After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 184 Watching a show! ?
The reason why Li Lingyue stopped him was because he discovered Li Changxiao's abnormal behavior.

According to common sense, once the real culprit is discovered, the first reaction must be to question him face to face, rather than rush to the back house.

Furthermore, Li Changxiao was clearly eager to get the antidote before, but now that the real murderer has been identified, he just forgot about this. Could it be that he didn't even care about his father's life?

Therefore, Li Lingyue became suspicious and stepped forward to stop it.

But what she didn't expect was that Zhao Weiting actually stood up to stop him. Since the other party was the biggest official in Dongdu, it was naturally difficult for her to intervene. She raised her hand to signal and gave up the right to speak.

Zhao Weiting bowed to Li Changxiao and suggested: "Your Majesty, now that the murderer has been confirmed, he will be handed over to the custody of the government. Your Majesty, please rest assured. In this lowly position, you will be interrogated strictly to find out the truth about the murder of your prince. Please also ask your Majesty to bring Xiao to justice." Hand over the humble position!"

Zhao Weiting's words are not unreasonable. Such a big thing as murdering Prince Yu has violated the laws of the Tang Dynasty and will definitely be tried by the government. By doing this, Zhao Weiting not only gives an explanation to Prince Yu's palace, but also gives an explanation to the court.

However, Li Changxiao refused without thinking: "No, this is a family matter of Prince Yu's Palace. It can only be decided by the Palace of Prince Yu, so I won't bother Zhao Fumu."

"This……"

Zhao Weiting did not expect that Li Changxiao would refuse in person, and was stunned for a moment.

Li Lingyue winked at He Shan, who understood and immediately stood up to refute:

"Fart, Mr. Xiao murdered the prince of the royal family. This is a heinous crime. How can you interrogate it privately? I am an inspector sent by your Majesty to the Eastern Capital. I have the right to take the prisoner back to the government office to await trial. Please get out of my way. !”

He Shancai ignored Li Changxiao's reaction and strode towards the high platform, preparing to arrest the person himself.

"Let's see who dares!" Li Changxiao roared and shouted towards the door: "Come here!"

In an instant, dozens of sword-wielding guards swarmed outside the gate. Under Li Changxiao's order, they drew their sabers one after another and surrounded all the guests in the hall.

"Your Majesty, no!" Kang Shun, the old butler, saw that Li Changxiao was out of control and quickly stepped forward to stop him.

Everyone in the hall was stunned by Li Changxiao's coquettish tricks. No one would have thought that Li Changxiao would actually make enemies of the entire Dongdu City dignitary for a suspect who murdered his own father.

Seeing the tense situation, the governor Wendeju quickly asked loudly: "Prince, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to go against the government?"

Before Li Changxiao could respond, He Shan provoked him in a strange and sinister manner: "Not only are you going against the government, I now suspect that the prince wants to kill someone and silence him. Is it possible that there is an ulterior secret behind the murder of King Yu?"

As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. He Shan's words immediately aroused a lot of discussion. The more Li Changxiao protected Xiao Jing'er, the more people started to make groundless speculations.

"Don't slander my heir apparent!"

Kang Shun yelled at He Shan angrily, and then quickly whispered a few words into Li Changxiao's ear. Finally, he knelt on his knees, lying on the ground and admonished: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Although Li Changxiao acted recklessly, fortunately he was still clear-headed. After Kangshun's persuasion, he quickly understood the pros and cons and knew that He Shan and others were eager for him to lose his mind and do something extraordinary.

After calming down, he suppressed his anger and waved to the guards, and the crisis was temporarily relieved.

"Zhao Fumu, I can let you take him away, but the matter involves my Prince Yu's residence, and I will participate in the entire trial!"

Li Changxiao immediately put forward conditions to Zhao Weiting, who pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement:

"It's natural. On the day of Ms. Xiao's interrogation, the prince can sit in and watch."

