The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort

"The world is impermanent." Hongying sighed and looked at Jiang Dan: "But the fourth lady is very blessed, and she should be favored by the palace this time, and the glory of the Jiang family will be tied to Jiang Dan in the future On you. Maybe the eldest lady is not as good as the fourth lady in the future."

"Auntie, don't make fun of me." Jiang Dan lowered his head, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes quickly, and asked seemingly unintentionally: "But now that the eldest sister is in prison, what good way can father think of to save the eldest sister?" come out?"

"A way, can there be any good way." Hongying picked up the board in front of her and took a sip unhurriedly, before saying: "If such a big thing happens, if you are not careful, it will bring trouble to the family. Miss this time It's really a big mess. Your father is already so angry that he has discussed with your second brother for a long time but still can't come up with a solution. Now the concubine Shu in the palace is furious, and your majesty has also lost Princess Heyi. Doomed, even if your father intercedes, wouldn't it make things worse?"

Jiang Dan paused slightly with his fingers holding the pastry, and changed into a worried expression: "Then what does father mean, is to let go of it?"

"Master is also powerless." Hongying looked at her fingertips that had been painted with Kou Dan: "Missy is a member of the Jiang family, so she naturally knows when to make sacrifices, and she can't sacrifice the whole family for her alone." Put your life at risk."

In the imperial study room, the emperor looked at the young Taifu in front of him with a serious expression, "I don't know when Taifu Liu became so concerned about Princess Hong'an's affairs?"

"I'm doing my best. Besides, there are many doubts about this matter. You might as well wait a little longer. The people from the criminal department will investigate for a while, and the trial will convince the world." Liu Min is neither humble nor overbearing, this young man has never been a gangster Although the Jie faction is an upstart, it has made a lot of achievements in the court. It is the first time that it faces the emperor's questioning gaze, but it is still open-minded and calm.

With a "snap", a booklet fell heavily on Liu Min's body, and the emperor said with a sullen face, "I'm asking you, when did you become so concerned about Princess Hong'an's affairs?"

For a king of a country, the palace is full of eyes and ears, and it is inevitable to hear some rumors on weekdays. The emperor is already displeased with Liu Min at this moment. It's just that Liu Min still stood straight, didn't even change his face, and still said in a low voice: "It has nothing to do with selfishness."

Eunuch Li glanced at the person across from him. The young man was bright and gentle, but he had the stubbornness and aloofness of a literati in his bones. This person was originally cultivated by the emperor for the future of Dajin, but now he is gone. The emperor's Ni Lin also looked like he would not give up until he achieved his goal. Eunuch Li pondered in his heart, General Zhao had already visited in the afternoon, Empress Dowager Yide also spoke, although Xiao Shao did not speak, given his temperament, he would not stand idly by. Having said that, Princess Hong'an, the daughter of the Jiang family, is really not an ordinary person. It's just that what Liu Min said was probably adding fuel to the emperor's unhappy heart, and it was really not a good countermeasure.

The emperor stared at Liu Min coldly for a while, then suddenly slapped the table hard: "It has nothing to do with selfishness! Since all of you are interceding for Hong'an, what if I give you a few more days? Well, I'll see Look, what evidence can you come up with! Get out!"

Emperor Longyan was furious, Liu Min only saluted in a low voice and then retreated, Eunuch Li calmed down and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much, what Liu Taifu said is not unreasonable, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this matter, just be afraid Those who are interested will use it to make a fuss, and it would be better to allow a few more days."

"Do you think I'm confused?" The emperor looked at the papers on the table with a bit of hatred: "I just don't understand why both of them were poisoned by Jiang Ruan. Could it be that they are really witches?"

...

After Liu Min left the imperial study room, he left the palace, and went all the way to the prison where the Ministry of Criminal Affairs held the prisoners. The prison chief was taken aback when he saw him, and then got up in a hurry to greet him: "I don't know if the Grand Tutor is here, what's the matter? "

"I'm here to see someone." Liu Min frowned slightly. After several years in the officialdom, he was still not used to such flattering people. Even so, he still took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and handed it to the prison chief. inside.

The head of the prison was flattered to take it over, Xin Dao turned out that the cleanliness rumored in the court does not attract dust, and the Tai Tuo who claims to be clean is nothing more than that, and he still understands the work of the officialdom, so why should he put on a high-minded look? Show it to others. But even though he thought so in his heart, he still had to put on a very respectful look on his face, and said: "It's easy to talk about it, if you have anything to say, you can just talk to the young one directly, as long as it is convenient, the young one will definitely do your best." And for that." After finishing speaking, he asked: "Which one is Tai Tuo looking for?"

"Master Hong'an." Liu Min said.

Jiang Ruan is locked in the innermost part of the prison, which is where the death row inmates are held. Although the sentence has not yet been decided, almost everyone believes that she is doomed this time, killing a princess of a country, there is no reason for her to escape unscathed. But because of Xiao Shao or Zhao Guang's management, at least her life in prison was smooth, and the guards in these prisons didn't make things difficult for her too much.

When Liu Min walked to the innermost part, she immediately saw Jiang Ruan sitting on the ground leaning against the wall, she didn't know what she was thinking, she was in a daze, but she didn't see panic. He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and then laughed at himself. He knew that she was not an ordinary woman, and the scene of an ordinary woman being imprisoned in a prison and crying loudly would not have happened to her.

"Princess." He called out.

Jiang Ruan came back to his senses, looked up and saw him, a flash of astonishment flashed in his eyes, then smiled and said: "Teacher Liu."

Liu Min squatted down in front of the cell, and looked at her through the fence. Looking around the cell, although the conditions are simple but not harsh, it is completely different from what I saw in other cells along the way. Jiang Ruan's clothes were intact and clean, and she didn't suffer any pain, it must be that someone took care of these things for her.

"Teacher Liu is here, what's the matter?" Jiang Ruan asked when he saw that he was just looking inside without saying a word.

Liu Min glanced at her: "I... come to see you." After a pause, he said, "Are you okay?"

The affection in the young man's eyes was flowing, even though he tried his best to conceal it, he still inadvertently leaked three points. Jiang Ruan himself is good at observing words, frowned slightly, and then smiled: "I'm fine, please bother the master to worry about it." .”

She was always so polite, yet she brought the alienation of being thousands of miles away, Liu Min felt a little astringent, thinking of what happened today, she said seriously: "I believe you, Princess Heyi was not killed by you."

Liu Min felt that although Jiang Ruan looked like a cold person, he was very kind in his heart, otherwise he would not have rescued the thirteenth prince when he saw Princess Heyi bullying him.

"Of course I didn't kill her," Jiang Ruan looked at her: "I don't have to kill her."
