Prince’s Multifaceted Wife - C245
Although ZhiNing’s expression was calm, she was still shocked inwardly by Gu Ziming’s cold expression.
Several soldiers immediately stepped forward and held onto Bing’er and Zhining’s arms …
At this time, the two soldiers walked up to Zhining and Bing’er, squatting down and reaching out their hands to touch her legs.
Without waiting for the soldier to touch her legs, ZhiNing lifted her leg and viciously kicked the man squatting on the ground, wanting to touch her legs, then coldly shouted, “Scram!” Wanting to search her?
One by one, the soldier felt like he could be kicked to the ground by Zhining. He hurriedly crawled up from the ground and raised his hand, about to slap Zhining across the face. ZhiNing did not dodge, only glaring at the soldier. Her cold gaze made the soldier’s heart slightly tremble. His raised hand paused in midair for a long time, unable to strike ZhiNing’s face.
Seeing that the soldier’s small hand was about to touch her calf, Bing’er resisted the pain in her arm and moved her calf, avoiding the soldier’s hands. At the same time, she raised her head to look at Gu Ziming, who was emitting a cold aura, and suppressed the fear in her heart. Gu Ziming knew that she was a woman, so he believed that he would send someone else to search her body. If he was still human.
Gu Ziming’s expression changed slightly, then he ordered several soldiers, “Take them to the prison and lock them up.” He knew exactly what the two of them were doing here, so there was no need to search them. This room had already been searched countless times, so how could they possibly find evidence that they thought the old general had been framed?
“Let go, I’ll leave by myself.” Bing’er coldly said to the two soldiers standing behind her with a displeased look on her face. They had hurt her arm so much.
ZhiNing did not resist and allowed the two soldiers to hold her arm. She was very clear in her heart that even if she resisted, she would not be able to escape from here. Since she could not escape, there was no need for her to make unnecessary struggles. However, she still lifted her head and looked at Gu Ziming fearlessly. “Let us go, we’ll leave ourselves.” The ones being carried out were all criminals, while she was the only one being carried out. No one had ever carried her before! She didn’t commit a crime, so what right did he have to support her?
Gu Ziming looked coldly at Zhining, then waved his hand at several soldiers, instructing them, “Let them go.”
Hearing Gu Ziming’s order, the soldiers immediately released Bing’er and Zhining.
Bing’er rubbed her sore arms while glaring at the two soldiers standing behind her.
“Why aren’t you leaving?” The soldier standing behind Bing’er asked in a cold voice.
Bing-Er glared at the two soldiers and then walked out of the room. ZhiNing followed Bing’er out of the room. When she passed by Gu Ziming, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, turned around, and asked Gu Ziming, “How did you find us?”
Gu Ziming snorted coldly, but didn’t reply to Zhining. He lowered his eyes and looked at Zhining’s feet thoughtfully, then turned and left the room.
She saw that her feet were wearing ordinary man’s shoes while the soldiers were wearing soldier’s boots. The two were similar in appearance, and it was impossible for outsiders to immediately separate them out just by looking at them. However, Gu Ziming could tell with a single glance that the shoes on their feet were different from the soldiers’ shoes. ZhiNing secretly admired Gu Ziming, he truly deserved to be called the young general. With just a pair of shoes, he could tell that she and Bing’er were not real soldiers. This time, she was convinced of her defeat.
Bing’er and Zhining were locked up by the soldiers in the dark dungeon. The smell of mildew rose up to the sky, making people want to puke. Also, there was water everywhere, not even a place to sit.
Looking at the dark, damp, and stuffy dungeon, Bing’er couldn’t help but let out a long sigh. She sighed and said, “Sigh, in the past, it was us who went into the cell to look for others. Now, we actually went into the cell by ourselves. I wonder if anyone has come to see us! ”
ZhiNing thought Bing’er was probably more optimistic, “Of course, isn’t Sihan still outside?” She was very happy to have left Sihan and Lu Zhao in the Southern Prefecture. She believed that if they didn’t return to the Southern Prefecture tonight, Sihan and Lu Zhao would think of a way to get them out tomorrow morning. However, they didn’t know if they could make it in time to stop the young general from burying the old general’s corpse. If they couldn’t, then everything would be for naught!
“Actually, it doesn’t matter if we’re locked up in the prison. In any case, I was prepared to die if we don’t succeed. Who would’ve thought that we would be locked up here without even finding any evidence? It’s not worth it!” Bing-Er held the door of the cell with her feet to vent her dissatisfaction.
ZhiNing looked at Bing’er’s back and smiled, “That’s not for sure.” As she spoke, she took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to Bing’er.
The meaning behind Zhining’s words was that she had found valuable evidence? In other words, they didn’t get nothing. That’s great! Bing’er suddenly felt a little excited. As long as she could find valuable evidence, it would be worth it for her to be locked up in Gu Ziming’s cell!
Bing’er turned her head and looked at Zhining in surprise. “You found valuable evidence in such a short time?” However, when she saw the piece of Xuan paper in Zhining’s hand, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes and pout, “Is this your important evidence?” What did a small piece of paper represent?
ZhiNing carefully withdrew the paper back into her sleeve, “Yes, this is important evidence!”
Bing’er turned her head not looking at Zhining, and that little bit of excitement in her heart was instantly gone.
Looking at Bing’er’s expression, ZhiNing shook her head helplessly, “Don’t underestimate this small piece of Xuan paper.”
“It’s not small. Could it be that it has some other actions?” Bing’er asked Zhining without turning her head.
ZhiNing slowly walked to the door of the cell, leaned against it, crossed her arms over her chest, and smiled as she watched Bing’er kick the door. “Didn’t you notice that the material on this piece of paper is special?”
Bing’er stopped and looked back at Zhining, “What’s so special about it?” It’s not even a piece of paper. ”
ZhiNing looked at Bing’er and asked. Did you find any paper in the old general’s bookshelf that is of the same material as this one? ” She spent her days in the Southern Prefecture’s library, reading books. She was very familiar with all kinds of papers, but she had never seen paper made of this kind of fabric before.
Bing-Er was stunned for a moment, and then she thought back to the time when she was rummaging through the old general’s bookshelf. She frowned, “Show me that piece of paper again.”
ZhiNing handed a small piece of Xuan paper to Bing’er, who took it and looked at it carefully, then returned it to ZhiNing. “I don’t think there’s any paper of this material in the old general’s bookshelf.”
“That’s why.”
“So, this paper could have been brought to the old general’s room by someone else.” This was indeed a very important clue. If that piece of paper was really not the old general’s, then it was most likely brought by someone else, and if the old general had actually committed suicide and was killed by someone else, then this Xuan paper was most likely brought by the killer!
ZhiNing looked at Bing’er and smiled, “Not bad, not bad at all.”
“Tch!” Bing’er rolled her eyes.
