MTL - Dressed As a Consort In Ancient Times-Chapter 29
The surrounding atmosphere is stagnant, and everyone has different expressions.
"Just now, who did I hear that my husband is going to be taken into custody?"
The noble and elegant princess was majestic, her thin lips were pursed lightly, and she was not angry, making everyone present subconsciously look at Uncle Anyang.
Jiang Libai then looked over, and twitched the corner of her mouth: "Who is this Gongdao? It turns out to be the son of Uncle Anyang."
Zhou Ran clenched his fists, his eyes fell on Princess Seven, and he didn't look away for a moment, "Princess, this is the 'good son-in-law' you picked yourself! He had an affair with others, and even murdered his younger brother!"
Jiang Libai sneered, walked up to Gu Yun, glanced up and down, and after confirming that she had not received any punishment, she said to Jing Zhaoyin who had already walked down: "Just based on the one-sided words of these people found by Uncle Anyang, it doesn't seem to be true. Can't it prove that my husband murdered Uncle Anyang?"
Zheng Zheng rubbed his hands and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes! It really can't be proved directly!"
"Since you can't prove it, why don't you put my husband back?"
Jiang Libai glanced at it lightly, which immediately made Zheng Zheng tighten his head.
He glanced obsequiously at Uncle Anyang's son at the side: "This...Princess Jianing has spoken, and the testimony of these people really needs to be verified, why don't we come here today?"
At this time, Zhou Ran did not insist on imprisoning Gu Yun anymore.
He took two steps in front of Jiang Libai, with a bit of displeasure on his face, but he endured it again. Immediately, he didn't know what to think of, and he said with a half-smile: "Since the princess insists, then give the princess some face."
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Jiang Libai's ear, feeling very emotional: "Princess, your eyesight is really not very good. Picking and picking, you picked such a little boy who has an affair with others..."
Afraid of being attacked by him, Jiang Libai took two steps back: "My son-in-law will not allow you to slander, if you continue to publicize things without evidence, I will definitely report to the emperor and punish you for contempt of the royal family!"
Gu Yun was afraid that she would not be able to stand firmly, so he stretched out his hand behind her to support her shoulder.
After Zhou Ran finished speaking, he stood up straight, his eyes fell on Gu Yun's hand that was supporting Jiang Libai, and he said coldly: "It seems that the princess really has a deep affection for her! I just don't know, wait for you Knowing the truth, will you still defend her like this!"
Jiang Libai didn't bother to talk to him anymore, after a soft snort, she turned to hold Gu Yun's arm sideways, "It's getting late, and I'm tired, let's go home~"
Gu Yun looked down at his arm, smiled happily and said, "Okay."
The two ignored the commotion behind them, and walked out of Jingzhao Mansion hand in hand.
It was getting late outside, the biting cold wind was blowing, and the vast white snow was flying all over the sky.
Gu Yun lifted the cloak and hugged Jiang Libai into her arms: "It's windy, the princess is wearing thin clothes, be careful of the cold."
The warmth hit my heart and gradually spread throughout my body. Jiang Libai let out a low "oh", but didn't resist.
After getting into the carriage, Jiang Libai nestled in Gu Yun's arms, thinking about what happened today.
"Although Zhou Ran didn't bite you anymore, I always feel that this matter is not over yet." She looked at Gu Yun thoughtfully, "What happened today seems to be a test."
But what to test, she couldn't figure it out.
Gu Yun didn't take this matter seriously, and she couldn't stop someone who wanted to die. In short, when the soldiers came to cover up the water and the earth, it would be best if those people came at her together, and she happened to clean up all of them.
So as not to disgust her and the seventh princess from time to time.
She has to spend time cultivating a relationship with the seventh princess, and doesn't have that much time to pay attention to these people.
Forget about the matter just now, Gu Yun is now full of the Seventh Princess who is obediently nestled in her arms.
The girl raised her pink face, and her appearance was reflected in her wet eyes, which made her feel even more joyful.
"Princess don't have to worry, no matter how many tricks they have, it won't affect us."
With a faint fragrance, Jiang Libai came back to his senses, only to realize that he hadn't pushed Gu Yun away just now.
But at this moment, she was covered by Gu Yun's thick cloak,
Already used to this kind of warmth, she didn't want to quit...
So after a slight blush appeared on her face, she gritted her teeth and put her arms around Gu Yun's waist.
Anyway, they are all women, so it should be normal for them to hug each other for warmth, right?
She suppressed the secret joy in her heart, turned her head away: "Who is 'us' with you? Don't get involved with me."
Probably the shyness of the daughter's family could no longer be concealed, it was all written on her face. Gu Yun's eyes were bright, and there was a hint of ridicule in his voice: "Since the princess doesn't want to have anything to do with me, why are you hugging me so tightly?"
The last sentence was tactful and low-pitched, Jiang Libai always felt numb and numb when hearing it, and his heart fluttered accordingly.
She was a little annoyed, and grabbed Gu Yun's waist with her small hands wrapped in the cloak, "You hugged me first, I just didn't want you to lose your position, so I didn't push you away, don't push your nose Find fault with your face!"
Through the robe, the soft flesh around Gu Yun's waist was twisted up a little, and it didn't feel pain, but it was itchy like being scratched by a kitten's paw.
She grabbed Seventh Princess's troublesome little hand and gently kneaded it, "Look, you are still touching me now."
