Chapter 172 Breaking
"Princess, don't be sad, the prince just said he was angry."

Wuyi walked to Yuan Deyin's side, took out a handkerchief, and wiped her tears distressedly.

"No way, he doesn't have any kindness in his heart! No wonder the world says he is cruel and heartless. He must be so kind to the princess because of what he wants in his father!"

Yuan Deyin cried and shook his head, looking aggrieved and angry.

"Princess, it's all the servant's fault. If the servant hadn't casually mentioned Mrs. Hao's matter, you wouldn't have gotten into such a trouble with the prince."

Gan Qing shook her head, looking very annoyed.

"Gan Qing, don't think that way, the Princess has to thank you. If it wasn't for Mrs. Hao, how could the Princess know what Jun Yu is like!" Yuan Deyin gritted his teeth angrily.

She couldn't hear a single word Wuyi said.

In her eyes now, she was full of anger towards Jun Yu.

Suddenly at this time, a few soldiers walked by not far behind them.

Those little soldiers were too fascinated to talk about things, and they didn't even see their existence.

"Did you hear it just now? The voice from the prince's tent..."

"I've heard it all, and it's the first time I've realized that not everyone can bear the prince's anger!"

"That's right. You just entered the military camp, so you may not have heard of the horror of the prince. He was named a god of evil. When he was angry, it's not surprising that corpses littered the field."

"But, I don't understand. Isn't it said that he was very kind to the princess? But just now, he seemed to be angry with the princess."

"What do you know? My lord is a majestic God of War, how could he treat a young orphan girl well? It must be that the lord Ji was kind to him back then, and he had no choice but to adopt someone else's daughter. But this princess Deyin is too ignorant Anyway, she dared to provoke the prince, did she take herself too seriously?"

"That's right, I heard that because of Mrs. Hao's affairs, the prince was upset. Those few people's collusion with the enemy is a matter of iron and steel. Princess Deyin even went to refute the prince. The majesty of the prince is also something she can provoke. , isn’t this a death sentence?”

"It's all right now. The lord originally planned to behead Hao Jinglue and his family at noon tomorrow. Now the lord got angry and moved ahead of time. Their heads will fall to the ground tomorrow morning."

"It seems that the prince is really angry. I have grown up, and I have never seen anyone beheaded in the morning."

"..."

The sound was getting farther and farther away, and it could not be heard in the distance.

Wuyi saw their princess trembling all over, as if she was very angry.

She quickly comforted her: "Princess, don't think too much. They dare to talk nonsense behind their backs. This servant will find Wu Xi to punish them..."

"Stop, sister Wuyi, I'm a little hungry, go find me something to eat." Yuan Deyin said coldly.

Hearing her words, Wuyi hesitated for a while, and finally decided to help her find something to eat.

Seeing that Wuyi was gone, Gan Qing tentatively said, "Master, you didn't mean to send Wuyi away on purpose, did you?"

Yuan Deyin turned to look at Gan Qing, then said calmly: "That's right, the princess sent her away. She belongs to Jun Yu, so the princess can't trust her!"

"The princess..." Gan Qing's eyes became more probing.

Yuan Deyin suddenly grabbed Gan Qing's hand, and said in a serious tone: "Gan Qing, the people around my princess are all Jun Yu's people, and they are not worthy of trust. The only one left for this princess is you." , you will not betray the princess, right?"

Facing Shang Yuan Deyin's flustered eyes, Gan Qing was slightly happy in her heart.

But she didn't show any joy on her face, instead she had a very determined look.

She nodded firmly, and then said: "Princess, you are kind to the servant, how could the servant betray you?"

"However, princess, what should we do now? Didn't those people just say that Mrs. Hao's head will be chopped off tomorrow morning?"

Although Gan Qing was trying hard to pretend, Yuan Deyin could still hear her tone of urgency when she was probing this question.

Yuan Deyin withdrew his hand, and then said in a serious tone: "Since Uncle Nine Emperors wants to kill innocent people, then this princess must rescue innocent people. This princess is the daughter of my father, so I cannot give him shame!"

"The princess, what do you mean..." Gan Qing continued to probe.

"It's very simple. Tonight, let's go to the prison and find a way to rescue Mrs. Hao. But relying on the ability of the princess alone is not enough. Gan Qing, are you willing to take the risk to accompany the princess?"

Yuan Deyin looked at Gan Qing nervously, as if Gan Qing was her most trusted person now.

Gan Qing nodded quickly, and said solemnly: "Master, this slave is yours, no matter what you do, this slave will support you!"

"Well, let's think long-term and plan to save people tonight."

……

In the prison cell.

Hao Jinglue was in a mess and tied to a chair.

His hair was disheveled, and he didn't have the appearance that a magistrate should have at all.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he moved his fingers and looked up quickly.

As a result, Jun Yu walked in with a blank expression on his face.

He opened his mouth in a panic: "Lord Ninth, you have to trust the lower officials, the lower officials really did not collaborate with the enemy, nor did they commit corruption."

When Jun Yu heard his cries, he just glanced at him coldly.

He raised his hand, and Wu Xi behind him immediately ordered someone to bring out several boxes.

turn on.

Chests full of jewels and gold.

"Then tell me, what are the things found in your mansion?" Jun Yu asked coldly.

