Mu Yunjin nodded, and sighed softly, "That's right, this matter was instigated by Lin Mengwei."

After finishing speaking, he added, "However, the instigation is the instigation, Mu Ai still did this on the brain, and her crime cannot be shirked, but now, it is time to investigate carefully, who is responsible for this matter?" Shake it out."

"After you say that, I'm beginning to suspect this Lin Mengwei." An Guoshi raised his eyebrows, his words revealing a bit of teasing.

"But what good will it do her if she does this?" Yun Lianqing frowned, a little confused about this matter.

An Guoshi smiled, "Sometimes women will hold grudges for a long time because of things as small as fingernails. I have seen that Mu Qianjin a few times, she is a spoiled woman, maybe I don't know where she is on weekdays. You made Lin Mengwei unhappy, so you must hold a grudge."

"So, she ordered Mu Ai to assassinate the crown prince, and then deliberately exposed the matter to get rid of Mu Ai?" Yun Lianqing followed An Guoshi's words.

"That's right, there is one more thing..." An Guoshi stretched out a finger, "Lin Mengwei's father, Lin Zhiyang is the Minister of Nanting Kingdom, he is honest and honest, and the monarch has praised him many times in front of me."

"What do you think, if Prime Minister Mu is overthrown, who is most likely to be promoted to prime minister?"

As soon as An Guoshi's words came out, Yun Lianqing felt that the whole thing was clear, and said with a sigh, "If our guesses are true, then this Lin Mengwei is really an extraordinary woman."

"Well, this time it was because Yun Jin overheard their conversation that she led Lin Mengwei out. Otherwise, she would deny it, and her plan would have succeeded." Master An thought about it, Helplessly shook his head.

Listening to An Guoshi's analysis, Mu Yunjin also thought inwardly.

This Lin Mengwei looked respectful and docile in front of Mu Ai yesterday, but she didn't expect to bite Mu Ai back so soon and implicate the Mu family, which is really amazing.

When Chu Li came, he had been quietly listening to the words of the three of them. Seeing that everything was clear now, he looked sideways at Yun Lianqing, "You want to protect the Mu family?"

"Well, I didn't intend to pursue this matter at first, but now that Mu Ai has pleaded guilty, if Mu Ai is dealt with and the Mu family is not dealt with, I'm afraid there will be rifts with Mu Xiang in the future. If the Mu family is also dealt with, I'm afraid that this Nanting Kingdom will lose a worthy official from then on." Yun Lianqing was a little embarrassed.

"This king has a way." Chu Li opened his mouth slightly, his tone calm and breezy.

Hearing what Chu Li said, Yun Lian rolled his eyes with joy, "What can I do?"

"Turn big things into small ones, turn black and white."

...

An hour later, in Yun Guangyao's study.

After Yun Guangyao woke up from a nap, he heard someone report that the case in the morning had taken shape and the real culprit had been found out. Yun Lianqing invited him to the study.

At this moment, he was sitting in the study, with a row of people standing in front of him, and a few people were also kneeling.

Standing were Chu Li, Mu Yunjin, Yun Lianqing, An Guoshi, Qiqi, Prime Minister Mu and Lin Shangshu.

Kneeling were Mu Ai and Lin Mengwei.

After scanning around the people, Yun Guangyao's eyes showed some deep meaning, he looked at the few people standing, and waved his finger to the empty chair beside him, "Sit all of you."

After they sat down, Yun Guangyao glanced at Mu Ai and Lin Mengwei who were kneeling on the ground.

Immediately, he looked at Yun Lianqing, "What do you want to say when you find someone here?"

"Report to father..." Yun Lianqing stood up, walked to the center, and looked at Yun Guangyao, "I just met the emperor's wife, and the emperor's wife told my minister something."

"What's the matter?" Yun Guangyao looked at Yun Lianqing, and then at Mu Yunjin.

Seeing this, Mu Yunjin also stood up, walked to the center, and said slowly, "Yesterday at noon, Qiqi and I were eating at the Yunlou restaurant in the market, and we happened to meet Miss Mu and Miss Lin eating together. During the period, I happened to hear something..."

Then, Mu Yunjin told Yun Guangyao everything he heard in the restaurant.

The more Yun Guangyao listened, the darker his face became.

This statement is consistent with what Mu Ai said in the morning, but at that time the daughter of the Lin family strongly denied it, but now that Mu Yunjin has said so, it is naturally true.

After seeing Mu Yunjin just now, Lin Mengwei started to panic, because she had seen Mu Yunjin in the restaurant yesterday, when she was joking with the woman next to her, her thoughts were not on her and Mu Ai Here, so she didn't worry about it at all.

Unexpectedly, she actually heard it all...

Shangshu Lin Zhiyang stood up quickly after listening to Mu Yunjin's words, knelt down on the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "Master Mingjian, this old minister knows Mengwei best. It is impossible for her to be well-behaved and sensible on weekdays." The one who encouraged Miss Mu to do such a thing."

"Master Lin, do you mean that I deliberately framed him?" Mu Yunjin became angry when she heard this.

"No, no, Lin doesn't dare, but Lin's own daughter knows best that she would never do such a thing, let alone..."

As Lin Zhiyang spoke, he paused for a moment, glanced at Prime Minister Mu, and said, "Besides, the young girl has never intended to marry into the prince's mansion, and she has no motive to encourage Miss Mu at all."

