The mistress is mighty, bringing 88 dowries to flatten the Marquis's mansion
Chapter 48 He is innocent
Ruan Shan suddenly paused, and Bai couldn't help but tilt her head and asked anxiously, "What's the matter?"
"This must have been deliberately framed by someone."
Bai remained silent and glared at him unhappily.
"Aren't you talking nonsense? We all know what Yuchun looks like. How could such a smart person do such a stupid thing? The most urgent thing now is to clear his name and get evidence!"
Ruan Shan touched his nose and said, "Madam, please don't worry. I know that the most urgent thing is to get evidence, but the problem is that we don't have any way, unless..."
He paused again, and Bai slammed the table in anger.
"If you keep keeping me in suspense, you won't have to worry about this matter anymore!"
Ruan Shan coughed lightly: "Madam, do you want to rescue Xie Yuchun? Or solve this matter completely?"
Bai narrowed her eyes slightly: "It seems that you already have an idea?"
Ruan Shan laughed and held Bai's hand: "I am indeed not as good as you in business, but I know all the things about the three religions and nine classes. Madam, just wait."
Time went to the next day. As soon as Ruan Shuyan got up, she heard a noise outside.
She rubbed her swollen and painful brows and asked, "Chun Tao, what happened outside?"
Chun Tao came in and said, "There is a group of beggars outside the palace, and they are fighting with the imperial guards at the gate."
Ruan Shuyan was puzzled: "Do you know why those beggars came?"
"Not sure. The guards at the door won't let anyone get close."
It turned out to be the case.
Ruan Shuyan suppressed her thoughts and no longer paid attention to what was happening outside.
Unexpectedly, as it approached noon, the noise at the door did not stop, which made Ruan Shuyan want to go and take a look.
But as soon as he reached the gate of the courtyard, he was blocked by Chen Yuntang.
"Are you going to the gate of the mansion, sister-in-law?"
Chen Yuntang asked curiously with a faint smile on his face, and a feeling of pity.
Ruan Shuyan nodded: "Do you want to go with me?"
She knew that Chen Yuntang came here for a purpose, but she would not give Chen Yuntang a chance to speak.
Chen Yuntang's eyes flashed: "I heard that the imperial guards drove away many people who were trying to get information. Even if we go over there, I'm afraid we won't be able to get close, right?"
Ruan Shuyan smiled faintly: "If you don't go and take a look, how can you know that you must not get close?"
Hearing this, Chen Yuntang fell silent.
Ruan Shuyan didn't care and left with Chuntao. When they reached the door, they found that those so-called beggars were actually from North City.
Looking at Wen Sheng in the crowd, Ruan Shuyan frowned unconsciously. Why didn't Chuntao mention this in the morning?
Even if the imperial guards didn't let them get close, Chuntao should be able to see them.
At this moment, the beggars outside suddenly rioted, and caught them off guard, they broke through the encirclement of the imperial guards.
"Go in and grab something!"
"Grab it, grab it!"
A group of people dressed as beggars started shouting and soon came to Ruan Shuyan.
Before she could react, something suddenly appeared in her hand.
The next moment, the beggar who rushed in was surrounded by the imperial guards and was driven out in a short moment.
"Are these beggars crazy? How dare they go against the imperial guards? And what good will it do them to break into the Xie family?"
The voice coming from behind made Ruan Shuyan turn her head slightly, and she found that Chen Yuntang had come behind her without her knowing.
When their eyes met, Ruan Shuyan said calmly, "Let's not talk about whether it's good or not, I didn't see them going against the Imperial Guards."
At this point, Ruan Shuyan's expression suddenly darkened: "When the Qingfeng Tower incident happened, these imperial guards were also so inactive."
Chen Yuntang's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling of uneasiness suddenly flashed through his mind: "Sister-in-law, you..."
Before she could finish, Ruan Shuyan walked past her.
That afternoon, the news that a group of beggars broke through the encirclement of the imperial guards and broke into the Xie family spread.
For a time, the entire capital was filled with discussions.
As they talked, they talked about Qingfeng Tower.
"Are those imperial guards too useless? How come they can't protect anything?"
After these words were spoken, everyone in the capital fell silent.
The same silence also occurred in the imperial study.
The emperor tapped lightly on the imperial desk, and his obscure eyes swept over several ministers.
"It can be considered an accident if it happens once, but now it has happened for the second time. It seems that the imperial guards need to be reorganized. What do you think?"
The ministers held their breath and dared not answer at all.
The emperor sneered: "Okay, I won't embarrass you about the Imperial Guards, but the matter of Qingfeng Tower has not yet come to a conclusion. Minister of Justice, what do you think?"
The Minister of Justice's heart skipped a beat, and he walked out with his head held high: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, this is..."
"boom!"
The emperor smashed the paperweight at hand and looked at the Minister of Justice with murderous eyes.
"I said you were stupid, so you really became stupid? You can't see the problem with such obvious evidence. What's the point of me asking you to wait?"
The Minister of Justice knelt down and said, "What if the evidence is correct? Your Majesty, your trust in Mr. Xie is too much."
The words "too much" plunged the imperial study into dead silence.
The emperor stared at the Minister of Justice and laughed in anger: "Do you think this is my fault?"
"I dare not, I am just telling the truth."
The Minister of Justice was desperate and kowtowed heavily: "Your Majesty, please give justice to those who died in Qingfeng Tower!"
The emperor's expression kept changing. At this moment, the door of the imperial study was pushed open and the Thirteenth Princess Nalan Jinxiu rushed in.
"Master Xie would never do anything that takes human life lightly. Those so-called evidences are problematic. Father, please give Master Xie a clear name and don't disappoint a loyal minister."
She knelt on the ground with her forehead against the ground, as if she would not get up unless the emperor agreed.
The Minister of Justice was anxious: "Princess, what basis do you have to say that Xie Yuchun is innocent? If he has no problem, why does all the evidence point to him?"
Nalan Jinxiu raised her head and glared at the Minister of Justice fiercely.
"This is a frame-up! Can't the Minister see it? If this is true, I have to doubt how you got your position as the Minister of Justice!"
The Minister of Justice choked up: "The princess is interested in Lord Xie, so she naturally prefers Lord Xie, but how can you doubt me for this? I am loyal to the emperor and I love the people like my own children, yes..."
Nalan Jinxiu interrupted him impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense. I want to ask you, what good did Xie Yuchun get out of the Qingfeng Tower incident?"
Seeing that the Minister of Justice was speechless, Nalan Jinxiu showed a mocking expression on his face.
"Look, you also know that this matter will not benefit him, but you still insist that Xie Yuchun is guilty. Your Excellency, you have selfish motives. You are unworthy of being an official appointed by the court."
Having said this, the emperor coughed lightly and asked Nalan Jinxiu to leave.
"I know the situation well. Don't mess around here. Leave now."
Nalan Jinxiu was unwilling to accept it, and before leaving, she said, "Xie Yuchun is innocent."
