Chapter 154: Exchange 2

"The Taoist priest has checked it, and Mrs. Zhang is exactly the face of death."

The emperor ordered someone to throw the rabbit down, and then said slowly: "Where is that Taoist priest now?" ”

The stone in Mingyuexi's heart finally fell to the ground, and slowly spit out four words from his mouth. "The Marquis of Xiaoyao's Mansion." ”

"You go back first, these things, Rong Zhen will think about it."

Mingyuexi sighed that Gu Yanbai was really like a god, and he thought early in the morning that the emperor would not release it so quickly.

Although she had already made psychological expectations, she was still a little anxious when she saw that the emperor did not order Gu Yanbai's captivity.

After bidding farewell to the emperor with Lu Min'er, she returned to the Hou Mansion.

As soon as he stepped into the room with his front foot, the eunuch in the palace came over and said that the emperor had lifted Gu Yanbai's ban and restored his authority to continue to investigate corruption.

Mingyuexi almost fell with joy, he hurriedly ran to Gu Yanbai's room, opened the door and rushed in, never thinking that he would collide with him head-on.

Suddenly, Mingyuexi rubbed her forehead, which was a little painful, and punched Gu Yanbai heavily: "What are you doing at the door, it hurts." ”

Gu Yanbai gently rubbed Mingyuexi's sore forehead, smiled and attached it to her ear: "You are so anxious to see me." ”

Mingyuexi blushed when she heard this, and she didn't care about the drizzle outside the house, and took a few steps back from the corridor: "You... What nonsense, I'm just afraid that you'll suffocate inside. ”

Gu Yanbai smiled, her insincere appearance was really cute.

He glanced up at the cloudy sky, and then dragged Mingyue Creek towards him.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're so stupid that you don't even know that the rain is falling on you."

Unexpectedly, they only spoke two or three words when they met, and then they scolded each other again.

Seeing him with such a poisonous tongue, Mingyuexi turned her head and wanted to leave, but Gu Yanbai turned sideways, hugged her into her arms, and hugged her tightly.

The rain outside the house was getting heavier and heavier, and the falling thin lines collided with the ground to create a beautiful splash of water, interweaving a pleasant music.

"Thank you."

Mingyuexi buried her head in his shoulder, greedy for a short and good time.

Maybe there won't be any more days like this, right?

After she became conscious, she quickly broke free from Gu Yanbai's embrace, turned around and rushed into the rain.

At dinner time, she changed out of her half-wet clothes and took a hot bath, before slowly walking to the dining table and sitting down.

She raised her eyes to look at Gu Yanbai, Gu Yanbai looked light, as if nothing had happened in the afternoon.

"By the way, have you found out the cause of Mrs. Zhang's death?" Gu Yanbai scooped a bowl of soup and put it in front of her, thinking of the difficulty in this, her eyes became softer when she looked at Mingyuexi.

Mingyuexi nodded and told him the whole story.

Gu Yanbai rubbed his chin in contemplation.

"I've found out who is behind it." Mingyuexi put down the spoon and smacked her lips and said.

"Who?" Gu Yanbai's expression was slightly gloomy.

"Liu Shangshu's attendant, Xiao Dezi."

Mingyuexi entrusted Chengyu, sneaked back to Qian Sanchang's house to find the deposit, and found that the gold ingot was engraved under a small Liu character that would not be visible at all if you didn't observe it carefully.

Through some investigation, she learned that the only money in circulation in ordinary prominent families is official silver, but this gold ingot is really a rare thing, and the surname is engraved underneath, so it must be a powerful person who has this ambition.

The person surnamed Liu in the whole world, and the person with high power, I am afraid that the only one is Liu Shangshu.

When she learned of this, she made an appointment with the person who traded when Qian Sanchang made an appointment, so she carefully laid out a game, and when the two were trading, the little Dezi and his accomplices were wiped out.

"He originally wanted to kill people." Mingyuexi glanced at Gu Yanbai.

Fortunately, they found Qian Sanbian in time, otherwise there would really be no way to clear Gu Yanbai's grievances.

Gu Yanbai listened thoughtfully, "It's really him." ”

"Then our next step is to identify Liu Shangshu?" Mingyuexi couldn't wait to ask.

She didn't understand this court, but after experiencing this, she felt more and more unpredictable, and it was very rare to have three or two intimate friends.

Gu Yanbai's murder also reminded her that if she wants to survive in this dynasty, she must have mental strength and means.

"There's no hurry." Now that he has been released, the thieves must also know about it, they will not easily show their feet, not to mention that characters like Liu Shangshu are not able to rise from the ground all at once.

"Then we have to get rid of your injustice first." Mingyuexi said with some atmosphere.

When Gu Yanbai was wronged, I don't know how many people ridiculed him.

Although she doesn't understand politics, she can always hear some rumors.

"Okay, let's deal with that little virtue first."

Mingyuexi beckoned, and Cheng Yu walked over and held Xiao Dezi.

Mingyuexi let people arrest Xiao Dezi early in the morning, but in order not to arouse Liu Shangshu's doubts, she intimidated Xiao Dezi, fed him medicine, and asked him to return to Shangshu Mansion as if the matter had been done, and report to Liu Shangshu truthfully.

In order not to go wrong, she also specially begged Zhu Bajie to follow him to see if this little Dezi was telling the truth.

"Say what you said to me before, to the little marquis."

"Back... Back to the little marquis, the little slave lost weight and stayed on to instruct, and bought medicine with the money, poisoning Mrs. Zhang in prison. ”

Xiao Dezi looked submissive, and Mingyuexi took out a piece of paper from his cuff, which was drawn by Xiao Dezi himself.

"Tomorrow, we will take him to Dali Temple and return your innocence."

In the evening, Gu Yanbai rode quickly to the palace.

"Your Majesty, the minister is here."

"Hmm." The emperor turned around and glanced at Gu Yanbai, who had not been seen for many days.

Just when Mingyuexi thought that this matter was over, Liu Shangshu had already thought of a good countermeasure.

On the second day, Gu Yanbai and Mingyuexi came to Dali Temple to beat the drum.

Seeing that Gu Yanbai had been lifted, the overseer immediately stepped forward respectfully and invited him into the hall.

Mingyuexi followed behind him, and Cheng Yu pressed Xiao Dezi to follow her.

"I'm here today to get the Overseer to clear my name." Gu Yan Baiyun said lightly, but each word weighed as much as a thousand catties, and he was a little suppressed from the momentum.

"If the little marquis has any grievances, he should tell me and listen, and this official should enforce the law impartially."

Gu Yanbai smiled disdainfully, then sat down in the hall, beckoned, and Cheng Yu brought Xiao Dezi up.

"Please reopen the trial of Mrs. Zhang's case."

As soon as these words came out, the superintendent broke out in a cold sweat.

This Taifu's case was already confusing, and this little marquis came over today to find out, and he had no way to solve the case!

"This..."

Gu Yanbai stretched out his hand and pointed at Xiao Dezi.

"The man kneeling in the hall is the murderer who framed me."
