"It has been identified this morning. The poisoned dagger belongs to Prince Zhe!" Princess Qinghuan was already certain that Mingzhe was the real murderer after being pointed out by Lu Sijiao and Lu Yunche. The investigation result that the dagger was indeed Mingzhe's made her even more convinced.

Now the words of the retired emperor only made her feel that this was just a grandfather protecting his grandson, so she stood up angrily and said: "Even if Lu Mingzhe is just a suspect, he has a place to go, instead of hiding in Yanming Mansion and continuing to be the Prince of Zhe!" The implication was that Mingzhe must be imprisoned in jail first!

The emperor closed his eyes and thought for a while, and finally made a decision to take Mingzhe to the prison for trial! The deceased was the princess's grandson, so there must be an explanation!

Mingzhe didn't say a word after he came back from Prince Yan's Mansion. Xinyan was worried like an ant on a hot pot! At this time, a group of imperial guards rushed into the Yanming Mansion and said they wanted to take Mingzhe away... Xinyan fell to the ground with weak legs. She couldn't believe that her son would kill his brother-in-law! Mingzhe was not an impulsive person! But... all the evidence was against his son!

Mingzhe still didn't say a word. When he saw the Imperial Guards coming, he walked in front of them, left the mansion, got into the carriage and left!

"Mingzhe...my child!" Xinyan ran out crying and grabbed the carriage to stop Mingzhe from leaving. She didn't know if she would be able to see her son again after this!

Mingzhe heard his mother crying, lifted the carriage curtain and finally spoke: "Mother...Mingzhe didn't kill anyone!"

"Mingzhe..." Xinyan looked at Mingzhe's extremely clear eyes. She knew that if her son said no, then it was no. So no matter how unfavorable the evidence was to her son, Xinyan would never let Mingzhe suffer an unjustifiable crime. There must be a hidden story behind this...

"Mingzhe, mother is waiting for you to come home!" Xinyan took back her hands that were holding the carriage and said to her son with a tearful smile!

Mingzhe couldn't bear to look at his mother any longer, so he lowered the curtain and the carriage slowly headed towards the prison!

King Jin's Mansion

"How is this possible? Brother Mingzhe wouldn't kill anyone!" After Tutu learned the news, he knelt in front of Prince Jin and asked him to save Mingzhe!

"Tutu! The matter has not been investigated yet. If Mingzhe is really not the murderer, he will be cleared of all charges!" Prince Jin had a hunch that something was fishy, ​​but he hadn't figured out what was behind it yet!

"What if, I mean what if Mingzhe really killed someone?" Tutu assumed the worst!

"Then we can only... pay with our lives! The grandson of the Guo family was poisoned to death by the emperor's grandson. This is no small matter!" Prince Jin frowned!

At this time, Yi Lei walked in from outside...

"Yilei, have you seen Brother Mingzhe?" Tutu asked as soon as he saw Yilei coming back.

"I was a step too late. When I went there, Brother Mingzhe had just been taken away by the Imperial Guards. Fourth Aunt said that Brother Mingzhe only said one sentence before he left, saying that he didn't kill anyone!" Yi Lei also found out that Mingzhe was in trouble early in the morning. When he rushed to Yanming Mansion, he couldn't see him anymore!

"He said he didn't kill anyone?" King Jin felt that this sentence fulfilled his thoughts. Mingzhe was framed. There was a conspiracy behind this...

"Yes! Father, Yi Lei wants to visit the prison, but I don't know if he can get in!" When Yi Lei was talking about business, he no longer addressed the King of Jin as Dad but Father!

"Mingzhe has just been sent in. According to the rules, you can't visit him. Ask the King of Qin to accompany you. He is in charge of the Ministry of Justice!"

"I'm going too!" Tutu couldn't wait to see Mingzhe immediately. The time she spent back in Chang'an was the happiest time in her life. Mingzhe often accompanied her, worried that she would not be able to adapt to Chang'an as she had lived in isolation for a long time. He taught her many things. Although they didn't say it explicitly, their feelings were already tacit, especially when King Liang came to propose marriage, Mingzhe's performance further demonstrated his intentions!

"It's not a good idea for you to go. Let Yilei go and talk to Mingzhe before making any decisions!" King Jin stopped Tutu!

"Yes, Tutu, you just stay here and relax. I'm here to find your fifth uncle!"

Prince Yan's Palace

Princess Qinghuan led people to bring her grandson's body back to the palace, and was now in the hall.

Prince Yan has been kneeling on the ground... No matter whether Mingzhe killed Guo Jun or not, the person died at the gate of Prince Yan's mansion, so he is responsible!

"A wild child is indeed a wild child. I thought he had become a decent human being after being a royal grandson for a few years. I never expected that under his gentle and elegant appearance, he hides such a vicious heart!" Princess Qinghuan is the aunt of Prince Yan. At this moment, she is losing her mind and pointing at Prince Yan and scolding Mingzhe!

"Aunt! I still don't believe Mingzhe would kill Guo Jun!" Even though the evidence was conclusive, Prince Yan still didn't believe it!

"So you're saying that I wronged your illegitimate son? What if he is the murderer?" Princess Qinghuan kept talking about Mingzhe's background!

"Then let my nephew and Mingzhe pay for the lives of my aunt's grandson together!" After saying this, Prince Yan stood up suddenly, calling him a wild child on the left and a illegitimate child on the right. This is an eternal pain in Prince Yan's heart, but today he has to be reminded of this again and again. Prince Yan also lost his mind and did this abnormal thing.

"You..." Princess Qinghuan was stunned by the behavior of Prince Yan. After all, Prince Yan was her own nephew. She was sad that her grandson died, but... killing someone means paying with one's life, why would she ask Prince Yan to pay with his life? Princess Qinghuan sat down. This whole morning she felt like she had experienced a war. Her grandson died at the gate of her mother's mansion, and the murderer was her mother's uncle! All the evidence pointed to Prince Zhe! She hadn't figured it out yet!

After all, she was a royal princess who had seen many storms, so she quickly calmed down: "Prince Yan, you are not protecting your son, but you don't believe Mingzhe killed people, so you want to pay compensation with your own life?"

"Yes!" King Yan didn't want to say anything more. If Mingzhe really killed him, it would be fine. But if there was any other hidden secret, he would never let go of the person who hurt his son!

"We are aunt and niece, and Guo Jun is already dead. Naturally, I don't want to wrongly accuse a good person. I will give you half a month. If the final answer is still Lu Mingzhe! Then I will deal with him personally!" This was already a concession made by Princess Qing Huan. If it weren't for the fact that Prince Yan had been loved by her since childhood, with Princess Qing Huan's prestige in the court and the power of the Guo family, she would not be able to overthrow a prince!

"Thank you, aunt!" King Yan also calmed down!

When Lu Yunche heard that the King of Yan wanted to live and die with Lu Mingzhe, his face was ferocious. He is the son, but I am not? If I were the murderer today, would you still do this? Lu Yunche's resentment towards his father increased!

Mingzhe, who had just entered the prison, soon met Yilei...

The emperor only had Mingzhe detained to give an explanation to Princess Qinghuan, and did not isolate Mingzhe from the outside world! When Yi Lei was stopped outside the prison, the King of Qin appeared behind Yi Lei in person, and the prison door was opened for Yi Lei to enter!

"Brother Mingzhe!" Yi Lei put his hands on the cell door where Mingzhe was imprisoned. The guard brought the key and opened the door!

"Yilei? How did you get in?" Mingzhe was surprised by Yilei's appearance!
