Dayong Nu sentenced to death

Chapter 751 The Broken Corner, Zhongyuan Festival

The two have their own calculations in their hearts.

Seeing her silence for a long time, Xie Yin frowned deeply, and said in a low voice, "There is something strange about the death of your highness. I also found some news when I was in Waliang Pass."

He paused tactically, Su Rao looked up.

The two looked at each other, Xie Yin tentatively said: "It's about the second uncle."

Su Rao didn't answer, her eyes said a lot, Xie Yin said: "The people who accompanied the army back then can no longer be found, only some old people in the city have memories."

"Over the years, I have made unannounced visits to various places, and found out that my second uncle once stayed in Fengcheng. After Fengcheng was saved, he moved to other places with the remaining soldiers. He was not passive and idle like he wrote to the court back then. Disobeying military orders."

"If you want to talk about resisting orders, it means that he stayed in Fengcheng and saved the people in that city, but the order to abandon the city did not come from the mouth of the general. He left in a hurry when the war ended, just to support."

"The Fengcheng you mentioned is Jinse's hometown..."

When staying in the listening garden, in order to relieve Zhou Yin, Nan Jinse took the initiative to mention that battle. She said that the guards abandoned the city and fled. There was only one civil servant who took the lead and defended the city. Finally, the reinforcements came.

So... is it Xie Fei?
Xie Yin was surprised: "Did she tell you?"

"Ah."

Su Rao nodded silently, it seems that the matter of Xie Fei and the death of that highness are entangled again, if they want to investigate, they have to investigate together.

The two tacitly had a tacit agreement to act in the future.

"Over there in the palace... You should handle it carefully."

Xie Yin warned: "You are now a favorite of the imperial court, and you are generally in the limelight. Because of this, once His Majesty finds out that you have the same thoughts as your father, he will never tolerate you."

"I know."

As soon as Su Rao stepped into the court, she knew the pros and cons. She thought that Emperor Qian Ding had some plans on Father's affairs to show his 'loyalty', so she staged such a scene in the palace.

Thinking about it now, Emperor Qian Ding's pity and guilt at that time were the same as hers, and it was hard to tell how much was true and how much was false.

Xie Yin's body was a little numb after sitting for too long, and he tried to change his position by holding on to the side of the bed, but when he pulled the wound forcefully, his scalp was numb due to the pain, and he couldn't help gasping for air.

The whole person fell back again.

Hearing this sound, Su Rao saw cold sweat on his forehead, got up and picked up a soft pillow on the other side, helped him sit up, stuffed it behind his waist, "Lean on."

It took Xie Yin a long time to get through the tearing pain.

The corners of her mouth twitched, and just as she was about to say thank you, Su Rao sneered, "Even if you want to play tricks, you don't have to do such a cruel thing to yourself, do you?"

"It takes at least half a month to get up and move around."

Xie Yin stared at her, stunned for a while, then shook his head and laughed: "Do I seem to be so risky?"

"Ok?"

Su Rao looked at him suspiciously.

Xie Yin said: "I did find killers to play with me, but before they could make a move, those people came."

"..."

At first Xie Yin thought it was a temporary change in the plan, but after just two moves, he realized that these masters were definitely not the ones he was looking for.

Su Rao said: "Who wants to kill you?"

"Too many, I don't know."

These words were so familiar, Su Rao secretly shed a cold sweat, Xie Yin said: "That's fine, if there's a lot of noise, the palace won't be able to let me out of Beijing anymore."

It's enough for him to stay.

"Don't think about it, let's talk about it after recovering from the injury."

Su Rao finished asking what she wanted to know, so she couldn't stay in the room for too long, so she stood up, "We can't get too close, if you have anything to say, you can ask Jin Se to bring it to me."

"it is good."

"Where is that person now?"

Xie Yin knew who she was asking, and said bluntly: "In a very safe place, when the time comes, she will show up."

Su Rao didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, and walked out of the room slowly.

Nan Jinse came up to meet her, looked at her probingly, Su Rao smiled and said: "I'm so good to take care of Mr. Xie, if the Ministry of Punishment needs it, I will come again."

"Row."

Seeing her look the same, Nan Jinse thought she should have said something, with a grateful smile on her face, "Let's go to relax when we are free."

Thinking of the embarrassment that night, the corners of Su Rao's mouth twitched slightly, she smiled without saying a word.

They left with Xun Zeli.

Although they didn't get any useful information, regarding the case of Xie Yin's assassination, the Ministry of Criminal Justice still had to show the attitude it should have, and searched "busily" for several days.

In the end, Su Rao went to Emperor Gan Ding to plead guilty.

Emperor Gan Ding didn't blame her, but only ordered the soldiers of the five cities and the people of Jingzhao Mansion to strengthen their patrols, and the matter was temporarily revealed.

Xie Yin was injured and couldn't go to the border.

The border town still needs to be guarded. In the end, Otsuka's governor, Lu Chuqing, recommended a person who was just promoted by the local government. He was known for his military exploits.

After Yan Yun and Su Rao passed the letter, they decided not to tell the prince about Xie and the eldest princess, and make a decision after all investigations and evidence.

Otherwise, it will be difficult for him to be caught in the middle.

During these days, the eldest princess often came to the mansion, sometimes sitting idle, and sometimes delivering food. To Su Rao's surprise, Xiao Nan's attitude towards her improved a little.

It can't be said that they are close, and they are not as conflicted as they were at first.

In addition to teaching Xiaonan to practice martial arts and handling official business, Su Rao's young wives often invite her to the house for a small gathering.

The old lady liked her very much, and counted the days hoping that she would marry.

The younger generations of the Yan family were also very enthusiastic. Hui Xiaowu was still thinking about the incident of climbing over the wall and entering Ban Yue Xiaozhu to make 'ruthless remarks'. Whenever he saw her, he would always dodge and dodge, which was very funny.

In a blink of an eye, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival again.

On the day of her father's death, Su Rao set up a small case, burned the paper silently, and sat in front of the paper ashes for half the night.

Xiao Nan and Yan Yun also stayed outside for half the night.

Zhongyuan worships ancestors and mourns the dead.

Today is the big festival.

The palace was free of morning court, and all the officials had a rest for a day. She went to the yamen to review some files in the morning, and returned to the mansion in the afternoon.

Xun Zeli and the others who usually hang around with her are also not there, only Xiao San and the others, their home is not here, so they have no way to say goodbye, so they made an appointment to have a drink together.

"My lord, are you going?"

Old Hei asked.

Su Rao shook her head, and threw them some coins, "You guys go, have fun."

Several people smiled and took the money, and walked away with their shoulders crossed.

Su Rao took advantage of the opportunity to give the rest of the mansion a holiday, and in the end only Xiao Nan and her master were left to accompany her.

Not long after, someone from the palace called them away.

Master Qingdeng was born in the royal family, and Xiao Nan is the son of the eldest princess, so he is also considered half of the royal family, so he has to participate in the sacrifice in the palace and pray for the Supreme Emperor.

Su Rao was the only one left in the entire mansion.

She thought about it, and decided to go to the restaurant by the lake to bang bang luck. Although the matter of Shenxian San was a business last time, Zhen Yu helped her a lot, so she should thank her.

Otherwise, it was an emergency, and she really didn't know where to find that thing.

The old location by the window of the restaurant.

As soon as Su Rao climbed to the second floor, she saw that familiar figure looking out from the window, with wide sleeves and flowing wind, as if melting into the glow.
