"Why don't you investigate this matter, the slave also thinks that this matter may be just as the girl said."

Shi Tan's sudden words made everyone's attention shift from Lin Zhen and Xie Tianfan to hers.

There was a lot of discussion all of a sudden.

"It's just a maid, and she dares to say such a thing in front of the prince, and she is so bold."

"That's right, even if the prince was accepted into the palace back then, he can't be so bold."

"I heard that in this courtyard, that girl's favorite thing is Shi Tan, can't it be so spoiled that she doesn't even know that she is a maid?"

These ugly words are all listened to in my heart.

Although she is just a maid, Shi Tan does not allow anyone to slander herself like this.

If it weren't for the fact that she had more important things to do now, she would have gone back a long time ago.

Lin Zhen raised his eyebrows: "Shi Tan, you seem to have something to say about this matter?" ”

Shi Tan stubbornly walked out and saluted Lin Zhen: "Lord Wang, although there are many things that the slave and maid also heard from the girl, the slave and maid are the first to find out about this matter, so the slave and the maid must now stand up and say a few words for our girl." ”

"The prince doesn't have to doubt the authenticity of this matter, if the prince doesn't believe it, you can go and see, there is still the knife edge that the thief pierced into at night on the bedding."

Hearing this, many people took action.

But without the permission of the prince, they only dared to stand in place, stretching their necks to look at the bed.

But the curtain in front of the bed blocked their view, and no one knew what was going on inside.

Xie Tianfan just stood quietly in place, bowing his head and silently sad.

Shi Tan you are simply my little angel, and when this matter is over, I will definitely reward you for eating a big roast chicken!

Lin Zhen glanced at Xie Weifan coldly, and after a moment of silence, he waved his hand and asked the guards standing next to him to check.

The guard lifted the curtain and examined it carefully, and then walked respectfully in front of Lin Zhen.

"Tell the prince that there are indeed knives on the bedding and pillows."

"What the concubine said is true, why doesn't the prince believe the concubine."

The air was quiet all of a sudden, and Lin Zhen never gave an accurate answer, but looked at Xie Wei and stopped talking.

"It's absolutely impossible for our girl to lie and deceive people, the prince must believe it."

As Shi Tan spoke, he knelt directly on the ground with a thud.

Several maids who were quite benefited by Xie Weifan on weekdays also knelt down together.

Looking at this scene, Lin Zhen couldn't help but sneer: "The maids in your yard are loyal. ”

"It's the prince's training."

Stinky man, you're still here with me yin and yang, don't believe me, you wait for me, I will remember you for the rest of my life!

Xie Tianfan was angry, but he couldn't find a place to vent at this time.

"Then you say, do you know who assassinated you?"

Hearing Lin Zhen ask this question, Xie Weifan was a little excited in his heart.

"Finally asked me this question, if I don't ask again, I'm going to suffocate to death, it's so difficult to pretend to be wronged."

Xie Weifan raised his head unhurriedly, lifted his skirt and knelt straight in front of Lin Zhen.

"Please forgive me."

Everyone didn't understand why Xie Weifan suddenly knelt down and whispered.

"Why?" Lin Zhen also frowned, looked down, and looked at Xie Weifan, who was kneeling.

"Because of the person the concubine said next, the king may not believe it, but the concubine can be very sure that this person is going to assassinate the concubine at night."

"Let's see."

"This person is none other than the steward of the palace."

"Impossible!" Lin Zhen retorted without hesitation, "The housekeeper has no grievances with you in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, why are you like this?" ”

There was no injustice in the past, and there is no hatred in the near future, you don't know how many times he has offended me.

I didn't succeed in killing me twice, and you're still here to speak for him, you're really amazing.

"If the prince doesn't believe it, can you give the concubine a chance and ask the housekeeper to come over and confront him. If the concubine body says half a lie, the concubine body is willing to apologize with death! ”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone gasped.

Apologizing with death is not as simple as words say.

What's more, if you say these four words in front of Lin Zhen, if you really say it wrong, even if you are wronged, you have to fulfill your promise.

"Girl, the slave believes it, but it's better not to say it lightly."

Xie Weifan waved his hand and looked up at Lin Zhen with a determined gaze.

What is this little girl afraid of, she can't die anyway.

Lin Zhen heard Xie Weifan's mental activities clearly.

She was so determined, could it be that the person who assassinated tonight was really the butler?

Lin Zhen didn't speak for a long time, and the people around him also subconsciously held their breath, waiting for Lin Zhen to give an order.

After a moment of silence, he waved his hand.

It didn't take long for the butler to come in a hurry.

"Lord Wang!" He first saluted, and then asked with a smile, "What's going on, why did you wake me up in the middle of the night?" ”

Lin Zhen didn't answer his words, but stared at him with burning eyes, and asked in a serious tone: "Butler, there will be an assassin tonight, do you know about it?" ”

"Assassins tonight? I know. The butler replied with a frank look, "I heard someone say it on the way here." ”

"You talk nonsense!" Shi Tan was the first to stand up, and pointed at the housekeeper with some anger, "Obviously, after the incident, you rushed in with a large group of people and wanted to break into the girl's room." ”

The butler seemed to be taken aback by this sentence, he rolled his eyes a little weakly, and laughed awkwardly twice.

"Where did I start, when did I break in with a large group of people, and who saw it?"

Shi Tan realized that he had just gone out in a hurry to complete the task assigned by Xie Tianfan, and he didn't find that all the people standing on his side were some fresh faces.

It turned out that the housekeeper had already arranged everything, and even what to do after something went wrong.

Xie Weifan also felt that the housekeeper's thoughts were as deep as the sea.

I didn't expect him to even think of this layer, it seems that he underestimated him before.

"Did any of you see it?"

Lin Zhen exuded an oppressive momentum, which made the slaves and maids who came with him dare not speak, but now when they heard Lin Zhen ask, they all shook their heads.

"No, I didn't see it."

Although this scene had been expected, when it actually happened, Shi Tan was still more or less unbelievable.

Obviously, several of the slaves and maids in the room now went out with her, why did they deny it now?
