No matter how Xiangling and Ling Qingyue analyze, the final suspicion will fall on the horse master, but there is no evidence for everything, and there is no starting point to clear Wang Wenqian's name.

Seeing that it is almost time to get up and go to the early dynasty, it is pointless to continue thinking like this.

Xiangling finally made up her mind and said: "Xianggong, tomorrow is the day when Wang Wenqian and Mei Lanzhu get married, and there must be a conclusion whether Wang Wenqian is involved in the case or not." The horse will definitely put pressure on Dali Temple today. Instead of being passive, we should be proactive. You are responsible for dragging the horse master tomorrow; I'll go to the princess's mansion to talk thoroughly; Sun Liangtian stared at the money bank, staring at whether anyone exchanged the silver ticket that the princess gave to the family; Xiao Liu'er went to explore the Horse Temple to see if there was anything greasy inside. ”

Ling Qingyue was full of opposition, and said with a worried face: "Lady, I don't worry about you going to the princess's mansion." Last time, the princess asked you to help Mei Lanzhu and Wang Wenqian protect the matchmaker, but you pretended to be trampled by a donkey, and the princess should still be angry. ”

Xiangling glanced at Ling Qingyue with disgust and said, "Now that Wang Wenqian is involved in the case, doesn't it confirm my foresight at that time?" I can push it on Wang Wenqian first, the princess is still a very reasonable person. If any clues are found and it is confirmed that the master of the horse does not want Mei Lanzhu to marry and frame Wang Wenqian, then the princess will definitely stand on our side and deal with the scum horse together. ”

Having said that, Ling Qingyue was still not at ease, so Qiao'er chose three strong mothers-in-law, and she sent ten more personal soldiers to stay with Xiangling.

Ling Qingyue said a few more words, and then hurried to the morning court.

When the sky dawned, Xiangling led people to the princess's mansion, and the mighty appearance was not like a visit, but like a fight.

When she arrived at the princess's mansion, Xiangling handed over the post, and the princess asked her to wait for half an hour before seeing her.

As Xiangling expected, because she pretended to be sick last time and didn't tell the matchmaker, the princess had a dislike for Xiangling in her heart, and her attitude towards Xiangling was cold.

If it weren't for Ling Qingyue's identity as a household secretary, it is estimated that the princess would not even bother to see Xiangling.

Xiangling looked remorseful, and knelt down directly to the princess and said: "Princess, the courtiers are guilty, they know that Wang Wenqian is not a good person, but they don't explain it to the princess, they just don't use their mouths to be a matchmaker, it's all the courtiers' fault, and I beg the princess to punish her." ”

The princess said suspiciously: "Wang Wenqian is not a good person, do you already know?" ”

Xiangling nodded his head and said: "Back to the princess, Wang Wenqian and the courtiers are neighbors in the same village, and they are very deep, Xiangling's intuition is not a good person, but he can't say where it is bad, because there is no evidence, and he doesn't want to be a flatterer, so he has to use his mouth and feet to have injuries, and there is no adult beauty." I didn't expect the princess to go to the Wang family in person to talk to the matchmaker. Now, this Wang Wenqian is involved in the case, and the courtiers feel even more guilty and have not fulfilled their duty to remind them......"

Seeing Xiangling's sincere appearance, the princess sighed and said: "At that time, you didn't say anything about it, I should have guessed that something was wrong at that time, but I was too anxious." ”

The princess softened her attitude and asked Xiangling to get up and sit in the next seat.

Xiangling breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and asked tentatively, "Princess, how is Miss Mei now?" ”

The princess sighed and said, "What can it be?" Hearing that Wang Wenqian abandoned his cousin in chaos, Lan Zhu actually forgave him, and the palace spent 10,000 taels of silver to calm the people, this matter, even attached to Ma Ye and Wang Wenqian were hidden, I didn't expect Wang Wenqian to be so vicious, and killed his stepmother, uncle, cousin and a group of eight people. ”

Xiangling's eyes narrowed, if the matter of 10,000 taels of silver, if the horse master didn't know, then it means that someone had swallowed 10,000 taels of silver tickets.

Xiangling secretly congratulated herself on her quick thinking, and sent people to garrison a few money houses that could be exchanged in advance, maybe she could catch the person who embezzled 10,000 taels, and found the horse master by touching the vine.

Xiangling was thinking about how to find an excuse to see Mei Lanzhu, but she didn't know that the maid Zixiao ran over and said to the princess urgently: "Princess, Miss Biao hanged herself and committed suicide, in the Zhilan Hall." ”

The princess was surprised: "Zhilan Hall? How can it be in the Zhilan Hall? ”

Zhilan Hall is a small living room next to Ma Ye's study, because the study often brings back court documents, so it is not used to entertain guests, unless they are also in the court; Don't let outsiders clean up, cousin Lanzhu cleans it herself.

Even if you clean it yourself, you shouldn't hang yourself here, this feeling, it feels like you're looking for a bad luck with the horse.

The princess hurried to the Zhilan Hall, and Xiangling also followed, but fortunately, Mei Lanzhu was successfully rescued.

Seeing the princess, Mei Lanzhu cried and said to the princess: "Princess, I won't marry, I won't marry for the rest of my life, will you and your cousin let Wang Wenqian go?" ”

The princess looked at Mei Lanzhu with pity and comforted: "Lanzhu, the state has national laws, and the family has family rules, Wang Wenqian was involved in the case, so naturally there is the "Daqi Criminal Law" to punish him." It's the palace that doesn't know people clearly, so your marriage is full of twists and turns, you forget about it, and after a while, it's restored, and this palace will find another lover for you......"

Mei Lanzhu was so frightened that her face was bloodless, and she waved her hand excitedly and said: "Lanzhu is an ominous person, if you don't marry, you won't marry for the rest of your life......"

Mei Lanzhu's eyes looked at the main hall of Zhilan Hall in horror---- on the picture of the princess's lady, her body trembled like chaff, as if she was in an ice cave.

Xiangling followed Mei Lanzhu's eyes and looked at it, it was the ink dot that seemed to have accidentally dripped on the painting.

Xiangling suddenly brightened, the ink dot on the princess's ankle on the painting was deliberately lit by Mei Lanzhu, she wanted to tell the princess something, but the careless Princess Pingle never found it.

Perhaps, hanging himself here today is also to let the princess discover something.

The princess still didn't find out, and the dumplings were boiled in the Meilan bamboo teapot, and she couldn't say anything.

What did she want the princess to discover in the Zhilan Room?

The princess is a good-faced person, and after saving Mei Lanzhu, she found that Xiangling was sneaky in the Zhilan Hall, and said with a displeased expression: "Mrs. Ling, the family is full of mundane things, so I won't keep you." ”

Xiangling had no choice but to leave the princess's mansion, and Mei Lanzhu's desperate and frightened eyes always appeared in her mind.

.

When he returned home, Ling Qingyue came back from the morning court, with a look of annoyance, and only after asking did he know that despite his every obstruction, Fuma still gave Dali Siqing an ultimatum, demanding that Wang Wenqian must be convicted before the auspicious time tomorrow.

And Jia Xiaoliu and Sun Liangtian are not very smooth.

Sun Liangtian said with annoyance: "I've been waiting for a day, and I haven't seen anyone exchange the silver ticket of the princess's mansion." ”

Jia Xiaoliu said with annoyance: "I wandered around the Horse Temple for a long time, except for finding that the whole temple was gloomy and cold, nothing else was found. ”

Several people fell into a gloomy mist again.
