Princess Jinyang of the Tang Dynasty

After Changsun Wuji, Changsun Chong and others learned the news that the murderer had been arrested, they all rushed over.Before Changsun Wuji entered the door, he heard someone in the hall yelling that he was a murderer. He immediately strode in and quickly entered the door. Seeing that he was actually a slave of the Changsun Mansion, he was so angry that he wanted to kill him with a knife.

Chang Sun Chong saw that it was Liu Shuyu, and showed a very surprised expression.

Many matters in the Changsun Mansion are handled by the eldest son, Changsun Chong.Chang Sun Chong usually had some contact with Liu Shuyu.It never occurred to him that an honest, reticent and kind person would be able to do such a thing as poisoning and killing the deputy envoy of the Wa Kingdom.

"He really killed people?" Chang Sun Chong looked at Li Mingda, seeing her nodding, Chang Sun Chong frowned even deeper, then squinted at Liu Shuyu, extremely disappointed.

Facing Changsun Chong, Liu Shuyu's face was full of guilt.He drooped his head, wishing he could hide in the cracks.

Li Mingda then told Changsun Chong and Changsun Wuji what she and Fang Yizhi had discovered in detail, and showed them the corresponding physical witnesses.

Liu Shuyu knelt on the ground trembling, and now he carefully considered the matter of the plaster and footprints, and a lot of remorse and regret arose in his heart.I just feel that if I had been more careful at the time, and didn't throw the plaster on the ground and stepped on it when I took off the plaster, then he wouldn't have exposed such a big flaw.At least when he was identified by the four Japanese followers, as long as he firmly denied it, there would be no other evidence to prove that it was him.

Chang Sun Chong glanced at Liu Shuyu again.Fortunately, Li Mingda and Fang Yizhi came to investigate this case, they only arrived at the Changsun Mansion for a few hours, and they already solved the murder case.The footprints and plaster clues are the most critical evidence to lock down the murderer, which is irrefutable.Chang Sun Chong couldn't figure out Liu Shuyu's motive for committing the crime, but he was so secretive, framed Chang Sun Huan in disguise, and brought shame to Chang Sun's house, which really made Chang Sun Chong very angry.

Although the murderer has been proven not to be his second brother, people are relieved, but the slaves of the Changsun Mansion also represent the Changsun family. This matter will definitely involve the interests of the Wa Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty. The eldest grandson's family and his father added a lot of trouble.

At this moment, Chang Sun Chong really wanted to fight Liu Shuyu in person, but his demeanor did not allow him to make any aggressive words or deeds against him.

"The Changsun Mansion really raised a white-eyed wolf!" Changsun Chong gritted his teeth and said bitterly.

Liu Shuyu became more and more guilty, and kowtowed to the eldest grandson, "I'm sorry for Dalang's kindness in the past! I deserve to die, if I want to, I'll lead him to death!"

After that, he kowtowed again and again, very hard.

But Chang Sun Chong thought it was ridiculous, "It's useful to say these words? If they hadn't found out the evidence, you might still shrink your head and deny it, and watch my second brother go to die!"

"He refused to say the reason for the murder." Li Mingda and Changsun Chong said.

The eldest grandson glanced at Liu Shuyu in disgust, and said sternly, "Hurry up!"

Liu Shuyu kept kneeling, pressed his hands on the ground, and pressed his face to the ground, and did not move any longer.

Seeing this, Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it any longer, slapped the table, and roared angrily: "You lowly slave, you really want to die. Well, I will do what you wish. Come, I will serve you with great torture!"

Liu Shuyu was so frightened that his body trembled for a while, but then he maintained his previous state and remained motionless.

Changsun Wuji was even more annoyed and wanted to get up.At this time, Li Mingda called his uncle softly, asking him to calm down.

Li Mingda looked at Liu Shuyu, in the face of Changsun Wuji's furious situation, even though he was trembling all over and was very scared, he still refused to say a word.It seems that this person has something on his mind, and he is very persistent, but simple and rude methods should not make him let go easily.

"I think he has something to hide. Why don't uncle rest for a while and leave these trivial matters to us to deal with. Maybe when the morning dawns, everything will be over."

The niece's words are always soft and pleasant, which makes people feel better inexplicably.Most of the anger that Changsun Wuji had ignited earlier was extinguished because of this.Since Li Mingda has the ability to find out the murderer in such a short period of time, Changsun Wuji is willing to believe that Li Mingda will have a better way to deal with Liu Shuyu when interrogating Liu Shuyu.

Changsun Wuji got up without hesitation and accepted Li Mingda's proposal.Before leaving, he specifically asked Li Mingda to do his best and not to force anything because of him.In the final analysis, this matter was the responsibility of their grandson's mansion's lack of strict control. There was nothing wrong with him taking responsibility in front of the Japanese people and saints and paying a certain price.

Li Mingda nodded in agreement, asking Changsun Wuji to rest assured.

After Changsun Wuji left, the hall was quiet for a while.

Chang Sun Chong immediately asked Li Mingda for his opinion: "Use torture?"

"No, confession obtained through torture may not be the truth." Fang Yizhi, who had been in a quiet state, said suddenly.

Chang Sun Chong looked at Fang Yizhi, then turned to look at Li Mingda, wanting to hear her opinion with his own ears.

Li Mingda: "He's right, torture is the worst policy."

Li Mingda looked at Liu Shuyu again, only to see the man cowering in the middle of the ground and still trembling.Ordinary people would probably think that Liu Shuyu was just exposing his crimes and fearing punishment.But Li Mingda could clearly hear the sound of his tears falling to the ground.He was crying quietly, and crying hard.

Of course, when a person is afraid of dying, he also sheds tears of fear.But Li Mingda felt that Liu Shuyu had little fear.If he was really afraid of death, he wouldn't have shouted out so loudly that Sanjiro Michigaki was murdered by him.At least he will try to quibble or beg for mercy, but he has neither of these.

Weeping is not because of fear, but why?Hate, sorrow, pain.

"Look up." Li Mingda said.

Liu Shuyu paused, then slowly raised his head.He closed his mouth tightly, his eyes were red and covered with tears. Although his face showed fear and guilt, his decisive attitude was even worse, and he still resolutely kept his mouth shut without saying a word.

Seeing this, Li Ming knew that he could not interrogate him immediately, so he first asked Chang Sun Chong about everything about Liu Shuyu.

Chang Sun Chong summoned the chief housekeeper, Guo Fengmu, to explain.

This Liu Shuyu has been in charge of Changsun's residence for more than ten years. He is prudent and quick in doing things, and he is kind. That's why he was promoted and rewarded with a lot of money. At the beginning of this year, Guo Fengmu specially helped him ask Changsun Chong to allow him. Bring the wives and daughters from home.It's a pity that his wife and daughter died of illness not long after they arrived in Chang'an City, and they never enjoyed happiness.

When Fang Yizhi heard the housekeeper mention Liu Shuyu's wife and daughter, he glanced at Liu Shuyu from the corner of his eye, and felt that there was something wrong with his performance, so he took another look at Li Mingda.Seeing that she also frowned, she knew that Princess Jinyang had the same suspicion as herself.

Changsun Chong is not so perceptive, at the moment he just feels that Liu Shuyu is ungrateful, and he caused such a big trouble in his Changsun's mansion to kill people, even if he cut him to death, it is not enough to calm the feelings of everyone in the manor. anger.

"The result of Changsun's mansion treating you well is to get this, how ridiculous!" Changsun Chong sneered and sighed.

Liu Shuyu hurriedly kowtowed again to make amends to Changsun Chong, "I am most sorry for Dalang's kindness. I have failed the Changsun's house. I dare not ask for anything else. I just want to die, I just want to die, and I want to die quickly!"

