Lan Yi nodded and asked Ning Fu to send people out.

Seeing that the wind was gradually rising outside, sweeping the green leaves on the branches, and the sky was sunny and cloudy, as if it was about to rain, Lan Yi got up and asked, "Where is Your Highness now?" ”

Ruihua said: "His Royal Highness went to the court, but he didn't come back, maybe he went to the yamen to do business." ”

Lan Yi thought for a while, and suddenly said, "It's okay, don't let him know." Tell the people in the house to keep their mouths shut, especially those who are friends with Xiao Yanzi, if I let me know that Xiao Yanzi handed the letter to His Highness, I will break his leg when I come back. ”

Ruihua asked hesitantly, "Princess, what are you going to do?" ”

Lan Yi flicked his sleeves, clasped his hands, and said with a firm gaze: "With Miaoqing's corpse and that purple bead, let's hand over the sign to the palace and ask for justice for those lives who should not leave!" ”

There is no better way for water chestnut, but she obviously feels that it is not good to do so, "But princess, Concubine Pei Shu is dead, we have no evidence, that Zizhu, at first glance, is the person who is Ying Guifei, maybe if she is killed, he will not confide in the main messenger." ”

Lan Yi took a deep breath, "The current situation is that if we don't enter the palace, the palace of King Yu's Mansion will also look for us to ask for people, so it's better to fight, and Concubine Ying, the fish will die and the net will be broken." ”

The water chestnut was speechless, she was silent for a moment, and suddenly stepped forward to hug Lan Yi, and said firmly: "The slave will accompany the princess." ”

Feeling the strength of the water chestnut, Lan Yi can also feel a lot more at ease, she knows that this time, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious - if you don't pay a price, how can you calm this impending mountain rain?

Lan Yi arranged for someone to send He Sheng, who was still asleep, back to Yuwang's mansion, and prepared a carriage to go to the palace, and behind her was another small sedan chair, in which was the dead Pei Miaoqing.

It's also a coincidence, the moment the carriage moved forward, a thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, and the heavy rain poured in, Lan Yi hurriedly let the water chestnut also come in to hide from the rain, and the little guy who was driving the car outside had no place to stay, and he had to pacify the horse, and he had to brave the rain to move forward, fortunately, he was used to it, according to Lan Yi's temperament, he would send them back directly to change people later, and he would also tell the kitchen to boil a bowl of hot ginger soup for them to pour down.

And through the thick rain curtain, the road ahead is a little unclear, the pedestrians on the street have disappeared, I don't know which eaves to hide under the rain, the sky and the earth are vast, everything is hazy, no one gives the best answer, Lan Yi only knows that at this moment, no one can shelter himself from the wind and rain, let alone stop.

The huge raindrops hit the simple and heavy bluestone slabs in Beijing, splashing water, and the horse pulling the cart was shocked by thunder before, but now it was full of interest in the rain, and went forward to the palace gate.

However, with a corpse, where is the Forbidden Palace so easy to enter. Standing beside Lan Yi with an umbrella, the master and servant waited for a long time in front of the vermilion gate, until the rain subsided and the hem of the clothes was soaked, and the news came that the emperor had finally finished handling all the government affairs.

When the emperor heard of this appalling thing, he immediately summoned them, and by this time the torrential rain had passed, and the lazy sun had already set in the west, and poked out his head, and was stingy with even a little residual warmth.

The sedan chair was not allowed to enter the palace, so the little eunuchs found another stretcher, moved Miaoqing to it, hastily covered it with a layer of white cloth, and carried it in.

Lan Yi asked: "My skirt is soaked and my appearance is untidy, should I change my clothes and go to see me again?" ”

The little eunuch who led the way said: "The princess doesn't need to be so troublesome, since the emperor said that he wants to see you at this moment, then no matter what you look like now, you must go in immediately." ”

Lan Yi nodded, said no more, and walked in step by step.

Due to the fact that the back position is now vacant, and all kinds of clues point to Concubine Ying, who should have dealt with this matter, the emperor had to meet Lan Yi in person in Qianming Palace.

Naturally, Lan Yi is a female dependent, and her identity is only the prince's wife, and she is not qualified to enter the study of Qianming Palace, so she can only find a more spacious warm pavilion to deal with this matter.

All the palaces and pavilions in the Qianming Palace will not save candles, especially where the emperor has moved, although the sky is not completely dark, it is already brightly lit. Lan Yi looked at the light inside, like a person walking in the dark, and finally saw a glimmer of hope, but he didn't relax at all, took a deep breath, and walked in calmly.

