sick princess

Emperor Yongjia was furious when he heard the news that Baoluo and Lan Chengyu were in danger.

Someone dared to murder a member of the royal family in public, and the victim was his most cherished sister!If the person behind the scenes cannot be found out, how can the royal face be saved, and how can the safety of the royal family members be guaranteed?

Emperor Yongjia decreed to move Baoluo into Empress Dowager Xu's palace in order to take better care of Baoluo.Empress Dowager Xu learned that her daughter was assassinated outside the palace, was drenched in the rain and was frightened, and now she was unconscious, so she was naturally worried, and ordered the imperial doctors to wait in her palace early.

As for Lan Chengyu, he was arranged by Emperor Yongjia to investigate the matter together with Dali Siqing and Xingbu Shangshu.After this happened, Emperor Yongjia could no longer fully trust many officials in the court.Lan Chengyu was sent there not only for investigation but also for supervision.

Anyway, Lan Chengyu was also a person who went to the battlefield with Emperor Yongjia, and now he is still Emperor Yongjia's brother-in-law. Even if Emperor Yongjia didn't trust others, he always had some trust in him.

Although Lan Chengyu really wanted to stay by Baoluo's side until Baoluo woke up, but since Baoluo was being taken care of by the Empress Dowager Xu, he had nothing to worry about.Coincidentally, he also wanted to know who was behind the scenes and why he attacked Baoluo, so he simply put all his energy into investigating the matter.

The driver who caused the accident had already been detained. He drank a lot of alcohol when the incident happened.After he was woken up by several basins of cold water, he kept begging for mercy as if he didn't remember what he had done at all.Lan Chengyu interrogated him three times together with Dali Temple Minister and Minister of the Ministry of Justice, but he didn't get any useful information.

Everything looked like an accident.

Of course, neither Lan Chengyu nor Emperor Yongjia would believe that this was an accident.

Lan Chengyu decided to change direction, starting with the people who had been in contact with the driver recently, as well as the driver's network, to find out who the driver was.

After going back and forth, he found out about Princess Pingning's mother clan.It turned out that this coachman was actually Princess Pingning's own mother, and a servant of the current Princess Rong, whose identity was still held in the hands of Princess Rong's family.

"This matter involves the royal family, so it stands to reason that the clan's government order should also be involved." The Minister of Criminal Affairs stroked his beard: "However, the current clan's government order is the grandfather of Princess Pingning, Lao Rong. Prince, logically speaking, the old Prince Rong should avoid suspicion."

"Fortunately, there is a son-in-law here, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to easily intervene in this matter. It is better to ask the emperor for instructions on this matter, does the son-in-law think so?" Dali Temple Minister asked Lan Chengyu.

Lan Chengyu also knew that the two of them had been struggling in the officialdom for a long time, and they were all like human beings.If Emperor Yongjia didn't give them a definite answer, they would never investigate it without authorization.Therefore, Lan Chengyu had no choice but to say: "What the two adults said is reasonable, we should consult the emperor for instructions on this matter before making a decision."

Anyway, once Emperor Yongjia learned that this matter was related to Princess Pingning, according to his temperament, he would definitely not let the old Prince Rong intervene in this matter.

Sure enough, after hearing the news, Emperor Yongjia said indifferently: "Since this matter is related to Pingning, the clan's government order should avoid suspicion. The son-in-law's status is respected. In this case, the clan's government order should bear the responsibility. Leave it to the son-in-law."

"Yes. The ministers will definitely do their best to assist the son-in-law and try to solve the case as soon as possible." Dali Temple Minister and the Minister of the Ministry of Justice expressed their opinions in a hurry.

Originally, Lan Chengyu was at most a participant and supervisor in the trial of the case, not the main judge.What Emperor Yongjia said made Lan Chengyu one of the main judges, and his right to speak in the case naturally became more important.

After the Minister of Dali Temple and the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice retired, Emperor Yongjia left Lan Chengyu alone: ​​"I was still puzzled at first, the old Prince Rong has always been a calm and prudent person, how could he suddenly use the means of some housewives to sow discord? , to persecute the younger sister. Now, knowing that it is Ping Ning who wants to harm the younger sister, everything becomes easy to deduce."

Lan Chengyu frowned and said: "I don't understand, if these things are all done by Princess Pingning, why did Princess Pingning do this? Baoluo and Princess Pingning don't have any deep hatred, or even What kind of conflict of interest, harming Baoluo, can she get some benefits?"

"The late Emperor once wanted to marry you and Ping Ning, but in the end, you married Bao Luo. Now, Ping Ning is disfigured, and life is very unsatisfactory. Do you think she will resent you and Bao Luo?" As As a person who often dealt with the royal family, Emperor Yongjia knew the thoughts of Princess Pingning very well.

"Ping Ning, she has never been a broad-minded person. However, she was not so extreme in the past. Since she was disfigured, she has become more and more reluctant to see others living better than her. The happiness of others will only hurt her. Eyes." A sharp light flashed in Emperor Yongjia's eyes: "If this matter is really done by Ping Ning, then Ping Ning will not be allowed to stay."

Although Princess Pingning will come to today step by step, it can be said that she was forced out by the joint efforts of the fifth princess and the sixth princess. Although she is hateful, she is still a pitiful person.However, Emperor Yongjia's few warmth and affection have long been given to his younger sister, and there is no extra care and love for Princess Pingning.If Princess Pingning really threatened his sister's life, it was obvious how he would choose.

Although the final investigation results of this case have not yet come out, Emperor Yongjia and Lan Chengyu have already determined that this case must be inseparable from Princess Pingning.Next, what they have to do is to prove this point.

"By the way, tell old Prince Rong about this matter, he will know what he should do." There was a bit of chill in Emperor Yongjia's words.

Old Prince Rong was not a member of Emperor Yongjia. If their family had always lived in peace, Emperor Yongjia would not mind letting Old Prince Rong stay in his current position. Not a few years to stay.It's a pity that Prince Rong's mansion stabbed Lou Zi again and again. Emperor Yongjia's patience with Prince Rong's mansion has come to an end.

When the old Prince Rong received the message sent by Emperor Yongjia, his whole body seemed to be ten years old suddenly: "Old minister... I understand. The old minister has no way to manage the family, and he has no face. position. Later, the veteran will personally submit a form to resign from this position."

Everything was going on as Emperor Yongjia and Lan Chengyu expected, except for the progress of the trial.

Even though Lan Chengyu had gathered a lot of evidence that the driver who caused the accident had a close relationship with Princess Pingning, he still gritted his teeth and refused to reveal a single word.

Until one day, he suddenly said loudly: "Master, this slave has lived up to your promise."

Not long after that, Lan Chengyu and Emperor Yongjia got the news that the coachman committed suicide...
