Princess, how am I from you?

The time has passed into the twelfth lunar month. Seeing that the New Year is getting closer, the people in the mansion seem to be busy. At the same time, the smiles on everyone's faces are getting more and more.Guan Xin couldn't tell what he was busy with, as if if he wasn't busy with something, or if he didn't act a little busy, it wouldn't be called New Year's Eve.She was actually quite busy, busy helping Li Tai prepare for the competition.Of the three competitions, the first one requires the most preparations, because a large number of ancient poems are needed as candidates, and the selected poems should be neither too simple nor too uncommon.And it doesn't have to be ancient poems, you can also choose classic sentences from many classic literary works as test questions. Guan Xin's job is to select these sentences with several staff members in Li Tai's mansion, and then fill in the blanks. The test questions are arranged according to the number.Guan Xin's idea is to do [-] questions in each group, a total of [-] groups, and then randomly select them.And at that time, except for the ones that were drawn, the rest can be sealed up for future use.

On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month in the 14th year of Zhenguan, it was sunny.

"The end of the new year is approaching, and the gifts to the various prefectures should be ordered and handled. If you don't have anything to do today, don't go out. Later, you can check the warehouse with the warmth. This year, you will follow the exchanges between the various prefectures. Take care of it, and ask me again if you are undecided."

Guan Xin was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, Yuzhang was going to train her in the direction of the housekeeper, which also showed that Yuzhang was accepting her.

For many days, Guan Xin has been on duty as usual with Nuan Xin and Nuan Nuan, but when she was on duty, she never asked to sleep together, and she never even showed any intimacy.Naturally, Yuzhang would not take the initiative to mention it, but she could feel that Guan Xin was restraining herself. Whenever Guan Xin was on duty at night, Guan Xin would stay by her bedside for a long time until she fell asleep. Xin went to rest earlier, but she would not listen to her words every time, and then she simply stopped talking. Guan Xin always looked at her with indescribable affection, which made her feel that her heart was a little bit in these affections. sinking.

The plan did not change quickly, and things that were expected to be good often did not develop according to their intentions. Not long after Guan Xin followed Nuan Yi into the warehouse, and the inventory had just begun, Chuntao rushed over to find Guan Xin.

"Sister Xinxin, come out. Just now, the boy at the door sent a message that something happened in the restaurant and asked you to go over quickly."

Guan Xin handed the account book directly to Nuan Yi, "Go ahead, I'll go and have a look. Don't tell the princess just yet, so she won't worry about it."

Nuan Yi nodded, waited for Guan Xin to leave in a hurry, the more she thought about it, the more something was wrong, she quickly tidied up, locked the door of the warehouse, and hurried back to the main courtyard.

Yuzhang was practicing calligraphy. Seeing that Nuan Yi came back so quickly, his expression was still uncertain, but he couldn't see Guan Xin, so he couldn't help frowning, "What happened?"

Nuan Yi bit her lower lip, and finally said, "Sister Xinxin was called away by the people in the restaurant, saying that something happened in the restaurant. Just now Chuntao came to look for her, and after saying a few words, Sister Xinxin hurriedly followed , and also asked me not to tell the princess, saying that I was afraid that you would be worried, I just went to find Chuntao, she was not there, and the look of the two of them was not quite right, I think it was not a small matter."

"You send someone to follow and take a look."

"Yes, the servant will go here."

If Nuan Yi could say that her expression was wrong, it meant that Guan Xin's expression at that time would definitely not be good-looking, and it meant that the matter would not be trivial.

Nuan Yi came back after going out for a while, thought it over and asked tentatively, "Princess, do you feel that something is wrong with Sister Xinxin recently?"

Yuzhang raised his head, frowning silently.

"Nuanyi, do you have a fever, why are you talking nonsense, sister Xinxin is not well, there is nothing wrong."

"Nuan Xin, don't interrupt." Yuzhang stopped Nuan Xin, she knew that Nuan Yi was not a tongue-twister, and she had a delicate mind, so she must have seen something.

"My servant feels that recently, Sister Xinxin has always been preoccupied. Although she still plays with everyone as before, I have seen her in a daze when she is alone several times, and she always looks at the princess. It seems that I have something to say, but I don't say anything. I thought it was because I was too embarrassed to talk to Nuan Xin, so I took Nuan Xin away several times, trying to give her a chance to talk, but when I came back, She is still the same, and I don’t know if she has been wronged outside. I am afraid that the princess will worry, so she will not say anything when she comes back. I still remember the night when the princess returned from the Tang Mansion last month, sister Xinxin stood alone in the yard blowing the cold wind , I thought she was watching Nuan Xin not guarding the yard, but Nuan Xin was in the house at the time, she hurried back to her yard when she saw me coming back, her expression was not quite right at that time, she was a little out of her mind."

