All Hail Cousin Brother

Chapter 916: Shared hatred and hatred

His words were so high-sounding and impassioned that everyone present was filled with indignation and excitement.

As soon as he finished speaking, many people started to chime in: "Well said..."

"Clear the name of the princess!"

"Clear the name of the princess!"

"Clear the name of the princess!"

"..."

Yu Youyao almost buried her face in the cup when she heard this. If the cup was big enough: I asked you to act miserable to gain sympathy, but I didn't ask you to act like myself!

Master Bai's move is really good.

He took advantage of everyone's shame towards Princess Shaoyi. He first used the move of "Diverting Disaster to the East" to turn everyone's attention to the nobles, and then used the move of "Turn Conflicts into Harvest" to arouse everyone's angry emotions. All the blame was transferred to the nobles who slandered and framed Princess Shaoyi.

And under the banner of "clearing the name of the princess", he changed from a tycoon who "helped the emperor to do evil" to a righteous party who shared the same hatred with everyone present, and gained the recognition of many people present.

The Baifu was cleared of suspicion, and Yu Youyao ordered Mrs. Sun to stay for the trial. After saying hello to Ye Xiaoci, she quietly left the courtroom and left through the side door.

However, when Yu Youyao's carriage quietly came out of the Yamen, it still caused quite a commotion.

Back in Yuyuan, Yu Youyao changed her clothes and called Yin Shi: "Send the gentry informants caught earlier and the clues from the interrogation to the Yamen."

Yin Shi took the order.

After entering April, the temperature in Xiangping City increased, and the sun was warm. Yu Youyao found it rare to be clean, so she ordered someone to set up an incense table under the verandah, and read a book while leaning on the imperial concubine's couch. Unknowingly, she fell asleep.

Nanny Xu took a thin blanket and gently covered her body. She dismissed the nearby servants and told Chunxiao to take care of her carefully.

When Yu Youyao woke up, the sun began to move westward, and the mat curtains under the verandah were drawn down, blocking out the wisps of spring cold outside.

"What time is it now?" Yu Youyao leaned lazily on the couch.

"It's been two moments since the hour." Chunxiao poured a glass of warm water with her hands and feet and handed it to Yu Youyao. Then she turned to the incense table and replaced the calming incense in the incense burner with the refreshing mignonette incense.

Yu Youyao held the cup of tea in her hands: "Is Granny Sun back?"

Chunxiao shook his head: "I haven't come back yet. I sent someone back earlier to spread the news, saying that Liu Dagen's case has made a breakthrough. The yamen closed for half an hour at noon and then re-opened the hall. There is no news yet. Retreat."

Yu Youyao was a little surprised.

Chunxiao asked: "Should we send someone to the Yamen to inquire about it?"

Yu Youyao shook her head: "No need, everything will be clear when Granny Sun comes back."

Mrs. Sun didn't return to the mansion until the end of Shen Shi, and immediately came over to report: "The Yamen sent people to Baifu to collect evidence, and announced that they would verify the authenticity of the evidence. The court opened three days later, and then the Yamen interrogated again. In the case of Liu Dagen, there were Mu Guanjia, Magistrate He and others were implicated, and Mu Guanjia provided a new confession."

Yu Youyao had a guess in her mind: "But is it related to the noble clan?"

Mrs. Sun nodded, her face a little solemn: "After learning that Baifu was found not guilty and identified in court, all this was a conspiracy by the Han family to frame Baifu. She also provided a piece of evidence to the government, and Mu Guanjia admitted it in court. He is the spy placed by the Han clan around Hezhi County."

Yu Youyao thought to herself, it is indeed the case.

He Zhixian blamed everything on Mu Guanjia. It was Mu Guanjia who framed the princess because he was good at making decisions. It was also Mu Guanjia who colluded with the nobles and got rid of them all.

Granny Sun continued: "Mu Guanjia took the initiative to admit that Liu Dagen's death was caused by him cooperating with the nobles and planning the arrangements. The purpose was to instigate the Zhang family to complain in front of Princess Shaoyi. Princess Shaoyi stood up in front of the public in full view of everyone. Youyouzhongkou, even for the sake of his reputation as a saint, kindness and virtue, he cannot stand idly by."

Speaking of this, Grandma Sun herself broke into a cold sweat.

"As long as Princess Shaoyi was involved in Liu Dagen's case, they would naturally instigate the county government to report to the court, saying that Princess Shaoyi was disturbing the law and order, and obstructing Princess Shaoyi from promoting sweet potato cultivation in Liaodong to alleviate the drought, and then It was a plan to kill two birds with one stone by ordering refugee camps, causing riots and epidemics, and framed King Wu Mu to promote national policies."

Although things backfired and Princess Shaoyi was not fooled, the nobles still used Zhang's complaint to implicate Liu Dagen's death in connection with the sale of inferior medicinal materials by Baifu. They also released Princess Shaoyi to protect Baifu and interfere with the imperial court. , not abiding by the rules of a girl, Si Chen, etc., spread various rumors to slander and slander Princess Shaoyi.

The crowd of people watching at the yamen gate were furious, and they could not stop shouting curses. Some people even couldn't control their anger and wanted to rush into the hall and beat Guanmu Mu on the spot.

The government officials had to come forward to maintain order.

Yu Youyao took a breath of cold air. She knew very well that the main purpose of the Han family's frame-up of her was to attack the royalists, but regardless of whether it was Mu Guanjia or He Zhixian behind Mu Guanjia, they were not involved at that level. Maybe there was something A little bit of guessing, but definitely not knowing much.

Grandma Sun said again: "Mr. Ye asked, do you have any evidence for what you said? Guanjia Mu immediately said that Mr. Han Liu, a direct descendant of the Han clan, was the one who conspired with him to kill Liu Dagen and frame Princess Shaoyi. , is currently hiding in a village in the suburbs. Although the village is not in his name, it is actually his own property."

The so-called major breakthrough in the case refers to this.

He Zhixian made a good calculation and did not know what method he used to make Guanjia Mu obey his words, and even resisted all crimes without hesitation.

"Master Ye quickly mobilized a team of troops to go to Zhuangzi designated by Mu Guanjia to arrest the Sixth Young Master Han. Mu Guanjie simply refused to do anything and kept on saying that he had a lot of evidence about the Han family's laws and regulations. , and also revealed a lot about the spies placed by the nobles in Xiangping City, and bluntly stated that the unfavorable rumors about Bai Mansion and Princess Shaoyi in Xiangping City were all caused by them."

Yu Youyao felt confident: "What happened next?"

Granny Sun said: "Because the case is of great importance, involves too many areas, and the relevant evidence is very complicated, the state government's Yamen has temporarily withdrawn from the court and will reopen the trial in three days."

The Yamen needs to interrogate relevant witnesses and get more clues from them. It also needs to sort out and verify the evidence and discover all the evidence in its hands. All of this takes time.

Yu Youyao asked about the details carefully again, and she felt confident: "Thank you for the hard work. You should go back and rest first. You need to pay more attention to the progress of the subsequent case."

Afterwards, she was rewarded with some silver coins and jewelry, and Mrs. Sun retired happily.

Early the next morning, the prefecture government office posted a notice on the fourth list:
