She made a point of mentioning the murderous blade, which seemed to be made of ice, and the remaining silver money was also a crucial clue.

The official of Dali Temple, after listening carefully to Xue Ning's narration, after thinking for a while, replied, "This case is really suspicious, just from the situation in front of you, it can't be concluded that the two of you are murder, if the old man's son is the real murderer, what he said cannot be used as evidence in court."

Come on, you should quickly send someone to investigate the movements of the victim's son involved in the case, and find a way to find out where the son went half a day before the crime?

There were guards with knives, who quickly received the command and went out to handle the case.

At this moment, someone in front of the hall announced, "My lord, the third elder brother has come to look for you." ”

When the officer heard this, he ordered the suspect to be sent back to prison.

"Come on, take the two suspects into prison temporarily, and make a decision after the investigation is clear. ”

Xue Ning and Zimo were escorted to retreat in the direction of the cell.

Before she walked away, Xue Ning vaguely saw a familiar figure appear in the hall where the case was being tried just now.

Immediately afterwards, a crisp shout came into Xue Ning's ears, although he had turned around and couldn't see the specific appearance of the person who came, but Xue Ning was sure that the young man who came was none other than the young man he met on the street.

In order to find out the purpose of the young man's coming, Xue Ning squatted down under the pretext that her feet hurt, and she hesitated and refused to leave.

With her keen hearing, she finally heard a little conversation between the boy and the official.

"Third Highness, what kind of wind blew you here?"

"Uncle, I have something important to negotiate with you. ”

"Huh, what's the matter?"

"Two of my best friends have been falsely accused of being murderers and imprisoned in your prison, and I beg you to release them......

When he was about to listen, the messenger had already urged Xue Ning loudly and impatiently, "Go quickly, don't be sluggish." Xue Ning had no choice but to stand up and continue walking, because the distance was so far away that she gradually couldn't hear the conversation between the young man and his uncle.

When it was evening, Xue Ning and Zimo were brought out of prison again.

At this point, both of them were shackled and led to another room that looked warm and full of books.

As soon as he walked into the room, the boy he had met on the street greeted him with a smile.

"Xue Ning, Zimo, the two of you were wronged, from now on you are free, I have asked my uncle to investigate the real murderer, it turns out that as you said, it was the old man's son who killed his father.

The people sent by my uncle found that the murderer had gone out to buy ice the night before, and that a large pool of water had been found at the head of the bed where he was sleeping, which seemed to have been left behind when the ice was melted at night to make a murderous blade.

And the main evidence is that in the process of investigating the murderer, the officer happened to catch the deceased's son entering and leaving the casino with the rest of the money, and when he was caught, he could not tell the source of the silver on his body.

Now, the real culprit who framed the two of you has been brought to justice by my uncle and thrown into prison. ”

After the young man finished speaking, another person walked into the hall, and Xue Ning and Zimo looked fixedly, it was the Dali Temple Qing that they had seen in the hall before.

It's just that at this moment, the official's face is no longer a majestic look, but replaced by kindness and apology.

"Two little dolls, the official almost wronged you, but fortunately, after careful investigation, it has been proved that the real murderer is someone else, so the two of you are acquitted. ”

When Xue Ning and Zimo heard this, they both jumped up happily.

"Great, great, we're finally free. After speaking, Xue Ning looked at the official-looking person and said, "Since we are free, we can leave now." ”

The official nodded and agreed to Xue Ning's request.

It's just that the young man who met by chance on the street, when he heard that Xue Ning and Zimo were about to leave, he said reluctantly, "Don't go, two, I heard my uncle say that you are separated from your relatives, and you have no place to stay for the time being, so let's go and live with me for a while before you find your relatives."

I have nothing to do in the palace, and the two of you can accompany me to learn some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting together. ”

Xue Ning heard that the young man was so hospitable and enthusiastic, and saw that he was really helpful, so she wanted to nod her head and agree.

But Zimo was full of fear and fear in his heart because he was imprisoned.

Recently, with the occurrence of one tragedy after another, he misses his hometown and his father who died in vain more and more, and now, there is only one thing in his heart, that is, to find Xue Ning's demon fox father as soon as possible, so that he can go to learn art together, and return to avenge his father's hatred.

"Xue Ning, I want to leave here, go to your father, and after meeting with his old man, we will go to the mountains to find the master to learn art.

I don't want to stay in the bustling city of Kyoto any longer. ”

As soon as the third elder brother next to him heard the words apprenticeship, he immediately became interested, "Okay, it turns out that the little brother is a studious sergeant, what is so difficult about apprenticeship, there are countless martial arts masters in the palace who can teach you martial arts, you can rest assured, you and Xue Ning will definitely make this trip worthwhile."

