Those students walked all the way to Zhongchen Street, and along the way, they attracted more good deeds.

By the time they arrived at the Anping Eldest Princess's Mansion on Zhongchen Street, the team had nearly doubled, and the people who watched the excitement were all in high spirits and their eyes were bright.

The students sat cross-legged in front of the gate of the princess's mansion, and the Tsing Yi man sat at the front, and said in a loud voice in the direction of the princess's mansion:

"The eldest girl of Duanmu Mansion murdered her cousin, the evidence of the crime is conclusive, if she is not brought to justice, it is really intolerable and difficult to calm the anger of the people!"

"The new emperor has just ascended the throne, if he can't deal with his relatives impartially, I'm afraid it will make the people's hearts unstable."

"Please also ask Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to administer justice, and give the deceased a truth, so that his spirit in heaven can rest in peace!"

Tsing Yi said it in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner.

Some of the people who followed these readers to see the excitement didn't know what was going on, and asked each other for news.

When they heard about what happened in Jingzhao Mansion, their expressions were different, some were filled with righteous indignation, some were shocked, some were full of interest, some were worried, and some called for friends......

The gate of the princess's mansion became more and more noisy, and Zhongchen Street was surrounded by these people, and at a glance, it was all black and oppressive heads.

The porter of the princess's mansion naturally heard the movement outside and hurriedly sent someone to Anping.

An Ping and the guests are mostly gathered in the theater to listen to the play at the moment, and on the stage, a few actors with heavy makeup and fancy clothes are twisting their waists and babbling and singing to the lingering string music.

The maid lowered her voice and told the story of those who raised their sons to meditate outside the princess's mansion, including those who claimed that Duanmu had murdered their cousin. While talking, the corner of the maid's eyes couldn't help but glance at Duanmu Fei beside Anping.

Duanmu scarlet drank tea elegantly with a blue and white porcelain teacup, looking quiet.

A few of the ladies around also heard it, and the ladies couldn't help but look at each other dumbfounded, and some almost choked on the tea.

They had long noticed that Duanmujun had left the table early, but they never thought that the reason was that she was sued by her uncle for murdering her cousin.

Many ladies don't have the heart to watch the play anymore.

With An Ping here, these ladies didn't dare to talk loudly, so they could only exchange their eyes silently, shocked, confused, curious, and thoughtful.

Most people's hearts are haunted by the same question: Is Duanmu the real murderer?

So, those eyes couldn't help but look at Duanmu Fei, trying to find some clues from her expression.

Mrs. Fu was also looking at Duanmufei, her eyes surging with extremely strong and complex emotions.

Their Fu family and Duanmu family were supposed to be in-laws, and the two surnames were good together, but because the Duanmu sisters were in the way, the marriage between the daughter and Duanmu Heng was ruined, and the daughter was forced step by step to the point where she is now.

The two sisters of the Duanmu family are too deceitful!

Fu Yingxuan is Mrs. Fu's only daughter, she was conceived and born in October, how can Mrs. Fu not feel sorry for her daughter.

But Duanmu's family was powerful, and he didn't dare to provoke him, so he could only watch his daughter being sent to Jingxin Nunnery by the master, and the mother and daughter never saw each other.

In the past three years, her daughter has suffered so much!

Thinking of her daughter, who had lost a lot of weight, Mrs. Fu felt that her heart was stuffy and painful.

This is the daughter she grew up in the palm of her hand, the daughter of a dignified feudal official, she should have married in style, fed in her husband's house, taught her husband and children, and became the object of envy of others, but the truth is completely the opposite.

Her daughter became a disgrace to the Fu family, an object of contempt for others, and fell from the clouds to dust......

Mrs. Fu lowered her eyelids and took a sip of tea, and the ups and downs of tea in the tea cup were reflected in her eyes, and her eyes were chaotic.

All these years, she has been regretting that she has done too little for her daughter......

As a mother, she is strong, this time, she must help her daughter.

A determined light flashed in Mrs. Fu's eyes.

She sighed lowly, shook her head, and sighed as if inadvertently: "Hey, mother-in-law is embarrassed! ”

Mrs. Fu's voice was as low as a mosquito, and only Mrs. Xinghebo beside her could hear it.

