded her.

"Miss, how can you deceive people, how can you leave the slaves and maids."

"Yes, Miss, you're too bad......"

Lin Mumu listened to their reproachful words, but her heart was warm, she didn't expect that she would come back so soon.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, I'm not back, I'm telling you, I just knew that I would come back again, so I didn't bring you with me, so I didn't bring you with me, so I didn't have to worry about everyone running back and forth." Lin Mumu snorted haha.

"The eldest lady has long guessed that this thing can't be done?" Ning Xiang had a simple face.

Lin Mumu touched her nose. "Yes, I guessed it a long time ago, so don't be sad, I'm so hungry that I eat dry food on the road, and my mouth is tasteless, Qiaoqiao go and cook a table of good dishes for your eldest lady."

They all knew that Lin Mumu's words contained water, but they were all smart not to dig deeper, no matter what, the eldest lady would be good if she came back now!

"Yes, the slave will do it for the eldest lady."

"The eldest lady must be tired from running around for days, the slave maid goes to prepare hot water for the eldest lady, and the eldest lady will take a good bath for a while."

"Sensible."

Ning Xiang and Qiaoqiao happily responded and went to work separately.

Lin Mumu returned to the house, and the smile on her face gradually sank.

"Miss." Ning Yuan followed him into the house.

These days, she has been keeping Ning Yuan paying attention to Zhao Xuanling's news.

"Tell me, what's going on now?"

Ning Yuan said in a deep voice: "The royal king has been imprisoned in the prison of the criminal department since he was arrested, and he has not been interrogated or completely convicted, and many ministers in the court have avenged the royal king, hoping that the emperor can thoroughly investigate the case of collusion between the imperial king and the three princes." ”

"Well, you continue to pay attention to the rumors outside, and come and tell me as soon as there is news."

"Yes, my subordinates understand."

After Ning Yuan retreated, Lin Mumu called Xiao Jia out again.

Xiao Jia saw that Lin Mumu's expressionless face became vivid, they were unwilling when Lin Mumu left them in Xijing, they hoped to follow Lin Mumu all the time to protect her safety, but Lin Mumu gave an order and they couldn't disobey, and they could only squat in Xijing, never thought that Lin Mumu would come back so soon.

"Is there any news from the Imperial Palace?"

"The Imperial Palace, now that it has been seized by the imperial court, the people in the Imperial Palace, have been arrested, and the people of the forbidden army used the people of the Imperial Palace to threaten the prince before arresting the prince."

Lin Mumu slapped his palm on the table. "Treacherous!"

"The subordinates feel that the slander of the royal king is probably premeditated, otherwise it is impossible to prepare all the evidence in such a short time, and the reason why the people of the imperial palace were arrested is also because the forbidden army rushed into the royal palace to search and found a letter with the third prince in the prince's study."

"Are you saying that the emperor already knew that Zhao Hanjun would rebel?" Otherwise, how can it be calculated.

"Quite possibly."

Emperor Showa wanted to have a justifiable reason to take Zhao Xuanling's life.

"Whose hands is this case in now?"

"The criminal department is still the secretary of Yan Artemisia."

Yan Hao, a high-ranking official who has never had a strong presence in the court, can be described as low-key, this Yan Hao does not form a gang or a faction as if he is loyal to the emperor, and he has been in the criminal department for 20 years before he sat on the position of Shangshu, and he has always been known for his fairness and strictness when judging cases.

"Is there anything else that can be convicted of the king now except the letters that the forbidden army found from the palace?"

"No other evidence has been found yet."

"Does that mean that as long as it can be proved that those letters were not written by the prince, can it be proved that the prince is not guilty?"

Xiao Jia nodded and shook his head. "Can it be proved that the prince is innocent, but at least there is no way to convict the prince, but the people in the criminal department have already checked the handwriting on the letter, which is exactly the same as the prince."

This is not surprising to Lin Mumu, since he wants to frame him, he must always do it to make people believe, that is to say, it is difficult to save Zhao Xuanling from this aspect, and Lin Mumu has limited manpower, so many things are very troublesome.

Lin Mumu stood up and paced around the room a little anxiously, now that time was pressing, she had to rescue Zhao Xuanling before he was convicted.

I can't think of any good way to do it.

"If you want to solve things simply and rudely, then you can only let Emperor Showa open his mouth and let the prince go." But how easy is that? Even if this matter was not done by Emperor Showa behind his back, he would not want to let go of this opportunity to kill Zhao Xuanling.

"I'm going to think about this again, so you can step back first."

"Yes."

Zhao Xuanling colluded with Zhao Hanjun to intend to rebel, which still caused quite a stir in Xijing.

Now everyone in Xijing is in danger, for fear that they will be implicated if they are not careful.

Knowing that Lin Mumu had returned to Xijing, Lan Qinzhu came to the door the next day.

"Why did you come back again, when you said goodbye to me, you thought you would never see each other again in this life." Rao is Lan Qinzhu, and goodbye Lin Mumu is also red eyes.

