After returning from rebirth, the eldest sister of Hou family destroyed her household registration b

"Xiao Jinzhi!" Chu Huanyan subconsciously spoke and called Xiao Jinzhi.

In front of everyone, if Xiao Jinzhi really impulsively attacks Xiao Rongxuan, who knows what rumors will spread.

Although Xiao Rongxuan's neck was pinched, the proud look on his face became more intense.

"This is an order given by the emperor himself. The emperor probably wouldn't want to openly disobey the imperial edict in front of so many people."

"You can try it alone." Xiao Jinzhi's eyebrows were cold.

"Oh, it seems that Miss Chu is indeed the emperor's favorite, but I don't know if Miss Chu is willing to let the emperor be so reckless for her." Xiao Rongxuan glanced at Chu Huanyan out of the corner of his eye, with a sense of gloating, and seemed to be convinced of Xiao's misfortune. Jinzhi would never break his neck just like that.

Feeling Xiao Rongxuan's gaze, Chu Huanyan frowned and said to Xiao Jinzhi: "Your Highness, I have a clear conscience about this matter. Since the third prince wants to investigate, I will cooperate. I also believe... …We will definitely be able to find out the truth and restore my innocence.”

"Yan Yan..." Xiao Jinzhi's eyebrows were almost twisted together, and her peach blossom eyes were overflowing with worry.

Even if he could find a way to rescue Yan Yan later, he couldn't watch Yan Yan being taken away by Xiao Rongxuan.

He was careless. He asked Yun Chen to return to the imperial city. He originally thought that he was the best person to temporarily protect Yan Yan, but he ignored Yun Chen's identity.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Chu Huanyan looked at him seriously, with a smile on her lips, "I like the cloak you gave me very much, but it's a little old. I'm still waiting for you to give me a new one when it snows first this year. Of."

"Okay, not only the cloak, but also everything you want in the future, I will give it to you." Xiao Jinzhi said in response.

"Okay, don't act affectionate here." Xiao Rongxuan broke away from Xiao Jinzhi's hand, stepped back and distanced himself, and looked at him coldly, "If the emperor doesn't dare to take action, don't delay me here. My brother is on the case."

After the words fell, Xiao Rongxuan glanced at the guards behind him, and then left with them in a swaggering manner.

Watching Chu Huanyan and Yun Chen being taken away, Qin Li followed him with an anxious look on his face.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Xiao Jinzhi stood there with his eyes fixed, and after a moment he said: "Go to Ning'an Hou Mansion."

"Your Highness, the Emperor should still be waiting for you. If you don't go directly..."

"Do you think it's just Xiao Rongxuan who wants to attack Yan Yan?" Xiao Jinzhi interrupted Qin Li.

"Your Highness, you mean...the Emperor can't hold it any longer?"

"The person who really wants to be alone is not just Xiao Rongxuan." Xiao Jinzhi took a deep breath, with a rare solemn look on his face.

If they just wanted to temporarily arrest Yan Yan and threaten him, they would just repay it, but according to Emperor Xiao's methods and calculations, since they pushed Xiao Rongxuan to come forward, the order they gave would definitely cost Yan Yan's life.

If Xiao Rongxuan really succeeds, it will give him a fatal blow, and he can watch the fire from the other side.

He couldn't delay any longer, Yan Yan couldn't tolerate any surprises.

He rode his horse and rushed to the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion. At the gate of the mansion, he happened to meet Xianyue, who had been ordered by Chu Huanyan to go to the shop to get the account book.

Hearing that Chu Huanyan had been arrested, Xian Yue suddenly panicked and quickly grabbed Qin Li to ask about the situation.

Xiao Jinzhi did not give Qin Li time to answer and went directly into the Ning'an Hou Mansion.

"Your Highness, what should we do with the young lady? Nothing will really happen to her, right?" Xian Yue eagerly followed Xiao Jinzhi who entered Chu Huanyan's courtyard.

Xiao Jinzhi did not answer, but asked: "Where is the cloak?"

"Cloak?" Xianyue was stunned for a moment, unable to react in time.

"It's the cloak that Gu gave to Yan Yan. Where is it now?"

Xianyue finally reacted and said quickly: "It's in the box in the room. The lady cherishes it very much. After the spring warmed up, she asked the slave to put it in."

"Find it out." Xiao Jinzhi said immediately.

Seeing Xiao Jinzhi's serious expression, Xian Yue did not dare to neglect, and quickly went to the room and found the cloak in the box.

"Your Highness, why are you suddenly looking for a cloak?" Qin Li stood beside Xiao Jinzhi, a little confused.

The top priority now is to save Miss Chu. At this time, why did His Highness come looking for some kind of cloak?

"Yan Yan suddenly mentioned the cloak just now. Don't you think it's a little strange?" Xiao Jinzhi's eyes darkened slightly.

Qin Li was stunned for a moment, then said: "Your Highness, do you mean to say that Miss Chu did it on purpose? She was passing on a message to you."

Xianyue had already walked out quickly with the cloak. Xiao Jinzhi did not continue to speak, but took the cloak and began to examine it carefully.

When he touched something hidden inside the cloak, Xiao Jinzhi paused, then asked Qin Li for the dagger, and carefully opened the stitches.

"This is the evidence that Miss found." After seeing what was hidden in the cloak, Xian Yue spoke quickly.

"I didn't expect Miss Chu to hide the evidence in this cloak." Qin Li suddenly realized, no wonder His Highness came to check the cloak.

His Highness guessed this based on Miss Chu's words, and he really had a close connection with Miss Chu, but...

"Your Highness, even if you get this evidence, how should you use it? Miss Chu finally convinced the emperor that the evidence had been taken away by the third prince. You can't threaten the emperor with this evidence rashly."

What's more, he was taken away by the third prince. If he knew that the evidence he had worked so hard to obtain was false and that he was deceived by Miss Chu, he would be angry and jealous, and he would not let Chu go. Miss.

Xiao Jinzhi held the evidence with a deep look on his face, "Of course this thing cannot be used directly to threaten Emperor Xiao, but... it can be used for other purposes."

Xiao Rongxuan's current appearance clearly meant that he and Emperor Xiao had temporarily reached a cooperation. If this was the case, then he would let their cooperation fall apart from the beginning.

……

On the other side, the prison of the Ministry of Punishment.

Since it was a case of interrogating a traitor, Xiao Rongxuan could not put Chu Huanyan in the private prison of the Third Prince's Mansion, but Dali Temple was Xiao Jinzhi's territory, so he had no choice, so in the end he chose the Criminal Department. .

"This must be Miss Chu's first time in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, right?" Xiao Rongxuan looked at Chu Huanyan through the cell door.

"No," Chu Huanyan looked around and said calmly, "It's just that before, I was the one standing outside."

Xiao Rongxuan sneered, "So things are really changing."

Chu Huanyan glanced at Xiao Rongxuan and said with a smile: "The third prince said this, aren't you afraid that in a few days, the feng shui will transfer you to this prison?"

Xiao Rongxuan hummed nonchalantly, "I am not as stupid as you. You actually harbor a traitor. You are really rushing to get the clues in front of me."

The smile on Chu Huanyan's face faded a bit.

At this moment, there were only her and Xiao Rongxuan here. Seeing that Xiao Rongxuan was so sure, she was too lazy to continue to deny anything.

"How did the third prince know Yun Chen's identity?"