Mrs. Xinghebo's heart moved, and suddenly remembered that when Mrs. Fu chatted with her, she talked about the difficulties of her sister-in-law, her nephew had just renewed the strings recently, and she had a happy event, and the mother-in-law who was born in the step-room was used to coming to things, and the new nephew-in-law helped her mother's family to find Mrs. Fu's nephew to cry at every turn, which added a lot of trouble to the family, so that her sister-in-law was completely tired of this new daughter-in-law, and simply stuffed people in her son's room to rectify her daughter-in-law.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Xinghebo's heartbeat accelerated rapidly, and her eyes looked eagerly at An Ping.

Oh, yes.

If she were Anping, the Duanmu family would make such an ugly thing today, and even the princess's mansion would become a joke in the eyes of others, and she would only get tired of Duanmu Fei.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity not to be missed. If he could show his face in front of Anping, maybe Anping would be happy, and he would choose his daughter for the new emperor......

Mrs. Xinghebo's eyes brightened, she grabbed the handkerchief in her hand, and said to An Ping euphemistically: "Your Highness, what the lifters said is very true, Your Highness should think twice, don't affect the emperor's reputation." ”

Although she didn't explicitly mention the Duanmu family, the ladies present could understand the meaning of her words, and it was clear that the reputation of the new emperor was about to be affected by the Duanmu family.

Saying that, Mrs. Xinghe couldn't help but look at Duanmufei, thinking that she would lose her color and be uneasy.

No, Duanmu Fei was still calm and relaxed, drinking tea by himself, as elegant as a lady's picture.

Mrs. Xinghe Bo was disappointed and disdainful in her heart, and said secretly: Hmph, how about Duanmu Fei's toughness! If Anping has to give it to the Xindisai people, can Duanmu Fei still be able to do it, and can he still be on the bar with Anping? !

That's right, when her daughter enters the palace smoothly and gives birth to a prince, then her family may not be able to be promoted from Bofu to Guogongfu!

Duanmu Fei is the queen, and then it depends on which prince is the most promising, and the mother is more precious than the son, which is the same truth through the ages.

Mrs. Xinghebo just thought about it, and she felt that her heart was on fire.

Some of the ladies around also saw that Mrs. Xing Hebo wanted to show her face in front of Anping. They were afraid that Xinghe Bofu would get a head start, so they were also anxious, and they echoed one after another: "This murder pays for life, and this case must be handled impartially." ”

"It's about the emperor's reputation, and it should really be handled carefully, you can't wronged people, and you can't chill the hearts of your sons."

“……”

In a warm echo, Mrs. Xinghe Bo looked at An Ping expectantly, hoping that she would say something so that she could go ahead.

However, An Ping's expression was faint, his red lips were slightly pursed, and he couldn't see his joy or anger.

She just waved away the maid who came to her, and did not give any instructions, and it seemed that she did not intend to pay attention to the movers who were meditating outside the house.

Mrs. You, Mrs. Fan, Mrs. Lin and other ladies on the side secretly exchanged glances.

They are all people who understand, and they know what Mingxing and Mrs. Bo and others are up to, and they secretly sigh in their hearts that these people really don't die without the heart of the Yellow River.

Whether the new emperor drafts a concubine or not, that is the choice of the new emperor, and it is not the turn of the courtiers to rush to stuff their daughters into the harem.

Mansions like Xinghebo Mansion and Anding Marquis Mansion are always staring at the one-third of an acre of land in the harem, and it is no wonder that one generation is not as good as the next.

Not wanting to spoil the atmosphere of today's peony banquet, Mrs. You changed the topic with a smile: "Your Highness, this "Legend of Peony" by the Qingping Department is really good. In the first two years, the repertoire of the Qingping Department was sung back and forth, and it was boring and tight. ”

Mrs. Fan said playfully: "Yes, in the past two years, all the prefectures held banquets and preferred to invite outside opera troupes, such as the Jiusi class and the Lingyin class. ”

"In addition to this "Legend of the Peony", there are several new plays in the Qingping Department that are also singing well, and you can listen to any "Mirror Flower" and "Baochai Ji".

An Ping was also a little interested, and said with a smile: "Then the palace should keep them in the house to sing for the palace for two more days." ”

As soon as they talked about the play, they were full of interest.

After a while, another housekeeper ran into the theater in a hurry, came to Anping's side, and said a few words to Anping in her ear.

An Ping's face changed slightly.

The ladies present immediately realized that they were afraid that something had happened again, could it be that the people outside the mansion had made something happen?

