Lu Changan rubbed his forehead and carefully analyzed the disadvantages of his participation in politics with Qin Shengrui. Now the court is in internal and external troubles. Can his internal troubles be solved by his ability or external troubles?

If nothing can be solved, it is better not to participate in politics, and you will not show your clumsiness. When Yan Mu's crime is certain, he is the fourth prince, and the position of crown prince is his. Since he can enjoy his success, why bother to be thankless?

Qin Shengrui hummed, "Okay, I won't join the court to participate in politics. I will listen to you in this matter, but there is one more thing, you have to listen to mine."

Lu Changan breathed a little, "What's the matter?"

Qin Shengrui leaned closer and said, "Take this opportunity to kill Lao Qi."

"Your Highness, I just said..."

"Kill him and you will never suffer any future troubles!"

The next day, Liu Yunxiang and Zhang Qi were calculating the losses after the store was blocked. Fortunately, these shops in Shengjing were closed, and shops from other places were still open normally.

"The guys were divided into several shifts and patrolled outside the shop day and night, but fortunately, they didn't find any stealing." Zhang Qi said.

At this time, there is no peace inside and outside Shengjing. I am afraid that there will be thieves taking the opportunity to steal the inventory in the store. However, the government does not care and they will only suffer a loss.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Our shop will be unblocked soon. Tell the guys not to panic. Everyone should take care of each other in special times."

"yes."

Zhang Qi wrote a number at the bottom of the account book in front of him, and then showed it to Liu Yunxiang, "Because the shop was sealed, we had several batches of freight that could not be shipped out, so we could not deliver the goods on time. This was the loss of silver and the other party was not included in the compensation."

Liu Yunxiang looked at the last number and frowned, "Tell us clearly to the other party and try to obtain their understanding. The amount of compensation should be based on the contract. We Lingyun is based on integrity and must not lose our integrity."

"I see."

At this time, the housekeeper came over and said that an official from Jingzhao Mansion came to pass the message, and Feng wanted to see her.

When he arrived at the Jingzhao Prefecture Prison, the prefect Li Chong was leading Xue Hefeng out. Li Chong looked sad, but Xue Hefeng smiled and his steps were light, unlike the suspect who had just been interrogated.

When they saw Liu Yunxiang, the two of them came forward to salute together.

Liu Yunxiang raised his hand and then looked at Xue Hefeng: "I heard that Feng accused Lord Xue of the real murderer who killed Xiaowu?"

Xue Hefeng chuckled, "This is not a nonsense. The fifth girl is smart and cute. I can't even love her. How could I kill her? Feng's confession was turned over and bites her randomly, but she was just struggling to death."

"Did Lord Xue see Feng kill the fifth girl with his own eyes that day?" Liu Yunxiang asked.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."

"Feng said she didn't kill the fifth girl, so who on earth is telling lies?"

Xue Hefeng sneered, "Of course it's Feng."

Liu Yunxiang looked at Li Chong, "The couple pointed at each other. If Feng's confession cannot be used as evidence, then the confession of Mr. Xue, who is also suspected, cannot be used as evidence, right?"

Li Chong said silently for a moment, "This is the reason."

"Why was Mrs. Feng detained in jail, but Lord Xue was released?"

"this……"

Xue Hefeng said, "The princess may not know that as a court official, he cannot be easily convicted unless there is conclusive evidence, and he cannot be detained."

After saying that, Xue Hefeng smiled and walked out of the prison.

"Minister Li, you let him go like this?" Liu Yunxiang asked with a frown.

Li Chong said helplessly: "The same sentence, Feng's confession cannot be used as evidence. There must be other witnesses and evidence to convict Xue Hefeng. But Feng's situation is different. On that day, the official saw that she was holding a knife in her hand, and she pleaded guilty, and even closed the case. So if Xue Hefeng's guilt cannot be convicted, Feng would still be the murderer and would have to be executed."

When she came to Feng's cell, Feng saw her and hurriedly ran over from the darkness. Unlike the lifelessness she used to tie her hair up and looked at Liu Yunxiang with bright eyes.

"Xue Hefeng was let go." Liu Yunxiang sighed slightly.

Feng's eyes darkened, but soon he put away the loss and looked around, "Princess, can I say something to you alone?"

Liu Yunxiang turned around and saw a prison guard next to her, so she waved her hand and asked them to wait outside.

After the prison was about to leave, Feng took another step forward, grabbed the railing with both hands, and whispered: "Yesterday, the Minister of the Li family interrogated me. I told him everything that happened in the mountains that day, but he said that my confession could not be used as evidence. Let me think about the fact that there were other people who saw Xue Hefeng killing people. I thought about it carefully and found that one person saw it."

Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows, "Is there a fourth person present?"

Feng shook his head, "It's the back mountain of Fahua Temple. There is a small road up the mountain. The old man was over 60 years old and was carrying a bamboo basket. He should have passed by. I saw him in panic, and he was also frightened and ran away in panic."

"Then why don't you tell Yin Li?"

"No, I can't trust them. Xue Hefeng has great methods. This Jingzhao Mansion may already have the eyeliner he has installed, so I can't take risks."

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, she subconsciously looked away and saw a prison guard looking here. Seeing her looking over, she hurriedly hid back.

"Princess, please help me." Feng asked.

Liu Yunxiang exhaled, "Do you want me to help you find this old man and ask him to identify Xue Hefeng?"

Feng nodded quickly and took out a piece of paper from his arms, "During the interrogation yesterday, Prince Li asked me to write down the past carefully. I took advantage of their inattention to draw the old man's appearance on the paper and secretly stuffed it into his arms."

Liu Yunxiang took the paper and was afraid that someone would find it, so she hurriedly stuffed it into her sleeve bag.

"I know I've caused trouble for you, Princess, but you are the only one I can ask for now. Please help me, I have to go back to Konger and I have to protect him."

"I'm not helping you, I'm for Xiaowu."

After leaving Jingzhao Mansion, Liu Yunxiang took out the portrait and took a look. Without further ado, she took Zijin out of the city to Fahua Temple.

"Girl, Fahua Temple is full of incense and people come and go. It's probably difficult to find just this painting." Zi Jin said.

"That's what you have to look for."

"Why don't we bring more people when we go home?"

Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Don't leak the news. If Xue Hefeng knows, it will be dangerous for us to get one step earlier than us. Let's look for it secretly first, and then act according to the opportunity."

On the first day, the master and servant asked a lot of people, but no one knew the old man, and finally returned empty-handed.

The next morning, they went to Fahua Temple again, but outside the mountain gate, they met Qu Moran, and Li Zhu was still following her.

"Hey, Yunxiang, what a coincidence, you came to Fahua Temple to burn incense?"