Liu Shuyu kowtowed violently again, repeating the words he wanted to die over and over again.

There was a trace of cruelty in Changsun Chong's eyes, "Death is too light for you. The real pain is that you can't live but you can't die."

Liu Shuyu shivered for a while, and didn't dare to speak again.

"You keep looking up, and I won't allow you to lower your head when you talk to me." Li Ming asked while observing Liu Shuyu's expression, "Why did your wife and daughter die of serious illness?"

"The wind... the wind is cold." Liu Shuyu said.

Li Mingda noticed that he had a hesitant expression again, and his expression was very unnatural. His whole body was a little stiffer than before, so he knew that Liu Shuyu's problem lay with his wife and daughter.Li Mingda then asked his wife and daughter what medicine they had taken, and if they had seen a doctor. The wind-cold disease did not kill so soon.

Liu Shuyu lowered his eyes, faltering and hawing but he couldn't make it clear.

Li Mingda can now confirm that there is something wrong with the death of Liu Shuyu's wife and daughter.

"I'll give you one last meeting and tell me the reason for committing the crime," Fang Yi said bluntly, and then fell silent for a while, as if deliberately giving Liu Shuyu time to think, but Liu Shuyu obviously didn't appreciate it, and still kept his mouth tightly shut.

Fang Yizhi immediately looked at Guo Fengmu, the housekeeper of the Changsun Mansion, "I think the cause must be his wife and daughter. Since he refuses to tell, he will open the coffin for an autopsy. Do you know where his wife and daughter died?"

Just as Guo Fengmu was about to speak, Liu Shuyu yelled like crazy.

"No, absolutely not!"

Liu Shuyu panicked, knelt and climbed up to Fang Yi, pleading bitterly: "Their mother and daughter have been buried in the earth, please be kind to Fang Dalang, don't disturb them anymore. They have suffered enough when they are alive, how can I let They continue to suffer after death!"

Liu Shuyu cried and beat the ground as he spoke, extremely angry and annoyed, and hated himself very much.

"As long as you clarify the reason for your killing, I can guarantee that they will be buried in the ground, and no one will disturb them." Fang Yizhi induced.

Liu Shuyuhong stared blankly, her whole body suddenly collapsed, half paralyzed on the ground.After a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and said: "I killed that beast Dao Yuan San San Lang, but I paid my life for my life. He killed my wife and daughter!"

Liu Shuyu raised his head at this time, his eyes were full of anger, and tears rolled down his big man's face, "This beast, he ruined my wife's innocence, even my seven-year-old little My daughter will not be spared either. I want to kill him, I want to tear his flesh and blood, and cut him alive!"

Chang Sun Chong was startled, "What's going on?"

Liu Shuyu was still crying bitterly, shouting that he was sorry for his wife and daughter. His wife and daughter died to protect their names. After death, they should have fulfilled their wishes and left them a clean reputation.But now, because of his nonsense, they lost even their final innocence.

"I can ensure that as few people as possible know about this matter, it will not be spread." Li Mingda said.

Liu Shuyu thanked her, and then explained what happened.

At the beginning of this year, his life was easier and he had some spare money, so he asked someone to send a message home, asking his wife and children to join him in Chang'an City.It’s not too far from his village to Chang’an City, it’s only a three-day journey. Unexpectedly, his wife and daughter were on the official road to Chang’an City, and they were dragged into the woods by Daoyuan Sanjiro who was out on a horse for fun. raped.After they arrived in Beijing, Liu Shuyu knew that something serious had happened when he saw his wife's dazed expression, injuries on her body, and her child cowering and crying.After several times of questioning, his wife faltered and cried and explained what happened clearly.Liu Shuyu was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped his wife, blaming her for not protecting her daughter well.

Li Mingda stared, "You hit her?"

