250: As a last resort

As a last resort, he had no ability to rebel, so he could only ask Princess Yu to return to the city. Move with affection, and persuade the emperor with reason. I hope the emperor still remembers what happened under Yue'an City, and I hope he still remembers the death of Wei Shangqing's wife.

The emperor used Wei Shangqing to suppress the various departments of Feirong, used him to guard the departure of the city, and used him to balance himself. Princess Yu can also take advantage of what happened in Yue'an City and use the death of Wei Shangqing's wife to persuade the emperor.

If you can't keep the prince, at least you have to keep the Ming family.

I didn't expect that the assassination of King Ping would make such a big move, the jade pendant in Sima Shangshu's hand was an object that the prince wore by his side every day, and it was impossible to give it to the assassin easily, unless there were spies in the prince's mansion.

……

Zhong Liyun left the Pingwang Mansion and came to the Mingyue Tower, sitting on the mahogany railing on the second floor. Youling has woken up and bought new things for him and a new maid and slave.

He still has important things to do, and since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been imprisoned, it is better to send him directly to the prison of the Criminal Department in one go. Zhong Liyun sat quietly on the mahogany railing, sitting in Yu Ziyu's favorite place, thinking that he could meet Yu Ziyu today, but it seemed that it was impossible today.

Zhongli Yunxiao sat for a moment, and the shopkeeper walked up to him and led him into the private room.

Zhong Liyun opened the door and really saw Lihe's figure. He was wearing a gray-black robe, his wrinkled hands caressing the gray beard on his chin, and he heard the movement and raised his eyes to look at Zhong Liyun. His pursed lips made him look a little serious, and he had always been a man who did not smile.

"The Third Prince, please take a seat." Lihe opened his mouth and made a gesture of please.

"This king prefers to be called the king by others." Zhong Liyun glanced at him and walked to the side and sat down.

Li He's eyes darkened, and he corrected: "Lord Wang." ”

"What?" Zhong Liyun heard him say this, so he didn't bother with him about the title.

"The prince has been frightened lately, right? Eat more good pressure shock, this is the broken intestine wine that his subordinates have treasured for many years, do you want to taste it? Lihe sat down to the left and picked up the wine jar.

"Heartbreaker?"

"Uh...... This wine is very strong, so strong that it makes people break their intestines, so it is named broken intestine wine, which is most suitable for pouring sorrow. Lihe explained.

He used wine to drown his sorrows, for since his son was gone, he used to drink them often. If it weren't for Zhong Liyun pulling the banquet to join the Zhizhen Gate, Mingyue Tower would not have been involved in this pile of. Although he has some relationship with the Ming family, he has never been cared for by the Ming family. To be able to have a foothold in the city, it all depends on your own craftsmanship.

"I see." Zhong Liyun always felt that Lihe was a little strange, and as for what was strange, he couldn't say.

"Now that the crown prince has been controlled by the emperor, what should we do next?" Lihe poured him a full drink and observed his face.

"Where's that jailer, Wang Qi?" Zhong Liyun remembered the jailer who was kicked out of the prison by Sima Shangshu.

"He's well watched by my people, just waiting for that day to come." Li He hooked his lips and smiled: "After all, he is the one who really beat Bai Yang, and he is the one who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bribed." ”

"We have to find a way to let the left minister know about his existence." Zhong Liyun played with the cup in his palm and said earnestly.

"Why the left phase?" Lihe is puzzled.

"Didn't Deputy Master Qiao pass the news to you?" Zhong Liyun glanced at him impatiently: "Now that the left minister is in charge of this case, although the left and right ministers are nothing on the surface, they are secretly competing, not to mention that the eldest brother has tried to harm Li Xishuang repeatedly, can the left minister not know?" The eldest brother is the same as the right, this time let the left minister seize the opportunity, how could he let them go easily? ”

"What does the prince mean is that as long as Zuo Xiang gets the chips in our hands, he will definitely get rid of the thorn in the side of the prince for us?" Li He leaned closer to Zhong Liyun: "But how can the prince be wasted?" How can the words of a jailer who has been driven out be evidence, this amount of bargaining chips is not enough to bring down the prince! ”

"It doesn't matter." Zhong Liyun stared at the window of the private room tightly, as if he could look into the distance through the small window: "Didn't Zuo Xiang send someone to Weiyang City to assist Lord Chen?" Isn't the corpse of those guards also one of the evidence, not to mention ......"

Zhong Liyun laughed, not to mention that Zhao Linhuai had already fled back to Weiyang City? If he refuses to bring that evidence to the court, then his family will accompany him to the funeral!

"What's more?"

Zhong Liyun came back to his senses and put away the smile on the corner of his mouth: "What's more, didn't Zuo Xiang send someone to Weiyang City?" The evidence is on the way, it just takes time. If it weren't for the eldest brother who was in a hurry to take the king's life, he wouldn't be trapped in the prince's mansion and couldn't do anything now. ”

"If you want to blame him, blame him for not being able to hold his breath."

"Give that jailer to Lord Zuo Xiang, and give the eldest brother some appetizers, and we'll take our time...... Wear down the patience of the father. When the time comes to serve the main course, you can win the eldest brother as the prince in one fell swoop! ”

"The prince is really wise."

"I don't need your flattery."

