Qian Yin was anxious and asked, "What should we do now? Just now, it must be the seventh Prince who instigated the seventh princess to do so. The seventh Princes must have planned to create rumors to make things worse for His Highness. How about I catch Hua Yutong and ask her to tell the truth?"
Yun Shang shook her head, but gradually calmed down. "Since the seventh Prince wants to slander His Highness and frame him, he must have prepared a lot of evidences. Now we don't know what kind of trump card he has. If we takes action rashly, it might put us at a disadvantage."
"Qin Yi." Yun Shang raised her head to look at Qin Yi. "Wang Wanzhi is most likely to be there when His Majesty interrogate the seventh Prince. Send a message to her and ask her to deliver a letter telling about the situation of the trial every half an hour by the carrier pigeon."
"Qian Yin, ask all our spies in the city to be on standby. If there is any news, they'll take action immediately."
"Hua'er, send someone to spread some rumor secretly today. Tell them that the seventh princess came to the Crown Prince's Mansion to complain tearfully to me that the seventh Prince paid regular visits to brothels and had never spent a night in her room."
Yun Shang ordered in an orderly way. The three of them answered and left the room to make their own arrangements. Yun Shang sat in the room, tapping on the edge of the bench with a frown.
She didn't know what kind of evidences Xia Houjing would show, but she had to ensure that when Xia Houjing showed the evidence, she would be able to find the evidence before Xia Huanyu and change all the evidences.
This time, the competition was not about wisdom, but speed. Her numerous spies in the Jin City finally came in handy.
While waiting, time passed the most slowly. Yun Shang felt fidgety, so she took a book to read, making herself calm down. After a while, Qin Yi came in with a bamboo tube.
Yun Shang's eyes lit up. She took the bamboo tube and took the letter out of it, only to find that it was not Wang Wanzhi's letter, but Luo Qingyan's handwriting.
The letter must have been written in a hurry, with only two short lines. "All the evidences point to Xia Houjing. There is a trap. I sent Luo Qi back. You can ask him to mobilize all the secret guards for you."
Yun Shang sprang to her feet. As she expected, Xia Houjing wanted to accuse Luo Qingyan of framing him regardless of brotherhood.
No wonder he had been so respectful to Luo Qingyan recently. He had designed all this on purpose to frame Luo Qingyan.
Yun Shang crumpled the note into a ball, with a cold expression on her face. This time, although he entangled Luo Qingyan, he ignored her. She would definitely not let him be satisfied.
Qin Yi handed the letter to Yun Shang and left in a hurry.
Qian Yin and Hua'er also returned to the room one after another. "Your Highness, everything is ready."
Ning Qian also followed Qian Yin and Hua Er into the room, looking like she was watching a good show. "There is such a good show. Why didn't master send someone
ow why Yun Shang asked him to do so, but he quickly responded. He whistled and saw two secret guards coming in from the open window. Luo Qi handed over the things in his hands and said, "Just do as Her Highness Crown Princess ordered."
The two of them took them and jumped out of the room quickly.
Yun Shang frowned and asked, "Have they been standing by in the South Yard?"
Luo Qi nodded and replied in a low voice. "His Highness has left all the kung fu masters in the South Yard. As I'm just at the medium level, so I was taken by His Highness."
Yun Shang fell silent. Her heart seemed to be scratched hard. She felt a little painful, but more moved.
Soon, the second piece of evidence came.
"When the guard at the city gate was about to lock the gate three days ago, he saw the carriage of the Seventh Prince's Mansion had left the city. Later, in the dense forest outside the city, not far from the place where the body of the Imperial Astronomer was found, the marks of the wheel were found. The patterns left by the wheels were the unicorn totems that could only be used by the royal family."
After hearing Qin Yi's words, Yun Shang sneered, "If it's not Xia Houjing's trick, I will doubt his intelligence. But if it is, why did he use his own carriage to transport the corpses. How could he bring himself into trouble?"
"The marks here are too obvious. But how can he frame the Crown Prince by this? After all, the marks were left by a carriage from the Seventh Prince's Mansion." Qian Yin whispered.
Yun Shang frowned and kept silent for a long time. Then she said, "What do you think the seventh Prince would do if he planned to frame His Highness?"
Qin Yi thought for a while and said, "Most likely, he will make a fuss about what Your Highness said just now. If it was the seventh Prince who ordered people to kill the officials, he would definitely not transport the corpses by the carriage of the Seventh Prince's Mansion. The seventh Prince will definitely say that someone deliberately used the carriage to frame him."