Liu Shuyu closed her eyes fiercely and nodded, tears fell down like strings of beads, "This is a slap I regret so much! Because after this slap, the way she looked at me... I can't tell, but it's very It was scary, maybe it was a kind of despair, and I didn't dare to look at her directly. Later, she hugged the baby and kept crying, crying, without saying a word."

"Then can you coax her after this?" Li Mingda clenched his fists faintly and asked again.

Liu Shuyu was startled and slowly shook his head.

"I didn't, I didn't..." Liu Shuyu wailed, and at this point Fang cried loudly, and then choked up, "When I thought that her body had been... I just... I went back to the Changsun Mansion in a fit of anger, and I didn't go home for two days Look at her. I really don't know how to face her, I really don't know. But on the third day, I finally figured it out, bought some good things and went home, and figured out how to get along with her. I opened the door , The house is so quiet. Why is it so quiet? When it was time to eat, I pushed the door of the main room and saw my wife and seven-year-old daughter hanging on the beam. Their faces were as white as paper, their bodies It's getting cold, I quickly put them down, but no matter how I shout, they won't open their eyes!"

When Liu Shuyu said this, his sobs were extremely sad.

"Heh." Li Mingda sneered.

Liu Shuyu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at Li Mingda suddenly, and then continued, "It was Sanjiro Daoyuan, who killed my wife and children. I swore at that time that I would avenge them! No matter how much I paid The price is to pay for it with my life, I must kill that Dao Yuan San San Lang."

After listening to Liu Shuyu's words, Chang Sun Chong could somewhat understand why he would kill Daoyuan San Sanlang.However, regardless of the occasion, he acted casually in the Changsun Mansion, which made him very resentful.If there is such a poisoning, if his second brother also drank the wine at that time, wouldn't he die in vain.

Liu Shuyu hurriedly explained to Changsun Chong: "I know that Erlang cherishes that wine, so I wouldn't be willing to drink it."

"Once you drink it, you don't care about his life at all, do you?" Chang Sun Chong glared at him angrily.

Liu Shuyu lowered his head guiltily, faltering and admitting that he really didn't think that much at the time.

Chang Sun Chong was so angry that he got up, but then he endured it, turned his back and remained silent.

Li Mingda felt it was ridiculous, "You still don't know where you are wrong, and you think you have avenged your wife and daughter, don't you?"

Liu Shuyu looked at Li Mingda puzzled, as if saying "Isn't it?" "Anyway, at least I am worthy of my wife and daughter".

"If she had been thinking about it, she would not have entered Chang'an City to find you. That incident was not her fault, but because of your indifference, she was so disappointed that she felt that she could not live in this world. In fact, it really killed her The reason is you."

Liu Shuyu stared wide-eyed and couldn't believe it, and kept shaking his head, "No, that's not the case, it was Daoyuan Sansanlang that beast killed her, and I avenged her! No, no, no, that's not the case..." Liu Shuyu said The voice became quieter, and the whole person lay on the ground, lingering on his last breath.

Fang Yizhi asked the four attendants of Daoyuan San Sanlang, and their actions were as Liu Shuyu said.

These four attendants had been panicked for a long time, and now Fang Yizhi looked at them with a guilty conscience. Although they all looked flustered, none of them admitted it.

"You may not know much about our Tang Dynasty's trial methods. For those who deliberately conceal important cases and do not report them, finger piercing with bamboo slices is just the beginning."

The entourage repeated these four words, a little puzzled.

Fang Yi raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Mingda, whether he will be executed or not depends on the princess' will.Seeing Li Mingda nod his head, Fang Yizhi immediately ordered someone to carry it out.

"But I don't know who to choose. The four of you decide on your own."

The four of them panicked and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

Fang Yizhi immediately asked someone to pick one and pulled it out.Not long after, the attendant was dragged in with bleeding fingers, and when he was thrown to the ground, his face was distorted in pain and his body curled up into a ball.

Seeing him like this, the other three knew that this mysterious punishment was very painful.

