Become Cruel Gay Prince’s Concubine - C197
The Queen patted Princess Xiwei’s shoulder and comforted him:
“First figure out the sequence of events, then kill that assassin. It’s not too late …” He still has an accomplice. Mingyue, you need to be patient! ”
Grand Commandant Lin faced Old Emperor, he cupped his hands and said, “Your Majesty, this matter is extremely important. The assassin actually dared to injure the Eastern Palace Prince of my Ranqi on New Year’s Eve, so his nature is vile. Why don’t you… First, we have to bring the assassin up for questioning and see who did it, and what kind of conspiracy it is, then we can be at ease! ”
The General Baili also nodded his head, and said, “I agree with Grand Commandant Lin’s words, the Eastern Palace Crown Prince was ambushed. This matter… The Emperor cannot be underestimated!
“As the empress has said, we should first figure out the sequence of events before making our decision.”
Old Emperor was seated on a high seat.
His bony fingers tapped on the armrest of his chair.
After pondering for a moment, he said:
“Bring the assassin here, I want to interrogate him.”
Overlord since ancient times … Very little of the case itself.
If he interfered, the case would be immediately escalated to the highest case. The case was indeed serious.
and…
The nature of the crime was extremely bad, and the consequences for the perpetrator…
Even the lightest one will fall…” With one cut, the head fell to the ground.
Shen Hancheng picked a seat and sat down safely.
After watching this scene and then seeing another scene, tonight would be the end …
As expected …
Life is full of drama, that’s why … Life!
The assassin was escorted up by the guards of the crown prince’s residence.
His hair was messy and his clothes were loose and stained with blood …
He had obviously been beaten up.
But…
Everyone was startled, but it wasn’t because of this, but because…
This assassin …
It was actually a woman?!
How could this be …
It was a woman!
Princess Xiwei took the lead and did not put Old Emperor in his eyes at all.
“How dare you, dare to assassinate the current crown prince, say, do you have an accomplice?!” Otherwise, with only a mere weak girl like you, how could you kill Big Brother Crown Prince?! ”
The blood at the corner of the woman’s mouth was obvious.
She lowered her eyes and laughed softly when she heard his words. Her smile was cold … It was mixed with ridicule.
“How did he succeed? He wanted to dye me black and blue, so I took advantage of him, took off my clothes, and stabbed the dagger in his sleeve into his chest. Cough cough, it’s that simple, why would I need a helper?!”
The woman seemed to be … He had just been beaten up by someone.
His breathing was unstable, his voice was somewhat hoarse as he spoke …
Accompanied by Jinruo’s coughing.
“How dare you quibble! Which one of the beauties beside my big brother Crown Prince isn’t first class? How could they look favorably upon you?!”
Princess Xiwei slammed the table in anger, causing the tea on the table to sway.
Old Emperor glanced at Princess Xiwei, “Mingyue, do you want to interrogate them on my behalf?!”
Princess Xiwei immediately restrained his anger and lowered his head in grievance.
“This son does not dare, but this son is too excited, and has overstepped his boundaries. I hope that Royal Father will be happy and angry, and not make a fuss about it with this son …”
Seeing that Princess Xiwei had restrained his aura, Old Emperor looked away and looked towards the female assassin.
“Why are you trying to assassinate the crown prince? Do you know that this is not only a capital offense, but a crime that will affect your entire family?”
The female assassin broke into a bitter smile.
“The world is big. This humble daughter has already lost her family and friends. Even this humble daughter’s only family member was forced to die on the sickbed by the crown prince that you all spoke of. I am very proud to have killed him, a crown prince inferior to pigs and dogs!”
“How dare you!”
The empress’s face sank as she said coldly:
“No matter what, the crown prince is still the emperor … I personally gave the order to announce this to the world. How can you, the future king, allow this … “To be rude to him, someone, slap your mouth twenty times!”
Some wanted to step forward and execute the punishment.
Suddenly, there was a … A voice that was neither salty nor cold intruded into the crowd’s ears.
It stopped instantly … Everyone’s actions.
“There are too many wounds on her body. If you punish her again, are you sure you have the ability to communicate with ghosts?”
Shen Hancheng’s voice was not loud, nor was it soft. It was just right, it was enough to cause everyone in the hall to… He could hear everything clearly.