With Zhao Weiting's guarantee, Li Changxiao finally chose to let him go. As for the royal banquet, who had the leisure and courage to enjoy it? Except for a few Taoist priests who prepared the banquet, everyone else said goodbye and left. Li Lingyue, He Shan and He Lanmin walked out of the palace gate together. He Lanmin saw that Li Lingyue seemed to have something to say to He Shan, so he gave a few words of concern and left on his own.

After sending He Lan Minzhi away, Li Lingyue asked He Shan directly:

"Uncle, I think there must be many secrets hidden in Mrs. Xiao's body. Although she has been handed over to the government, there is no guarantee that she will not be silenced. You have to go to the prison as soon as possible and find a way to avoid other people. You will interrogate her personally. If you can, Are you here?!"

He Shan patted his chest: "Princess, don't worry. I am also the imperial inspector. He, Zhao Fumu, doesn't dare to stop me. I will go to the prison immediately and interrogate Xiao in advance!"

Li Lingyue thought for a while, lowered her voice and reminded:

"You inform Zhao Fumu and Wen Jishi to send more manpower to ensure Xiao's safety as much as possible. As for whether you can pry out something about Prince Yu's palace from Xiao's mouth, it depends on uncle's methods!"

He Shan confidently assured: "In a humble position, I have been a prison chief. I have many means for interrogating prisoners. Princess, please invite me!"

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for you at Taipingguan at noon tomorrow!"

The reason why Li Lingyue was so concerned about Xiao was precisely because she noticed Li Changxiao's abnormal behavior towards Xiao. From this, she concluded that there must be some ulterior secrets of Li Changxiao hidden in this princess. As long as she caught Li Changxiao's handle, Then she can easily control Prince Yu's Mansion, and she will never be able to make waves again.

After saying goodbye to He Shan, Li Lingyue came to the horse-tethering post outside the palace, but was surprised to find a Taoist priest sitting on the carriage.

Li Lingyue wiped her eyes, thinking she was dazzled!
If she remembered correctly, when she came here, she was driving a carriage to the banquet alone, but why was there a Taoist priest driving the carriage at this time.

Li Lingyue approached quickly, and the Taoist priest on the carriage immediately noticed her, turned around, and looked at her with a smile.

"Ma Liu!!!" Li Lingyue exclaimed!

"No big one, no small one, let's call him Master Six!" Ma Liu corrected dissatisfiedly.

Li Lingyue ignored his words, "Liu! Why did you come here? You are still wearing my Taoist robes from Taiping Temple. Can you come out to meet people during the day?"

Ma Liu's smile faded and he said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? We are not monsters. Why can't we walk during the day? Don't just stand there like that. Hurry up and get in the car!"

"Oh!" Li Lingyue responded. She glanced around and caught a glimpse of a pear seller squatting under the street archway. No need to think about it, it must be A Niu. From this look, she must have been alarmed by her behavior of going to the banquet alone. The four masters should have come here specifically to protect themselves.

Li Lingyue's heart warmed, she jumped on the carriage, patted Ma Liu on the shoulder, then lifted the curtain and got in.

"Drive!!" Ma Liuyi waved his whip and drove the carriage away from Prince Yu's Mansion and headed towards Tianping Temple.

As soon as Li Lingyue entered the carriage, she saw Liu Yaoji, dressed as a maid from Prince Yu's palace, sitting lazily on the main seat, holding a small bronze mirror in her hand and looking into the mirror coquettishly.

"Why are you here too?!" Li Lingyue asked in surprise.

Liu Yaoji glanced at Li Lingyue, then she was arranging her hair beside her ears in front of the mirror, and said coquettishly:
"If the slave family doesn't come, how can we watch the show!"

"Watching a show!!" Li Lingyue was a little annoyed. A Hongmen banquet aimed at her was actually described by Liu Yaoji as "watching a show" in an understatement.

It's really unbearable for my uncle, but not for my aunt!