An Ping immediately stood up and said to Duanmu Fei: "Scarlet, you go with the palace." ”

The ladies looked at An Ping in disbelief, and watched her and Duanmu Fei leave the theater without looking back.

Compared with others, Mrs. Fu was calm and relaxed, and said secretly: It seems that it should be done!

Mrs. Fu's lips hidden behind the teacup curled slightly, her face was happy, and then she returned to normal.

"What's going on here?" Mrs. Fu frowned deliberately, and said in a low voice, "I look at His Highness's expression and it seems that something is wrong......

The other ladies looked at each other again, and they didn't dare to speculate.

A lady in a purple gown looked at An Ping's back and said, "I've never seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess like this......

Several other ladies are also frequent. Anping has always been moody, that is, during the reign of the abolished emperor, she was in a difficult situation, but she never flattered the abolished emperor because of this.

What happened to make Anping change his face?!

Could it be related to the new emperor?

The same thought comes to the minds of many people.

Mrs. Fu looked around at everyone and proposed, "Why don't we go and have a look together?" She said, standing up.

The female guests had different expressions when they heard this, some hesitated, some disagreed, and some were already ready to move, and they were immediately moved by Mrs. Fu's words, and five or six ladies followed and stood up one after another.

When everyone came out of the theater, they saw An Ping and Duanmu Fei walking along a flower corridor to the Lotus Shadow Pavilion in front.

The ladies also hastened their steps and followed.

Soon, Anping stopped in front of the gate of the Lotus Shadow Pavilion, Duanmufei was standing behind Anping's right, and the two of them looked at the gate quietly, neither entering.

Seven or eight ladies, including Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Bo, also stopped, and couldn't help whispering to each other.

These ladies present are all women in the house, and they have a lot of private affairs in the house at this age.

As the saying goes, if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen a pig run.

Most people understood that something was going on in this Lotus Shadow Pavilion, and moreover, it was still an unsightly thing.

The window sashes on all sides of the Lotus Shadow Pavilion were tightly closed, quiet inside and out.

On the other side of the lake, there was a faint sound of opera singing, and as soon as the wind blew, the sound dispersed, appearing distant and ethereal.

Everyone looked at An Ping with subtle expressions, and the smart people had already guessed who the people in this water pavilion were.

It's not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen, haven't they heard about it before?!

The atmosphere is very delicate.

The corners of Mrs. Fu's lips hooked again, and she quietly approached Duanmu Fei, and asked quietly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Fourth girl Duanmu, can you think about it?" ”

Duanmufei turned his head to look at Mrs. Fu and raised his right eyebrow slightly, "Mrs. Fu." ”

Mrs. Fu stretched out her hand to make an invitation and said with a smile: "Can you take a step to speak?" ”

The two looked at each other quietly for a moment, Mrs. Fu did not dodge, and the smile on her lips became stronger.

Duanmu Fei moved first and walked towards a rockery in front of him, and after Mrs. Fu elegantly stroked her skirt, she followed.

Behind the rockery with strange rocks, an octagonal pavilion was built by the lake.

There was no one around, and there was silence.

This gazebo has a great view, and from the location of the gazebo, you can see the entire lake, as well as those pavilions on the lakeside.

Duanmu Fei entered the pavilion, sat down on the railing bench, and said straight to the point: "If Mrs. Fu has anything to say, just say it directly." ”

Mrs. Fu carefully looked around, convinced that the people in the water pavilion, hall, and balcony were far away, so she was relieved.

"Fourth girl Duanmu, what Fengxian told you, can you think about it?" Mrs. Fu also walked into the pavilion and sat down, with a calm look in her expression.

Although Duanmufei told Fengxian before that she had to consider it, Mrs. Fu was very confident that Duanmufei had no other choice at all.

"Consider what?" Duanmu said lightly.

Mrs. Fu frowned, she didn't expect things to come to this point, and Duanmufei still had to pretend to be stupid.

Mrs. Fu said patiently: "Fourth girl Duanmu, now that a group of students have gathered outside the princess's mansion, they all believe that Sister Ling is the murderer, what do you think Sister Ling will do?" ”

"Do you want your sister to be a murderer?"

"Even if you don't think about Sister Ling, you should always think about yourself, right? You will be the queen soon, and with the murderer's sister, how will you gain a foothold among the concubines in the palace in the future? ”

"I don't need to say anything more about the stakes, right?"

Mrs. Fu looked at Duanmu Fei with a smile.