The Queen’s eyes flashed. Old Emperor waved his hand and suspended the punishment.
He glanced at the lazy Shen Hancheng sitting on the chair.
He then looked at the female assassin and asked:
“You said the crown prince …” Do you have any evidence to force your mother to her death? ”
The female assassin lowered her eyes and sneered, “He is the crown prince, I am just a …” What evidence did a lowly woman from the mortal world have? Cough cough … “Tell me, what evidence do I have?”
“Since you have no evidence …”
Old Emperor asked again, “Then how can I trust you?”
The female assassin seemed to be moved.
She didn’t know … The Old Emperor was so magnanimous.
In a situation where he didn’t know the truth, he actually didn’t blame her … The crown prince who injured him?!
This…
It was too strange.
Or …
He was just acting?
However …
Whatever his intentions, whatever his intentions…
In any case, she was definitely going to die, and on the bed …
Lying on the bed was the crown prince who was worse than pigs and dogs. She must expose all of his shameful deeds!
“To be entrusted or devoted to.”
It didn’t matter whether it was useful or not. At the very least, she had to … She deserved the help of the shop owner!
“If you want to prove it, then I truly do not have one. However, if you want to prove it, then I can say. A few days ago, my daughter’s mother, the Song family, was very ill. My daughter went to the streets to ask for medicine, while the east side of the city … There was a shop owner called the Xiao Medicine Shop. That day, she was a commoner … He invited that shop owner to his house as a witness for this humble girl! He wrote a prescription for my daughter, but he came in a hurry, so I don’t know if mother … What kind of medicine do you want? So I want my daughter to go to the store with him and get the medicine. This humble girl did not have that much money, but he said that he would wait for her to return the money slowly. He was a good man, so he wanted to save her. “Save him, but, cough cough cough cough …”
The female assassin was so excited that she coughed violently before calming down.
Princess Xiwei looked at her coldly, as if he was ridiculing her …
Thought… Was she lying or making up a story?!
The female assassin’s eyes were filled with grief and anguish.
A smile is not a smile… Crying was not a cry, but an expression that was hard to describe.
It was like, it was extremely painful and abnormal … He felt indignant and helpless.
Shen Hancheng waved his hand and said:
“Give her a cup of warm water to moisten her throat.”
“It’s the Seventh Prince.”
One of the guards passed a cup of warm water to the girl. The female assassin shifted her gaze away and no longer looked at the girl in front of her …
The aloof, cold and arrogant princess glanced at Shen Hancheng.
He didn’t drink the water either. Instead, he said,
“This humble girl has taken the medicine. On the way home, because I was on the way, I accidentally bumped into her …” The crown prince returned to his mansion with a carriage. I am deeply sorry, but the Crown Prince refused to forgive me. He even forced me into the carriage, ignoring my resistance … He was the crown prince, so there was no need for this woman to risk her life to keep him clean. She tried to calm him down, but this time, she had to retrieve the medicine, and her clothes were tattered. The shop owner was still a witness, waiting for this woman to retrieve the medicine … He ran back home and drank the medicine, but at this time, the crown prince actually sent people to forcefully bring the girl back to the crown prince’s residence. The mother who was on the sickbed stumbled and fell, step by step, to crawl to his feet, begging him to let the girl go, but … ”
General Baili could not bear it, he seemed to have guessed the rest.
Shen Hancheng’s gaze was unclear, and his gaze far away.
But Princess Xiwei looked like … As if unable to hold it in, he berated:
“You’re talking nonsense!”
The female assassin’s voice suddenly rose.
“Shut your mouth! Who are you and who am I? What kind of person is your crown prince brother?!” Not only is my mother old, she’s also gravely ill. She can’t even leave when she’s crawling on the ground, begging them to let me go. But what about them?! But on my mother’s hand, they fiercely stepped on her and fiercely kicked her! It caused my mother to bleed and even made her faint, yet they refused to stop. They were simply inhumane! My mother fainted and they even forced me to faint and carry me away. My mother died at their hands … When your big brother Crown Prince found out, he let bygones be bygones and said something … Don’t make that mistake next time. If you were me, would you take revenge, would you?! ”
Could it be?!
These three words had been shouted out by the female assassin in a fit of hysteria.
After shouting, the female assassin once again burst into a fit of fierce coughing.
The blood on his lips quickly faded, and in the next moment, it was dyed with a touch of bright red.
That was …
Blood-red!
Shen Hancheng glanced at the female assassin whose face was deathly pale. “Bring an imperial physician over here to prolong her life.”
The guards in the crown prince’s residence cupped their hands and followed the order.
The hall fell into silence, and a strange atmosphere lingered in the hall.
Old Emperor’s line of sight… Don’t know where.
Her eyes were cloudy, but she did not speak for a long time.
The empress seemed to be deep in thought. After a while, she said,
“Your Majesty, this woman’s words have a beginning and an end. How about we first call for someone to pass on her information to Doctor Xiao before asking more questions?”
Before the Old Emperor could reply, someone stepped forward and cupped his hands in a salute:
“Reporting to Emperor, this humble subject has a plan.”
Everyone looked over and saw that person wearing an elegant robe. His brows were furrowed … He exuded a calm aura.
This person rarely appears in the court, and… He was transferred by the Old Emperor to a local government official.
But…
How could the champion of the Spring Festival Gala be someone to be trifled with?
How could a mere fifth rank prefectural official possibly be buried? It only belonged to … His talent was overflowing!
Not long ago, this person was summoned back to the capital by a secret edict from the Old Emperor, and then …
It was then passed down by the empress into the palace with people from the royal family … New Year’s Eve.
He was precisely the top scholar for the written examination — Zhao Jin!
However, although he was rich in knowledge, he didn’t like to talk too much. Adding on …
Within the capital, there were his family and relatives. He repeatedly warned them, telling them to speak less …
Therefore, he remained silent within the hall.
Grand Commandant Lin glanced at Zhao Jin.
Zhao Jin continued to lower his head in a very humble manner.
Old Emperor sat up straight and asked:
“Zhao Aiqing, what do you want to say?”
“Reporting to the Emperor, this humble subject can testify to this woman’s words.”
Oh —!
The Old Emperor raised his eyebrows. Zhao Jin lowered his eyes and continued:
“The Xiao family’s medicine store in the east of the city is this humble subject’s cousin’s shop. Unfortunately, this humble subject’s … He had just paid his respects to his cousin, and when they were chatting, he had unintentionally mentioned it … The details of the matter. If this lady’s surname is Liu, then it is definitely related to this matter. ”
Old Emperor glanced at the female assassin, who let out a sigh, and said:
“My surname is Liu, ahem …” Her name is Shi Xi. If the Emperor does not believe her, you can investigate. ”
Receiving the answer, the Old Emperor frowned and said:
“Zhao Aiqing, continue.”
“That day, cousin cousin will take Miss Liu’s appearance and appearance … Painted in this humble subject’s eyes, I wanted this humble subject to pay more attention to the case of adultery in the capital. When this humble subject heard this, he began to investigate. Today … “We just found some clues and were about to follow it up, but this lady has …”
Naturally, Zhao Jin was smart enough to choose not to speak of the rest.
He cupped his hands together and said:
“In this humble subject’s residence, there are still clues related to this case. If Emperor does not trust this humble subject, he can send someone back to this subject’s residence to retrieve the evidence!”
Old Emperor’s face was gloomy, “Quick, bring it over.”
The guards replied quickly.
“Yes, your subordinate obeys.”
A glimmer flashed in Shen Fan’s eyes.
His fingers… He rubbed the cup lightly, then…
He glanced at Grand Commandant Lin, who was also looking at him.
Their gazes met in the air.
Shen Fan seemed to hesitate for a moment.
Just as he was about to stand up, he said something to the Old Emperor.
Shen Hancheng stood up and walked towards the female assassin.
For a moment, he stopped.
Shen Hancheng slowly squatted down. He looked straight into the female assassin’s eyes and said calmly:
“If what you say is true, then… Yet you gave your life for a scum of a crown prince, hurting yourself and ten thousand people without any regrets? ”
The female assassin mockingly curled her lips, “This humble girl doesn’t know, what other methods can I use to deal with him?!”
I’d rather… He had chosen to sacrifice his own life.
