Chapter 167: Prisoner (2)

Shen Ji's rebuttal, but the official of the Criminal Department seemed to have expected it, and immediately said: "This matter has both human and material evidence, and I don't dare to slander the eldest princess casually no matter what." ”

After that, he held a bright yellow holy decree and said: "Your Majesty has seen the evidence in this case, so in accordance with Your Majesty's holy decree, I ask Your Highness to cooperate with the investigation." ”

He Mian'er already knew in her heart, even though the new emperor had already seen it, she still couldn't find any suspicions, and it seemed that the enemy in the dark was prepared.

In her opinion, the new emperor would not harm her no matter what.

That Shen Ji secretly stepped forward, attached it to her ear, and said softly: "Your Highness wants to summon those three thousand private soldiers?" ”

After all, He Mian'er is not an ordinary weak princess, when the new emperor was canonized in the past, she had 3,000 troops, which could be worth a small vassal king.

Shen Ji saw that the situation was not right, and he had already secretly summoned the soldiers stationed nearby, and at this moment, he was afraid that he was not far from the mansion, so he rushed into the mansion to rescue the driver as soon as He Mian'er gave an order.

He Mian'er knew that since the new emperor had issued a holy decree, she must have asked her to give everyone an explanation. If you rashly recruit troops to resist, it is tantamount to slapping the emperor in the face.

Then he shook his head and said to Shen Ji: "Go and call Xu Yunqing." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ji's face was inevitably a little lost, and when things reached such a critical juncture, she still thought about Xu Yunqing in her heart. It's a clenched fist.

He Mian'er had to hurriedly advise: "Remember to ask him to bring the letter I sent." ”

She knew that the letter was the key to whether she could turn around.

This letter can prove that it was Miss Bai who invited her first, and she directly handed the letter to the Xu family, which is to clear the relationship, and it can also prove from the side that she did not go to the appointment.

Shen Ji nodded solemnly and said to He Mian'er: "Shen Ji will definitely do it." ”

He Mian'er said reassuringly: "Since this is the case, this princess will go with you." Let's lead the way in front of adults. ”

As soon as these words came out, the people from the criminal department breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to themselves that if this princess refused to leave, he was afraid that there was no way. If it angers the soldiers outside, I am afraid it will be embarrassing.

At that moment, he said politely: "Your Highness is going here." ”

He Mian'er looked back at everyone and saw that Caifeng was already crying, and Yingzi was also with tears in her eyes, as if she smiled, signaling them not to worry.

As soon as I got out of the gate, I saw countless people watching the excitement outside the gate of the princess's mansion, with anxious eyes and a small noise in the crowd, all showing everyone's attention to this matter.

The people in the Criminal Department were quite reliable and carried a small sedan chair.

Although it is said that there is evidence, after all, it cannot be convicted immediately, and the doctor cannot be punished, not to mention that she is the eldest princess.

He Mian'er didn't wait for others to urge, and got on the sedan chair by herself, and now she was swaying by the sedan chair, and she didn't know where to go.

When I got to the place, I saw that it was a well-known prison of the Criminal Department.

He Mian'er couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly, never thinking that one day, when she was imprisoned in the prison, she laughed sarcastically in her heart.

The leader of the criminal department is surnamed Xiang, and he is extremely polite to He Mian'er, and even the cell where she is being held is the cleanest single room in the entire prison.

"Thank you for your concern." He Mian'er thanked him with a smile, took a step forward, stepped into the prison, and waited to see the cell head locked.

Only then did he ask unhurriedly: "I have already come, can you tell me that the second lady of the Bai family was unfortunately killed, what kind of evidence is there?" ”

That Lord Xiang didn't dare to delay, and immediately sent a case file that had been recorded.

He Mian'er took it and looked at it carefully, but the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became, this was a criminal case tailored for her.

According to Zijuan, the maid of the white jade smoke, her own lady received a letter of invitation from He Mian'er a few days ago, asking her to go to the Wanyue Lake meeting in the east of the city at midnight on the second day, only saying that there was something important to discuss.

After receiving this letter, her own lady was so anxious that she did not dare to tell anyone about it, and after hesitation, she decided to go to the meeting.

Zijuan followed her young lady to the Crescent Moon Lake, she didn't dare to follow, she only waited in the distance. Then I saw my own young lady talking to a woman.

The woman was of medium height, wrapped in a black cloak. The two seemed to be babbling something, but before she could see it clearly, she saw the two walking on the bank of the river.

The man took advantage of Miss Bai's inconvenience and reached out to push Miss Bai down. By the time she ran over, Miss Bai had fallen into the lake and was struggling.

By the time she summoned someone who knew how to water, Miss Bai didn't know where she was washed away by the river, and she was unconscious, and she couldn't save her.

He Mian'er closed the case file, closed her eyes and thought silently. The person behind this curtain is really high, very high.

took advantage of her embarrassing relationship with Bai Yuyan, and did not hesitate to harm an innocent human life, but also to put her to death.

Moreover, this matter has been proven, and the motive is reasonable.

This time, He Mian'er is afraid that it is difficult to prove herself. It's a tricky matter.

Seeing that Lord Xiang closed his eyes and thought silently, he didn't dare to disturb more, so he just silently stood aside.

When He Mian'er opened his eyes again, he took back the file and said: "What does Your Highness command, and tell Your Highness, where you can, you should do your best to satisfy Your Highness." ”

He Mian'er nodded her head and thanked her, and asked, "When will the court start?" ”

The Xiang Lord took a step forward, still rude and said: "Tomorrow at noon, if His Highness is innocent, he will not dare to delay His Highness's time." ”

The implication of this is that if there is no evidence to prove her innocence, I am afraid that she will be imprisoned forever.

He Mian'er nodded, then closed her eyes and said nothing. She needed to wait for Xu Yunqing to send the letter, which was the only proof that she would get out tomorrow.

What's more, the next day, she needs to carefully interrogate what happened that day and find a breakthrough.

It is inevitable to go to court with the Bai family.

This is the first time He Mian'er has been detained in prison as a suspect, and what she is doing is really mixed.

Within a moment, I heard someone talking at the door of the prison. He Mian'er had a slight hope in her heart, isn't it, Xu Yunqing is here?

She never thought of relying on Xu Yunqing to get away with it, but the evidence in his hands was very important to her.

What's more, the prison is silent, if he can come, she still feels a little comforted in her heart.

But he heard the noise of the man at the door, and he didn't know what he was saying. He Mian'er had a guess in her heart, someone came, I'm afraid it wasn't Xu Yunqing.

After all, he has always been a man of few words, so how can he quarrel with outsiders. What's more, as a general, no one dared to stop him when he entered a prison in the Criminal Department.

Sure enough, after a while, Lord Xiang entered the room with some embarrassment and said: "Your Highness Qiqi, at the door, it is Feng Gongzi who is making noise, shouting to come to see His Highness." ”

This matter made it more difficult for Lord Xiang, after all, this Feng Xianchuan didn't even have an idle position in the court, so it was inappropriate to put it in rashly.

But on the other hand, Feng Xianchuan seems to be the eldest princess's opinion, thinking about this layer, I think it is better to ask the princess for advice.

After all, at this moment, the princess is suspicious, and her identity is still there.

He Mian'er couldn't hide her disappointment, but she still nodded and said, "Let him in." "It's boring in prison, and it's easier to have Feng Xianchuan to accompany her.
