Tell me, who is the child?

"This morning, the Holy Majesty and the Queen came to the Prince's Mansion to enjoy the flowers. An actor in the Prince's room suddenly discovered that the Prince had hidden a dragon robe, and searched it from the bedroom on the spot. It is said that the craftsmanship of the dragon robe was Rui Fulin's technique. , and it was delivered by Mr. Du himself under the cover of the singer's costume. The Holy Order ordered a thorough investigation, and all the people involved in the case were imprisoned, including the crown prince, even..." Han Mengliu looked pitiful.

Li Yi fell back into the chair with a "thump", feeling like a knife was twisting her heart.

Juniper, and their baby who was only a few months old...

"It's absolutely impossible for Duke Tumu to make a dragon robe. This is a false accusation!"

"Of course it's a false accusation. I've inquired, and the case has gone through a trial. The crown prince can't reveal the source of the dragon robe, and no one in Rui Fulin can prove that it's not his own technique. Anyone who wants to do this game must have a perfect plan, Du It is really difficult for the young master and his family to escape."

"Who cares?" Li Yi was completely confused, "Who wants to harm him? He has only been an official for two months, who can he offend?"

"Why don't you understand? It's clear that people with ulterior motives for the reserve framed the crown prince and took advantage of Mr. Du. I thought that they would use me to deal with the crown prince when I entered the palace as an official. Thinking that it was Mr. Du who was finally dragged into the water." Han Mengliu stroked his forehead and sighed, his deep and tired eyes suddenly burst out with cruelty, "I will never bear to waste hundreds of lives just to reserve positions."

Li Yi was surprised, and Han Mengliu, who was filled with righteous indignation every word, made him feel strange.

"Brother Li, I came to you today because I wanted to save Mr. Du and..." Han Mengliu's eyes flashed, "I alone can't do enough. Of course, this is a matter of life and death. You have to think twice, even if you can't help... "

"I'll help." Li Yi interrupted Han Mengliu resolutely, and solemnly clasped her fists, "Brother Han, I believe in you, and I will be at your disposal from now on."

Han Mengliu's heart skipped a beat, and he put one hand on Li Yi's shoulder.Li Yi looked at his night clothes again, "What are your plans now?"

"If you want to reverse the case, you must get more clues as soon as possible. Tonight, you and I will sneak into the prison of Dali Temple to meet Mr. Du, listen to him explain the matter clearly, and then collect evidence to find loopholes."

"Evidence? You mean..."

Han Mengliu showed a "that's it" expression, and Li Yi couldn't believe it: "These two things are as difficult as heaven, you..."

Han Mengliu smiled, "I have learned a lot, and it just comes in handy at this time. Originally, I could do it by myself, but seeing Young Master Du, I still have to do it myself."

After three o'clock, Li Yi changed into night clothes for the first time in 21 years since she was born.

In the dark of night, Han Mengliu took him over the high wall of Dali Temple, deftly avoiding the soldiers on watch, and Li Yi's heart was in a turbulent state.He knew that Han Mengliu would do a lot, but he still couldn't imagine why he would do this? !

"This case involves a lot of things. To prevent collusion, the detention and interrogation are separated. The crown prince is in the Donei prison, Du Gongzi is in the Dali Temple, and the rest of the Du family are in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice and some in the prison of the government office. I am afraid that Du The young master does not know the situation at home."

Thinking of juniper wind, Li Yi felt extremely uncomfortable. At this time, she could only forcefully suppress it and try to keep calm.

At the corner of the prison door, Han Mengliu took out two pieces that looked like flint and rubbed them against each other, and the white light suddenly prevailed, making people unable to open their eyes, and everything around them could not be seen.

"Brother Han, this is..."

"Escape technique." Han Mengliu pulled Li Yi into the white light.Li Yi watched in horror as Han Mengliu took out the key from the two guards who were clearly standing with their eyes open, and easily opened the door and walked in.Then he wiped the stone again, and in the white light, the guards and prisoners in the prison were all stunned.

"Brother Li, you must not talk to those who have practiced the technique, or they will wake up. Although this escape technique is powerful, it can only last for a quarter of an hour. I will see Mr. Du later, so I must act quickly."

Li Yi nodded vigorously, thinking that this is not an escape technique, it is obviously a magic spell!Today is an eye-opener, I don't think there are such mysterious and mysterious things in the world!

In the corridor of the prison, the smell of dampness and decay came to the nostrils, and Li Yi had a thought: "Brother Han, since they are all fainted, why don't you..."

"The key to the cell is not on the guard, otherwise there will be many hidden dangers." Han Mengliu knew what Li Yi wanted to say, "Besides, even if we rescue Mr. Du, there is still a big family in Du's house. Even if we rescued the whole family, we can't What is the use of getting rid of the crime?"

"Yes," Li Yi sighed, "I'm short-sighted, talking nonsense."

Han Mengliu smiled comfortingly: "Brother Li is not short-sighted, but cares and chaotic."

Li Yi was taken aback, caring... would cause chaos?

"arrive."

With one word, Li Yi Piaoyuan's sanity was pulled back, and he took a closer look, behind the iron pillar prison door, a man in dirty prison clothes with disheveled hair hugged his knees and huddled in a corner.Although his head was hanging down and his face could not be seen, he knew that it was Juniper Wind.

Stepping forward and lying on the cell door, Li Yi called softly: "Du... Tumu Gong, Tumu Gong..."

Juniper Feng seemed to be awakened from sleep, he raised his heavy head slowly, opened his shy eyes, and looked around absently.It must be a dream, otherwise how could it be blank? It must be a dream, so he could see two people who would never appear here anyway, and they were dressed in strange clothes.

It's nothing more than dreaming about Mr. Han, but why did he dream about... Li Yi.

"Mr. Tumu, Mr. Tumu, wake up!" Li Yi anxiously shook her hands outside the cell, "Did you see me? I am, I am Li Tai!"

Juniper Feng was still bewildered.

"Master Du, this is my escape technique, everything in front of you is real, come here!" Han Mengliu said.

Juniper froze for a moment, rolled his eyes, and tried to pinch himself, um, it hurts.So this...wasn't a dream?

"Mr. Tumu, it's not too late, come here quickly!" Li Yi was in a hurry.

Juniper shuddered, and finally found himself a little bit. He stood up abruptly, his legs gave way and almost fell, and then staggered forward.Li Yi was terrified to see it, and as soon as Juniper rushed to the door of the cell, he held his hand.

Inside and outside the cell, fingers clasped together, staring at each other.

"You, why did you come here? What's going on around here..."

When they got closer, Li Yi could see more clearly Juniper's dusty face and black eyes full of innocence and grievance, and twisted together fiercely, "It all depends on Brother Han's ability, don't talk about it now that there is not much time left!" Nonsense, tell us everything you know verbatim, remember, verbatim!"

"I, I don't know how this happened..."

Jun Junfeng pursed his lips, and recounted everything that had happened since he entered the general prison with aggrievedness. After speaking, he stared blankly at Li Yi, who also stared deeply at him.

Hearing what he said, it seemed that disasters had come from ignorance and unconsciousness, and no flaws could be found.

Han Mengliu thought about it: "Young Master Du, tell me about the matter between you and Tan Ting again carefully."

Li Yi was taken aback, and Jun Feng was even more surprised, "Mr. Han suspects Big Brother Tan? It's impossible, he treats me..." Halfway through the conversation, he suddenly cut off, and the past scenes rushed into his mind: Tan Ting was nice to him for no reason, The official duties assigned to him are also clothing making, and he is required to give full play to his expertise.He considered that his hard work might be beneficial for Rui Fulin to become an imperial merchant in the future, so he didn't deliberately conceal his family's skills.Tan Ting occasionally asked about some unimportant techniques, so he just said it.Now that I think about it, some of Tan Ting's words seem to have more meaning, and the sad look in his eyes when he was taken away...

However, just by seeing the ready-to-wear and occasionally watching him guide the craftsmen, and occasionally asking one or two questions, it should not be possible to make the exact same Rui Fulin technique in such a short period of time.If it is really done, then this person's talent can be described as amazing.

And I always feel that Tan Ting is a good person, so he probably wouldn't do this.And even if he did it, what good would he get?

After speaking intermittently, Jun Feng looked at Han Mengliu hesitantly, "Young Master Han, you plan to..."

"Young Master Du, to be honest, Tan Ting is the most suspicious, but the facts still need to be verified, so don't worry."

Jun Feng lowered his head, and what he saw was his tightly clasped hands with Li Yi.It wasn't until this moment that he suddenly felt the strength and warmth of these hands. Suddenly, his heart felt very stuffy and sour.

"Mr. Han, brother Li..." Jun Songfeng whispered, "I am grateful for your coming today. But this matter is too dangerous, so don't run away for me again. If you are destined to die like this, run away But I just can't escape. I just hope that I have something, my father... and the child, Brother Li," lowering his head even lower, "The child will be yours..."

"If you say you are stupid, you are really stupid."

Li Yi interrupted him, still mocking, but her tone was full of reluctance and tenderness.

"Since you know that this matter is very serious, don't you know that it has reached the point where you can't solve it with your own life alone? Now that Rui Fulin has been seized, and everyone in the Du family has been imprisoned..."

"What?!" Juniper was startled, and squeezed Li Yi's hand, "My father and the others..."

"So, to save you is to save the Du family and Ruifu." Li Yi smiled and said firmly.

"But, but you...you can't," Jun Feng shook his head desperately, "Even so, I can't let you..."

"It's really stupid." Li Yi pulled out a hand to cover Juniper's lips, and his moist eyes held a deeper smile, "If we saved you, but we lost ourselves, what's the point?"

Juniper was stunned, Li Yi stared into his own eyes with tears and smiles, his heart was shocked, and the tip of his nose became acidic.

"Mr. Tumu, I ask you, do you like that Tan Ting?" Li Yi said lightly, as if asking you if you were hungry after eating, but Jun Feng's heart shook violently.

"I, I...Actually, I..." His lips moved slightly under Li Yi's fingers, and his voice became lower and lower.

Li Yi looked at him quietly, as if this was no longer a prison cell, but a small pavilion under the moon where they used to drink and talk.At this moment, he already knew what kind of answer he wanted to hear, but he didn't know whether the juniper wind would satisfy him.

In the silence, Han Mengliu sighed, "Brother Li, it's getting late, it's time to go."

Juniper's eyes flashed, they...are leaving?

There was a strong reluctance in his eyes that he didn't even realize. Li Yi brushed aside Juniper's messy hair with both hands, and smiled at the pear-like osmanthus face: "If I save you this time, you promise me Is one thing okay?"

"What, what?" Juniper was at a loss.

Li Yi withdrew her hand and took a step back, "You will know when the time comes."

Turning around to leave, Jun Feng tried his best to squeeze out of the prison door, watching Li Yi and Han Mengliu gradually disappear in the white light, the white light dissipated, and the surroundings returned to normal.The suddenly sober guard patrolled around as if nothing had happened, and scolded him to retreat.

Juniper came to the corner and shrank his body, feeling heavy in his heart.

His father, child, and other members of the Du family.

And... Li Yi.

After leaving the prison, Han Mengliu asked Li Yi to go home first, and then went back to steal the dragon robe.Li Yi had seen Han Mengliu's tricks, and knew that she would only get in the way if she stayed, so she could only tell him to be careful.

After parting ways, Li Yi was in a state of anxiety all the way. He changed his clothes and lit the lamp to wait when he returned home. The safety of Juniper Feng and Han Mengliu was always entangled in his heart.After fidgeting for half an hour, Han Mengliu finally came in safely and slapped a black bag on the table.

"I can only watch it for an hour, and I will send it back later."

Li Yi glanced at him gratefully and solemnly, opened the bag, and there was a group of golden flying dragons on the bright yellow brocade, the embroidery patterns were dense and smart, and the accessories were precious and eye-catching.Looking carefully at the corners and corners, Li Yi's expression was almost desperate, "To be honest, this dragon robe really reveals Rui Fulin's craftsmanship everywhere, and I can't see any difference."

"The implication is that you have learned too deliberately?"

Li Yi frowned, "There is no evidence to prove that someone learned it on purpose. It is said that it was made by Rui Fulin, and no one can refute it..." A sudden flash in his mind, he excitedly grabbed the life-saving stick Straw, "I can't see it, no one in the world can see it, even Rui Fulin himself can't see it, but as long as there is a difference, there must be someone who can see it!"

Han Mengliu was also rarely excited, "Who is it?!"

