Concubine Hui's Weiyang Palace.
Concubine Hui was in a good mood and sipping tea late in the evening.
Seeing that she had already drunk two cups, the nanny next to her said with some concern, "Madam, tea is a wake-up call. If you drink too much at night, you may have trouble falling asleep later."
"I am very happy today. I am so happy that I can't sleep. I don't want to sleep all night."
Of course, a confidant like Mammy knew what she was happy about. "The imperial decree to execute Miss Ling San has just been issued. Once this notice was posted, the whole city was in jubilation."
"Ling Jing, you are so naive." Concubine Hui laughed contemptuously, "To survive in a family like ours, in the royal family, you have to be ruthless to the end. She is..."
She sneered again, "She wants to do such a cruel thing, but she also wants to leave herself a soft spot. If she doesn't die, who will die? One of her soft spots is the person who caused trouble for her when she first returned to the mansion. Ha, Ling Jing's heart is really soft enough."
"By the way," Concubine Hui narrowed her eyes, "Have you figured out the details of Zuixianju?"
Ling Jing had been huddled in the General's Mansion for more than five years, living with her useless mother. She had hardly ever left the mansion. How could she possibly run a restaurant like Zuixianju, which was famous throughout Beijing?
And it’s not just a restaurant.
It's a place where the more you investigate, the less you can figure out.
Ling Jing is definitely going to die this time, but she also has to eliminate any accidents that may occur along the way.
"Please forgive me, Madam Queen. No matter how I checked Zuixianju, there was nothing unusual..."
Concubine Hui glanced at her coldly, and the nanny immediately lowered her head.
"Have someone keep an eye on them! Keep a close eye on them. If they make any unusual movements, find a reason to arrest them!"
"Yes, my lady."
Concubine Hui took another sip of tea, "Ling Jing, you won't die this time!"
That night, whether it was court officials, ordinary people, or various other forces.
I won’t talk about attitudes and thoughts.
The next day.
The Ministry of Justice had not only Minister Wang and Minister Mu, but also other people of various statuses in the Ministry of Justice, a total of about 300 people. Because so many people could not fit into the prison, many people stood outside.
Shangshu Wang, Shilang Mu and others went in.
Minister Mu didn't say anything. Minister Wang looked at Ling Jing and said, "Third girl Ling, let's go. I will personally see you off."
"Thank you, sir."
Baili Feiyue walked out, and the people from the Ministry of Justice standing outside all looked at her.
"Miss Ling San..."
Baili Feiyue smiled and said, "Thank you all for your care these past few days."
"Miss Ling San..." These were the only four words they could say.
They are not stupid. They are in Kyoto, and they are in a department like the Ministry of Justice. Many things can be thought of with a little brainpower. However, they are powerless! Even the several masters in their Ministry of Justice can't handle this matter, let alone them.
Baili Feiyue didn't say much.
Those from the Ministry of Justice gritted their teeth and lined up neatly around Baili Feiyue.
It looks like they are escorting a very serious criminal.
It's no secret that Baili Feiyue is in the Ministry of Justice.
At this moment, the outside of the Ministry of Justice was already surrounded by the rioting crowd.
As soon as the people who were clearing the way in front of the Ministry of Justice went out, people started to squeeze in frantically.
In just a day and a half and one night, the people of Kyoto were almost brainwashed.
They rushed over, but when they saw that the people from the Ministry of Justice all had drawn swords in their hands, they stopped with some fear.
Baili Feiyue was surrounded by a wall of people from the Ministry of Justice. All of them were men, most of them taller than her. The various garbage, rotten eggs, and vegetable leaves that they had prepared could not be thrown at her at all if they were standing on flat ground.
Not to mention losing it, you can’t even see it!
"The Ministry of Justice is indeed protecting this criminal!"
"Of course. She was the one who cured the poison in the Ministry of Justice. Besides, Lord Mu, the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice, is Mu Qing's father. The Ministry of Justice has to protect the relationship between Ling Jing and Mu Qing."
"Humph, I've always heard that the Ministry of Justice is the most fair and selfless. Now, it's really disappointing!"
No matter what the people around them said, the people from the Ministry of Justice all had cold faces and walked straight through the crowd of onlookers.
However, on the way to the Meridian Gate, things didn't work.
Because we had to cross several streets, not only were those streets already packed with people, but the teahouses and restaurants on both sides of the streets were also already crowded with people.
Those people are in a high position, so it is of course convenient for them to take action.
"Misfortune! Sinner!"
Someone yelled, and all the dirt on top was thrown down like rain.
The people in the Ministry of Justice are quick, but no matter how fast they are, they can't stop everything.
Not only Baili Feiyue, but even the people in the Ministry of Justice themselves looked bad, and they instantly became smelly and dirty.
Baili Feiyue was better off, because many times when they couldn't do anything with their hands, they would use their bodies to block it for her.
Because Shangshu Wang, Shilang Mu and others who were riding in front were obvious targets, others obviously did not dare to harm them.
Minister Wang's face, which was always smiling like a fox, was now gloomy. "Come here! Arrest those who are disrupting public affairs!"
"yes!"
This shout was a deafening cry.
Dozens of people from the Ministry of Justice rushed to the nearby restaurants and teahouses on both sides.
No one expected this scene and was stunned.
These people were just being impatient, relying on the fact that the law does not punish the masses. Now that someone has been arrested, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet for a moment.
When they saw that the people from the Ministry of Justice had really arrested more than a dozen people, they no longer dared to throw the things in their hands around, but those people did not stop talking.
“Why are you arresting people?!”
"That's right, why are we arresting people? What's wrong with us throwing away criminals? Which criminal is not thrown away?"
Shangshu Wang and the others didn't say anything. The people from the Ministry of Justice who were escorting the people in front of them said coldly, "Throw away the criminals, then what do we and our colleagues have?!"
"We... this is an accidental injury... who asked the Ministry of Justice to protect a criminal..."
Having said that, when they saw that the dozen people were really being escorted away immediately after shouting and struggling, the others did not dare to act rashly.
"Everyone, go to the Meridian Gate!"
"Yes, let's go to the Meridian Gate! Get a good seat! Also, remember to buy some steamed buns! Ling Jing is immune to all poisons. If you eat a steamed bun stained with her blood, you will definitely be immune to all poisons too!"
"You're the only ones who could think of this? Bah! With your brain, you won't even get blood or bones! Before Ling Jing's crimes were posted, someone was already guarding the Meridian Gate. Now, there's not even enough space for people to squeeze in at the Meridian Gate, and you're still occupying a good position!"
Faced with all kinds of voices, Baili Feiyue turned a deaf ear to them.
The rotten vegetable leaves and eggs on his body were invisible.
"Third sister!"
From afar, Ling Xueer, who was squeezed in the crowd and trying to rush in, was restrained by Chai Jin with one hand.
"Let me go! I really underestimated you! When my third sister was in trouble, you were like a coward! Don't stop me!"