"Why didn't I find out." Nuan Xin muttered.

Yuzhang thought carefully about Guan Xin's behavior during this period. She really didn't notice this, but when Nuan Yi talked about the night she came back last month, she had an impression. Only that night, she felt that Guan Xin's mood was strange. It was weird, but she was too sleepy at the time, so she didn't care. Afterwards, Guan Xin was the same as before in front of her, there was no difference.If you have to talk about the difference, Guan Xin seems to be less flirtatious than before.But she didn't think much about it, she just thought that Guan Xin listened to her warning and restrained himself.Hearing what Nuan Yi said now, I feel that this is indeed a bit unusual. With Guan Xin's virtue of always pushing her forward, even if he restrained himself during the day, he should be more restless these few times on duty at night, An An Points are not the norm.

"When she comes back, don't say too much, and continue to observe secretly." Yuzhang decided to find an opportunity to ask himself, but he was afraid that Guan Xin would not tell the truth, but don't be afraid, she has a way.

Chun Tao said that the restaurant had eaten someone to death, and when Guan Xin hurriedly arrived, many people had already stopped outside the restaurant.Guan Xin knocked on the door and went in. Seeing that it was Guan Xin, shopkeeper Wang almost burst into tears. He quickly opened the door to let Guan Xin enter the room, and then immediately closed the door to prevent the outside from watching the excitement.

"Girl, you are here. This early in the morning, as soon as the old man opened the door, they brought people in. They insisted that we ate people to death. The world can learn from it. Our things are clean. How could he eat a dead person? There were so many guests yesterday, but he was the only one who died." This was the first time shopkeeper Wang encountered such a thing, and his eyes were red with anxiety.What the restaurant is most afraid of is that such a thing will not only affect its future business, but may also lead to a life lawsuit. Does he still have to go to jail at his age?

"Don't worry, have you reported to the official yet?"

"Reported. But the government hasn't come yet. How can this be good."

Guan Xin patted Shopkeeper Wang on the shoulder to calm him down.Turning around and coming to the center of the hall, looking at the figure covered in white cloth, then at the sobbing woman next to her, and the two strong men behind her, my brain hurts.She knew that she had been tricked again. This kind of harmful stalking was always played on TV, but she never thought that she would have the opportunity to meet it.

Guan Xin knelt down and wanted to lift the white cloth, but before she could make a move, the sobbing woman next to her immediately rushed over and pushed Guan Xin so that she could sit on the ground, lying on the corpse with a look on her face. He asked Guan Xin in a protective posture, "Who are you and what are you going to do? My husband has already been killed by this black shop. Do you want him to have no peace after death?"

"I'm the owner of this shop. You said that your husband died after eating the food in the shop. You should let me see the death certificate, right? Why don't you dare? Or are you simply trying to frame him?"

"You're talking nonsense. I didn't frame you. My husband was poisoned to death because he ate something from your store. Husband, how can we live as orphans and widows after you die. Open your eyes and see, Look at these people who hurt you are coming to bully our orphans and widows again."

Guan Xin's head hurt even more after being howled by that woman.It took a few deep breaths to suppress the anxiety.Squatting down in front of the woman, "Sister-in-law, don't be so busy crying, just explain the matter in detail, and we will go through it together. If your husband really died of poisoning caused by eating the food in my shop , then you can rest assured that I will be absolutely responsible to the end, not only for the funeral expenses of the deceased, but also for the lives of your orphans and widowed mothers, so that you will not be unable to survive, but if the matter has nothing to do with my shop, I will also be responsible Sympathy, help you deal with your husband's affairs, so we can't let him die in ignorance, let relatives and enemies be quick, right?"

What Guan Xin said was so sincere that the woman stopped crying and looked at Guan Xin in a daze. "I..."

"Sister-in-law, don't listen to her sophistry. Brother was poisoned after eating something from her house. She said that to shirk responsibility. You can't be fooled by her."

It was one of the strong men behind the woman who spoke.Guan Xin squinted his eyes for a look, and then turned his eyes back to the woman's face, but at this moment, the woman's eyes were a little dodged, and she seemed to be a little flustered. Seeing Guan Xin looking straight at her, she thought He covered his face with his hands and continued to cry.

