The upright forensic doctor bumped into the drama prince

"Come on, please come here, Young Master Liu!"

Ji Linglan knew in her heart that Fu Nanling would not let him go outside alone, there was always someone around him secretly protecting him, that's why he said this.

Everyone was startled, not understanding what Ji Linglan meant.

"If you say please, please, this is Yushi's mansion, not Lingwang's mansion. If you want to bully others, you have come to the wrong place. Be careful, the master will visit the mausoleum tomorrow, and you will not be able to eat it." Qian said. Unscrupulous, with a faint complacency on his face.

Although Mrs. Li's face was ugly, she didn't stop her. Instead, she looked at Ji Linglan and said, "Young master, although my daughter-in-law's words are not pleasant, that's the reason. Lian'er is the grandson of the old man. Then His business is the family affairs of Yushifu, since it is a family matter, then King Laoling won't worry about it."

"Three years ago, I met Mrs. Liu once. She begged me to send her only son to the Yushi Mansion in the capital if she was unfortunately killed. That is her natal family and her son's grandfather Home, she swore that her son would not be treated harshly. But now that Young Master Liu has entered the Yushi Mansion, it is difficult for outsiders to see him, how can this not make people think too much?"

Mrs. Li's complexion became even uglier, but she still insisted on saying: "It's the old man who didn't take good care of him, which caused Lian'er to catch the cold. Don't worry, this young master. From now on, the old man will take Lian'er by his side, and he will personally raise Lian'er. I won't let him suffer any more."

"Master Liu, bring me back, Young Master Liu." Lu Jiu's voice came from outside the door, and he saw him leading a young man into the front hall.

Ji Linglan looked at the young man, and the first thing that caught his eye was the two unusually obtrusive palm prints, his face was so swollen that he couldn't see his original appearance.

Ji Linglan suppressed her anger and came to Liu Lian's side, trying to reach out to touch him, but he dodged in fear.Ji Linglan looked at Liu Lian's hands, the frostbite on his hands hadn't healed in such a warm weather.He took Liu Lian's hand and opened his sleeve, and red marks came into view, obviously the marks of being beaten with a hard object.

Ji Linglan was extremely angry, looked at the people in Yushi's Mansion, and said, "Is this what you call feeling cold?"

Mrs. Li's face turned red, the facts were in front of them, and they couldn't quibble.

"Young master, what happened to Lian'er was indeed caused by my negligence..."

"Enough!" Ji Linglan stopped Mrs. Li's words loudly, and said, "Mrs. Li, Mrs. Liu is your own daughter after all. If she knows that she loves and pampers the son she raised, she will be in her grandparents' house." After being treated like this, do you think she will die with regret?"

Mrs. Li couldn't hold back her face, she was annoyed in her heart, but she was speechless.

Qian's eyes rolled, and said: "In the past three years, our Yushi Mansion has not stopped him from eating or drinking, and it is enough to be worthy of him. Who would have thought that this kid's hands and feet are not clean, and he actually stole my food? If Qian Cai is caught by me, he will naturally have to be educated, otherwise, when he grows up and acquires bad habits, then our Yushifu will lose all face."

"I don't have it. Lian'er didn't take it. Qiu'er took it." Liu Lian looked at Qian with fear, but still complained for herself.

"Qiu'er has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child, how could he have taken it? You bastard just needs to deal with it!" Qian Shi pointed at Liu Lian and spoke harshly, looking like a shrew.

Ji Linglan knelt down and looked at Liu Lian, and said, "Lian'er, what did they accuse you of stealing?"

The word "framed" used by Ji Linglan has already taken a clear stand beside Liu Lian.

Liu Lian watched Ji Linglan's tears of grievance welling in his eyes. Only he knew how much he had suffered in Yushi Mansion in the past three years. He also yearned for the love of his grandfather and grandmother, but what he got was It was disappointment again and again. No one listened to what he said, and no one believed what he said. Since the old mother passed away, only Ji Linglan believed him unconditionally.

"One tael of silver. Brother, I didn't take it. Qiu'er took it."

Ji Linglan took out a handkerchief, wiped away his tears, and said, "Madam Li, where is the tael of silver that Lian'er stole? Who is Qiu'er?"

"Qiu'er is my son. He is just five years old this year. He has always been obedient and sensible. It is impossible for him to do such a stealthy thing." Qian took out the silver from his sleeve pocket and said, "Here, this is the silver. Don't talk about me." Wrong him."

