Chapter 105 The Truth
Bei Jinchuan looked at the maid lying on the ground with a gloomy tone.

"Do you know what crime should be for slandering important officials in the court?"

Under the horrified eyes of the maid, he paused every word.

"Behead! Cut off the tongue first, then destroy the limbs, and then feel the flow of blood in the cold and dark dungeon, and finally wait for death to come."

The emperor frowned and said lightly.

"King Qi!" The voice sounded like a warning.

Bei Jinchuan curled the corners of his lips indifferently, and the indifference in his eyes made people startled.

Bai Shuzhen felt a little helpless when he saw Bei Jinchuan's operation, my highness, please shut up, don't talk, let's be patient.

He was heartbroken, he was bitten back by Su Guogong and the others, saying that all previous efforts were wasted after being tortured.

That maid couldn't stand King Qi's terrifying intimidation, the last line of defense in her heart was broken, and she immediately kowtowed, her voice trembling.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I don't know anything. That night..." The maid looked away, biting her lower lip and still hesitating, not daring to look at Bei Siyang's ugly face.

Seeing this, Bai Shuzhen immediately seized the opportunity and pursued the victory.

"How was that night? If you tell the truth, it will save you from death."

Bai Ying was just an ordinary maid. She was found by King Qing that day, and she didn't think too much about it. She couldn't bear the pressure from King Qi, so she recruited immediately.

"That night, the sky was relatively dark, slave... slave only vaguely saw a person..."

In the end, she unconsciously lowered her voice.

Bei Siyang's face was livid, and he stood there gritting his teeth.

Bai Shuzhen frowned and asked sharply.

"Since it's getting dark, how can you be sure that it's Yibeihou?"

The maid looked up at King Qing with a guilty conscience, and then quickly lowered her head.

"Servant..."

I don't know what she thought of, and she confessed directly.

"You should die, my servant. I can't confirm that that person is Yibeihou. I mistakenly thought that person was Yibeihou because his figure resembled Yibeihou. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I am also anxious to arrest him." Seeing that the murderer who kidnapped the princess did not mean to slander Yi Beihou, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

The maid kowtowed non-stop, and her voice echoed in the hall, like slaps on Bei Siyang's face one after another. He felt a burning pain on his face, and it was more embarrassing.

Damn you bitch!Originally, when he found the maid, he let her bite the young man to death, so the true and false testimony, coupled with the banquet post he found from the young man's mansion, is simply solid evidence, even if the young man did not do it, He was also speechless.

Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Bai Ying let go.

Bei Si was full of yang, his chest heaved and his eyes were so angry that they were about to breathe fire.

Bai Shuzhen smiled in satisfaction. He saw the blood on the maid's forehead on the ground, with a smile in his eyes, but it was cold and without any warmth.

"Since even the maid beside Princess Yi'an is just guessing, it can't be taken as evidence. I'm afraid this matter will have to wait for Princess Yi'an to wake up before making any plans."

The king nodded in agreement.

"Then we will discuss this matter after Princess Yi'an wakes up."

Since Princess Yi'an was brought back by Baili Yue that day, she has been suffering from a high fever and is still in a coma.

When Baili Yue thought of the pale and fragile appearance of the little girl lying on the bed, her heart ached and her eyes turned cold.

He really wants to see who is so brave enough to take the princess away, so don't let him catch him, otherwise, he doesn't mind the little girl's suffering, so let him suffer a little bit!

Unwillingly, Bei Siyang wanted to make a final struggle.

"But father, the black market banquet card in Yibeihou's mansion..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Bai Shuzhen.

Bai Shuzhen seemed to have suddenly remembered that there was still this problem, and patted King Qing on the shoulder, kindly reminding him.

"His Royal Highness Qing, don't blame this humble official for talking too much. The people in your house should also find out the details. Don't follow the villain's way, and it would be bad if you made a joke in the end."

This sentence had a profound meaning, and Bei Siyang glared at him angrily.

"you…"

Bai Shuzhen has a certain amount of advance and retreat, and his etiquette is thoughtful.

"Of course, if His Highness King Qing is not willing to listen to Weichen's words, it can be regarded as not hearing. After all, Weichen also went out out of good intentions, and worried that His Highness will be deceived by villains."

Bei Siyang's words to the corner of his mouth were blocked in his throat, and he didn't say it, and he didn't say it, it was extremely uncomfortable.

Jiang Yu looked at the Minister of Rites, Bai Shuzhen, in surprise. To be honest, she remembered him from the palace banquet that day.

There was no other reason, but it was because Jiang Yu was surprised that Bai Shuzhen had offended Su Guogong in public for the unfavored King of Qi.

She was very surprised at the time. Logically speaking, King Qi was not favored and had been fighting outside all year round, while King Qing had always had a good reputation and was the most popular among civil and military officials.

Bai Shuzhen is a celebrity around His Majesty, and he should know His Majesty's thoughts best. There is no reason to offend King Qing, whom His Majesty loves, in order to protect a King Qi whom His Majesty doesn't like very much.

Jiang Yu understood now that Bai Shuzhen was probably someone close to King Qi long ago.

Unexpectedly, King Qi was able to win over the upstarts around the emperor when he was away fighting all the year round.

With this method, Bei Siyang has already lost a lot.

only…

Jiang Yu looked at everyone calmly, she was getting more and more incomprehensible about the situation in the imperial city.

Su Guogong ridiculed Bai Shuzhen in a strange way.

"Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites is really eloquent. A few words can change the direction of the matter. However, the Duke of the country is curious. Why did Master Bai get so close to Marquis Yibei?"

Bai Shuzhen waved his hands pretendingly, pretending to be modest.

"Su Guogong Miao praised, I just want to share the worries for His Majesty."

Su Guogong snorted coldly, his face smelled like someone owed him thousands of taels of silver.

The emperor also waved his hand appropriately.

"Okay, what Shang Shu said is also reasonable, King Qing, you also have to clean up the people in the house from time to time, so as not to give the villain an opportunity to take advantage of it."

Bei Siyang had no choice but to bow his head obediently to be taught.

"My son, please follow the teachings of the emperor."

He lowered his eyes, covering the shadows in his eyes.

Young master wood, let's wait and see!
The emperor was also tired. He had a headache from the troubles of the black market these days, and he never had a peaceful night's sleep.

"Okay, I also believe that this matter has nothing to do with Yi Beihou, so let's discuss it later. That maid, who slandered the court's important officials, should be thrown into prison."

The maid climbed to the ground in horror, and was pushed down by the guards expressionlessly.

The emperor waved.

"I'm tired, you all retreat."

Looking at His Majesty's appearance, he intended to call it a day, but the maid obviously had a problem. She was answering Bai Shuzhen's question, and subconsciously looked at King Qing's eyes. Jiang Yu believed that the Holy Majesty could not have seen it.

But His Majesty chose to stop here, did he want to keep King Qing?
Jiang Yu's downcast eyes began to feel cool.

It's like this again, but this time, it's not up to you.
