As soon as these words came out, the eldest princess was stunned for a few breaths.

It's just that immediately, she thought of something, looked at Chu Yan's eyes, and looked at her with displeasure, "Are you questioning this palace?" Women with strong martial arts skills may not all be martial maids of the palace, and even if they are, they may not be driven by the palace. Last night, the two female assassins, who used to be the maids of the palace, were expelled for making mistakes, and you can see that they want the palace to die. ”

Because she trusted Chang Gonggong too much, Chang Gonggong set aside her power.

When the eldest princess thought of this, she vomited blood with hatred.

"King An grew up watching from this palace, his mother died early, and he had a relationship with this palace, and it was too late for this palace to hurt him, so how could he harm him!"

Shen Lingxi raised his eyes to look at King An.

An Wang is still immersed in the thought of "never believe".

It was Yuzhu, seeing Shen Lingxi looking over, and said to her: "The eldest princess has always regarded His Royal Highness King An as her own, and it is impossible to harm His Royal Highness, but it is the concubine and the Duke of Weiguo, because of the relationship between Niangniang, and His Royal Highness are very close......"

These words reminded Shen Lingxi of when he met King An in King An's Mansion, he had not even come out of the attic for two years.

It's just that someone told him before he died, "You can't leave", "You can't tell others" and so on.

Shen Lingxi looked at the young man's pale face again, still with an expression of disbelief, and his heart was faintly touched.

In the corner of Chu Yan's eyes, seeing Shen Lingxi's gaze staring at the door, thinking that she had said to herself during the day, "I can see the soul of King An", her eyes moved slightly.

"The person who threw the corpse was not sent by my aunt, and must have another purpose, and would not throw the body into the attic where King An died for no reason."

He thought for a few breaths and came to a conclusion, "In short, tonight I have let them know that my aunt has indeed died, and now that we know who the enemy is, a little trick can make the other party mess up, and then take the opportunity to find out the real murderer, and return you and me to innocence." ”

The eldest princess nodded, and said hatefully: "As long as the evidence is obtained, the palace will personally go to the imperial brother to present the case, and this matter will never be reconciled with them, the Zhao family is not only unkind to the palace, but also blames the palace for being unjust to them." ”

*

Early in the morning of the second day, the officials of Dali Temple and the Beijing Mansion dug up several corpses in the back garden of the eldest princess.

One of the corpses held a long sword in his hand, which perfectly matched the wound on the corpse of the eldest princess.

It was identified as the eldest princess's martial maid who had been expelled from the palace during her lifetime.

The martial maids around the eldest princess were all trained by the first emperor to order the internal guards to search for orphans with good roots and bones from the people.

Wu Wan has no relatives and no reason in this world, and after being expelled from the house, it is not difficult to find out where she stayed.

Dali Temple followed the clues of Wu Wan to investigate, and soon "found" that Cui Juma had hidden in the suburbs of Beijing.

At this point, Cui Juma pretended to return to his hometown to visit relatives, but in fact, the matter of hiding in Beizhuang was revealed by Dali Temple.

For a time, Cui Juma was pushed to the cusp.

Rumors about this matter in the capital spread widely.

It is said that Cui Juma could not stand the strength of the eldest princess and instructed the assassin to kill the eldest princess.

It is also said that Cui Yuma and the eldest princess have a deep relationship, and this matter must have been deliberately designed by someone to kill two birds with one stone and kill the eldest princess and his wife.

And this person vaguely pointed to Chu Yan, who was also locked up in the mansion of the eldest princess of Pingyang.

The stakes are high, and a corpse alone cannot confirm that Cui Yuma is the mastermind behind the murder of the eldest princess.

Dali Temple locked Cui Juma alone in a courtyard, waiting for the emperor to send a special envoy to come to observe and then interrogate.

Cui Jin couldn't have imagined that in just one night, all the spearheads were pointed at him.

He didn't close his eyes all night, as long as he closed his eyes, he remembered the corpse of the eldest princess, grabbing his wrist to "take him away".

For him, this image was terrifying at first, and then it became unlucky.

In his heart, he attributed all these many troubles to the eldest princess's resentment, and she didn't blink her eyes to death, and wanted to "take him away".

Extremely tired and anxious, he had forgotten that the words "take him away" came from his mouth in the first place.

Cui Jin was complaining all over his stomach that when the eldest princess was alive, he tolerated her arrogance and willfulness everywhere.

Now that she's dead, she doesn't want to let him go.

What a bad fate.

Compared with Cui Jin's situation taking a sharp turn for the worse, Chang Gonggong is much more stable.

Although he was frightened, no one suspected him.

Everything in the mansion should be taken care of, except for the small courtyard where the imperial grandson lives, he takes care of it.

Yes, Cui Jin was imprisoned, and he could still carry the food box and come in to deliver food to Cui Jin.

As soon as he saw Chang's father-in-law, Cui Jin impatiently stepped forward and asked, "Has father-in-law ever delivered the news?" What did Grandpa Guo say? What happened to the corpse of the martial maid? Didn't you say that Zhuangzi was safe and wouldn't be discovered, so why did it find out to me? ”

In a hurry, he stopped stammering, and his father-in-law was a little surprised.

"Master Pony, you are calm and calm."

Grandpa Chang tried to appease Cui Jin's anxious mood: "Grandpa Guo has been paying attention to the movements here, as long as the horse bites to death, don't recognize anything, Dali Temple will not dare to convict easily without evidence, and Grandpa Guo will also let the concubine Niangniang intercede for you in front of the emperor." ”

Hearing him mention Zhao Guifei, Cui Jin finally calmed down.

Fang Fang's face, which was still anxious, had a slight softness.

Cui Jin took a deep breath, walked to the table and sat down, "The eldest princess is the emperor's sister, and she is deeply favored by the emperor, and it is related to the death of the eldest princess, so don't let Ah Yu intercede for me, so as not to provoke the emperor's suspicion and make it difficult for her to do it in the palace." ”

Ah Yu is Zhao Guifei's nickname when she was in the boudoir, and he said it so affectionately, if it was heard by others, it would be a great crime of disrespect.

But Cui Jin didn't care about it.

Being able to say the name "Ah Yan" in front of people is the greatest comfort to him at this moment.

Father-in-law Chang seemed to have long been used to it, and smiled and complimented as usual: "The horse is still the same as when he was young, thinking about the mother everywhere, if the mother knows, her heart will be very moved." ”

"Don't ...... Don't tell her. ”

Cui Jinduan's face had a trace of heartache and self-touch, "I did all this willingly for her, as long as she can do it, what if I let me give up this life for her." ”

The smile on Grandpa Chang's face deepened, but a touch of contempt swept silently under his eyes.

"The concubine's intentions are naturally cherished. Grandpa Guo also let the slave take the words, in order to keep the heart of the eldest princess for the Zhao family, he did not hesitate to sacrifice himself to marry, endure humiliation, and seek perfection, in exchange for the eldest princess's sincerity, she has been sheltering the mother for so many years, Grandpa Guo has always been impressed, he asked the old slave to tell the princess, no matter what conspiracy there is in the emperor's grandson this time, he will do whatever it takes, and will never let the princess suffer the slightest harm. ”

When Cui Jin heard this, his heart finally returned to his stomach.

He looked up at the bright moon in the sky, as if he saw the face of his sweetheart who smiled gently at him.

Cui Jin lowered his head, and a touch of warmth in his eyes was firmly revealed: "Please rest assured, no matter what means they use, they don't want to get any confession from me." I will never betray the grandfather and concubine. ”
