midnight.
Tao Yuwei, who was sleeping, trembled all over and woke up from her sleep.
She and some children were leaning against a big, dense tree, and everyone was sleeping soundly.
The dozens of Xiaoyu guards were surrounding the periphery, most of them closed their eyes and rested, and the remaining two did not sleep and were on guard duty.
Not far from them, a fire was lit, one for lighting, and the other to prevent wild animals from approaching.
She stood up and stretched her uncomfortable arms and limbs.
Tonight, she had another inexplicable nightmare.
This made her very unhappy and uncomfortable.
After returning this time, she will dig out all those bastards in her dream who trampled on the General's Mansion and make them pay for it.
She stretched and yawned, only to see Xiao Lichen sitting next to her, who hadn't gone to bed yet.
His eyes were fixed on the night scene in the direction of the capital, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Noticing that she was looking at him, Xiao Lichen withdrew his gaze and looked at Tao Yuwei and asked coldly.
"Princess Anle, if you wanted to re-investigate the case of Zhuguogong's treason, where would you start?"
Tao Yuwei's mind worked faster than her mouth when faced with this sudden question.
[Of course, we start with the Huo family. Concubine Huo's brother, Huo Wei, holds a list of people involved in this incident. This list is hidden in a painting hanging in the Huo family's study.]
[Once we find this painting, we'll know who's behind this conspiracy. The rest of the evidence will be revealed. The most crucial point, of course, is finding the forged imperial letter from the capital to the Duke of Zhuguo, ordering him to lead the charge. Only then can we uncover the truth.]
After Tao Yuwei answered his question in her mind, she was very glad that she didn't say it out loud.
The villain was emotionally stable and normal at this time. The reason why he became a madman who criticized and killed people in the later period was because of the case of Zhuguogong.
He investigated for years and finally found the murderers who killed the entire family of Zhuguogong, but found that their power was too strong and his father had dealings with those mortal enemies.
His mother died of illness due to human error, but his father and the princes desperately protected the real murderers, standing against him again and again, forcing him to become the most famous murderer in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After his death, he was expelled from the royal family and did not even have his own grave.
Looking at the cold and rational villain in front of her, Tao Yuwei inexplicably didn't want to see him turn into a murderous madman.
This case also involved her maternal grandfather's home, the Weiyuan General's Mansion.
Originally, it had nothing to do with her family, but was just a forgery by someone with ulterior motives. Later, this villain became bloodthirsty and, together with those people with ulterior motives, brought the Weiyuan General's Mansion to its doom.
She couldn't be so bold as to tell this man everything she knew.
She will make plans after returning to Beijing and dealing with Tian Linwen, the Sixth Prince and others!
Hearing her words, a dark light flashed in Xiao Lichen's peach blossom eyes.
He knew that the little girl in front of him knew something about his grandparents' home.
There is actually such a thing as a personnel list.
As a result, he really couldn't wait to return to Beijing.
The next day there was a court meeting.
After Emperor Jianchang discussed some matters with his court officials, he ordered Tian Linwen to be brought to the court.
"My dear ministers, Tian Linwen, the son of the guilty minister Tian Ce, wants to expose his father's crimes in front of you and confess everything. Are you willing to listen to him?"
Lin Shirong, the Imperial Censor of the Metropolitan Censorate, was the first to speak out in agreement.
