Chapter 57

Yun Shichang did not discuss this matter with Lin Yinshuang, and as soon as the words fell, she and Yun Xiaowan looked at Yun Shichang together.

Both of them were shocked, as if they had just had auditory hallucinations.

"Dad, to whom did you marry your daughter?" Yun Xiaowan saw that Yun Shichang was silent and didn't answer, and then she couldn't wait to ask again.

"The eldest young master of Zongzheng Mansion, Shangguan Yu." Yun Shichang replied. Lord Shangguan of Zongzheng Mansion used to be a protégé of Yun Shichang, and the two had a very good personal relationship.

Yun Xiaowan and Mu Nan had an accident less than a year after they got married, and the current situation is already very embarrassing. I didn't expect to hear about it after hearing about it this morning, only to know that Yun Xiaowan didn't return last night, and actually went to the Five Emperors' Mansion.

In order to avoid extraneous complications, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, who was afraid of Yun Xiaowan's harm, would be involved in the royal family competition, Yun Shichang could only be busy marrying Yun Xiaowan out of the house, so as to ask for a clean face. Zongzheng Mansion knows the roots, and Yun Xiaowan is now very suitable for Shangguan Yu to marry.

After hearing this, Yun Xiaowan frowned tightly and refused repeatedly. "Dad, Zong Zhengmai is a six-rank petty official, how can you be willing to marry your daughter to Zongzheng Mansion?"

As far as Yun Xiaowan is concerned, Shangguan Yu is not worthy of her regardless of his status and status. If he really got married to Shangguan Yu, wouldn't he be able to stay in that palm-sized mansion in the future, and he would not be as noble as the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"How do you talk about that!" Yun Shichang reprimanded in a low voice. "You lost your husband before you got married for a year, and now Lord Shangguan looks down on you, but he doesn't care."

"Master, it's not right for you to say that." Lin Yinshuang watched from the sidelines and was also very anxious. She originally wanted to borrow her daughter to climb the high branches, but she never thought that Yun Xiaowan would be even more miserable than before. "In any case, Wan'er is also the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now that she has passed away, Wan'er can be regarded as the foot of the Prime Minister's Mansion, if she marries, won't it be a joke for outsiders to see our Prime Minister's Mansion in vain."

"You're embarrassed to say it." Yun Shichang glanced at Lin Yinshuang angrily, and then sat on the chair. "Do you know that after the court this morning, I listened to those ministers chatting and saying that she was in harmony with the five princes, and my old face was lost by her."

Yun Shichang was angry when he said this, so he simply tilted his head to the side and didn't look at Yun Xiaowan.

Yun Xiaowan frowned tightly after hearing this. This matter is clearly separated from her and Jun, and no third person knows about it. How did it reach the ears of the ministers overnight.

Could it be that Zhang Lanxin is too talkative? Yun Xiaowan thought of being in the Imperial Garden yesterday, and Zhang Lanxin saw her and Jun Zhiyao together.

"Anyway, it's settled. A few days later, Zongzheng Mansion came to the door to propose. Yun Shichang was resolute and did not give anyone the power to fight back.

Yun Shichang's words pulled Yun Xiaowan's thoughts back. She looked reluctant and refused to say anything.

"Daddy! You can make your own decisions about your daughter's marriage! "If she marries Shangguan Yu, her life will be really ruined. Yun Xiaowan was extremely angry, seeing that Jun Zhiyao had already taken the bait, Yun Xiaowan was unwilling to watch the duck in her hand fly.

"Yes, master, Wan'er has only been back for a few days, and you are in a hurry to marry her again. It's not a joke to let outsiders see it. Lin Yinshuang hurriedly agreed.

"It's the two of you who are in charge, so the Prime Minister's Mansion was almost punished!" The more Yun Shichang spoke, the more angry he became, and he simply pulled Lin Yinshuang to reprimand him together.

No matter how the two pleaded, Yun Shichang was iron-hearted, and he put Yun Xiaowan under house arrest in the backyard in a fit of anger, just waiting for Zongzheng Mansion to come to the door to propose marriage.

