Mad Concubine Proud of the World: Your Highness is the most beloved

Chapter 231

Realizing that Ru Meng would never leave, Ru Xin clenched her palms secretly, took a breath, lowered her eyes slightly to Yun Chen, knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "I can promise to help the Prime Minister identify the prefect, but I also have a request."

"You say so."

Ru Xin glanced at Ru Meng beside her, and said calmly: "Please promise Ru Xin, whether or not the Prime Minister can escape and leave Los Angeles this time, you will try your best to keep my sister alive. All the identification matters are not necessary. My sister will come forward, and I will do it alone."

After thinking for a while, Yun Chen nodded without hesitation, and said: "In that case, I promise you the truth." "

"Sister!" Rumeng turned her face away, looking at Ruxin in disbelief.

Ru Xin held her hand and smiled gently: "Sister, you are still a good girl. If you like him, he can take you out of Los Angeles. Even if you stay by his side just as a maid, it is better than staying here." powerful."

"But... I can also identify the prefect, why must it be you?" Rumeng said helplessly.

"Because, I'm already filthy, and it's time to wash off some dirty things for myself. Just think of it as giving me a chance to wash away my sins!" Ru Xin said softly.

"Sister..." Rumeng sobbed and leaned against Ruxin's arms, with tears in her eyes.

Yun Chen reminded: "A lot of things happened last night, and the prefect Zhao will soon attack the truth. The truth is waiting for this opportunity, and you will follow behind the truth later, just pretend that the truth has not said anything. .”

The two sisters nodded at the same time and stood up together wiping away their tears.

Zhao Taishou, who was busy writing a letter in the study, had just written the last word, a mansion soldier hurried around the corridor and ran to the door of the study, panting and shouting: "My lord, it's not good. Someone came, but he was still clinging to the imperial token. The subordinates really dare not stop him, and now that person has entered the mansion, my lord, what should I do!"

"Palace Token!"

Eunuch Zhao stood up and couldn't believe it: "The person who came out of the palace is the prince?"

The officer beside him shook his hand, looked at him in panic, and asked, "Master Taishou, what should we do? If His Royal Highness knows what we have done, we are all finished!"

"What are you panicking about!"

Eunuch Zhao glanced at him coldly: "So what about the prince, no one in Tianchen Kingdom doesn't know, the prince was weak at that time, when something happened to the prince, His Majesty asked him, and it was rumored that the prince died suddenly, who would know the truth?"

The subordinate officer's face paled in horror, and he quickly cupped his hands at Zhao Taishou, and said incoherently: "Master Taishou, this... this murder of the prince is a capital crime for punishing the nine clans. I will keep it absolutely secret, and will not reveal a word."

"Do you think this officer will let you leave?"

Zhao Taishou snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and a man in black rushed out from the screen of the study, with a cold light in his hand, a silver needle quickly hit the middle of the subordinate's forehead.

Before the subordinate officer had time to see the exposed eyes of the man in black, his eyes widened in horror, his body stiffened, and he fell back straight, without a trace of blood from the beginning to the end.

Zhao Taishou snorted coldly, raised his foot and kicked the subordinate officer's arm, curled the corner of his lips coldly, and said: "Do you think that this officer will let you reveal the secret?"

The mansion soldier standing at the door turned pale with fright, knelt down on the ground with a thud, lowered his head, not daring to look at the man in black, and leaned over tremblingly, saying: "My lord, what happened today will never be so small. Speak out and ask the adults to let the little one survive."

Zhao Taishou narrowed his eyes and said: "Of course I can spare you, I will clean up this place immediately, and I will go to meet that short-lived prince right now."

"Yes, the small one will be cleaned up immediately." The government soldier replied tremblingly.

Eunuch Zhao lowered his head and folded the letter paper on the table, put it in an envelope, handed it to the man in black, and said: "Go and make arrangements first, gather the killers, and get rid of the crown prince and Yunxiang in one fell swoop today. Arrange this letter quickly." sent to the old hands of Qi State."

"I understand." The man in black took the envelope and cupped his hands, turned around and left quickly.

After watching the man in black leave, Prefect Zhao heaved a sigh of relief and strode towards the front hall.

Accompanied by Ji Ziling and Luo Qing, Yu Xuanzhen entered the main hall of the prefect's mansion. As soon as he sat down, the prefect Zhao followed him in with a smile on his face, bowed and walked in front of Yu Xuanzhen, lifted his clothes and respectfully Kneeling down respectfully, bowing his head and saluting: "I pay my respects to your lord. I don't know your lord's sudden arrival. I'm far away from welcoming you. I hope your lord will forgive me."

Yu Xuanzhen's expression was calm, looking at the prefect Zhao who was kneeling on the ground, he didn't say to let him get up, and said in a low voice: "I am here this time to handle the case, and also to look for the Prime Minister. Yesterday, the Prime Minister was alone When I came to your prefect’s mansion, I have never returned to the inn, and I have not sent anyone to send a letter back, so I am really worried.”

"It turns out that my lord came to look for your lord, the prime minister, and it was because my subordinates didn't do their job well enough that they forgot to send you a message." Zhao Taishou said hehe.

Yu Xuanzhen smiled lightly, and said: "Then please ask Taishou Zhao to arrange someone to invite the Prime Minister here. At the same time, I will try the case in your prefect's yamen. I hope that it will be convenient for Zhao Taishou."

"My lord is too serious, I'll make arrangements for you now."

After thinking about it, Yu Xuanzhen never asked him to get up, and carefully raised his eyes and asked, "My lord, can you get up now?"

"Get up!" Yu Xuanzhen said casually.

Eunuch Zhao was apprehensive, stood up quickly, ordered someone to go to the yamen to make arrangements, and then went to the back garden wing to invite Yunchen himself.

Yu Xuanzhen simply got up too, and asked Ji Ziling with frowned eyebrows: "The soldiers and horses dispatched should have arrived!"

Ji Ziling nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, my lord, the soldiers and horses have already laid an ambush. As long as my subordinate gives an order, this Luocheng will definitely be under my master's control."

With a slight nod, Yu Xuanzhen breathed out: "Let's go!" He left the front hall, walked towards the gate of the mansion, and went directly to the prefect's yamen.

In less than a quarter of an hour, news of the opening of the prefect's yamen to hear cases spread throughout the city of Los Angeles. Outside the gates of the yamen, countless people gathered to watch, and it was extremely crowded.

Yu Xuanzhen sat in the main hall of the yamen, took a gavel and patted it, took a deep breath, and said to Ji Ziling, "Take someone!"

Ji Ziling clasped his fists, faced the outside of the hall, and said loudly: "The person who brought the lawsuit will go to the hall."

On the side of the yamen, a few men in dark gray clothes led a few ordinary-looking people into the lobby, and the lobby was filled with people kneeling for a while, kowtowing to Yu Xuanzhen: "The grass people have seen Master Qingtian. "

Yu Xuanzhen said: "Today, I will open the court. Please tell me all the facts of the case. If there is any grievance, I will make the decision for you."

A woman burst into tears immediately, and lay down on the ground, crying, "My lord, there is a woman who disappeared suddenly a few days ago. She came to the prefect's mansion to appeal for grievances, but she was driven away by the people in the yamen. Don't let the women see the prefect. I beg the imperial envoy to make the decision for the women and help me find my poor child!"
