Liang Yuan and Wen jinniang look on coldly at the young man of the prime minister's house and Lan Xin, the maid of the third prince, who strongly denies a firm accusation.
Wen jinniang saw that they had different opinions. No one could say who they were. There was a certain posture that the public said that the public was reasonable, and the old woman said that the old woman was reasonable. According to this situation, she could not get a result until dark.
Liang Yuan twisted his eyebrows and looked at Lan Xin, who obviously had a personal relationship with the fourth prince. Because he had no evidence and could not scare the snake, he had to find another way.
"Lanxin, since you accuse this young man of being a murderer, then I will detain him for a while. As for you..." Liang Yuan pauses and says, "you have to go back to the Yamen with me."
"Why? The slave is the victim
"You are the victim, but you are also the most suspect. After all, except for the boy you accused, you were the only one who was closest to the third prince at that time."
Wen jinniang looks at Lan Xin's reckless appearance. She is not happy. For such an obviously problematic maid to waste time here, it's better to go back to see Xiao Qi and let him practice at ease.
"Miss Lanxin, Lord Liang wants you to go back to the Yamen to cooperate with the investigation, not to convict you. It's not a good thing for you to evade and pass it to the emperor. Do you want the emperor to interrogate you in person?"
In this era, the emperor's power is supreme. Anyway, Liang Yuan has a token from the emperor. It's not offensive to move the emperor out now.
Sure enough, when Wen jinniang mentioned the emperor, Lan Xin's heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney trembled for three times. She pursed her mouth and didn't say a word. That's the meaning of going to Yamen.
The boy wanted to cry out for injustice, touched Liang Yuan's eyes and subconsciously shut his mouth.
Such a good-looking adult, should not wrongly kill innocent people, right?
Liang Yuan orders people to detain Xiaosi and Lanxin separately, and then sends someone to guard them carefully before taking wenjinniang back to the house.
Yang Qi learned a lot of interesting things today. When Liang Yuan and his wife came back, Yang Qi was studying chess notation.
"Sister, come back."
Wen jinniang blinked her eyes and thought she was listening. She just looked at the boy holding the chess score and placing black and white on the chessboard.
Yang Qi didn't hear any sound. He looked up at the stunned Wen jinniang.
"Sister?"
Liang yuanpo some gratified pinched Wen jinniang's hand, motioned her to come back to give Yang Qi an appropriate response.
Wen jinniang reacted and felt like she had won the grand prize. Looking at Yang Qi's face, she almost wanted to pinch it. Fortunately, her reason was still there, and she stifled it.
"Well, come back, you go on. We won't disturb you. Let the kitchen send you some scallion cake later."
"Good."
Wen jinniang pulls Liang Yuan out of Yang Qi '.
"Husband, do you think it means keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon?"
"Naturally, he is a child. His heart is not made of iron. You have done so much for him these days, so it is inevitable that he will be loose."
Liang Yuan still has something to say from his heart. He's making room for this smelly boy these days. He's watching his daughter-in-law's heart rush on him. If there's no sign of improvement, Liang Yuan thinks he's going to explode.
But then again, Liang Yuan silently recalled how Wen jinniang treated Yang Qi. Suddenly, he missed Xiao Sijin very much. It's just that he can't leave the capital at will and is in danger. It seems that he has to endure the pain of missing his daughter for a long time.
At night, after washing, Wen jinniang and Liang Yuan sat on the bed and thought about the countermeasures.
To let Lanxin take the initiative to give up the relationship with the fourth prince, but at present, the odds are not good.
Lan Xin makes it clear that she is going to blame the prime minister's family. Wen jinniang thinks that the prime minister's motive is too far fetched. But if she can't find the real murderer, it's inevitable for the emperor to take the prime minister's knife. After all, it's a prince who has to die. Otherwise, the royal dignity is a joke.
Liang Yuan pinches the sour bridge of the nose. It's not good to punish Lan Xin. How can she take the initiative to fight against the fourth prince?
"Husband, suppose Lanxin is the real murderer who killed the third prince. How likely do you think it is?"
"You have examined the body of the third prince and sealed your throat with a sword, but Lanxin is not a martial arts practitioner, which is enough to prove that she is not a murderer."
"If she is an accomplice, the murderer will knock her unconscious after killing her, deliberately create a dynamic static, lead out the boy, and then tell Lanxin to identify the boy, this can be connected."
"According to the lady's conjecture, the fourth Prince is the mastermind behind the scenes. He takes advantage of the Empress Dowager to pick himself out of the affair. The key to the third prince's murder lies in Lanxin."
The big yellow bean candle emits a hazy halo. Liang Yuan and Wen jinniang comb what should be combed and plan to meet Lanxin again tomorrow.
Although they both lay down and closed their eyes, they didn't show any sign of falling asleep. They listened to each other's light and heavy breathing, but they didn't make a sound.
Wen jinniang feels tired every day in this undercurrent capital, but if she admits defeat, it's not her own way of doing things, and Liang Yuan is not a person who gives up easily.
Put aside the complicated thoughts, Wen jinniang estimates the time. If she doesn't sleep, she won't have much spirit to accompany Liang Yuan to investigate the case tomorrow. She has to meditate in her heart and go to sleep peacefully. But after only three times, Wen jinniang suddenly sits up.
"What's the matter, jinniang? But what's wrong? "
Liang Yuan also immediately sat up and nervously grasped Wen jinniang.
"I think of it! My husband, I have a way
Liang Guan looks at Wen jinniang with shining eyes, and the haze in her heart dissipates a little. Wen Sheng asks.
"How?"
Wen jinniang narrowed her eyes and looked very proud. She looked like a cunning fox. She leaned towards Liang Yuan's arms and whispered in his ear. Liang Yuan's expression was gradually unable to laugh or cry.
"This is your way..."
"What? Do you have a problem? "
"I dare not. How dare I have any opinions about my husband? I'm afraid it's difficult to implement it."
"I know it's hard to make an article about the third prince's body, but isn't the emperor more concerned about the truth? Then he has to sacrifice the third prince. "
Liang Yuan stroked his forehead, but he couldn't help scraping Wen jinniang's nose.
"So you think it's the third prince's body that's difficult?"
"What else?"
Wen jinniang blinks her eyes and looks at Liang Yuan. She can't figure out how difficult it is to use the third prince's body.
"Lady, don't you think it's more difficult for master meditation to lie?"
Wenjinniang smell speech small rolled white eyes, the correct way of the word.
"We are going to seek the cooperation of meditation master tomorrow. It's not a lie."
Liang Yuan's words have come to his mouth, and he turns around and swallows them. In line with the difference between acting and lying, if he has to argue for a result, I'm afraid nobody will sleep tonight. It's better to keep up her spirits and accompany Wen jinniang to Lingguang temple tomorrow to try her luck.
