It wasn't until dawn, when those people opened the door and came in to collect the incense ashes, that Mo Lan had the chance to go out.
When passing a yard: "Dad, I have to stay at home for a long time! I'm going to get moldy!"
"Don't worry, hurry up, hurry up, once Gan Ruizhi's charges are proven, dad will let you go out and have fun."
Mo Lan was walking towards the inn while thinking, when suddenly a man bumped into her.
The man said sorry and ran away in a panic after seeing clearly that it was her.
She has an impression of this girl, who has always been with Mrs. Gan. Why not follow her and see if there is any breakthrough.
Mo Lan followed the maid until she entered the door. Su family!
The Su family is a famous family in Liushan Prefecture. This is just a side branch, directly related to the capital, and one of the four major families.
No matter, let’s go in first.
The maid arrived at a courtyard, looked around and saw no one, so she got in. Mo Lan hid on the wall and saw a person who shouldn't be here.
The maid bowed to him and said, "Master Liu, I haven't made any changes yet."
Liu Xuezhou waved her hand to let her go down, and then a woman walked out of the room, looking twenty-six or seventy-seven.
"Uncle, do you think you can completely defeat Gan Ruizhi this time? The young master named Chu seems to be hard to fool."
Liu Xuezhou stood in the pavilion with his hands behind his hands, looking at the sparkling water, and did not speak for a long time.
"Hua'er, relax, he won't be able to get out of prison this time."
When Mo Lan heard this conversation, she slipped with her feet, made some noise, and hurried away.
The uncle and nephew in the courtyard looked at each other and knew that they had been exposed, but they didn't know who the other party was.
When Liu Xuezhou left, he ordered his servants to strengthen patrols and hurried to Lou's house.
Mo Lan, who returned to the inn, took the chopsticks and bit them in his mouth, staring at the food in front of him fiercely.
Shen Shiyuan took a chopstick and put it in her bowl, "What's wrong, are you planning to kill this dish?"
"Huh? No."
Mo Lan suddenly thought of something, put down his chopsticks, and looked straight at Shen Shiyuan. Shen Shiyuan touched his face. Did he get ink on his face when he made comments just now?
"Brother Shen."
"Um"
"The four major families in Beijing are the Lou family, the Su family, the Qin family and the Wen family, right? I'm often in the boudoir, and I don't know many things at all. Just tell me about these families."
Mo Lan looked at him and smiled stupidly like a curious baby.
Shen Shiyuan took a bun and put it in her hand and said, "Eat, talk while eating."
The Wen family has always been a very mysterious family. They never take the initiative to deal with the officials. It is said that they rely on a certain large sect behind them. If there is no chaos between countries, they usually disappear.
Seven years ago, Daxing and Beijiang fought on the border, causing the people on the border to be displaced. People from the Wen family appeared to take in the people.
It was precisely because of the appearance of the Wen family that the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang were defeated one after another, and Gong Yi was rescued.
As for the Qin family, it was the Empress Dowager's mother clan. It was originally just a small family, but because of the late Emperor's great efforts in seizing the throne, it was reused by the late Emperor. Over the years, its power has greatly increased and it has become one of the largest families in Beijing.
But it has become a family that everyone despises. The younger generations of the Qin family rely on the support of the Queen Mother and most of them do all kinds of evil. As the Queen Mother gets older, the Qin family becomes less and less controlled.
Gong Yi's temperament has changed drastically since he came back from the battlefield seven years ago, and he has been secretly weakening the Qin family's strength over the years.
The Lou family is a large family that has existed in Beijing for thousands of years. It existed before the founding of the Daxing Dynasty.
As the spiritual power of Chiyuan Continent is approaching depletion, fewer and fewer people from the Lou family can cultivate.
Four hundred years ago, when Daxing was established, he surrendered to the royal family. The current old marquis of the Lou family had rescued him many times.
The Su family is the weakest family, and its first generation patriarch was a direct disciple of the Lingxiao Sect.
But all the children in his family can cultivate spiritual power.
Because they can create spiritual sources to exist in the human body, even descendants of collateral descendants will enjoy this honor.
Since there are not many people who are born capable of cultivating, those who inherit the spiritual source can only stop at the mysterious realm.
There is no strong person in the heavenly realm in the family, so he naturally becomes the weakest.
"Brother Shen, do you know who I saw today?"
Shen Shiyuan was puzzled.
"She is the legitimate daughter of the Su family in Liushan Prefecture, Su Miaohua!"
Mo Lan told Shen Shiyuan what he saw and heard last night and today.
It was also learned that Su Miaohua, Gan Ruizhi's second wife, was supposed to marry into the royal family based on her family background. After all, she was the most talented person in the Su family.
Unfortunately, he went to the Warcraft Forest to experience and was trapped in the realm of chaos. He only returned to the Su family three years ago. He was already past the marriageable age and had to marry Gan Ruizhi as his second wife.
However, not long after marrying Gan Ruizhi, she disappeared while outing and only found her sachet by the river, so everyone thought she was dead.
Mo Lan was a little irritated. It seemed that all the evidence found pointed to Gan Ruizhi's murder, and the three adults didn't know why they wanted to prove Gan Ruizhi's crime.
However, Lou Zhuoying was not dead, which meant that Gan Ruizhi had not committed a crime. However, King Qi's warning to her also made her worried.
