A little cinnabar nevus between the eyebrows

The next day, just as Qian Mei got up, she found Tang Bo running in in a panic, holding a piece of paper in his hand.

Qian Xie opened it, and it was a paper, which turned out to be about her past events, saying that she had killed an imperial court official by pretending to be a woman.Immediately, he felt that his head was blurred, and Tang Bo handed over another piece of paper tremblingly. It turned out to be a portrait of himself drawn when Qingcheng County searched him before.

Qian Mei suppressed the panic in her heart, "Where did you get this?"

"When I opened the door this morning, I saw two pieces of paper at the door. I picked it up and looked at it. Hey, I was scared to death."

Qian Mei clenched her hands tightly, it seemed that she had stuffed a copy at the door of every official's house, even her own!

Yurong was still asleep in the room at this time, and when she heard the movement outside, she came out, and Qianmei put away the portrait and certificate in her hand.

"Don't leave the house for a few days"

Yurong asked a little strangely: "What's wrong?"

Qian Mei didn't answer but just walked out, he was also panicked, what to do, what to do, the case is easy to handle, but this portrait is too similar to himself.

Qian Mei touched the mole between her eyebrows, hoping that this mole could save her again.

Qianmei got into the carriage and went to court as if nothing happened.

Emperor Xiaowen's complexion was very bad. He originally wanted to suppress the matter, but he didn't expect that the man's methods were so vicious that he would give every official a share.

Emperor Xiaowen pretended to be nothing in the early court, talking about things, and the crown prince did not pass the battle report for a long time, which made Emperor Xiaowen anxious.

After talking about the political affairs, Emperor Wen paused for a moment and looked at Qianyi.

"My son-in-law! Are you guilty?"

Qian Mei came out and knelt down: "I don't know what crime?"

Emperor Xiaowen threw down the two pages angrily. The portrait in Emperor Xiaowen's hand was stamped by Qingcheng County, so he couldn't deny it.

Lian Chengxie looked at Qian Mei worriedly, he didn't sleep all night last night so he went to find Chu Qikang, but he couldn't find him, and was preempted.

Qian Mei picked up the two pages, "Your Majesty, I have never done this before."

Emperor Xiaowen sneered: "Whether you've done it or not, it's not your turn to tell, Wang Zhong!"

Wang Zhong knelt down: "Your Majesty"

"You start investigating this matter. First, find out whether it is true! Second, find out who is behind the scenes."

"Yes! My minister takes orders"

In the lobby of the Ministry of Punishment, Qian Mei stood with her hands behind her back under the plaque of "Mirror Hanging High", seemingly leisurely and peaceful.

He Ya shouted loudly there, "Wei... Wu"

"Ascension to... hall!"

Wang Zhong sat in the lobby and slapped the gavel.

"The Man with the Complaint"

Chu Qikang walked into the gate and knelt there.

Qian Mei looked at Chu Qikang and smiled wryly, why on earth is this!Why did he turn out to be someone whom he respected as his father when he was a child!

"Who will report the name of the kneeler?"

"Qi Kang at the beginning of the Republic of China, a native of Fuzhou City, Fuzhou Prefecture."

"To whom?"

"Tell Yuyang County, Huizhou Prefecture, the champion Lang Qianxi"

"Why sue him?"

"He pretended to be a woman and killed the imperial court official"

Qian Mei sneered when she heard this, Chu Qikang looked at Qian Mei, who looked directly at the court and did not look at him.

Wang Zhong knew that although Emperor Wen said he was asking himself to find out, he was actually looking to Qianhui, hoping that he would find Qianmei innocent.As long as Qianmei is not Jiuyue in this matter, then Qianmei will be freed from the crime, the royal family's face will be preserved, and his black gauze hat will also be preserved.

Wang Zhong continued to ask: "What does this matter have to do with you? It's not that you killed your relatives. Could it be that you were instigated by someone to slander Chitose!"

Chu Qikang continued to buckle his head: "My lord, I am not instigated by others. I used to be the head of the theater troupe. I met Ye Huiwen, Qianmei's mother. Qianmei's father passed away, and the family was poor and unable to live. I couldn't bear it." So I took Qianmei to sing opera, because when Qianmei was studying, the small character Jiuyue was renamed Jiuyue, and she followed me from the age of 13 to 16. Later, the sheriff of Qingcheng County took a fancy to Jiuyue and wanted to accept He is a concubine..."

Speaking of this, Qian Mei almost fainted from anger, the majestic champion son-in-law was once forced to be a concubine, even if it ended like this, all her reputation would be ruined.

"Besides this painting, do you have any other evidence?"

"My lord, the Marquis of the Marquis of Liancheng once brought Qianmei into the mansion and discovered Qianmei's identity"

"anything else?"

"Shen Cunzhi, a concubine of His Royal Highness King Qi, used to be a member of my theater troupe. He often played with Qian Mei. They are familiar with each other. Please ask him to identify."

The more Qian Mei stood, the colder his heart became, in the end he just gave a faint wry smile, it seemed that someone threatened Chu Qikang, looking at his broken hand, he knew that he had resisted, and that was enough.

I'm just a gentle master, but with Chu Qikang's hand, why am I still blaming him?

Qian Mei glanced at Chu Qikang, interrupted Chu Qikang, everyone thought he was going to refute, but they didn't expect him to just say: "This person seems to be injured, sir, can you give him a seat? me"

Wang Zhong looked at Qian Mei, and Chu Qikang also looked at Qian Mei, who stood there calmly, neither angry nor smiling.

After a while, there was a commotion outside the Ministry of Punishment, and there was a cry: "The princess is here!"

Yu Rong walked into the Ministry of Punishment so angrily, Wang Zhong quickly ordered his subordinates to move a stool, and the princess stood beside Qian Mei instead of sitting down.

Wang Zhong stood up, "See Her Royal Highness"

Qian Mei glanced at Yu Rong: "Why are you here?"

Yurong raised her hand to let Wang Zhong get up: "I have no other purpose in coming today, I just want to see how my lord will interrogate my husband. Lord Wang doesn't need to think about me, please continue."

After finishing speaking, Princess Yurong sat down on the chair.

Wang Zhong knew that Her Royal Highness was not easy to offend, so he could only bite the bullet and continue the interrogation.

"Chu Qikang, speaking of this painting, there is a red mole between Chitose's eyebrows, but there is no such thing in this painting."

"My lord, in order to cover the cinnabar mole, Qian Mei used to wear jewelry to cover his forehead. Anyone who has seen his women's clothing knows it, and everyone in the troupe knows it. The person who painted this picture has never seen Qian Mei. It looked like it was taking off the ornaments, so I didn’t paint them.”

Wang Zhong felt that the more Chu Qikang said, the more plausible it was, and with the princess by his side, the more he felt that this case was not easy to go to trial today, it was simply a hot potato.

Wang Zhong patted the gavel: "You said that the Marquis of Liancheng and the concubines of Prince Qi's mansion once met Qiantui, wait for me to play to the Emperor Ming, and if he agrees, they will face each other in court tomorrow!"

Chu Qikang knelt down and bowed his head.

Qian Mei is the defendant, and the case should be imprisoned before the trial is over, but the princess is sitting in the main hall, so he doesn't dare to put Qian Mei in prison, so he can only shout: "Leave the court!"

Qianxie helped the princess and walked out, it seemed like a loving couple, Qianxie turned her head and glanced at Chu Qikang, wondering if he was being threatened or bewitched by others?
