Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty

"How does your lord plan to deal with it?" Fang Yizhi's eyes were filled with worry.

"For a person like me, Aye, there is only one way." Li Mingda paused, looked directly at Fang Yi, and said simply, "Acknowledge your mistake."

Fang Yi couldn't help laughing, "But you can't say everything, just follow his preferences, otherwise the saint will hardly trust your lord in the future."

Li Mingda pondered for a while, nodded, thanked Fang Yizhi for his reminder, and went back to the palace.

As soon as Li Shimin sent out the imperial decree to transfer Cui Qingji, when he saw Li Mingda came back in a hurry, he naturally thought that Li Mingda came here for this matter.

"Come back so early on purpose, what do you want to say to Aye?"

"Why did Aye transfer Cui Liulang away?" Li Mingda blinked and looked at Li Shimin curiously.

Li Shimin's face darkened, "It just happened that the Ministry of Industry was short of people. I couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while, so I thought of him. His father was the Minister of the Ministry of Industry in his early years. His father pointed out this aspect, so there must have been some mistakes. What, you Mingjing Department Still not enough people? Do you want to get them back with me?"

"No no no, I don't mean that, I wish he would leave." Li Mingda muttered.

Li Shimin originally thought that Li Mingda would 'rebel' for Cui Qingji and himself, so he just wanted to drive Cui Qingji back to Boling.But she suddenly heard Li Mingda say this, and her curiosity was immediately aroused.

"You want him to go?" Li Shimin asked Li Mingda for confirmation.

Li Mingda chuckled at Li Shimin, nodded frankly and admitted.Li Mingda then knelt by Li Shimin's legs, raised his head and said to Li Shimin: "Aye, did you tell Sizi about the marriage contract earlier? I want Sizi to get along with Cui Liulang well. Sizi just thinks that as long as he can get along with Cui Liulang If the relationship is good, Aye must be happy. Besides, the person Aye chooses for his son must be very troublesome. It is a one-in-a-million choice. Sizi should not be dissatisfied, but should cherish it. So Sizi has been working hard to get along with him these days, but he always feels something is wrong. It’s not that Cui Liulang is not good. Sizi worked hard to discover that he has a lot of talents. The piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting are all amazing. But Sizi doesn't know why, but always feels that something is wrong, and it feels like something is missing."

Li Mingda shook his slender eyelashes, lowered his eyes, and looked at his fingers sullenly, with a face of confession.

Li Shimin had just watched Li Mingda's crystal clear eyes wide open to look at him, the eyeballs were shining and full of sincerity, now a pair of lovely eyes suddenly drooped down again, sadly, it suddenly made people feel distressed stand up.

Li Shimin frowned and looked at Li Mingda's forehead, sighed lightly, and put his hand on Li Mingda's forehead. "So, you've been forcing yourself to get along with Cui Qingji these days, but you're not good at all. Then what you did before was just a show for Aye?"

"Aye, did Sizi commit the crime of deceiving the emperor?" Li Mingda looked up at Li Shimin again, his eyes were red.

"Stupid child, how can this be considered bullying? You want to get along well with Cui Qingji because of Aye. But people have different ways. Sometimes if they don't get along with each other, they just don't get along, and it has nothing to do with character." This point of life experience Li Shimin still has them.For example, he is incompatible with Xiao Yu.He clearly knew that Xiao Yu's character was not bad, but every time he went to court or discussed matters, this guy only had to speak, and Li Shimin was inexplicably depressed in his heart, but he didn't like to listen to him, and every word he said hit the spot. He's annoyed.The degree of dislike for him is even ten times that of Wei Zheng.

"Aye, I'm wrong." Li Mingda tugged on Li Shimin's sleeve, blinking and blinking.

"Do not blame you."

Li Shimin sighed and patted Li Mingda on the head to comfort her.I also thought about it, whether when I was looking for a son-in-law for my daughter, I acted too much according to my own wishes, and did not consider my son-in-law's feelings.Does it really suit her and make her like it?The husband I find for my son should be just like him and the eldest grandson, they should be like-minded and deeply affectionate.

Li Shimin pulled Li Mingda up and told her not to kneel on the ground.

