I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 15: Public opinion reverses.

The carriage stopped at this time, and the driver's voice sounded outside, "Madam, the two young ladies have arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion."

Lin Yiyi spread her hands and said: "It seems that the main show today can't be performed. I won't accompany you anymore. You can go in by yourselves." After that, she jumped off the carriage.

Lin Wanwan cried and looked at Zeng Qin, "Mom, Lin Yiyi is too much."

Zeng Qin's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, and she said as if she had made up her mind: "Don't worry, mother will definitely get rid of her for you."

After Lin Yiyi came down from the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she walked directly towards the direction of the Imperial Prison. Lu Cui followed behind her. Seeing her young lady lingering at the gate of the Imperial Prison for a long time, she said, "Young lady, do you want to go in and see Miss Jiang?"

Lin Yiyi looked at Lu Cui, "Do you have a solution?"

Lu Cui nodded.

"Tell me?" Lin Yiyi looked at Lu Cui with some excitement.

Lu Cui whispered, "As long as we give some silver to the people guarding the door, as long as the criminal is not a repeat offender, they will basically turn a blind eye."

"Really?"

Lu Cui nodded and said, "I saw that the people from the Ministry of Justice were like this last time."

Lin Yiyi began to think thoughtfully. She had heard that once inside the imperial prison, no one could visit. But she heard that Pei Zhijin was not in the Northern Pacification Office today, so she thought of trying her luck.

Thinking of this, he looked at Lu Cui and said, "Wait for me at the door. I'll go and try."

"Let the servant go."

"It's okay. I can do it." Lin Yiyi rejected Lu Cui, turned around and walked towards the imperial prison.

"The imperial prison is a restricted area. No outsiders are allowed to approach!" The guard standing at the door said sternly to Lin Yiyi.

Lin Yiyi was frightened by the sound and stopped in her tracks. Although she was very nervous, she still smiled and said, "Two brothers, this is a little gift from me. Please be kind and let me go in to see Miss Jiang."

The guard frowned, "Are you here to see Miss Jiang?"

"That's right." Lin Yiyi nodded with a smile.

The two guards looked at each other, then weighed the silver that Lin Yiyi handed over, and said in a gentle tone: "You can't stay too long."

"Thank you, brothers. I'll be out soon."

As soon as the gate of the imperial prison opened, Lin Yiyi hurried in. When Jiang Xue saw Lin Yiyi coming, she asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Lin Yiyi looked at Jiang Xue, whose hair was a little messy, with tears in her eyes, and said in a choked voice: "You have suffered, Xue'er."

"I'm fine, how are you doing?"

"I'm doing fine. How about you?"

Jiang Xue told Lin Yiyi everything she had guessed in the past few days.

Lin Yiyi was a little surprised after hearing this. She looked at Jiang Xue with her almond-shaped eyes in surprise and said, "You said that the original Jiang Xue is still hidden in your body?"

"Yes." Jiang Xue nodded and said, "Didn't you say before that I was picking on you and kept pestering the young marquis? Don't you know me?"

Lin Yiyi nodded, "Then was it the original Jiang Xue a few days ago?"

"Yes."

"Oh my god, this is too unbelievable, one body with two souls? Maybe the woman's son was really killed by the original Jiang Xue." Lin Yiyi said this with a worried look on her face, grabbing Jiang Xue's hand and said, "Xue'er, how are you going to get out of this?"

Jiang Xue's bright eyes turned, and then she said, "It's not necessarily Jiang Xue who did this. You have to do me a favor."

"You said."

Jiang Xue asked Lin Yiyi to come closer and said in a voice that both of them could hear: "Write a letter to King Cheng and write my name on it."

Lin Yiyi nodded and said, "What's the content?"

“You don’t have to write anything, just put a blank piece of paper inside.”

"Is this... possible?"

Jiang Xue raised the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "Of course it will work."

After Lin Yiyi came out of the imperial prison, she took Lu Cui directly to Baoyue Tower. She used the excuse of having a meal to ask the waiter to deliver the letter to Prince Cheng's Mansion.

When Li Lingxuan received the letter, he looked at the piece of white paper in his hand, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Mu Qi said from the side: "Your Majesty, what does Miss Jiang mean by this?"

Li Lingxuan's eyes moved slightly, and he casually placed the white paper on the table, and said with a smile: "Humph, she is trying to trick me. If something happens to her, I will know nothing."

"She is threatening the prince?"

"No." Li Lingxuan shook his head and said, "She is right. If she dies, there are some secrets that I will never know."

Mu Qi frowned, wondering if there was anything else that the prince didn't know.

Li Lingxuan tapped the tabletop with his slender fingers, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Thinking of Jiang Xue, he blurted out three words, "Interesting."

Before, Jiang Xue always acted shy when she saw him, and always had to do something to attract his attention. She always looked stupid and foolish. If she wasn't the disciple of the White-Robed Immortal, Li Lingxuan would not have saved her.

But the last time Jiang Xue looked at him in Baoyue Tower, the way she looked at him seemed very unfamiliar with him, and there was even a hint of fear in her eyes. Now she gave him such a blank sheet of paper and asked him to save her. He was really smart. Was he pretending before?

Mu Qi said, "Then Your Majesty, should we save her?"

Li Lingxuan's thin lips slowly uttered a word, "Save."

"If the prince rescues Miss Jiang, then the emperor..."

"Humph, the Queen Mother can frame me, but can't I?" Li Lingxuan raised the corners of his mouth wickedly, and continued: "Cui Yu, that tactless guy, followed the Queen Mother, so let's make good use of him and turn the tables on the Queen Mother."

"But Cui Yu is already in the hands of the Jinyiwei."

"No problem." Li Lingxuan stood up, his tall figure covering the entire tabletop, and said in a rather cruel voice, "Just spread the rumors."

Mu Qi immediately understood, bowed and said: "Yes, I know what to do." Then he walked out.

In addition, Pei Zhijin had been sending people to follow Lin Yiyi. When he learned that Lin Yiyi had sent someone to deliver a letter to Prince Cheng's mansion, Wen Yu hurriedly said, "Sir, it seems that this Miss Jiang is really related to Prince Cheng."

Pei Zhijin glanced at Wen Yu, continued to play with the teacup in his hand, and said lightly: "Keep staring."

"Yes."

After the secret guard left, Wen Yu said in confusion: "Why don't you arrest Miss Lin and interrogate her? Isn't everything known?"

Pei Zhijin raised his eyes to look at Wen Yu. Even without saying anything, one could tell from his eyes that he wanted to scold Wen Yu. Wen Chuan said, "Are you stupid? Miss Lin is from Prime Minister Lin's residence. How can you arrest her without any evidence?"

Wen Yu finally understood and said "Oh" in dissatisfaction.

Pei Zhijin shook his head and said nothing as he continued to play with the teacup in his hand.

Li Lingxuan acted quickly. In less than two hours, public opinion in the capital was on Cui Yu's side. Even the Empress Dowager began to talk about him. Some said that the Empress Dowager had been in charge of government affairs for too long and the Emperor was like a puppet, unable to make decisions on everything. That was why the disaster relief money was robbed and Anren County was flooded. It was God's way of warning the Empress Dowager.

If the Queen Mother does not let go, Anren County will not have peace, and even the entire Chili Kingdom will suffer.
