Chapter 114

"Stay stubborn, come here, continue to torture."

Mr. Zhang didn’t expect this matter to be so troublesome. Didn’t Chu Huaiyuan tell him that everything was arranged and he just had to follow the other party’s instructions, but now he is completely out of control. If he had known that Zeng An would retract his confession, he would not have Ye Qi knocked the painting unconscious.

Zhao Ying'er couldn't stand it anymore, she said: "Sir, Ye Qi said that he didn't identify me as a murderer, so why do you say that he admitted that I was a murderer, and Zeng An also admitted that he killed me, why don't you investigate How could the man who persecuted him and harmed others condemn me?"

Master Zhang's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he glanced at Chu Yun who was standing outside the door. Chu Yun was still staring at him, which made him feel bad.

"The officer will naturally find out the truth of the matter, the guilty will not escape, and the innocent will not wrong them, but these two people are different from what they said at the beginning, as if they were threatened by someone, which makes people suspicious. "

"Adults naturally say that they are threatened by others, so please show evidence, don't just talk about it."

"I will investigate this case carefully. I will leave the court first. I will come here today. Someone will send all three people under the court to prison."

Jiuye looked back at Chu Yun, waiting for Chu Yun's order, but Chu Yun didn't say anything, he had to watch the yamen servant take Zhao Ying'er away.

He walked up to Chu Yun and asked, "My lord, why did you let them take the princess away?"

"Nothing, they dare not."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Mr. Zhang coming from the courtroom, and said with a smile: "My lord, why are you here, please come in, please come in."

"No need, I have to go back. I'm here to remind my lord that I know what you and my royal brother did."

Master Zhang's expression changed after hearing this, and the smile on his face couldn't hold back: "My lord, what are you talking about, I don't understand."

"It doesn't matter whether you understand it or not, what matters is your choice next."

After Chu Yun finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Master Zhang to stay where he was thinking about what Chu Yun had just said.

After thinking for a while, he didn't know what to do, so he hurried back to the house, changed his clothes, and went to find Chu Huaiyuan after dawn.

Chu Huaiyuan was chatting with Zhao Rongrong in the mansion. She ran away last time, but because she couldn't let go of her grandparents, she went back to see them and talked to them. Caught it back.

Zhao Rongrong was sitting in front of the table. There were delicacies on the table, but she was not in the mood to eat, and her face was full of sadness.

"Rongrong, eat some."

"My name is not Rongrong, I am Ahua, you are really mistaken."

"This king is right. Your name is Rongrong. The name Ahua is not pleasant. From now on, you will be called Rongrong."

When Zhao Rongrong met this pervert, she felt unlucky, but he locked her here, she couldn't get out, and wanted to cry every day, if she knew that she would not go back to see her grandparents after she ran out a few days ago.

"Come to eat, what dish do you like, I will pick it up for you."

"I don't want to eat, you put me back, my grandparents are still waiting for me."

"The king has sent someone to take care of them, so you don't have to worry about them."

"Come, eat a piece of fish."

Chu Huaiyuan picked up a piece of fish for Zhao Rongrong, but Zhao Rongrong just glanced at it and didn't want to eat it: "I'm not hungry."

"You don't like fish, so eat a piece of bamboo shoots."

Chu Huaiyuan took another bamboo shoot, but Zhao Rongrong still refused to eat it, which made Chu Huaiyuan a little anxious.

"Rongrong, what do you want me to do before you are willing to eat. You didn't eat yesterday, and if you continue like this, you will starve to death."

"If you let me go back, I will have a good meal."

Chu Huaiyuan looked at Zhao Rongrong, who was hungry and thin, and felt a little distressed.

"Okay, then I'll take you back, will you accept me?"

Zhao Rongrong didn't have a good impression of the man in front of her, and she couldn't bear to deceive him, so she could only say, "Let me go back first."

"Since you are homesick, I will go with you."

"No, you don't want to go."

"Do you hate me so much?"

Zhao Rongrong fell silent, because she was afraid that she would offend him if she told the truth, but even if she didn't want to, she couldn't stop him.

"I want to go home."

"The king will send you back."

Chu Huaiyuan felt that she should not be forced too much, and finally came to his side, but he should not be forced away by him.

"Ah."

"eat first."

"it is good."

Zhao Rongrong picked up her chopsticks and started eating. She had just taken a few mouthfuls when she saw someone coming to Chu Huaiyuan, and Chu Huaiyuan walked out.

It was Mr. Zhang who came, and Mr. Zhang said in a panic: "My lord, it's not good. Zeng An retracted his confession. He admitted that he killed Zeng Ye, and said that he was bribed."

"Where is he now?"

"In the prison."

"Then let him die and never speak."

Chu Huaiyuan heard the news that the people he sent out failed to get rid of Zeng An last night. He guessed that things would change today, but he didn't expect that there would be a change.

It must be his younger brother who wants to clear his concubine from the crime. It seems that his younger brother cares about his concubine very much. Since he cares so much, it's time for that younger brother to experience the feeling of losing his beloved.

"But Ye Qi, he refuses to identify Zhao Ying'er."

"Don't worry about him, he has already made a bet, and it's useless to deny it."

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

After Mr. Zhang asked Chu Huaiyuan, he felt a lot more at ease. After all, it was related to the black hat on his head. If it was found out that Ye Qi's identification was false, then he would be involved.

He walked back quickly and ordered people to kill Zeng An.

Today's sunshine is very bright, but this bright sunshine can't shine inside the prison.

Zhao Yinger was locked in a cell alone, and her treatment was not bad, because Chu Yun was there to support her, she had a new bed with a clean quilt, while other prisoners were covered with dirty quilts. Some quilts lie directly on the ground.

But Ye Qi was dragged in and thrown directly on the ground. He had wounds all over his body, and he couldn't get up and lie on the bed by himself, so he could only lie on the cold ground.

Seeing that Ye Qi was not far away from her, Zhao Ying'er called him, and after getting his response, she said, "Ye Qi, why do you say that I killed someone?"

"I didn't say it, I don't know what's going on at all."

Ye Qi's voice was weak, his face was pressed to the ground, covered with mud.

"Then they said you said I was the murderer, and you saw it with your own eyes."

"I really didn't say it, otherwise I wouldn't have been beaten like this."

Zhao Ying'er looked at Ye Qi, his injury was indeed serious, it seems that he did not say it, besides, he kept denying that he saw her harm someone in court today.

"That's strange, they said you made a bet."

"I don't know at all, these despicable villains."

As soon as Zhao Ying'er heard it, she knew what was going on.

"They must have taken your hand to make a bet while you were unconscious."

"Very likely."

Zeng An was not imprisoned here, but was imprisoned elsewhere, and they couldn't see him either.

"But it doesn't matter. Zeng An has already admitted that it was he who killed the person, not us. We will be able to get out soon."

"hope so."

Ye Qi closed his eyes weakly, he was very thirsty now, he just wanted to drink water, he hadn't drunk water since last night, his throat was dry with thirst.

"Do you have any water, can you send me a bowl?"

"Yes, I will ask someone to bring you water."

Zhao Yinger saw a kettle on the table, she lifted the kettle, it was full, but there was nothing in Ye Qi's cell, so she called someone and asked him to send the water to Ye Qi.

The jailer didn't want to take care of this kind of thing, but due to Zhao Ying'er's identity, he agreed, and came to Ye Qi with a kettle and poured him a bowl of water.

"You should thank her, because of her you have water to drink."

Ye Qi picked up the bowl and started to drink. He was too thirsty, he just wanted to drink water, and he didn't care what others said in his ear.

After drinking the water, he wiped his mouth and lay on the ground contentedly: "It's been a long time since I drank so happily."

Seeing Ye Qi being tortured like this in prison, Zhao Ying'er felt a little sympathetic. After all, she is also the son of the prime minister's family, so why don't you give me face?

"Ye Qi, if you bear with it, we'll be able to go out soon."

"it is good."

Zhao Yinger sat in the prison for a while, but was also very bored, so she lay on the bed in a daze.

And Chu Yun was not idle outside, he asked someone to find a minister who had a good relationship with him, and reported what happened here to the emperor, so that the emperor would know what the case was about.

After he finished these things, he returned to the mansion because he was fined to stay in the mansion and not go out.

You can't hang around outside if you have nothing to do, or if someone tells the emperor again, the emperor will be even more angry with him.

In this way, it was noon and it was time to eat again. On the table in front of Zhao Yinger was meat and vegetables, and Ye Qi only had a bowl of leftover rice that looked like pig food, so she shared half of her meal with Ye Qi.