Li Mingda grabbed Li Shimin's sleeves, still unable to get up, "Aye, there is nothing wrong with Cui Liulang."

"Okay, I know, Aye won't take his anger on him." Li Shimin couldn't help but feel sad, his daughter is just too kind, Li Shimin nodded Li Mingda's head severely, "You, it's almost hard to protect yourself , but also to speak for others.”

Li Mingda giggled, and immediately hugged Li Shimin's arm, "I can't protect myself? Are you going to punish me?"

Li Shimin laughed, but he really liked his daughter acting like a baby to him.

"Reluctant."

Li Shimin pointed Li Mingda's forehead with his fingers, telling her not to think so much in the future, "You don't have to force if you don't like it, Aye is not unreasonable."

Li Mingda repeatedly agreed.After having lunch with Li Shimin, she left the palace as usual and continued to study the case at the Department of Mirrors.

After Li Shimin approved the memorial, he glanced at Cui Gan, the Minister of Zhongshu who was still waiting for orders in the palace, and seeing that he seemed to have something to say, he told him to speak up without hesitation.

"I want to plead guilty with Your Majesty, but I am sorry for Your Majesty." Cui Gan immediately knelt down and kowtowed reverently to Li Shimin to make amends.

Li Shimin was surprised, "What is the reason for Aiqing, why did she suddenly plead guilty so well?"

"It's about the little boy Cui Qingji, I'm afraid it will cause His Majesty worry." Cui Gan said.

Li Shimin smiled, "So it's about this, your son is well-behaved and hasn't made any mistakes, so why are you worrying me?"

"Then... the minister is talking too much." Cui Gan repeatedly apologized.

How could Li Shimin let Cui Gan go, he must explain the reason clearly.

Cui Gan said embarrassingly: "It's the minister who has seen Liu Lang's complexion in the past two days. He doesn't look good after returning home every day. I asked him several times, but he only said that he was fine, and he would not speak if he was pressed again. Although the minister did not raise him himself This child, but I know a thing or two about his temperament, and he is the most stubborn, but nothing good will happen to him like this. The princess has a gentle temperament and is the most filial to Your Majesty. Therefore, the minister is very afraid that Liu Lang has done something wrong, and the princess Because he didn't want to worry the saint, he kept silent. After thinking about it, I felt that I should come to accept the crime and ask the saint to punish me. I have no way to teach my son, and the crime is serious."

After Cui Gan finished speaking, he kowtowed again, loudly, showing his sincerity.

After thinking for a while, Li Shimin smiled and waved Cui Qian to get up. "Since you said that Qingji's temperament is not right these two days, why don't we call someone to ask for clarification."

After Li Shimin finished speaking, he beckoned to send someone away.

Not long after, Cui Qingji came to see him, kneeling in the center of the hall in a polite manner.

"Your father sued you, saying that you were disrespectful to the princess, is there such a thing?" Li Shimin asked straight to the point.

Cui Qingji was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help but glance at his father Cui Gan.

Cui Gan snorted coldly, glared at him, scolded him as an unfilial son, then knelt down to apologize to Li Shimin.

Cui Qingji bowed her head and remained silent.

"So far, I still haven't said a word? But I'm so courageous. Today I will kill my relatives righteously and deny your son." Cui Gan said angrily.

Cui Qingji hurriedly kowtowed to Cui Qian, and asked respectfully: "Father misunderstood, the son did not bully the princess, and he will never be like this in this life."

When Li Shimin heard this, he glanced at Cui Qingji with bright eyes.

Cui Qian wanted to reprimand Cui Qingji at this time.Li Shimin hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, and rebuked Cui Qian: "Although father Yan is good, he should not be too harsh. Let's listen to what this child has to say first."

Li Shimin then kindly asked Cui Qingji if he had ever bullied Li Mingda, and why he was upset these days.

Cui Qingji hurriedly denied, "As for being upset, it's because Qingji has a problem in her heart, but Qingji can't say anything about it, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

After Cui Qingji finished speaking, he kowtowed to Li Shimin.

"Presumptuous, the sage asked you something, how dare you not say it?" Cui Qian was so angry that he sighed that he was too embarrassing as a father, and then he knelt down and quickly pleaded guilty to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to signal Cui Qian not to speak, and asked Cui Qingji why he didn't speak.