Li Yi grinned, "My father."

Li Chongnuo and Du Mingli studied clothing and woodware skills under Fang Datong's old school when they were young. After opening their own shops, they honed many new skills. How to fight back.

At this time, Li Yi pinned all her hopes on her father, but unexpectedly, Li Chongnuo and his wife got up from the bed rubbing their sleepy eyes. When they saw the shining thing, they lost their wits and scolded Li Yi for getting angry, telling him to hurry up Where did you get it and send it back.

Li Yi's persuasion was fruitless, and he plopped down on his knees, "Father! The matter has been messed up, and the only thing we can do is to find a way to get rid of the crime, and the sooner the better, the more dangerous it is to delay! Father, son I beg you to take a look!" Knocked his head so loudly.

Li Chongnuo frowned and stared at Li Yi, and then at Han Mengliu who was standing beside him in night clothes with a calm but firm expression, thinking that these two young people really don't care about life and death.

With a long sigh, he finally picked up the dragon robe with shaking hands, and looked at it carefully.

The room was silent, and the sound of the hourglass could almost be heard.

"It doesn't seem to be different..." Li Chongnuo muttered to himself, and suddenly slapped Li Yi, "Yes, go to adjust the fading water, make it thicker, five times. Then get the thinnest embroidery needles."

Heng Qingyuan and Rui Fulin have extraordinary weaving and dyeing skills, and the fabrics are not easy to fade, not to mention the saponins used in daily laundry, even the fading water used in the dyeing workshop cannot do anything about it.Now to thicken the fading water, is it necessary to work hard on the dye?

Li Yi ran to do it in confusion and anticipation. After getting everything ready, Li Chongnuo carefully picked up a corner of the dragon robe and stretched it towards the fading water.

"Uncle, I'm impolite to interject a word." Han Mengliu said, "This is an extremely important piece of evidence. Is it damaged..."

Li Chongnuo said: "I only need a very small piece, and since I dare to do so, I have the ability to make it recover quickly."

Han Mengliu was stunned, "Uncle's skills are superb, and this junior admires him."

Li Chongnuo dipped a thumb-sized piece of the dragon robe into the faded water, took it out after a while, laid it flat and put it aside.He also soaked the corner of the robe he was wearing, and then took it out and put it away.Everyone watched as the colors on the two pieces of cloth faded gradually, and completely faded to gray after a cup of tea.

Li Chongnuo picked up the embroidery needle and picked out a silk thread from the faded dragon robe, and asked Li Yi to turn on the light, and then used the embroidery needle to remove the outer layer of the silk thread, revealing the thinner and smaller thread core wrapped in it.

Han Mengliu couldn't help praising: "There is a silk in the silk, it's really extraordinary."

Li Chongnuo said: "The technique of core-spun silk thread is quite exquisite, which can enhance the toughness of the material without adding weight, but it is not easy to learn, and many garment workshops do not know it. Only princes, nobles, and wealthy families will use this thread. "

Han Mengliu said: "However, princes, nobles and high-ranking families often don't know the mystery of it, they only know how to wear it."

"Exactly." Li Chongnuo used the same method to pull out the core of the silk thread of his robe, and put the two cores together, "Look and see."

Li Yi, Han Mengliu, and Mrs. Li probed over at the same time. Li Yi first said: "Father, the core of your clothes still has color, but the core of the dragon robe does not. This means... our Heng Qingyuan's weaving and dyeing skills better?"

Li Chongnuo shook his head and sighed, "Actually, I personally made this robe according to Rui Fulin's technique."

"What?!" Everyone looked at each other.

"It's a long story." Li Chongnuo got up and walked aside, "I used to be a big brother under Master's school, and I often guided my juniors. Because I was young and mischievous, I did often bully them. Once I asked Du Mingli to replace me He didn’t want to do laundry, so I told him that Master had a unique secret skill that was only passed on to the first disciple. If he could do laundry for me for a month, I would tell him. At that time, Du Mingli was very young and still stupid, so he agreed after hesitating for a while. A month later I told him that the dyeing should be dipped four times instead of twice, so that the color will never fade, rich and powerful people wear such clothes, and they can sell for a lot of money. I was talking nonsense, but Du Mingli believed it. Later, when the master assessed him, he soaked it four times, but after the time was exceeded, the clothes were not finished and he failed the assessment, and he was fined by the master. But Du Mingli was very shy, and he fought with me. Four times, and said that even if it is soaked four times, it will be faster and better than mine, and later he prescribed Ruifulin, and he also asked the craftsmen to do the same."

