Chapter 29 Talking to Chu Yue

General's House.

A servant from the Chu family brought in two handsome men.

"My lord, thank you sir for coming inside."

Seeing that the Xie Juan brothers came, Chu Yue couldn't help but feel nervous. A servant had already told the Xie family brothers to come to her, "I don't know why the eldest son and the second son are looking for me?"

The girl bowed and retreated after serving the tea.

Xie Zheng had a business-like attitude, "Miss Chu, I received a secret report that you witnessed Miss Lin's death. I just came here to ask Miss Chu a few questions."

Chu Yue was surprised, "Who said that? Didn't Miss Lin contract a serious disease and die suddenly?"

Xie Juan smiled, "That's what the Lin family said to the outside world. Miss Chu and Miss Lin are good friends and have known each other for many years. Does she have any serious illnesses? Do you not know?"

"Miss Chu doesn't need to pretend, everyone understands."

In other words, don't come here.

Xie Juan's words were so venomous and hit the nail on the head.

Chu Yue's face was gloomy, and she didn't like dealing with him very much, "On the day Wanru died, this lady didn't enter the palace, let alone in Chaohua Palace. Did Mr. Xie make a mistake?"

"Is there a mistake? I have to ask Miss Chu to go back to Dali Temple with us to cooperate with the investigation." Xie Zheng didn't say much and motioned for someone to take her away.

Chu Yue smiled and said, "I'm the eldest lady of the Chu family. You took me back to Dali Temple without evidence. If it proves that the matter was just a misunderstanding and ruined my reputation like this, can you afford to accompany me?"

The two little officers and soldiers were too frightened to act rashly.

They really don't have any evidence in Dali Temple, and before they came, the adults didn't say they wanted to arrest Miss Chu?

The two were so scared that sweat flowed out.

Xie Zheng, however, was calm and relaxed, his eyes squinted at Xie Juan.

It's all his bad idea, if Xie Zheng's style is not like this.

How to arrest people without evidence?

Just relying on the princess' words, it is too hasty to arrest people.

Don't let Chaohua be exposed.

Xie Zheng was puzzled, and it was up to his brother to make a move.

Chu Yue is the daughter of a general, not a civil servant, she is very courageous.

People who are not timid even when they enter the palace face saints, naturally they will not be afraid of them.

What's more, this is the General's Mansion, it might not be so easy for them to bring people back to Dali Temple.

Xie Juan looked at Chu Yue, and said, "Miss Chu is so excited, is it because you have a guilty conscience? If you don't know the reason, you are open and frank, and you are not afraid of the shadow, what's the problem with us going to Dali Temple?"

"You make excuses not to talk to our Dali Temple, this prince can think that you have a guilty conscience, which proves that what the informer said is true."

Chu Yue was a little afraid of Xie Juan. After all, this man killed people without blinking an eye. With his sharp eyes staring at him, she felt her hands and feet were cold while sitting on the chair, but she pretended to be calm: "Then who is the secret reporter you are talking about? He can bring the general Mansion, confront me, there is no need to go to Dali Temple."

"It's said to be a secret reporter. We have to protect such a kind person and expose her. Who will dare to secretly report those who do bad things?" Xie Juan chuckled.

Chu Yue's face was ugly, and her eyebrows and eyes were stained with displeasure. "My son, if you want to know how Miss Lin died, you should ask the eldest princess. She should know best when people died in her bedroom."

"Now someone has secretly reported that the cause of Lin Wanru's death is not simple. The cause of her death is related to you. Of course she is looking for you. What's the use of looking for the princess, she is the person involved."

"The princess was not the only one in Chaohua Palace that day. The princess didn't beat and scold Lin Wanru, she fell down and died by herself. It can be said that the cause of her death has nothing to do with the princess."

Chu Yue sneered, "But Miss Ben was not in Chaohua Palace that day, and I have evidence of my alibi. Isn't it funny to say that I know the cause of Lin Wanru's death?"

Xie Juan smiled, "Are you sure? Miss Chu should think it through before speaking. If there is no evidence, we will not come to you easily."

He was smiling, but his eyes were cold, and Chu Yue couldn't help but panic, "I... I really didn't enter the palace that day. If you don't believe me, you can check the records of entering the palace."

Seeing her evasive expression, she was a little nervous when speaking.

Xie Zheng's many years of experience in adjudicating cases knew that she did have a problem.

She is lying.

"Not entering the palace doesn't mean it has nothing to do with you. Lin Wanru met you before entering the palace, right? We suspect that she was poisoned."

"If Miss Chu knows something, tell the truth, otherwise don't blame me for taking you back to Dali Temple for interrogation."

"This matter is related to the safety of the princess, and the emperor attaches great importance to it. If the Chu family is involved, I am afraid that the general Chu will not be able to protect you." Xie Juan and Xie Zheng attacked from left to right, half threatening, pressing every step of the way.

Chu Yue couldn't stand it anymore, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and she was panting anxiously, "I... said, will you keep it secret for me?"