Cui Qingji kept her mouth shut, with a look of embarrassment on her face, and only kowtowed to Li Shimin to express that he really couldn't speak.

Li Shimin was silent for a while with a sullen face, and then suddenly said sharply: "You know what will happen to you if you disobey the holy order. Your father will not protect you now."

Cui Gan kowtowed again, and turned to look at Cui Qingji worriedly.

Cui Qingji remained silent, maintaining a gesture of bowing his head and admitting his mistake.

Li Shimin looked at Cui Qingji sharply for a moment, which made the atmosphere in the room very tense.Suddenly, Li Shimin burst into laughter, and asked Cui Gan and Cui Qingji to get up.

"Your Majesty?" Cui Qian looked at Li Shimin puzzled.

"Let's all get up and talk." Li Shimin immediately suppressed his smile, and looked directly at Cui Qingji, "Your unspeakable secret is related to Princess Jinyang, so you don't want to say it?"

Cui Qingji glanced at Cui Gan quickly, and Cui Gan also looked at Cui Qingji at this time, frowning.

Cui Qingji blinked, and bowed to Li Shimin, hesitating and hesitating, not knowing whether to say or not to say.

"Why hesitate, it's not a man's doing. I promise you are innocent, and I won't tell Jinyang, just reply honestly."

This is what Cui Qingji should be, and replied: "When I was in the Mingjing Division, your lord treated Qingji very well, but Qingji always felt that your lord... seemed to have something wrong with her, so she couldn't help but blame herself when she was confused, and she was overwhelmed with worry. It was discovered by my father. Now that Qingji has already reflected on it, he reads it every day by candlelight and night, and cultivates himself, only hoping to live up to the expectations of his majesty and grandfather."

"You are a sensible child." Li Shimin immediately understood the meaning of Cui Qingji's words, and immediately smiled at Cui Gan, "Sometimes people really want to talk about fate."

Cui Gan was stunned, then cupped his hands in a panic, promising that it was indeed the case.

Cui Qingji lowered his head halfway, frowned fiercely, and remained silent.Immediately after he heard Li Shimin and his father say a few words about court affairs, he followed Cui Qian to leave the Lizheng Hall.

The father and son got into the carriage, but the carriage left from Chengtian Gate. Cui Gan, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened it, looked at Cui Qingji who was also silent beside him, and asked him what he thought.

After Cui Qingji came out of the Lizheng Palace, he had been thinking about it, and now he had gone through all the possibilities in his mind several times.

"As Aye said, Princess Jinyang is really different," Cui Qingji smiled helplessly, "I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, the princess has already reacted, and we are one step ahead."

Cui Gan frowned and nodded, "This woman is extraordinary, fortunately she is just a daughter, otherwise the prince in front of her would not be as good as her."

"She is talented, intelligent, not rigid, and very flexible. Such a person, regardless of gender, will be promising in the future." Cui Qingji turned to stare at Cui Qian, "Father should now clearly understand the reason for his son's persistence." ?”

Cui Gan twisted his beard and nodded, "You are very similar to your grandfather, both of whom are high-sighted, and I am also satisfied with her. If Princess Jinyang can join the Cui family, my Boling Cui family will be better than today. It is even more prosperous. In the future, it will be even harder to say. A good house is built one by one with good stones. If we can pave this piece well now, we may even have the ability to build a city in the future.”

"Grandfather also meant this." Cui Qingji slightly nodded to Cui Qian as a salute.

Cui Gan nodded, but looked at Cui Qingji with some concern, "But now I see that the princess doesn't seem to care about you. This marriage with the royal family can only be done by fate, not by force. Aye is not underestimating Your ability, but sometimes between people, as the sage said before, it depends on fate."

"Fate is certainly important," Cui Qingji laughed, "but there is also a saying 'it depends on human effort'."

Cui Qian smiled, he likes this son's self-confidence the most.He patted Cui Qingji on the shoulder and told him: "Aye will always support you, but don't be too persistent. If things don't work out in the end, we'll just let it go. If there is nothing in life, there is nothing to force. There are many ways of living, but the same will be very good.”

Cui Qingji nodded, but his expression was not the slightest bit moved.

