Chapter 489: The Dark Web That Has Already Been Woven (Part )
Xiao Chengxuan naturally wouldn't admit it.

"Why should I admit to something I didn't do? Are you crazy? Even if everyone in the world is collaborating with the enemy, I can't be one of them!"

This accusation was more serious than all the previous charges. Xiao Chengxuan knew very well that if he did not insist on clarifying the matter, there would be no chance of turning things around!

"You actually believed in the despicable tricks used by a few scoundrels!" Xiao Chengxuan sneered, "It seems that the Dali Temple is full of incompetent people!"

Su Wei looked calm: "It's no use to provoke me. You'd better speak nicely. I don't have the final say in this case. The three judicial departments have jointly tried the case and found that you have a problem. Don't you have anything to explain?"

He patted the case file in his hand.

"The interrogation statement from the Ministry of Justice has also been delivered. The man who killed Xu Jie admitted that he was instructed by you."

"slander!"

Xiao Chengxuan became excited instantly, but his hands and feet were bound by shackles, and his desperate struggles only made heavy breaking sounds.

"This is all slander! I stay at Chengxin Lake every day and have never even left the main gate. The people I have met are even fewer! He said he was ordered by me? How can I be so powerful that I could order him to kill Xu Jie through so many guards? I have never even seen the person you are talking about!"

Su Wei looked at him coldly, as if he was watching a dull play.

That overly calm look made Xiao Chengxuan feel uneasy.

He couldn't describe the feeling, but he subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

Finally, his voice gradually faded away, and the cell fell into dead silence again.

The dead silence made Xiao Chengxuan feel a chill down his spine, as if something uncontrollable was about to happen.

Su Wei pointed at the case file.

"You know, there's another person's testimony here."

Xiao Chengxuan was stunned: "Who?!"

Su Wei: "Huang Kun."

Xiao Chengxuan didn't react for a moment: "Who are you talking about?"

Su Wei's eyes were as cold as a sword, and his words pierced straight into Xiao Chengxuan's ears.

"Your attendant at Lake Chengxin."

Xiao Chengxuan was struck by lightning.

Every word Su Wei said next was like a huge hammer hitting him hard!
"After you were placed under house arrest in Chengxin Lake, you managed to bribe him to replace the person serving you. He is your confidant and helps you communicate with the outside world. Is this true?"

Xiao Chengxuan finally realized something, his mind went blank, and his body began to shake violently uncontrollably.

"no no……"

His voice became extremely hoarse, and each syllable seemed to be squeezed out from his throat with difficulty.

Su Wei continued, "After you were imprisoned, Chengxin Lake was put under martial law, and no one was allowed to enter or leave at will. Huang Kun took some gold and silver and tried to sneak away through a small door, but was caught red-handed."

With every word he spoke, Xiao Chengxuan's face turned paler.

Unprecedented fear came over him and swallowed him up.

"After being arrested, he personally admitted that you were the one who ordered him to find someone to kill Xu Jie quietly in prison. After all, the dead have the tightest tongue."

"He's talking nonsense!"

Xiao Chengxuan suddenly interrupted him, his face quickly flushed with anger.
"I didn't do it! Everything he said is false! How can one-sided words be used as evidence?"

Su Wei: "In other words, you don't admit his accusation against you?"

"They are all fake, why should I admit it!"

Xiao Chengxuan's mind was in a mess.

He didn't know why Huang Kun betrayed him and threw such dirty water on his head!

"No! He would never say such a thing! You lied to me, you are trying to induce a confession! Isn't that right!" Su Wei narrowed his eyes: "How do you know that he wouldn't say such a thing? Do you trust him so much?"

"I--"

Xiao Chengxuan suddenly fell silent.

He finally realized that he had been pushed into the most dangerous situation - at this moment, he could not say anything.

Because Huang Kun was sent by his mother and was indeed responsible for helping him pass on the message. If he said it, it would be equivalent to admitting that the man was his confidant, and it would be difficult for him to clear himself of the other party's accusation.

But if he didn't say it, wouldn't he be letting these people nail the crime on his head? ?
Caught between a rock and a hard place, no matter what you do, things will go wrong!

Xiao Chengxuan clenched his fists tightly: "I want to see the emperor! I want to plead my case to him in person!"

He knew very well that the only one who could clear his name and save his life at this moment was that person!

Can--

"His Majesty will not see you." Su Wei's words were extremely cold, shattering his fantasy. "Once the case is closed, everything will be presented to His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty will decide whether you are right or wrong."

It will be too late by then!

It seemed as if all the strength in Xiao Chengxuan's body was drained away. He sat there slumped in despair, his eyes unfocused, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

What on earth went wrong?!

Ever since he was placed under house arrest in Chengxin Lake, a huge dark web has already been laid.

First, Huang Kun was replaced by him, then Xu Jie was killed, and then there were testimonies one after another...

Traps were set for him at every step!
And all of this is actually to support the jade pendant of the Nanhu swordsman - if he really had not committed treason and conspiracy, why would so many people testify against him?

All just to prove his guilt!

Thinking of this, Xiao Chengxuan felt a chill all over his body.

He finally realized one thing - someone betrayed him!
……

Prince Lie's Palace.

Xiao Chengqi still showed no signs of waking up.

Zhao Xuanping arrived just after noon.

To be precise: since Xiao Chengqi fell into a coma, he has never left Prince Lie's Palace.

After Ye Chutang came in the morning, he gave a few simple instructions and then went to the next room to catch up on his sleep.

Not long after, he woke up again and came to see Xiao Chengqi first.

"His Highness is fine as usual," Ye Chutang said, "I just gave him some medicine, but he vomited out most of it."

Zhao Xuanping frowned, "It's better than not being able to feed anything at all before. This proves that the recipe given by the hospital administrator is correct."

He is now very cautious, fearing that the situation that seemed to be getting better but was actually getting worse will happen again.

Ye Chutang nodded: "Doctor Zhao, don't worry too much. You only slept for two hours today. It's not a good idea to continue like this."

Zhao Xuanping sighed deeply.

"It's my incompetence. If I had noticed something was wrong with His Highness earlier, this wouldn't have happened."

He was fully responsible for Xiao Chengqi's condition, but after working so hard for so long, he got such a result.

If it weren't for your majesty's mercy, he would have lost his head long ago.

Ye Chutang's eyes swept across his face, not missing a single change, and spoke in a gentle voice:
"Maybe it's Fangzi's problem. You don't have to take all the responsibility on yourself."

She paused.

"Or maybe I misjudged it earlier and shouldn't have used that medicine."
