The Aloof Prince Pampers His Wild First Rate Consort

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

"Bring in." Yun Guangyao waved his hand, motioning to bring the captured servant in.

After a while, two imperial guards escorted a man in, pushed him to the ground, and knelt in front of Yun Guangyao.

"I report to my lord, I was patrolling the city today, and I saw this man sneaking around and trading money with others. After being caught by the humble officials, he looked flustered again. After interrogation, he said that he was a servant of the Shangshu Mansion." A forbidden man After Wei Jun finished speaking, he looked at Lin Zhiyang and Lin Mengwei at the side.

At this time, Lin Mengwei, who was kneeling on the ground, was holding her fingers tightly, trying her best to keep herself calm, thinking of one set of rhetoric after another in her mind.

"Shaoliu, why is it you?" Lin Zhiyang was also stunned when he saw this servant in his house.

Then, he turned his head again, looked at Lin Mengwei in disbelief, and secretly thought it was broken!

This Shaoliu had waited by Mengwei's side since he was a child, and obeyed Mengwei's words. Could it be that Mengwei instructed her, as the little girl Mu said?

Thinking of this possibility, Lin Zhiyang's complexion gradually collapsed.

"Lin Qing knows this person?" Yun Guangyao looked at Lin Zhiyang.

Lin Zhiyang nodded and didn't say much.

Seeing this, Yun Guangyao winked at An Guoshi, indicating that he would interrogate him next.

An Guoshi understood, and looked down at Shaoliu who was kneeling, "Trading money with others, what's going on, tell us about it."

Shaoliu was stunned, swallowed, and then timidly glanced at Yun Guangyao's direction, clasped his hands on his knees, whether it was from nervousness or something else, the veins on the back of his hands bulged.

"The villain likes to gamble and owes a lot of debts, so, so..."

Shaoliu finished speaking halfway, looked at the direction where Lin Mengwei was kneeling, then bowed his head and kowtowed, "So the villain stole some jewelry from Missy while she was not at home, and used them to pay off her gambling debt."

After Shaoliu said this, Lin Mengwei on the side secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It really was someone by her side. This excuse is really beautiful.

"It turned out that he stole something to pay off his gambling debt, no wonder he was sneaky." An Guoshi followed Shaoliu's words.

Shaoliu nodded.

"By the way, can anyone who traded with him be captured together?" An Guoshi changed the subject and looked at the guards at the side.

The Imperial Guard nodded, "They were caught together, and they are waiting outside the door."

"Bring it in." An Guoshi said.

After the words fell, the Imperial Guard turned around and walked out of the study.

At this time, Lin Mengwei also took the opportunity to look over at Shaoliu, the two eyes met in mid-air, Shaoliu nodded slightly to Lin Mengwei, signaling her to rest assured.

"By the way, do you know what will happen if you lie in front of the monarch?" An Guoshi patted Shaoliu on the shoulder lightly, and pointed to Yun Guangyao who was sitting on the main seat.

Shaoliu shrank his body.

"You are from Shangshu's mansion. If you commit a crime, it means that Lord Shangshu has not been strict in discipline and deceived the current monarch. If you are guilty of crimes, you will be beheaded by the whole house." An Guoshi said in a relaxed tone.

Shaoliu saw this kind of scene for the first time, and said that he was not afraid, it must be a lie, but if he changed his words now, he would definitely not get a good end, so he might as well give it a go.

Just as he was talking, the imperial guards arrested another man who had traded with Shaoliu.

Compared with Shaoliu's calmness, the man was obviously much more frightened. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down and shouted, "My lord, please forgive me. Caomin is just an ordinary citizen who doesn't know anything."

"What are you trading with this person today?" An Guoshi signaled him to be quiet, then pointed at Shaoliu.

Hearing this, the man slowly raised his head, and glanced at the people in this room from the corner of his eye, his whole body trembled more and more. He was a commoner, and he had never seen such a battle before.

"Yes, yes..." The man stammered nervously, and said tremblingly, "He came to me last night and asked me to help him spread some things. After the matter is completed, give me a certain amount of money."

"You're talking nonsense!" Shaoliu quickly denied, thinking in his heart that this damned commoner had obviously given him a large sum of money to seal it up, but he didn't expect it to come out just like that.

The man's face was more bitter than mourning at this time, "How dare I talk nonsense, this is a matter of losing my head, even if I lend me a hundred courage, I dare not talk nonsense."

"How much money did he give you, and what did he ask you to spread?" An Guoshi asked.

Hearing this, the man took out two bills from his sleeve, "He gave me three bills from the pawn shop, and asked me to use these bills to go to the pawn shop to get money."

"He asked me to spread the news about Miss Mu's assassination of the Crown Prince, and told me to go to court this morning and spread the news to the whole city."

After finishing speaking, the man wailed again, "In the grass-roots family, there are old and young, and it is really hard for one person to support the family. This is why he was confused by the money. Please forgive me, the villain will never dare again..."

An Guoshi took the receipt, glanced at it, and presented it to Yun Guangyao, "Look, my lord, this is a receipt for jewelry. This servant of the Shangshufu is quite smart, knowing that he will show his feet if he takes over the money, so he still pays for it." Thinking about it this way."