Although Zongzheng's grade is not high, Shangguan Yu is young and talented, and he can be regarded as one of the young talents in the capital. Yun Shichang thought about it, Yun Xiaowan is a willful and domineering character, and he is afraid that it will be Shangguan Yu who will suffer if he marries.

When Yun Xiaowan was taken back to the backyard, Yun Shichang also went to the study. The two doormen had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Yun Shichang coming in, they both stood up and saluted.

"The three princes and the five princes are the most powerful at the moment, and it is extremely difficult to judge who wins or loses between the two."

"The matter of the General's Mansion punishing the Nine Clans, the third prince has done the Prime Minister's Mansion a great favor, this move is probably a hint to you, I am afraid you will have to be more cautious when speaking in the court in the future."

The doormen chattered and discussed the current situation of power in the government and the opposition.

Yun Shichang, as an official of the first-class imperial court, has been assisting the emperor for nearly fifteen years, and the power accumulated behind him must not be underestimated. If Jun Ruyu and Jun Zhiyao have the intention to win or lose, both of them must want to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This made Yun Shichang embarrassed, and if he didn't do it, it would be a big deal that was slaughtered.

Jun Ruyu single-handedly investigated the poisoning case of Shen Mangxia, and when he returned to the Three Emperors' Mansion, he took Yun Xiaoxiao to the Shilang Mansion.

There is a white curtain hanging in front of the squire's mansion, and the guard's arms are also tied with white ropes, and the atmosphere is dull at a glance.

Seeing Jun Ruyu coming, the guards hurriedly reported. No matter how much the squire doesn't want to see Yun Xiaoxiao, he also has to remember Jun Ruyu's status as a prince. When the two entered the mansion of the squire, they saw the maids wearing white flowers on their heads, crying and crying.

Yun Xiaoxiao felt uncomfortable, and looked up at Jun Ruyu. Jun Ruyu's expression was cold, and he walked straight to the hall.

"The three princes are coming, and the ministers have missed the welcome, so please forgive the three princes." The squire and his wife stood up, and after saluting Jun Ruyu, the two of them glared at Yun Xiaoxiao together. Especially Mrs. Shilang, looking at her gaze, she couldn't wait to swallow Yun Xiaoxiao alive.

"The emperor has handed over the case of Miss Shen's poisoning to me to deal with, and I came here today to learn about the situation." Thinking that the two had just lost their beloved daughter, Jun Ruyu's tone was slightly gentle.

"What's the situation? Maybe it's not already been found out, it's Mangxia who she killed? Madame retorted angrily, pointing her finger straight at Yun Xiaoxiao.

"I didn't hurt Manxia." Yun Xiaoxiao's expression was serious, and she looked at Mrs. Shilang with a sincere face.

"Phew!" Mrs. Shilang didn't appreciate it at all, "Mang Xia has always been simple-minded, and has never had a bad relationship with others, if you have to say that you are closer to anyone, it is the eldest lady of the former Prime Minister's family." The people in the palace at the banquet have already experienced, except for Lord Li's wine pot, everyone's wine has not been poisoned, and only you will be seen after the banquet. But tell me that you didn't hurt it, but who else could do it? ”

What Mrs. Shilang said was reasonable, Yun Xiao opened her mouth, not knowing how to refute.

"Also, you little maidservant, why did you stop Mangxia?" Mrs. Squire asked again. Her current identity is just a maid beside Jun Ruyu, and after thinking about it carefully, she really can't find a reason to suddenly get close to Shen Mangxia.

"Say less." Madame was speechless. The squire reminded in a whisper.

"Let's not talk about what purpose she has to kill Miss Shen to vent her anger, Madam also said, she is just a servant girl, first, there is nowhere to find poison, and secondly, she has always been inseparable from me, maybe my handmaid is abnormal or not, I won't be able to see it?" Jun Ruyu opened his mouth to speak for Yun Xiaoxiao.

Yun Xiao was stunned and looked at Jun Ruyu. His face is delicate, and his facial features are like carvings. Although his expression was still cold, Yun Xiaoxiao felt very warm.

