The first daughter is poisonous, the lord goes to bed obediently

Chapter 114 Strange fragrance, forced confession by violence
"Cousin Xihe, welcome!" When Feng Xihe was brought into the temporary interrogation hut, she only heard a clear and powerful voice ringing in her ears. She looked along the source of the voice and saw Zhao Chu sitting Sitting on a big armchair, smiling like a spring breeze.

Beside Zhao Chu were Xia Heng who was dripping with cold sweat and Gu Jinnian who was arrogant.

Feng Xihe looked at Xia Heng, and said with a bright smile: "Shouldn't today's presiding officer be Xia Shangshu? Cousin Chu, why are you here to join in the fun, or are you here to hinder business affairs?"

"You're wrong, I'm here to do business." Zhao Chu replied: "Xi and cousin, don't you know that His Majesty asked Lord Shangshu to preside over this case, and I am the person in charge of the trial."

"Of course, it doesn't matter who is judging the case. The important thing is to let the truth out."

Emperor Changde asked Zhao Chu to be a supervisor?Feng Xihe's heart skipped a beat, she shook her head and sighed, "Brother Chu, then you are going to interrogate me, what are you sending someone to bring over the aunt and the second young lady from the Duke's mansion? Is there any question that I can't answer? Are you going to involve them?"

"It is necessary, very necessary." Zhao Chu snorted coldly, got up slowly from the armchair, walked up to Feng Xihe, stared at her closely and said, "They are the most important witnesses in this case, of course Need to be arraigned."

Feng Xihe took a step back, distanced himself from him, but stared at him without changing his face, and said sharply: "Qingyue has been staying in the mansion peacefully, even if it's because of Cousin Zhen's matter, , her mind is no longer sound, and the Duke's Mansion didn't directly ask your Zhao family to give an explanation."

"Now, you don't even let go of a girl who is driven crazy by you. You are really worthy of the family rules of benevolence, righteousness and morality engraved on the Zhao family's ancestral hall!"

After Zhao Chu heard this, he thought to himself, what the old lady Zhao said was true, Feng Xihe not only changed in appearance, but even his mind was different from before. This is not the same girl who had never believed in Yun Changyi before.

His heart couldn't help but ruthless, this girl must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise, it must be a threat to the Zhao family!
"Xi and cousin, if you want to talk about business affairs, please don't try to use benevolence, justice and morality to restrain us from handling the case. Besides, no one forced Miss Feng Er, it was her own wishful thinking and she went crazy, so you put the hat on the Zhao family He really wronged us."

The smile on Zhao Chu's face widened inch by inch, and then he said frankly: "Besides, there is a reason why they are summoned today. Just listen to me."

"First, just now, the blessing bells sent to the people by you and the princesses have been checked, and there is no problem. And the people they have contacted are fine, but the people who have been in contact with you are Something happened."

"Secondly, before you came, all palace officials who had touched the blessing bell had been interrogated. No poison was found on their bodies, and they had no motive to murder innocent people."

"Third, after someone is poisoned, you can quickly detoxify them. You have never known poison before. If you did not poison, how did you know how to detoxify?"

"So, all the evidence points to you, and the problem can only be yours!"

Feng Xihe listened to him very patiently, and then said: "Brother Chu, you are very logical, but have you ever thought that if I hadn't checked the poisoned person in time today, I'm afraid it would be true. People were killed."

"Am I stupid or am I tired of living? I have to make trouble for myself on such an important day. Since I poisoned them, why should I save them?"

"What's more, it was His Royal Highness the Second Prince who really treated them. I just helped him and sent people to Baoshantang to get the medicine."

Gu Jinnian watched by the side for so long, seeing that Feng Xihe dared to argue in a dignified manner at such a time, he couldn't help but angrily said: "You damn woman, you are dying, and you dare to quibble! Who knows you Do you want to play the role of the savior on purpose! Zhao Xiaohou, according to this palace, you can put her directly in prison!"

Yun Changyi has suffered so long in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he also wants to send Feng Xihe to experience it for a while!
"Third prince, wait a minute. Since it is a case, everything must be based on evidence. Only when the evidence is as solid as a mountain can she be convinced." After Zhao Chu said that, he made a gesture of invitation to Feng Xihe, "Xi and cousin, are you here now?" It doesn't matter if you don't want to admit it, please go out and wait for a while, and I'll invite you in after I finish interrogating Second Miss and Aunt Wanqiu."

The frost in Feng Xihe's eyes seemed to be getting thicker and thicker. She turned to look at Xia Heng who was silent, and asked, "Master Shang Shu, you are the presiding judge of this case, but are you going to sit on the sidelines?"

Xia Heng frowned, thought for a while and then said: "Miss Feng, facts speak louder than words, as long as the truth can be found out, it doesn't matter whoever interrogates."

When Emperor Changde ordered him to try the case, he felt that it was difficult. He had always been well aware of the grievances between the Feng and Zhao families, and no matter which party was offended, it would be detrimental to him.

Fortunately, Gu Jinnian recommended Zhao Chu to Emperor Changde in time to be the supervisor, and he was relieved.At present, his idea is not to get involved in this muddy water. As for what will happen to Feng Xihe, he will leave it to fate.

Moreover, he had sent Xia Haiyan away in advance, so he could guarantee that the Xia family would not be affected by this matter.

