Since that day, the whole Rong Wangfu gradually discovered that there was something wrong between the prince and the princess: every time the prince saw the princess, he looked like he wanted to say something; When the princess saw the princess, she saluted and greeted her with several thoughtful manners, so polite that they seemed to be two strangers.

Yes, that's right, familiar strangers! That's how it feels.

Princess Rong was able to speak again, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. But because of this, trouble quickly came to the door - Gu Yannian died, and he was holding a bloodstained letter in his hand, and the handwriting on the letter was Lin Ruo's. Moreover, the body was sent to the Criminal Department, and Su Muyu personally conducted an autopsy, confirming that Gu Yannian was indeed stabbed to death head-on by a woman who did not know martial arts.

Gu Yannian is a military general, he has been in battle, he has killed the enemy, he can gain prestige in the army, and he can accumulate military merits and promotions, how can he be an ordinary person? But he was stabbed to death in the dead of night in an alley by a woman who didn't know martial arts, and he was stabbed more than once, what does it mean? The other party was someone he trusted, and he was reluctant to fight back, hurting the person who wanted to kill him.

For a while, all the clues pointed to Lin Ruo.

But Lin Ruo has been recuperating in the mansion with peace of mind these days, and he hasn't even taken half a step in the palace.

But who believes? Even if the whole of King Rong's mansion, including King Rong's Murong Chong, can testify for Lin Ruo, I'm afraid it won't help - people's words are terrifying!

Above the court, Gu Ting cried and asked the emperor to severely punish the murderer and give his son justice.

A dignified three-grade master, a book, howling and crying in front of the emperor, it is too unceremonious. However, the father and son, especially the most promising and outstanding son of the Gu Shangshu family, Gu Ting's true feelings were revealed, and Emperor Mingzong was not good at reprimanding the court, so as not to chill the courtiers - after all, many courtiers were mournful and embarrassed.

Although Gu Ting did not mention "Lin Ruo", an old father who experienced the pain of "a white-haired person sending a black-haired person", under the mourning, he listened to the bite of nonsense, and the words led everyone to equate the murderer with Lin Ruo, Murong Chong naturally could not pretend to be deaf and dumb, and argued with reason in the court, proving that Lin Ruo had never gone out these days, let alone at night, and even during the day, he was recuperating at home. However, the convincing level is too low.

In fact, it was not that Emperor Mingzong was partial, but that this letter purportedly was written by Lin Ruo, and when he saw it at first sight, he knew that it was not from Lin Ruo's hand. The reason is very simple, the handwriting of this letter is indeed very similar to Lin Ruo's handwriting, almost to the point of being fake and real - Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and Jingzhao Mansion determined that this handwriting was from Lin Ruo's hand after a joint investigation, which shows this.

But there are two words on it that clearly show the horse's feet: one is the word "Gu", when ordinary people write the "page" on the right half of the word "Gu", whether it is line, Kai, grass, subordinate or other, one of the three horizontal people will not be replaced by a "yao" shape like Lin Ruo. Because she rarely uses the word "Gu" in ordinary times, this habit is rarely known. The reason why Emperor Mingzong knew was that he saw it in her several love letters and asked the reason from her. The other is the word "Xi", because it is her sister's name, so when Lin Ruo writes the word "Xi", she will subconsciously write the word "Xi". At the bottom right, add a small "丿", a habit of more than ten years, which is not so easy to change. Even in the Buddhist scriptures copied for the Queen Mother, there was this habit, but it was reminded by Aunt Luyun after discovering it and re-copied it.

Few people know about these two things, so Emperor Mingzong is almost certain that this letter is not from Lin Ruo's hand.

However, he didn't say anything about it, he wanted to see who the people behind the scenes would be, and they would not hesitate to use Gu Yannian's life to set a trap and put Lin Ruo to death.

He sat on a high seat, overlooking his sons and courtiers below. The eyes that passed by, especially from the faces of the sons, King Ye's drooping eyes, the prince's anxiety, King Ning's frowning, and the different expressions on the faces of the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth sons who began to set foot in the court, were all visible.

The emperor's silence really made things worse.

Many courtiers began to express their positions, and those with sharp words even said that "the prince is guilty of breaking the law and the common people are guilty", even if Lin Ruo is favored again, but it is still not a real golden branch and jade leaf, since Dali Temple, the Criminal Department and Jingzhao Mansion all agree that the handwriting of this letter is Lin Ruo, then Princess Rong should be allowed to go to the court to be tried.

In the process of controversy, another incident was involved: Su Muyu, the newly appointed head of the criminal department of Dali Temple, showed favoritism and dissected the body without the consent of the Gu family!

The deceased is the greatest, not to mention the right deputy commander of the city defense battalion who has just been promoted, from the fourth grade! The skin of the body, the parents who received it, even if it was an accident, it could not hurt the hair and skin of the body for no reason!

This Jingping Hou Shizi is also bold!

Gu Ting seemed to have just heard the news, and he was so frightened that he almost fainted.

The ministers above were in an uproar.

Marquis Jingping immediately reprimanded the law officials for their nonsense. Even if he is tired and angry about this unlearned and perverse son, after all, he is his eldest son now, the son of the Marquis of Jingping, and the pillar of the Su family in the future, how can he allow people to attack him like this?

Sun Zheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, also came out to defend: "If you go back to the emperor, Liu Fa is so wrong!" This matter was indeed proposed by Chief Su to the minister, but it was agreed by the wife of Deputy Commander Gu You, and the minister was stamped together with Dali Siqing and Jingzhao Mansion Yin. And when the Su chief was in the autopsy, there was no suspicion of cover-up, Dali Temple, Jingzhao Mansion each sent an experienced veteran to inspect with Su Chief, at the same time, the recorded documents by the Criminal Department, Dali Temple and Jingzhao Mansion each sent two, the minister remembered very clearly, Liu Fazhi was not present that day, the minister really did not know that Liu Fazhi was in front of the emperor to interrogate, what is the intention! ”

Yin Yingzong and Dali Siqing, who were mentioned, simply recognized the matter when they heard this. Dali Siqing glanced at Liu Fazhi meaningfully, as for what to think about this subordinate who trapped him in the unrighteous heart, this group of people who have been immersed in officialdom for a long time can guess some in their hearts.

The truth about Gu Yannian's accidental murder is actually not what everyone cares about, they are used to using all kinds of things to pull people from the enemy party into the water. There is no doubt that the whole thing gradually evolved into a partisan dispute between King Ye and the crown prince.

In the end, it was Qiu Kui, the old man of the Shoufu Pavilion, who was upright, spoke sharply and loudly, and assumed the position of the chief judge of the three sessions. Qiu Ge is always known for his hard temper, of course, because he jointly handled the case of the Jinling Lin family's rebellion and rehabilitation, he always had an appreciation for Gu Ting, and he also had doubts about the emperor's constant suppression of Gu Ting. At his age, it was time to return to his hometown and return to his hometown, but Emperor Mingzong kept him, and he stayed in the court when he was over the age.

It stands to reason that Gu Ting should be pleased with this result, but when he knelt down to thank him, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes showed imperceptible worry and uneasiness.
