The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 417 Intentional
The cold winter is cold, and a gust of north wind blows by, and the plum blossoms on the branches are all falling.

Cui Hengyue wrapped the cloak around her body, followed Jiang Chen to the front yard.

Shui Fu followed behind them, her eyes full of worry, she always felt that the Prince Regent had nothing good to do with seeing Yuan Niang.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Jiang Chen stopped outside a courtyard gate, turned his head and said to Cui Hengyue: "Here we are, my master is inside, Miss Cui, let's go in."

Cui Hengyue hesitated for a moment, seeing that Jiang Chen didn't seem to intend to go in, so he walked into the courtyard.

There was no one around, Shui Fu quickened her pace to catch up with Cui Hengyue, and said quietly: "Yuanniang, there are weirdness everywhere in this yard, you must be careful."

Cui Hengyue let out a "hmm" and looked around.

Turning around the corridor, Cui Hengyue finally saw the person who wanted to see her, and she walked over calmly: "Ms. Cui Yuan has met the regent."

"Follow me." Chen Zhan got up and motioned Cui Hengyue to follow him.

Hearing the footsteps behind, Chen Zhan stopped again, and looked back at Shui Fu: "You stay here, Yuan Niang will follow me."

"Yuan Niang." Shui Fu was a little uneasy.

Cui Hengyue gave her a comforting look, and followed Chen Zhan away.

Chen Zhan did not lead Cui Hengyue far away, with Shui Fu's eyesight, she could see Chen Zhan leading Cui Hengyue to stop in front of a wing not far away.

"Master." The guard at the door of the wing saluted respectfully.

Cui Hengyue didn't quite understand, she turned her head and asked, "What did the Prince Regent bring me here for?"

Chen Zhan's eyes flickered, and he said with a faint smile: "Today, two thieves broke into my house, but no matter how I asked them, they refused to tell the truth.

"I heard that Yuan Niang is smart, I would like to ask you to do me a favor and let them speak."

Ask her to help interrogate the thief?

The more Cui Hengyue listened, the more confused she became. Just as she was about to ask, Chen Zhan's order came from her ear: "Open the door."

The guard immediately opened the door.

A smell of blood escaped from the room, and penetrated straight into Cui Hengyue's nostrils, causing her stomach to churn and she almost vomited.

Cui Hengyue took out a handkerchief to cover her nose, and asked as she walked in, "Where is this place, why is there such a strong smell?"

The sound stopped abruptly.

Cui Hengyue looked at the two people on the wooden frame, her footsteps were as heavy as a thousand catties, and she couldn't move anymore.

Except for their faces, they were covered with scars, and those scars were still bleeding, and the guards were still beating them.

It turned out that the Prince Regent took Su Biwen and Li Bier away
Hearing the movement, Su Biwen and Li Bier looked over. When they saw Cui Hengyue, a trace of consternation and panic flashed in their eyes.

Why did the Prince Regent bring Cui Hengyue here?

What is he trying to do?
Cui Hengyue let go of her clenched fists in her sleeves, showing a puzzled expression: "Prince Regent, who are they? Why do they look familiar?"

Chen Zhan looked at her from the side, and saw that she didn't seem to know her, so he said, "They are the lady Wen and the coachman Wang Balang who hide their faces by your side every day. They changed their appearance before."

"What?" After being surprised, Cui Hengyue looked at it carefully for a while: "Ah, it really looks a bit like it."

The corner of the mouth raised: "So, you two little thieves are here."

Turning around, he said to Chen Zhan, "They are fugitive slaves from the Yasukuni Mansion. I thank the Regent for helping me arrest them. I will take them back and hand them over to my grandfather."

"Hold on."

Chen Zhan stopped him with a voice: "I heard that the Jingguo mansion has infiltrated villains. There is a lot of noise today. Could it be these two little thieves?"

"."

Cui Hengyue, who reacted quickly, took advantage of the situation and showed a look of shame: "The regent is very discerning, and he is indeed wise and powerful.