"Okay, I understand what Master Shangshu means." Feng Xihe looked away, turned around and left. Before leaving, she said coldly to Zhao Chu: "Everyone knows that Qingyue's embroidery is excellent. , even the Empress Dowager admired her a lot."

"I remember that the empress dowager asked Qingyue to make a cloak with a phoenix dancing for nine days before her [-]th birthday."

"Thank you for reminding me, I will pay attention to propriety." Zhao Chu nodded slightly, and ordered Feng Xihe to be sent out of the door with a faint smile.

And after Feng Xihe left, his eyes suddenly turned cold, and there was a faint hostility between his brows.

Aunt Wan Qiu and Feng Qingyue were imprisoned in the simple room next door. When Zhao Chu walked in, Aunt Wan Qiu and Feng Qingyue were both curled up in the corner.

In front of them, there are all kinds of punishment departments, and several iron tongs of different shapes placed in the charcoal basin have been burned red.

"Little Marquis, please let Qingyue go. If there is anything, I can take care of it alone. Qingyue is mentally incompetent and doesn't know anything." When Auntie Wanqiu saw Zhao Chu, she immediately panicked and was in a hurry He spread his arms wide and stood in front of Feng Qingyue.

Zhao Chu lifted up his robe, squatted down on one knee, and said with a sneer, "Of course this Marquis will let her go, Aunt Wanqiu, why did you forget that we agreed to be in-laws! Ben Hou's third younger brother wants to be raised by Baqiu?" The sedan chair, the Ming media is getting married and welcomes Second Miss Feng into the door."

Aunt Wan Qiu's face was full of fear, she shook her head again and again, and said, "No, no, no, Qingyue can't compete with Third Young Master Zhao."

"Aunt Wanqiu, why are you going back on your word? What you promised, I must do what you say." Zhao Chu's eyes flashed a trace of ruthlessness, and he stretched out his hand to pinch Feng Qingyue's chin forcefully, and asked: "Feng Qingyue Second Miss, Ben Hou asked you, did you help Feng Xihe sew the dress?"

Feng Qingyue felt uncomfortable being pinched, and couldn't help crying out in pain, but facing Zhao Chu's eyes that seemed to eat people, she said timidly, "Yes, it's me."

Zhao Chu increased the strength of his subordinates, and then asked: "Then what did Feng Xihe ask you to add in it to make that dress emit a strange fragrance?"

"Except for a little bit of Qiuhe's fragrance powder, there is nothing else." Feng Qingyue burst into tears of pain, and her words were vague, "Who are you? Let me go!"

As she said that, she timidly wanted to hide behind Aunt Wanqiu, "Mother, this man is so fierce, I'm so scared!"

However, as soon as she hid, Zhao Chu grabbed her by the skirt, dragged her over, and threw several officials.

"Second Miss Feng, it seems that you don't understand what Ben Hou said! A misbehaving little girl will suffer a lot."

When he finished speaking, he waved his hands, and several officials showed fierce expressions, grabbed Feng Qingyue's hair, covered her mouth, picked up a pair of iron tongs that were branded red, and stamped on Feng Qingyue's back. Down.

With a sound of "呲呲", there was a smell of flesh mixed with burnt clothing in the air. Feng Qingyue whimpered, frowned in pain, bowed her body, and crawled on the ground.

Zhao Chu watched it with great interest, and said with great interest: "Second Miss, don't worry, I won't hurt your hands. After you go out, you can still do embroidery for the Empress Dowager."

"Little Hou Ye, Qingyue's mind is weak, she really can't understand!" Auntie Wanqiu's heart felt like a knife was being twisted, a chill rose from the soles of her feet and rushed to her mind.

She crawled up to Zhao Chu, prostrated herself at his feet and begged, "Young Master, didn't you say that you want Third Young Master Zhao to marry her and become our in-laws? What if something happens to Qingyue?"

Zhao Chu didn't take it seriously, looked down at her proudly and said, "However, Ben Hou didn't say that we must marry people alive. If the second lady really has troubles because of Feng Xihe, the third brother still insists on finishing with her." **, will everyone in the world say that my Marquis of Wu'an's mansion is deeply affectionate, and that the Duke's mansion has treated concubines and concubines harshly?"

"Anyway, the third younger brother can still marry a wife who is well-matched in the future. The other party will only be moved by his true feelings, and will not care about a dead man."

Aunt Wanqiu's heart was so cold, her hands froze, and she just stayed where she was.

"However, Aunt Wanqiu, you don't have to worry too much. The second lady is mentally incompetent, so she can't understand Benhou's words. Benhou can understand. But you should be able to understand, right? If you can understand, it's okay." Zhao Chu coldly glanced at Aunt Wanqiu, seeing that Aunt Wanqiu was still frozen, and sighed, "Forget it, I feel that Auntie Wanqiu doesn't understand you either."

After finishing speaking, he made a gesture to several officials, and said: "Second Miss Feng's beauty is given to you, you should greet her well."

When the officials heard this, stares like hungry wolves appeared in their eyes, drooling, and walked towards Feng Qingyue step by step.

Aunt Wanqiu was startled, she rushed over like crazy, hugged Feng Qingyue in her arms, and hurriedly begged Zhao Chu for mercy, "Young Lord, I know, I know everything. I promise you, whatever you say is right." What?"

Zhao Chu finally showed a satisfied expression, "tsk tsk" sighed, "If you said that earlier, why would Second Miss have to suffer so much?"

Then, he walked over and whispered: "How about this, Ben Hou will teach you a set of rhetoric."