Guan Xin knew that there was something wrong with this matter, but she was not sure whether it was to frame her or to blackmail her.If it's blackmail, it's easy to deal with, just send the money directly, although it's a bit aggrieved, but it saves trouble and worry.If it is framed, I am afraid it will not be so simple, let alone the opening of the store, it will end up in jail.

At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.Guan Xin motioned to shopkeeper Wang to open the door, the official messenger should be here, she has been here for so long, isn't the police efficiency of those government officials too low?

What Guan Xin didn't expect was that it wasn't the government official who entered the door, but Yuzhang and several guards with his warm heart.As soon as she was about to pass, she felt a gust of wind around her, and when she realized it, the woman had already thrown herself at Yuzhang's feet, hugging Yuzhang's legs and crying.

"I beg Your Royal Highness to make decisions for the women. The husband of the women is wronged."

Guan Xin hurried forward and Nuan Yi Nuan Xin wanted to pull the woman away, Yu Zhang frowned tightly, trying to escape but couldn't break away from the woman's hands.Guan Xin couldn't use his right hand, and she stomped her feet in hatred, "Pull her away quickly, don't let her bump into the princess."

The guards didn't dare to do anything without the master's order. Now Guan Xin's order came out, and she immediately stepped forward. The woman dared to bump into the princess in front of them. She was hitting them in the face, and she didn't hold back any strength. , Two of them stepped forward, directly grabbed the woman's elbow joint, forcing the woman to let go, immediately twisted the woman's arm and dragged it aside.The remaining two stepped forward directly, blocking Yuzhang's front.

"Is Your Highness alright?" Guan Xin asked in a low voice.

Yuzhang shook his head, telling Guan Xin not to worry, she actually felt uncomfortable after being hugged by a stranger, but the matter in front of her was more important. "How's the situation?" She rushed over immediately after receiving the news that the guards sent out had come back to inquire, but the specific situation was not yet known.The guard just reported back that someone was eaten to death in the store, and the body was carried over to make trouble.

"There is something strange, there should be a master messenger, but I don't know whether the other party's purpose is to blackmail or frame. I have already reported to the official, but the official has not yet arrived. I have reported for a long time. I am afraid..."

Yuzhang took out a seal from his pocket and handed it to a guard next to him, "Take my seal and go to the Governor of Chang'an, and let them deal with it quickly."

The guard turned around and left.Guan Xin came to the woman who was held by the guards again, and signaled to let her go. "Princess magnanimity, I miss you losing your husband, and you are in grief. You will not be punished for the crime of collision. If you have anything to say, please tell the princess well. Don't be as presumptuous as you were just now, or don't blame me for being rude. Throw them all out."

The woman moved her mouth timidly, then turned her head to look at the strong man behind her. Guan Xin had been staring at her movements, and of course also saw the woman's movements and the warning eyes.The woman was a little panicked, but she tried her best to hide her panic.Guan Xin saw them one by one.

"His Royal Highness, you have to be the master of the women. The woman Wang Wu's family lives in Sanshui Town. Her husband is a long-term worker in the Chen Mansion. He is..."

"Sister-in-law, why bother to talk nonsense to her, wait for the Governor of Chang'an to come, it's not too late, I want to lure my sister-in-law to get rid of the crime before the official comes, it's a good idea, hmph."

The woman did not speak any more, she just lowered her head and kept whimpering.

Seeing that he would not ask any more questions, Guan Xin was about to give up. Before turning around, he leaned into the woman's ear and said softly, "You'd better think about what happened. When the governor of Chang'an comes, you will be able to do everything right. Let me make it clear, and you also need to know a fact, no matter how powerful the person behind you is, I am from the Princess Mansion, and I can also sue the imperial court. Do you think that once the emperor intervenes in this matter, who will Dare to favor the master behind you. Originally, I thought you were pitiful and wanted to help you, maybe if you tell me the truth now, I can also consider letting you go and helping you." Guan Xin actually didn't think so. In the end, the emperor is something she can see whenever she wants. She doesn't know who is instigating this matter. She just wants to cheat and find the way.

The woman panicked, she was just an ordinary boss with the surname, not to mention the emperor, she had never thought of meeting this princess in her entire life, she was a little scared when the princess came, she would be caught by Guan Xin After being so frightened, she was even more frightened. Subconsciously, she turned her head to look at the two strong men. Seeing this, Guan Xin was even more certain that these two men were definitely not ordinary people. They should have been sent by the person behind the scenes to coerce the woman.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to be afraid, I don't believe that the government can still go with this black shop." One of the strong men saw that Guan Xin was also looking at him, pretending to be scared and brave.

