Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

As soon as Ying threw the painting aside, Ou Jianglin handed over another one, which was already unfolded: "Master, this is what the girl looked like when she was in Linshui Town."

Ying raised his eyelids and looked at Ou Jianglin.

Ou Jianglin handed the painting forward.

Ying then looked over. The woman in the painting only had some resemblance to Miss Li in her eyes and eyebrows. Her skin was a little rough, and her complexion was incomparable to Miss Li's. She was wearing a light green coarse cloth skirt.

Ying looked at the painting he had thrown aside. There were two paintings of the same person, but the difference was that one was wearing makeup and the other was not.

So, the so-called resemblance is nothing more than made up with rouge and powder.

It is easy to draw a person's skin, but difficult to draw his bones.

He couldn't understand why Miss Li would bring such a person to Prince Heng's palace.

It's obvious that this person is not someone who likes to make trouble.

East Palace

The prince leaned on the pillow, his peach blossom eyes showing sinister intent. He played with the dagger in his hand and ordered his chief guard: "Go, kill all of Hu Zhenfang's family. Don't spare a single one. You bastard, you actually dared to slander me in front of my father!"

The captain of the guards was startled and immediately looked at Duke Dingguo who was sitting next to him.

Duke Dingguo glanced at him and stood up to stop him: "Your Highness, you can't do that."

The prince looked over and said, "Why, Grandfather, are you going to stop me? Let this old bastard ruin my reputation like this? If I don't kill Hu Zhenfang's family today, he will dare to gossip in front of my father when he becomes a minister. Grandfather, this is called killing one to warn the hundred, killing one to warn the hundred!"

As he spoke, his voice became shrill and piercing.

Queen Jiang came in from outside and waved her hand to let the chief guard leave first: "Ji'er, your grandfather is right. We can't touch Hu Zhenfang at this time. Not only can we not touch him, but we have to send people to protect him."

Ling Ji was so upset that his face turned the color of pig liver: "Why! Mother, I can't swallow this anger. I wish they were all dead."

"You have to swallow it even if you can't! Ji'er, your father asked you to reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors, so you should stay in the East Palace for the next few days. If more than 50 members of Hu Zhenfang's family died in prison at this time, who do you think they would suspect?"

Ling Ji clenched his back teeth. The moment Hu Zhenfang reported to his father at the court meeting, he wanted to skin him alive.

"Don't worry, the Queen Mother won't let Hu Zhenfang's family live too long."

Duke Dingguo frowned: "What does the queen want to do?"

"Father, Ji'er can't do it, but Yao'er can."

Duke Dingguo frowned and thought: "It's possible, but we can't let anyone find out."

The queen sat down leisurely and said, "Don't worry, father. Yao'er has a group of assassins under his command. This matter cannot be traced back to Yao'er."

……

At the same time, in the Fifth Prince's Mansion, Ling Yan personally poured a glass of wine for the Third Prince Ling Yao: "Third brother, this is fifty-year-old girl's red wine. I finally got a jar of this. Please try it."

Ling Yao curled his lips slightly, picked up the wine glass, tilted his head back and poured the wine into his throat: "Fifth brother asked me to come here, is there something?"

Ling Yan smiled and said, "Look at what you said, Third Brother. We two brothers haven't sat down to drink for a long time. I immediately thought of sharing the good stuff with you. It's a pity that the eldest brother, the Crown Prince, has been confined by our father, otherwise the three of us brothers could get drunk today."

As Ling Yan spoke, he raised his eyelids to glance at Ling Yao, then refilled the wine glass in front of him.

Ling Yao took another sip of the wine and put the cup heavily on the table: "Prince, haha, you didn't know how to clean up after doing something, and someone caught you and brought it to father... haha."

Ling Yan paused while pouring the wine: "No way, is it really the prince who did these things?"

Ling Yao raised his eyelids. How could he not know what Ling Yan was planning? The prince was stupid, could he be stupid too?

"The blood letter and the witnesses are all there. Fifth brother, what do you think?" He took a sip and drank another glass of wine. It was a fifty-year-old girl's red wine, a good thing.

"This, the prince shouldn't be so careless. Well, just spend some money to cover up the matter, or just kill the person. Why is there still a victim?"

"Hmph." Ling Yao snorted. Seeing that Ling Yan was not going to pour him any more wine, he picked up the wine jug and filled it up again.

Ling Yan hurriedly took the wine pot from him: "Look, I forgot to pour the wine, I'll do it, I'll do it. Alas, third brother, you are also a legitimate son, but it's a pity that you were born three years later than the eldest brother. I really feel sorry for you. To be honest, the prince is just an elder, the others are not as good as the third brother at all."

Ling Yao half-closed his eyes and glanced at Ling Yan: "Fifth brother, do you have an idea?"

Ling Yan laughed: "Third brother thinks highly of me. If third brother asked me which Chu Guan girl is beautiful or which wine shop has the best wine, I would be able to tell you a few, but I don't know how to do this."

"However, I heard that Mr. Hu has caught a cold these days. Prisons are very cold. In the middle of winter, there aren't even any decent quilts on the beds. Mr. Hu has worked hard for Northern Jin all his life. I hope nothing happens to him."

Ling Yao stood up and said, "Fifth brother, what you said makes sense. I will ask the Minister of Justice Zhang Maozheng to send a quilt to Hu Zhenfang."

Ling Yan cupped his hands and said, "Among us brothers, third brother is the most righteous."

After Ling Yao left, the staff came out from behind the screen and asked, "Your Highness, will the Third Prince take action against Hu Zhenfang?"

Ling Yan took the handkerchief handed to her by the maid and wiped her hands, then threw the fine silk handkerchief heavily on the place where Ling Yao had just sat.

"Humph, of course he would. Ling Ji, that idiot, who also crawled out of Queen Jiang's belly, could be so partial to my father. He ignored the evidence right in front of him and instead sentenced Hu Zhenfang to death. How could the third brother accept this?"

What's the point of brotherly love and respect? In the royal family, it's just bullshit.

The aide nodded and said, "Once Hu Zhenfang dies, the ministers in the court will definitely think that it was the prince who did it. After such a commotion in the court, and the ministers jointly submit a petition, the emperor will definitely issue an order to depose the prince."

"By that time, we will have people present evidence that the Third Prince committed murder and framed someone. Even if the Third Prince survives, no one will support him as the crown prince."

The staff member bowed and complimented: "Kill two birds with one stone, your highness has a good plan."

Ling Yan laughed.

After leaving the Fifth Prince's Mansion, Ling Yao's guard asked, "Your Highness, do you really want to send a quilt to Hu Zhenfang?"

Ling Yao looked back at the gate of the Fifth Prince's Mansion, and a mocking arc appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Send it off, of course I will. Not only will I send it off, but I will also go there in person to send it off."

Unfortunately, Ling Yan was happy too early. Ling Yao was not as stupid and brainless as Ling Ji. How could he not know what Ling Yan was planning by saying this today?

Ling Yao asked someone to send a quilt, and he really only sent in one quilt. He even said in front of everyone in the full room that the Fifth Prince was kind-hearted and specially asked him to help send a quilt to Lord Hu.

There are so many people here.
