At the zenith of the moon, Xu Yin drank a cup of tea in Xue Ru's yard, and the menstruation came down.
"Third Miss."
"Did you recruit?"
Ji Jing nodded and said, "If you scare me, I'll do it."
Xu Yin sneered softly: "I thought he was so courageous to dare to do such a thing under my father's nose, but it turns out he is not easily intimidated."
Ji Jing sighed: "This is darkness under the lamp! We all thought we had figured him out, but who knew he would really dare to do such a thing. This is also a lesson. Don't look down on others in the future."
"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts. Fang Yi was cultivated by his father. He never expected that he would poison him."
After saying these two sentences, the topic turned back and Ji Jing reported the results of the interrogation to her.
"In the past two years, in order to ascend to power, Fang Yi leaked secrets during the counter-insurgency war and created opportunities for himself to make meritorious deeds. The Prince of Nan'an County happened to discover this and had evidence of his collaboration with the enemy."
Xu Yin finally understood: "I see. This is no small matter. As long as he is discovered, his father will definitely punish him severely, and his sister will not be able to marry him, so he can only cooperate with the other party and take risks."
Ji Jing nodded in agreement: "Collaborating with the enemy should be punished according to law. In other cases, you may be given a lighter sentence. This matter is absolutely unforgivable."
Xu Yin nodded and continued to ask: "What else? Who is Xue Ru and who is her master?"
Ji Jing smiled bitterly: "He doesn't know."
Xu Yin looked surprised: "Don't know at all? Then why did he help Xue Ru?"
Ji Jing said: "Last year, the Yue family of the Prince of Nan'an committed a crime and was fished out."
"Did the master behind Xue Ru do it?"
Ji Jing said: "The prince of Nan'an County is far away in his fiefdom and has no idea about the situation in the capital. He only received the title as an adult and has a shallow foundation. So the other party showed his strength and cooperated happily."
Xu Yin sneered: "You're not willing to give in, are you? He is the direct grandson of the late emperor, but now he can only rely on others. He wants to use the other party's power to get Nanyuan so that he can plot more."
Therefore, Fang Yi married Gao Silan in his previous life, which was basically the result of his early planning.
However, His Highness the County Prince is still a bit of a fool. He has never fought against Fang Yi and lost his daughter in vain.
"Yes." After a pause, Ji Jing continued, "There are no clues about the identity of that person. According to the confession of the Prince of Nan'an County, the other party promised him to complete the matter and obtain the title of prince for him. This
There are not many people in the world who dare to make this promise."
Xu Yin had experienced the previous life and naturally knew that the other party had not fulfilled his promise, so he said: "Maybe he was just coaxing him."
"It is indeed possible, but Prince Nan'an has no doubts about that man's energy, so I thought there should be many clues to verify this conjecture."
Xu Yin nodded and thought along this line of thought: "The one who can accomplish this must be an important minister in the court."
"Yes." Ji Jing agreed, "Just those few..."
The two looked at each other and saw solemnity in each other's eyes.
If those people are really targeting Nanyuan, it's bad news.
After a long silence, Xu Yin stood up and said, "There is no need to be afraid when soldiers come to block you or water comes to cover you up. Just like this time, didn't we smash their conspiracy? When father wakes up, we will be more confident."
"Yes." Ji Jing looked at her, filled with joy.
The third young lady is indeed a talented person. This matter was handled so beautifully. Even if Fang Yi had not betrayed him, he would not have been able to do this.
If adults wake up, they will definitely have the same sigh, right? If a woman is like this, there is no need to hand over the inheritance she has built with her own hands into the hands of others?
Prince Nan'an will be placed in Mingde Tower for the time being. He is a prince after all, so it is not appropriate to take him back, and it would be uncomfortable to let him go back home, so he is simply imprisoned in Mingde Tower first.
After taking care of these things, Xu Yin returned home.
It was already dark, the Governor's Mansion was in deep sleep, and everything was quiet.
After entering the backyard, Xu Yin let the guards go and returned to Qushui Pavilion alone.
The moonlight cast a clear light, illuminating the way back, and the breeze gently blew over her face, bringing a refreshing coolness.
Xu Yin couldn't help but stop and looked up at the bamboo forest under the moon.
The bamboo shadows dance gently under the moonlight, which is really a beautiful sight.
She smiled and picked an apricot on the roadside, as if she wanted to taste it.
However, after playing with it twice, she suddenly threw it hard.
"Bang!" Xingzi hit something, and someone grunted, falling straight down from above and landing in front of her.
The peeping little thief got up and wiped the burnt apricot meat, while muttering and complaining: "Miss Xu San, are you too cruel? After all, I am also a guest, and your head was smashed out of my head.
!”
Xu Yin took a step back and glanced at him coldly: "Young Master Yan still knows that you are a guest? Hiding here in the middle of the night and watching, what do you want to do?"
Yan Er looked innocent: "I'm going out for a walk!"
"Take a walk? The guest house is so far away from here, and there are guards guarding it outside. How can we take a walk here? Are you stupid or do you think I am stupid?"
Yan Er chuckled and said: "I didn't go this far originally, but why did Miss Xu San come back in the middle of the night? You are a boudoir lady who was out hunting bandits last night, and you came back in the middle of the night today. It's really strange. I
This person was very curious and couldn’t help but come and take a look.”
Being able to talk about peeping so confidently is one of his abilities.
Xu Yin said: "Now that Second Young Master Yan has seen it, what do you think?"
Yan Er touched his chin and looked over her body quickly: "My impression is that Miss Xu San is indeed not a mortal."
"Oh? What is that?"
"Heavenly fairy!" Yan Er answered quickly, "You walked over there just now, I thought the fairy in the moon had descended to earth!"
Xu Yin stared at him for a while and said, "Second Young Master Yan, do you think I would listen to such nonsense?"
"How can this be called nonsense?" Yan Er said sincerely, "Miss Xu San is a fairy. Even if you arrest me, I will still say this."
Does this mean that even if you catch him and interrogate him, nothing will come out?
Xu Yin laughed and asked him: "Okay, now the immortal has a question to ask you, will you answer it?"
"Of course!" Yan Er raised his hand, "Tell me everything you know."
Xu Yin nodded and asked: "Your surname is Yan, and you are from Guanzhong. What is your relationship with Duke Zhao?"
Yan Er smiled and said: "There are many people named Yan in Guanzhong, but not everyone is related to Duke Zhao."
"So your answer is it doesn't matter?"
Yan Er said: "It's considered an ancestor."
Oh, fellow sect!
Xu Yin nodded, suddenly turned around and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
After the words fell, the shadow hidden in the dark moved, and the two guards quickly came to the front: "Third Miss."
Xu Yin stretched out his hand and pointed: "This person has evil intentions and is spying on me secretly. Catch him!"
"yes!"
Yan Er was shocked: "I have already answered, why are you still arresting people?"
Xu Yin put his hands on his sleeves and said lazily: "You answered, but did I say I don't care?"
