"Bang!"

Long Yuanxiu, who was extremely angry, directly slammed the evidence in his hand on the table.

"I really spared no effort to do so much behind the back of this king! If you continue to be poor, you must find out all the sources of the matter to this king as soon as possible! ”

"Yes!" The secret guards who received the order left the study without stopping for the slightest time to continue investigating the matter.

Although the dark guards only obeyed Long Yuanxiu's orders, it was the first time that the dark guards had seen Long Yuanxiu who looked so angry.

I also understood more in my heart, what kind of position this Zhuang Mingyue was in Long Yuanxiu. As for the relationship between the household department and the criminal department, if we don't deal with it as soon as possible, I'm afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future.

With the departure of the dark guard, the candle flame blown by the residual wind gradually stabilized again, filling the empty study without any sound.

Long Yuanxiu looked at the so-called "evidence", all of which pointed to Zhuang Mingyue's body, and even all the unrealistic plantings were spared no effort to impose on her.

Long Yuanxiu only felt that the anger was constantly surging up from the bottom of his heart, he didn't expect that under his protection of Zhuang Mingyue, he was actually directly exploited by someone because of the time he was out of Beijing.

not only directly convicted Zhaoyi, but even directly put pressure on Zhuang Mingyue for other crimes through Zhaoyi's crimes, making her a scapegoat.

"This king will not let you succeed!" Long Yuanxiu, who had a calm face, looked at Zhuang Mingyue's name under the candlelight, slowly stretched out his hand, and caressed it silently.

After a moment, he whispered as if promised, "I will protect you from being hurt in the slightest, until the matter is over...... Mingyue, wait for me ......"

The cold wind in the middle of the night has always been the coldest, and the half-hidden windows "creak".

The bright moon above the sky is also hidden in the clouds of the middle sky, looming, and there is not too much moonlight projected down.

In the middle of the night, it passed slowly in the sleepless investigation.

After everything was investigated, Long Yuanxiu took all the evidence and went to the palace to meet him, but the first person he saw was still the princess who started it.

Long Yuanxiu, who was expressionless, watched the princess come forward and saluted him, "Second Highness is healthy." ”

After the events of that day, Long Yuanxiu didn't plan to have half a point of intersection with her, but this matter had a huge relationship with her, "Niangniang is polite." ”

After the exchange of salutes, Long Yuanxiu no longer looked at the princess, but just took care of himself, standing in place with an indifferent expression.

The neglected princess, as if she had forgotten his threat that day, not only did not avoid it, but deliberately took two steps in his direction again, "Your Majesty has just come down to the early court, if the Second Highness has anything important, why don't you talk to the palace?" ”

For this temptation of the princess, Long Yuanxiu did not pay attention to it.

Just when the two were silently stalemate, suddenly the emperor's deep voice remembered outside the door, "Don't mess around, how can the harem be involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty." ”

Although the words sounded like blame, the tone in them could be completely heard, and the emperor was just talking, and there was no sense of blame at all.

Hearing this, Long Yuanxiu turned around, bowed down and saluted, "Erchen participates in the emperor." ”

The princess, who also heard the voice, also laughed coquettishly, stepped forward in a few steps, and stretched out her hand to help the emperor cross the threshold.

Then his expression and tone were a little aggrieved, "The concubine also heard that this matter has something to do with the banker's girl, Your Majesty, you also know that my relationship with her is acceptable, so I asked a few more words." Otherwise, in the affairs of the previous dynasty, where would the concubines dare to intervene. ”

The emperor who was coaxed didn't intend to blame her, and looking at her appearance at this moment, he naturally had already forgotten the so-called "reprimand" just now.

Long Yuanxiu, who had watched all this with his own eyes, stood next to him and waited without the slightest warmth in his eyes.

There are also some speculations in my heart, I am afraid that the emperor also knows about this matter, and he still did not stop it under the light circumstances of knowing, that is, he has already expressed his attitude towards this matter.

Seeing that the emperor was sitting on the throne, Long Yuanxiu handed over the evidence that had been sorted out in his hand and the real murderer involved, "Father, this is what the son investigated from Zhuang Mingyue's charges, and this matter was not Zhuang Mingyue's doing." ”

The emperor, who took the evidence, glanced at it briefly, but when he saw the end, his eyes flickered for a moment.

