After redemption, he took away the luck of the future queen

Gu Jianxing saw Pian He out of the palace.

On the way, he told Pian He that Marquis Linjiang wanted to threaten him with Hu Shoufu and how he responded.

Pian He asked him: "My lord, are you really going to save the lives of everyone in Linjiang Hou Mansion for me?"

Pian He felt very curious. Judging from today's situation, Linjiang Houfu's suspicion was not high. Even if the things Linjiang Houfu had committed were added, Linjiang Hou should not be in danger of his life. At most, his life would be. The official position is not guaranteed.

"Well, the emperor is just using Linjiang Marquis to deal with Chang Xingbo. He has no intention of finding out who replaced the eldest prince. The emperor's purpose is just to use this incident to scare the tigers and scare the monkeys. After sending you back, I will go to the prison to see Marquis Linjiang."

The emperor knew who replaced the eldest prince.

It's just that it's not time to move the Queen Mother yet. In fact, part of the reason is that no conclusive evidence has been found, but this time, it is possible to extract the Queen Mother's teeth.

As the two of them talked, the carriage arrived at the corner outside Princess Wu'an's mansion, where Dashan was waiting.

Gu Jianxing got off the carriage and handed Pian Huan to Dashan.

Dashan sent Pian Huan back home.

Because I left the palace late, it was already dark when I returned to the mansion.

When Mrs. Huang saw Dashan sending Pian Huo back, she was not worried at all even though it was dark: "Pian Huan, you are back. How is Sanni?" She thought her daughter would not come back tonight and would stay there. Zhaizi looked at Sanni.

Dashan clenched his fists when his second aunt mentioned his sister Sanni.

The sound was a bit loud, and Mrs. Huang heard it. She hurriedly asked: "Da Shan, what's wrong with you?" She looked so bad.

Dashan's eyes wandered back and forth between Huang and Pianhan, and he said depressingly: "Second aunt, Sanni is getting engaged today to Wu Pingcheng, the concubine of the third wife of the Wu family."

After hearing this, Pian He was unable to complain.

What does Huang say? If Sanni is not engaged to Wu Pingcheng, is it possible that she can be engaged to someone else?

"Da Shan, it's getting late, haven't you had dinner yet? Second aunt ordered someone to prepare the meal. Don't leave after eating, just stay here for the night." Mrs. Huang didn't want to mention Sanni.

"If I can't meet my second aunt, I'll go back right away." As he spoke, Dashan was already walking away.

Pian He knew that Dashan had a special status and must be very busy recently, so he advised Huang not to keep him and let him go.

Here, after Gu Jianxing sent Pian He home, he first went back to Rongjun Prince's Mansion, changed into clean clothes, and then had dinner. He wanted to go to the prison to see Linjiang Marquis. Hou took some measures to make him live more comfortably in prison and express his sincerity.

In short, Linjiang Hou did not reveal anything about Pian He's father.

As soon as he left the house, he was stopped by someone. The person who came was Chang Xingbo's sister, Mrs. Tangge Lao.

At night, when he met Mrs. Tang who came to the door of Prince Rong's house, Gu Jianxing didn't feel much surprise or surprise. He immediately guessed why the other party came to see him.

Seeing that the other party was Mrs. Tangge, and out of respect for Mrs. Tangge, he wanted to invite Mrs. Tang into his house to talk.

But when he saw a slim and beautiful woman walking out of the carriage, he immediately changed his mind and asked Mrs. Tang: "Old Madam, I wonder why you came to the house tonight?"

Gu Jianxing asked knowingly.

The beautiful woman behind Mrs. Tang, Tang Muling, looked towards Prince Rong. Even the dim night could not hide the appearance of Prince Rong. He was so extraordinary that he had already fallen into her heart at a startling glance.

Mrs. Tang was so anxious that she didn't care whether she was outside the gate of Rongjun Prince's Mansion. She walked up and said directly: "Your Majesty, I came here to ask you to intercede for my eldest brother in front of the emperor. How dare you? I promise, eldest brother will never do something as treacherous as changing the eldest prince."

