It's better to coax Xiao Chen'er and comfort Xiao Xu'er, Lin Xia looked at Lei Biao worriedly and said, "Husband, this Praetorian Guard came to search the mansion, it's nothing, right?" ”

Lei Biao shook his head slightly, "I don't know for the time being, I will send someone to investigate." ”

Lin Xia sighed deeply, not knowing what was going on in this palace, and he was so aggressive.

The next day, in the capital, the streets and alleys were full of news that the Praetorian Guards knocked on the door and searched the mansion last night, speculating about what was going on in the palace; I heard that the princely mansion was also searched, and for a while, the entire capital was panicked.

On the third day, Lei Biao had not yet found out why the palace would send the Praetorian Guards to search the whole capital, and the lady of Zhenguo from the Zhenguo Mansion had already entered the palace for the first time, wanting to know what was happening in the palace.

Before I could find out clearly, the first green building in the capital, Huancai Pavilion, found a woman's body.

Found in an abandoned dry well in the backyard, usually the wellhead is completely covered by the stone slab, but there is a dozen cleaning people passing by, smelling a foul smell, following the smell to find, found that the wellhead is exposed, not completely covered by the stone slab, curiously removed the stone slab to look into the well, the stench that came to the face, took a closer look, found that there was someone at the bottom of the well, immediately screamed, fell to the ground, and then rolled and climbed and shouted that the dead man.

The old bustard learned that there were two women's corpses in the abandoned well in the backyard, and thought that it was a disobedient person who ran to jump into the well to commit suicide, but after counting the number of people, there were many of them, and he was thinking that more things were better than less, but the Praetorian Guards came to search, and the woman in the dry well reappeared.

It's just that this fishing is terrible.

The body is none other than Princess Jingning, who disappeared a few days ago.

And Princess Jingning's death is extremely ugly, not to mention her tattered clothes, her hair is messy, her white and tender skin has already appeared mottled corpse spots, the pupils of her eyes have long been cloudy, and her two eyes are still staring at her, as if she is dead, and there are layers of coolness behind the staring of people.

When the news of Princess Jingning was reported to the ears of Emperor Dawu, Emperor Dawu was furious and directly sealed the Huancai Pavilion, and all the people were put in prison, and even a certain Dacheng, the backer behind the Huancai Pavilion, was also affected. Emperor Dawu even ordered a thorough investigation of the murderer of Princess Jingning.

The royal family has always been high, and there has never been a royal family that will die in the abandoned dry well of the Qinglou, or the daughter will be killed first, and Princess Jingning is still the first princess of Emperor Dawu, with a sweet and well-behaved mouth, and even loved by Emperor Dawu.

The news of Princess Jingning's murder suddenly swept the entire capital, and everyone was secretly guessing who was so bold as to kill Emperor Dawu's favorite princess, but no one knew.

When he learned the news, Lin Xia only felt sorry for the fact that a girl who was only twelve years old died like this, or did the woman kill first, it seems that whether it is modern or ancient, there will always be scum.

Lin Xia sighed and regretted here, but the atmosphere in the Lin Mansion was a little weird.

At this moment, Lin Chengyao was trembling and kneeling in front of Old Man Lin, his face was red, and he grabbed the corner of Old Man Lin's clothes and said anxiously: "Dad, what should I do, now in addition to the Praetorian Guard, the emperor has also sent the Criminal Department to investigate the murderer of Princess Jingning, wouldn't I, we be able to escape?" ”

Lin Chengyao's trembling voice obviously swore that he was afraid, and Old Man Lin comforted: "It's okay, it won't, it won't be able to find our heads......"

"Daddy! That's a princess, I heard that she is still the emperor's favorite princess, so I'd better leave the capital and run for our lives! ”

Hearing that he was going to leave the capital, Old Man Lin refused without thinking about it, "What are you talking about, we finally followed Zu'er to ......" Suddenly his head flashed, "Yes, we still have Zu'er!" He followed the prince to do things, and the old man is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, so he will definitely be able to keep us! Quick, go and call Zu'er! We consulted with him to keep our father and son. ”

This said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Lin Chengzu was knocking on the door at this time, and Old Man Lin didn't think about it, and directly let him in the door.

Hearing that it was Lin Chengzu's voice, Lin Chengyao hurriedly got up from the ground, and when he saw him, he pulled out an embarrassed smile, "Sixth brother, why is it so just, my father and I just talked about you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared behind him.

Seeing this, Old Man Lin and Lin Chengyao felt that something was wrong.

"Zu'er, why did you come in with your mother, and your look is still so ugly? But what's the matter? Old Man Lin's expression suddenly tightened, and he hurriedly asked.

Lin Chengzu said coldly: "Dad, I asked my mother about something just now, and my mother couldn't say it clearly, so I came to ask you." ”

"What's the matter?" Old man Lin intuitively felt that things were not good.

"Do you know where the third brother and the third sister-in-law are?"

Old man Lin's eyebrows were twisted into a knot, his eyes were fluttering, and he stumbled: "No, isn't it in the hometown of the third daughter-in-law......