Lin Mumu was also very happy in her heart, and couldn't help but hold her hand. "I thought that there was nothing interesting in Xichu, so I simply came back."

"Just bluff me, you should be so fun with your relatives, you can go and come back if you want." Lan Qinzhu is not stupid, the reason why Lin Mumu came back with the prince of the Western Chu Kingdom must have happened.

If Lin Mumu hadn't taken the initiative to say these things in the past, she wouldn't have asked too much, but now the situation is different. 117

"What the hell is going on, tell me about it."

"It's that the envoy of the Western Chu State was killed, Nangong Zun was not satisfied with the results found out by the imperial king, so he came to fight with me in the middle of the night, and no one was convinced, and then he came back to the emperor to comment."

Lan Qinzhu was surprised when she heard this, if she wanted to say that Lin Mumu dared to beat the prince, she believed it, but how could this eldest prince of the Western Chu Kingdom be so muddy, running away in the middle of the night and beating people in the house?!

"Mu Mu, you did it on purpose, did you do this after hearing about the prince?"

Lin Mumu didn't expect Lan Qinzhu to see it at a glance, but she would never admit it, after all, this matter still involved Nangong Zun.

"I'm just pushing the boat down the river, who would have thought that Nangong Zun would be like this."

"And what are your plans?"

Lin Mumu knew that Lan Qinzhu was talking about Zhao Xuanling.

"There's so much I can do."

Lan Qinzhu frowned and said, "Don't worry too much, my father doesn't believe that the royal king would do such a thing, they won't sit idly by." ”

"Hmm."

Zhao Xuanling's matter Lan Qinzhu is powerless, and she can only comfort Lin Mumu more, hoping that she wants to open up.

After Lan Qinzhu left, Lin Mumu called Stack.

"When I come back this time, what I am most concerned about is Mrs. Xie's body, you go and hand over a post to Mrs. Xie and say that I will go to her for a follow-up."

Stacking was a little confused, but he still went to hand over the post to Xie Fu.

Xie Mansion, in the courtyard of Mrs. Xie.

The maid took the post sent by Stacks to Mrs. Xie.

"Old lady, if the lord wants to see you at this time, will it be for the king's business?" Mama glanced at the post and whispered.

Old Madam Xie frowned slightly, everyone in Xijing knew about the involvement between Lin Mumu and Zhao Xuanling, and it was indeed very likely that Lin Mumu came for Zhao Xuanling.

"Old lady, do you want to see you?"

Mrs. Xie closed the post. "See you and see what she has to say."

"Yes."

Early the next morning, Lin Mumu arrived at Xie's Mansion.

The maid led her directly to Mrs. Xie's yard.

"Old lady, the lord of Zhangshang has arrived."

"Please come in."

"Yes."

Mrs. Xie is the emperor's personal decree, and she is the emperor's biological mother, Lin Mumu, the county lord who has no real power, can't stand up to her in front of her, so it won't make people feel rude if Mrs. Xie doesn't come out to greet her.

"Old Madam Xie, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon."

Old Madam Xie smiled. "County Lord, please take a seat."

Lin Mumu was not polite, and walked directly to the chair and sat down.

"Is there something wrong with the county lord coming this time?" Old Madam Xie didn't go around the bush and asked straight to the point.

Lin Mumu took out the token that Old Madam Xie gave her from her body. "I have come today to return things to their rightful owners."

Old Madam Xie looked at the token, her eyebrows moved, and she didn't go to get it immediately.

"This token was originally promised to be given to the county lord, so the county lord should still take it."

"Old Madam Xie, don't get me wrong, I'm going to exchange this token for a condition."

Old Madam Xie raised her eyes to look at her. "What do you want in exchange?"

"I want to see the king."

Mrs. Xie was stunned for a moment, now Zhao Xuanling is being imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department, although the emperor did not order that no one is allowed to visit, but who will touch the mold at this juncture?

Old Madam Xie's brows furrowed when she was dyed with white frost.

"The royal king is now a repeat offender in the court, and it is not easy to see him."

"It's not easy, but it's not impossible for the Xie family, I know the doubts in Mrs. Xie's heart, I, Lin Mumu, dare to use the head guarantee on the item, I just went to meet the prince, and I will never bring any trouble to the Xie family."

Old Madam Xie was silent, as if she was thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

"I don't believe that the prince is a person who will rebel, let alone collude with the third prince, I think the old lady should know better than me in her heart, if the prince really wants to rebel, there is no need to wait until now, can the old lady bear to watch the Eastern Jin Dynasty generation of fierce generals fall like this?"

Old Madam Xie's hand clenched loosely, loosened and clenched, as if she was struggling, and after a cup of tea, she sighed faintly. "That's it, you also said that you just wanted to meet him, and the old body promised you, but you also have to talk about it, and there must be no mistake in this matter."

"Old lady rest assured."

Old Madam Xie took back the token on the table. "You go back and wait, and when the old body is arranged, someone will inform the county lord."

"Okay, then I won't bother the old lady and take my leave."