"It's not a good thing for your Japanese country to cover up the evil deeds of your deputy envoy. If you don't admit this mistake, it's fine. Why does my Tang Dynasty have to associate with a small country that dares to do something?" Fang Fang After saying that, he stood up and asked Li Mingda to tell His Majesty to cut off all business and government affairs with the Wa Kingdom from now on.

The four attendants panicked after hearing this, they quickly knelt down to salute Fang Yizhi and Li Mingda, begging them not to do so.

"When the deputy envoy was out of the city at the beginning of the year, he did attack a woman who was on the way. At that time, there was no one on the official road. The deputy envoy was riding a horse and drinking wine all the way. He might be too drunk. Look at the woman again. Some beauty, just, just..."

"According to what you said, your Deputy Envoy is innocent. Is it the wine's fault?" Li Mingda sneered, "I never thought that you Wa people would dare to do something and dare not admit it, but you would shirk your guilt like this, cowards!"

The four Japanese followers hung their heads, listlessly, not daring to make a sound.

Li Mingda hooked his fingers, summoned Tian Hanshan, and then instructed him a few words.

"Go and call Ashiya Yuanjing here, how can this investigation be done without the 'supervision' of the Japanese." Li Mingda said again.

Not long after, Tian Hanshu brought in a Han Chinese interpreter, and wrote a copy of the testimonies of the four attendants in Chinese characters and Japanese dialect. Li Mingda then ordered the four attendants to sign and mark.

Not long after that, Ashiya Yuanjing hurried over with someone.

Ashiya Yuanjing confirmed that she had asked when she received the news. The murderer, Sun Huan, had not yet been caught, so she felt that Princess Jinyang was not convinced and wanted to investigate the case at night without willfulness.She didn't want to come, but it was hard to refuse, fearing that if she refused, she would turn around and Datang would make the decision to fool the result of the case, so when she entered the door, she still had a bit of resentment, so she opened her mouth to complain.

"It's so late, Chang'an City has been locked at night, why are you still investigating the case? Please, if you don't sleep, I still have to sleep. I really regret that I took a job as a supervisor. The murderer hasn't got it yet, you said you will What else can I check, it's really troublesome."

Ashiyain covered her mouth and deliberately yawned.After finishing talking, she saw a man she didn't know in the room, not to mention handsome, with a style that she had never seen in her life.

Ashiya Yonjing's eyes lit up immediately, and then he realized that this person didn't pay attention to him, and he was a little low-minded.Then she realized that Li Mingda and Chang Sun Chong were looking at her quietly, their eyes were very unusual.

"What do you mean?" Ashiya Yuanjing asked again, and then out of the corner of her eye, she saw four Japanese attendants kneeling at the foot of the main room, all of them trembling with fear.It was only then that Ashiya Yuanjing realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked why.

"Of course the murderer was found, so we dare to bother Master Ashiya-in onmyoji to come here." Li Mingda deliberately said the full name of Ashiya-in's current identity, so he knew that she was the emperor's daughter so what, her current identity to the outside world It's just an onmyoji in the mission.Unless there is a letter written by the Emperor of Japan himself to prove Ashiya Yinjing's identity as the Emperor's daughter, if Li Mingda said that she is an Onmyoji, she must be an Onmyoji.

Ashiya Yujing is familiar with Tang dialect, so she naturally understands Li Mingda's voice-over.She expected that there was something wrong with this matter, and she didn't dare to be as willful and arrogant as before, so she hurriedly asked Li Mingda why.

"Since it is said that the murderer has been found, why did I just ask your guards who came to pass the news, but said that Changsun Huan has not yet been found?"

"Changsun Huan is not the murderer, he is the murderer!" Changsun Chong pointed to Liu Shuyu, who was kneeling in the middle of the ground, with a stern face, obviously he was still in anger.