Jun Ruyu said that the waiter and the waiter were both choked. If the two admit it, wouldn't they be saying that Jun Ruyu has no way to teach, and even a servant girl can't take good care of it.

But having said that, all indications indicate that the murderer of Shen Mangxia is most likely Yun Xiaoxiao.

"Mrs. Weichen loves her daughter very much, and now her daughter has just died of grievances, she is a little emotional, and I ask the third prince to forgive me." The squire bowed slightly and apologized to Jun Ruyu.

Jun Ruyu knew that the waiter was embarrassed, and he didn't say much. "I wonder if Lord Shen can let me perform an autopsy to see what kind of poison is in Ling Nu?"

Today, he and Yun Xiaoxiao came here for this matter, as long as they know the poison that Shen Mangxia was poisoned and when it was poisoned, the case will be solved.

"No way!" Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shilang reacted violently, and stretched out her hands to stop in front of Jun Ruyu and Yun Xiaoxiao. "My daughter has died, and the body is still being tormented like this. No, I don't allow it. ”

Madame Squire's eyes were red, and tears ran down her cheeks.

"Then forget it."

The waiter was about to reprimand his wife, but Yun Xiaoxiao saw it and hurriedly interrupted. The squire breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside helplessly. Mrs. Shilang had a firm expression, and her eyes looked at Yun Xiaoxiao very repulsively.

Both of them looked extremely haggard, and it hurt to see Yun Xiaoxin.

"Let's go." Yun Xiaoxiao tugged at Jun Ruyu's sleeve and whispered to him. Shen Mangxia is the only daughter of the two, and seeing that her daughter, who was lively and cheerful two days ago, can only lie cold, Yun Xiaoxiao can't feel how uncomfortable the waiter and his wife are.

Jun Ruyu exchanged a few words with the waiter, and then left the waiter's mansion. The two talked all the way, and Jun Ruyu asked why Fang Cai didn't insist on testing.

"If you do, you can prove your innocence earlier." Jun Ruyu turned his head and looked at Yun Xiaoxiao with some doubts.

"Lord Shen and Mrs. Shen are already so sad, wouldn't it make them even more sad if you and I opened the coffin. There's always another way, just check it slowly. The corners of Yun Xiaoxiao's mouth rose slightly, and her face was kind, but she could see it at this time.

"It's not easy." Jun Ruyu frowned slightly. He had already guessed the mastermind in his heart, but the forces behind it were too big, and Jun Ruyu was already secretly planning to find a suitable scapegoat to top.

It's not a smart move to go head-to-head with anyone right now.

"I'm afraid that the poisonous wine of Lord Li at the banquet is just a cover. Originally, when you asked me to speculate, I thought that the purpose of making such a fuss was to let the five princes compete for favor in front of the emperor. Now it seems that there is more to it than that. Yun Xiaoxiao's tone was rare to be so serious.

"Tell me about it." Jun Ruyu came to the interest. He felt more and more that Yun Xiaoxiao was smart and clever, and he was a material that could be made.

"Third prince, have you ever thought that maybe Lord Li's wine is poisonous, just to induce the emperor to test the poison on the spot, so as to prove the innocence of the people present. In order to set up a blame and make me speechless. Yun Xiaoxiao happened to turn sideways, facing Jun Ruyu's eyes.

"But I don't understand something." A puzzle flashed in Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes. She pondered about this matter for a long time, but she still couldn't figure it out.

Jun Ruyu pursed her lips tightly and waited for Yun Xiaoxiao to continue.

"If my guess is correct, how can the Fifth Prince be sure that Miss Shen will meet me and that I will stop her from talking?"

Jun Zhiyao wanted to frame the Three Emperors' Mansion, so he used Yun Xiaoxiao's hand to play the problem and make things bigger. There is a good reason for that. But just like what she asked Jun Ruyu, if Jun Ruyu stopped Shen Mangxia, it would be difficult for this matter to reach the sky.

Jun Ruyu thought for a moment, and suddenly a bad thought came to mind.

"I know why!"