Besides, your lost relatives have not been found, so you are leaving in a hurry now, where to find your lost father and sister? The young man said solemnly.

The young man's words touched the sore spot of Xue Ning and Zimo, and after Xue Ning pondered for a while, she begged the young man, "It's naturally easy for us to stay with you, but you have to promise us to help us find our relatives." ”

"What's so difficult about this? My uncle is a Dali Siqing, and it is naturally easy for me to ask my uncle to send someone to find your relatives. ”

After saying that, the young man looked at his uncle and pleaded, "Uncle, will you help my two good friends?"

"Okay, tomorrow, I'll send someone to the suburbs to look for their relatives, but before I go, I need to find a painter to draw the portraits of their relatives. ”

"Okay, I'll take Xue Ning and Zimo back to the palace to find someone to paint, you are busy with official business here, we won't bother you, after I go back, I will let the two of them let the painter paint according to their memories, if the painting is finished, I will send someone to give it to you." ”

After speaking, the young man didn't shy away from suspicion, and pulled Xue Ning and Zimo affectionately to leave.

"Your Highness, I will send you away. The young man's uncle said with concern.

"No need, I came with a sedan chair, the three of us, just take my sedan chair and go back together." ”

After speaking, the young man got up and beckoned Xue Ning and Zimo to walk out with him, and the young man's uncle was respectful, sent the three of them outside the mansion, and witnessed them sit in a sedan chair before turning around and leaving.

Xue Ning and Zimo sat in such a high-end, luxurious and comfortable sedan chair for the first time, and they became a little unnatural and nervous for a while.

The young man sat in the sedan chair, and saw that the two of them were a little restrained, so he introduced himself with a smile, "Two, maybe you don't know my identity yet, I am the only one in the Forbidden City, born in the wind of the jade tree, and only eight years tall The third elder brother Chenhua, today I went into the city to wander around, and happened to meet the two of you in a cage, so I happened to save the two of you." ”

Xue Ning and Zimo couldn't help but be shocked and even more nervous when they heard that the young man had such a special identity.

"Third Elder Brother, are you the emperor's son?" Xue Ning asked timidly as she still knew some knowledge in the Terran Palace.

"Then when you grow up in the future, you will definitely succeed your father and become the Son of Heaven?" Zimo also asked half-understandingly.

"Not necessarily, my mother gave birth to a younger disciple for me, and my father and mother are very fond of this new brother, so maybe one day in the future, the matter of inheriting the great unification will fall on his head, and it is not known.

However, for me, I am not keen on being an emperor.

Oh, by the way, when I return to the palace, Zimo will accompany me to live in the Brother's Institute, and I will have time to read and write with me, dance with knives and make guns.

As for Xue Ning, you are a female streamer, and it is not very convenient to go to the elder brother's office.

In this way, wait for me to beg my mother, let her promise me, let you stay by her side and be a personal little palace maid, what do you think?

You are too young to do anything, and I will beg the queen mother to ask her to find her grandmothers to take care of you. ”

Xue Ning didn't understand the rules of the palace, and after hearing that Chenhua had arranged everything very properly, she had to nod obediently and promised, "Thank you Third Elder Brother for your help, Xue Ning and Zimo are grateful." ”

The three of them sat in the luxurious and spacious sedan chair for about a few hours, and when Xue Ning quietly opened the sedan curtain again to look out, she found that everyone had unknowingly come to the Forbidden City.

What greeted her eyes was the solemn and high palace wall, and what echoed in his ears was the respectful voice of the guards guarding the door.

The sedan chair first came to the palace where Chenhua's mother lived.

When they arrived at the queen's palace, the servants all retreated, and only Chenhua led Xue Ning and Zimo up to the palace.

The servants had already greeted him warmly and sent a message to the queen.

"The third elder brother has arrived!"

At this time, the queen had no time to answer, because she was in a hurry with her nursing mother and looked panicked to take care of her young son.

The grandmothers and palace maids in the palace also looked panicked, and hurriedly ran out, shouting loudly, "Go to Xuan Taiyi, go to Xuan Taiyi, the little brother suddenly fell ill and needs urgent treatment." ”

The three people who entered the hall learned that for some reason just now, Zijin was resting on the bed after eating the milk of his nursing mother, and suddenly his mood changed greatly and he began to cry.

The little guy was in a hurry and his nostrils and trachea were blocked by milk, and he couldn't breathe, so he turned his back in an instant, his face turned black, and the situation was dangerous.