Seeing him like this, Cui Qian didn't say anything. He couldn't forcefully stop the child if he wanted to make progress.What's more, his son has some talent, why not let him put it to good use first.

"You just have to be careful, don't overdo it." Cui Gan only told Cui Qingji that.

Cui Qingji nodded.

……

The sun was setting, there was no wind, and after the sunset glow faded, the sky and the earth turned dark gray.The vegetation, the ridge of the roof, and the high palace walls were all shrouded in darkness, and the surrounding became even more silent, and even the buzzing of mosquitoes could be heard.

Li Mingda fanned away a mosquito that was flying towards her neck, jumped off the horse, and threw it to the guards who came to meet him.Wearing a purple men's attire, with her hands behind her back, she walked swiftly towards the Lizheng Hall, asking people around her if Cui Gan and his son had been in the Lizheng Hall today.

The guard promised yes.

Li Mingda paused, glanced at the guard who said that, and continued walking, at a faster pace than before.

Li Mingda went back to his room and changed into light women's clothes, and greeted Li Shimin with a smile.

When Li Shimin saw his daughter coming back, he happily stretched out his hand for her to come over to see the calligraphy he had just practiced.Li Zhi was standing next to Li Shimin at this time, and sighed with a smile: "My sister is back, I'm waiting for you to eat."

Li Shimin glanced at Li Zhi, couldn't help snorting and said, "Your ninth brother has been hungry for a long time, but he refused to let him eat first, and insisted on complaining while waiting for you."

"Ninth brother is afraid that no one will compete with him for food, so he will not eat well." Li Mingda glanced at Li Zhi, and whispered to Li Shimin, but the volume could actually make Li Zhi hear clearly.

"No!" Li Zhi looked at Li Mingda with dissatisfaction, and argued, "I was waiting for you because I was thinking about you. But it's a good thing, in the end, good intentions were treated like a donkey's liver and lungs."

"Aye, look at Ninth Brother, he bullied me." Li Mingda snuggled up to Li Mingda and complained.

Li Shimin laughed. He always liked the bickering between the two brothers and sisters. It suddenly made him feel that he was not in the royal family, but in an ordinary household. He was surrounded by trivial matters and small noises every day. This feeling made him feel particularly happy and at ease.

Li Shimin still wanted to protect Li Mingda as usual, put his arms around Li Mingda and told Li Zhi, "You are the elder brother, so naturally you have to let your sister."

"Aye, let her go when I am justified?" Li Zhi was not convinced.

"Your sister is still young and not sensible." Li Shimin glanced at Li Mingda, and after he finished speaking, he himself doubted himself a little.Because his family's son has indeed grown up, and he looks very slim, which makes people very happy to see.

Li Zhi sighed helplessly, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, I will always be the elder brother, and let you, the younger sister who is always younger than me."

Li Mingda stuck out his tongue at Li Zhi, and then asked Li Shimin if he could pass on the meal.

The three of them then ate together, and after eating, they went for a walk in the garden together.Li Shimin then turned around and went to Concubine Yang.

At this time, Li Mingda asked Li Zhi without hesitation: "I heard that Aye just met Cui Liulang?"

As soon as Li Zhi heard her mention Cui Qingji, he raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I saw you, why, are you curious what they said?"

"Cui Qian is here?" Li Mingda asked Li Zhi, "Cui Qian was there first, and Cui Qingji came later, right?"

Li Zhi nodded, puzzled and asked Li Mingda: "Why do you ask this?"

"It's nothing, I just think it's a coincidence." Li Mingda was vigilant in his heart, and asked with a smile every day if Li Zhi was there at that time.

Li Zhi: "I'm not here, I went back to the house at that time."

Li Mingda immediately suppressed his smile, and waved to Li Zhi, "Then I have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shouted: "I'll go back too, it just so happens that we are going the same way!"

Then he saw Li Mingda leaving in a hurry, ignoring him at all, Li Zhi sighed endlessly.Just like that, he was abandoned because he was useless.

"Your lord, tomorrow is the birthday of Dali Temple Minister Fu Chunliu, Fang Shizi is among those invited." One of the guards who went to monitor Fang Yizhi came back and reported to Li Mingda.