Besides they were eating, Zeng An was also eating. Zeng An stayed in the prison for a whole morning, and he was very nervous. He finally waited for the meal. When he saw the chicken legs, he became suspicious. Why is the food in the prison so good? , and gave the prisoners chicken legs.

He was so hungry that he didn't think about it. He picked up the chicken leg and ate it. The chicken leg was big and fragrant, and he bit off a lot of meat in one bite.

"good to eat."

He ate a mouthful of meat and then a mouthful of rice. After he finished eating, his stomach hurt unbearably. He frowned and squatted on the ground clutching his stomach.

"Oh, my stomach hurts, what did you put in the meal?"

But no one responded to him, so he slammed on the cell door: "Come on, I'm going to die, come and save me."

No matter how he slammed on the cell door, no one came to see what was going on, as if there was no one outside.

It wasn't until he died of poison and fell to the ground that someone came in and felt his pulse. After confirming his death, he stuffed the paper containing the medicine into his clothes to create the illusion of committing suicide in fear of crime.

After doing these things, he went back and reported to Mr. Zhang. After hearing this, Mr. Zhang was very satisfied, thinking that the problem would be solved now.

The news of Zeng An's death quickly reached Chu Yun's ears. Chu Yun was eating and thoughtful after hearing the news.

"he died?"

"Correct."

Amo replied.

"It's good to die. If you die, it means that someone has a guilty conscience."

And everything that happened here was told to the emperor. The emperor was resting on the dragon bed when he heard the minister come to talk about it. After hearing this, he was very displeased.

"I have come to report this little matter to me, are those ministers just a display?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know that this matter is very complicated, and it is not as simple as it appears on the surface. Although it appears to be an ordinary case on the surface, in this case, someone wants to destroy King Chu. reputation, and provoke the father-son relationship between the emperor and the king of Chu."

"Is that right?"

The emperor was lying on the bed with his concubine feeding him grapes. He just felt better recently, so he should not be too tired.

"It's like this. Just now there was news that the entourage died and committed suicide in prison. Think about it, the emperor. In the morning, he changed his words and said that he was forced to kill Zeng Ye, and he died at noon. This is very strange, once he died, he took the truth away. He also said this morning that a man once asked him to frame Princess Chu and gave him a large amount of money. The wound was left when the mysterious man threatened him, so based on the above, I think Princess Chu was wronged."

"But didn't someone say that they saw the poison of Princess Chu with their own eyes?"

"Chen specifically asked overnight seven, he said he didn't know what was going on, he never said anything at all."

"If what you said is true, then the person who planned this matter behind the scenes is too daring to do such things under my nose. Check it out, and definitely check it out."

The emperor was thoughtful, he couldn't believe that at the foot of the imperial city, there were people covering the sky with one hand, trying to turn right and wrong into black and white.

"Liu Aiqing, it's up to you to investigate this matter."

Although he is old and sick, he is not stupid.

"The minister leads the order."

"Well, let's go."

Master Liu withdrew, and he went to investigate the matter.

When Zhao Ying'er in prison heard the news of Zeng An's death, her heart turned cold instantly. She didn't expect that he was still murdered, but who was the one who wanted to kill her this time.

She knew that only some women who liked Chu Yun in the book would be jealous of the heroine, and secretly play tricks to harm the heroine, but obviously, this is not something a woman can do, it must be a man with power made.

Speaking of people who hated Chu Yun, Chu Huaiyuan was the only one. Just because Zhao Rongrong liked Chu Yun, he thought it was Chu Yun who stole the woman he liked, and wished Chu Yun would die immediately.

Looking at this, it's pretty much like he did it, because only he has the ability.

Zhao Ying'er became depressed again, and the hope that was finally ignited was shattered again. She looked at Ye Qi, but fortunately, Ye Qi was sleeping and didn't know about it, otherwise he would be so desperate, his body was tortured like this , Finally, there was hope, but the hope was shattered again.

She sat at the table, holding her chin in her hands, feeling unhappy, because she didn't know how the next plot would develop. She wouldn't really be treated as a criminal and executed.

Thinking of the death penalty here, she was afraid, and she had an idea of ​​wanting to escape here.

Zhao Ying'er stood up, she couldn't sit still anymore, she was afraid that her life would be lost here.