"The majestic Yasukuni's mansion has people sneaking in, and they still can't catch people. This is a family scandal. That's why I said that. Please forgive me, the Prince Regent."

As he spoke, he praised again: "The Regent's Palace is full of talents, and it was easy to catch these two little thieves."

"Are you envious of the guards in my house?" Chen Zhan leaned over, with a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"what?"

Cui Hengyue was a little dazed, and didn't understand why the regent's thinking was so jumpy.

Seeing her like this, Chen Zhan said, "Since you think the guards in my house are powerful, I'll send you a few."

"Ah? No, no, no need." Cui Hengyue hastily refused.

There were already quite a few spies around her, and if there were a few more, she would be overwhelmed.

Chen Zhan smiled, looked at Cui Hengyue kindly and said, "Although these two little thieves sneaked into the Yasukuni Mansion first, they broke into the Prince Regent's Mansion and fell into my hands. It is impossible for me to hand them over."

The fists hidden in the sleeves were tightened, Cui Hengyue squeezed out a smile, and forced to be calm: "They dare to trespass into the Prince Regent's Palace, and they must not be forgiven lightly.

"Then leave them to the Prince Regent, Yuan Niang will leave first."

Chen Zhan reached out to stop her: "I heard that they have been serving you for a while, and you can be considered their old master.

"They weren't honest with me, and they might think of old relationships and tell you the truth.

"How about you come to interrogate them?"

It was the idea.

Cui Hengyue finally understood what the regent was thinking, but she didn't intend to cooperate. She put away the smile on her face and said solemnly:
"I asked them when their identities were exposed, but unfortunately they didn't tell me half the truth, so I wanted to catch them and interrogate them.

"But they refused to tell even after being tortured in the Regent's Palace, so they wouldn't tell the truth even to me.

"Regent, Shu Yuanniang can't help you, please leave."

Cui Hengyue took two steps back to the side, avoiding Chen Zhan's hand, and walked towards the door.

When he got outside, Chen Zhan chased after him, as if he still didn't give up: "You really don't want to interrogate yourself?"

Cui Hengyue: "The regent is wise and mighty, I believe you will be able to make them speak in a short time."

Seeing her resolute attitude, Chen Zhan no longer persisted nor tried, and ordered Jiang Chen to send Cui Hengyue back to the mansion.

As soon as he entered the Yasukuni Mansion, Cui Hengyue was called by Mrs. Cui.

"Why did the Prince Regent see you?"

All the masters in the room looked at Cui Hengyue.

Cui Hengyue knew their purpose in her heart, and said slowly: "It's the princess who wakes up and wants to see me."

"Sister is awake?" Mrs. Cui Er was more excited, and her tone was urgent: "How is the princess? Is her injury better?"

Cui Hengyue replied respectfully: "Second Aunt, don't worry, the princess is fine. She told the regent what happened that day after she woke up. Our Yasukuni manor has nothing to do with assassins."

Hearing this, everyone in the room secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

A quarter of an hour later, Cui Hengyue left Fuhai Courtyard and returned to Jinglan Court.

Shui Rong already knew the whereabouts of Li Bier and Su Biwen from Shui Fu, and looked at Cui Hengyue worriedly: "The guards of the Prince Regent's Palace have all been on the battlefield, and they are no worse than those from the Ministry of Punishment.

"After a long time, Su Langjun and the others will definitely not be able to survive. If they confess you, then..."

Shui Fu was very anxious and clasped her hands tightly: "But, they are imprisoned in the Prince Regent's Mansion, and it is absolutely impossible to rescue them."

"and many more--"

Shui Rong's expression suddenly became solemn: "calculating the time, Mr. Su Lang and the others should have been arrested by the Regent after they escaped from Commander Bai.

"It seems that they have been targeted by the Prince Regent long ago.

"Maybe the regent took you to see them just now, and he deliberately revealed it to you, waiting for you to save people."

After hearing these words, Shuifu became even more flustered: "Yuanniang, don't be impulsive, if you go to save people, you will definitely be caught."

Cui Hengyue was very calm: "I know, but man, I must save."
