Chapter 248 Downfall (3)

Bai Zhi asked: "The matter is ready."

Tianzhu nodded. Putting arsenic in the mansion was not a difficult task for her. She wanted to put some in Jiang Dan's yard, but Jiang Ruan had explained before that Jiang Dan could pick it clean after the incident. Since she could not take it down in one fell swoop, there was no need to alert the enemy. Although Tianzhu was a little unwilling, she still endured it.

Lian Qiao breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm just waiting for the good news from the prince tomorrow."

The night passed, and everyone had their own thoughts. Early the next morning, a team of officers and soldiers came to prison. The head officer was very unfamiliar. He was very respectful to Jiang Ruan and said that it was just a misunderstanding before and hoped that she would not punish her.

Xiao Shao was moving very quickly, and Jiang Ruan did not make things difficult for the official officer. Fang walked to the boss's door and saw Zhao Yuanfeng waiting for her at the door. Seeing her coming out and rushing forward to look her up and down, he nodded with satisfaction when he saw Jiang Ruan Anran was safe: "He really thoughtful."

Jiang Ruan whispered: "Uncle."

Zhao Yuanfeng looked at her with a smile and waved his hand: "Girl Ruan, since you are out today, I will take you to a good show."

Jiang Ruan smiled: "Okay."

But early in the morning, the people in the Jiang Mansion got up early to clean up and heard the sound of hitting the door from the Jiang Mansion. The servant guarding the door opened the door and saw a group of officials wearing swords entering in a row, looking at the fierce and evil woman. The slightly longer position hurriedly came forward and said, "Official, why are you for no reason..."

The official officer waved the woman aside without hesitation: "Get out of here, I will do my job according to the orders and capture the imperial criminals of the court!"

The woman was so scared that no one in the mansion was an official except Jiang Chao and Jiang Quan, so how could she afford the word "the imperial prisoner"? Could it be that something happened to the master? The woman was so scared that she was silent. However, the officers and soldiers ignored her and went straight into the gate of the Jiang Mansion to search one by one. Soon, the second aunt was escorted out of the yard.

"Official, I'm wronged. I didn't do anything?" The second aunt still didn't understand what happened. Before the news of Jiang Ruan's accident, a group of officers and soldiers were waiting for. The officers and soldiers in the lead were not Li Qiang, so she glared at her fiercely: "Shut up, what do you mean by going to the yamen to tell us!"

The official officer was really vicious, and the second aunt was so scared that she didn't dare to speak again. However, Jiang Quan hurriedly brought people out to investigate after learning the news. When he saw the official officer, he frowned and asked, "Do you dare to ask what the deceitful concubine has committed?"

Originally, with Jiang Quan's rank, these officials did not say that they would flatter him, but they should be treated as a courtesy when they saw him. However, today, the officers and soldiers looked at Jiang Quan with a meaningful tone: "Mr. Jiang, it's better not to interfere in this matter, be careful to cause trouble." After that, he greeted the people below and left without looking back.

Jiang Quan felt a chill in his heart. The tone of the official was quite meaningful. He took the second aunt away but said it was so serious. What does it mean to cause trouble? And is it too much to bring so many people to arrest the second aunt? He was also a person who had been struggling in the officialdom for so many years. A guess immediately emerged in his mind. Could it be that something was wrong with the Minister of Personnel?

Besides, the second aunt followed the officers and soldiers to the government office, leaving two officers and soldiers to look at her, and the leader led the leader to go in first. The second aunt was up and down, and after thinking about it, she became cruel and ruthless and pulled out two jade rings from her fingers. In order to bribe Li Qiang earlier, she had sold all her jewelry. The jade ring was given to her when Jiang Quan first brought her into the palace, and she couldn't bear to take it off. Now the situation is urgent, so she didn't care too much. She grabbed the two jade rings and stuffed them into the hands of the two officials, and smiled apologized: "Official, how dare you ask why you want to arrest me?"

The jade ring is of great quality, and if you take it out, you can still be a thousand eight hundred taels. If these yamen runners rarely see such a thing on weekdays, they will naturally be tacit. But this move is not effective today. The two yamen runners looked at each other and did not reach out to pick up the jade ring.

The second aunt felt a little cold when she saw it. She was not afraid of asking for things, but she was afraid that she would not accept things. Is the matter so serious? What is it that even two yamen runners dare not accept things?

The second aunt's expression changed and she smiled and said, "Official, then... can you tell where your Lord Li Qiang and Li went?"

One of the yamen runners looked at her in surprise: "Mr. Li? I didn't see any signs of it all day yesterday, and there was no one in the mansion. If someone changed, it wouldn't be his turn even if he came back." After thinking about it, he looked at the second aunt and said, "Don't play tricks, save your energy and wait for the court later."

"What are you talking about to her?" Another yamen runner urged impatiently.

The second aunt was even more frightened. She didn't know how long she had been waiting, but she heard the Zhaoyuan drum outside being beaten heavily, and it sounded like it was hitting people's hearts.

Zhaoyuan Drum is only when there is a big case, and it will usually involve the officials of the court. The second aunt was taken to court when the drums stopped.

Two rows of yamen runners stood on both sides, but the master above was not the one who was familiar to the second aunt, and he looked very difficult to get close to others. This was not the one who shocked the second aunt the most. On the lower left of the middle seat, she was sitting with an extremely familiar figure. Jiang Ruan made up clean and tidy, and changed into a light green dress, still as gorgeous and charming as before. At this moment, she looked at her with a smile, and she looked in a state of inappropriate appearance?

The second aunt's heart sank, and secretly hated that Jiang Ruan really escaped again. She felt very unwilling to accept it. Her eyes looked at Jiang Ruan like a sharp sword that was tempted by poison.

The second aunt's appearance was a little unhappy when she fell in the hall. Zhao Yuanfeng coughed lightly: "I'm looking at the sinner's identity, Lord Ke?"

Ke Xiuran, who was on the main seat, was shocked and looked at Zhao Yuanfeng. Everyone knew that the third master of the Zhao family was a rebellious man. He was born in the Zhao family for three generations, but he was still capable. He offended him and would have many more difficulties in the court in the future. Besides, Zhao Yuanfeng came to watch the case in person today. Isn’t it just to support the venue for Princess Hong'an? It would be better to sell him a favor and do things in the future. Thinking of this, Ke Xiuran slapped the agglomeration and said, “Do you know the crime of the crime in the hall?”

The second aunt shook her head, feeling at a loss: "I don't know what crime did you commit?"

Ke Xiuran said: "Bring a witness!"

Then he saw the official escort escorting two maids up, one of whom had a messy hair and murmured: "I'm wrong, old lady, I didn't harm you on purpose, it was the second aunt who asked me to do this. Old lady, I'm wrong..." He was already confused, it was Caique.
