Shengshichun

As soon as Zhang walked over, Yong Ping, who was staring at her back, suddenly rushed forward. Fortunately, Xu Yin was able to prevent her from going crazy, so he quickly pressed her down.

"What are you doing?!" Xu Yin scolded.

Yongping looked at him angrily and suddenly reached out and slapped him.

The crisp applause attracted the attention of most people in the mourning hall.

Zhang turned around, walked up to them, looked at the two of them with a cold face and said: "General Pingxi has been ordered to lead his troops to reinforce and defend the palace. Every move in the palace may be transmitted to the palace through him.

"Although you are no longer the princess of the palace, your surname is still Yang, and you are the aunt of our palace who married into the palace. I advise you to remember your identity and stop causing trouble to everyone!"

Yong Ping pointed at her and said sternly: "Ms. Zhang, did you have a share in the death of my mother and concubine? Did you lead the wolf into the house as the person who killed my mother and concubine?"

Zhang's face sank, and she glanced at Xu Yin: "Shilang Xu knows what to do, right?"

Xu Yin took a deep breath: "Prince Princess, don't worry."

Zhang left.

Xu Yin turned to look at Yongping, grabbed her wrist, and dragged her to a deserted area outside the door.

"I'm warning you, don't be stupid again! If you do this again, I will report it to the emperor and lock you up forever!"

Yongping gritted his teeth, raised his hand and slapped him again!
But this time she didn't succeed, Xu Yin grabbed her hand: "Aside from being silly, do you do anything else?!"

Yong Ping gritted his teeth and said: "You killed my concubine! She was looking for that fan for you, that's why she died, right?!"

Her flaming eyes fell directly on Xu Yin's face, and she wished she could eat him!
Xu Yin put down his hand: "Yes."

Before Yongping took action, he continued: "If you don't want to die, you should become smarter from now on. You should know what you should know and what you should not know."

Yongping suddenly shuddered and took half a step back.

"You're a devil, you're a devil!"

She squatted down holding her head and let out a heart-rending howl.

Xu Yin looked deeply: "You should stay away from me from the beginning. Entering the devil's cave is also your fate."

After saying that, he turned around and looked at Lianyuan in the corner ahead: "Take the wife down, she is too sad, let her have a good rest."

When Lianchun arrived, he lifted his feet and left the place.

When he crossed the Aquarius Gate, a servant bumped into him. Before he could apologize, he slapped him loudly on the face!

"Things with no eyes!"

No one has ever seen such a ferocious side of the gentle and jade-like Minister Xu. The servant was so panicked that he knelt down in panic!
Xu Yin's expression showed no signs of restraint as he stepped onto the verandah with his face covered in frost.

Where Yongping is around, he has no time to worry!
The news that the emperor had sent people from the five generals' palaces to guard the four city gates had reached his ears. He thought he was smart, but he couldn't understand what the emperor was trying to do?
But what made him even more unsure was that the emperor also asked Pei Zhan to lead his army into Prince Rong's Mansion!

At first glance, this is the emperor's favor to Prince Rong, but if the person who was lurking in the ancestral hall and took the fan was Pei Zhan, would the emperor's move mean that the fan that Pei Zhan had taken away had been In the hands of the emperor?
If this is the case, then did Pei Zhan lurk in the ancestral hall because of the emperor's instructions?

Cold sweat broke out on Xu Yin's back.

"Master," Lianyuan followed from behind, "I gave my wife some tranquilizing medicine and she has been taken away to rest."

Xu Yin asked him: "Has the Pei family not decided anything yet?"

"The Pei family has always been very tight. I'm afraid it will take some time."

"Work harder!"

Xu Yin said solemnly.

With Pei Zhan's arrival, this guess must be clarified as soon as possible.

As soon as he finished speaking, another person hurriedly walked out from the other end of the corridor: "Your Majesty is in the attic, please go and have a chat with Mr. Xu immediately!"

Xu Yin turned his head, his gaze paused for a moment before he responded: "I know."

……

The funeral in the palace was originally held in the Guiyuan Building near the ancestral temple. It happened that Princess Rong died here, so standing on the Guiyuan Building, I could have a panoramic view of everything downstairs and the ancestral temple.

After Pei Zhan brought the people in, he immediately asked the steward to bring the layout of the northwest corner of the palace, and dispersed the 100 troops he brought with him at various points to serve as sentries.

After the arrangements were made, Yang Zhan accompanied Pei Zhan to another place to have tea and rest.

King Rong stood in the attic window, worry already appearing on his face.

When Xu Yin came up, he turned around when he heard footsteps.

"It's been three days and one day has passed. Maybe what you said has come true?"

Xu Yin lowered his head: "Only one day has passed in three days, and the prince is too impatient."

"How can I not be in a hurry?" King Rong slammed the table, "The worst decision I made in my life was to lure you into the house!"

Xu Yin raised his head: "What's the benefit of saying something like this now? No matter how hard the prince forces me, I can't find out, and I still can't find out."

"If you can't find out, let the Liang family deal with you!" King Rong looked under the window and said, "All the soldiers and horses from the Gyeonggi camp have been stationed in, and the one leading the army below is Pei Zhan! Do you think, if He knows that you are the real culprit who killed Liang Ning, how long will it take for this to reach Liang Chen’s ears?"

Xu Yin said: "Is the prince going to break the jar?"

King Rong pursed his lips and looked at him with slightly narrowed eyes, his face as tense as iron.

"Having said that," Xu Yin said again, "then I dare to ask, why did the Crown Prince assassinate the man in Baiyu Alley back then?"

King Rong's eyes suddenly opened angrily: "I said, that was manslaughter!"

"Then let me ask another question. Is this the person who the prince hid the evidence for defense?"

Xu Yin said and wrote a word in the palm of his hand.

King Rong gritted his teeth, looked at him gloomily for a moment, and said, "Xu Yin, sooner or later you will be too clever to be clever."

Xu Yin twitched the corner of his mouth: "I just feel that the prince and I are already on the same line at this moment. There is no need to hide some words. "Anyway, I have the murder case of the princess in the hands of the prince. , I have no way out, what are you afraid of?

"Because of the murder in Baiyu Alley, you and I have been tightly bound together. Even if I didn't kill the princess, you would never let me get away, right?
"When you finally agreed to marry Yongping to me, didn't you also have the intention of tying me to Prince Rong's palace?"

King Rong sat down on the chair with a deep look: "Why are you telling me this?
"I know you've always been eloquent, but you can't even think of playing tricks in front of me. You can fool the princess, but you can never succeed with me!
"The three-day period given to you will not be relaxed for a moment. Once the time is up and I don't have the things in hand, if you break into the ancestral temple and kill the princess, I will definitely report it to the palace.

"Don't even think about threatening me with that fan. Although I must get those things back to be safe, but looking at it on the other hand, the things are no longer in my hands, and no one can prove what I did.

"Even if it is exposed to the sun, I can still tell that person that all this has nothing to do with me. No matter how courageous he is, he will never be able to blatantly touch me at this time.

"Put away those thoughts of yours and be honest if you want to survive!"

As the words fell, King Rong banged the table again.

Xu Yin looked at the cup that jumped up after being slapped and rolled on the table, and slowly bit his lower lip.

……

Xu Yin stepped out of Guiyuan Tower with his front foot, and quickly followed him with his back foot.

"Your Majesty, are you putting pressure on me again?"

Xu Yin had a gloomy face and said nothing.

Lian Ruan was silent for a moment and then said: "Why don't you tell the prince that the fan may have fallen into Pei Zhan's hands?"

"What will he do after telling him?" Xu Yin turned around fiercely, "Is he doing worse than Pei Zhan? There are only two results after telling him! One is that he can't bear the consequences and takes the initiative to go to the palace to confess his crime, and the other is to drag out a Here comes the scapegoat!
"No matter how good his attitude is in confessing this matter, the palace will definitely be damaged even if it is not destroyed! Is he willing to risk it? If he is willing, he doesn't have to hide it in fear until now!

"And if he doesn't do this, he must find a way to prevent Pei Zhan from suing him. The best preventive strategy is to push the Zhang family or me out as a scapegoat! If the Zhang family is pushed out, Liang Ning's matter will be I can’t hide it! I’m also dead!”

He spoke very softly, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

Lian Ran's face suddenly became solemn: "So, not only can this matter not be told, but it also needs to be concealed?"

Xu Yin took a deep breath: "Never pin your life on others. King Rong has absolutely no ability to fight Pei Zhan."

"But if the fan is in Pei Zhan's hand, he should have handed it over by now, right? Why is there no movement?"

"That must be because they are not sure about the identity of the deceased yet." Xu Yin gritted his teeth, "How can it be so easy for them to know this secret? It is really so easy. Prince Rong and his son have worked hard all these years!"

