    ?

    There was a momentary blank in Jiang Yan's mind, and then unreasonable anger surged up.  She took a deep breath and asked sonorously, "Dare to ask my lord, what did the student commit?"

    The censor who patrolled the city walked slowly around her, seemingly in a large number, and then asked coldly: "I ask you, do you know Ruan Yu?"

    "I know. Ayu is my best friend."

    "Huh, friend?" Xuncheng Yushi smiled unfathomably, "Did you ask her to go farewell?"

    "An appointment, at noon tomorrow."

    "Tomorrow at noon? Still lying, it's clearly an appointment at 3:00 p.m. tonight!"

    Having said that, Jiang Yan already had an extremely strong premonition, her heart seemed to be clenched tightly by an invisible big hand, and she said eagerly, "My lord, but what happened to Ayu?"

    Xuncheng Yushi strode forward, shook out a piece of letter paper soaked in cinnabar red, and handed it to Jiang Yan, snorting coldly: "You left the note, and you asked out the person, and everyone is dying now."  Now, you still dare to ask me what happened!"

    ¡­¡­about to die?  who?

    The orange flames were indistinct, and it was obviously a hot summer night, but Jiang Yan felt chills all over her body when she saw the writing on the letter paper clearly, and the cold penetrated to the bone marrow.

    [At three o'clock in Xu time, a farewell party at Yanyu Building on Shangyuan Street, I look forward to it.  Jiang Yan]

    A corner of the crumpled letter paper was wet and dark red, and a faint fishy smell could be smelled close.  Shuozhou was in chaos during the war, and corpses were everywhere. Jiang Yan will never forget this smell in his life!

    All of a sudden, an uncontrollable retching surged in her throat, and her heart, which was jumping for joy fifteen minutes ago, felt like a heavy blow, and even the air seemed to become thinner.  She opened her mouth first, her whole body was stiff, and after a long time of hard work, she said in a voice that was so hoarse and almost indistinguishable: "I didn't leave the note! Did you read it wrong? Where is Ayu? I'm going to see her."  she."

    The censor who patrols the city raised his chin and ordered someone to bring up the nurse who was on duty at night.

    The nanny came up hesitantly, looked at Jiang Yan worriedly, and told the truth after repeated hesitation: "Ms. Ruan's family did tell me before going out that Miss Jiang was waiting for her on Shangyuan Street."

    The sense of ominousness is getting stronger and stronger, flooding reason like a tide.  Jiang Yan suddenly raised her voice and said: "I never asked her to go to Shangyuan Street! Mammy, you know that I left the Imperial College after school in the afternoon."

    The nanny said: "Miss Jiang, I'm just telling the truth. If you are wronged, I believe the Lord will clear you up."

    ?In the current situation, all the physical evidence and testimony point to Jiang Yan alone, which makes her unable to argue.  The current situation is probably more terrifying than the battlefield in Shuozhou. Someone killed Ayu and used it to blame her!

    Xuncheng Yushi said: "This handwriting is not yours, I will find out! Before that, you will be detained as a suspect"

    "I didn't ask Ayu tonight, and someone else caused her harm!" Jiang Yan opened her red eyes, walked forward facing the sword calmly, said neither humble nor overbearing, "I want to see Ayu, go and ask the matter clearly!  If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I will never compromise!"

    Her words were sonorous, and she really didn't have the embarrassment and panic that a suspect should have.  The soldiers with swords kept backing away, asking the Xuncheng Yushi what to do with their eyes.

    Seeing that Jiang Yan is not afraid of death, the patrolling censor became anxious, put his hand on the handle of the knife and said: "Stop! Attacking an official is a capital offense!"

    Jin Yiwei, who was escorting Jiang Yan back, quickly reached out to stop Jiang Yan, bowed to Xuncheng Yushi and said, "My lord, this girl was personally escorted back by my subordinates. She has never been to other places along the way, so it is impossible to go to  Go to Shangyuan Street to create chaos! Your subordinates are telling the truth, please be careful!"

    During the chaos, a group of people outside the door stepped in with a lantern, and a familiar and old voice came, and said steadily: "When can the Beijing officials interrogate and arrest students in the prison without the permission of the Imperial College?"

    Jiang Yan looked at the prestige, and the pain in her chest subsided a lot, she put her face together and said to the visitor, "Students have met Lord Jijiu, and Cen Siye and Xun Siye."

    Xuncheng Yushi is just a junior official of the sixth grade. When he saw Guozijian offering wine and Siye, he had to give face, so he waved his hands and turned away from the left and right.  I have no choice but to be an official, please forgive me, Lord Jijiu and the two Siye!"

