Yang Jiming first came to a mask stand, where he bought masks when he went shopping with Shang Jiayan after the exam.

When Liu Dong, the mask seller, saw Yang Jiming coming, he quickly smiled and said, "Young Master Yang, long time no see. I heard that you have become an official, why are you free to come to the ghost market?"

"Uncle Liu, how's the business going?"

"It's okay, it's enough to make ends meet, and I also want to thank Mrs. Third Young Master for taking care of my business."

Yang Jiming smiled indifferently and said, "He bought a mask from you once, so why don't you take care of him?"

Liu Dong froze for a moment, and said in surprise: "No, just the day before yesterday, Mrs. Zun's servant came to me to buy a mask."

Yang Jiming was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "What does that boy look like?"

Seeing his nervous and anxious appearance, Liu Dong couldn't help but put away his smile and think carefully about the situation at that time.

"He's not tall, he's a little thin, but he's quite handsome. He said he was Yang Sanshao, your wife's servant, and the young lady wanted a mask for fun. I didn't think much about it at the time, thinking that the young lady bought it earlier was bad. If it fell off, I took the initiative to pick out a ghost mask." Liu Dong pointed to him, "That's what it looks like."

Yang Jiming nodded solemnly.

Seeing his serious face, Liu Dong asked worriedly, "Sir Young Master Yang, am I all right?"

"No." Yang Jiming said, "Uncle Liu, you have helped me a lot."

Liu Dong smiled and said, "That's good."

Yang Jiming asked: "Uncle Liu, after that man bought the mask, did you see where he went?"

Liu Dong said, "I see, it's the spice shop diagonally opposite."

Yang Jiming looked back at the spice shop, thanked Liu Dong, the mask stall, and went to the spice shop.

The owner of the spice shop is a native of the capital and has been doing business in the Western Regions for many years.

The owner of the spice shop said: "The day before yesterday, Mrs. Zun's servant came and bought a box of crushed jade ointment. Putting it on the body can not only emit a delicate fragrance, but also make the skin delicate and smooth. However, pregnant women must not use it. It contains Lots of musk."

Yang Jiming confirmed: "He himself said that he is my wife's servant?"

"Yes, he also emphasized it several times, telling me to give him the best Broken Jade Paste."

"Did he say anything else?"

"Oh, he also asked me where I could find medicines from the Western Regions. I told him to find old man Zhang at the end of the street. Old man Zhang was like me. He used to go to the Western Regions often. I was in the spice business, and he was in the medicinal material business."

After Yang Jiming thanked him, he went to find that old man Zhang.From old man Zhang, he got finger tips.

Old man Zhang said: "The young man claimed to be Mrs. Yang Sanshao's servant. I was puzzled at the time. People who come to my place to buy medicine want to cover themselves so that their parents can't recognize them, but he is fine. I'm afraid Nobody knows who he is."

Yang Jiming asked: "Finger drunk, where else can I buy it?"

Old man Zhang said quite proudly: "I dare say that no one in the entire capital except me sells flicking drunk."

Later, Yang Jiming found a painter, and based on the descriptions of old man Zhang and others, he drew a portrait of a man who claimed to be Shang Jiayan's servant.

Xu Yihuan stamped his seal personally, and the whole city searched for this person, and even offered a huge reward.

Yang Jiming brought a copy of the portrait home and showed it to Shang Jiayan.

Shang Jiayan took a closer look, frowned and said, "It's a bit like Qi Yue, the servant I sent back to the Shang Mansion together with Hongyu."

Hearing this, Yang Jiming quickly told Wu Liang to go to Shang Jiashu immediately.

Shang Jiayan sighed softly, "I don't know who I offended, to frame me like this."

Yang Jiming put his hands on his shoulders, "Don't worry, no matter what monsters or monsters, I will find him."

Shang Jiayan nodded lightly, "You have to be more careful yourself."

The two snuggled together quietly for a while, and then went to the small study to read together.