"Fu Chunliu's birthday?" Li Mingda responded, nodded, sent the guards away, and then asked Zuo Qingmei, "What is the name of Fu Chunliu's third daughter?"

"Fu Hongmei, during the Fengfeng Banquet last year, she also talked to your lord and reported her family history." Zuo Qingmei said.

"Yes, I don't have any impression." Li Mingda sighed.

"Your lord wants to go to Fu Chunliu's residence?" Zuo Qingmei saw through Li Mingda's thoughts at a glance.

Li Mingda raised his eyebrows, pondered for a while, and finally shook his head, "I want to go, but forget it, so as not to be caught by the tail."

Zuo Qingmei couldn't help laughing, "Little tail?"

Li Mingda blushed, quickly shook his head and told Zuo Qingmei not to guess, she was just talking nonsense.Immediately she dismissed Zuo Qingmei, Tian Hanshan and others.Quietly in the house alone, it was good to go through the testimony of Nun Hui'an again.

After Zuo Qingmei went out, she turned to look at Tian Hanshan, her eyes were stern.

Tian Hanshan felt inexplicably weak from being stared at, and asked Zuo Qingmei inexplicably, "Why does Zuo Shanggong look at me like that?"

"Your lord has been very abnormal these past two days, you should know about it." Zuo Qingmei directly stated her judgment.

"No, I don't know, I'm not a worm in your lord's stomach, how can I know what your lord thinks." Tian Hanshan tilted his head and looked at the sky, avoiding Zuo Qingmei's questioning eyes.

"At the age, which girl does not have a spring, not to mention that our lord is so good, surrounded by some young children who are also good, after all, it is not surprising that there is someone who can sleep well." After Zuo Qingmei said, she turned her eyes to Tian Han Chan, whispered, "Fang Shizi?"

"How do you know?" Tian Hanshu looked at Zuo Qingmei in astonishment, pulled her to a more secluded side, and told Zuo Qingmei to keep a close eye on her mouth and not to leak it casually.

"Is there any need to hide this? It doesn't matter how many years I have been in the palace. I haven't seen anything. Although your lord can hide his emotions, but after all, she is a little girl. When she was pregnant, she was no different from her peers." Zuo Qingmei felt that Tian Hanshu was making a lot of fuss, "Fang Shizi is a nice person, and it's not something to be ashamed of liking him. Why are you so secretive?"

"People's words are terrible." Tian Hanshan glared at her, "Zuo Shanggong has always been cautious in dealing with things, why doesn't he take this matter seriously today."

"You misunderstood me, I mean, why are you hiding from me so mysteriously, but treat me as an outsider?" Zuo Qingmei said angrily.

"Don't dare, my ancestor, I'm afraid that many people will know about it, and more people will be involved, and it's not easy to keep it secret." Tian Hanshan sighed, and hurriedly begged Zuo Qingmei not to be offended. "Your lord actually didn't mean to hide it from you, otherwise, how could I take you by my side at any time, and sometimes I don't shy away from your presence."

"This is reasonable, but if these two people are really in love with each other, it will be a problem. Fang Shizi has to work hard. After all, the obstacles now are all caused by his mouth. The saint has always been to him. I appreciate it very much. When Empress Changsun was alive, Fang Shizi was only suitable for gentle-tempered children. At that time, the saint was very optimistic about him, and said that he would be rationed to Princess Chengyang. In the eyes of saints. Now he has become better than before, so he will naturally be more liked by saints, but unfortunately, it was ruined by that mouth!" Zuo Qingmei remembered the two crazy words that Fang Yizhi said at the beginning, and stood up for him. The princess was in a hurry.

"Hey, I'm trying to figure out a way, take your time, anyway, get that Cui Qingji away first." Tian Hanshan sighed.

Zuo Qingmei nodded, then He Tian Hanshu saluted, and left with a gust of wind.

Tian Hanshan had no choice but to run to Li Mingda with a sad face, and told her that Zuo Qingmei knew about it.

Li Mingda flipped through the evidence indifferently, and recorded the main points casually, with no surprise on his expression.

Seeing this, Tian Hanxi was also relieved, and then lamented: "Nowadays, it is really worrying one after another, the case has not been settled, and no clue can be found. The matter of your lord and Fang Shizi is also a big problem."

Li Mingda sighed after hearing what he said, and warned Tian Hanshan, "Don't say such things in the future."

"Yes."

After Li Mingda read the nun's testimony, he saw that there was an envelope under it, "What is this?"

Tian Hanshan looked at it and thought for a while, "Ah, it seems that when the case was tried, the evidence of the bandits at the time was collected, and they were probably put together, so they were all sent over."

Li Mingda also remembered that there was such a thing.She casually took out the evidence in the envelope to read, and then her gaze was fixed on the testimony that the clerk of the yamen had done to close the case.

"It says three children."

Tian Hanxi was puzzled: "What three children?"

"After the government suppressed the bandits, they said they saved three children. Besides Hui Ning and An Ning, there was one more." After Li Mingda finished speaking, he turned to look at Tian Hanshan, "Re-examine all the evidence about the bandit case at that time. Let’s see if we can find any clues about the child at that time.”

Tian Hanshan agreed, and then went to send a message to Cheng Chubi.

The next day, the sky was light blue and clear, with no clouds in sight.

After Li Mingda arrived at the Department of Mirrors early, he got the old files from the table that Cheng Chubi dug up in Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Criminal Justice last night.She looked carefully at the testimony of each bandit, and found that the bandits did not mention the three children.After all, although these three children were raised by nuns, they are their blood.Although none of the bandits knew who the real biological father of the child was, it was precisely because of this unclearness that probably all the bandits felt that the child might be their own, so they all wanted to keep the child. When people mentioned them, they all tacitly agreed that these three children were innocent people taken from abroad, so they also protected these three children from being implicated because of their crimes.

Li Mingda could only start with the officials and government officials who were in charge of the case, to see if he could find out the situation of the other child from their mouths.

It just so happened that Wei Shuyu came to report and told Li Mingda that his list had been sorted out according to his previous request.

Li Mingda took a look at it, nodded, and then handed over the investigation of the third child in the bandit case to Wei Shuyu.

Wei Shuyu did not leave after agreeing, but looked at Li Mingda with some hesitation.

Li Mingda asked him what else was going on, and Wei Shuyu looked around.Li Mingda understood, and immediately dismissed the idlers around, letting Wei Shuyu speak whenever he had something to say.

Wei Shuyu: "I heard that Cui Gan and his son entered the palace yesterday, so I was a little worried about your lord. I'm afraid they might have discovered our little trick, and turned us into an army and sued the sage. If the sage finds out about the princess I am afraid that the method used against him in secret will make him extremely angry, and impulsively, he directly refers Cui Liulang to the princess."

After Wei Shuyu finished speaking, he knelt down to apologize to Li Mingda, and said anxiously: "If the matter is really as I said just now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. It's all my fault. I gave your lord such a bad idea. I It never occurred to me that the people of the Cui family are so powerful that they would dare to plot against the princess."

"Their father and son came here yesterday, and it seems that they did mention me, but I was one step ahead of them, so the matter is not as serious as you said." Li Mingda saw Wei Shuyu's panic and regret, and knew that he was sincerely helping them. I also know that he is sincerely apologizing now.That being the case, there is no reason to blame him.

Li Mingda asked Wei Shuyu to get up without courtesy, so don't worry about it.

Wei Shuyu felt a little guilty after all, and kowtowed to Li Mingda again before getting up.

"Shuyu is really young and ignorant, so he didn't think about it. If he gives advice to the nobles in the future, he must think hard and think carefully before speaking."

"I'm glad to hear your words." Li Mingda gave Wei Shuyu a reassuring smile, telling him to get his errands to do things, don't have to worry about this matter anymore, just treat it as the past.

After sending Wei Shuyu away, Li Mingda's face darkened, she turned to look at Tian Hanshan, and asked him what he thought of this matter.

"Without Wei Shizi's words, I would have never expected that the Cui family father and son seem to be not simple." Tian Hanshan sighed.