Gu Jianxing looked at Mrs. Tang, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a touch of sarcasm that was not easy to detect in the dim night, and said: "Old madam, you have asked the wrong person for this matter. I, the king..."

"Your Majesty, this is my true granddaughter. She is twenty-eight years old and is waiting to be married. As long as the prince is willing to intercede for my eldest brother in front of the emperor, I will give my granddaughter to Prince Rong as his concubine." Mrs. Tang said anxiously. Interrupting Gu Jianxing's words.

After saying that, she turned around, pulled her granddaughter over, and pushed her directly in front of Prince Rong.

Her granddaughter is Mr. Tangge's direct granddaughter, and she was given to Prince Rong as his concubine. This thought is enough. Mrs. Tang hopes that her granddaughter can impress Prince Rong.

Not only that, once Prince Rong and Prince Tang become in-laws, the Tang family will become Prince Rong's support. Prince Rong will definitely agree to such a good thing.

Tang Muling was pushed in front of Prince Rong by her grandmother, and her face turned red instantly. She really wanted to hear Prince Rong's response and said that she was willing to take her in, so she heard Prince Rong say: "Old lady, I have something to do and I have to go out." It’s just a one-time trip, but I won’t accompany you or see you off.”

Tang Muling raised his head in shock and looked at the back of Prince Rong as he quickly left with a look of astonishment.

"Your Majesty, why? Is it not enough that I am the granddaughter of a noble daughter from a noble family? Her talent and appearance are top-notch, and she is better than Princess Wu'an..."

Mrs. Tang did not give up and ran a few steps after Gu Jianxing.

As soon as she raised her head, she suddenly met Gu Jianxing's gaze as he turned around. With just one glance, she felt an inexplicable cool breeze blowing on her back. The words that came to her lips seemed to be stuck. Unable to speak, he suddenly stopped.

Tang Muling also saw the cold and stern eyes of Prince Rong in the night. They were so piercing and sarcastic, which made her want to die with shame and anger.

Seeing that the two of them were no longer talking, Gu Jianxing turned back, got on his horse, and rode towards the prison.

Half an hour later, Gu Jianxing arrived at the prison, turned over and dismounted, and just as he stepped into the prison, he bumped into the Dali Temple Qing Wen who hurriedly walked out of the prison.

Lord Wen's face turned pale when he saw Prince Rong. He hurriedly stepped forward and saluted and said, "Prince Rong, the Marquis of Linjiang just committed suicide out of fear of his crime. This is a blood confession."

Gu Jianxing looked shocked!

Linjiang Hou committed suicide out of fear of crime?

impossible!

"Bring it to me and show it to the king."

"Yes." Mr. Wen presented the blood letter with both hands.

Gu Jianxing took the blood book that was not completely dry and looked at it carefully.

What was written in the blood letter was that Marquis Linjiang admitted that he had replaced the eldest prince. He found a child from the Cui family, replaced the eldest prince, threw him into the water and drowned him.

It was such a short sentence and nothing else was said.

"Is the body of Marquis Linjiang still in the prison?" Gu Jianxing couldn't believe that the blood letter in his hand was written by Marquis Linjiang before he committed suicide.

"Here, I'll take Prince Rong in here and have a look." Mr. Wen's face was expressionless, and he felt that the matter was not simple.

Marquis Linjiang really wants to plead guilty and wants to think about the Cui family. Wouldn't it be better for him to plead guilty in front of the emperor? Why would he commit suicide out of fear of being punished after being sent to prison? It doesn't make sense.

"Let's go." Gu Jianxing returned the blood letter to Mr. Wen. He walked into the prison door first and heard a commotion behind him. He turned around, passed Mr. Wen, and saw a group of people striding towards this direction.

The Minister of Punishment, the Imperial Censor, and several elders, including Ling Ge, Yang Ge, and Tang Ge, all came. Ling Ge was Ding Guogong, and Tang Ge seemed to be among them.

Gu Jianxing's face darkened.