I saw him casually put down the evidence, "How could the emperor suddenly investigate this matter?" ”

Long Yuanxiu saw that the emperor not only did not ask about Zhuang Mingyue's crimes, but also questioned why he wanted to investigate this matter, and he understood in his heart that the place where his gaze stayed just now must be the name of the princess.

Long Yuanxiu, who responded calmly, did not deliberately look at the princess, as if he didn't know that in the evidence, the mastermind accused was the princess.

"Erchen was injured by a thief on this trip, and it happened that it was this Miss Zhuang who saved Erchen's life, and Erchen also knew this Miss Zhuang. Now in the capital, I heard that she had become a big criminal, and I believed that she was not such a femme fatale, so I returned her life-saving grace. ”

Before entering the palace, Long Yuanxiu had already guessed about the emperor's attitude, so he prepared his rhetoric early.

And his remarks, to the ears of the emperor, are indeed reasonable.

But that doesn't mean he will choose to deal with it fairly.

Even if Long Yuanxiu had already stated the truth of the matter on paper, and also mentioned that the princess planned this matter.

At this moment, the emperor seemed to have not seen it at all, "Since the emperor has investigated the truth, and I also believe in your ability, this matter will end here, I will let Liufu go to the criminal department, let them withdraw this wanted warrant, and return her innocence." ”

Long Yuanxiu, who heard this, what else did he not understand?

The emperor directly admitted that Zhuang Mingyue was an innocent person without asking more, and emphasized that he believed in Long Yuanxiu, so he would not ask more questions and would not re-examine.

There is not a single sentence mentioning the princess, the culprit of this matter, saying that the emperor is already hinting at him, telling him to stop here and not continue to investigate.

Long Yuanxiu, who knew that the emperor was planning to protect the princess to the end, his eyelids jumped slightly, and the hand behind his back was tightly clenched into a fist.

But in the end, he still lowered his head and spread out the hand behind him in front of him, "Thank you, father!" ”

Seeing that Long Yuan was intellectual, he didn't hold on to the princess, but waved his hand happily, "Liufu, go to the Criminal Department to give an order and take off the charges of the dealer." ”

"Oh, the slave is going to the criminal department." With that, Liufu moved his fat body and went out.

Long Yuanxiu, who knew that the dust had settled by this point, suppressed the anger in the depths of his heart, and gave his hand again, "The minister there will not disturb his father's rest, and he will retire first." ”

"Let's go down." The emperor, who had no emotion, waved his hand at Long Yuanxiu casually as if he were a subordinate, and sent him away.

Long Yuanxiu, who had withdrawn, couldn't help but clench his hands again when he saw the princess's smiling face the moment he raised his eyes.

Xu was in order to compensate Long Yuanxiu, and Liufu, who went to do something, was very fast, and it didn't take long for the wanted notice about Zhuang Mingyue to disappear completely in the capital.

Zhuang Mingyue, who got the news, finally breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. But soon when she went out again, she found that the pedestrians on the road would still point fingers at her when they saw her face, and even deliberately alienated her.

At this moment, Zhuang Mingyue also understood, although the criminal department ripped off her crime order.

But no announcement was issued to prove her innocence, which means that the stigma on her body still exists in the eyes of passers-by.

But even so, Zhuang Mingyue also believed that she was not afraid of shadows, since she hadn't done those things at all. If she didn't make those mistakes, she would one day be able to make these people change their opinion of her, after all, she was innocent.

However, Zhuang Mingyue, who believed in it like this, didn't know that her thoughts were inevitably simple.

In the eyes of these people, a wanted criminal who was worth a lot of money on the wanted warrant a few days ago was now suddenly withdrawn for some reason.

And it can be so swaggering, appearing in everyone's sight, so it is most likely that some means are used to clear the charge.

Especially about Zhuang Mingyue's crimes, these people had all seen them on the wanted warrant before, and they had all heard some rumors.

As these people talk about the so-called "truth" with red mouths and white teeth, and the truth is mixed with the false, it is as if they have seen it with their own eyes.

It is even more certain in people's hearts that this Zhuang Mingyue is a criminal who has committed a big crime, but now she is using some means to make the government stop arresting her.

The people who were so convinced didn't care about the truth of the matter at all, they only firmly believed in the "facts" they heard, no matter how Zhuang Mingyue argued, it would have no effect.

Because they firmly believe that Zhuang Mingyue is an unscrupulous and cruel culprit.

And the more Zhuang Mingyue explained to them, the more they felt that this was a manifestation of Zhuang Mingyue's weakness, in order to cover up what he had done.