When Li Chongnuo talked about this past, he kept his hands behind his back to everyone, and Li Yi unscrupulously showed contempt: Although he is his father, such behavior is really disgusting.And Juniper Feng's father is really stupid and stupid, even the Juniper Feng he gave birth to is exactly the same.He was different, not only did not inherit his father's past evilness, but he grew up to be so broad-minded and heroic.

"That's why uncle just wanted to prove..." Han Mengliu took a step forward.

"This dragon robe was only soaked twice when it was dyed, and it was definitely not made by Rui Fulin." Li Chongnuo turned around and lifted the hem of the clothes, with a firm tone, "Du Mingli only took this as a prank, but I took it seriously and tried to compare After many years, I finally discovered that dip-dyeing twice is enough for most fabrics, but the color of core-spun silk will seep into the core after four times of dip-dyeing, as evidenced by my coat. I am afraid that Du Mingli himself does not know this point, Otherwise, there is no need to publicize it.”

Han Mengliu said happily: "The shopkeeper Du must not know, otherwise he wouldn't have kept silent during the interrogation."

Li Yi immediately leaned over to flatter her, "So it's better to say that Dad is better."

"But it has no practical effect. Only five times the concentration of fading water can completely fade the dyes of our big dyeing workshops. Ordinary people wear clothes, who would deliberately fade them? And even if the core of the core silk cannot be faded, the color on the outside will be gone." What if there is only the inside?"

"But now this is the key to saving people." Han Mengliu said.

Li Chongnuo looked at Li Yi nervously, "What... are you going to do?"

Li Yi said as a matter of course: "Since we found a flaw, of course we have to save them!"

"Save them? How to save them? How can I wait for ordinary people to manage the affairs of the government, let alone now..." Li Chongnuo looked at the dragon robe on the table and went numb, and hurried back to the table, "Okay , taking advantage of no one in the middle of the night, I quickly restored the clothes to their original state, and sent you back as if nothing happened!"

"Father!" Li Yi leaned forward, "Human life is at stake, how can you refuse to save him? You have been busy for a long time just now, why?"

Li Chongnuo shot the case angrily, and glared: "Isn't it because you forced me? Or will I be crazy with you in the middle of the night?! How many things have you found for me in the past year? It's not enough to toss around. Now it's You have to play with your life! Li Yi, you are not only playing with your own life, but also the life of the entire Li family, the entire Heng Qingyuan! Do you want our Li family to be the same as the Du family?!"

"But they are innocent!" Li Yi roared.

"That can only be blamed on their poor fortune!" Li Chongnuo also roared, confronting his son with red eyes for a long time, panting heavily, then slumped on the chair, silently restored the faded corner of the dragon robe, and threw it to Li Yi , closed his eyes and sighed: "Go ahead, this matter is over. Du Mingli...it depends on their fate."

"father!"

With a "plop", Li Yi knelt down again holding the dragon robe, and her voice was suddenly shrill, "Jun Songfeng and I have a child, and in my life... I have recognized him. The Du family is our own family. If something happened to them, we If we don't help, who else can we ask to help? Besides, we won't be able to run away once we even sit down! Let's talk about it, although Heng Qingyuan and Rui Fulin are against each other, but if Rui Fulin falls, regardless of the officialdom and business, Heng Qingyuan will It's hard to stand alone." The tip of the nose was sour, and the tone was crying, "Father, you and Jun Feng's father grew up together, and brothers are nothing more than that, what kind of hatred can make you watch their whole family beheaded?" ?!"

In the night-shrouded hall, Li Yi's voice lingered, generous and sad.

Mrs. Li stood in the corner with tears in her eyes.

Looking at Li Yi's straight back, Han Mengliu recalled the scene of parting in prison not long ago, filled with emotion.

Li Yi wiped her nose hard, "Father, I know what you are worried about. I am not such a heartless person. I will not implicate the whole family. From now on, I am no longer a descendant of the Li family. Liang, I will ask the master to cross out my name from the Li family tree!" Wiping away tears again, he solemnly kowtowed three times to Li Chongnuo, turned around and rushed out, and soon disappeared into the night.

