"Princess, be careful! The family members of my second-class members of Shengguo, how can you kill them if you want to?! ”

Zhen Yu stood in front of Yan Ran, and stopped Ayina with righteous words.

Ayina listened to Zhen Yu's words, and her face showed a look of resentment and forbearance.

Yan Ran motioned for Qingxuan and Xianluo to help her up and walked in front of Ayina: "Princess, this dress is indeed mine." But isn't it too hasty to conclude that I am a murderer based on just one piece of clothing? ”

Ayina was still indignant: "Then how do you explain that Azuki will wear your clothes?" ”

Yan Ran didn't answer immediately, but said to Wen and Zhen Yu: "Please also ask Mother and Zhen'er to stay away for the time being, I have something to say to the princess alone." ”

Zhen Yu was not worried that Yan Ran was alone with the menacing Ayina, but Wen was happy to see it.

If Yan Ran angered Ayina and was killed by Ayina with a sword, she would not have to do it!

The people in the tent all withdrew, leaving only Yan Ran and Ayina behind.

Yan Ran could only sit due to a foot injury, so she invited Ayina to sit together.

Ayina was anxious to know the truth about Ah Zhu's killing, so she only looked at Yan Ran coldly: "What do you want to say?" ”

Yan Ran said sincerely: "Princess, I can tell you what I have seen and heard truthfully, but before that, please always remember the purpose of this trip to Shengguo." ”

Ayina looked at Yan Ran vigilantly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Yan Ran sighed lightly and described in detail what happened in the afternoon.

After hearing this, Ayina was furious: "It was the prince who killed Azhu?!" I'm going to make him ......"

Ayina paused halfway through her words, and understood why Yan Ran had just reminded her.

The purpose of Da Yueguo's trip is to make peace with Sheng Guo, is she still going to affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries for the sake of a maidservant?

Ayina looked at Yan Ran angrily: "Do you think I will have to stop fighting in order to take care of the overall situation?" You're wrong, Ah Zhu is not my handmaiden, she is my sister! Even if the peace talks break down and cause war, I will never let her die in vain, and I must seek justice for her! ”

Yan Ran interrupted Ayina in a deep voice: "Doesn't the princess want to find the real murderer who killed Azhu?" ”

Ayina turned around and said suspiciously, "Didn't you say that it was the prince who killed Azhu?" ”

Yan Ran said slowly: "I can understand the princess's feelings, I grew up with my maid Qingxuan since childhood, although I am called the master and servant, we are actually brothers." If anyone dares to hurt her, I will do whatever it takes, and I would rather break the jade than destroy it. It's just that there is another hidden story in this matter, and I need the princess to help me make a scene to lure the people behind the scenes out. That person is the real murderer who killed Ah Zhu. ”

After Ayina left Yan Ran's tent, she went directly to the Queen Mother, saying that she had interrogated Yan Ran and was sure that the matter had nothing to do with her.

Since Ayina was not held accountable, the Queen Mother was too lazy to hold Yan Ran accountable, so she did not summon Yan Ran again.

Soon after Ayina returned to the camp, the Lord of Jinluan came to inquire about the situation.

As soon as she entered the door, she asked anxiously, "Aina, why did you let Yan Ran go?" I've dealt with her, she's the best at clever words, don't be fooled by her quibbles! Ah Zhu was wearing her clothes when she died, she must be the murderer of Ah Zhu! ”

Ayina shook her head: "She's not a murderer. ”

Lord Jinluan wondered, "How do you know for sure?" ”

Ayina calmly analyzed: "Azhu was killed on the spot by someone with an arrow through the chest, and the woman will not have that much arm strength to do this." Besides, she was the daughter of a high-ranking official in the Sheng Kingdom, and a single piece of clothing was not enough to convict her. And ......"

Ayina paused, lowered her voice, and said mysteriously: "She has a letter written by Azhu before his death, in which the truth of Azhu's death is clarified. Tomorrow, Yan Ran will expose in public who the murderer of Ah Zhu is! ”

The county lord of Jin Luan was taken aback, and then questioned, "How could she have Azhu's letter?" And, if she really does, why wait until tomorrow to announce it? Could it be that she is going to use tonight's time to forge a letter on the fly? ”

Ayina said firmly: "Yan Ran showed me the payment of that letter, and there is no doubt that it is indeed Azhu's handwriting. Previously, Ah Zhu had been with me and had never seen Yan Ran, so she would not know Ah Zhu's handwriting. Therefore, that letter must have been written by Ah Zhu himself. Tomorrow, everything will be known! ”

Seeing that Ayina had made up his mind, the lord of Jinluan County stopped persuading and left in a hurry.

In the middle of the night, Yan Ran lay on the bed, tossing and turning.

If she really died under the mouth of a poisonous snake today, it must be rumored tomorrow that she killed Ah Zhu and absconded but was bitten to death by a poisonous snake, which is really evil and evil.

However, as the parties concerned, Xiao Zun and the crown prince, neither of them had a reason to kill Yan Ran.

Xiao Zun also wanted to use Yan Ran as a raft and let her testify against the prince.

The prince is not afraid of being known that he killed a servant girl, as long as he is casually charged with a big disrespect, who cares about the life of a servant girl?

Besides, if he really wants to kill people, it is not enough to kill only one Yan Ran, there are also witnesses and Zhen Yu, so many maidservants and guards, and even the golden guards beside the queen.

Besides, Master Yan is now considered the prince's faction, and the prince has not had time to win over people, so how can he offend people for this?

