Chapter 132
"stop!"

Just as the tongs were about to imprint, there was a deep shout, and at the same time something hit the jailer's wrist, causing him such pain that he immediately threw away the tongs with a bang.

"Who is so bold!" The old internal officer hurriedly shouted, "I don't know if the empress is here to interrogate the prisoner..."

Before he finished speaking, when he saw the person coming from behind, the old inner officer's legs softened, and he immediately knelt down and shouted tremblingly: "This old slave pays his respects to His Highness the Crown Prince."

Empress Xia also saw Di Yan walking towards her.

However, Di Yan's eyes did not set on her, the queen mother, but kept staring at Qin Qi who was supported on the iron pillar, and did not leave for a moment.

Seeing Qin Qi's appearance clearly, Di Yan felt as if his heart was pinched and pierced by something, the pain made the veins on his forehead throb.

Although Qin Qi had been injured before, it was not as serious as it is now, which is shocking.

Qin Qi's two palms were covered in blood, blurred into a ball, and he couldn't even tell where his fingers were at a glance.His clothes were ragged, his hair was messy, and he lowered his head feebly, as if he was supporting himself with the last bit of strength.

And just now, when Di Yan rushed to the prison, he saw the jailer pick up the tongs to Qin Qi.If Wei Ying hadn't received the order and hit the jailer's wrist in time, Qin Qi might have already received the punishment of being burned!

"My son, please greet the queen mother."

When he arrived in front of Empress Xia, Di Yan only hurriedly saluted, then said coldly to the jailer who was still suffering from pain, "Put this person down."

How could the jailer dare not follow, he quickly responded: "...Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Just as the jailer was about to put Qin Qi down, Empress Xia spoke with a sullen and majestic voice.

"The prisoner sent by this palace, without my order, who would dare to release him!"

Before hearing those rumors about Di Yan and Qin Qi, Empress Xia was still only half-believing.Just to prevent this kind of suspicion from spreading, as a mother and also as a queen, Xia must do something for her son.

But at this time, Di Yan rushed to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice without even changing the court clothes on her body, and turned a blind eye to her as the queen mother, only thinking about saving Qin Qi as soon as possible, Xia Shi knew that those rumors were not just suspicions.

That being the case, this Qin Qi must die!No one should want to insult her Yan'er, the reputation of the dignified prince!

Di Yan frowned, then turned to look at Xia Shi.

Just now, after discussing some important matters with his father, Di Yan was about to rush back to the Prince's Mansion when he heard the news that Cen'er fell off a horse and was injured and sent back to the palace.

Worried about Cen'er's safety, Di Yan couldn't help worrying about Qin Qi.

Cen'er was with Qin Qi, and Qin Qi was teaching her how to ride a horse.If Cen'er was injured and sent to the palace, the Empress Xia's mother would definitely ask about it, and she would also question Qin Qi.

No matter what Qin Qi did today, whether Cen'er's injury was related to him, I'm afraid he would not be able to escape the punishment of his mother.

What's more, Di Yan favors and even "prefers" Qin Qi, and everyone in the house knows about it.Although Di Yan had ordered that no one should talk about the affairs of the mansion outside, there was no guarantee that when Qin Qi was questioned by the queen mother, someone would mention this matter, which would make the queen even more angry.

Sure enough, just as Di Yan stepped into Di Cen's bedroom, when she visited Di Cen, she heard the maid beside her say that Qin Qi was also brought into the palace together.

He also said that the horse Cen'er was riding was suddenly startled for some reason, and ran wildly. In order to save the fifth princess, Qin Qi was dragged by the horse for tens of meters, and passed out due to injury.

This was Ms. Du's idea. Thinking of the excellent medical skills of the imperial physician in the palace, Qin Qi deserved to be taken good care of by the imperial physician since he had meritorious service in protecting the lord.