Duanmu Fei raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Fu, who was only a foot away from her, her big black and white eyes flashed with coldness, and she said lightly: "This bureau is really big!" ”

At this moment, the other party's grievances are a kind of praise in Mrs. Fu's eyes.

Mrs. Fu smiled and said softly, "It's easy to say." ”

Duanmu Fei stared deeply at Mrs. Fu and asked, "Do you really have evidence to prove that my sister is innocent?" ”

"That's nature." Mrs. Fu smiled and comforted Duanmufei, "I can deceive the girl for a while, but I can't deceive the girl for the rest of my life, right?" ”

"In the future, the girl will be ranked in the middle palace...... The little girl still has to rely on the girl's 'Duoduo' to take care of it. ”

Mrs. Fu's last sentence was meaningful.

Of course, there will be "evidence", if there is no "evidence", how will they continue to handle Duanmufei in the future!

Hmph, if Duanmu Fei thought that this matter would end so easily, then she would be too naïve.

And that's just the beginning!

Mrs. Fu's eyes flashed with a strange light, and she said secretly: What if Duanmu Jun's innocence is proven today?!

The fact that Duanmu Scarlet is a demon is a handle.

Duanmu Fei is about to become a queen?!

Sooner or later, she will also be reduced to a wasted queen, and she will never be able to turn over, which is what their sisters owe to her daughter.

These two sisters are really harmful, since their marriage to their daughter is gone, let them pay their daughter for a marriage.

They caused their daughter to stay in a madhouse like Jingxin Nunnery for so long, then, in the future, Duanmu Fei will stay up in the cold palace and double the compensation for his daughter!

Mrs. Fu waited for Duanmu Fei to death, her eyes becoming more and more gloomy little by little, like a she-wolf. Now that Duanmu Fei has stepped into their trap, she doesn't want to get out of the way!

The breeze blew into the pavilion, causing the willow branches next to it to sway and rattle.

Duanmufei's slender fingers slowly rolled the handkerchief in his hand, and then asked, "What is the evidence?" ”

As if she had heard some joke, Mrs. Fu hooked her lips and smiled, "How could I tell the girl now?" ”

Mrs. Fu was proud and felt that this matter had become nine times out of ten. In the final analysis, Duanmu Fei is just a little girl who has just reached Lu, how can she not panic when she suddenly encounters such a thing?!

What they have to do is to press step by step, they can't give Duanmufei a chance to ask for help, everything must be fast, forcing Duanmufei to bow down to them!

Duanmu pursed his lips and was silent, his eyes as black as ink.

"Fourth Duanmu girl," Mrs. Fu continued, "you better think it through." I'm talking to you, it's to give you face! ”

"Otherwise, whether you say yes or not, what can you do?!"

Mrs. Fu seems to be an understatement, the clouds are light and the wind is light, but in fact, there is still a trace of uncertainty in her heart.

The only person they have scruples about is Cen Yin, if Duanmu Fei bites to death today and doesn't agree, things will get bigger, and they will inevitably offend Cen Yin.

But if Duanmufei himself agreed, what could Cen Yin say!

"......" Duanmu Fei was still silent, and raised his eyes to look at the Lotus Shadow Pavilion at the end of the flower corridor.

The door of the Lotus Shadow Pavilion was still not opened, and some ladies also walked out of the theater and walked curiously in the direction of the Lotus Shadow Pavilion.

Mrs. Fu has been paying attention to Duanmufei's every move, and naturally she also noticed her gaze, and she was relieved: it seems that Duanmufei already knows.

Mrs. Fu looked at the Lotus Shadow Pavilion not far away, her eyes were dark, and her thoughts were surging.

More than a year ago, her daughter escaped from the meditation nunnery and came to the capital to join Zhong Yu.

After settling down, her daughter quietly handed her a letter.

Mrs. Fu didn't dare to tell Master Fu about this, for fear that he would ruthlessly send her daughter back to Jingxin Nunnery. In the past year or so, their mother and daughter have secretly met several times, and she will also secretly help her daughter, just hoping that her life can be better.

Some time ago, her daughter asked her to meet at a temple and knelt down and begged her, saying that she wanted to enter the palace.

At that time, Mrs. Fu was shocked.

She originally wanted Zhong Yu to adopt her daughter as an adopted daughter, let her daughter marry far away, marry a wealthy family, and it is always not a problem to have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

But her daughter said that she didn't want to hide and hide all her life, and she didn't want to be a disgraceful rat for the rest of her life.