"With this receipt for jewelry, the common people can go directly to the pawnshop to get the money. The money they get comes from the pawnshop, and there will be no clues from the Shangshufu."

Yun Guangyao glanced at the bill, then at Lin Zhiyang and Lin Mengwei, "Do you have anything to say?"

Lin Zhiyang's mood at this time was the same as that of Prime Minister Mu in the morning. He was conscientious and abiding by his duties as an official in the court. He did not expect to give birth to such a troublesome daughter.

What can I say now?

If the son doesn't teach, the father's fault is all his responsibility.

"My lord, it's my minister who has no way to teach her children. I am willing to accept the crime. It's just that Mengwei is still young and doesn't know how to behave. I also ask the lord to spare her life." After Lin Zhiyang finished speaking, Chaoyun Guangyao kowtowed three times.

Lin Mengwei was not convinced. Regardless of her father pleading guilty, she pointed at the commoner, "How can you take the words of any commoner seriously? Who knows if he deliberately slandered me?"

"Then how to explain this bill?" An Guoshi asked.

"Didn't Shaoliu say that he stole my jewelry to mortgage his gambling debts?" Lin Mengwei said.

Master An sighed, and shook his head helplessly, "Little girl, you really don't want to die until you reach the Yellow River. If that's the case, then my master will let you meet a few more people."

After speaking, An Guoshi waved to a young eunuch beside him.

The little eunuch hurried out the door.

This time, a group of people walked outside.

This group of people entered the door and packed Yun Guangyao's study to the brim. Finally, Yun Guangyao ordered to go to the main hall outside to discuss matters.

After moving the place, those who should be sitting are still sitting, and those who should be kneeling are still kneeling.

"Master, what do these people do?" Yun Guangyao asked.

"My lord, these people are all people who dined at the Yunlou Restaurant at noon yesterday. According to their confessions, all of them have heard Miss Lin incite Miss Mu to act as a murderer." After An Guoshi finished speaking, Blinked at the first person.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly said, "The villain was having dinner at the Yunlou Restaurant yesterday, and later I heard that this young lady conspired to let that young lady perform a play so that she can marry into the Prince's Mansion."

"That's right, we heard it too. When the young lady said it, she looked around..."

"Yes, yesterday one of them was wearing emerald green clothes, and the other was wearing rose pink..."

"..."

This group of people talked in a hurry in the hall, and all they said was that they had heard about Lin Mengwei's incitement to Mu Ai.

With such a group of people appearing all of a sudden, it was hard for Lin Mengwei to argue.

An Guoshi stood aside, listened to what these people said, touched his nose, and cast an admiring look at Chu Li who was beside him.

This trick reverses black and white, it's really good.

Mu Yunjin is a martial arts practitioner, and with her keen hearing, she could barely hear the conversation between Mu Ai and Lin Mengwei. These poor people probably didn't even hear a word.

Just after they discussed the countermeasures, Yun Lianqing cast a net and sent a lot of people to find the people who had dinner at the Yunlou Restaurant at noon yesterday, and gave them some benefits to let them unite to say these confessions.

When the crown prince came forward, how could these ordinary people not listen?

Naturally, they all followed to the palace to testify against Miss Lin.

Lin Mengwei bit her lip, listening to the non-stop 'testimonies' in her ear, her unwillingness and resentment burst out at this moment.

"You are deceiving people too much!" Lin Mengwei said, stood up, pointed at An Guoshi, and pointed at Yun Lianqing.

"Isn't it because you want to protect Mu's family? As for letting so many people give false testimony? When I talked to Mu Ai, I whispered in her ear. Are you all good ears? Can you listen so carefully? "

"Although I encouraged Mu Ai, I just said it casually. Who knew that this idiot would actually do it!"

"Now, she, who bought the murder to assassinate the prince, is reduced to a prank by you, and I, who was mentioned casually, are called a heinous sinner by you!"

With that said, Lin Mengwei walked towards Lin Zhiyang, making gestures to help him up, "Father, stop kneeling, look at these people, just because our Shangshu's mansion is a head shorter than the prime minister's mansion, they are defending everywhere, why are you still kneeling here?" ?”

"Pa..." Lin Zhiyang was annoyed, and slapped Lin Mengwei hard on the face, "Shut up!"

Lin Mengwei covered her face, and at this moment, two imperial guards rushed up and restrained her, making her unable to move.

"Eh? Shaoliu, why are you here?" At this moment, a male voice appeared in the crowd, and he seemed to be very surprised to see Shaoliu kneeling beside him.

Hearing this voice, Shaoliu shook his body, looked back, and asked in surprise, "Second brother?"

"It's me, why are you here? I have been to the Shangshu Mansion to look for you several times, but you are not here. I want to tell you that the old lady is already seriously ill. I am afraid it will only be a few days. If you If you have time, go back and see her."

After the words fell, Shaoliu frowned, and there was a little more meaning in his eyes.

At this moment, a secret voice came to Shaoliu's ears, "Boy, my national teacher will give you two ways now, one way is to tell the truth about what Lin Mengwei instructed you, and my national teacher will protect your life. Another one, you can continue to give perjury evidence for Lin Mengwei, if you lie to the monarch, it will be a crime against the entire family."

"At that time, all your relatives and clansmen will all die because of you..."