Ashiya Yuanjing immediately learned that this person's identity was just a small butler of the Changsun's Mansion, and said with a sneer, "I had expected this. In order to keep Changsun Huan, you just picked up a worthless servant to prevaricate us. Princess, you It’s too disrespectful to us Japanese people.”

Tian Hanshuo presented the confessions drawn by the four entourages of Dao Yuan San San Lang to Ashiya Yin Jing.

Ashiya Yuanjing knew Chinese characters very well. After reading the above-mentioned process, she frowned slightly, and then stared sharply at the four attendants.

The four Japanese followers all shrunk their necks, terrified.

Ashiya rolled his eyes quietly, and then smiled kindly, "What am I supposed to be? How can this kind of evidence written in Chinese be convincing? Although they know a little about your country's language, But they are not very literate. They don’t know what you write.”

"Before drawing the pledge, everything in the testimony has been explained to them." Tian Han said.

Ashiya bowed to Li Mingda with a quiet smile, "I'm really sorry to say that when these four testified, who else would know that they could witness this matter except your country? Did the country torture them to extract confessions?"

"Where is the severe punishment? At most, someone broke his finger." Li Mingda finally understood why Fang Yizhi used that kind of punishment to deal with the followers of the Japanese kingdom.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong to extract a confession by torture, but it is always possible for you to coax them into taking a pledge by relying on their ignorance of your country's language."

"I expected it." Li Mingda sneered, "The country of Japan is the country of Japan after all, and the people of Japan are indeed people of Japan."

Li Mingda threw back the folded Japanese testimonial on the table on the ground.

Ashiya was stunned for a moment, holding back his breath for the time being, bent down to pick it up, opened it up, his expression changed drastically.This Princess Jinyang just gave her the testimony in Chinese on purpose just now, just to see her make a lot of ugly appearances, but at this moment, she was slapped in the face!

Ashiya was full of anger and hatred, but he was speechless, so he could only keep silent with a dark face.At this moment, what she hates more in her heart is that those four useless attendants have casually confessed such a big thing in the few hours of her absence.

"Although Daoyuan Sanshilang was killed by my Tang people, his actions made everyone outrageous. The murderer spoke lightly. In order to take into account the reputation of his wife and daughter, it is reasonable to kill him. Since Liu Shuyu committed a crime He deserves to be punished, and he should pay for it with his life. But what should Daoyuan Sanjiro do in Tang Dynasty, raping women and children unscrupulously?"

"He's already dead!" Ashiyain said quietly.

"This onmyoji's ears don't seem to be very useful. Our princess's words are very clear. The life of Sanjiro Daoyuan was offset by the murderer, but what about the two lives that were caused by his rape?" Fang Yi Straightforwardly explained.

Ashiya Yuanjing looked at Fang Yizhi in surprise, she never expected that this man, whom she had a good first impression of, would be so aggressive with just one mouth.What is this, asking them to lie low and be a small country, and make compensation?

Ashiya Yard was unconvinced, "My lord, it's too ridiculous for you to use a mere servant of the Changsun's mansion to lower the life of my Deputy Envoy of the Wa Kingdom."

"It's ridiculous that you, the deputy envoy of the Japanese country, committed a crime that is worse than a beast, even if you pay for it with the lives of pigs and dogs, it would be too expensive."

"You—" Ashiya Yonjing blushed with anger, pursed her lips and was speechless, and was about to leave immediately, "Since the case has been solved, the envoy will discuss the follow-up matters with your Majesty, I'm afraid it won't be of much use if we spend more time here."

Seeing that she was going to leave, Tian Hanshu naturally didn't allow her to play tricks, so he asked for the confession first.

Although Ashiya Yuanjing wanted to protect the interests of her own country and was good at sophistry, she would not behave like a villain in front of others.She was just in a hurry and forgot to hold something in her hand.However, Tian Hanshan's actions made her seem like she was really cheating.Embarrassed and angry, Ashiya Yard yelled at the four attendants, ordering them to go back with her, but was blocked by the Tang guards at the door.

