Zhou Junlin lowered his eyes and looked at the corpse on the ground, with a cold tone in his eyes.

As a guard, he shouldn't have left anything to prove his identity, but he hid it so carefully...

Zhou Junlin retracted his gaze and said, "Let's burn them together."

Gu Ha responded, stuffed the underwear into Shu Fengli's arms again, and ordered people to carry the body away.

"Has Mrs. E been found?"

"I am reporting to you that Madam E returned home early in the morning."

Zhou Junlin was somewhat surprised: "Alone?"

"Yes, Madam E came back in her best attire, carrying a plaque herself, beating gongs and drums along the way."

"What plaque?"

Gu Ha said: "Write a letter titled "The Injustice Never Exonerates Me" and ask the prince and princess to seek justice for the governor of E and clear his name in public in front of the palace gate."

Zhou Junlin suddenly laughed: "This is putting me on the spot. This way, the people will know that I came here specifically for the case of Governor E. Since I live in the Governor E's mansion without any suspicion, it means that I believe Governor E was wronged... Hehe, the person who gave me this advice really has good intentions~"

"Your Highness means... His Royal Highness King Qing?"

Zhou Junlin snorted coldly and gritted his teeth: "Who else could it be except my good uncle?"

Gu Ha asked in confusion: "But isn't the poetry book in Yinhuan's hands? Why do we have to start with Madam E?"

Zhou Junlin stared deeply, "Have you ever thought about why the Liguan Sect's defense map was lost together with the Hongwang's poetry book? What's interesting is that the poetry book is actually in the hands of Governor E. Does he really have such a great ability to steal it from the Ministry of Justice? Everything... is too logical."

Just like it was foreshadowed.

-

Song Lianhe was awakened by the sound of gongs and drums.

"Who is setting off firecrackers outside so early in the morning?"

Daxi helped her change her clothes and said, "It's Madam E who is back."

"Mrs. E? Why did you come back by yourself?"

She quickly put on her clothes and hurried out of the yard.

It was so lively outside the gate of E's mansion, surrounded by people from Li Zongguan. But a very tall woman, dressed in foreign clothes, stood straight in front of the mansion gate.

E Jintang stood behind his mother, carrying a plaque with the words "No Injustice Can Be Redressed" on it.

"Jin Tang!"

Song Lianhe was too embarrassed to call his son "nephew and great-nephew" in front of the other person's mother.

She ran over and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Aunt!"

E Jintang smiled and waved to her.

Song Lianhe: "..."

You don't have to be so enthusiastic.

At this time, Mrs. E slowly turned her head.

Unlike the embarrassed and confused look when they first met, Mrs. E was now dignified and beautiful, with a stern and sharp gaze.

She recognized Song Lianhe.

However, he said nothing and turned his head away.

Song Lianhe, on the other hand, felt a little guilty.

"Your Highness, please redress the injustice done to my governor!"

"Your Highness, please redress my father's injustice!"

The mother and son shouted over and over again, attracting pointing and talking from those who were watching the fun.

Song Lianhe observed carefully that the people still felt sorry for the governor of E.

In the final analysis, it was because Governor E treated the people well when he was in office. Even though there were all kinds of unbearable things said about him in his later years, most of the people were clear-minded, especially those who had received his kindness. Now they could not stand it anymore and stepped forward to raise their arms and shout:

"Your Highness, please ask Prince Ling to redress the injustice for the governor!"

This call can be said to have received a hundred responses.

"Your Highness, please ask Prince Ling to redress the injustice for the governor!"

"Your Highness, please ask Prince Ling to redress the injustice for the governor!"

Mrs. E was still standing straight. She and E Jintang were both tall, and were particularly eye-catching in the crowd. At this moment, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and her voice was loud, vowing to clear the injustice for her husband and father!

The scene before her made Song Lianhe feel a little moved.

The mother and son's persistence, built up with countless despair, carries with it a sense of brokenness that comes with a desperate gamble.

Because no matter what the outcome is, that person is no longer here.

In the mansion, Song Xilan did not sleep all night.

As long as she closed her eyes, she would see the full moon with blood on its face, wailing and reaching out to her for help.

"Miss, please save me! I'm in so much pain!"

"Miss...I am doing this all for you..."

"Miss, how could you be so cruel and not save me... It's so cold here, I feel so lonely alone..."

"Miss, would you please come down and accompany this servant?"

Song Xilan seemed to be awake from a dream, and struggled to get up from the couch, "Man Yue...tea..."

But after calling for a long time, only a strange face came forward, "Princess, tea."

She took it and drank the whole cup before asking, "Where's Man Yue?"

The little maid looked embarrassed: "Sister Manyue, she..."

The picture in my mind gradually became clearer. Man Yue was covered in blood, lying alone on the straw mat.

She is dead.

Song Xilan just felt a headache. She stroked her forehead, drank her tea, and then lay down again.

At this time, someone else came to report: "Princess, Madam E is outside the mansion, she wants to see you..."

"not see."

Song Xilan was in a bad mood and didn't want to see anyone.

"But……"

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? Get out!" Song Xilan had never been so angry before.

"Yes Yes."

The maids all retreated.

The room returned to silence.

There was a snake plague last night, she fell into the water several times, and there was also Man Yue’s death. Song Xilan was in a daze and her mind was in a mess.

There seemed to be several voices arguing in my ears, among which there was occasionally a gloomy voice, saying over and over again: "You are the heroine, you are the heroine..."

Song Xilan's headache became even worse, and she immediately pulled the quilt up to cover her head.

Outside the gate of the E Mansion, even though Mrs. E's voice was a little hoarse, no one came out.

The sun rose higher and higher. E Jintang was carrying the plaque, sweating profusely. He kept wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

At this time, someone quietly handed over a piece of silk scarf.

He was stunned and looked at Daxi.

Da Xi gestured to wipe his sweat, then returned to Song Lianhe.

Song Lianhe frowned, and in her ears she heard Madam E's voice, "Your Highness, please redress the grievances for me!"

The people also felt indignant and said that Mrs. E was too pitiful.

Song Lianhe clenched her fists and looked towards the door where there was no more movement. She couldn't bear to listen any longer and suddenly raised her hand: "I'll do it!"

Everyone around was shocked by her loud shout and looked at her.

Mrs. E slowly turned her head.

Xuan Mei and Da Xi both sighed at the same time.

I'm still so impatient.

Song Lianhe lifted her skirt and walked up the steps, then turned to face the crowd, raised her chin, and said word by word: "This plaque, this princess accepts it."

There was an uproar all around.

"She claims to be a princess... Could she be Princess Ling?"

Xuan Mei immediately stepped forward, also holding up the plaque with one hand, then stood beside her, showing the four words "沉怨莫白" to everyone.

Madam E stared at Song Lianhe in a daze, then suddenly knelt down, bowed deeply, and kowtowed to the ground: "I, your humble servant, thank you, Princess Qing!"