"You..." Li Chongnuo was so angry that his beard trembled wildly, and he patted the table with trembling hands, "Bastard!"

Mrs. Li grabbed her handkerchief and cried out.

"Uncle and aunt, don't get angry, Brother Li is only angry for a while." Han Mengliu stepped forward and knelt forward, "This junior swears on his life that this matter will never implicate the Li family! Although this junior's life is not worth mentioning, But uncles and aunts please believe in the younger generation, and also believe in brother Li."

"Mr. Han, you are Yi'er's friend, you..." Madam Li spoke incoherently with tears in her eyes.

"Uncle and aunt, it's not too late. This junior will go after Brother Li." Han Mengliu stood up, cupped his fists, and ran out the door.

Mrs. Li looked at the angry Li Chongnuo helplessly, "Master, Yier, he, he is really... fascinated, fascinated by that kid from the Du family..."

Li Chongnuo silently stared at the faded corner of his robe, his brows furrowed tightly.

Han Mengliu chased to the courtyard wall outside Li's residence, took the dragon robe from Li Yi, who was full of anger and panting, and wrapped it in a bundle, "Brother Li, calm down. There are important tasks ahead."

Li Yi nodded indiscriminately, "Brother Han, you send this thing back first, I'm now..." Rubbing her face vigorously, her eyes were firm, "I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it's almost time to go to court, I'm going Stop Prime Minister Jing's sedan chair, and ask him to let Duke Tumu and the others decide! The previous preparations for Mr. Cheng's wedding can be regarded as some friendship with the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone says that Prime Minister Jing is a good official, so I don't think he will just sit idly by."

Han Mengliu said: "It's not too late, you go first, and I'll go find you after I return the dragon robe." Jing Lan is not only the prime minister, but also the prince and grand tutor. Now that Xia Zhao has been robbed, what Li Yi is looking for must be Jing Lan wish to see things.It's just that I don't know whether the thoughts of the person on the dragon chair today are the same as I expected.So just be careful and do your best.

The two parted ways, Li Yi ran alone in the lonely and terrifying streets of the capital in the middle of the night, her heart pounding, her body was so hot that even the breath she exhaled was almost on fire.

Turning the streets and crossing the alleys, he finally arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion. He knelt down facing the three large scarlet characters on the lintel, and the brilliance of the stars sprinkled his dusty clothes.

As the stars moved, the ink color of the eastern sky was dyed dark blue, and there was a sudden sound behind him.Li Yi turned her head and saw Han Mengliu walking towards him, followed by a large figure, who turned out to be... his father? !

Li Chongnuo came to Li Yi and stared at him fiercely.

Li Yi looked up, "Father, didn't I already say..."

Li Chongnuo gave him another gouging look, then lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down beside him.

Li Yi was shocked, "Father! You..."

Han Mengliu knelt on the other side of Li Yi, "It was I who went back to your mansion and told my uncle. Brother Li, you were too anxious earlier. Uncle is older, so he naturally thinks more about things than we do, but it's definitely not what Brother Li said. A person who is ruthless, greedy for life and afraid of death."

Li Yi burst into tears, "Father..."

Li Chongnuo rolled his eyes, "What can you two children do? You can't peel the cored silk thread alone. Besides, if you really save Du, he won't be able to hold his head up in front of me in the future. It’s also a beautiful thing.”

Li Yi was moved and comforted, "Father, thank you."

Li Chongnuo snorted coldly, "There are priorities, so I don't care about it right now. But you were so rebellious just now, I will definitely count them out one by one in the future, and you are ready to deal with your ass."

Li Yi stuck out her tongue, while Han Mengliu watched with a smile.

The dark blue of the sky in the east gradually faded to light blue, the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion opened, and three lines of procession led three official sedan chairs out.

Li Yi immediately stepped forward on her knees and shouted: "Master Prime Minister! Caomin Heng Qingyuan Li Yi has a big grievance! Please Master Prime Minister to uphold justice!"