Jiang Libai: "..." Now are you sure it wasn't her who was touching her? !
Slapping Gu Yun's hand away, she gave her a sideways glance: "It's business! Don't change the subject."
"After going back later, I will ask Mu Paddle to inquire about it. Uncle Anyang's mansion testifies against you so much, so I don't think it will be so easy to let go. If we can find out why they framed you and what plans they have in the future, then we will be able to deal with it gone."
"Okay, the princess arranges it." Gu Yun didn't pay attention to those people, but the seventh princess thought of her so much, so of course she would not refuse.
…
That night, Jiang Libai, who returned to the Princess Mansion, sent Mu Paddle and his subordinates to inquire about the news, and casually asked Chunxi to explain the incident to her mother and concubine in detail, emphasizing that Gu Yun had nothing to do with the woman. Nothing to do with this matter.
However, before the matter was clarified, news came that the young master of Uncle Anyang's mansion had passed away, and then Uncle Anyang, who was heartbroken, handed over the note overnight, asking to see Emperor Yu.
Emperor Yu already knew what happened from Concubine Yuan Gui, and also knew about his Xiaoqi's protection of Gu Yun.
However, although Uncle Anyang is only a false nobleman and has no real position, his ancestors were heroes who opened up the territory of Yu Kingdom, so the Emperor Yu had to give him face.
After opening the palace gate, Emperor Yu met Uncle Anyang in Qianming Hall.
The surrounding area is empty and the candles are brightly lit.
Uncle Anyang was in his forties, but now he couldn't help crying because of the death of his youngest son.
With snot and tears, it looks really pitiful.
But Yuhuang's eyes flashed a cold light, but his face was kindly: "Zhou Aiqing, if you have something to say, just say it. In such a cold day, don't keep kneeling on the ground."
Uncle Anyang wiped away his tears, shook his body, and slowly stood up: "Your Majesty, you must be the master of your subject!"
"What's the matter?" Emperor Yu just didn't know what happened outside the palace this afternoon.
Uncle Anyang gritted his teeth, and told about his youngest son being murdered by the Seventh Princess Consort, and pointed out that Jing Zhaoyin was suspected of covering the Seventh Consort.
Yuhuang listened to him quietly, and first expressed his concern for him: "I was also very surprised to hear the bad news. The deceased has passed away, so you should take care of yourself."
Then the topic changed: "However... Jing Zhaoyin just wrote the booklet and explained the matter clearly. The testimony of those who testified against Gu Yun is not credible!"
Uncle Anyang shook his head, "Your majesty doesn't know something, but I actually have other evidence to prove that it was the seventh son-in-law who murdered my youngest son, but..."
Hearing this, Emperor Yu's expression turned cold, and then he said lightly: "Why didn't you say it when you were in Jingzhao Mansion?"
"After all, this matter concerns Princess Jianing. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the eldest son of the minister did not want to embarrass Princess Seven, so he did not point out other evidence."
…
The Qianming Hall was brightly lit, until the sky gradually brightened, and there was no sound inside.
As soon as Uncle Anyang walked out of the palace, the palace's decree came down
up.
Princess Jianing's son-in-law may be related to the death of Uncle Anyang's son, so Emperor Yu ordered the Ministry of Criminal Justice to handle this matter, and it must be clearly and clearly investigated.
After receiving the decree, Li Chongxian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, sent someone to Princess Jianing's mansion to invite Gu Yun, and then sent other people to Anyang Bo's mansion to bring witnesses.
It is still snowing heavily today, and the sky is not yet bright.
Gu Yun couldn't resist the seventh princess, so he had no choice but to put on a cloak for her, wrapped her tightly, and then took her hand to the Ministry of Punishment.
As soon as he arrived at the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Li Chong asked someone to bring Princess Jianing a comfortable chair and let her sit down.
Jiang Libai saw that the chair was spacious enough for one person to sit, so she beckoned to Gu Yun: "Husband, come here and sit with me."
Gu Yun ignored the scrutinizing eyes of others, and walked up to Princess Seven and sat down.
Seeing that she didn't disobey him, Jiang Libai was satisfied.
She looked at Li Chongxian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment: "Since the father has entrusted this matter to you, then you should interrogate carefully and see how these people want to frame my son-in-law."
Li Chong heard the maintenance in her tone first, "Yes, I know."
As the people from Anyang Bofu came to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, the interrogation officially began.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that when the people from Uncle Anyang's mansion came, they left a jaw-dropping piece of news.
"... Yunyan has evidence to prove that what she said is true, and she is not lying."
Uncle Anyang winked at Yunyan who was kneeling on the ground.
The delicate woman began to cry and whimpered: "I think everyone knows what happened to the little girl in the suburbs of Beijing and cousin Yan a few days ago...but this was planned by the Seventh Son-in-law. The medicine made the little girl sleep with Cousin Yan..."
Jiang Libai didn't want to hear what this woman said, so she said coldly: "What about your so-called evidence? You said that you and my son-in-law have known each other for a long time, what evidence do you have to prove it? My palace married the son-in-law, etc. For a long time, I know that the son-in-law is not the kind of person you said she would change her mind!"
Gu Yun didn't expect the Seventh Princess to defend her so much, she felt warm in her heart, and quietly held her hand.
"The little girl has evidence..." Yun Yan's body was almost like a sieve, but she could only say it with her eyes closed: "Because... the little girl already has a child of the seventh son-in-law in her womb!"
