Chapter 157
"Presumptuous." King Yu scolded.

Princess Yu stepped forward and said, "Yu Jing, don't meddle in this matter."

"Mother Concubine, why even you?" Don't you want to find the real culprit?

Princess Yu was very patient with him: "Yu Jing, if we continue to investigate Mu Yao's death, it will not be good for us. If something happens in Dashuo Kingdom, we will not be able to go home."

Yu Jing wanted to ask why they couldn't go home anymore, but Princess Yu held his hand and didn't let him ask any more.

Yu Jing still listened to his mother and concubine, they stood there, watching the layers of soil covering her body, Yu Jing knew that he was already an accomplice.

On this road, it was really difficult to have a clear conscience. Yu Jing was silent until he returned to the inn.

After a long time, he finally said, "Father, can you release Miss Shen? He has nothing to do with Mu Yao's death."

Now that the person has been buried, many clues will also disappear, and no one can reverse the case anymore.

"This king has his own plans for this matter." He said.

Yu Jing also realized that it was very late today, thinking to wait until tomorrow, so he turned and left.

The guards escorted the brothers of the Yu family into the cell. Shen Zhiyue woke up when she heard the movement, walked to the door to see who came, and someone was locked in.

They walked to the door of her cell and saluted respectfully: "Little madam."

She looked at the posture of these people, good guy, have you been arrested too, have you done what you told them?
"you."

Shen Zhiyue hates iron for being weak, and she could not count on them if she had known about this. She crossed her hands on her chest for these unreliable brothers.

Yu Cong said respectfully: "Little madam, there are still brothers guarding outside."

Shen Zhiyue turned her back, and waved her hands irritably, she couldn't see, they were so unreliable, probably because the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked, how could it be better as their subordinate, she held her forehead, and she no longer hugged anyone hope.

Their cell was far away from her, and Shen Zhiyue sat back in her seat and sighed: "Be mentally prepared, we may not be able to get out of this cell."

"It's me, not you." Ting Xuan comforted.

Based on her desire to reverse the case for them, if she could get out of here, he would definitely repay her.

She should have been able to stand by and watch this matter, and when the matter was over, she could return to the capital and her territory, but she was implicated in a cell.

"Bai Mingyu's life or death is uncertain, which means that my backer is gone. If they want to kill people to silence them, it's okay. I'm half a catty with you." Shen Zhiyue sat cross-legged, and slowly closed her eyes.

Because of what Tingxuan did to Mu Yao, King Yu wanted to kill him, but she did not go at the right time, I heard a lot, but it is also King Yu's family matter, it is still a scandal.She guessed it was really dead this time.

"Have you got the handle on King Yu?" Ting Xuan got excited, his body twisted a little hard, involving the wound on his body, and coughed violently.

Seeing that he was about to cough up his lungs, Shen Zhiyue turned around and looked at him: "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

He had been sitting in one position before, and she didn't pay much attention to it. This time he turned his body sideways, and through the faint candlelight over him, he could see blood stains on his clothes.

Knowing that anyone who entered the cell would have to go through this test, but seeing it was still shocking. She knelt on the ground and asked concerned.

"How are you, are you okay? I'll call the doctor for you."

"I'm fine, I can't die, these people won't care about us." Ting Xuan stopped her from shouting, the key is that even if she shouted, it would only lead to a severe beating.

Shen Zhiyue listened to his voice obviously weak: "Are you really okay?"

"No problem, did you catch King Yu?"

"If so, do you think I will still meet you here? They must not confess me." Shen Zhiyue gave up struggling and sat back on her seat.

Ting Xuan looked discouraged, sitting on the ground, thinking that she had caught King Yu, so that they would all be saved.

He looked up in despair. It seemed that they really couldn't get out of here. He thought about how he would die, but he didn't expect to die like this.

The sky outside the cell gradually brightened, and Bian Jiangjun came to the cell early and asked the jailer to take the maid to the yamen.

The servant girl passed by her cell, looked at her quietly, then dragged the heavy chains, and walked forward step by step.

Shen Zhiyue looked at the shadow falling from her back, which dissipated little by little at the gate, and she thought to herself: It's just an interrogation, so I can come back again.

The servant girl arrived at the yamen and knelt on the ground. She looked up and saw Princess Yu, her pupils were obviously dilated, and she was surprised, but it was only for a moment, and she quickly covered it up.

General Bian said, "What do you want to say?"

"They killed Mu Yao, it has nothing to do with me."

"Then why did you run away afterwards? Why did you hide your knowledge of martial arts? The general asked the guards around the attic, and no one knew that you knew martial arts."

The servant girl knelt and straightened her body: "Sir, what's the problem in order to protect myself? I just want to survive, the Lord of the South Village bullied me, I swallowed my anger and just wanted to leave."

General Bian picked up the gavel and slammed it heavily on the table: "You are still full of lies. I have never seen you in Nanzhai. You only appeared when Mu Yao was trapped in the attic."

"Maybe I misremembered, but Master Nanzhai has dirty hands. Mu Yao and I just feel the same way. We hate Master Nanzhai together."

"Then we can only invite the Lord of the South Village to come."

Ting Xuan was carried up to the hall, he didn't even have the strength to kneel down, and the torture in the cell had been used on him all over, it was really hard for him to hold his breath.

General Bian asked, "Have you ever treated her lightly?"

Ting Xuan took a look and saw that it was the maid next to Mu Yao, and said excitedly: "Don't talk nonsense, when did I touch you? My lord, I'm like this now, whether I have done it or not, denying it is meaningless."

The servant girl burst into tears immediately: "I am not the only woman molested by Master Nanzhai. It is reasonable not to remember, but I still remember what you did to me."

Ting Xuan explained anxiously, affected the wound on his body, coughed violently, and managed to recover: "I have never touched any woman except Mu Yao. If touching your face can make you hate it, I will take the blame."

General Bian just felt that the servant girl was not telling the truth: "It seems that without torture, we will not be able to get the truth today."

They pinned her to the ground and beat her with sticks. Every time she groaned, her clothes were bleeding.

Concubine Yu's eyes drooped, she couldn't stand it anymore, she took a sip of tea and said, "Girl, you have family members, to be honest, maybe you still have a chance to meet them."

The servant girl was excited and wanted to rush forward, wanting to say something, but the stick fell again, and the pain caused her to temporarily lose her voice.