    Feng Jijiu took a look at Jiang Yan, said 'Oh' and said slowly: "What murder is it? What evidence does Sun Yushi have to prove that Jiang Yan, a prison student, did it?"

    Xuncheng Yushi presented the blood-stained note, and then said: "Xuzheng, someone fell from the window on the third floor of Yanyu Building on Shangyuan Street. After investigation, the victim was a girl aged 17 to 18."  , wearing a light-colored Confucian uniform, from the badge on her waist, she was identified as Ruan Yu, a female student in the Imperial College, the daughter of the prefect of Yanzhou, because she suffered a brain injury when she fell from the building.He sneered and said, "Lord Baihu, you have a very close relationship with the suspect, so you should avoid suspicion, why don't you interfere?"

    Fu Li glanced coolly, and said indifferently: "The order from Beizhen Fusi is the order from the emperor, and Mr. Sun wants to resist the order?"

    The cold voice, the young and stern face seemed to have an aura, which made Sun Yushi dare not speak anymore.  Fu Li didn't look at Jiang Yan's expression, but only looked in front of nothingness, and raised his hand to signal to the Jin Yiwei beside him: "Take Jiang Yan to the doctor's hall for interrogation, no one is allowed to enter unless I order it."

    "Yes!" The two guards clasped their fists to accept the order, and then made a 'please' gesture to Jiang Yan.

    When the fire was extinguished, Jiang Yan was urged to move forward mechanically like a puppet without a soul.  The moment she passed by Fu Li, the dark cloak brushed against the back of her hand, but it didn't bring any warmth.

    Passing by, Jiang Yan's slender figure finally disappeared in the night where the firelight and the knife light intersected.  She couldn't see Fu Li's Adam's apple rolling up and down behind her, couldn't see his hands hidden under the cloak clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands bulged

    Staying alone in the doctor's hall, the surroundings are eerily quiet.

    Jin Yiwei brought her pastries and hot porridge, but she seemed to disappear.  The cold moonlight was like gauze, projected on the ground through the doors and windows, Jiang Yan hugged her arms slowly and slowly as if afraid of the cold, her eyes were empty, and she felt like she had had a long nightmare.

    Ayu will be fine, not long ago she reprimanded those people who bullied her, she was so brave, and she made an appointment to meet frequently after getting married, how could something happen?

    While he was in a daze, the door behind him was pushed open again, and a slender figure walked in slowly.  The man paused for a while, then closed the door with his backhand, squatted down beside Jiang Yan, and asked softly, "Why don't you eat after staying up all night?"

    Jiang Yan looked sideways in a daze, and it took a while for her slack eyes to focus, and she called out in a hoarse voice, "Fu Li?"

    Fu Li let out a 'hmm', reached out to pick up the warm porridge on the ground, stirred it with a porcelain spoon, took a spoonful and brought it to Jiang Yan's lips, and said in a low voice, "Your complexion is not good, eat something to warm it up.  Warm stomach."

    Jiang Yan didn't open her mouth, she just looked at Fu Li fixedly, her eyes were full of stubbornness, and there was still a little bit of hope.  After a long time, she asked with difficulty: "Fu Li, tell me, thenis it Ayu?"

    Fu Li maintained a squatting posture, lowered his eyes and did not speak.

    But that kind of silence is enough to explain everything.

    Jiang Yan seemed to have been drained of strength, unable to move a single finger.  She didn't cry or make trouble, but her tense jaw trembled, she looked at Fu Li quietly, and kept looking at

    Fu Li could even clearly see the hope collapse in her eyes, the stubbornness dissipated, and the storm was about to come.  Bloodshots gradually filled her eyes, and tears gushed out like a bursting embankment, drawing cold wet marks one after another on her pale cheeks.

    Only at this moment did Fu Li deeply realize that it is heart-piercing when someone who has been laughing is crying.

    Jiang Yan raised her hand helplessly, her pale lips trembled, and she made several intermittent breathy sounds.  When Fu Li got closer, he barely heard what she said: "help her, please, help her!"

    The heart is broken, and the strongest sharp blade in the world is nothing more than that.

    The porcelain bowl in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, and the porridge splashed everywhere. Fu Li hugged Jiang Yan desperately, and hugged her tightly, "Okay, I will ask the best imperial doctor to save her. But before the truth comes out,  You must be calm."

    As he spoke, he held Jiang Yan's trembling shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Listen to me. I have already seen Ruan Yu in the medical clinic. Apart from the injury from falling from the building, she has pinch marks on her neck and her knuckles are wide  , it was a man's hand, this is enough to prove your innocence."
