Chapter 80 Protect Yourself
As soon as Xiao Jingyan said this, the Minister of Revenue became quiet instantly.
But looking at his expression, he obviously dissatisfied.
In his perception, his daughter was killed by the fifth prince, and the dagger on the scene was the best evidence.
But the prince said that it was not the fifth prince, so he thought this was covering up!
But the person in front of him is the Prince of Daliang after all. No matter what, the other party’s identity is here, the future crown prince...
If he doesn't restrain himself now, he will definitely die at the hands of this man in the future.
"Although the father asked Gu to participate in the investigation of this case, Gu was not responsible. Even if Lord Shangshu could not trust Gu, he should still believe Lord Song from Dali Temple."
"At this time, Princess Yun'an has been detained by Dali Temple. If Lord Shangshu doesn't believe it, you can go there yourself. The file is already being sorted out and asked Lord Song to show it to Lord Shangshu at a glance."
Xiao Jingyan stood with his hands behind his back, glanced at the Minister of Revenue on his side, and his voice was faint: "Of course, Lord Shangshu can continue to suspicion. However, since he suspected that it was King Qin, I believe that Lord Shangshu must have sufficient evidence to prove that King Qin is the murderer."
"If you show evidence, as long as you can determine that it was done by the King of Qin, I will definitely help you."
Minister of the Ministry of Revenue: "..."
Others agreed when they heard the sound, "Yes, Lord Lin, if you suspect King Qin, you must have evidence."
"That's right, there is no evidence to talk to yourself here. Isn't this accusation? "
"I also think it's strange at this time. There is no need for the King of Qin to take action at all."
"And the prince has been living in Dali Temple these days, just for your daughter's case. Look, the prince has lost weight. Lord Shangshu cannot repay his kindness to his grudges."
"The prince was upright since he was a child, so how could he be suspected of covering up? Lord Shangshu was confused!"
The Minister of Revenue's face turned blue and he bowed to Xiao Jingyan: "It's my husband's heartache that he lost his daughter, and he was confused for a moment. Don't be angry with me."
Xiao Jingyan smiled and said, "I can understand it. I will send Shangshu to Dali Temple."
"Thank you, Prince."
——
Soon, the news of Princess Yun'an buying a murder spread in the palace.
Lin Wancheng also received the news. After hearing this, her whole mood could only be described as "shock".
She took a breath and couldn't figure it out: "Why?"
She looked at Chun'er blankly, Chun'er stammered and thought for a while, and replied: "Did the emperor drive her out of the palace? She holds a grudge?"
"After all, Miss Lin is the prospective princess, and then she framed the fifth prince. No matter what, there must be someone talking about the royal family behind the scenes."
There is no airtight wall in this world.
This kind of rumor can kill people.
"And, didn't she hate the fifth prince before?"
After listening, Lin Wancheng felt it made sense and nodded frequently.
"It's reasonable. But how could she be so risky?"
Chun'er said: "I guess I didn't expect that I would be found to be foolproof."
"Yeah." Lin Wancheng responded, "The prince is smart and never started with the killer. This is thanks to the pair of bracelets."
"Princess, you are wrong. This is thanks to our shop!"
Lin Wancheng raised his eyebrows and snapped his fingers, "That's right! This time my antique shop is definitely the key of the key. I'll give the shopkeeper more money another day."
Chun'er laughed aside.
"What are you talking about? You're so happy." When Xiao Jingyan came in, he saw the master and servant laughing like a flower.
Hearing the sound, Lin Wancheng looked at him, "Why are you here so soon?"
She knew that Xiao Jingyan had returned to the palace, but she heard that she was on the side of the emperor, so she thought he would come to find her later.
Chun'er saluted Xiao Jingyan, and then consciously retreated.
Lin Wancheng hugged the rabbit on the stone table in his arms and signaled Xiao Jingyan to come and sit down.
Xiao Jingyan stepped forward, sat down next to her, poured a cup of tea on his own, glanced at the rabbit in her arms casually, and made a meal of pouring tea:
"Is this the one I gave you?"
"Yes." Lin Wancheng turned his back so that he could see the rabbit's face clearly, and then told him with a proud look: "I gave it a nice name, called Pangpang. How about it?!"
"..." Xiao Jingyan nodded, "The rabbit is as its name."
He remembered that when he sent it, the rabbit was the size of a palm.
How long has it been? Why did Lin Wancheng be hugged?
This name "Pangpang" is indeed not called in vain. It is too vivid.
Lin Wancheng smiled, touched his fat ears, and asked the serious matter, "Can the Fifth Prince be released?"
"Well. I'm already on my way back to the palace."
Lin Wancheng nodded, afraid that he would misunderstand again, so he explained: "I asked this because I wanted to be mentally prepared. After he returned to the palace, he guessed that he or his adoptive father would have to come to me to ask about the emperor."
Speaking of this, Lin Wancheng was a little nervous and leaned in front of him and whispered to him.
"The emperor's health is getting worse day by day, you must be more careful."
In fact, at this critical moment, if Xiao Jingyan is more cruel, he can trap the fifth prince in Dali Temple.
Although it cannot stop the fifth prince from rebelling, it can definitely delay time.
But Xiao Jingyan did not do this.
However, the fifth prince has been affected by this incident and the situation is over.
I guess it's like my previous life, I can't cause any storm.
"Don't worry." Xiao Jingyan raised his hand and touched her head, "Wei Xiang, you can adapt to the situation. As long as you realize that the situation is wrong, you don't need to worry about me, just sell me to save yourself. Do you understand?"
Lin Wancheng: “…”
She blinked, as if she didn't understand what he said.
"I mean, whether it is Wei Xiang or Xiao Jing'an, these two are not fuel-efficient lights. You can't scare them with just one word."
"One of them is an old fry, and most people can't fight, and the other is careful and sensitive since childhood. When you face them, once you find out that you have a connection between you and me, you will turn your back."
"Sell me and save my own way of retreat."
"This is the only thing you have to do, don't think about the rest."
"But if I sell you, won't you be in danger?" Lin Wancheng sat upright, obviously disagreed, "We are now in a cooperative relationship, and we are people on the same boat."
Xiao Jingyan took a deep breath and said:
"I'm worried that they will attack you in the end."
"So you listen to me, and once they become suspicious, you say you pretend to cooperate with me and have many important clues."
Xiao Jingyan was worried and reminded again: "You don't need to worry about me here, I'm sure. You just need to protect yourself in front of them."