"And that Zhu Feng......" Lihe learned that he died of illness not long ago: "He is not the person who His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bribed, but the time of his death is too coincidental." ”

"It's no coincidence that he died of poisoning."

"He died of poisoning, but no one investigated his case, but he heard from his neighbors that he suddenly fell ill and died only ten days before and after his illness."

"Do you know about the Decameron?"

"Ten days?" Lihe was a little distressed, he really hadn't heard of any Ten Days San.

"He's just Wang Qi's substitute ghost, after Bai Yang's death, someone must have wanted to secretly find clues from the jailer, in order to keep Wang Qi's bargaining chip, he had to let him die instead of Wang Qi." The Ten Days Scatter was given by Ming Yingzhi, and Zhong Liyun didn't know what she wanted to do. Decameron is a good thing, and to poison a jailer is simply overkill.

……

On the prince's mansion, Ming Yingzhi sat quietly in his courtyard. She finally waited for this day, and finally waited for the day when Zhongli Ling couldn't be arrogant.

Thinking back carefully, he thought that he had poisoned so many maids that Zhongli Ling had been spoiled and had been spared before. She had no intention of Zhongli Ling, so naturally she didn't care what he did with other women, she did it just to let everyone in the whole house know that she was using poison without permission. I tried my best to use the ten days on Zhu Feng, but I just wanted to leave a clue to make people suspect that he would go to the Prince's Mansion. It's just a pity that this is so far away from the city, and no one can see that Zhu Fengzhong has been scattered for ten days. It's only to blame that she overestimated the courage of the people in the prince's mansion, and didn't dare to spread the news that she was good at using drugs.

The things I did before were in vain. If it weren't for Zhong Liyun, I don't know when I would be able to get rid of Zhong Liling and the Ming family, and I wouldn't mention those difficult memories in the past. She believes that Qing Zijin will definitely come to save her, if there is one more delusional person who is good at using poison, will the Delusion Gate become stronger?

Qing Zijin can govern the Delusion Gate so well, she must be a person who cherishes talents. Ming Yingzhi boasted that his ability was enough to impress Qing Zijin, so he took the initiative to give her the Death Pill that day.

Otherwise...... Why did she go out of her way to save a death row inmate?

She Ming Yingzhi has lived in dire straits since she was a child, and she has long generated that calm face, how careful and delicate her mind is, it makes people think about it carefully. If it weren't for fate, she would not be inferior to Qingzijin. Those who have the ability should get together, and she waits for Qingzijin to fulfill her promise.

If she misses Qingzijin's character, she also thinks she is unlucky.

Pingwangfu.

The corpses in the mansion were cleaned up by the people of the government, and the whole mansion was left with only her and Zhong Liyun. At this time, she didn't bother to clean the blood stains on the slate, she had to find a way to find something crucial.

Zhong Liyun used to be very wary of her, just because she was a fool and never mentioned many things to her. But Li Jing is Li Tangsheng's son, she knows about it. The Weiyang Salt and Iron Case is the ghost that Zhong Liyun is making behind his back, in order to strengthen that, he wants to be on a par with the Zhizhen Gate of Delusion.

Salt and iron are sold, and silver taels are privately received, and after so many years, there must be a lot of quantity. It's just that they used to be cautious and only dared to be greedy for a small amount of salt and iron. Somehow, this time he suddenly became so greedy and made such a big move, so Bai Yang had an accident. If Qiao Ran hadn't reached out to him to ask for silver, he wouldn't have taken the risk, it seems that this Qiao Ran is a little strange!

No one has found Li Tangsheng's ledger, and now that he is dead, there is no clue to the ledger. Can...... Such an account book, Zhong Liyun should also have one in his hand, as long as he finds the account book in Zhong Liyun's hand, he is still worried that he will not be able to catch his handle, but You Ling doesn't know why the door master wants to do this?

I don't know why the master of the door wants to participate in the internal struggle in the court, isn't this a contradiction to the rules set by the young master?

Youling, who dragged an injured body, searched around, but failed to find any clues. That's it, let's deceive Zhong Liyun's trust first, and then make the next step.

Thinking like this, she dragged her injury to busy the affairs of the Ping Palace, and what she had to do now was to let Zhong Liyun see how she saddled up and down.

Zhong Liyun left Mingyue Tower and returned to the Ping Palace, where there were already new maids and minions, and Youling was asking them to clean up the blood stains on the stone slabs and clean the entire palace.

She stood in the crowd with a pale face, some blood oozing from the wound on her face. The wounds on her body must have been cracked open, otherwise how could she have stained her white clothes red? Zhong Liyun lowered his head guiltily, his eyebrows were full of pity, how could he be so bad that the woman who sacrificed her life to save her last night was busy and tired?

Zhong Liyun walked behind Youling and hugged her waist.

"Hiss~ it hurts." The wound on her body was suddenly touched, and Youling snorted softly.

"Hurt you?"

"It's fine." Turning his head to see that it was Zhong Liyun, a smile instantly appeared on his face.

"It's okay." Zhong Liyun pulled her into the house, took out the gold sore medicine from the cabinet, and said with a smile while applying the medicine: "You Ling, don't blame this king for not finding you a doctor, this king doesn't want other men to look at his own women, understand?" ”
