Chapter 168: Tanuki for the Prince?

Mrs. Cui ran madly in front of Fu Xuanlin and Zhan Xinglan, and looked at the two of them happily.

"Zhen'er, Xiu'er, you hold hands, and you can be considered reconciled. Come, A-Niang will take you to eat candied fruits."

With that, Mrs. Cui pulled the two of them and walked to the front hall.

The maidservants behind her said that they couldn't help it, and there were two little maids of Madame Lattri.

But Mrs. Cui was very strong, and she didn't move at all.

Zhan Xinglan and Fu Xuanlin looked at Mrs. Cui with a confused expression, thinking that this Mrs. Cui should not be crazy.

While a group of people were in a hurry, Zhan Xinglan quickly grabbed Mrs. Cui's wrist.

"The liver and gallbladder are full of fire, yin and yang are deficient, and the pulse is disordered, and eighty percent of them are too stimulated and crazy."

Who knew that Mrs. Cui heard it, and instantly shook off Zhan Xinglan's hand.

"Who said I was crazy! You don't have a rabbit, you're not my Jane!"

Then she took Fu Xuanlin's hand again and said affectionately:

"Xiu'er, we ignore her, A-Niang will take you to eat your favorite preserves."

Fu Xuanlin wanted to break away from Mrs. Cui's hand, but Zhan Xinglan gave him a look, and he reluctantly followed Mrs. Cui into the front hall.

Zhan Xinglan hurriedly stopped those anxious maids and asked:

"Where's the Prince?"

"Lang Jun has entered the palace, Mrs. has become stupid and stupid since she burned the body of the second lady, Lang Jun really has no choice, so he can only go to the palace to ask the imperial doctor to treat Mrs. The princess is really sorry, we couldn't watch the lady."

"It's okay. This princess is also familiar with medical science, so it is better to let this princess try it first. Wait outside the antechamber, and the princess will call you something."

With that, Zhan Xinglan rushed into the front hall and closed the door.

The maids had heard of Zhan Xinglan's medical skills, and now in this situation, they could only obey Zhan Xinglan's wishes. Look at the book

In the antechamber –

Fu Xuanlin reluctantly ate a mouthful of candied fruit.

The original delicate and tough face lines are propped up round, and they are surprisingly cute.

Zhan Xinglan couldn't help but look at Fu Xuanlin with a smile, and wanted to take the opportunity to touch his rare cute little chubby face.

But as soon as she stretched out her hand, she heard Mrs. Cui say earnestly:

"Xiu'er, A-Niang told you, you can't always bully Zhen'er in the future. She's ugly by nature, but she's your sister."

Zhan Xinglan was puzzled, "Sister? Isn't Wei Xiu smaller than Wei Zhen?"

"Who are you?"

Faced with Mrs. Cui's questioning, Zhan Xinglan was taken aback.

She had an idea and grabbed Mrs. Cui's arm.

"A-Niang, I'm Zhen'er!"

"Jane? Then why don't your lips have a split? Oh, Ah Niang knows, it must be the Confessed Qing Dao Master who drove away the evil for you, so you don't have a gap."

"Ah, yes! That's it."

"I knew that the Regret Qing Dao Leader was so powerful, Ah Niang wouldn't have dropped the two of you in the first place."

Zhan Xinglan and Fu Xuanlin suddenly said in unison: "Drop the bag!?"

"It's all A-Niang's fault. If it weren't for my momentary obsession, you would all be alive and well now."

Mrs. Cui grabbed Zhan Xinglan and looked at her with teary eyes.

"Zhen'er, if you do it again, A-Niang will definitely not exchange you for Xu Jumei. Over the years, A-Niang has lived in torment every day. Now that you have taken Xiu'er away, A-Niang's heart is completely dead."

Zhan Xinglan looked at Mrs. Cui and seemed to understand what Mrs. Cui was talking about.

"So, it was actually you who gave birth to the rabbit's daughter back then! And you wrapped up two newborn children for the sake of fame and face, so that Xu Niangzi thought that the children she gave birth to were born with a lack of rabbits!"

Mrs. Cui let go of Zhan Xinglan's hand and turned around to cry, but after a while she laughed again.

"Retribution! Retribution! My daughter took my daughter!

Hahaha! Zhen'er, Xiu'er, you run slower."

Seeing that Mrs. Cui seemed to be running with something in the front hall, Fu Xuanlin got up and said:

"It seems that she really thought that Wei Xiu was taken away by Wei Zhen's unjust soul, so she was driven crazy by the guilt and fear in her heart."

Zhan Xinglan sighed, "It turns out that she is Wei Zhen's biological mother, I really don't know what she will feel like when she watches Wei Xiu bully Wei Zhen."

"Perhaps, she also told Wei Xiu not to bully Wei Zhen like Fang Cai."

"Pity Wei Zhen, who died early, was obviously a noble daughter, but she died in a cold well. What's even more pitiful is Xu Jumei, she actually designed to kill her own daughter for her bloodless daughter. This is ridiculous!"

Zhan Xinglan's heart couldn't help but hurt.

She really sympathized with Xu Jumei.

This woman did nothing wrong, but she was forced to kill her own daughter.

Looking at this Mrs. Cui again, she is the culprit of the whole thing, but in the end, she is just crazy.

The more Zhan Xinglan thought about it, the more angry he became, so he turned his face and left.

Seeing this, Fu Xuanlin hurriedly followed.

After opening the door, a group of maids immediately surrounded Zhan Xinglan.

"Princess Ling, how is Madam?"

"Mrs. Cui is very sick, and there is nothing this princess can do!"

After that, Zhan Xinglan left without looking back.

On the carriage, Fu Xuanlin held Zhan Xinglan's hand.

"Lan'er."

"Husband, will you tell Xu Niangzi the truth?"

