Du Yuanwai also heard about the uproar caused by Shen Ningning over the death of the Wu family.

He was originally responsible for the overall planning of this assassination, and then asked Wei Shangshu to find some assassins who wanted money rather than their lives. However, the bad thing was that Shen Ningning did not die!

Moreover, Wei Shangshu will be found out soon.

Du Yuanwai felt a little uneasy.

With Wei Shangshu's foundation in the court, how could it be easily shaken.

When the time comes, what he has done will definitely be made public and he will become the scapegoat of Wei Shangshu!

Thinking of this, Du Yuanwai could not sit still. He hurriedly wrote a letter and called his confidants.

"Quick, go to the inn to hurry up and deliver it to Gao Zheng."

Qin Gaozheng, although his surname is Qin, is actually his and Wang Guihong's son.

After his confidant left, Du Yuanwai made some arrangements.

Until half an hour passed, he paced back and forth anxiously in the room.

No, we still have to leave the capital first!

Du Yuanwai opened the door to the study and was about to let his wife pack her bags and leave with a few servants, her eldest daughter and Qin Fangmei.

Unexpectedly, he bumped into Wei Shangshu's trusted guard.

As soon as the other party saw him, he smiled sinisterly.

"Commissioner Du, who are you looking for when you go out in a hurry?"

"I...I feel upset and want to go out for a walk."

"That's unfortunate. Lord Shangshu has sent you to pick you up. We have something important to discuss. Mr. Du, can you go?"

"Can you please allow me to leave a message for my wife?"

The guard looked a little impatient: "Master Shangshu doesn't have that much patience to wait for you."

Therefore, Du Yuanwai did not dare to make any more demands.

But when he was about to go out, while the guard was walking in front of him and was not paying attention, he quietly cut a writing brush on the window sill to his right into two pieces, and then threw it on the ground.

at the same time.

In Xiangyun Village, the personal guard beside the prince is named Wu Fang, a man over twenty years old with a cheerful personality.

From the carriage, he took out everything the prince bought for Shen Ningning and introduced them in detail.

"Miss Shen, His Highness the Crown Prince bought ten of these small square boxes with gold flowers for you. All your future pearl jewelry can be stored here."

The villagers gathered in a circle, and behind Shen Ningning, their eyes widened.

The young village woman exclaimed: "When I got married, I saw this when I was buying a dowry in the city. Just one of them costs thirty or forty taels!"

"These ten are almost five hundred taels, right?"

Wu Fang smiled with big white teeth and continued to introduce: "There are also these, a complete set of porcelain sea blue rich bowls and plates, with a total of hundreds of bowls and plates, and matching white ivory chopsticks."

"Miss Shen, do you know the price of this object?"

Shen Ningning raised her milky white face and shook her head in confusion.

The series of names Wu Fang said was too complicated for her.

"I don't know..."

"The price of gold lies in the fact that this sea blue porcelain kiln is a royal tribute and can only be used by nobles and nobles."

The villagers exclaimed in envy for a moment, and Shen Ningning also covered her mouth, her pink face trembling.

"Can I use it?"

"Of course it can!" Wu Fang laughed loudly: "The favor given to you by His Highness the Crown Prince, who dares to say that it is not possible?"

Immediately afterwards, he said several more things.

Grandma Qin was very satisfied with the four pairs of colorful glass vases and thought they would be very useful for pickling vegetables.

There are also sapphire-wrapped coral trees and white stone inkstones carved with asparagus...

No matter which one you take out, it's expensive.

Shen Ningning heard from Wu Fang that these were all gadgets that Mo Lingwei had collected for her locally.

To this end, he also bought a few pieces of brocade that was popular there, called Snow Xiangyun.

The whole body is orange-red, and the color is as bright as the glow of the sun.

It feels as smooth as silk.

Shen Ningning likes it so much!

Although she earned a lot of money, she was rarely willing to buy clothes for herself.

Sometimes when the skirt is torn, grandma will sew it up and continue wearing it.

Such a good material, even if it was made into clothes, she would not be willing to put it on.