Ji Linglan glanced at Xiao Linzi, Xiao Linzi understood, took the silver from Qian's hand, and handed it to Ji Linglan.

Ji Linglan took the silver and looked at it, and said, "Where is Qiu'er?"

A child walked out of the crowd, short and fat, with layers of flesh on his face, looked up at Ji Linglan, and said, "Are you calling me?"

Ji Linglan looked him up and down, and said, "You took this money?"

Qiu'er glanced at Qian Shi, shook her head, pointed to Liu Lian and said, "He took it."

Ji Linglan knelt down and looked at Qiu'er's hand, and said, "What kind of candy are you holding in your hand? Is it delicious?"

As soon as Ji Linglan talked about the food, Qiu'er's eyes lit up immediately, and she spread her hands and said, "This is honey peanut candy. My mother specially asked someone to make it for me. It's very delicious."

"Have you ever eaten Lian'er?"

Qiu'er glanced at Qian Shi once again, and just about to speak, Ji Linglan said: "If Qiu'er is telling the truth, I will make you corn maltose, which is even more delicious than this."

Qiu'er's eyes sparkled, and she said, "He didn't eat it, and my mother wouldn't let me give it to him. Is corn malt candy really delicious?"

Ji Linglan nodded and said, "It's delicious. I'll make it ready for you tomorrow."

Ji Linglan understands that this is suspected of inducing a confession, but now, he doesn't want to entangle with these people anymore.He stood up and spread his palms, and said: "This is the silver that Mrs. Li took out just now. It not only smells of honey, but also has a sticky touch. It was clearly taken by the hand that took the honey peanut candy, and Lian'er There is no smell of honey on her hand, nor does it feel sticky to the touch, this silver is held by Qiu'er, not Lian'er."

Ji Linglan looked at Qiu'er again and asked, "Qiu'er, am I right?"

Qiu'er hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "It's my money, I want to buy walnut cakes."

"Qiu'er, what nonsense are you talking about!" Qian reprimanded with an ugly expression.

"Mother, you are fierce to me, woo woo..." Qiu'er sat down on the ground and burst into tears.

Seeing that everyone looked over, Qian quickly said: "You can't believe a child's words, don't listen to him."

Qiu'er, who was sitting on the ground, cried and said, "It's my mother who told me to lie, woo woo, it's my mother who said that if I do something wrong, I will push it to Liu Lian, woo woo..."

Qian's face turned red with anger, she knelt down and grabbed Qiu'er's ear, saying: "I'll make you talk nonsense, let you talk nonsense..."

Mrs. Li scolded loudly: "Enough! Don't you feel ashamed enough?"

Ji Linglan reached out and touched Liu Lian's head, and said: "Lian'er has been wronged, my brother took you out of here, are you willing to go with my brother?"

Liu Lian nodded without hesitation and said, "Lian'er is willing!"

Seeing Ji Linglan pulling Liu Lian to leave, Mrs. Li finally couldn't hold back and stopped her voice: "Master, Lian'er is Lao Shen's grandson and a member of the Li family, what right do you have to take him away. "

"Rights? Mrs. Li, look at his injuries, look at his thin body with only a few bones left, how do you say that Lian'er is your grandson? If you leave him in the The next time I come to this Yushi mansion, I'm afraid I will see his body. Madam Liu asked me to take a good look at Gu Lian'er before she died. It was because I was incompetent that I didn't realize it earlier. It is impossible for me to keep him here now. This place that eats people without spitting out their bones."

Qian interjected: "He can go, but he can't take anything from our Li family."

Ji Linglan smiled mockingly, and said: "Don't worry, I will never take a stitch from your Li family. As for the clothes, I will send someone to pack them when I go back."

"Mr. Qian, go back to your yard, don't come out again to embarrass yourself!" Mrs. Li was furious, and said, "Come here, bring Madam inside."

Qian yelled confidently: "I see who dares to touch me!"

Lin Butler looked around, gritted his teeth and said, "Come here, take Madam back to the yard."

Two attendants walked out from the crowd, timidly approached Qian, and wanted to reach out, but Qian slapped each of them with a slap in the face.Qian scolded: "All of you have eaten your heart and leopard's courage, and you don't even look at who is in charge of the Li family. Believe it or not, I'll buy you white-eyed wolves right now."