Lian Ruan frowned: "But if they didn't know the identity of the deceased, how could they know the fan? How could they get the dagger?"

Xu Yin was asked.

After a while, he responded slowly: "This is exactly what I still can't understand.

"But you reminded me that Pei Zhan came to the palace this time just to test things out."

"This is a bit troublesome," Lian Chang also felt anxious. "Since we can't tell the prince this guess, we will certainly not be able to get the fan back from Pei Zhan. So how will we report it to the prince when the three days are up?

"Looking at this situation, the prince said that he would sue me for trespassing into the main temple and killing the princess. It didn't sound like a threat. In this way, he was very passive."

Xu Yin was poked into a sore spot.

He took two quick steps, then stopped and gritted his teeth: "Mountains can't change, rivers can't change! I'm a big living person, how can I let myself suffocate myself to death? If he doesn't give me a way to survive, I will have to find a way to survive on my own!"

He raised his head repeatedly: "Master?..."

Under the deep night, Xu Yin was originally in darkness, but the corridor lamp above gave him a beam of light that shone down from his forehead, eyebrows, and eyes, making him look as gloomy as expected. Hell devil.

……

Last time, Yang Zhan was severely beaten by Pei Zhan and his wife. Why didn't he feel resentful in his heart?
But this time Pei Zhan came under an order, and he was the young master of Prince Rong's palace. He couldn't do it without coming out to receive him, so he had to forcefully wipe this incident away first.

After letting Pei Zhan go to the small courtyard near Guiyuan Building, he first served him some tea and water, and then said sadly:
"The palace has suffered a sudden great change, and I feel ashamed that I bothered the general to personally lead his troops to protect him. This Jingming Pavilion was set aside for the general to temporarily handle military affairs. The inner wing has also been tidied up, and all furniture and appliances are complete. The general is ready to rest when he is tired."

Pei Zhan glanced at him: "My condolences, Your Majesty."

Yang Zhan lowered his head and cupped his hands, shook his head and sighed, wiping the corners of his eyes. "My mother has always been happy to do good, and be kind to others. Who would have thought that she would suffer such evil retribution today? It is really unfair from God!"

Pei Zhan said: "I heard that there was a lot of noise that night. Our families are not far apart. The prince was in trouble, so why didn't he send a message home? The Pei family doesn't have any other skills, like fighting. But there is no shortage of people.”

Speaking of which, Pei Zhan and Fu Zhen are indirectly taking the blame. Princess Rong was obviously pushed to the sword of the palace guard by Xu Yin himself and used as a shield to be stabbed to death. However, Prince Rong's palace said that Princess Rong was killed by an assassin. , who is this assassin talking about?

Is it Xu Yin or the two of them?

Even if King Rong didn't know that it was him, Pei Zhan, who took away the fan, Pei Zhan would not be angry at being dragged away.

So even though he didn't know why the emperor sent him to lead troops to Prince Rong's Mansion, he still came without asking a word.

"It was already such a mess, how could we care about this?"

The word "fight" immediately made Yang Zhan's face twitch...

……

Pei Zhan and the others were all on errands, so only Fu Zhen took Liang Xuan to Wanbin Tower for dinner.

After dinner, Fu Zhen sent Yang Tong to take Liang Xuan to play, and then told Mrs. Ning everything about Prince Rong's Mansion upstairs.

"Is Princess Rong really killed by Xu Yin?"

Mrs. Ning could not hide her shock.

"It's absolutely true." Fu Zhen said slowly, and her voice was extremely cold, "He only wants what he wants, and what he doesn't want, he will never be merciful when he does it."

Mrs. Ning clenched her hands tightly and said bitterly: "Although Princess Rong is not a good person, she is his mother-in-law after all. He can send her to die in a second thought. How can a person be so gentle on the surface?" , but are you so cruel in private?"

Fu Zhen sat still for a while and said, "Probably, he was born without a heart."

When Mrs. Ning heard this, she looked at her with emotion. After a moment, she couldn't bear to look away and asked, "Tell me about what you found. Where is the fan?"

Fu Zhen took out the fan and said, "Look at the phoenix engraved on this fan. Is it the same as the phoenix in the letter that my grandfather left you?"

Mrs. Ning looked at it carefully and her breath started to rise: "It's the same, it's the same! But what does this veil with the word '奕' embroidered on it mean?"