What should we do?
Why did Su Miaohua have to fake her death and leave after having such a hard time?
Gan Ruizhi's fifth wife, Jin Mingyue, had just died of illness. Lou Zonghan couldn't wait to marry his daughter to him and planned this frame-up.
He borrowed her hand to obtain the so-called murder evidence. Is it possible that Gan Ruizhi has any other secrets?
By the way, that maid!
Mo Lan rushed to Gan Mansion immediately, but was told that the maid had not come back from going out today. She went to Su's house again, and the place was heavily guarded.
She could clearly sense that a master came to the Su family.
There are so many people in a small Zhizhou who want to touch him. Since they want his life, why not send a killer?
It was night, Mo Lan was leaning against the window in a daze, with a look of despair on his face.
"Prince Qi, Prince Qi, you have left a big hole for me to fill."
Suddenly, a colorful bird with feathers stopped beside her hand, with a bag tied to her leg.
Mo Lan took it off and opened the bag. Inside was a dragon-shaped jade pendant. Gong Yi's voice came over.
"Close the case as soon as possible. Remember, the emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. This jade pendant can mobilize the troops of Heding Prefecture. Use it carefully."
Mo Lan wanted to throw the jade pendant away, but was afraid that Gong Yi would take it back later.
Mobilizing troops, what do you mean, arresting Lou Zonghan?
If she really does this, I am afraid that the Lou and Chu families will become hostile. The Queen Mother is not satisfied with the Chu family in the first place, and she is afraid that the Chu family will be in constant trouble in the future.
Also, King Qi is the son of the Queen Mother, how could he think favorably of the Chu family?
"Dad, what would you do if it were you?"
Chu Yue looked at the starry sky, and the two fathers overlapped unexpectedly, so serious and upright!
At night, Mo Lan came to Gan Mansion again, avoiding everyone, and came to the wedding yard.
Lou Zhuoying was discovered by the maid in the early morning. Only one person's footprints in the back garden were found through the window.
With only these clues, we can only confirm that Lou Zhuoying was in the room and did not go out. So who is the person who went out?
Damn old woman, you erased too many traces.
I always feel that I have forgotten something, and then think about Gan Ruizhi's testimony carefully.
By the way, before he entered the room, Lou Zhuoying and her maid were inside. After he entered, the two of them were in a panic. What did they do?
Suddenly, there was a noise in the yard. Mo Lan immediately came to the door and saw Gan Zhilin through the crack in the door.
Mr. Gan, what is he doing here?
He closed the door to the yard, and in the moonlight, he put down the box in his hand and walked to the fountain.
He reached out and moved the water-spraying device, and the water stopped.
The water in the pool dropped little by little, and after a while, several stone slabs at the bottom of the pool sank downwards and rotated in a fan shape.
A big hole appeared at the bottom of the fountain. He took the box and walked down the stairs.
Mo Lan followed immediately.
In front of the end is a long corridor.
It's not as dark down here as you imagined. The walls are inlaid with luminous pearls, and you can clearly see the murals on the walls.
Suddenly, some memory fragments that did not belong to her poured into her mind, giving her a headache. She vaguely saw Gan Zhilin pushing open the stone door and entering a room.
Mo Lan stepped forward and stretched out his hand to hold the wall, but the wall moved inward. It was a secret door.
Gan Zhilin heard something moving outside, put down the food box in his hand, pulled out the dagger, opened the door and waved, but there was nothing.
A wild cat jumped down from the other side of the corridor and howled there.
A group of soldiers stepped forward and detained several people.
"Oh! Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Young Master, you have misunderstood" Lou Zonghan waved his hands repeatedly!
"Sir, come with me!"
Mo Lan snickered in success, waved his hand and told the others to wait outside, and followed him into the house!
"Haha, it's really a treasure!"
After a while, Mo Lan's voice came out!
People outside looked confused as to what was going on.
After a while, Lou Zonghan and Mo Lan came out arm in arm!
"Go down, sir. Everything today is all a misunderstanding. I'm in a good mood today. Ai Xiang, tell me to go down and bring some wine. I want to drink with you all!"
Although Lou Zonghan was smiling, he was gritting his teeth. He is now your family, right?
Several people entered the house and dismissed everyone.
The people in the army felt as if they were dreaming. Was Mr. Qin bribed?
"So, how did your lords know about this spy in the army?"
After entering the room, Mo Lan immediately turned cold.
Liu Xuezhou took out a short arrow from his arms.
"This was taken from my niece Su Miaohua."
This guy is smart and comes with evidence.
Three years ago, Gan Ruizhi took Su Miaohua on an outing. When it was almost time for dinner, Su Miaohua found that he was not there and looked around.
I accidentally heard something I shouldn’t have heard.
Gan Ruizhi stood respectfully under a tree. There was a woman sitting on the trunk, wearing a purple veil.
"Master Gan, I have been waiting for a long time!" The woman coiled herself down the tree trunk like a snake and leaned against him as if she had no bones.
"Miss Mantuo is serious. Recently, a new governor has been appointed in Heding Prefecture. The inspections are strict. I have an excuse to get away today."
The woman sneered: "What a bullshit governor, when I go from south to north, huh! Then it will be up to you, Mr. Gan, to open up Daxing!"
