I became the villain's deceased wife

"Don't worry, Master Xie. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told me to tell Master Xie everything."

Seeing Xie Yunzhe's suspicious face, Lu Ruijun hurried to explain.

Xie Yunzhe let down his guard.

"It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

It seems that he is not giving up and is determined to get him to join the gang.

However, as long as he could help him find the real murderer and take revenge, Xie Yunzhe didn't mind being used by the prince.

After all, my wife said that he is the male protagonist of this world in the book, and it is likely that he will be the one to secure his throne in the end.

"What does Master Lu know?

If this can really help me, I will keep it in mind and be grateful to you and the Crown Prince!"

Lu Ruijun looked around.

He then pulled Xie Yunzhe to an empty alley and whispered:

“I have no evidence either.

If it doesn't help, Mr. Xie, just pretend I never said anything."

There was obvious nervousness on his face, and he kept looking back at the entrance of the alley, as if he was afraid of being caught at any time.

"Mr. Lu, please speak freely.

I now hold the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and I know that solving a case requires both human and physical evidence.

Before the truth is revealed, I dare not act rashly, let alone tell anyone about Master Lu."

Only then did Lu Ruijun calm down.

"Master Xie was born in the capital, so he must know me.

Although I am the legitimate daughter of a marquis, I am neither good at literature nor martial arts. I can’t survive among the talented and beautiful children of aristocratic families like you…”

He said with an embarrassed look on his face.

Xie Yunzhe was waiting to hear the so-called clues, but he didn't expect him to talk about these.

"Mr. Lu, there is no need to be modest. Lord Lu is a man of great talent and military strategy, and he is a man of high moral character.

Your elder sister, Miss Lu, is the future Crown Princess, so she will definitely be able to arrange a good place for Master Lu."

Born into such a family, he doesn't need to work much.

As long as you don't make any serious mistakes, you will be able to live a safe, wealthy and honored life.

How can he be like him...

He has gone through many hardships and has a blood feud.

Not a moment's peace of mind.

"Master Xie, you don't have to comfort me. I know how others evaluate me.

A dandy idiot, good for nothing!"

Lu Ruijun looked sad.

But Xie Yunzhe was eager to know what he knew.

"Mr. Lu, there is no need to belittle yourself. Compared with Fan Shixuan and his ilk, you are not that bad.

and so--

What does this have to do with my father’s wrongful conviction?”

He lost his patience.

I don’t know what this guy is thinking by playing pity on a guy whose family has been destroyed!

Lu Ruijun finally straightened his expression.

I didn't expect Xie Yunzhe to be so direct.

"cough!

You know that I often hang out with Young Master Fan."

It’s not that he is so close to him, but apart from him, Lu Ruijun doesn’t know who else he can play with.

Xie Yunzhe nodded.

He knows too much.

So I feel that what this young master said today doesn’t have to be taken seriously.

But what Lu Ruijun said next was:

"I suspect that the false accusation against Mr. Xie might have been done by Prime Minister Fan."

Xie Yunzhe then took it seriously.

"Do you have any basis for what you said?"

Lu Ruijun nodded.

“During the days when Lord Xie was imprisoned, Fan Shixuan and I often went to Louwailou to drink tea and listen to music.

Some young men from noble families were discussing when Lord Xie would be able to come out.

Only Fan Shixuan sneered disdainfully, saying that Xie Bolan dared to criticize his father for not parenting his children well, and that he was really refusing to accept the toast, so Prime Minister Fan would teach him a lesson.

This time you will definitely die!"

Xie Yunzhe clenched his hands so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

There have long been rumors that my father suffered this misfortune because he offended Prime Minister Fan.

But at that time, it was just hearsay, and Xie Yunzhe thought it was just a rumor.

After all, he is the prime minister of the current dynasty. Would he want to put someone to death just because of such a trivial matter?

He didn't believe it.

I thought it was the instigator who deliberately diverted the blame.