On the other side, Chang Jue was busy for a day, and finally raised his head from the pile of official documents, the air after the rain mixed with the smell of grass and earth has permeated the surroundings, Chang Jue and the adults around him exchanged a few words, nothing more than to say how heavy the rain was just now, in fact, Lan Yi has always been in his heart, while getting up and walking out, he asked Xiao Yanzi in a low voice, "Are they all scattered in the house?" ”

Xiao Yanzi suddenly became very cramped, "It should all be scattered,"

Wei Changjue stopped, he, "What do you mean by 'should'?" Didn't I tell you that you should keep an eye on the princess all day today, and if anything happens, tell me immediately? You don't even know if they're scattered or not, what is this going on? ”

Xiao Yanzi's eyes dodged, "It's scattered, it's all scattered, Your Highness, you can go back, the slave just accompanied you and fainted, and said the wrong thing." ”

But the people who get along day and night are too familiar with each other, Wei Changjue put his hands behind his back and asked solemnly: "You have something to hide from me." What happened to Lan Yi? ”

Xiao Yanzi snorted, Wei Changjue was already angry, "I'll let you say it!" ”

Xiao Yanzi had never received such a reprimand, and immediately knelt on the ground, almost crying: "Princess, princess, she went to the palace." ”

"Why went to the palace? Get up and talk back. ”

Xiao Yanzi didn't dare to get up, kowtowed and said: "It's Concubine Pei Shu who died, Concubine Pei Shu died in King Gong's mansion, the Ruihua next to the princess said that this matter can't be mixed with His Royal Highness, if His Royal Highness and the people in the back house of King Yu's mansion are involved, it is reasonable to say clearly, slave, slave dare not ......"

"You are so bold that you don't report it, I will settle this account with you later." Wei Changjue was angry and anxious, and he didn't have time to say anything, so he strode out.

Xiao Yanzi got up from the ground hand and foot on the ground and chased after him.

Wei Changjue got into the carriage and said directly: "Go to the palace gate." ”

Xiao Yanzi persuaded him bitterly, tugging at his hem, and begging non-stop, "Your Highness, Your Highness, you can't go, you promised the princess not to interfere in this matter, and the princess has already taken care of everything alone, if you are also trapped, who will save the princess?" ”

Wei Changjue said: "Let go." ”

He was about to kick someone, but Xiao Yanzi didn't hide, "Ruihua said to the minion, this time, if you don't get it right, it's the thunder and holy anger, the princess told you thousands of times, I can't let you have a little relationship, and the slave must not let you enter the palace!" ”

Wei Changjue bent down, grabbed Xiao Yanzi's arm, and said hurriedly, "Do you know what you're talking about?" I don't want to do it in front of you, but you've made a mistake, and from today onwards, I don't need you to say otherwise, you still dare to stop me?! ”

Xiao Yanzi cried, "Your Highness, the slave will not let you get into danger, even if you can't serve you in the future, or take this life, you will admit it." Begging you, minions! ”

Loyal people, what they say is inevitably touching, Xiao Yanzi grew up with him, much longer than Lan Yi has been by his side, it is really difficult to let Wei Changjue kick him away.

But Wei Changjue lowered his head, and just one sentence made him let go.

"Xiao Yanzi, I beg you too, I have to enter the palace, Lan Yi is working hard for our children, if something happens to her, and I can't protect her, do you think I still care about King Gong, what the world, or even, my own life?"

Xiao Yanzi was stunned, and his hand gradually fell.

Wei Changjue didn't say anything more, got into the carriage, and gave an order, "Go to the palace gate!" ”

It was getting late, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and I galloped all the way to the gate of the palace, but I listened to the guards guarding the door: "Your Highness, the palace gate will be locked in a while, and the emperor has not summoned you, so please go back." ”

Wei Changjue didn't know what the situation was inside, so he only pleaded, "You go and report it, and say that I am here to pick up Princess Gong, and my father will definitely see me." ”

When he was entangled with the guards, Lan Yi had already told the emperor about the matter as it was, and it was like daylight in the Qianming Palace, the emperor sat behind the table, glanced at the corpse outside the door, and said coldly: "Amazing, since the founding of Dashun, I am afraid that you are the only one who has brought the corpse into the palace like this." ”

Lan Yi knelt and didn't dare to look up, "Father, the son has no way out, I can only beg you, you can find a random job, as long as you give Miaoqing an autopsy, you can know what the cause of her death is!" ”

"No way out? Look, you've been forcing others to have no way out. ”

"Erchen doesn't dare."

The emperor's anger was hidden under his calm face, "You dare, Pei Lanyi, the courage of all the women in this world combined is not as big as you." ”

Lan Yi kowtowed, because she was pregnant, it would be more difficult to do such an action than others, "Father, the son makes you angry, even if he redeems him with death after giving birth to a child, it is natural, but it is because the person sitting in the Qianming Palace is you that the son feels that there is justice in this world, so he dares to do such a thing." ”

The emperor glared at her, but he didn't think that this was a big deal, but he called Gonggong Liu with some annoyance, "You immediately find someone to do the autopsy, as soon as you can, and later, this Princess Gong, I'm afraid that the roof of the Qianming Palace will be demolished!" ”

"My father's words are serious, but my sons don't dare."

The emperor looked at her again and said coldly, "Pregnant, get up and talk back." ”

Lan Yi whispered, "Thank you for your father's grace" and slowly stood up.

The emperor asked: "You dare to convict Concubine Pei Shu without any evidence?" ”

Lan Yi lowered her head, "Back to my father's words, it's not that her son condemned her, it's that she has done too many evils and can't live today." Erchen only said that there was a little palace maid in the palace who saw her committing murder, and she couldn't help it and wanted to hurt Erchen. ”
