At this moment, in the palace, there is a black shadow who is about to climb over the wall and go out of the palace to seek help from Ji Keqing, looking at the huge palace wall, throwing the rope he had prepared before, throwing it several times and finally succeeding.

When he was about to climb out, he was discovered by the guards before he had climbed two steps.

"Who?"

Seeing that something was wrong, Princess Ling was frightened, "It's me, it's me." ”

The guards saw that it was Princess Ling and hurriedly saluted, "See Princess." ”

"Since you know it's me, why don't you leave quickly." Princess Ling spoke with some weakness.

I saw the guards, you look at me, I look at you, a guard whispered in the ear of the leader, "My lord, the princess is about to get married in the near future, and I am afraid that this situation is to escape the marriage, if the palace loses the princess, none of us can afford it." ”

When he heard this, the leader said flatteringly, "Princess, please come with us to the emperor's place." ”

"If you dare, get out."

Princess Ling looked at the person in front of her angrily, and was very nervous.

"Offended the princess."

Xiao Jin listened to the guard's report angrily, smashed the cup angrily, and looked at Ling'er in annoyance.

"Let's go down!"

"Look at the good things you have done, you still want to run away from marriage, Ling'er seems that your life is really good."

Princess Ling gritted her teeth, her face unconvinced, "If it weren't for the royal brother insisting that I marry Wang Fanping, how could I want to climb the wall?" ”

"Why is it my fault?" Xiao Jin looked at the unrepentant Ling'er with resentment, and the anger in his heart burned brightly.

"Hmph." Princess Ling stomped her feet and tilted her head, just not admitting her mistake.

"Come, put the princess under house arrest in her own dormitory, and don't leave the palace without my orders."

Xiao Jin spoke mercilessly.

Princess Ling was stunned for a moment, "Brother Huang, you are going to put me under house arrest." ”

Xiao Jin sneered, and immediately invited Princess Ling back to the palace.

After Princess Ling left, Xiao Jin touched her forehead with a headache, why was she so uneasy?

……

Sure enough, Lian Yan met the killer in prison, and saw that the killer only threatened Li Si and left, so he didn't show up.

Following the killer all the way, checking his whereabouts, he came to an inn, where Lian Yan hid outside the door and eavesdropped on the conversation in the room.

"How's it going?"

"No problem, tomorrow as long as Li Si pleads guilty in the first trial, and once he is sentenced, he will kill his mother immediately."

"You're doing a good job."

Lian Yan poked through the window to see the appearance of the people inside, and was a little shocked after seeing it, and when the killer came out, he took the opportunity to attack the killer*, knocked him unconscious, and tied him back to the county office.

While the other man followed a carriage away.

returned to the county office, and Lian Yan immediately went to find Ji Ketian.

Opening the door, Ji Ketian anxiously asked how was the situation of Lian Yan?

Then Lian Yan told Ji Ketian about the situation in the cell, "Ke Lean, you would never think of who the person who connected with the killer was?" ”

Ji Ke looked at Lian Yan suspiciously.

"The old lady next to her."

"What did you say?" Ji Ketian's eyes widened, not believing what he was hearing.

"Do you see clearly? Lian Yan is really the grandmother next to the Queen Mother. ”

Lian Yan nodded.

"How so? Why did you get involved with the Queen Mother again? ”

Ji Ketian frowned.

"It's tilting, this matter involves the Queen Mother, no matter what, Xiao Jin will definitely defend his mother."

"Lian Yan, I want to return to the palace as soon as possible."

"Okay, what are you going to do with this case?"

"Give the killer to Lord Gao, and then send someone to send Li Si and his mother out of the capital to help them find a place to stay."

"Okay, I'll take care of that."

……

After Ji Ketian explained the matter to Lord Gao, he went back to the inn with Lian Yan to pack up his things and go back to the palace.

Lian Yan packed up her things and went downstairs to buy her favorite osmanthus cake for Ji Ke.

"I heard that the princess is going to marry the son of the Wang family."

"Really? It's a happy thing. ”

"Isn't it?"

After Lian Yan paid the money to the eldest mother, she hurried back to the inn and told Ji Ketian about it.

"What, wasn't I delaying it before? Why is it so sudden, no, I want to go back to Beijing to help Ling'er. ”

Ji Ketian can't wait to return to the capital, afraid that if he doesn't go back, the matter will not be solved.

Who knew that Lian Yan stopped Ji Ketian, "Don't worry, the carriage hasn't been hired yet?" Don't rush just yet. ”

"Lianyan, didn't you say that the carriage would arrive after lunch? When the time comes, we'll set off immediately. ”

Lian Yan nodded and said yes, but he had another plan in his heart.

After lunch, I asked why the carriage hadn't arrived yet?

Lian Yan said with some distress, "The coachman said that the axle was broken, and there was no way to return to Beijing for the time being. ”

"What about the other carriages?"

"We'll have to wait until tomorrow to change to another vehicle."

"Well, that's all there is to it."

Disappointed, he returned to his room.

The next day, Ji Ketian had breakfast with Lian Yan, and mentioned the matter of returning to the palace.

"Ke Tilt, I went to ask the coachman just now, the carriage is not good yet, today is the day of the execution, why don't you go and take a look?"

"Isn't the carriage all right?"

Hearing that the carriage was not yet good, he couldn't help but be more anxious, and he was a little worried about the situation in the palace.

Returning to the palace is not only to deal with Ling'er's affairs, but also to find the murderer as soon as possible.

"But tilt, this matter can't be rushed, when we leave the palace, we only have this carriage, and there is nothing superfluous."

Lian Yan tried to calm Ke Ting's mood.

"Why don't you let Master Gao help us get one, there should always be a good carriage in the yamen!"

"Tilt, that's not good." Lotus Death shirked.

Ji Ke thought about it, and decided to wait until the carriage was repaired.

Seeing that he had been confused, Lian Yan breathed a sigh of relief silently in his heart, thinking that the sky had crossed the sea.

As everyone knows, Ji Ketian began to doubt Lian Yan's intentions in his heart, and felt that Lian Yan was deliberately delaying the time to return to Beijing.

The night passed quickly, "Let's leave for the palace after we finish eating!" ”

Ji Ketian put down the chopsticks in his hand and said solemnly to Lian Yan.

"The carriage is not ready?" Ji Ketian said the words of the lotus and pursed his lips disdainfully, "The carriage is ready, waiting outside the door." ”

Lian Yan looked at Ji Ke with some embarrassment.

"I still have something to deal with, shall we wait another day?"

"Lian Yan, why don't you let me go back to the palace, from the moment you learned about Ling'er's marriage, you were delaying the time to return to the palace."

Ji Ketian looked at Lotus Death a little angrily, and couldn't understand Lotus Death's approach.

Seeing that the matter had been seen through by Ji Ke Tan, Lian Yan put down the dishes and chopsticks, without a trace of embarrassment of being exposed, and said confidently, "I just don't want you to go back to the palace so soon, Ke Tan, we won't be too late for a few days." ”

"Why?"