Ashiya Yuanjing looked back and looked at Li Mingda angrily, "I don't know if the princess has anything else to explain?"

Li Mingda: "Since you also said that the case was solved, you agree with our investigation. This matter is because you Japanese were rude first, and my Tang Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Although we treat people kindly, we don't allow others to bully us. Even if you leave, you should apologize first on behalf of your Japanese diplomatic mission."

Ashiya Yard was already embarrassed, but now she was said to be rude, she was even more angry, gritted her teeth, saluted Li Mingda, Changsun Chong and Fang Yizhi, apologized quickly, and then quickly walked away as if to escape leave.

Now that the case has been solved, all that remains is to report and report.Because Li Mingda was very objective and fair when he heard Zhang Sun Chong describe the case before, he asked Chang Sun Chong to help describe it.She went to see Changsun Wuji, and after explaining what had happened, she went to see Princess Changle, whose condition had worsened due to her anxiety.

Li Lizhi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that the case was solved, smiled and took Li Mingda's hand, thanking her in every possible way.Originally wanted her to stay with her for dinner, but when she learned that the matter of Changsun Huan was still unresolved, she hurriedly asked Li Mingda to find her brother-in-law as soon as possible, and don't let him continue to suffer outside.

"He's in Yuchi's mansion, what hardships can he endure, I'm afraid it's more leisurely than being here." Li Mingda smiled and persuaded Li Lizhi to rest assured, asking her to rest in peace and recuperate.

Li Lizhi nodded, and before Li Mingda left, he told her to treat Li Hui'an well and visit her more often.

Li Mingda was stunned, then turned to look at Li Lizhi: "Sister, does she know something? Last time you deliberately instructed me like this. I have always treated Hui'an very well, why is sister so worried?"

Li Lizhi smiled unnaturally, "It's nothing, the main reason is that the child is too young, and a little self-willed and ignorant. I am too worried. It's me who is nagging, don't take it for granted."

"Fifth Sister, you're being polite." Li Mingda knew that Li Lizhi had something to hide from him, but seeing her sick appearance, Li Mingda naturally couldn't bear to press her further.

After leaving the room, Li Mingda heard Li Lizhi's sighs in the room several times, and Li Mingda unconsciously slowed down.

Then, I heard Li Lizhi and her eldest maid Bai Lu say: "I don't trust Hui'an, I'm afraid she's too simple-minded and won't listen to me, she won't be able to beat her Nineteenth Sister. I hate my weak body, Can't enter the palace."

"Why don't the servants find a way to send a message to the palace, asking Princess 21 to come to the Changsun Mansion?"

"No need, she is approaching her eighth birthday, and it's time for her to be appointed. It's the busiest time, so it's not appropriate to bother her. Besides, I'm afraid she won't listen to me. She has always liked her Nineteenth Sister the most. I'm afraid my son Even if he asks her to kill someone, this silly child is willing to do it."

Then Bai Lu agreed, nothing special.

Li Mingda heard that he had nothing to say, so he left quickly, joined Fang Yizhi, and went to Yuchi's mansion together to meet Changsun Huan.

Seeing them coming, Yuchi Baoqi pretended a few words, claiming that Changsun Huan was not there.But Fang Yi stared at him, and he felt guilty.It's all because of his sloppiness, he told Fang Yizhi the truth before.Who knew that Fang Yizhi was not as gentlemanly as he looked, and he was as stingy as he was, so he told the princess.

"Tell him to come out." Li Mingda said immediately after taking the first seat.

Yuchi Baoqi suddenly felt the mighty aura from the princess, hurriedly agreed, and then sent someone away.After a while, Changsun Huan walked over slowly.When he saw Li Mingda and Fang Yizhi, his first reaction was to turn around and run.

"The case is solved, the murderer is Liu Shuyu."

Li Mingda's words made Zhang Sun Huan immediately turn around and rush into the room with a smile on his face.