When Wu Liang came back, Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan were still in the small study.

"Young Master, Young Madam, Qi Yue ran away, Master Shang searched the entire Shang Mansion and found no one."

Yang Jiming said in surprise, "What do you mean by running away?"

"The last person in Shang's mansion to see Qi Yue was yesterday evening, and no one saw him all day today. Young Master Shang said that he is responsible for finding out the person, and asked me to come back and report to Young Master and Young Madam."

Yang Jiming said: "Brother is responsible for the search, and we can't be idle. Wu Liang, you go to Shuntian Mansion tomorrow morning, and ask Zhang Yong and Zhang Butou to help find someone together."

"Yes."

The next day, under the search of two groups of people, Qi Yue took the initiative to go to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion.

Qi Yue pleaded guilty and testified that Shang Jiayan was behind the scenes.

Li Yixun sent someone to Wumuhou's mansion to ask Shang Jiayan, and at the same time acquiesced to Zhang Yong to find someone to inform Yang Jiming at the Ministry of Punishment.

When Yang Jiming received the news, he put everything aside immediately and went straight to the Yamen of Shuntian Mansion.When he arrived, Shang Jiayan hadn't come yet.

Yang Jiming asked Li Yixun for details, and Li Yixun told him everything.

Not long after, Shang Jiayan also came.

Shang Jiayan smiled slightly at Yang Jiming and nodded, and Yang Jiming's tense nerves relaxed a little.

Yang Jiming was not afraid that Qi Yue would frame Shang Jiayan or him, but he was afraid that if Qi Yue did not show up, there would be no clues to continue the investigation.

During Li Yixun's interrogation, Qi Yue killed him and said that Shang Jiayan ordered him to buy medicine.As for how Duke Cheng and Aunt Zhao of Wumuhou's Mansion were killed, he didn't know.

After leaving the hall, Li Yixun put Qi Yue in prison, and invited Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan to the inner hall.

Yang Jiming took Shang Jiayan's hand and squeezed his palm lightly, trying to make him relax.

Shang Jiayan shook his hand vigorously and smiled at him, telling him not to worry about himself.

After they talked with Li Yixun, Yang Jiming went to the prison to interrogate Qi Yue.

Looking at the various instruments of torture around her, and seeing Yang Jiming's gloomy expression, Qi Yue was still frightened.

"Second uncle, everything I say is the truth."

Yang Jiming said coldly: "These are not important, the important thing is that I don't allow anyone to hurt Jing Shuo. Since you dare to frame Jing Shuo in court, how can I let you go?"

When the words fell, he signaled the yamen servant to punish Qi Yue.

Those who cooperate with Yang Jiming are all old acquaintances from Shuntian Mansion, and they will be sentenced immediately after receiving the instruction.

Qi Yue was so frightened that her face turned pale, "Second Young Master, this is Shuntian Mansion, how can you use lynching, Mr. Fu Yin will punish you!"

Yang Jiming sneered again and again: "Do you think I can appear here without Mr. Li's permission?"

"You are guarding each other!"

"Whatever you say, you won't be able to make it through today anyway."

Under his increasingly panic-stricken eyes, Yang Jiming said sharply, "Sentence!"

With the torture equipment on her body, Qi Yue cried out in fright, and said in a trembling voice before the torture was executed: "I say, I say!"

Yang Jiming gestured for them to remove the torture equipment.

Qiyue cried and said: "The third son asked me to do it, the third son of Shangfu!"

The corners of Yang Jiming's lips curled up, and he said, "Okay, tell Mr. Li yourself."

Lin Yaohui ran to invite Li Yixun over.

Yang Jiming saw that Shang Jiayan was following him, and walked quickly to his side, and said disapprovingly: "The prison is damp and smelly, it's not the place for you, go back quickly, we'll be fine in a while."

The guards are very speechless, they are cleaned every day, and they pay attention to ventilation.

