Holding the teacup, Princess Xuan was reluctant to drink.

Until she sighed sadly, put down the teacup again, quietly grasped the Buddhist beads on her wrist, and said carefully: "I know that those who have collaborated with the enemy in the past will have their entire clan exterminated."

"But there are always some people in the palace whose crimes do not deserve death."

"For example, there is a lady named Lan in the mansion who was forced to enter the mansion. She is now six months pregnant. If Her Royal Highness the Princess is willing to have mercy on me, I am willing to take the punishment for Lady Lan."

Hearing this, A Bao felt that the gaze behind him was extremely heavy.

Turning back, she saw Yan Haixi, who had quietly walked in at some point, leaning against the door with a sword in hand, his dark eyes seemed to be waiting for her answer.

After a moment of silence, A Bao comforted her, "Don't worry, Princess."

Of course she knew that the charges varied in severity.

Just as Princess Xuan had said, there was Madam Lan who was forced into the palace, and there were also one or two people in the distant branches of the Xuan family whose hands were not stained with blood.

Therefore, Emperor Feng Ran's uncle conducted a thorough investigation.

In the end, the list of prisoners was arranged according to the severity of their crimes.

After hesitating for a while, he saw that Princess Xuan, who was separated from him by a case, was extremely worried.

A Bao handed over the list at hand, "The villagers of Mengjia Village have been taking poison all year round. If they want to completely eliminate the poison in their bodies, it will take at least five years, and at most ten years. Therefore, I will leave them on Xingluo Island to recuperate."

"But the medicinal materials that can cure the poison of the Meng villagers are very valuable."

"Therefore, I have ordered that the Xuan family members with less serious crimes be sent to Xingluo Island."

"The money earned from raising mulberry trees and weaving cloth is all used to buy medicine."

After listening silently, Princess Xuan looked at Abao with tears in her eyes.

It's not a blanket statement, and that's fine.

When Her Royal Highness the Princess ascends the throne in the future, it will be a blessing for the people of Daqi.

Thinking of this, Princess Xuan stood up solemnly, bowed to express her gratitude, and drank the hot tea in her hand.

"For the rest of my life, I will pray for Her Royal Highness the Princess day and night."

A Bao hurriedly helped Princess Xuan up. Suddenly, Xie Wuai ran in.

Seeing this, Princess Xuan said goodbye and left.

Then, Po looked curiously at Brother Xie who was very excited.

"What happened?"

"Royal sister! New news came from the imperial capital!"

King Xuan was just a pawn. The real culprit was the Pei family, who were good at taking advantage of people's greed and playing with everything in their hands.

A Bao had already written down what he saw and heard on Mengjia Island.

It was even sent to the Taiji Hall at an expedited rate of eight hundred miles.

However, the old emperor was furious, but was advised by the Ministry of Justice to act according to the iron law.

But the most crucial evidence to incriminate the Pei family was missing.

"Pei Nanshan's wife, the eldest wife of the Pei family." Xie Wuai said with disdain: "Kneeling in front of the gate of the imperial capital, holding up the blood letter to cry out for justice."

Hearing this, A Bao suddenly felt ominous and asked, "What did she say?"

"Tell me, Pei Guichen was murdered." Xie Wuai was annoyed.

Ah Bao thought he had heard wrongly and repeated, "Killed?"

Xie Wuai glanced at Yan Haixi who was sitting opposite the tea table with a meaningful look, "Madam Pei lied. She said that after you, my sister, were kidnapped by the pirate leader and fell into the sea, Pei Guichen firmly believed that you were still alive, so he searched everywhere for you, but was killed by the Shark and Whale Army."

"Madam Pei cried and said Pei Guichen died unjustly, and begged Your Majesty to seek justice!"

Upon hearing this, Abao taunted, "Taiji Temple, do you believe it?"

Xie Wuai also sneered, "How is it possible?! Such a lame lie, no one would believe it. Who would have thought that Madam Pei would commit suicide at the city gate after saying that."

“Everyone who was traveling around at the time saw it.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the tea room in the cabin became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The real culprits of Madam Pei's death, Pei Nanshan and his son Pei Guichen, must have been behind the scenes fanning the flames. By then, the public will surely be in an uproar again.

On the contrary, it has become increasingly difficult.

There was silence for a while, and no one spoke.

Xie Wuai, who was straightforward, asked, "Should we tell Pei Jili about this?"

Before the wedding ceremony, one of the tips his sister gave him was to secretly detain Pei Jili alone in Jincheng and then interrogate him.

However, Pei Jili refused to speak.

That Madam Pei was Pei Jili's biological mother. It would be great if we could make a big deal out of her death and pry the truth out of Pei Jili's mouth as a witness.

A Bao also understood what her brother Xie meant, and after much hesitation, she made a decision.

"I'll tell him myself when we pass Jiangnan."

Unexpectedly, before she could finish her words, her hand was stopped by the black-robed emperor's uncle.

While the room was quiet, she shook the bitter medicine that she was about to pour out quietly.

"Xuanyuan, Abao." Xuanyuan Fengran said in a deep voice.

However, Abao was rebellious, "I am the crown prince of the Eastern Palace! I won't drink!"

At the end, Abao added arrogantly:

"Uncle Feng Ran! What can you do to me?!"

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Fengran was silent for a moment, and was actually amused. He said coldly: "Please both of you step aside. I have something to discuss with our princess alone."

Xie Wuai sensed danger and ran away immediately.

Seeing A Bao acting like a spoiled brat to Xuanyuan Fengran again, Yan Haixi, who had already stepped out of the tea room, looked back silently with a complicated expression.

The pirate leader quietly clenched the hilt of his sword.

When the cabin on the fifth floor became quiet, the tea was boiling on the table.

A Bao and Xuanyuan Fengran, one sitting and one standing, looked at each other.

"You drink it yourself?" Xuanyuan Fengran said coldly: "Or should I feed you?"

A Bao was not afraid at all: "How do I feed him? Like this?" After she finished speaking, she grabbed Xuanyuan Fengran's black robe, pulled him over, and pecked him lightly.

Xuanyuan Fengran's breathing suddenly tightened: "..."

At the same time, go back up the stairs to the fourth floor.

"King Feng Ran is so scary. Will he bully my sister?"

Xie Wuai was very worried and chased Yan Hai to ask.

Yan Haixi lowered his eyes with a complicated expression and replied, "No."

Just like back then, in the back mountain of West Prison.

As long as Abao wants, Xuanyuan Fengran can't do anything to her.
