"No, thank you." Lou Xinyue was cold and kept people at a distance, but she was still polite.

Qin Yao looked at Guan Ning.

Guan Ning said, "Put it down. If she doesn't eat, I will. I'm just hungry."

"Remember to eat more later. You almost vomited all over me last night. There is porridge in it to warm your stomach. I will clean up after you finish eating." Qin Yao spoke softly, also for Lou Xinyue to hear, declaring her sovereignty.

Guan Ning grinned: "Okay, don't worry."

Qin Yao glanced at Lou Xinyue and said, "Then you guys chat. I'm leaving first."

Lou Xinyue nodded.

Guan Ning gently touched Qin Yao's slender hand. She glared at him and then left.

"How can a man like you find such a beautiful wife?" Lou Xinyue suddenly looked at him with a hint of contempt.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean? You are making a personal attack. This prince is suave, handsome, virtuous, and well-rounded. Why can't I find someone?" Guan Ning was unhappy.

Lou Xinyue didn't say anything, but just smiled contemptuously in response.

"Damn it, what are you looking at?"

"..."

Soon after, Guan Ning devoured all the loving breakfast made by Qin Yao in no time.

The contents of the file were also completely revealed. In July of the 36th year of the Wu Dynasty, Wang Huanzhi, who was then the commander of Xuande Gate, rebelled with the King of Wu, but was betrayed and the rebellion failed.

During the subsequent investigation, the Ministry of Justice found a letter in the Prince of Wu's mansion, and this letter was the key to Chang Shoufang's imprisonment.

The letter was written by Chang Shoufang himself, which clearly stated that Chang Shoufang used his position to provide money and silver to King Wu's rebel army, and promised that after King Wu succeeded, he would help King Wu control the Ministry of Revenue and then control the entire Wu Dynasty's money and grain warehouse.

In return, after he came to power, King Wu would support Chang Shoufang to enter the cabinet and sit on the throne of Minister of Revenue.

In this way, the case was directly classified and Chang Shoufang became a thief who would be remembered forever. Even though he had a good reputation before, the evidence was overwhelming and there was almost no possibility of overturning the verdict.

Two years passed, and the reason he was not killed was because he was not the mastermind, and he had made many contributions before, so he was not executed. However, living in the Heavenly Prison may be more painful than death.

After reading it, Guan Ning felt a little headache. Things were more difficult than he had imagined, because the participants and those who knew about it were basically executed, and a long list of names were clearly written on the file.

Lou Xinyue was extremely angry, her deep and beautiful eyes filled with coldness, and her snow-white fingers clenched tightly: "Fake, all fake!"

boom!

She smashed the file and said in a cold voice, "Prince Wu is ambitious and evil. How could Lord Chang possibly associate with him?"

"There's no way that Lord Chang would do this!"

Facing her anger, Guan Ning appeared very calm, and after careful consideration, he hit the nail on the head.

"If we want to overturn the verdict, the key point is not King Wu. No one will believe you just because you say that Lord Chang is not a wolf-like and ambitious person. What's more, King Wu's people have turned into bones and there is no trace of them."

Although Lou Xinyue was angry, she also knew the truth: "Then what is the key?"

"Letter!" Guan Ning blurted out, his eyes shining brightly.

"This letter is irrefutable evidence, and it's the only evidence. If Lord Chang was framed, then this letter must be fake. As long as we disprove the authenticity of this letter, the lie will be exposed."

Lou Xinyue saw hope and asked again: "But many people and clues from that time are gone, how can we overturn it?"

"Find the person who forged it!" Guan Ning's eyes were sharp. "If I wanted to frame Lord Chang, I would first send someone to forge a letter and send it to the Prince of Wu's Mansion in advance. Then I would find him in full view of everyone. It would be a sure kill, the kind that cannot be overturned!"

Lou Xinyue's eyes trembled, and she made a very realistic deduction: "Who do you think forged the letter?"

From her words, she had already regarded Guan Ning as her brain and backbone.

Guan Ning narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are there any people who were with Lord Chang before who are still alive?"

Lou Xinyue shook her head, feeling somewhat discouraged: "They were all executed."