Shang Jiayan smiled lightly, and said softly, "It's okay, I want to hear what Qi Yue has to say."

Qi Yue said: "After Hongyu was sold, the third young master told me that the next person to be dealt with would be me."

Yang Jiming said, "Do you believe this too?"

"I believe it!" Qi Yue said, "Madam arranged for me and Hongyu to be the second young master's dowry, but the second young master sent us back to Shang's mansion. When we return to Shang's mansion, we return to Shang's mansion. We are servants anyway. But Hongyu Yu was killed!"

Li Yixun looked at Yang Jiming and Shang Jiayan, and Shang Jiayan said, "Ruby was sold because of an affair with the servant."

"No!" Qi Yue yelled, feeling a little emotionally broken, "Hongyu didn't have an affair with the servant, she was pregnant with the flesh and blood of the young master, and it was the young lady who harmed her!"

Shang Jiayan was slightly taken aback, but he didn't believe it, and said: "Red jade is ruby, you are you, you have done nothing wrong, what are you afraid of?"

"I tried to seduce the second son-in-law, the second son will let me go?" Qi Yue looked in disbelief, convinced that Shang Jiayan would harm him.

Shang Jiayan said: "If I want to punish you, do you think you can still frame me?"

Qi Yue was stunned by the rhetorical question, unable to recover for a long time.

When she came back to her senses, Qi Yue's face was pale, with remorse in her eyes, and she murmured: "How could this be? The third son didn't say that."

After reading the confession recorded by the master, Li Yixun asked the master to sign it for Qi Yue.

Yang Jiming and his wife thanked Li Yixun and other people in Shuntian Mansion, and then Yang Jiming took Qi Yue's confession back to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and handed it to Xu Yihuan.

Xu Yihuan pondered slightly, and asked, "Does Jiashu know?"

"When Xiaguan left Shuntian Mansion, someone was sent to inform him."

Not long after, Shang Jiashu hurried over.

Yang Jiming recounted the matter from beginning to end.

Shang Jiashu asked: "Is it okay to speak?"

Yang Jiming said: "Jing Shuo is fine, and his mood is also very stable. He has already returned to the Hou's Mansion."

"That's good." Shang Jiashu nodded slightly, with a dignified expression. "Master Xu, please send someone to invite Shang Jiawen. Also, go to Shuntian Mansion to bring Qi Yue here."

Xu Yihuan nodded, and Yang Jiming went to do it immediately.

Taking advantage of this gap, Shang Jiashu sent someone back to the mansion to inform Shang Jingcheng and his wife.

So, after Shang Jiawen was brought to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Xu Yihuan personally presided over the trial, and Shang Jingcheng and Shang Jiashu attended the trial together.

Shang Jiawen's face was calm, insisting that he didn't know why Qi Yue wronged him.

Qi Yue was escorted here by the yamen servants, took a look at the big figures in the hall, and told the truth without being pressed.

Shang Jiawen and Qi Yue confront each other and insist on not pleading guilty.

Shang Jiawen's eyes were red, he looked at Shang Jingcheng aggrieved, and said in a sobbing voice: "Father, I did something wrong before, so my mother asked me to marry someone in the dark, and I didn't complain. , how can I admit it?"

After all, he is his own flesh and blood, Shang Jingcheng relented.

Seeing that Shang Jingcheng was a little shaken, Yang Jiming looked anxiously at Shang Jiashu.

Shang Jiashu said sternly: "Third brother, you have been full of hostility towards your second brother since you were young, but your second brother has always repaid you with kindness. Do you know what consequences he will face if he succeeds in being framed?"

Hearing this, Shang Jingcheng remembered what Shang Jiawen had done, frowned slightly, became ruthless, and watched silently.Among the two sons, he has always chosen the legitimate son.

It was Shang Jingcheng's attitude that made Shang Jiawen hate him even more, hated Shang Jiayan, and hated everyone in the Shang family.
