Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 457 Falling into the Water and Taking Off Makeup (1)
"Hey! You're really smart," the officer's face changed, "Now you know how to hold the master's thigh! However, there are all witnesses and evidences for this matter. It's useless for the prince to come back, come!"

Two soldiers stepped forward, took out a piece of thick hemp rope and stepped forward, Yun Wanqin frowned, knowing that a trip to the torture chamber was inevitable, she brushed off her sleeves: "I will go! Don't come over."

The officer and soldier snorted and signaled the two to back down. Seeing Yun Wanqin walking towards the door, he glanced at the maidservants and pointed, "Who--the person who reported to Governor Liang is called Lu Qi'er? You Also go there, as a personal ID."

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on Lu Qi'er.

Lu Qi'er's face turned pale, and she lowered her head, as if she was the one who had been framed and wronged, silently following behind.

The punishment room in the Xingyuan is located in the school yard behind.

The black-tiled house with four-cornered cornices is surrounded by a fence, and the weapon rack is built in the lobby, which is majestic and gloomy, making people stand here with hairs.

In the hall of the punishment room, Governor Liang was sitting on top, staring at the girl below, with a calm expression, bland brows and eyes, standing in the center of the hall, not as if he was here for trial, but as if he was here to deliver a message, and he would be amazed. Pat: "Not kneeling yet!"

The girl below blinked her eyelashes: "I don't know why the slave is kneeling, can Governor Liang explain it clearly to the slave."

"Bold!" Governor Liang roared, pointing his hand: "Come here, suppress this sinful servant girl!"

The two soldiers who escorted Yun Wanqin had already tasted the power of this girl's film along the way, hesitated for a while, and were about to follow the adults' wishes, but heard the girl say: "Only those who are guilty can be called sinful servants. Is it too early to convict and call the maidservant a crime? It is fine to kneel down, but if it is found out that the maidservant did not make a mistake and someone makes a false accusation, how do you plan to answer the maidservant?"

Rather than speaking to the two soldiers, it is better to say this to Governor Liang.

The two soldiers' arms were stuck in the air, and they didn't know whether to fall or pull.

An adjutant dressed as a teacher stepped forward, leaned in to Governor Liang and said, "My lord, this girl is serving the prince after all. I heard that even Lord Shi is very polite to her, and this morning he even ordered Mrs. Wu to give her a hand. She added clothes and quilts, and sent a lot of warm things that are in short supply, so it can be seen that it is still very important..."

Governor Liang finally didn't force her to kneel again, but he was very angry: "You don't want to kneel now, but when you are convicted later, you can't kneel even if you want to! This officer knows that you have become a king on the prince's side." It's been a few days, but I didn't expect to have such courage! You don't want to say it? Okay! Then the official asks you, what outsider did you meet near the kitchen just now?"

The girl raised her face, as if she had never done anything wrong: "This servant has met with some common people who brought in vegetables."

It's really ambitious, and Governor Liang is surprised. The soldiers who came to this torture room, who didn't kneel and shout to the sky to beg first, where did this country girl come from? She probably hasn't seen the world, so I don't know how bad it is, so he sneered and said: "Okay, if you don't want to say it, I will ask someone to speak! Lu Qier, come here!"

Outside the three-inch threshold of the punishment room, Lu Qi'er folded his arms, trembling, hanging his head as usual, but his eyes were fixed on the inside, paying attention to every movement inside. The governor was furious, pre-emptively struck, and felt inexplicably happy. Seeing that Qing'er refused to admit it, Lu Qi'er's delicate eyebrows tightened again.

At this moment, hearing Governor Liang's summons, Lu Qi'er stepped into the door, bent his knees, and knelt down: "Servant Lu Qi'er, I pay my respects to the Governor."

"Retell what you just saw." Governor Liang looked at Lu Qi'er who had respectfully saluted as soon as he came in, and then looked at the girl who was still standing upright, and was even more angry.

Lu Qi'er glanced at the girl beside her, her cheeks were as frosty, although she didn't get angry, the coolness in her eyes was enough to make her hair stand on end as if being blown by the winter wind.

Her slender throat moved, and she said weakly: "Miss Qing'er, don't blame me. I am a person right now, and I dare not lie to you..." Then she turned to Governor Liang and said, "Responding to what my lord said, I will wait for half an hour for your servant to wait." When I was doing business in Xingyuan, I passed the kitchen and saw Miss Qing'er calling to stay in charge of the kitchen, saying that the lord ordered her to check the winter vegetables transported in the courtyard. The slave girl thought it was strange at the time, and Miss Qing'er had never mentioned this matter before, let's talk about it How could such logistics and food matters be left to Miss Qing'er? After thinking for a long time, the slaves followed, but saw several farmers standing in the open space, only Miss Qing'er and a middle-aged man with a brown bunt The young man disappeared, and after a while, seeing the man appear, he left first, and then Miss Qing'er came over, and sent him away after a few perfunctory words... The servant thought that something was wrong, so she ran to ask those people Farmers, they said, Miss Qing'er didn't check the winter vegetables carefully, and the slaves asked the brown bunt man if he was a farmer they knew. Several farmers said that they didn't recognize the man, and he just came in to deliver vegetables temporarily on behalf of a farmer. , the slaves were afraid that there would be trouble in this line, so they rushed to report to the lord..."

Governor Liang stared: "What else do you have to say?"

Yun Wanqin glanced at Lu Qi'er, and said to Governor Liang: "Your maidservant had a private conversation with the farmer who delivered the food, what can I say? If your lord and Miss Qi'er want to say that the farmer is a thief, then Just show the evidence, what about the peasants? Have you been caught? Did you torture anything?” If that person was caught, he would have been brought up by now, that is, he was caught, and the Yellow Turbans were arrested. Lu Ba had been trained so hard-spoken that she would not tell herself. She was not worried at all, but she didn't expect that Lu Qi'er disliked her so much that she stared at her so hard that she even reported herself.

"Good girl!" Governor Liang really convinced her, "You talk to that farmer in private as soon as you meet, don't say you two don't know each other! You are not a local, and you only had contact with the Yellow Turban Party in Yanyang ...Speak! Are you an insider sent by the Yellow Turban Party! Have you leaked something?"

Yun Wanqin was breathless and did not let go: "I just asked the farmer how to store vegetables better."

"Pretending to make excuses." Governor Liang slapped the wood for a moment, "My lord never ordered you to inspect the winter vegetables. I have never heard of it. I have also asked Mrs. Wu who is in charge, and several servants in the kitchen. No one listened to it." I said that the lord gave you this task, and you were the only one talking nonsense! You pretended to be the lord and secretly met with outsiders. How dare you say that there is no ghost? Double crime and punishment, come on! Put this girl down first , hit thirty boards, and see if she is still talking big!"

Lu Qi'er let out a small sigh of relief, stood up, and stepped aside.

Yun Wanqin glanced at the soldier who was approaching, her eyes were quiet but sharp, her straight body was graceful, which made the soldier startled slightly, at this time, everyone saw the girl and said: "Master Liang, the prince ordered you to go down." Things, I may not have told you everything, right? After inspecting the winter vegetables, the prince only explained it to the servants alone, and didn't tell anyone else, what's so strange?"