Guan Xin sneered, came to Yuzhang's side, whispered a few words to the guard beside her, and the guard got Yuzhang's consent and left with fists folded.It's all a routine, this kind of thing has been performed [-] times in TV dramas. "Brother guards, please keep an eye on this place. Your Highness, it's cool downstairs. Go upstairs and rest for a while. The Fu Yin will come later, and it won't be too late to come down."

Yuzhang nodded, walked around the corpse on the ground, and followed Guan Xin upstairs.The warm-hearted and discerning one didn't enter the house, but stood guard at the door.Guan Xin closed the door, sat next to Yuzhang, and held her hands, "Why didn't you come out without a hand stove?"

"But I figured it out." Yuzhang came out in a hurry, and he completely forgot about the hand stove. Guan Xin would hold it in his hand, and then he felt that his hands were cold. He didn't know if it was cold or be scared.

"Someone must be instigating it, but I can't guess who it is. Here, I don't have many enemies. There are only a few, maybe it's not them, but those colleagues who feel that my restaurant is blocking their way of making money Maybe. I've seen this kind of routine a lot, but I didn't expect it to happen to me. Don't worry, it's okay, I have my own way."

The two of them were chatting upstairs, and after a while, there was a loud noise from below.Guan Xin went out and looked down. It was the governor of Chang'an who came in a hurry with a group of arresters, including the guards who asked to report to the officials.Asking Yuzhang to listen upstairs, Guan Xin went downstairs by himself. When he went downstairs, an old man was examining the corpse. Guan Xin followed him and closed his eyes in fright.However, she suppressed the nausea and fear, and once again set her eyes on the dead body. This was the first time she saw a real dead body with her own eyes. It looked more impactful than the pictures in the forensic science class. The corpse on the ground had purple lips, pale face, sunken cheeks, and round, cloudy eyes without pupils. It must have been in extreme pain before death, so it also had an expression of pain after death, standing behind Zuo Zuo He looked carefully at the face of the deceased again, and quickly looked away when he knew what to do, for he might suffer from insomnia tonight.

"Reporting to my lord, this person's lips were purple and his throat was black. He died of poisoning. Judging from the degree of his stiffness, he may have been dead for about six hours, probably around midnight last night."

"Come here, bring everyone here back to the government office, and promote them to investigate the case." The governor of Chang'an came to Guan Xin. He knew Guan Xin's background. Princess, even the fifth princess has a lot to do with this restaurant, but he can't help it, it's just a small Chang'an order, how could he be implicated in these gods' fights.Looking at the seal of Princess Yuzhang in Guan Xin's hands, he said bravely, "Where is Princess Yuzhang now?"

"I'm resting upstairs. I was bumped by this rude woman just now. I don't know why my lord didn't come to deal with this matter, so that His Highness was frightened."

The governor of Chang'an secretly swallowed his saliva, and rushed at the princess, oh my god, his neck is chilly, he has a feeling that if he can't hide this time, his head will definitely move. "It is the fault of this official that Her Royal Highness was frightened, but the official is really helpless. There is an urgent matter in the yamen that needs to be dealt with urgently, so the time was delayed, and I ask the princess to forgive the crime of the official. It's just this girl, as this The owner of the shop still needs the girl to go to the government office to help the government solve the case, so as to return the girl innocent."

"Guan Xin" Yuzhang came out from the room.

"Your Highness" Guan Xin turned around and came to Yuzhang's side, and handed over the seal in his hand.This was given to her by the guard when she went downstairs just now, and asked her to return it to the princess on her behalf.

"My next official, Shen Congwen, is meeting Her Royal Highness Princess Yuzhang."

Yuzhang took the seal, looked up at Shen Congwen coldly, and said to Guan Xin, "You take care of yourself, I'll be there soon."

"Well, thank you, Your Highness." Guan Xin turned to Shen Congwen who was still bowing and said, "Master Shen, let's go."

After everyone had left, Yuzhang ordered the guards to close the shop door and lock the doors and windows before getting into the carriage. She also wanted to go to Chang'an Mansion for a trial.

Guan Xin's hand is a first-hand experience of the scene of the grand master being promoted to the court for trial, which is not fun at all.For example, now, except for Li Shimin once, she has never kneeled before anyone, but this time she has to kneel in the courtroom, the cold and hard ground hurt her knees.

"What kind of grievances did the plaintiff have? Quickly and honestly."

The old man slapped the gavel on top, the woman trembled in fright, looked timidly at Guan Xin, and then at the two strong men behind her.