Ji Linglan pulled Liu Lian and walked out, ignoring the mess in Yushi's mansion.

Mrs. Li was very angry when she saw Qian's slapstick, but she also knew that Liu Lian could not be allowed to leave, otherwise they would really lose face of the Yushifu, so she quickly said: "Stop them, we can't let them leave the Yushifu !"

A cold light appeared in Ji Linglan's eyes, and he said, "Brother Lu, Xiao Linzi, today we will break into the Yushi's Mansion."

"Yes, son."

Ji Linglan looked back at Liu Lian, and comforted her, "Don't worry, Lian'er, I will definitely take you out of here."

Liu Lian nodded heavily, and said, "Yes!"

How could the attendants of Yushifu be the opponents of Lu Jiu and Xiao Linzi? Ji Linglan walked towards the gate without stopping.Suddenly the door of the mansion opened wide, and Fu Nanling appeared at the door, standing beside a thin middle-aged man.

A group of people entered the door, and the porter quickly closed the door.

Looking at the mess in front of him, the middle-aged man's face was so gloomy that he could drip water, he bowed slightly towards Fu Nanling, and said: "My lord, it's the old minister who is incompetent, and the housekeeper is not strict, so the lord laughed at me."

Fu Nanling waved his hand and said: "Master Li is busy with state affairs all day long, so it is reasonable for him to take care of family affairs. I am an outsider, so I shouldn't ask Mr. Li about family affairs, only family harmony can make everything prosperous. How can you feel at ease about the affairs of state if you are being messed up by others? Besides, if the common people know that the stately Yushifu is in such a state, I am afraid that it will damage Lord Li's reputation as an official."

"Don't worry, my lord, the next official knows it well."

Mrs. Li hurried forward to salute, and said: "I will see His Royal Highness Mausoleum."

Fu Nanling looked at her, and said coldly: "Madam Li even dares to touch this king's people, this king can't bear your courtesy."

"My lord, please calm down. I did this in a moment of urgency. I had no intention of offending my lord. Please forgive me."

"Old Madam Li, Young Master Liu was personally sent by the King to the Yushi Mansion. He has been reminded and told that he is the orphan of a meritorious official, so he must be taken care of. Every year and festival, the King will send rewards to Liu Xiao Young Master, you have everything you need for food, money, and clothing for the four seasons. Mrs. Li should be very clear about my king's intentions for Young Master Liu."

Every time Fu Nanling said something, Mrs. Li's expression turned ugly, and she looked at Li Zhi for help.Li Zhi was indifferent and didn't even look at her.

"Let's not talk about a tael of silver. In the past three years, this king has successively rewarded Mr. Liu's property one after another. The sum is at least 3000 taels. What about silver? What about clothes? This king doesn't take a single cent of your Li family. It should be okay for this king to take away his own things."

As soon as Qian Shi heard that she wanted money, she couldn't help interjecting: "Liu Lian spent all the money, it has nothing to do with us, if the prince wants it, he will go to him."

Fu Nanling looked at Qian Shi coldly, and said: "This king is talking, you don't have the right to intervene, come here, clap your mouth!"

"Yes, my lord."

With a wave of Xiao Lizi's hand, two eagle guards quickly stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right to support Qian.Qian Shi wanted to spoil her, but it was the Yingwei who held her up, not only failed to break free, but was kicked to the ground by one of them.

Xiao Lizi rolled up his sleeves, raised his hand and slapped Qian Shi, the sound of "pa pa pa" was endless, and Qian Shi screamed.Qiu'er, who was crying, shut her mouth, timidly shrank aside, and watched Qian Shi being beaten.In the end, not only Qian's tooth was knocked out, but her voice was also hoarse.

Yingwei let go of Mrs. Qian, who was arrogant and domineering just now, now spread out on the ground like a dead fish.Mrs. Li was so frightened that her face turned pale, fearing that she would be the next to be punished.And Li Zhi watched coldly from the beginning to the end, without any intention of stopping it.

Fu Nanling glanced at Mrs. Li disdainfully, then turned to look at Li Zhi, and said, "Young Master Liu, I will take you away. Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will not reveal a word about today's matter. I hope Master Li can solve the family affairs well, and don't let others see the joke again."

Li Zhi bowed and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the next official will handle it properly and send you off respectfully."

Fu Nanling looked at Ji Linglan and said softly, "Alan, let's go."

Ji Linglan bowed slightly and said, "Yes, my lord."

