Chapter 188
What made him angry was that Zhizhu actually lied to him, but what he was afraid of was that the truth would come to light. Even if he had ten heads, he would not be able to chop off the crime of murdering the prince.

Even if Shang Zhengyu was charged with this crime, if Huangfuyu was unhappy, the entire Shang family would definitely be implicated.

At this time, Shang Jiaren didn't feel any guilt towards Shang Zhengyu in his heart, all he was worried about would be implicating himself and Shang Chengyun.

"Master, do you really have the heart to watch Xiaoyu die in a wronged way?" Seeing that Shang Jiaren still had other thoughts, Li Yu couldn't help but speak angrily.

Hearing this, Shang Zhengyu sighed, "It's not a question of whether I can't bear it. Murdering the prince is a capital crime. What can I do if I'm just a prime minister?"

Li Yu was anxious when he heard this, and shook his head, "No, Xiao Yu didn't kill the fifth prince, she likes the fifth prince so much, how could she kill him, Xiao Yu must have been wronged, she——"

"Okay, whether she killed it or not, she brought the fifth prince out of the palace. If she didn't protect the fifth prince well, she will be punished with death." Before Li Yu could finish speaking, Shang Jiaren interrupted her impatiently. Then resolutely walked away.

Seeing Shang Jiaren's heartless back, Li Yu had no time to get angry, so he could only stand up and prepare to go to King Jing's Mansion.

"My lord is really not here, please go back." Seeing that Li Yu was still refusing to leave, the gatekeeper of Prince Jing's Mansion had no choice but to say again helplessly.

"Then where is he? Please tell me, I'll go find him." Dongfang Jingyao is the only one who can save Shang Zhengyu now, how could Li Yu give up.

"He went to Chen Country." It was not the two gatekeepers who answered Li Yu, but a cold female voice.

Seeing Situ Qingning who suddenly appeared at the door, Li Yu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Miss Situ, it's great that you are here."

Situ Qingning already knew the purpose of Li Yu's coming here. In fact, when she learned of Huangfuzhi's death, she was also very angry about the deceit, and even had the urge to explain everything in the past.

But when she thought that from now on, Dongfang Jingyao would be alone by her side, and maybe the two of them could live happily together, she suddenly calmed down. This might not be a good thing.

"Nurse, what do you want to see Jingyao?" Even though he knew Li Yu's purpose, Situ Qingning still pretended to be ignorant and asked.

Hearing this, Li Yu felt a little puzzled. Huangfuzhi's poisoning was such a big deal. It is logical that Situ Qingning could not have heard the news. Did she really not know or did it on purpose?
But at this moment, Li Yu had no time to think about it, and saving Shang Zhengyu was the most important thing, "Xiao Yu has been imprisoned, and I'm here to ask King Jing for help."

Situ Qingning nodded, and then said: "But Jing Yao has gone to Chen Country, and he probably won't be back for a while."

"Then what should we do? Miss can't wait any longer." Li Yu burst into tears as she spoke.

Situ Qingning sighed, and comforted her: "Nurse, don't be too anxious. I'll go and see Sister Zheng Yu later. I'll send someone to send a message to Jing Yao immediately, so that he can come back as soon as possible."

Seeing Situ Qingning's sincere expression, Li Yu instantly trusted her, nodded gratefully and said, "Well, I would like to ask Miss Situ for a favor."

"Nurse, tell me." Situ Qingning nodded.

"I want to go to the Concubine Devil's Sect. If King Jing doesn't come back, they may be able to help." Li Yu thought that even if the time comes to rob the prison, Shang Zhengyu must be rescued.
