Traveling through: I rely on space to raise the sick Wei Wang

Chapter 235 Scapegoat
"My lord was wronged, I am innocent, I did not lay hands on the prince..."

"Is it true that what I saw with my own eyes can be fake! Why, do you really think that what you have done is perfect?"

Chu Yu's eyes widened. Didn't Xuan Ming say that he was working in the study at that time? How could he see it?
"Chu Yu dare not, Chu Yu...Chu Yu..." Her eyes were flustered, not knowing how to respond.

Whether Su Yichen really saw her didn't want to know anymore, whether he was right or wrong, or whether it was all based on his words, it's not worth paying for his own life.

Suddenly, from the corner of her eye, she noticed Lika on the side, and Chu Yu had an idea: "I didn't do anything, it was Lika, it was Lika who pushed Xiao Shizi by mistake, and I stood close to her, so the prince misread, the prince You have to trust Chu Yu, it's really none of my business."

Lika looked at Chu Yu in disbelief when she heard the words: "Side concubine, you..."

"Bold maidservant, the paper can't contain the fire now, why don't you hurry up and plead guilty to the prince and pray for the prince's forgiveness."

Thinking that if Chu Yu suffered disaster because of this, and as a servant, he would lose the support of his master, and his life in the mansion would definitely be difficult in the future, so it would be better to preserve Chu Yu and take the overall situation into consideration.

Despite her reluctance, Lika finally chose to take all the faults on herself: "The servant pleaded guilty. It was the servant's mistake that caused the little prince to fall into the water. It has nothing to do with the side concubine. Please don't blame the side concubine."

"Since it happened because of you, why didn't you tell me when I asked you just now?"

"The incident happened so suddenly and it happened that there were very few people who saw it at the time. The servant thought that if he killed him and refused to admit it, he could escape, so he took the risk of telling a big lie... The servant knew that he was wrong, and I hope the prince will forgive me."

Su Yichen is not a fool, how could he not see that Lika is Chu Yu's scapegoat.He said coldly: "In other words, Chu Yu knew about this matter. You two, master and servant, shielded each other, and then beat and falsely accused the princess of marrying the prince. You are really brave."

Chu Yu explained with a guilty conscience: "I think that Lika has been serving me since she was a child, and she is also a maid from her natal family. She is my only relative. That's why I thought of protecting her. I just guessed that the princess was just acting out of the corner of her mouth for a while. Hurry up, it's not sincere. I hope the prince will spare Chu Yu because Chu Yu didn't mean it."

After a little thought, Su Yichen said: "Since it's a mouth that doesn't distinguish between black and white and turns right and wrong, then I will punish your mouth to taste the pain of flesh and blood, so that you can learn how to respect the princess. Come here, and slap Chu Yu on the spot." One hundred, locked in a cell for three days without food."

As soon as the words fell, two men came in from outside the door, both holding red wooden boards in their hands, one of them pinched Chu Yu's face, and "slapped" the board against his cheek.

"Crack, crack, crack..."

The crisp applause didn't stop until a hundred times had been played.

Chu Yu only felt that her cheeks were swollen and painful. If it wasn't for the support of her strong willpower, she would have fainted from the pain by now.

After finishing all this, Su Yichen looked at Lika who was kneeling on the ground and trembling: "As for you, drag down and die with a stick, and drive you out of the palace!"

Chu Yu's heart skipped a beat when she heard the words, not only because she was punished, but also because of Lika.

As she said, Lika was by her side from a young age, and it was absolutely impossible to say that she had no feelings at all, but now Lika was about to be killed.

"My servant knows I'm wrong, I beg the prince to spare my servant's life, side concubine, please help me, side concubine..."

Seeing Lika being dragged down, Chu Yu knelt and hugged Su Yichen's thighs. Because of the numbness and swelling on both sides of her mouth, she spoke a little vaguely: "My lord, Lika is not her brother." It's okay, and Xiao Xiezi is safe now, I beg the lord to forgive me and spare Lika from being punished..."

Who would have thought that Su Yichen would ignore it at all: "Today's situation, if this king hadn't come out to uphold justice, I'm afraid that the princess would not only have to bear the pain of his son's injury, but also bear the unwarranted charges because of your mouth. This king is just judging now You should be glad that I didn't take your life as well."

The last sentence made Chu Yu's back feel numb.

She knew that what Su Yichen said was true, and she also knew that he had already seen through everything. The reason why he didn't take her own life was because of the relationship between Gaochang and Dongyuan, so she couldn't be blatant.

Tears welled up in the corners of Chu Yu's eyes, and the pure white skirt inside was already wet with sweat, but the hot and sticky feeling made her calm down.She put away the emotions in her eyes, bowed her head in thanks and said: "What the prince said is true, thank you for your kindness."

Chu Yu was dragged down with a blank expression.

The rest of the people stood in the hall and did not dare to show their atmosphere. No one expected that things would turn out to such a degree, but it seemed very reasonable.

Su Yichen took a sip of tea expressionlessly, his eyes were always calm: "The princess is still young and doesn't understand the complexities of people's hearts, that's why some servants who don't know how to live and die dare to contradict and question. This king is going to set an example today, so that everyone Those villains who are ready to move and can't see the light will put away their irrational thoughts from now on, and next time, I won't have the leisure and elegance to listen to your sophistry!"

"Does everyone understand?"

Su Yichen stared straight ahead with cold and resolute eyes, but the people around felt that there were a thousand eyes staring at him.

Especially those slaves who don't pay attention to Xu Ruqing at all on weekdays. They used to think that the princess Xu Ruqing was easy-going and easy-going, so they treated her as perfunctory as they could. eyes.

A domestic dog cannot be a dog unless it is beaten. Su Yichen's words today reminded them that Xu Ruqing is his princess, and to dare to disrespect her is to provoke Wang Wei!There is only one end for provoking Wang Wei, and that is death!

All the people replied in unison: "Slaves, slaves and maidservants would like to follow the teachings of the prince."

After doing all this, Su Yichen turned around, only to be surprised to find that Xu Ruqing was long gone.

"Where's the princess?"

"The princess went back to the dormitory to take care of the little prince."

"Well, you push me over."

There was only one lamp left in the bedroom of Yelange at this time, and Xu Ruqing brought hot water to wipe Su Yian's body.

"Mother, mother..."

"Well, my mother is here, An'er is not afraid." Little Naibao sweated a lot on his forehead, and it looked like he was having a nightmare.Xu Ruqing gently wiped away the sweat for him, unable to hide the tiredness in his eyes.

At that time, Su Yian had a lot of water in his lungs. She was afraid that the child would have a fever at night, and in severe cases, it might cause pneumonia, so after returning from the front hall, she stayed by the bedside all the time, even though the child's body checks showed no signs of death. Nothing serious, she was still worried, for fear that she might have missed something.

Her heart was empty, and suddenly a heat source covered her back, and strong arms wrapped around her waist.