Fu Nanling suddenly turned around, looked at Mrs. Li, and said: "By the way, I almost forgot, little Li, later I will make a list of the items that this king has bestowed on Mr. Liu in the past three years, and give Mrs. Li a list. The king wants to take back all the pieces, otherwise they will spit it out for the king no matter how they eat it!"

"Yes, my lord, the servant obeys."

Ji Linglan pulled Liu Lian, followed Fu Nanling, and left the Imperial Palace smoothly.

Outside Yushi Mansion, Ji Linglan looked at the carriage at the door, hesitated for a moment, then pulled Liu Lian into the carriage, Fu Nanling followed closely, and sat opposite Ji Linglan.

"Alan, what happened to Lian'er was my negligence, I'm sorry."

Ji Linglan touched Liu Lian's cheek lightly, and asked, "Does it hurt so much?"

Liu Lian glanced at Fu Nanling timidly, shook his head and said, "Brother, I don't feel any pain anymore."

"Lian'er, don't worry, you will follow me from now on, and I won't let anyone hurt you again."

Liu Lian said with red eyes: "Thank you brother, Lian'er will be obedient and won't cause trouble for brother."

"Lian'er, how did the old nanny who followed you die?"

"He died of illness." Liu Lian, who had never cried before, couldn't help but shed tears, and said, "Mammy is sick and has no money to buy medicine. I went to ask my aunt for money to save Mammy, but my aunt didn't care and locked me in the yard. Mammy died of illness not long after. Uncle... Auntie ordered Mammy to be thrown into a mass grave. I secretly searched for it, but I couldn't find it all night..."

Ji Linglan took Liu Lian into her arms, feeling uncomfortable. For such a small child, it takes a lot of courage to stay in the mass grave for a whole night, which is enough to show the weight of the old mother in Liu Lian's heart.Seeing the only person in the world who loved him and loved him slowly pass away in front of him, but he was powerless, this experience will inevitably become the shadow of Liu Lian's childhood, if not timely counseling, it is likely to leave serious psychological problems .

"Cry, just cry out." Ji Linglan patted Liu Lian's back lightly, soothing his emotions gently.

Fu Nanling watched from the side, feeling more and more uncomfortable. Before this, obviously Ji Linglan's tenderness belonged to him alone, but now he was beside Ji Linglan, but he turned a blind eye to it.

It wasn't until he returned to the palace that Liu Lian's mood stabilized. Ji Linglan took him back to his yard and carefully examined the wounds on his body. Fortunately, they were all just bruises and would not leave scars. He had to take care of him for a few days It will be fine.Ji Linglan asked someone to prepare hot water, and planned to bathe Liu Lian herself, but was dragged out by Fu Nanling who didn't know when to come.

Looking at the clenched wrist, Ji Linglan struggled and said, "My lord, let go."

Not only did Fu Nanling not let go, but he clenched it even tighter, saying: "Alan, don't you want to know why Li Zhi and Mrs. Li are so indulgent to Qian?"

How could Ji Linglan not understand his thoughts, but Fu Nanling's concealment was like a thorn in his heart, although it was not fatal, it was very painful.

With a strong wrist, Ji Linglan successfully broke free from Fu Nanling, and said: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to dwell on the past, as long as Lian'er stays with me in the future. If the prince has nothing else to do, please go back. "

Fu Nanling's long and narrow phoenix eyes glistened, and he looked at Ji Linglan aggrievedly, and said, "Alan, why are you always so cruel to me? It's obvious...it's obvious that we should be the closest people..."

Ji Linglan felt pain in her heart, but her face was extremely calm, and she said: "I thought we were close enough, but the fact is not. If we can't be honest with each other, then don't force it."

"Alan, I never ask your secret, why can't you allow me to have a secret too?"

Ji Linglan was startled, and then said: "Because my secret has nothing to do with you, but your secret I have participated in, that's the difference."

Fu Nanling's expression froze, watching Ji Linglan fell silent.

Ji Linglan waited for a while, but Fu Nanling didn't intend to speak. Ji Linglan couldn't help being disappointed again, and said: "My lord, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you."

Fu Nanling stepped forward to stop Ji Linglan, and said: "Alan, the current situation is tense and I can't be distracted. Can you promise me not to leave me before I confess to you?"

Ji Linglan said lightly: "Don't worry, my lord, I will take care of the overall situation."