"My lord, I really didn't know that there was such a thing in my mansion. I was appreciated by Mr. Shen ten years ago, and I wholeheartedly followed him as an example. In the past ten years, I have worked diligently for the sake of the people. The common people are rich and powerful, but their lives have also improved visibly, and the lower officials can't wait to give them their salaries, so why are they still greedy for money?"

Hao Jinglue's words were sad, and there were tears in his eyes.

"Wuxi, continue." Jun Yu said indifferently.

Wu Xi continued to order people to bring other boxes.

This time, it actually contained tea and cloth.

"These are all produced in Jiangnan, and they are shipped from Haicheng to other countries. Hao Jinglue, these are the filial pieties of those rich businessmen in Jiangnan, but I remember that the taxes paid to the court from you every year are not much at all. !" Jun Yu's voice became more and more indifferent.

"My lord, no. In the past few years, the trade in Haicheng was indeed okay, but in recent years, the trade has decreased a lot for some reason, and the tax has not been high. The officials have been looking for reasons."

Hao Jinglue shook his head desperately, he really couldn't figure out why things turned out like this.

Soon, Wu Xi ordered two people from the Western Regions to be escorted up again.

"Hao Jinglue," Wu Xi kicked the two Western Regions men off, then looked at Hao Jinglue and said, "These two people were caught in the darkroom of your mansion, and they all confessed. It is the owner of the tiankeng, you and the people from the Western Regions conspired to build the tiankeng and privately manufacture weapons."

"The tiankeng was built by a lower official? How is it possible! Your lord, you have to be careful. Even if you give the lower official 1 courage, the lower official would not dare to do this."

Hao Jinglue kept shaking his head at Jun Yu.

These are serious crimes against the Nine Clans, and he couldn't bear any of them when they fell on him one by one.

"My lord, how can you say that you don't know us? We only work for you after receiving money from you and Prince Hatake."

The two people from the Western Regions were also crying.

They acted as if Hao Jinglue was unkind and ready to abandon them.

"You are talking nonsense, my lord has never seen you, how can I instruct you..."

Hao Jinglue was so angry that his face flushed red and he kept coughing.

But the two people from the Western Regions were not panicked either.

They hurriedly kowtowed to Jun Yu: "Regent of Chi Yan, we have evidence that Hao Jinglue instructed us."

"Take it out." Jun Yu said indifferently.

"Will you spare our lives after we take it out?" The two began to bargain with Jun Yu.

"Looking for death!" Wu Xi's face darkened, and he wanted to teach the two of them a lesson.

But Jun Yu quickly raised his hand to block his movement.

He opened his thin lips coldly, "Okay, this king will naturally, and spare your lives."

Seeing that Jun Yu agreed.

Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief, and quickly took out a letter from their bodies.

"This is the letter between Master Hao and our eldest prince, one of which was secretly hidden by us."

Wu Xi took the letter over to Jun Yu.

As soon as the letter was opened, Jun Yu's face darkened.

"Hao Jinglue, look at what you've done." Jun Yu threw the letter heavily on Hao Jinglue's face.

Then the letter fell to the ground.

When Hao Jing lowered his head slightly, he could see the contents of the letter.

It was "he" who told Qi De that the recent chaos in Chi Yan was a good opportunity to attack.

Everything in the tiankeng is normal, and the weapons in it will be sent to the Western Regions. As long as they collude, they will definitely be able to occupy Chiyan's northwest region.

At that time, "he" only needs a tower, and then he will be crowned king.

"This, this, this is not true, it is impossible..."

After Hao Jing scanned it briefly, he shook his head vigorously, anxiously denying it.

"Master Hao, we are all people who have seen your handwriting. The words on it are clearly written by you yourself. Also, there is your seal at the bottom. How do you argue?" Wu Xi asked coldly .

"No, it's not an official..." Hao Jinglue was so anxious that he was speechless.

"Hao Jinglue, you still want to quibble even now. Could it be that you still want to say that there is someone in this world whose handwriting is exactly like yours, and this person can still move your seal?" Wu Xi continued to speak indifferently.

"No……"

When Hao Jinglue heard Wu Xi's words, his head became hot, and he almost said "that's right".

In this world, there is indeed such a person.

Helping him with things won his heart and was the person he trusted the most.

He taught her to practice calligraphy, so that her calligraphy was exactly the same as his.

Moreover, she can come in and out of his study at will and know where he put his seal.

She is still in charge of the entire mansion. She knows exactly what dark rooms are in the mansion and who entered them.

However, after talking about half.

Hao Jinglue was trembling all over, his face was pale, and there was no blood at all.

He, who was anxious to deny it just now, seemed to be discouraged at this moment. He fell back on the chair in embarrassment, and then lowered his head.

He said in a tired tone: "Your Majesty, I'm frank. Everything is my fault. It's because I'm obsessed with ghosts and wants to be king. I've failed Mr. Shen and your trust. You should kill me, but, The rest of the Hao family are innocent, they don't know anything, please forgive them."

"It can be regarded as willing to confess, so tell me, what is the next plan for you and Qi Mu?" Jun Yu said quietly.

"I don't know about this, I don't know about it. We all take it one step at a time. It is estimated that the official has been arrested now, and Hatake has already made another plan. My lord, you should give the official a good time."

People who wanted to live just now now have "death" written on their faces.

"Want to die, it's not that simple. Wuxi, the punishment, this king will make his life worse than death."

Jun Yu's bone-chilling voice poured out his inner strength and spread throughout the prison.

Soon, heart-piercing roars could be heard throughout the prison, including those outside.
