Chapter 571

Chen Qiyu's words surprised both Shangguanjing and Xiao Jingheng.They looked at each other, and then Xiao Jingheng showed a gentle smile to Chen Qiyu: "My lord Chen is serious. My lord Chen is loyal to the country, and my palace and the princess are deeply moved."

This is a polite remark, Xiao Jingheng knows it, and Chen Qiyu knows it too.

The cautious attitude of Xiao Jingheng and Shangguan Jing was expected by Chen Qiyu.

He lowered his eyes, with a wry smile on his lips, then raised his head as if making up his mind, and said again: "Whether your Highness and Your Majesty believe it or not, I want your Highness and Your Majesty to understand my thoughts. Your Highness and Your Majesty are The prince and concubine of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you two represent the future of our Great Zhou Dynasty. To be loyal to His Royal Highness and Empress is to be loyal to the imperial court. This is what I feel in my heart. No matter what Your Highness and Empress think of my minister, I will continue to be loyal to Your Highness and Your Majesty as always. I swear here that I will only be loyal to Your Highness and Your Majesty throughout my life."

These words made Shangguanjing and Xiao Jingheng even more surprised.They never expected that Prime Minister Chen's most outstanding grandson would voluntarily surrender like this.In fact, it hasn't been long since Chen Qiyu entered the court. He has chosen his position so early and stood on the opposite side of the family. This is not a small courage.

But why?Could it be because of the values ​​of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, he couldn't understand his grandfather monopolizing power in the court?
Shangguan Jing was very puzzled.

Doubts are doubts, but the reaction on her face is still very fast.She immediately opened her mouth and said, "My lord Chen is far more than this. My lord and the palace understand what your lord is thinking. My lord is willing to help your highness in the court, and this palace is very grateful."

Chen Qiyu straightened up and looked at Shangguanjing. His eyes were heavy, as if he was suppressing the complicated and turbulent emotions, but only for a moment, he immediately lowered his eyes and silently saluted Shangguanjing again.

When she raised her head again, Chen Qiyu's eyes were completely silent, which made Shangguan Jing feel that what she saw before might be her own illusion.

At this time, Lin Sixing had already sent someone to bring the criminal to court, and Chen Qiyu accompanied Shangguan Jing and Xiao Jingheng to the court, so he didn't have time to say anything more.

This is the first time for Qingzhou Mu to see the prince and concubine of the Great Zhou. He just thinks this pair of young men and women who are so beautiful that they are not real. A pair of beauties.

Because he knew that the pair of young people sitting side by side held his life in their hands.

Zheng Zhoumu's reaction was exactly as Xiao Jingheng and Shangguanjing had expected. He shouted for injustice and resolutely refused to plead guilty.Xiao Jingheng and Shangguanjing knew that this kind of person had a very strong psychological quality. Even if Zhao Tongan's confession and the evidence collected in advance were presented to him, he would definitely insist that it was a false accusation.

Dealing with him requires patience and time.

But this time, Shangguan Jing saw the abilities of Lin Sixing and Chen Qiyu with his own eyes. These two are indeed the best young talents in the imperial court. deal with.

Because Zheng Zhoumu was too cunning, the interrogation lasted until midnight. From the afternoon until now, both the interrogator and the interrogated were hungry, and everyone was very tired.

After Lin Sixing looked at the sky, he opened his mouth and said to Xiao Jingheng: "Your Highness, it's late at night, why not Your Highness and Your Majesty go to rest first, and then leave it to the minister and Mr. Chen."

"No need." Before Xiao Jingheng could speak, Shangguan stared at the file quietly, shaking his head without raising his head: "I can endure it."

"Since afternoon, Your Highness and Your Majesty haven't eaten yet." Chen Qiyu also persuaded, "Even if the interrogation lasts overnight, you can't have an empty stomach. You should rest for a while."

Originally, Xiao Jingheng, who didn't want his wife to work so hard, took the opportunity to pull Shangguanjing up, nodded to Lin Sixing and Chen Qiyu, and ordered: "Leave this to you first, and I will come back later."

"But..." Shangguanjing still wanted to refute, but Xiao Jingheng hurriedly coaxed: "Let's eat first, okay? Things are always busy, so don't be in a hurry."

Xiao Jingheng said so, but Shangguanjing didn't insist. She and Xiao Jingheng returned to the back hall of the yamen. Yingxia and Yingyue were already very anxious. Seeing them come out, Yingyue immediately ordered someone to prepare a meal.

"Director Zhu." Xiao Jingheng instructed Zhu Chengliang again: "Prepare the meals and send them to Lord Lin and Lord Chen. Let them eat in the hall."

"May Zhengzhou Mu watch it on an empty stomach?" Shangguan Jing chuckled: "Yes! I think it's fine."

Zhengzhou Mu felt that he was extremely miserable.He was already exhausted just complaining, his stomach was empty, and his head was starting to feel dizzy. In the end, he finally got through until the prince and princess went to eat, and the two little bastards Lin Sixing and Chen Qiyu still refused to let him go.He even continued to interrogate him while eating delicious food.

Tired and hungry, Zhengzhou Mu really wanted to pass out immediately.It's a pity that he can't get dizzy, as long as he pretends to be dizzy, he immediately pours a basin of cold water on his head, and he doesn't know who came up with the wicked idea, but he even found an acupuncture doctor, if he dares to pretend to be dizzy, he will immediately give two injections, looking for the worst Start with painful acupuncture points.

How wicked! !
Xiao Jingheng: Do you still need to ask?The upgraded version of the method of acupuncture and moxibustion, such a good idea, of course, came from Ben Gong.

"Eat slowly." Xiao Jingheng sighed, picked up the soup bowl on the table, tested the heat, then filled a spoonful of soup, and brought it to Shangguan Jing's lips: "Drink the soup first. You don't have to worry about the court, Lin Sixing and Chen Qiyu stared at it, nothing could go wrong. You don't have to go later, just rest in the back hall, I'll just go and have a look. Don't worry, it's an old fox, but Lin Sixing and the others are enough for me. "

"Then you are working too hard." Shangguan Jing replied after thinking for a while: "I was thinking just now, how about we take turns. Let Lin Sixing and Chen Qiyu also change shifts to rest."

"No need." Xiao Jingheng smiled and shook his head: "Believe me, he won't last long, and he will definitely have a breakthrough tonight."

Now that Xiao Jingheng said so, Shangguanjing didn't insist anymore, she nodded, and suddenly remembered what happened before.

"You said..." Shangguan Jing frowned, looking suspicious: "Is what Chen Qiyu said today... believable? Could it be that Prime Minister Chen signaled him to surrender to us?"

"No." Xiao Jingheng shook his head, his tone extremely firm.

"You mean, you believe that he really wants to be loyal to the East Palace?" Shangguan Jing was slightly taken aback: "He is the grandson of Prime Minister Chen and the nephew of Empress Chen! This is not a trivial matter, how can you be so sure?!"

 ——Here is the dividing line of the Cheongju case——
  The trial of the Qingzhou case has finally started. In fact, I gave Heng Heng a golden finger. An old fox like Zhou Mu, even if there is evidence in front of him, it is impossible for him to act honestly in a day.