Taking a step back, even if the prince really wanted Yan Ran to be a scapegoat, he could allow her some benefits and directly put the blame on her.

After all, Yan Ran is the daughter of a high-ranking official, even if she really killed Ah Zhu, Sheng Guo would not let her go to pay for the life of a servant girl in Dayue Kingdom.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be too disgraceful to the country?

Therefore, there must be a third person in this matter.

And this person has a personal vendetta with Yan Ran.

can be involved in the power struggle of the prince, and has a feud with Yan Ran, this person's identity is about to come out.

Yan Ran was thinking heavily, and Qingxuan suddenly ran in and shouted, "Girl, it's caught!" ”

Yan Ran got up slowly: "Quick, help me over!" ”

Yan Ran conspired with Ayina to deliberately release the news that she held Azhu's handwritten letter in her hand, and the people behind the scenes would definitely be weak and come to destroy the evidence.

Yan Ran had a big quarrel with Yan Yao under the pretext of driving her to live with the Wen family, and secretly went to the residence of Qingxuan and others, so that Ayina lived in her tent and caught the people behind the scenes with her own hands.

Yan Ran returned to the camp tent and saw a man in black being tied up and pressed to the ground.

Ayina looked at the man condescendingly, and hatred swelled in her eyes: "I recognize you, you are the guard next to the Lord of Jinluan, and she sent you?" ”

The guard had a strong temperament, and when he couldn't get his death, he kept silent.

Ayina sneered: "It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I'll let her say it herself!" ”

Ayina ordered someone to escort the man in black and went straight to the camp of the county lord of Jinluan.

Yan Ran was carried by Qingxuan and trotted all the way behind.

A dim oil lamp burned in the county lord's tent, and she was pacing anxiously to and fro.

The door to the tent was opened, and a black figure flashed in.

Lord Jinluan stepped forward and asked eagerly, "Have you found the letter?" ”

But Aina then walked in, and the whole tent was lit up with torches.

Ayina kicked down the guards who were tied hand and foot, stepped forward and grabbed the collar of the county lord of Jinluan, and was furious: "It turned out to be you!" ”

Lord Jinluan panicked and retreated again and again: "Aina, what are you talking about?" ”

Ayina asked, "Why did you send someone to steal Azu's letters?" ”

Lord Jinluan's heart was in turmoil, and he laughed dryly: "I, I'm afraid that Yan Ran will make perjury, so, so ......"

Yan Ran arrived just in time and sneered: "Is the county lord afraid that I will make perjury, or is he a thief and wants to destroy the evidence?" ”

The county lord of Jinluan looked at Yan Ran angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

Xian Luo moved a chair, and Qingxuan helped Yan Ran to sit down.

Yan Ran sat down, and then spoke: "I have always felt strange, Ah Zhu wore Sheng Guo's clothes to hide his identity, and deliberately ran in front of me to slander the prince and belittle her, what is the purpose?" ”

The county lord of Jinluan roared impatiently: "How do I know! ”

Yan Ran smiled lightly and continued: "The envoy of the Great Yue Kingdom to Sheng Guo this time is to conclude a good relationship between the two countries, and it is impossible for Ah Zhu to take the initiative to offend the prince. So, someone must have said something to her. ”

Ayina asked sharply, "What did you say to Ah Zhu to make her use for you willingly?" ”

The county lord of Jinluan shook off Aina's hand, and changed from panic at the beginning to an appearance of holding back anger: "I don't know what you're talking about!" Aina, I told you a long time ago, Yan Ran has always been clever and eloquent, don't be fooled by her! ”

Yan Ran didn't care how the county lord of Jinluan slandered her, and only said quietly: "I guess the county lord may have said this to Ah Zhu." The peace talks between the Great Viet Kingdom and the Shengguo Kingdom inevitably had to consolidate diplomatic relations by marriage. You've even heard that the crown prince is interested in marrying Aina. For the sake of friendship between the two countries, Aina has no reason to refuse. But the prince is a good match. Azhu is loyal, she doesn't want Ayina to marry away from her hometown, nor does she want her to live unhappily with her relatives.

Therefore, under your guidance, Ah Zhu left under the pretext of hunting, changed into the Shengguo costume you prepared for her in advance, concealed her identity and framed the prince, and let me and Zhen Yu as witnesses. Afterwards, Ah Zhu can escape, no one will suspect her at all, and the prince's reputation is ruined, and this marriage will naturally not be completed.

But you didn't expect that the prince was framed, and in a fit of rage, he killed Ah Zhu. You're afraid of causing a bigger controversy, and I happened to have put a garment on Ah Zhu, so you want to put the charge of murder on me. ”

The county lord of Jinluan was shocked and frightened, this matter was extremely secretive, why was Yan Ran able to guess the ins and outs of the matter?

Her face changed suddenly, and she vigorously denied it: "All this is just your speculation, you dare to pour any dirty water on me without evidence?" I will definitely report this matter to the Queen Mother and cure you of a crime of disrespect!" ”

Yan Ran smiled lightly and said calmly: "The county lord wants to kill me, which is the best evidence." ”

The county lord of Jinluan didn't know whether he was angry or frightened, his whole body trembled, and he sneered: "You were almost bitten to death by a poisonous snake, you deserve it, what do you have to do with me?" ”

The smile on Yan Ran's face became even bigger, but it made people feel cold: "Oh, I have never told anyone, how could the county lord know about my encounter with a snake?" ”