The official sedan stopped, and in the darkness of dawn, Li Yi vaguely saw slight movement of the curtains of the three sedan chairs.The bearer went to the window and said something to the people in the sedan chair. After a while, a young man in official uniform came down from the last sedan chair. It was Cheng Xi.

"What grievance do you have to stop the prime minister's official sedan chair?" Cheng Xi looked down at the three kneeling people with his hands behind his back, his eyes finally stopped on Han Mengliu, his eyebrows tightened a little.

Li Yi kowtowed, "Master Cheng! His Royal Highness, the general supervisor, Du Songfeng, the Du family and Rui Fulin were all wronged! That dragon robe was not made by Rui Fulin, it was deliberately framed by someone, and the evidence is in the private room." On the dragon robe made by the emperor! I beg the Prime Minister to uphold justice! Avenge His Highness the Crown Prince and everyone in Ruifulin!" Knocking his head heavily, Han Mengliu and Li Chongnuo followed suit.

Cheng Xi said indifferently: "How did you know about this? And how did you know that the evidence is on the dragon robe?"

Li Yi was in a state of shock. In the morning dew, his back felt a little chilly, "It's because...the grass people know Juniper well. He will never get involved in this matter. Evidence of his innocence can definitely be found on the dragon robe..."

"Young Master Cheng." Han Mengliu, who was kneeling upright, suddenly said, "This matter was investigated by the subordinates and told them. Mr. Li, the shopkeeper of Heng Qingyuan, has extraordinary weaving and dyeing skills, and he knows Ruifu, which even the Du family doesn't know about." The weaving and dyeing process is special, so the lower officials asked them to come and testify. The lower officials concluded that this matter was framed by unruly people, and it can also be asserted that as long as the shopkeeper Li Da saw the evidence, he would definitely point out the difference on the spot."

"You assert?" Cheng Xi looked serious, as if it was difficult to be persuaded.

Li Yi's heart started beating: Han Mengliu's words seemed to mean taking all the responsibility on himself.This time because of the juniper wind, he was too anxious and forgot about Han Mengliu's relationship with the prince.Now it seems that Han Mengliu is so desperate, probably because of the prince.Cheng Xi had inquired about Han Mengliu in the past, was it because of doing things for the crown prince, or was there some other enmity between them?

The more Li Yi thought about it, the more frightened she became. Just as she was about to say something to relieve her siege, Han Mengliu smiled at Cheng Xi and said in a low voice: "Young Master Cheng, I swear in the name of my own daughter and the crown prince princess. The evidence is on top of the evidence. The big shopkeeper will know it once he inspects it."

Li Yi was shocked, this was the first time he heard about his daughter from Han Mengliu.

"... Mr. Han." Cheng Xi stared at Han Mengliu complicatedly for a moment, and finally turned around and walked to the right prime minister's sedan chair.

"Daddy, what do you say?"

The car curtain was lifted, and Jing Lan, who was dressed in a crimson prime minister's official uniform, pressed the center of her eyebrows wearily, "It's another matter of putting your life on a cliff..."

"What does Daddy mean?"

Jing Lan raised his head, his eyes were open and natural, "Aren't there three people, one in each sedan chair, so Han Mengliu will come to my sedan chair."

"Father really wants to bring them face-to-face?"

Jing Lan smiled kindly at Cheng Xi, "This is the end of the matter, just accept the move."

The official sedan chair set off, all the way to the outside of the imperial city.

Before entering the palace, Han Mengliu bowed to Jing Lan: "Master Xiang, please step back for a moment."

Jing Lan glanced at his nocturnal attire, deliberately smiled and said, "Can you please return and change?"

"Master Xiang really knows how to joke." Han Mengliu also smiled easily, "I have more important things to do, I believe I can help Master Xiang."

Jing Lan's smile gradually stopped, "His Royal Highness has you by his side, it can be said to be both happy and worrying."

Han Mengliu bowed, "I don't understand what Xiangye means."

Jing Lan turned around and said indifferently: "After a while, you will know."

Han Mengliu looked at the back of Jing Lan's entry into the court, and some things seemed to be clear, but there were some new doubts, just as he said just now, he was both happy and worried.

"Brother Han." Li Yi walked up, "Prime Minister Jing told us to wait for the call to show the evidence, where are you going?"