This is the only opportunity for her to stand in front of the world above board.

She couldn't miss it, and she didn't want to miss it, so she begged Mrs. Fu to help her.

Thinking of what happened to her daughter over the years, Mrs. Fu was both distressed and pityful. Her daughter is a piece of flesh and blood that fell from her body, how could she not want her daughter to be well, so Mrs. Fu agreed.

Mrs. Fu listened to her daughter explain her plan carefully, she knew that today her daughter took advantage of the opportunity in the Qingping Department to pretend to be a singer from the Teaching Workshop Division to enter the princess's mansion, and she also knew that her daughter had quietly drugged Mu Yan, and now the two of them are in the Lotus Shadow Pavilion, and now the "good thing" has been done, and the raw rice has been cooked into cooked rice.

In fact, although even if Duanmufei disagrees, it can't change the facts, but as long as Duanmufei gives in, their plan will be smoother, lest An Ping and Mu Yan will back down for the sake of Cen Yin.

Elegantly stroked the hairpin on his sideburns, and continued to add firewood and cheered:

"Fourth Duanmu girl, you have to think about it as soon as possible, Sister Ling is still in the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion!"

"The bigger this matter is, the more people will watch the excitement, and Sister Ling's reputation will be completely ruined."

"Also, those lifters are still sitting outside the princess's mansion!"

"You also know that those scholars have always been enthusiastic, and if they come to death again, this matter will end even worse."

Duanmu Fei still didn't speak, his little face was expressionless, just looking at Mrs. Fu so quietly.

Mrs. Fu took a step closer to Duanmufei, and said in a cold tone: "Then, Sister Ling will have another life on her body." ”

Mrs. Fu's last sentence was said more slowly, almost word by word, and the threat was overflowing.

What she didn't know was that her words were not only heard by Duanmufei alone, but also clearly transmitted to the small flower hall on the other side of the lake through the "listening urn".

The windows on all four sides of the hall are wide open, transparent and bright, and when the breeze blows, it brings bursts of floral fragrance.

In the small flower hall, there were five or six men of different shapes.

Sitting by the window was an elegant man in his thirties, dressed in a bamboo-blue straight jacket, elegantly holding a teacup in his hand, and tasting tea by himself.

A faint aroma of tea filled the air with the rising heat.

The other four people were all young people in their twenties and thirties, with restrained expressions, looking at the gazebo on the other side of the lake for a while, and Wen Wuchen in a wheelchair for a while.

Wen Wuchen's lips pursed a shallow smile, elegant and calm, and it was most appropriate to describe him with the words "gentleman is like jade".

And the faces of those lifters are not very good-looking, and their faces are extremely complicated, with shock, embarrassment, shame, and self-blame......

They arrived at the gate of the princess's mansion in front of a pillar of incense, and they wanted to sue the royal court.

Not long after they meditated outside the mansion, someone led a few of them here and saw Wen Wuchen.

Wen Wuchen has always had prestige in Shilin, and when the lifters saw him, they were overjoyed, and they were about to tell Wen Wuchen about the injustice that happened in Jingzhao Mansion today, but Wen Wuchen stopped him.

"Everyone, don't be impatient, let's sit down and have a cup of tea."

"I know why you're here, and I'll give you an explanation."

Wen Wuchen asked people to serve high-grade Longjing tea, but they didn't drink a sip of these moves.

As soon as the tea was served, they saw the "good show" just now, and they all heard the words of Mrs. Fu and Duanmu Fei clearly, and every word and sentence was like a slap in the face.

How indignant they were when they came, how ashamed they were in this moment.

They professed justice, and they boasted that they wanted to seek justice for the dead who died in vain, but they blindly became a knife in the hands of others, to harm an innocent girl, and almost convicted an innocent girl of murder.

Even, they were still questioning whether the future queen of the kingdom was a demon.

The more I thought about these moves, the more ashamed I felt.

They came to the capital to participate in Enke, and they wanted to be named on the gold list, first, to glorify their ancestors, and secondly, they could also do some practical things for the people, but they were so ignorant that even if they were admitted to the Jinshi, could they really be a good parental official? !

At this time, Mrs. Fu's voice came out of the "listening urn":

"Fourth girl Duanmu, have you thought about it?"

One sentence made the hearts of the lifters instantly rise to their throats.