"No, it won't."

"Why?"

"She gave her all for Wei Zhen. If she is told now that her own daughter has been transferred, and she has killed her own daughter in order to adopt her, what will she do with herself?"

"Then she'll never know the truth."

"Lan'er, if it were you, would you tell her the truth?"

Zhan Xinglan's heart sank.

If it were her, she might not have told Xu Jumei the truth.

By now, everything about the Wei family has been clarified.

But how did Xu Jumei kill Wei Xiu?

Fu Xuanlin went to the Moon Hall of Toad Palace again.

He stood at the foot of the stairs and thought about what had happened on the day of the feast.

At that time, the only one who could do it to Wei Xiu was one of the little ladies who worshiped the moon with her at that time.

But if there is no proof of death, who will admit it?

"Eleventh brother, I heard that you have been running to Weifu for the past two days, and I want to get a lot of gains."

Fu Xuanlin listened to the voice of the visitor, turned around and said, "The third brother seems to be very aware of his brother's every move."

"Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, and fighting with the eleventh brother so many times, you must always learn a lesson. The day after tomorrow, I will give an explanation to my father and the envoys, can the eleventh brother find out the truth?"

"Not yet."

"It turns out that the eleventh brother's ability to investigate the case is nothing more than this, thanks to the high hopes of your father."

Fu Xuanlin was too lazy to deal with Fu Tingxuan, so he arched his hand and said, "If the third brother has nothing else to do, the younger brother will retire first."

"Eleventh brother go slowly, we'll see you in Hanyuan Hall the day after tomorrow!"

Fu Tingxuan shouted loudly.

He couldn't wait to see how Fu Xuanlin would look defeated at that time.

Soon, the five-day deadline had arrived.

Emperor Jing summoned all the envoys and courtiers to the Hanyuan Palace.

In the center of Hanyuan Hall, there are two slender jade figures.

Emperor Jing cleared his throat solemnly and asked, "Five days have passed, and the second lady of the Wei family fell to death at the Mid-Autumn Festival Night Banquet, can the prince and King Ling thoroughly investigate it?"

Fu Tingxuan glanced at Fu Xuanlin, who was speechless, and said, "Back to my father, my son has found out that the second lady of the Wei family fell to death because he suffered from fear of heights."

"The steps of the Moon Hall of the Toad Palace are three feet high, and people who are afraid of heights will feel dizzy, short of breath, and even double the steps in front of their eyes. It was because of her fear of heights that the second lady of the Wei family was unstable under her feet, and she fell down the steps weightlessly."

After finishing speaking, everyone in Hanyuan Hall began to discuss.

One of the envoys stood up and asked, "So, the death of the second lady of the Wei family was just an accident, not a curse or an assassin?"

"Yes, it was just an accident."

"But how can we believe that the second lady of the Wei family really suffers from fear of heights?"

"Wei Taifu can testify!"

As soon as Fu Tingxuan's words fell, he saw Wei Taifu Qing walking behind the prince with a half-dead look.

"Back to Your Majesty, the little girl has suffered from fear of heights since she can remember, and the old minister can testify to this."

Emperor Jing nodded, "I know, Aiqing is a lot haggard, let's sit down quickly."

Wei Tai Fuqing was not only a lot haggard, but his heart was also dead.

His daughter died, his wife went crazy, and his concubine was grounded by himself, and now he has really become a lonely old man.

However, even with Wei Taifuqing's testimony, Fu Xuanlin did not believe that Wei Xiu's death would be so simple.

If Wei Xiu was afraid of heights since she was a child, how could she push Wei Zhen into the well?

She didn't dare to approach the wellhead at all!

This old guy is the prince's person, and it is normal to say a few words that echo the prince.

Those envoys obviously believed the words of Wei Tai Mansion Secretary and Fu Tingxuan.

Anyway, as long as it's not a curse, an assassin or something, they can leave the cold country with confidence.

And this is exactly what Emperor Jing wanted.

The envoys left one after another, and only Emperor Jing, Fu Tingxuan and Fu Xuanlin, father and son, were left in Hanyuan Palace.

After a period of silence, Emperor Jing sighed.

"Today's business, the prince has done a good job. It not only appeases the envoys, but also saves the face of the cold."

"Father and Emperor falsely praised, in fact, the eleventh brother has been busy in the Wei Mansion for the past five days, and his credit is not small."

Fu Tingxuan pretended to be very generous.

Emperor Jing couldn't help but be pleased when he saw that Fu Tingxuan had made progress.

In the days that followed, the envoys left the capital one after another.

But just when everyone thought that Wei Xiu's death was over, Wei Taifu Qing knelt down in the court and begged Emperor Jing to punish Fu Xuanlin.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has nothing now, I just want to implore Your Majesty to give the old minister's daughter justice! If it weren't for King Ling's night banquet in the Moon Hall of Toad Palace, Wei Xiu would not have suffered an attack of altitude and fell innocently to his death!"

"Wei Tai Fuqing, since you have a grudge in your heart, why didn't you say it until today?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once advised the old minister not to lose face because of this incident, so the old minister has been holding back. Now all the envoys of all the countries have left, except for the king of the holy temple of Dunli and the king of Bomi, and the old ministers need no longer bear it."

"You can set the Moon Hall of Toad Palace, and I nodded and agreed, does Wei Taifu Qing even have to resent me?"

"The old minister doesn't dare! Lao Chen just hopes that His Majesty can understand Lao Chen's compassion as a father. The old minister has followed His Majesty for decades, and there is no merit but also hard work. Please also ask Your Majesty to read for the sake of the old minister's loyalty, and seek justice for the old minister's innocent daughter! If His Majesty refuses to punish His Royal Highness King Ling, then the old minister will not be able to kneel down on this Hanyuan Palace!"