"There is only one side of the evidence." The sky turned white, and the dew in the summer morning soaked the clothes he had traveled all night. Han Mengliu looked calm, "I am going to uncover the other side of this matter now."

"The other side?" Li Yi was puzzled.

Han Mengliu smiled lightly in Xiwei's morning light, "Who is behind the scenes, don't you want to know?"

Li Yi was startled, and watched Han Mengliu turn around, and his slender figure gradually moved away.

At the court meeting, Jing Lan pointed out that there may be new evidence in the case of the prince's privately made dragon robe, and asked Emperor Jianping to order a retrial at Dali Temple.Although Jing Lan's move is to advocate justice, it can't help being suspected of defending the prince.Emperors have always been most afraid of princes forming cliques, and all the ministers were sweating for Jing Lan.However, under Emperor Jianping's majesty, Jing Lan always calmly and slowly stated that the fake dragon robes need to be tested by skilled craftsmen in the palace and folk to show the truth and reassure people's hearts.

Emperor Jianping pondered for a long while, and finally agreed to play.

Some people in the court hall breathed a sigh of relief, while others raised their breath in their throats.

After the early dynasty, Dali Temple re-assessed the evidence, and selected two supervising weavers and two folk craftsmen. Li Chongnuo, the treasurer of Hengqing Yuan, who was also famous for making clothes, re-assessed the evidence. Emperor Jianping and his prime minister Jing Lan personally supervised it.In the end, it was found that among all the garments inspected by Rui Fulin, dyes remained in the core of all the cored silk threads after fading, but the fake dragon robes were not.

Emperor Jianping stared at the fading part of the fake dragon robe and said, "Jing Qing."

Jing Lan stepped forward and knelt down, "My minister is here."

Emperor Jianping picked up the fake dragon robe, and said expressionlessly: "If we decide the case, can we prove that this thing is not made by Rui Fulin only from these places? And can we further prove that this thing is not privately hidden by the crown prince? "

"Go back to the emperor." Jing Lan kowtowed, "I can't just look at the evidence."

Li Chongnuo, who was kneeling in the corner, felt his heart sink.

"However," Jing Lan said again, "there are witnesses who can testify that the people in Ruifulin did not know that the core-spun silk thread can be dyed four times to retain the dye, and they asked the weavers at will, and no one knew about this technique. With other reliable evidence, this minister believes that this object was not made by Rui Fulin."

Li Chongnuo breathed a sigh of relief.

"But still can't prove the prince's innocence?" Emperor Jianping raised his eyebrows.

Jing Lan said: "It is indeed the case at the moment, but the evidence is on the way, I dare to ask the emperor to wait for a while."

Emperor Jianping's narrowed tiger eyes burst out with a deep light, and he threw the privately made dragon robe aside.

From the downtown area of ​​the capital to the woods outside the city, Han Mengliu carefully followed the four men in black in front of him. He gradually heard the sound of a carriage farther ahead. After a little thought, he jumped straight to the source of the sound.

Han Mengliu's lightness skill was better than the four men in black. After a cup of tea, he saw the carriage running on the forest path.He flew down in front of the car, grabbed the driver by the throat very quickly and accurately, and smiled unsurprisingly at the man dressed as a villager with his bamboo hat pressed down so low that only his sticky beard was exposed, "Young Supervisor Tan, it really is you."

Tan Ting showed his still gentle and calm eyes from under the bamboo hat, "You are...Master Han?"

Han Mengliu said: "Tan Shaojian, Dongchuang incident happened, come with me."

Tan Ting lowered his eyes and remained silent.

There was a lot of noise behind the car, Han Mengliu looked at the figures who were about to chase, quickly took out a rope, tied Tan Ting's hands and feet, stuffed a cloth in his mouth, and ordered the galloping horse to stop.

"Now Tan Shaojian can neither escape nor commit suicide. You might as well take the time to think about whether you intend to accept the criminal law openly, or die aggrieved at the hands of the second prince's massacre? You might as well think about how Junfeng treated you in the past, and how you treated him. ?" With a soft sword drawn from his waist, he stood up and looked down, "Until now, Juniper Feng is about to kill everyone, but he still doesn't want to doubt you."

The voice fell, and a beautiful figure streaked across the sky.

There was a crisp sound as the weapons clashed, and Han Mengliu was fighting with the four men in black.
