Your Majesty, please stop messing around.

Official office, in the lobby!

As Chen Hongsheng spoke, there was a brief silence.

Ouyang Zhen's expression changed slightly!

It seems that he did not expect that Chen Hongsheng would deny all crimes!

Ouyang Zhen's face was gloomy: "The suspect in prison has confessed, and it was at your instigation. Are you still going to resist and make excuses?"

Chen Hongsheng, who was dressed in a gray robe, stood in the lobby and looked at Ouyang Zhen calmly: "I have never ordered anyone to rob a prisoner. This matter is fair and reasonable... As for the identity of the person detained in the magistrate's prison, I don’t know.”

"The prefect wants to convict me, but it is difficult to convince the public with just the so-called confession. So many people are watching today. Since the prefect said that I am guilty, please provide evidence that can convince everyone!"

"Otherwise, your lord is slandering me out of thin air. Even if I am shattered to pieces, I will never be so unjustly accused!"

Chen Hongsheng's voice was not loud, but his tone was loud and clear, spreading throughout the hall and outside.

Silence all around!

At this moment, Chen Hongsheng's calm look and unhurried tone shocked many onlookers.

Many people who had already identified Chen Hongsheng as the suspect who ordered the prisoner robbery began to waver at this moment.

"Why does it sound like Mr. Chen is not a suspect? He is so calm and confident, and he doesn't seem to be pretending... Could he really be wronged?"

"It's really possible. I think it's probably Prince Lin who deliberately retaliated and joined forces with the government to slander Mr. Chen and pin the charge of prisoner robbery on Mr. Chen!"

"I have long said that Master Chen was wronged, but you still don't believe it. As the head of the Chen family, Master Chen is loved by many people, how could he do such a thing?!"

"The Prince Lin must have colluded with the government to frame him deliberately... I don't think they can produce any evidence at all!"

"..."

It must be said that Chen Hongsheng's expression at this moment was calm and calm, without any sign of guilt or panic. Coupled with his inherent calm temperament, many people began to have doubts and wavers at this moment.

In the hall, Ouyang Zhen's expression changed unpredictably.

He subconsciously glanced at Commander Lin on the left side of the hall.

At this moment, Lin Qingqing looked slightly cold. She still underestimated the mentality and calmness of the head of the Chen family, and she also underestimated Chen Hongsheng's methods!

Since Chen Hongsheng can say such things, it means that he is not afraid of the evidence investigated by the government at all.

This is indeed the case.

The government was indeed unable to prove that the suspects arrested that day were the same people who kidnapped the prisoners.

Even if the confessions of these suspects have been obtained, they are still the result of severe torture at the Prince's Palace. Under the harsh interrogation of Prince Lin's Mansion, these suspects confessed their purpose and identity as guards of the Chen family.

But now Chen Hongsheng's reaction made Lin Qingqing feel afraid.

His Highness had warned her to be careful.

Lin Qingqing was worried that if the suspects came to the court, would they suddenly retract their confessions?

More importantly, Lin Qingqing was even more suspicious, how could such a cautious person like Chen Hongsheng reveal such an obvious flaw so easily?

Are these suspects who confessed really the guards and slaves of the Chen family?

Lin Qingqing, who was originally confident, now had to be cautious. She looked at Ouyang Zhen in front of the hall and signaled.

After receiving the hint from Commander Lin's eyes, Ouyang Zhen's originally worried heart was slightly relieved, and then he looked at Chen Hongsheng in front of the hall, his eyes slightly darkened: "Mr. Chen is really eloquent and eloquent."

"However, this time you have committed a heinous crime. No matter how you try to quibble, it will be difficult to clear away the suspicion on you. Since Mr. Chen will not shed tears without seeing the coffin, I will help you!"

"Come here, bring up the death row prisoner Chen Junru!"

As soon as Ouyang Zhen finished speaking, jailers soon appeared in the lobby with Chen Junru on his left and right.

As Chen Junru appeared, there was another wave of discussion around him.

When many people saw that Chen Junru, the dandy prince who used to be aloof, arrogant and domineering, now looked so miserable and haggard, they couldn't help but feel happy!

If the government officials hadn't stopped him, many people would have wanted to go up and spit.

It is enough to show Chen Junru’s hateful image in the minds of the people!

At this moment, Chen Junru was in a panic, with fearful eyes. When he saw countless pairs of eyes staring at him in the lobby, he trembled suddenly, and his eyes became extremely frightened.

He was so ashamed and angry!

Until he saw the figure standing not far away from him again.