"Above the court, how can you look left and right, if you have any grievances, come quickly, otherwise you will be punished for contempt of the court." Shen Congwen patted the gavel again, and there was infinite resentment in his heart. When gods fight, they are the ones who suffer. kid.

"Yes, Min, Mrs. Wang Wu, who lives in Sanshui Town, her husband, Wang Dali, is a long-term worker in the Chen Mansion in the town. Last month, my husband came to the city and heard that there is a restaurant in the city. The food is rare in the world. When I got back, I told the woman that I must try it if I have the opportunity. Yesterday was my husband’s birthday, so I went to the restaurant in the city to buy some food and wine, and prepared to celebrate with the three of us, mother and child. It suddenly failed, and I left after a while, my lord, I beg you to make the decision for the women, how will the husband go, leaving us orphans and widows to live."

"Silent, don't make loud noises in the courtroom." Shen Congwen stopped the woman from crying, looked at Guan Xin who was calm and calm, and the group of people behind her, "The defendant has something to say."

Guan Xin gestured for shopkeeper Wang to answer, and shopkeeper Wang stepped forward to answer, "Caomin Wang Changrong is the shopkeeper of Juxian Restaurant. Usually, the owner's lady is not in the shop, and the villain manages it alone. As for the husband of this sister-in-law, the villain does not I don’t remember, because there are so many guests in this building every day, the hostess has issued an order from the first day of opening that no one is allowed to enter the kitchen, and all the food must be picked and washed before use. All the bad and rotten ones must be thrown away, and they are not allowed to be eaten by diners. Since the opening, the villain has been adhering to the orders of the owner, and has never brought in diners because the food is not clean and unpalatable. Today, the villain has opened the door, The sister-in-law brought someone in and insisted that she died after eating the food in the building. The villain was wronged. There were no less than a hundred guests yesterday. People, not to mention hatred, there is no way to talk about deliberately harming others, the villain has been wronged, and I ask adults to learn from it."

"The Great People's Girl has something to say." Guan Xin took the conversation, and after receiving Shen Congwen's hint, he continued, "I would like to ask this sister-in-law, you said that your husband bought the food in my building yesterday to celebrate his birthday, so may I ask?" Have you and your two children eaten those foods?"

"I, no, no, my family is not rich, and there are delicious food and drinks, so naturally I will use them first after my husband."

"What about the child, didn't eat a bite?" Guan Xin continued to ask.

"No, I didn't eat."

Guan Xin saw that the woman was flustered, her words were lacking confidence, and she didn't dare to look at her, so she suddenly raised her voice and asked, "You are lying, since your husband wants to celebrate the birthdays with you mother and son, there is no reason for him to eat by himself." , and you didn't take a bite, even if you are reluctant to eat it, but it is impossible for a father not to give it to the child, so if you all ate it, why are you all fine, and the only one who has the accident is himself, my lord, how about such a clumsy lie It can convince me and others, this is obviously a frame-up, please be aware of it."

"No, no, no, we really didn't eat. Before we had time to eat, my husband suddenly died. How dare we eat."

"Ha, are you deaf or stupid as an adult? Just now the author has stated that the time of death of the deceased is around midnight. What's the matter? Did your family eat dinner at midnight?" Guan Xin continued to be aggressive.

"The woman was wronged, wronged, my lord, the woman really did not lie." The woman kept crying and kowtowed.

Shen Congwen breathed a sigh of relief, the woman's flustered attitude explained everything, and Guan Xin's question was reasonable, the woman's words were indeed full of loopholes, and he had already seen the figure of Princess Yuzhang, so he stopped at the mansion Outside the lobby of the yamen, he naturally didn't dare to be negligent. Even if the person asked him, he would still have something to say. The princess heard the trial in person, and he couldn't help a little more admiration when he looked at Guan Xin for how he cheated like a petty official.Those few questions just now were actually what he wanted to ask, but he has been a parent officer for so many years, so it is not difficult to ask those questions. It's easy, because of her calmness, he thinks highly of her. She is indeed a person from the princess mansion, but she is different from those rural women in the mountains.

"There are still many doubts in this case. I need to find out by myself, and then I will go to the court for trial. The deceased Wang Dali is temporarily parked in the back hall. The Wang Wu family, the Guan family and the people of Juxian Building are not allowed to leave Chang'an without reason. If you want to leave, you need to report to the Yamen, wait for the officer to find out the truth, choose another day for retrial, and leave the court.”

The author has something to say:
