King Yi had already received the news, and the emperor had summoned Dong Zheng of the Criminal Department to inquire about the case. Needless to say, the result was definitely a failure. So King Yi brought the key person Minzhu to report the case.

The palace attendants stood on both sides of the main hall, and King Yi waited at the door with Minzhu, and the inner attendants passed the word before entering the main hall.

King Yi didn't have anything, he looked calm and composed.

But Minzhu is different, just now at the door still looked complacent, but when he entered this hall, he suddenly felt that the air seemed to be condensed, and the whole person suddenly converged.

The palace attendants outside the hall are still standing in the sun, and they are so popular, but in this quiet hall, because the backlight is a lot darker, the palace and the inner servants have lost their color, and they are expressionless like mud puppets.

It is said that the Son of Heaven must not be sloppy in front of him, Minzhu followed King Yi, and suddenly looked up and saw the current Wu Zhou Tianzi with a strong complexion behind the heavy curtains, and immediately knelt on the ground in fright.

I peeked at a red-clad official on my left, sweating profusely and trembling.

Minzhu was even more nervous, and kept the child in her arms tightly.

Finally relieved the tense breath in his heart, raised his eyes and looked at his right hand, a man in an apricot yellow python robe stood on the side of the hall with his hands down, his face was gloomy, of course this person was the prince.

The moment the two of them touched their eyes, Minzhu clearly felt the hostility in his eyes, and hurriedly lowered his head, never daring to raise his head again.

Min Zhu only complained bitterly in her heart, but when she didn't know what to do, King Yi calmly greeted her.

"What are you doing in the palace at this time?" The emperor's voice passed through the heavy curtains as if coming from the sky, Minzhu saw Tianyan for the first time, and she didn't know what to say so she only held the child and lay on the ground, and she didn't dare to breathe.

"Erchen knows that his father is worried about the Guiyifang case, so he specially entered the palace to relieve his father's worries!" King Yi lifted his robe and knelt on the ground respectfully.

"You?" The emperor got up slowly, half-squinting at his son who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes were misty! It's obviously a sunny spring day, and seeing which cold eyes make people feel like they are in the thick fog of midwinter.

"You have always been only responsible for the rescue of the Guiyi Fang fire and the resettlement of the victims, if you come to solve your worries today? Do you have an idea of how the case is going! ”

"It's not about ideas, it's about judgments!" The corner of King Yi's eyes swept over Dong Zheng, who was shrinking to the side, and he clearly saw his body shaking violently!

The prince said tepidly: "It turns out that King Yi is secretly investigating the case!" ”

"Brother Prince's brother misunderstood, the younger brother didn't investigate the case, he just happened to meet someone! She said she knew the details of the whole case! ”

"It's strange, the Criminal Department was ordered to investigate the case of the Guiyifang fire, and the key human and physical evidence was searched for several days, but there was no result, but how did King Yi meet the key human evidence so coincidentally?"

The prince's soft words attracted the emperor's slight sideways, he was both a father and an emperor, and he knew that his two sons had been fighting for the throne for a long time, including all kinds of tricks, sometimes even bloody.

It's just that King Yi has been defeated in recent years, and it seems to have calmed down a little, and when the prince said this, the emperor's sensitive nerves were teased again, and he couldn't help but glance at King Yi again.

King Yi's eyebrows didn't wrinkle, but his complexion was clear, as if it was a magnolia in the wind, although it was swaying by the wind, his demeanor was not reduced at all.

Slowly raised his hand and saluted and said: "This person has met his brother, and his brother has kindly taken him in." For the public! The younger brother should send her to the criminal department, but she only proved that she was unwilling, because she was afraid that she would be killed, so the younger brother had no choice but to bring her to see her father and the emperor today to make it clear in person. ”

"Extinguish? My world is so bright, can't I keep a single witness? The emperor flicked his sleeves, and his eyes flew straight to Minzhu who was lying on the ground, fortunately she had been lying on the ground, otherwise the emperor would have frightened her for a while and didn't know what to say.

King Yi smiled coldly in his heart, but his face still remained calm and said: "Father doesn't have to worry too much about this, after all, they are ordinary people, and their survival is their foundation, if they don't see something extremely frightening, they will never just think of saving their lives as the first priority!" ”

"What the hell is that? Don't be verbose! "As soon as the emperor's anger came up, he began to blow his beard!

King Yi nodded and turned to Minzhu, who was still lying on the ground, and said, "Minzhu don't be afraid, you raise your head and tell what you see!" ”

Minzhu trembled, raised her head from the ground tremblingly, and responded with a snort: "Minzhu, a folk girl, meets the emperor and asks the emperor to pardon Minzhu for a way to live!" ”

"King Yi said that you are the key witness in the Guiyifang fire case, so what do you say you saw? I only ask for the truth, and the way to live is naturally to give, but if there is a lie, I will definitely make your death ugly! ”

Minzhu's teeth knocked, and her ruddy lips were bitten and bloodied, and she said excitedly: "What the folk girl said is all what she saw with her own eyes, and there is absolutely no falsehood!" ”

As he spoke, he shook off all the things he saw in the teahouse that night about Zhuo Yinfeng's murder and arson, but he didn't say a word about King Yi.

Zhuo Yinfeng is the prince's person, and the prince feels like his mouth full of teeth has been knocked out when he listens to Minzhu's words, but he can't say a word in his mouth.

However, the emperor stood on the side of the dragon chair on his forehand and said: "You are a woman who is pregnant again, why did you suddenly appear in Guiyifang in the middle of the night, and happened to see Zhuo Yinfeng's crime process clearly?" ”

This question Minzhu's tears rolled down and said: "The folk girl doesn't dare to deceive the emperor, just because the folk girl is also raised in Dongshi after Zhuo Yinfeng came back from the Qinglou redemption. Zhuo Yinfeng has always said that he would take the folk girl back to the Nangong Marquis Mansion to give her a name. But there was no movement until the last year, when the girl was pregnant, and said that it was not too late to wait for the girl to give birth to the child and then take it back to the Hou Mansion. The folk girl also thought that it was because the eldest daughter of Lord Zhuo's family would dislike the identity of the folk girl and wanted to have a child who could speak better. But this is not the case. ”

"And what are the facts?"

"The fact is that Zhuo Yinfeng wants to see if I give birth to a boy or a girl! Moreover, the folk girl also heard rumors that Lord Zhuo had raised several women in the city, all of whom were pregnant. said that he had no children under his knees, and a son-in-law who was rich was useless, Zhuo Yinfeng was worried that Nangong Hou would have no successor, and he just wanted to see who gave birth to a son and would take him back to the Hou Mansion in the future. If he does not have a son, he will simply abandon it. The folk girl didn't believe it, so she went out to investigate according to the rumors in the market that night. ”

Mingzhu burst into tears when she spoke, and kept wiping the tears on her face with her sleeves: "Actually, the folk girl doesn't know where the specific location is, she just wants to go out and have a look, because this is related to the livelihood of the folk girl in the future!" As I walked, I heard a loud noise on the side of Guiyifang, so I went to take a look, but I didn't expect to see Zhuo Yin committing murder. He kept shouting that the most useless thing in the world was a woman, and he killed a woman first, and then set fire to the woman in the courtyard and burned it to death! The folk girl was frightened, and when she came back, she hid. But I didn't expect that the folk girl was still a girl because she was afraid that the child would be born prematurely, so the folk girl was even more scared! I was afraid that Zhuo Yinfeng would find him and kill himself like the mother and daughter in Yi Yuan. A few days ago, I saw the emperor come to Guiyifang to comfort the people, and he wanted to investigate the case of the fire in Guiyifang. So many people died in Guiyifang, and the court couldn't solve the case for a long time, and the people were shocked, scared and uneasy, and finally went to ask His Royal Highness King Yi! ”