"Alan, we agreed, you call me Aling in the palace."

Ji Linglan could fully understand the emotion in Fu Nanling's eyes, he was not feeling well now, but before the matter was clarified, he really couldn't act as if nothing had happened.

"My lord, what are you afraid of? What can't be said directly, do you know that waiting is the most tormenting?"

"I'm afraid you will leave me!" Fu Nanling almost blurted out.

Ji Linglan's heart throbbed for a while, and he didn't dare to look into Fu Nanling's eyes. He was really afraid that his heart would soften for a while, and he would continue like this without knowing why.

"Alan, I'm not afraid of death. I can lose everything, but I can't lose you." Fu Nanling said with red eyes, "I admit that I did something wrong, I admit that I regret it, I I want to correct it, I want to love you well, I tried my best to restore it, but I found that I couldn't erase the past facts, I...I..."

Regret, grievance, sadness, anxiety, powerlessness, all kinds of negative emotions came one after another, tears fell one by one, Fu Nanling was spinning around in place, his emotions had reached the critical point of collapse.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore, calm down! I won't force you, I'll wait for you to confess to me, calm down!"

Fu Nanling stopped and looked at Ji Linglan in a daze. The bewilderment in his eyes made Ji Linglan feel pain in his heart. He knew that Fu Nanling liked him, and even loved him, but he didn't expect Fu Nanling to be so fond of him. His feelings are so deep.

"Alan, I'm sorry, I was wrong."

Fu Nanling looked at Ji Linglan with tears in his eyes, the panic in his eyes was very similar to Liu Lian who was wronged by the Qian family, but Liu Lian was afraid of being beaten, while Fu Nanling was afraid of leaving him.

"My lord..."

Just now when Ji Linglan called this title, he suddenly remembered that he was not an ordinary man, he was a high-ranking and favored prince, but now he was crying in front of him like a child.

Ji Linglan sighed softly, stepped forward and hugged Fu Nanling, his heart softened after all.

"Alan..."

Fu Nanling hugged Ji Linglan tightly, as if he had exhausted all his strength.Although it was only a few days, Fu Nanling felt that it was more difficult than his whole life.

"Alan, you are finally willing to talk to me."

"My lord, I can give you time, but I won't wait endlessly. I hope my lord will not misunderstand you."

"I know, I won't keep you waiting for too long." Fu Nanling quickly promised, "Alan, my father is seriously ill, and I may have to stay in the palace for a while. If you go out, you must bring enough people. And , if you meet Fu Nanping, don't listen to his own words, no matter what he said, you have to give me a chance to explain, okay?"

"Okay." Ji Linglan frowned and asked, "The emperor is seriously ill? How is the matter of establishing the crown prince going?"

"Father is naturally interested in Fu Nanping. It's just that so many things have happened recently that he has been hesitant. However, it will be a matter of time before Fu Nanping is crowned prince. What I have to do is to give Fu Nanping a fatal blow before that." .”

"Brother Lu said that King Ping has been attacking your people frequently recently, as if he knows everything about you, but is there a traitor among your people?"

"Alan, can we go into the room and sit down and talk about it?"

Ji Linglan was startled, and then realized that they were still in the yard, and then said, "Let's go, let's go into the house."

The two entered the room one after the other, went to the table and sat down. Xiao Linzi and Xiao Lizi, who had disappeared before, appeared out of nowhere. , Ji Linglan couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it.

Xiao Lizi bowed and said, "Master, lunch is ready."

Fu Nanling looked at Ji Linglan anxiously, and asked, "Alan, can I eat here?"

Ji Linglan nodded and said, "Let's pass on the meal, let Lian'er come over to eat some."

Xiao Linzi quickly said: "Young Master, the food for Young Master Liu has been delivered to the room by the servant, and he is eating right now."

Ji Linglan looked at Xiao Linzi, and couldn't help laughing. How could he not understand their little thoughts, but he didn't get too entangled.

The food was on the table quickly, Ji Linglan subconsciously looked at Fu Nanling's hand, the previous burn had healed, but the burn mark was still there, it won't heal for a while.

Sensing Ji Linglan's gaze, Fu Nanling felt a lot better. This small gesture was enough to prove that Ji Linglan really cared about him.

"Alan, you haven't eaten well these days, why have you lost so much weight?"

"Whether I use it or not, and what kind of food I use, I'm afraid you know better than me."