"Good cousin, is what you said true?"

Immediately after learning what happened, Changsun Huan clapped his hands happily and bowed to Li Mingda and Fang Yizhi to thank them for saving him, otherwise he really didn't know what to do in the future.

"Run away if something happens, coward!" Yuchi Baoqi rolled his eyes at him, hurting him.

"Fuck! If I don't hide, those people will definitely think that I am the murderer. They will not investigate other than interrogating me every day. How smart I am, I have used my brain, what do you know?" Eldest grandson Huan turned against Yuchi Baoqi.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, follow me into the palace." Li Mingda said goodbye to Yuchi Baoqi.

Yuchi Baoqi was originally on the case investigation list handpicked by the sage, and she clamored to go with her.

Li Mingda just let him go, anyway, he was not the one who suffered in the end.

When the group arrived at the Lizheng Hall, a young eunuch informed Li Mingda that Changsun Chong and Changsun Wuji had already met and stated the case.Li Mingda then took Fang Yizhi and others to see Li Shimin, and she resigned after briefly explaining what happened, and she didn't worry about the rest of the finishing matters, and let those people discuss it.

In the middle of the night, the lights of Wanjia had already been extinguished, and Fang Xuanling was called into the palace urgently.Before dawn the next day, Fang Yizhi, Yuchi Baoqi and others withdrew from the Lizheng Hall.

After leaving the palace, Yuchi Baoqi and Fang Yizhi yawned and complained.

"Standing all night, I still dare not move casually in front of the saint. I can't move my legs anymore. If I had known it would take so long, I wouldn't have gone. Why should I suffer?"

Fang Yizhi: "The case involves other countries, so naturally it will be more troublesome. Why, you didn't expect it?"

"If you think of it, you should tell me!" Yuchi Baoqi cried.

"The princess is here, it's inconvenient." Fang Yi said with a cold face, and rode away.

Yuchi Baoqi let out an "eh", seeing that Fang Yizhi couldn't be called, so he let it go, helplessly letting his attendants lead the horse away slowly, his leg hurts, but it's not as good as Fang Yizhi's bones.

Outside the Wude Hall.

Li Mingda, who had a good night's sleep, was very energetic, but now she was standing here hesitating, wondering whether she should go in to find Li Hui'an.

But a little eunuch from the palace greeted her and told Li Mingda that Princess 21 slept late last night because of preparations for the canonization, so she was still awake.He specially came to ask Li Mingda what he meant, whether to call or not.

"No." Li Mingda said without thinking.

The wind was a little cold in the morning, so Tian Hanshan specially ordered someone to bring another coat and the princess.Before Li Mingda put it on, he smelled a scent very similar to the lotus handkerchief, and immediately asked Tian Hanshan where he got it from.

Tian Hanxi thought for a while, "Your lord, you told the slave to change to a different kind of incense every day. If there is any other smell on it, it must be contaminated with the incense that the maid lit just now."

"Get it here."

Tian Hanshan promised, and after a while, he brought a small incense burner.

Li Mingda confirmed that it was this fragrance.

The eunuch of the Wude Palace who was spreading the word on the side smelled the fragrance and said with a smile: "As expected of sisters, it is the same as what our lord used to use."

"Really," Li Mingda looked at the little eunuch, "but I remember that she didn't have this kind of fragrance recently."

"It happened after your lord fell off the cliff. She always said that she could smell blood, so the slaves changed to a stronger incense, which is better."

"Smell of blood? She was on the cliff at the time, could she smell the smell of blood on my body?"

The little eunuch nodded, indicating that their lord said so at the time.

Li Mingda turned to ask Tian Hanshan quietly, if he was there at the time, did he also smell blood.

Tian Hanshu: "I have a good nose. I was on the cliff at the time and I didn't smell it. The distance is far away, and if there is a wind blowing south, your lord's blood has already melted in the stream. It shouldn't be so. What does it smell like?"