Wu Fang looked at her eyes as bright as stars and guessed that she must like it.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has said that if Miss Shen likes it, you can now return to the palace with a humble job. There are embroiderers and a special weaving department in the palace who will tailor clothes for you."

The villagers were even more surprised now.

Being able to wear clothes made by the embroiderers in the palace, what is the difference between Ning Ning and the nobles?

Aunt Liu couldn't help but say: "Ning Ning, His Highness, the Crown Prince, is so kind to you!"

Shen Ningning wanted to refuse modestly, but she liked small skirts too much.

What's more, she has grown up, and it is a girl's nature to love beauty.

In the private school, she saw other ladies wearing decent and beautiful clothes, and she wanted them too.

The little guy nodded: "Then let's go now!"

Wu Fang smiled happily.

If His Royal Highness knew that he had successfully completed the task, he would definitely reward him.

At this moment, Wang Captou looked solemn and hurried over on thin horses with a few official servants.

"Miss Shen!" Wang Captou saw her there, dismounted his horse and walked quickly: "You have to go to the Yamen with us."

Grandma Qin pulled Shen Ningning behind her: "What's wrong?"

Wang Captou glanced at Grandma Qin: "Madam, you are here too. That's just right. Let's go there with Miss Shen."

Shen Ningning asked: "What happened?"

"Miss Shen, you are right. The death of the Wu family was not an accident. The emperor personally supervised the matter and has caught the real culprit."

"Who is it?" Shen Ningning was a little surprised.

She knew that such a big movement would definitely attract the emperor's attention, but she didn't expect the results to come out so soon.

Wang Captou said: "It's Du Yuanwai. Moreover, I asked you to come over because you also know the witness who accused Du Yuanwai. His name is Qin Sheng, who used to be your uncle."

Grandma Qin's expression changed drastically.

"Because his testimony requires your presence, but the specific story will be known when Miss Shen went to the Yamen for hearing." After Wang Captou said this, Shen Ningning was silent for a moment.

She nodded: "I'll go."

Her brother has come back and she is not afraid.

Grandma Qin took Shen Ningning's little hand and said, "Grandma will go with you."

The little guy didn't refuse and asked Chen Ye to drive the carriage.

Because grandma is too old to ride with Wang Captou.

Shen Ningning called Jiang Zhi again and moved all the treasures sent by Wu Fang to the village house.

He didn't forget to whisper some instructions to her.

Jiang Zhi nodded: "I know how to do it."

Afterwards, Shen Ningning went to the Yamen in the capital.

On the way there, Shen Ningning heard Wang Captou say that Qin Sheng originally went to the Guangyang County Yamen to confess.

But the emperor personally inquired about the matter, and County Magistrate Fu sent someone to send Qin Sheng to the Yamen in the capital.

When Shen Ningning arrived, Mo Lingwei also arrived.

He didn't have time to change his clothes and already knew everything.

When he saw Shen Ningning, he was the first to reach out and hold her.

"I'm back, no matter what happens, I'll make the decision for you, don't be afraid," he said.

Shen Ningning immediately nodded with relief, and there was a hint of relief on her round and white face.

Grandma Qin was supported by Chen Ye and walked into the yamen.

Her unsatisfactory son Qin Sheng knelt on the ground as expected.

He was as thin as a ghost and had thick sores on his body. The stench was overwhelming in this hot summer.

This matter was so extraordinary that the emperor personally inquired about it, so the official responsible for reviewing the matter was directly replaced by Jing Zhaoyin.

He was sitting in the hall when he saw the prince coming. He hurriedly got up to say hello, and asked people to bring chairs and set up a canopy to protect him from the sun.

Mo Lingwei took Shen Ningning and sat next to him, while Grandma Qin sat opposite.

Qin Sheng raised his peripheral vision, glanced at Grandma Qin with guilty eyes, and then lowered his head.

Jing Zhaoyin asked humbly: "Your Highness, can we begin?"

"Let's go to trial." Mo Lingwei nodded, his expression majestic and cold.
