The group's favorite little Fubao has become the most arrogant kid in the whole imperial city

Chapter 111 Pry his mouth open!

Sanping shook his head slightly at Zhao Chengning.

Come prepared, it's a bit troublesome.

This person was clearly lying with his eyes open, but they couldn't really do anything to him. This was the most hateful thing, and they were suddenly in a dead end.

Xihe seemed to be interested. Suddenly, his eyes turned and he asked, "Since you said so, do you have a witness? In other words, is there anyone who can prove that this is what General Xu...Xu told you? Only with a witness can I believe what you said. To prove your innocence, you need evidence. Am I right?"

The girl took a gamble that this person didn't know her relationship with Xu Qingcheng, to see if she could find out something.

"Yes! There are witnesses! You can ask them to come forward to testify, and then you will know that what I said is all true." The captain listed several names in a row. With each additional name he mentioned, Xu Qingcheng's expression became more gloomy.

"Oh, so that's it. Don't worry, I'll summon those people you mentioned right away, and after clearing them up, you'll be cleared of all charges." The little girl continued to deceive people without blushing or beating her heart. She turned to Zhao Chengning, raised her eyebrows, and made a mouth shape.

[Am I smart? ]

Zhao Chengning nodded with a smile, turned around and gave Zhao Jinyuan a look. Zhao Jinyuan stepped forward and knocked the man unconscious with a clean and neat chop.

"Why did the little princess think of asking someone?" After not seeing her for almost three months, Sanping had an even greater respect for the little princess.

"I was just imagining things." Xihe smiled profoundly, hiding his achievements and fame. "I thought my uncle had never spoken to anyone, but this person said he had, so he would definitely give false testimony for himself, and then it would be exposed. I'm also lucky to meet someone who is afraid of death and wants to leave a way out for himself. Good luck, good luck~"

"The princess is smart!" Sanping didn't ask any further questions and just let it go.

Liu Yuan nodded at Xihe, giving him a look that only the two of them could understand.

"Uncle, do you remember the people he just mentioned?" Zhao Chengning asked.

"Yes." Xu Qingcheng's brows had never relaxed. "And... one of them is my personal guard, and he often goes in and out with me."

Liu Yuan's face changed drastically, and he asked hurriedly: "Do you have a defense map..."

Xu Qingcheng raised his lips slightly, "Don't worry, I have kept the defense map with my father. If I want to see it, I will go to my father. No one else is allowed to enter the main hall, not even the guards."

The Duke of Zhenguo considered Tianshuo's defense map more important than his life. Not only the one in Xu Qingcheng's hand, but also the ones in other people's hands were placed with him. The Duke of Zhenguo himself was even more careful. When discussing matters and taking the map, no servants were allowed to be present, not even the old butler who had been with him for decades.

"That's good." Liu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and resumed his ungraceful and lazy sitting posture.

Sanping asked tentatively, "Then I will send someone to arrest him for interrogation?"

"Please do as you wish, sir." Xu Qingcheng naturally had no objection.

After getting Zhao Chengning's nod, Sanping asked Xiao Xiazi to go and get the person quietly, and Zhao Jinyuan also followed him out.

About half an hour later, Zhao Jinyuan came back and sat down next to Zhao Chengning without any courtesy.

Zhao Chengning nodded, asked everyone to sit down, and handed over a cup of tea.

As soon as Zhao Jinyuan sat down, Xihe found an opportunity to climb into his arms, "Second brother~"

"If I had known you would encounter so many things, I should have stayed there." Something happened in the villa, and Zhong Ting couldn't make up his mind, so he hurriedly sent someone to deliver a letter, and Zhao Jinyuan took over the handling of it on behalf of Zhao Chengning.

"It's okay. Look, I'm fine. I can jump and run." Xihe didn't want to make Zhao Jinyuan worry at all. Anyway, she had the space in her hands, so she could run out no matter how difficult it was.

Zhao Jinyuan sighed slightly, "You, you have to watch her closely next time and don't rush into anything. You should have told us from the beginning when you went to the Jiang family." Speaking of this, Zhao Jinyuan felt scared. The girl went there secretly without telling anyone. Later, when Liu Yuan told them the whole story, Zhao Jinyuan almost fainted.

Blowing up a secret room, you are so brave, you are not afraid of hurting yourself.

"I won't do that next time." Xihe buried her little head in Zhao Jinyuan's arms and rubbed it several times, "I promise!"

Zhao Jinyuan said a few more words and then stopped, compromising when the little girl seemed to be about to cry.

"How is it?" Zhao Chengning asked.

Zhao Jinyuan gave him a calming look and said, "The third brother is interrogating next door. It should be over soon."

"Third brother?" The little girl dug out her head and asked curiously, "Why is it the third brother? Where is General Zhong?"

Zhao Jinyuan and Zhao Chengning looked at each other, and after getting each other's consent, they slowly said: "This is what father meant. In addition to Minister Su and the eunuch, only the princes and princesses, as well as General Xu and General Liu can be present. No one else can."

The only exception is Xiao Xiazi, who only appeared here because Sanping guaranteed that there would be no problem.

Xihe was silent for a moment and didn't ask any more questions.

Don't use people with suspicion, don't use people who are suspicious.

After the spy appeared, Emperor Jingyuan no longer trusted anyone in the villa.

Perhaps he trusted no one except the princes and princesses and Su Zhongqian and Sanping whom he sent.

The reason why Xu Qingcheng and Liu Yuan were here was, one because he was the person involved, and the other probably because Su Zhongqian had protected him. However, he probably wasn't completely confident in these two people, as could be seen from the meaningful questions San Fangcai asked.

Another half incense stick of time passed, and Zhao Zhinan came over from the next room, covered in blood. He washed the blood off his hands with clean water beside him. The flash of cruelty in his eyes was a side of him that Xihe had never seen before.

Zhao Zhinan suddenly made eye contact with Xihe, and his usual nonchalant smile returned to his face, "Little Xihe, I'm here."

"Third brother~" Xihe called out obediently, but this time she did not jump into the other's arms like she did just now.

Zhao Zhinan smiled, found a seat and sat down.

"Did the results of the investigation come out?" Zhao Chengning asked.

Zhao Zhinan nodded. "Several people with low positions have been investigated. They are all small minions who have never seen the boss. But the one next to General Xu has been stubborn and may know more."

He glanced at the unconscious captain, kicked him in disgust, and continued, "Give me a few more days, and I will definitely be able to pry his mouth open!"

"Except for the one who didn't open his mouth, get rid of all the others." Zhao Chengning looked coldly at the lieutenant lying on the ground and said, "The key is still this lieutenant."

"Splash him to wake him up."

Xiao Xia Zi picked up the water beside him and poured it on him. The captain woke up slowly and when he looked up, he met Zhao Chengning's steady gaze.

Zhao Chengning was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and went straight to the point, "Still don't tell me who is behind this?"

The lieutenant was shaking violently, and said in a hushed voice: "I have already said it was General Xu. You want me to blame someone else, but my conscience cannot bear it, so I am sorry that I cannot obey your order."