"Dad, dad..."

Chen Junru's eyes were filled with surprise at first, and then he was stunned: "Dad, why are you here?!"

Chen Hongsheng's eyes were calm and he didn't speak.

Chen Junru wanted to say something else, but suddenly a sound of panic sounded in his ears, and he trembled suddenly. Subconsciously, he raised his head and met Ouyang Zhen's cold questioning eyes.

"Chen Junru, if I ask you, you must tell the truth. If there is any fraud, don't blame me for being rude!"

Ouyang Zhen stared at him: "I want to ask you, who kidnapped you in Linjiang City that day? And where did they kidnap you?"

Chen Junru's heart was shaken, as if he realized something, his eyes widened slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to turn his head to look at Chen Hongsheng next to him.

But he held back again!

He gritted his teeth and said, "I, I don't know..."

"Of course, it was a group of men in black who captured me at that time... They all had their faces covered, wore strange clothes, and spoke strange and incomprehensible words..."

"After they took me away, they locked me up outside the city... I was knocked unconscious by them, and I don't know what happened afterwards..."

Chen Junru's words made the hall silent for a moment.

Ouyang Zhen's face suddenly changed.

It's bad!

This kid didn't say that before!

As if realizing something, Ouyang Zhen suddenly looked at Chen Hongsheng. But he saw that Chen Hongsheng was already standing in the hall, his expression was normal, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

"A man in black? Masked, speaking incomprehensible words? Isn't this talking about the followers of the Tianshen Religion?"

"It turns out that the remnants of the Tianshen Religion really took him away, and it has nothing to do with the Chen family!"

"That's hard to say, what if the Chen family colluded with the Tianshen Religion?"

"But didn't the government say that it was the Chen family who did it? Now Chen Junru said that the Tianshen Religion robbed him... Who is lying?"

"..."

Chen Junru's words immediately made the hall explode!

Ouyang Zhen's face turned ugly. When he heard Chen Junru talk about the Tianshen Sect, he realized that things were getting out of control. He also instantly understood Chen Hongsheng's purpose... Chen Hongsheng wanted to confuse this matter!

The evidence in front of him now shows that Chen Hongsheng cannot clear his suspicion. But the government office does not have enough evidence to prove that all this is related to Chen Hongsheng!

In this way, this case cannot be easily concluded.

And this is also Chen Hongsheng's purpose.

Realizing this, Ouyang Zhen's face changed again and again. Today he has completely offended Chen Hongsheng and the Chen family. If he cannot get rid of Chen Hongsheng today, there will be endless troubles in the future.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Zhen's heart sank suddenly.

He stared at Chen Junru: "Are you sure that it was a group of men in black who kidnapped you?!"

Chen Junru looked terrified, and his voice trembled: "No, that's right..."

"When the government caught you that day, what were the origins of those people around you who escorted you out of Linjiang City?"

"I, I don't know..."

Chen Junru's face turned pale, and he insisted: "I was kidnapped by those men in black and then I fainted. When I woke up, I met them... Then, then your government officials came..."

"What do you mean by escape from Linjiang City? I, I don't know..."

Chen Junru insisted that he knew nothing.

Ouyang Zhen frowned even more, and his face was gloomy. He knew that Chen Junru must have been instructed by someone!

At the moment, the situation might be a little bad...

As long as Chen Junru insisted that the people who kidnapped him were the remnants of the Tianshen Sect, then Chen Hongsheng's charges would be cleared.

Unless...

"My Lord Prefect!"

At this time, Chen Hongsheng, who had not spoken, spoke again: "From my son's description, the group of black-clad men who kidnapped him are clearly the remnants of the Tianshen Cult who have recently appeared near Linjiang City!"

"That day, many people in Linjiang City also saw with their own eyes that the murderer who kidnapped my son was indeed the remnant of the Tianshen Cult. Now the prefect insists that this was done by me, Chen. It's not right to lie so blatantly, right?!"

Chen Hongsheng's tone was neither hurried nor slow, but the sense of oppression was full.

As he spoke slowly, many people and children of noble families not far behind him responded one after another!

Ouyang Zhen was anxious. He didn't expect things to evolve to this point. At this moment, he was already a little panicked. He could only look at Commander Lin not far away for help.

Lin Qingqing, who had been silent all this time, finally stepped forward and asked in a cold voice: "Master Chen, are you sure that the person who kidnapped Chen Junru that day was the remnant of the Tianshen Sect, not Master Chen?"

Chen Hongsheng raised his eyes and stared at Lin Qingqing who suddenly walked out, his expression normal: "Countless people saw it with their own eyes that day, this is well known!"

"Really?"

Lin Qingqing suddenly sneered: "I have two people I want Master Chen to see!"

Chen Hongsheng frowned slightly, and heard Lin Qingqing coldly ordered: "Bring the people up!"

Soon, two guards from the Linwang Mansion escorted two prisoners tied with chains into the hall.

When Chen Hongsheng's eyes fell on the two people, his eyes moved slightly.

In the sight of everyone, two prisoners in black robes appeared, their bodies were in a mess and covered with blood. Both of them were chained tightly.

The two prisoners wore strange black robes with strange patterns embroidered on them, and their style was incompatible with the people of Linzhou. More importantly, the appearance of these two people... is completely similar to the appearance of the people in southern Xinjiang? !

This is the remnant of the Tianshen Sect? !

Lin Qingqing glanced at the two coldly: "Master Chen, do you know the identity of these two people?"

Chen Hongsheng looked at the two calmly: "Remnants of the Tianshen Sect?"

"Yes, these two are the two young guardians of the Tianshen Sect. They were captured by my Lin Wang Mansion a few days ago."

As he said, Lin Qingqing glanced at the two coldly and pointed at Chen Junru beside him: "I ask you, was he kidnapped by the remnants of your Tianshen Sect before?"

At this moment, the two looked embarrassed, with a little fear and terror in their eyes. Obviously, they suffered a lot when they fell into the Lin Wang Mansion.

Facing Lin Qingqing's questioning, one of them trembled, looked up at Chen Junru, and then shook his head: "We have never robbed anyone, let alone him!"

Lin Qingqing sneered: "Are you sure you are not lying?"

The little guardian trembled and said in fear: "I, we are just low-level followers of the Tianshen Sect, and we don't know this person, why would we rob him?"

"Besides... a year ago, our Tianshen Sect was almost wiped out by the Lin Wang Mansion. Now we are seriously injured and can't even hide low. How dare we rob the people of the Lin Wang Mansion openly..."

"..."

The people around were in turmoil again.

The two people in front of them, from their faces, can almost be determined to be the remnants of the Tianshen Sect.

And they denied that they had kidnapped Chen Junru, and their reasons were sufficient and well-founded... Why did they rob Chen Junru for no reason?

It seems a bit unreasonable to rob a death row prisoner!

When many people realized this, their eyes changed slightly when they looked at Chen Hongsheng.

So... Chen Hongsheng lied? !

The crowd was in turmoil and talked a lot. Lin Qingqing looked up and stared at Chen Hongsheng: "Master Chen, how do you explain?"

Chen Hongsheng's expression remained unchanged: "Chen doesn't need to explain. Since it wasn't the Tianshen Cult that kidnapped my son, it must be someone else. Even so, it can't prove that it has anything to do with Chen at this time!"

Lin Qingqing sneered: "At this point, Master Chen still doesn't intend to admit it?"

Chen Hongsheng said calmly: "Chen has never done it, how can I admit it?"

"It seems that you won't cry until you see the coffin."

Lin Qingqing obviously lost her patience. She said coldly: "All this is just directed and acted by you. You ordered people to pretend to be the remnants of the Tianshen Cult to kidnap Chen Junru, intending to blame the Tianshen Cult. You also tried to send Chen Junru away from Linzhou, without anyone knowing..."

"But you didn't expect , my prince has seen through your conspiracy! Recapture Chen Junru before you try to send him away..."

Speaking of this, Lin Qingqing paused, her eyes cold: "Chen Hongsheng, three days ago you secretly went out of the city to see Chen Junru, right?"

Chen Hongsheng's expression changed slightly, and then he recovered and said calmly: "Commander Lin, as the commander of the guards of the Linwang Mansion, now slanders Chen with one-sided words, is it appropriate?"

"One-sided words?"

Lin Qingqing sneered: "Chen Hongsheng, you don't think that my prince didn't expect this step, right?"

"Aren't you curious why my prince knew Chen Junru's whereabouts and sent us to capture him? !"

Lin Qingqing's words finally made Chen Hongsheng's face change slightly. He stared at Lin Qingqing and said in a low voice: "Who is it? !"

"It's me!"

Just then, a voice suddenly sounded from behind Chen Hongsheng.

The words were clear and full of energy.

Hearing this voice, Chen Hongsheng turned his head suddenly. The next second, his face suddenly turned gloomy.

Shocked, unbelievable!

He saw the person he least wanted to see!

"Is it you?!"
