"Niangniang, the Praetorian Guards found the body of Young Master Jin by the pond, and he was still dragging something in his hand."

After listening to what Red Sleeves said, Mrs. Yan fainted on the spot. That's the only son-in-law in the second room of the Yan family!

Yan Qingyu quickly came back to his senses, and knelt down with tears in his eyes and begged Xiao Junyan: "Ask the emperor to call the shots!" ”

No one expected the sudden change, the lively palace banquet was originally the grace of the Son of Heaven, and no one expected that such a thing would occur during the New Year.

Zhou Ping'er's heart tightened, what kind of young master, could it be Shen Zhinan's person who was stunned! But Shen Zhinan just knocked that person unconscious, and the drowning person should have nothing to do with them!

Feeling that the people around him were very nervous, Yue Ling held Zhou Ping'er's hand: "Sister Ping, don't be afraid!" ”

was comforting Zhou Ping'er, when he heard the voice of the Son of Heaven sound: "There is actually a life lawsuit in the palace, is this how you Praetorian Guards behave?" ”

Xiao Junyan was really angry, it should have been the Chinese New Year's Eve that the monarch was happy with, and he actually made such a bad thing. It's clearly stepping on his face with his feet.

"The emperor is angry!" The little commander of the Praetorian Guard was so frightened that he quickly kowtowed and admitted his mistake, and the ministers and family members present also knelt on the ground one after another.

"Brother Huang, stop your anger!" Looking at this person who knelt on the ground, Yue Ling reacted and knelt down at the latest.

Xiao Junyan had a trace of worry on his face, but in such a scene, he was not good at being partial to Yue Ling. can only continue to play a cold face.

Fortunately, there was also Empress Dowager Zhou sitting aside, she watched the palace banquets with frequent farces, and her dislike for Yan Qingyu was a little more. It's just that the scene still has to be suppressed in the end, otherwise it will be all royal face.

"Your Majesty, the King of the Criminal Department is also here, so it's better to hand over the whole case to him! This matter involves the Yan family, and letting Taishi Yan supervise this matter can be regarded as giving the Yan family an explanation, what do you think! ”

"According to what the queen mother said, Wang Yan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, listened to the order and ordered you to find out the truth within three days.

At this time, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department had to take over the order: "The old minister obeys the order!" ”

"The slave has something to say!" Red Sleeves didn't know what Yan Qingyu was muttering beside him, but when he saw Yan Qingyu's look, Red Sleeves crawled out on his knees.

Xiao Junyan didn't even bother to give Red Sleeves a look, only let Sanquan signal Red Sleeves to continue.

"Girl with red sleeves, say whatever you want!" Sanquan changed the kindness of the past and became serious.

Red Sleeves remembered everything he saw at the scene, so he boldly said: "The slave maid saw that the young master was holding a piece of jade pendant in his hand, and the jade pendant slave maid recognized that it belonged to Miss Zhou of Shoukang Palace." ”

Hearing Red Sleeves' words, Zhou Ping'er was stunned for a moment, her jade pendant? I touched my waist with my hand, and there was no trace of the jade pendant.

However, she had only been in contact with that man, could she ...... She didn't dare to think about it anymore, she didn't know what kind of predicament she was going to face.

Yue Ling knew that the good show he had designed was staged as scheduled, and the next thing was to watch the dog eat the dog.

This matter still has to be decided by the Son of Heaven, and it's not that Red Sleeves says anything. Xiao Junyan looked at the red sleeves coldly for a while before he slowly spoke: "Lord Wang, please go and examine the body first." ”

Seeing that the Son of Heaven did not deal with Zhou Ping'er, Red Sleeves thought that the Son of Heaven did not trust him, and continued: "The slave is convinced, that is Miss Zhou's jade pendant!" Please ask the emperor to check clearly. ”

Xiao Junyan only felt a headache, why did this matter have anything to do with Zhou Ping'er? It's obviously a person who can't be beaten with eight poles.

However, the Empress Dowager Zhou defended her niece, and when she saw the red sleeves making a loud noise, she reprimanded: "Presumptuous, what kind of system is it to make a loud noise in front of the Son of Heaven." The verdict of the case has its own Lord Wang of the Criminal Department, how can you rely on your words alone? ”

Red Sleeves buried his head on the ground, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "The queen mother atoned for her sins, and the slave maid didn't say a word!" ”

Too lazy to listen to Empress Dowager Zhou's lesson to a little palace maid, Xiao Junyan said something to stop her: "Don't say it, wait until my adult comes back!" ”

Everyone could only stay where they were, waiting for the post-mortem of the Criminal Department Lord to come back.

Yue Ling felt that time had passed so long, and she boredom observed the expressions of the people present twice before she saw that Lord Wang had come back with someone.

After Lord Wang's inspection and Yan Taishi's confirmation, the deceased was dressed in light cyan clothes, thin and tall, and was indeed the second concubine of the Yan family.

Everyone present gasped, and some even thought that this Yan Taishi was really unfavorable, and he took his nephew into the palace well, but he didn't play with people, so how can he explain to his family?

However, after Lord Wang continued, the Zhou family's face became worse and worse.

Rigor was indeed drowning, if it weren't for the jade pendant he was holding in his hand, it would indeed be like drowning. But how can an adult man slip and never get up again? This case seems to have a lot of suspicious points, but it is impossible to tell whether it was an accident or a murder.

Lord Wang brought the piece of jade in and specially presented it to Xiao Junyan for a look.

Xiao Junyan recognized the jade pendant as soon as he saw it, it was indeed the jade pendant that Zhou Ping'er usually wore on her waist. Lord Wang didn't just let Xiao Junyan look at it, and after Xiao Junyan finished reading it, he handed it to the Zhou family.

Zhou Zhenshan was shocked after seeing the jade pendant, it was indeed his daughter's jade pendant.

Even his brother Zhou Jingyang looked at Zhou Ping'er with doubtful eyes! Zhou Ping'er received the doubt in her brother's eyes, she was flustered, and she was worried about Shen Zhinan.

Because when she heard about the pale blue clothes and the tall and thin man, she determined that rigor was to flirt with her.

Lord Wang finally took the jade pendant and came to Zhou Ping'er: "Miss Zhou, you own this thing?" ”

Zhou Ping'er nodded, this jade pendant is hers, and the Zhou family's mark is engraved on it, but she really doesn't know when the jade pendant will be gone.

"Murderer! You are a murderer! Seeing this, Mrs. Yan couldn't help it anymore, she was such a nephew, how could she kill someone, how should she explain to her concubine when she goes back!

"No, not me!" Although Zhou Ping'er was still a little nervous, she made up her mind to bite to death and deny it, she couldn't harm Shen Zhinan.

"Then how do you explain this jade pendant?" It was Lord Wang who was questioning, since Zhou Ping'er recognized the jade pendant, and the jade pendant appeared on the deceased again, then Zhou Ping'er was suspicious, and she had to inquire about it.

"I don't know when the jade pendant fell off, I still wore it in the morning." Zhou Ping'er really wore a jade pendant in the morning, but how did it run into the hands of rigorous, she didn't dare to say.

After she said it, Shen Zhinan would be exposed, and the crime of entering the palace without permission was too serious for a person to be examined, she couldn't ruin Shen Zhinan's future, she could only bite to death and not know anything, and she hadn't seen rigor.