Li Ming rested his chin in his hands and meditated. He didn't speak, but listened to Tian Hanshan's analysis of the whole incident. There were many coincidences.Fortunately, he was reminded by Jingfang Yizhi yesterday, and he entered the palace in time to explain the matter in advance, otherwise, I am afraid that he does not know what the result will be now.This time, Cui's father and son did not know what method they used to get the saint to meet them.The king's temper is the most difficult to figure out. If he files a complaint directly, he will definitely become suspicious. Looking at her father's reaction now, it should be that the Cui family's father and son are very tactful and natural to make her father realize that she is not sincere in dealing with Cui Qingji. .The two of them certainly did not file a complaint directly, nor did they speak offensively, and they probably retreated to advance. It can be seen that their father and son must have spoken very cleverly.

"Your lord, then we have to guard against them in the future. Shouldn't we also tell Mr. Fang about this?" Tian Hanshan asked Li Mingda for his opinion in a low voice.

Li Mingda nodded, "Today is Dali Siqing's birthday, so I will send someone to inform him after noon and the banquet is over."

Tian Hanshan agreed, and sent someone to wait outside Dali Siqing's mansion when he fought back.

Unexpectedly, before the morning passed, Yin Tianming of Jingzhao Mansion rushed to the Department of Mirrors and Li Mingda to salute, saying that something was wrong.

"A case has occurred. Although the Jingzhao Mansion has received a report, it is really difficult to deal with it here. The next official came here and wanted to transfer the Department of Mirrors to take charge." Bai Ming pleaded.

Li Mingda just found some clues from the list of missing persons submitted by Wei Shuyu.There were two cases on hand that could not be investigated, so he didn't want to worry about the troubles that Bai Ming said.

"Your Jingzhao Mansion is full of people, and there haven't been any major cases recently. I have few people here, and I have caught up with two cases at the same time. I don't have the time to take care of your business." Li Mingda said.

"Your lord, this case is none other than yours. It's really not suitable for me to investigate." Bai Ming complained repeatedly, and begged Li Mingda once again to listen to him before making a decision.

Li Mingda put down his pen, looked at Bai Mingming and said, "Okay, then tell me, I would like to hear what kind of case is mine."

Bai Tianming spoke crisply: "The third daughter of Dali Temple Minister Fu Chunliu died."

Li Mingda was stunned, "You said she is Fu Chunliu's daughter?"

"Yes, the name is Hongmei." Bai Ming replied, "I was found dead in the boudoir about three incense sticks ago."

"How did you die?"

"This..." Bai Ming said awkwardly, "There is no autopsy yet, so it's hard to say. It was the maid beside her who found her naked in the boudoir, and then the little ladies from Beppu witnessed her death with their own eyes. Xiaguan was at the scene at the time, and the door was closed when he rushed over. Fu Chunliu told me sadly that the situation inside is not suitable for others to see, let alone men. Fu Chunliu has a tough attitude and will never allow men Into the house to investigate. I had no choice but to order someone to guard the scene temporarily, and came to ask your lord for help. Your lord is a woman, so it is convenient to go in and out of the back house.

The female widow that Bai Ming mentioned refers to Zuo Qingmei.

"This is strange. At the father's birthday banquet, the daughter would be killed in the boudoir. A woman from a wealthy family must have followers. Are there any witnesses? Are there any suspects?" Li Mingda asked.

Bai Ming apologized to Li Mingda in embarrassment, "Actually, I didn't ask about these things. Just about the investigation of the corpse, I have already had a dispute with the minister of Dali Temple. Now the best thing I can do is to send someone to protect the corpse." At the scene, Fu Chunliu and Fu Chunliu were already in a row because of this, and there was no way to take care of and investigate other matters. But there is indeed a suspect, and I feel even worse when I mention this. This person is Fu Hongmei who is dying. The last person I saw before was none other than Fang Shizi."

"This...that's impossible!" Tian Hanshu's eyes widened in surprise when he heard the words, and he shook his head with emotion, "How could such a gentleman like Fang Shizi go to kill people. Baifu Yin, you should not be so casual at a time like this." just kidding."

"I think so too, but Fu Chunliu is forcing me to find out the murderer who hurt her daughter and monitor the suspect. I have no choice but to order someone to temporarily lock up the room. The prince is under surveillance." Bai Ming complained bitterly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Li Mingda immediately called Zuo Qingmei, and led them straight to the mansion of Dali Temple Minister Fu Chunliu.