"Really?" Lin Chengzu asked expressionlessly, with a bit of fierceness in his eyes.

How can I say that he has been mixed in the officialdom for two years, and now he is following the prince again, this ability to recognize people has not learned eight or nine points, but also six or seven points, Old Man Lin's weak heart is too obvious, and he doesn't even need to look at it.

"Why, why don't you believe what your father said!" Old man Lin tried to raise his tone a little more to make his words more credible.

Lin Chengzu sighed deeply, took out a letter from his arms and handed it directly to Old Man Lin, knowing that he was not very literate, and also explained: "This letter says that the magistrate of Lvlin County is Lin Chengzong, who has set up his own name in Lvlin County and collects taxes; It also colluded with officials and businessmen, took bribes, and looted people's fat and cream. ”

When Old Man Lin heard this, he hurriedly threw out the letter, "Zu'er, who gave you this letter, how can you slander the third child so much!" ”

"I'm very strange, why did I see the third brother and the third sister-in-law during the Chinese New Year this year, including even the nieces and nephews who wore gold and silver, and brought a lot of subordinates, and they were also generous, I thought that the third brother and the third sister-in-law's shop had a good business, but I didn't expect it, but the third brother became an official."

"Zu'er, you must have misunderstood!" Old man Lin said anxiously.

"The third brother doesn't have any fame, but he can be the magistrate of Qinghou County, presumably this official was bought." As he spoke, Lin Chengzu's tone became colder and colder.

"Zu'er, how can you not believe your third brother and your father!" Old man Lin looked distressed, almost making people think that someone really slandered him.

"Huh." Lin Chengzu sneered, "Dad, there is no impermeable wall in this world. Buying an official is a felony in the imperial court, if it is found out, are you going to ruin your son's career? ”

Old man Lin disagreed, "How can anyone find out about the third brother, the emperor is far away, and there are many people who buy officials, don't you go and report your third brother." ”

"Are you admitting that you know that the third brother bought officials and took bribes?"

Old man Lin frowned and waved his hand nonchalantly, "What's the matter, when you got married, your third brother also gave a lot of silver, he plans to buy a higher level, and he will only make more money when the time comes." ”

Lin Chengzu's face was pale, his fists were clenched tightly in his wide sleeves, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, have you ever thought that if this matter is found out, our Lin family will still have this life to spend money?" Since I was promoted, I have told you countless times to be cautious and not to cause trouble, I am just a little prince attendant, but I can't protect you! ”

Hearing Lin Chengzu say that he couldn't protect them, Lin Chengyao suddenly panicked, "Dad, you said that the sixth brother would keep us!" ”

Hearing this, Lin Chengzu's eyebrows tightened, obviously hearing that what Lin Chengyao said was not about buying officials, "What will protect you?" What happened again? ”

Under Lin Chengzu's questioning, Lin Chengyao hurriedly told him what he had done.

The incident was seven days ago, and the location was in the Huancai Pavilion.

On that day, Old Man Lin and Lin Chengyao went to Huancai Pavilion to drink flower wine, listen to small songs, and enjoy the dance of the Oiran as usual.

Suddenly, a man with white skin entered the Qinglou, his little head looked left and right, it was very novel, and it was the first time he entered the Qinglou to play.

Seeing that the person's eyebrows were picturesque, clear and beautiful, if he was born in the body of a daughter, he would be a stunning woman.

When I first entered the door, many people looked around and saw that the chest was flat, and they were sorry.

Fortunately, Lin Chengyao is very interested in this person, and there are many people in Beijing who play Xiaoqi, and he is also one of them, both men and women, seeing that he is so beautiful, how can he let it go.

I thought of a way, bought a pot of wine with the bustard, and then ran to talk to him, and saw that the beautiful man drank the wine as he wished, fainted in his arms, and directly picked up and opened the room.

Unexpectedly, the "beautiful man" who took off his robe became a woman, Lin Chengyao said to Old Man Lin with great interest as if he had picked up a treasure, and then the two fathers and sons indulged with this stunning woman in the room.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the woman woke up and found herself lying in the middle of the two men, with nothing on her body, and her whole body was sore, and she found mottled marks on her thighs, and there was a delicate bright red on the bed.

Old man Lin and Lin Chengyao, who were woken up by crying, saw the beauty crying, and the beast in their bodies rose again, and wanted to continue, but they saw the beauty come and say: "Presumptuous!" How dare you do such a thing to this princess, I want to tell my father that I will behead you all over the house, and you will be connected to the nine clans! ”

Hearing the eight big characters of the Nine Clans, Old Man Lin and Lin Chengyao suddenly sobered up, looked incredulous, and asked the identity of the beauty.

I saw her say angrily, "This princess is my father's favorite princess Jingning!" ”

Old man Lin and Lin Chengyao glanced at each other, they weren't sure whether this Princess Jingning was true or fake, if it was fake, it would be okay, but if it was true, then their Lin family would really be beheaded by the whole family, and the nine clans would be killed.