But Lu Ruijun's words forced him to take it seriously.

Could it be.

Is the rumor true?

"Mr. Lu often interacts with Fan Shixuan. Do you know if he has any other business besides the protection of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Think about what happened in Fenglin.

It turned out that Fan Shixuan was determined to kill him. Was it not just because he had stolen his limelight several times when he was young and naive?

Lu Ruijun thought about it.

“Young Master Fan may look arrogant, but he’s actually in the same situation as me at home.

He was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and was looked down upon by Prime Minister Fan and other young masters of the family.

He also felt very uncomfortable.

In order to gain the approval of Prime Minister Fan, he seemed to have secretly acquired many properties. In addition to the capital, he also acquired many local officials and gentry who curry favor with Prime Minister Fan.

And I also gave him some property in his name.”

now it's right!

Xie Yunzhe thought of the changed verdict again.

In fact, in addition to the three courts, there is also the prime minister who holds great power and has the right to review the verdict.

Others dare not raise any objections!

"Thank you, Master Lu, for clearing up my confusion!"

He bowed to Lu Ruijun.

"When I succeed in overturning my father's case, I will come to thank Master Lu and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in person."

If this is really the prince's way of winning him over, he is willing to accept this favor!

……

Xie Yunzhe was going to great lengths to investigate his father's unjust case.

Song Tian had to participate in Princess Jiarou's hunting competition to help her clear up the misunderstanding.

But she was wrong.

Princess Jiarou asked her to go to the royal hunting ground not to calm public opinion.

But I want to humiliate her!

"This is the top scholar who stole the princess's lover!

This looks...

It’s not that great!”

Some noble ladies from aristocratic families gathered together, pointing at Song Tian who had just entered the room and commenting on her.

"That is, she has no pretty face and no figure.

How can she even be one ten-thousandth as good as Princess Jiarou!

I think that Mr. Xie must be blind, he would rather stay with this vulgar and ignorant village woman than marry a precious princess!"

Song Tian rolled her eyes and wanted to slap them in the face.

But she came here to reconcile with Princess Jiarou, and another conflict would be counterproductive.

So I accepted it silently.

"Ms. Song, don't bother with them.

These people are so bored in their large houses that they always want to come out and cause trouble for others.”

Lu Wanying suddenly sat down opposite her, picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Song Tian.

Song Tian smiled shyly:

"Thank you!"

Just when she was wondering what the legendary heroine wanted to see her about, she saw those aristocratic ladies who were feeling suffocated also gathered around her.

"Ms. Lu, this person has a bad character and bad behavior. You must not get involved with her."

Song Tian almost spit out a mouthful of tea.

What did she do?

To be described as such an unforgivable sin.

"you……"

Just as he was about to defend himself, he heard Lu Wanying speak softly.

"Mrs. Song was originally the first wife of Mr. Xie. It was Jiarou who stole her husband first. What you said is really biased."

However, those noble ladies showed contempt.

“This further proves how scheming she is.

Xie Zhuangyuan was a man and an official in the court, so it was normal for him to have three wives and four concubines.

What’s more, our princess is the daughter of Prince Gong!

If the two of them get married, it will be of great help to Xie Zhuangyuan in his official career.

If it weren't for the extraordinary means of this Song, which man would be willing to give up such a beautiful lady as the princess for this crooked tree? "

“Besides, when a woman gets married, she should obey her husband and put him first in everything.

When Madam Song encounters such a thing, shouldn't she ask to be a concubine to help her husband find a future?

Instead, she insisted on getting a divorce, forcing Xie Zhuangyuan to rush into the palace to disturb the emperor. Isn't this a foxy temptation that brings disaster?

If you ask me, such a shameless woman should be thrown into a pond and let other women in the world learn from her mistakes!"

Song Tian was really shocked by these remarks.

Looking at Lu Wanying again, she doesn't seem to be speaking sincerely for her.

At this moment, I am smiling secretly with my lips pursed, feeling so comfortable!
