, looked over with a straight face, and said: "If I say so, you must let my little brother go, and keep him safe in this life. If not, even if you beat me to death, I won't say a word."

"Okay! I promise you!"

Li Ran said these words loudly, Xiao Cui saw that the other party's expression was serious, and it didn't seem fake, so she could only choose to believe it, because she had no other way to survive now.

She closed her eyes and thought for a moment, and then she told the whole story in detail, and the mastermind Thrushshe mentioned in her mouth turned out to be Concubine Chen's personal maid.

This result really made Li Ran silent for a while.

After Xiao Cui finished speaking, he fell down on the torture bench with a slumped face.

However, she didn't know that the so-called Liu Jun had already been hidden by Su Mo in a safe place, so how could Li Ran find it easily.

This move was nothing more than an empty plan after he received the news from Li Zixin, after careful consideration.

The reason why the other party fell into the trap was because he had robbed him earlier and lost a move psychologically. Later, he heard the secret of Liu Junshang's existence in the world from him, and saw the jade pendant. It's perfectly normal to lose the calmness before.

As for the matter of Yupei, thanks to the news brought by Li Zixin, because he knew Su Mo well, he also knew something about the Liu family.The Liu family had three identical pieces of the jade pendant thrown over just now, and each of the three brothers and sisters of the Liu family had one piece.

After Liu Feng passed away, his piece was buried together with him.Therefore, there are only two identical jade pendants left in the world.One is in Liu Jun's hands, and the other is kept by Xiao Cui.

And she never expected that the piece she saw just now was the one that Jiang Yun obtained from her.

What kind of skill is Jiang Yun, how can it be difficult to defeat him with his little trick of stealing dragons and turning them into phoenixes?

After Li Ran received the news from Li Zixin, he thought about it back and forth, and then took it into consideration, and simply came to borrow flowers to offer Buddha, and naturally used Xiao Cui's own piece.

The other party preconceived that it was her brother's jade pendant, but it was actually the key to his plan.

Of course, if Xiao Cui is calm enough, then she should also take out the jade pendant she keeps close by for comparison.

However, the other party had already lost her composure, and she never expected that someone would be able to transfer the bag without anyone noticing, so it was reasonable for her to be deceived.

After Xiao Cui finished his confession, Li Ran snapped his fingers and said to come in, and then he saw Ji Kun, the servant of the criminal department, walking in with a blue face, and then a deep voice came in from outside the door: "Ji Kun, the prisoner is here!" I leave it to you, if there is no reason for the next interrogation, I will give you the position of Minister of Punishment.”

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Jue, dressed in a dragon robe, walked in, followed by Wang Juenian, Chen Shang, and others, who seemed to have been listening for a long time.

He said it lightly, Ji Kun's face turned pale, he knelt down immediately, and said "I would like to obey the holy edict", his eyes were full of panic.

The farce came to an end temporarily, Jiang Jue led the crowd to leave, and when he arrived at the gate of the execution room, he said compassionately: "The criminal is here with you, if there is any mistake in human life, you have to weigh it with me, understand?

When Ji Kun heard it, he naturally understood what Jinshang meant, but judging from the current situation, Concubine Chen had already been targeted. It was a trick, and if the person above her was involved, then Ji Kun would be unable to eat and walk away.

Neither the left nor the right can be offended, but this case has to be investigated. With such a huge problem in front of him, Ji Kun can only act in a hurry.He has been in the position of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment for more than ten years, so many storms have come over him, is it true that he really wants to fall on this stump?

Ji Kun thought for a moment, and then made up his mind, he chose to go to the Duke's Mansion tonight.

Everyone came out of the criminal prison with different expressions. Chen Gong stroked his beard calmly, maintaining his usual cautiousness and humility on his face. Wang Juenian remained silent as always. He is a general and has always been very imposing. It looks a little forced.

Jiang Jue glanced at the two of them out of the corner of his eyes, sneered in his heart, and left the prison without saying a word, leading a group of people to wait Shi Shiran.

Li Ran's rebuttal just now, everyone saw it in their eyes and kept it in their hearts, and secretly thought that Her Highness the Empress really has some skills.

Looking at Li Ran's handsome and slender back, several young officials with less seniority felt a little admiration for him.

But to Li Ran, his Xiaolu's hand is actually nothing.

People who are gangsters deal with the police every day and every day. The methods of those police officers in Zhicheng are much better than what he is doing today.

He just took advantage of the other party's psychology a little bit, but he didn't think it would actually happen, and he didn't know whether to lament that woman was too thoughtful, or lament that he himself had too much experience in being interrogated.

Li Ran returned to Feng Palace, before entering the inner room, his legs were hugged by the little prince Jiang Yi.