"You are talking nonsense! Lin Mengwei was the one who encouraged me! Princess Ning has testified for me, so don't try to deny it!" Mu Ai said angrily.

This incident already made her feel very bad, but now Lin Mengwei is still here pretending to be innocent, and she becomes even more angry. She is the one who bought the murder, but Lin Mengwei, the instigator, also escaped. Nothing to do!

"Shut up! How can you allow yourself to be presumptuous in front of the monarch!" Mu Xiang got up and made a gesture to slap Mu Ai.

He was about to be pissed off by this unfilial daughter, and she stabbed such a big basket. According to the law, the crime of assassinating the prince was a serious crime that would implicate the entire family!

It doesn't matter if he dies, if he implicates the rest of the clan, he is a big sinner of the Mu family. Thinking of this, Xiang Mu's eyes couldn't help turning red.

Before the slap fell on Mu Ai's face, Mu Xiang's arm was held by An Guoshi, who patted Mu Xiang's shoulder, "Master Mu, sit down first, don't get angry."

Mu Xiang's face was dead silent, and he was supported by An Guoshi to sit down again.

Afterwards, An Guoshi looked at Yun Guangyao, and said slightly, "My lord, since this matter has involved both sides, let's take a good look at it."

"Well, I'll listen to you." Yun Guangyao had a headache, since both Chu Li and Mu Yunjin had come forward to this matter, they must have already had a safe solution, so he followed their words and listened.

Seeing that Yun Guangyao agreed, An Guoshi smiled, and then looked at Yun Lianqing, "Didn't Prince Yun arrest those who stabbed you yesterday into the palace? What about them?"

"Outside." Yun Lian said.

"Then let them in."

"Um."

A moment later, those black-clothed men who attacked Yun Lianqing yesterday were bound into the study by Wuhuada, knelt on the ground, shaking violently.

"It was you who came to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince yesterday?" An Guoshi asked.

"No, she spent money to encourage us." A man in black quickly pointed to Mu Ai.

Then, another man in black added, "Actually, we didn't intend to assassinate the prince. It was Miss Mu who asked us to spend a fortune to pretend to assassinate the prince. Then she rushed out and took the stab for the prince. , and then she told us to retreat immediately."

After the man in black finished speaking, Mu Ai, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Yun Lianqing's left hand in surprise, "Yes, Prince Yun, your left hand was obviously not stabbed by them..."

In the morning, she was so frightened that she was so focused on pleading guilty and begging for mercy that she forgot that she was the one who got stabbed yesterday. They didn't hurt Prince Yun at all!

Where did Prince Yun's injury come from?

"Oh? According to Miss Mu's words, this arm was not injured by the killer you sent?" Master An pointed to the left arm.

Mu Ai nodded again and again, "Yeah, they didn't hurt them, I guarantee with my head that I sent those killers just to put on a show, so that I can also save Prince Yun's life, and then marry into the prince's mansion, I don't mean to hurt Prince Yun."

This time, Mu Ai finally made things clear.

The assassination of the prince and acting in a play are two completely different concepts. Although he cannot escape the crime, he may still have a chance of survival.

"Then your arm..." An Guoshi turned around and looked at Yun Lianqing. He thought the arm was cut by those men in black, but he didn't expect there were other articles?

"This arm..." Yun Lian curled his lips. If he told the truth, it would definitely reach Qing Huan's ears. At that time, he didn't know what Qing Huan would think.

Just as she was thinking secretly, a secret voice came to her ears, it was from Mu Yunjin, "It is said that you were going to cook for Bai Qinghuan yourself, and you were accidentally cut by a knife."

Yun Lianqing was taken aback, such a bad excuse?

Still, it's better than telling the truth.

Then, Yun Lianqing explained the wound on his arm according to what Mu Yunjin said.

After listening to Yun Lianqing's explanation, An Guoshi laughed a few times, and looked at Yun Guangyao, "My lord, this seems to be a misunderstanding, it's Miss Mu who is too naughty and played a prank , let me just say, she is a girl from every family, how could she assassinate the prince for no reason."

Yun Guangyao listened to An Guoshi's words, and glanced at Mu Xiang indiscriminately at the side, couldn't help clenching his fists, and followed An Guoshi's words, "So that's the case, then this matter is a misunderstanding. .”

Seeing that the monarch and An Guoshi described Mu Ai's assassination as a prank, Lin Mengwei was full of dissatisfaction in her heart. This is clearly a capital crime, how could she just let Mu Ai go like this.

"Prince Yun's wound is on his arm. If he was cooking, how could he scratch his arm? Could it be that Prince Yun deliberately wanted to excuse Mu Ai and confuse black and white?" Lin Mengwei was terrified when she said this, but now she can catch her. If there is a flaw, she must not let go of this opportunity.

"It's the first time for the prince to cook, so it's okay to be clumsy? Besides, what is the intention of this woman? According to the prince's understanding, you and Mu Ai are playmates who grew up together. Why do you insist on biting her?" Let it go?" Yun Lianqing's words were tinged with anger, and his complexion sank.

At this moment, the eunuch serving beside Yun Guangyao hurried in, approached Yun Guangyao, and said, "My lord, just now when the leader of the imperial guards was searching the city, he caught a sneaky man. He was trading money with someone, and after the leader of the imperial guards restrained him, he found out that he was a servant of the Shangshu Mansion..."
