Chapter 754: Don’t frame Yan Mu

The sudden fire in Jiang Ji's study seemed to indicate something.

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to check the situation. Later, the housekeeper sent someone to the Yamen to come back and said that Yang Xun's case would be tried by the Sanfa Division today, but a new situation has arisen. The trial is still ongoing, and he doesn't know when it will end.

"We were trying Yang Xun's case, and then Jiang Ji caught fire."

The owner of Jiangji Study Studio has a close relationship with Yang Xun. This seems to be no coincidence.

In the middle of the night, Zi Jin came back with his face covered in smoke.

"The fire in Jiang Ji's study was quite big, but everyone inside ran out and there were no casualties."

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to wash her face first, and when she came back after washing, he asked again: "Did you go into the fire to save people?"

"Well, the owner's six-year-old son didn't run out. The young man went in to save people. I saw that he never came out, so I went in to take a look. Fortunately, when I went in, I found that he was pinned down by a beam, and the roof was about to collapse. I

I saved him and the child from the fire. He usually ignored me, but now he thanked me." Zijin said and laughed.

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "Are you hurt?"

"No."

"The fire must have been very strong at that time. How could you rush in to rescue people? What if you were trapped too?" Liu Yunxiang's tone couldn't help but become more serious.

Zijin stuck out his tongue and said, "That young man is actually a good person. I have seen him helping others a lot in the past few days. And he has been going in and out of fires to save people. The fire was already very strong at that time, and the child's mother was so anxious to go in.

He stopped the woman and ran in."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "He is a good man, but he is not very unreasonable. Otherwise, why would he always throw dirt on our door?"

"He said that our Highness is... blind."

"Why?"

"I can't tell that his family is a good person."

Liu Yunxiangmo, it is indeed difficult to tell whether his family is a good person, but he is definitely not a serious person.

Liu Yunxiang asked Zijin to rest first, and she continued to wait for Yan Mu. But after waiting until dawn, he still hadn't come back.

"Madam, can I send someone to ask again?" the housekeeper said while yawning.

Liu Yunxiang thought for a while and said, "You can go and rest first. I'll go to the Yamen myself."

After breakfast, she took Zijin to the Xingbu Yamen. When the guard saw her, he did not let her in as before, but waited for a while until Dahei came out.

"Princess, why are you here?" Dahei said with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looking very unhappy.

"Where is Your Highness?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

"Your Highness, he..."

Seeing Dahei hesitate to speak, Liu Yunxiang immediately asked: "What happened to Your Highness?"

Dahei scratched his head and said rather irritably: "Yesterday, the three-law division joint trial, presided over by His Highness, tried the case of Yanzhou Futai Yang Xun. The case was about to be concluded, but... But then Yang Xun suddenly said that he had an accomplice

.Everyone was excited, but he pointed at His Highness and said that Your Highness was his accomplice, and he handed over all the embezzled one million taels of silver to His Highness."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "How could he slander others? Is there any evidence?"

"Anyway, he just killed His Highness with one blow, and he also took advantage of the opportunity of the three judges' interrogation. Although His Highness denied it, he couldn't tell clearly for a while, and as a result, he was put in jail after the interrogation."

Liu Yunxiang: "..."

No wonder he didn't go home last night. It turned out that he was in jail.

But Yang Xun is also curious. Does he have any grudge against Yan Mu? Why did he bite him? And what is the connection between Jiang Ji's fire last night?

"Can I go in and see Yang Xun?"

"This..." Dahei was a little embarrassed, but after a moment's hesitation, he agreed, "But the princess's status is too special, and I will have to force you to pretend to be the cook who delivers the food later. It doesn't matter that we are our own people, but still

You have to show off and don’t let the inspectors from Dali Temple get hold of you.”

"good."

When it was almost noon, Liu Yunxiang changed his clothes, took a bucket of dry food, and followed the prison officer in. This is the death row, and Yan Mu is not here.

She came to Yang Xun's prison door and saw him sitting against the west wall, humming a tune happily.

Liu Yunxiang didn't understand the Yan dialect very well. He only heard a sentence about a bachelor marrying a wife. It should be a folk tune. Literary people usually find it vulgar, but he didn't. He sang it with flavor.

The prison guard knocked on the door and shouted inside: "Okay, stop singing, just think this is a wine shop. Look who's here, why don't you come over and salute."

Yang Xun was still singing, glanced away casually, and then continued singing against the wall.

The prison officer was so angry that he wanted to curse. Liu Yunxiang waved his hand at him, "You go down first, and I will have a few words with Mr. Yang."

Prison almost nodded, "My subordinate is outside. You can call me at any time."

"good."

After the prison officer left, Liu Yunxiang looked at Yang Xun indifferently. He hummed a song, and she listened. She was competing to see who was more patient. After singing for a long time, his throat was probably dry, so Yang Xun stopped.

Down.

He stood up while holding on to the wall and walked toward the door. When he came to it, he squatted down and took a piece of dry food from the basket. He walked back and forth and asked, "Where's the soup?"

Liu Yunxiang twitched the corner of his mouth, "Does His Majesty Seventh Prince have a grudge against you?"

"Where's the soup?" He raised his voice.

Liu Yunxiang remained calm, "Why did you frame His Highness the Seventh Prince?"

Yang Xun narrowed his eyes, then sneered, sat down and ate the steamed bun, "You think if I choke to death on this steamed bun, does that count as your seventh princess murdering someone to silence me?"

Liu Yunxiang tilted his head and pointed at the wooden barrel next to him, "There are so many steamed buns here that if you can't choke to death, just eat a few more."

Yang Xun snorted and was about to say something when he was really choked. He stretched his neck, widened his eyes, and swallowed hard several times before swallowing. From the beginning to the end, Liu Yunxiang just stood there,

There was even a smile on his lips.

Yang Xun swallowed the steamed bun, but his throat was already extremely dry.

"You, you abuse prisoners!"

Liu Yunxiang didn't care at all about the charges he gave, and continued: "Jiang Ji's fire last night must be related to your temporary change of mouth to accuse Yan Mu. Let me guess, someone must have threatened you with the Jiang family."

She didn't ask him, she just told her guess, it didn't matter whether he recognized it or not.

Yang Xun lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, but he didn't speak any more.

"Last night, the young man almost died in the fire, but my maid saved him." After Liu Yunxiang said this, he sneered, "We saved your people, but you came back to bite our Highness, what a loss to you.

Feeling guilty?"

Hearing this, Yang Xun was silent for a while, and then said with a smile: "The princess saw it clearly, so she should also know that I have no choice but to bite whoever they ask me to bite?"

"who are they?"

"It doesn't matter who they are." Yang Xun looked at Liu Yunxiang, "The only way to prove His Majesty's innocence is to find the one million taels."

"Where?"