Li Ran lifted the kid up and threw him up with a smile. The little guy was amused and giggled.

Tired of playing beside Li Ran, the little prince pulled Li Ran's sleeve and said, "Dad, I want to take a bath!"

Li Ran glanced at him with a smile, and deliberately misinterpreted his meaning: "Okay! I'll let Qiaoxin take you there!"

Saying that, she made a gesture to call Qiaoxin in.

Seeing that the other party couldn't understand his little thoughts, the little prince felt a little wronged in his heart, pouted and said, "Yi'er wants to wash with Dad! Don't be Qiaoxin!"

Having said that, he opened a pair of big eyes full of expectation and looked at Li Ran.

Li Ran rubbed his little hairy head as if laughing, carried him on his shoulders, and walked towards the bathroom in the back room, yelling, "Okay! Go take a bath!"

The little prince was carried on his shoulders, making him laugh constantly.

When Jiang Jue came in, he saw such a scene.

Jiang Yi was playing in the water with his short arms and legs. Li Ran put his arm around the rambunctious little guy and washed his hair with the other.

The little prince fluttered around for a while, tired of the fuss, finally settled down, and then nestled in Li Ran's arms. Later, he didn't know what he found, the little brow frowned, and he raised his head and asked, "Does Dad hurt?"

Li Ran had just washed his hair, and when he saw the little guy frowning at him, he followed the other's little hand, and saw the bruises on his chest.

How embarrassing Li Ran was at that moment, perhaps only he knew.The little prince Jiang Yi looked at him with a pair of innocent eyes, Li Ran's face turned red and then white, white and then red again, it was really wonderful.

Seeing that his father's expression was different, Xiao Jiang Yi kissed the "wound" with a bang, and then kissed several times.

Jiang Jue watched from the sidelines, feeling really uncomfortable.

Now he can't even take half a step closer to the other party, how could he not be annoyed by being so provoked by the little prince?

After Jiang Yi made such a fuss, Li Ran lost the interest in taking a bath, so he wiped his hands indiscriminately, and then carried the little prince out of the back room.

Entering the inner room, Jiang Jue was actually there, sitting at the table with his usual smile on his face, holding a jade seal in his hand, but it was not as simple as a seal.

When the little prince saw Jiang Jue, he immediately clamored to jump on him, but Li Ran snorted secretly, but said nothing.

Jiang Jue took Jiang Yi over, smiled and touched his little wet head, Jiang Yi hugged the other's neck, his face was full of joy.

Jiang Jue played with Jiang Yi for a while, then handed the kid over to the old lady, and walked towards Li Ran.

Li Ran had been sitting at the table drinking tea. There were several maps spread out on the table, and he was concentrating on them.

Jiang Jue walked over, Li Ran only raised his head and glanced at him, Jiang Jue sat down opposite him calmly, didn't speak, just stared at him.

"I thought the matter of staying abroad would keep you busy."

Sensing the other party's gaze, Li Ran opened his mouth lightly, but kept his eyes on the map on the table.

"I have ordered Wang Juenian to lead 20 elite troops to Linguan, and Zixin to bring [-] vanguard troops from Fengdu to support them."

Li Ran frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to look at Jiang Jue, and asked, "Zixin is going too?"

Jiang Jue's eyebrows were fixed, but there was no gentle smile on his face: "There are changes in Xiping, and the war may change. I have to be fully prepared."

"Xiping?"

As soon as he asked the question, he remembered that Liu Wen seemed to have said that there was a Xiping next to Liuguo.

Thinking about it this way, I became more and more confused. Wouldn't it be better if Xiping had an accident?

"Xiping has changed hands, the successor, you and I both know each other!"

An unbelievable look appeared in Li Ran's eyes, and he thought to himself that they all knew no more than four people in total, except for Yin Chen, Li Zixin and Li Yun, there was only one Su Mo.

The other three are impossible, so it can only be Su Mo!

Li Ran also understood after a while.

That Su Mo, when he first met him that day, he felt that he was not a thing in the pond. He turned out to be the prince of Xiping, and now he is the emperor of Xiping.

Jiang Jue's concerns, he can more or less guess.

Although he has only met Su Mo once, his demeanor cannot be concealed.

Such a person, once he is given an equal status with Jiang Jue, is definitely a ruthless character that should not be underestimated.

Jiang Jue should understand this point better than anyone else.

"I know it would be difficult for someone to persuade you to stay again, but Bei Ye is now in the midst of internal and external troubles, not to mention Yi'er is still young, so I can only beg you to stay."

When Li Ran heard Jiang Jue mentioning Jiang Yi, his face was filled with disbelief.
