The carriage scurled forward, and when it came to an alley, Leng Lan suddenly heard a cry coming from the alley, and she lifted the curtain to look: "What is the movement?" ”

The coachman stopped the carriage, and after a while, a guard reported after inquiring about the news: "Princess Yu, it's Pifu who is raiding the house." ”

Collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country is a felony of the nine clans, and one of the Pi Mansions is counted as one, and none of them can be avoided.

Not only the people of Pifu, but even the clansmen who did not live in Pifu, as long as they are still alive, will be arrested and beheaded at a later date.

Leng Lanzhi listened to the crying sound hovering over Pifu, and his mood was complicated.

In the crowd, Mei Ran'er looked unbearable: "Little grandfather, these ladies are so pitiful." ”

Murong Xuanjun's face tensed and did not speak.

At this time, a girl from the Pi family shouted loudly: "We have been wronged! We didn't do anything, why should we be arrested?! ”

A soldier said: "Just by collaborating with the enemy with the surname Pi, the evidence is conclusive!" ”

"We don't know that my father collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, what does this have to do with us?" The girl argued.

The soldier sneered: "Don't tell us this, we are just acting on orders!" What's more, the law of the Sheng Dynasty is so unconvinced! ”

"I want to see Your Majesty!"

The girl resisted desperately, and even tried to push away the soldiers around her and rush out.

Seeing this, the soldier who spoke kicked her in the stomach and said coldly: "Be honest! Your family is a felon, and even if I kill you on the spot, no one will say anything. If you dare to make trouble again, don't blame me for being rude! ”

Mei Ran'er hugged Murong Xuan's arm: "Little Master Murong, let's help them!" ”

Murong Xuan: "? ”

Mei Ran'er said with tears in her eyes: "What the facts of Lord Pi's matter are still inconclusive, but no matter what, these female dependents are innocent, and they should not be implicated." ”

"Besides, look at those officials, why do they treat those female dependents like that? It's too much! ”

Murong Xuan: "......"

He was indeed a little blindsided.

Leng Lanzhi came to the door of Pi Mansion and happened to hear Mei Ran'er's words.

Seeing that Murong Xuan seemed to really want to help the Pifu lady, she almost wanted to pry open Murong Xuan's brain and see if there was paste inside!

"Does Little Grandpa Murong feel that the life of the Zhennan Mansion is too comfortable, and he wants to make some trouble for the second elder?"

Murong Xuan paused, and the sentence "Shut up" became before he could say it: "Princess? Why are you here? ”

Leng Lanzhi said lightly: "The chariot of the palace passed by here, so he came down to take a look. ”

Murong Xuan was silent.

He hasn't forgotten what happened last time.

At that time, he asked her why she killed his right-hand maid a few years ago, but she avoided talking about it, which made him even more convinced that she had done something wrong.

Originally, he still had some doubts in his heart, but now there were no doubts at all, only deep confusion and anger.

Mei Ran'er's gaze swirled between the two, although Murong Xuan's face was cold, and she quickly withdrew her gaze from Leng Lanzhi's body, but she keenly sniffed out that the bond between the two seemed to be deeper.

Only if you care, will it be awkward.

If he didn't care, Murong Xuan wouldn't have such an expression of a dead father.

Her eyes flashed slightly, and she decided to add a fire to completely burn off the bond between the two: "Princess, please, save these ladies in Pi Mansion!" They are so pathetic! ”

At this time, there were not only a few of them watching, but also many people nearby.

Knowing that this girl with gorgeous makeup was the princess of the dynasty, she couldn't help but show a look of awe and curiosity.

Mei Ran'er said: "Men don't discuss anything with their female dependents, but when men commit crimes, female dependents have to be followed to death together, how unfair is this to female dependents?" ”

Many of the onlookers were women, and they couldn't help but feel related when they heard this.

As women, they can empathize.

"yes, what did these ladies do wrong? Why should we die with them? ”

Hearing the echoing words around her, a smile crossed Mei Ran'er's eyes.

She wanted to see, under the gaze of so many pairs of eyes, what was this woman going to do?

Speaking out to help is tantamount to disobeying Emperor Jianliang's orders, which will anger Emperor Jianliang.

Even if Emperor Jianliang would not punish her because she was a favored princess, he would definitely delay her because of this.

If she didn't help, the spittle of these people around her would drown her!

Leng Lan saw Mei Ran'er's intentions at a glance, and her noble eyebrows and eyes were full of coldness and mockery: "Miss Mei wants to use morality to kidnap this palace? ”

"It's a pity that in the heart of this palace, the safety and interests of Sheng Guo are greater than everything, and the laws of Sheng Guo are greater than everything!"

"The law is like this, and it is impossible for this palace to openly oppose the law of the dynasty."

Mei Ran'er seemed to be frightened by her burst of momentum, her body shrank for a moment, and she couldn't help but fade behind Murong Xuan: "Princess, I just think this law is too harsh......"

Leng Lanzhi glanced at her with a smile, and suddenly pointed the finger at Murong Xuan: "It's normal that Miss Mei doesn't understand why this law is so prescribed, but Little Master Murong has been familiar with the law since he was a child, so he won't be stupid, right?" ”

Murong Xuan frowned slightly.

Her attitude made him very uncomfortable.

But he did know why.

Moreover, he is also a little scared now.

Fortunately, he didn't shout the phrase "shut up" just now, otherwise it would really bring trouble to the Zhennan Mansion.

As soon as the thought came to him, he froze.

So, is she trying to stop him......

He had mixed feelings.

Seeing that Murong Xuan's expression was wrong, Mei Ran'er almost wanted to bite a mouthful of silver teeth, but there was a disapproving expression on her face: "No matter what the reason is, you can't implicate the innocent......

Murong Xuan heard this sentence as soon as he came back to his senses, and he didn't know what kind of psychology he had, he subconsciously glanced at Leng Lanzhi, but saw Leng Lanzhi's eyes full of mockery.

He felt even more uncomfortable in his heart, and said: "A hundred years ago, an official of the previous dynasty was found to have collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and according to the law at that time, he should have been connected with the nine clans. ”

But the queen at that time was kind-hearted, and she also felt that innocent people should not be implicated, especially those female dependents. The queen of the previous dynasty felt that the sin was committed by a man, and the woman was raised in a deep boudoir, weak and powerless, and had no ability to take revenge. ”

So she pleaded with the former emperor and pardoned the ladies and dealt only with the men in the official's household.

"Three years later, foreign enemies invaded, almost like no one, and almost hit the capital."

"It was later found out that it was all because of ...... Someone was instigating behind the scenes. And the person who instigated it was the daughter of the official who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. In order to avenge her father and brother, she sold her body to seduce the enemy god of war and let the god of war avenge her. ”

"In that battle, millions of corpses were ambushed, blood flowed thousands of miles, and the royal family of the previous dynasty was almost slaughtered."

It also laid the groundwork for the fall of the previous dynasty.
