Chapter 488: The Second Witness
Prime Minister Song retorted sharply, pointing at the black-clothed dead man who had been tortured by pain on the ground and scolded again and again, but unfortunately there was no reaction to the opposite, Chu Yuan made a look, and the guards behind him stepped forward to investigate, and only after probing his snort did he say, "Please forgive His Royal Highness the Prince, this person has no breath." ”
"What!" This time, Prime Minister Song was really panicked, and he only realized at this moment that it was Chu Yuan who deliberately did it in front of him, and only let this dead man say that the Song family was the mastermind, so there was no need for other accidents, and death without proof was the least accidental.
It's just that the matter has come to this, he has no way at all, the dead man said three words of Miss Song before he died, just with these, he had a bad premonition in his heart, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this person is simply talking nonsense, he must be a name that is said nonsense under punishment, where can he make a number, if he said that the little girl instructed him to do it, then how to implement it, and what kind of poison is used?" ”
"Prime Minister Song Cheng is a bit of a strong man, he is dead, how else can he explain these things?" Chu Yuan sneered, asked the corpse to be pulled down, and turned to look at Prime Minister Song Chengdao.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, what Prime Minister Song Cheng said is not unreasonable, just relying on a few vague words from a dead man, he wants to convict the second lady of Qi, but it is too rash." Chu Ze immediately spoke, not letting go of this flaw, Chu Yuan wanted to use the words of this dead man of the Song family to convict, knowing that he would not get more useful information from the mouth of the dead man, as long as he spit out the Song family, he would be killed immediately, but he was too anxious.
Chu Ze felt that this was a good opportunity to turn the situation around, so he continued, "Besides. The dead are naturally extremely loyal to the master's family, if they easily confide in the name of the master, then what is the point of them? If as usual. The dead man should have committed suicide before he was arrested. ”
"What does the Third Emperor Brother mean is that the human witness brought by this king is fake?" Chu Yuan's face sank, and he looked at Chu Ze's eyes and did not show weakness.
Chu Ze saw that he was angry, and hurriedly got up and said, "Don't dare, the minister is just talking about common sense on the matter, but there will be exceptions, but this person is a dead man." The martial arts are strong, but they can't withstand this punishment, and they are really a little weak. ”
"The Third Emperor Brother is really observant. However, he was indeed going to commit suicide when he was discovered, and he was stopped by the king's people in time, and they naturally had extraordinary endurance. But the method of punishment was one of the most powerful ways to interrogate the prisoner. Man cannot make up lies under severe pain, and what he says cannot be false. ”
Chu Yuan also knew that he was anxious for a while, and gave the other party a chance to take advantage of it, but his expression was still calm, "And the other things that Prime Minister Song asked should naturally be answered by the second lady, what means were used, and what kind of poison was given?" ”
"I didn't ...... Done! Not me! It's really not me! Song Junyao desperately grabbed Yan'er's hand. Regardless of the fact that the other party has been pinched with blood marks, he still repeats himself and repeats himself, "Please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be clear." I didn't do it! That man is talking nonsense, what enmity do I have against him, and he wants to frame me like this! ”
"Don't worry, the second lady, please take a seat, this king will definitely not wronged the second lady in this matter, but," Chu Yuan stretched out his hand and led forward, motioning for Song Junyao to sit back on the seat, but did not speak to her, but looked at Prime Minister Song "Prime Minister Song, this king also has a witness who can prove Ling Qianjin's guilt." ”
Prime Minister Song Cheng had just let go of his heart and mentioned it again, and before he could speak, Chu Yuan said, "Yan'er, tell me how your girl arranged for people to be poisoned." ”
"Swallow...... "......Song Junyao turned her head in disbelief and looked at the maid beside her, she had stayed by her side for more than ten years, she could be described as a first-class confidant, Song Junyao's things were passed on to those dead soldiers through Yan'er, if she betrayed, Song Junyao's eyes suddenly burned a few holes in her like a laser.
"Girl, slave and maid must save their lives...... It was really a last resort, and the slave was afraid of what the girl did...... The slave was afraid that the girl would be unhappy that day, so she killed the slave and the maid together! Let's go back, girl...... As long as the girl pleads guilty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will punish the girl lightly! ”
Yan'er's back was already weak, which made Song Junyao tremble even more, and as soon as her knees were weak, she knelt on the ground, kowtowed again and again, and after a while, she saw blood on her forehead.
"You! To do such a betrayal of the Lord! His Royal Highness the Prince, how can such a slave be trusted! "Prime Minister Song might as well have this change, Yan'er is the slave of the Song family, and she is the most knowledgeable, so she was sent to Song Junyao's side to accompany her since childhood, who would have thought that she would turn against the water at such a critical moment of life and death.
"Believe it or not, you have to wait until she finishes speaking!" Chu Yuan's eyebrows did not move, and motioned for Yan'er to answer his previous question, without investigating whether she betrayed the master.
"Girl...... The girl ordered a few days ago to stare at the girl beside Concubine Yu, because that girl was very similar to the late Mrs. Qi Hou, so the girl said that she couldn't let Hou Ye see her, and she must cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise Hou Ye would be hooked away again!
Today, when I heard the dead man report that the girl accompanied the jade concubine to Puji Temple to offer incense, my girl thought about it and gave the slave a bottle of medicine and let the dead man put it in her tea and food, but the slave and the maid were afraid and did not dare to do it, but the girl said that the medicine was very safe, and no one would see that she was poisoned, and threatened the slave and maid not to do what the girl told her, so she sold the slave and maid! ”
Yan'er trembled, but her words were clear, and there was more firmness in her eyes, Song Junyao seemed to be a different person since she hit the ghost, she became more and more moody, and extremely extreme, even a little thing can kill someone with a cane, although Yan'er is a confidant by her side, she can't be dissuaded at all, and she is affected from time to time.
"It was Second Lady Qi who asked you to contact the dead man and poison the woman next to Concubine Yu, but why was Concubine Jade also poisoned?" Chu Yuan's voice was slightly deep, with a hint of oppression.
"Yes...... That's when the news came from the Secret Guard...... said that Concubine Yu and the girl were together, and the tea was not good to arrange for separation, so the girl said that they were all poisoned. ”
Yan'er had made up her mind to not want Song Junyao to make mistakes again and again, she was protecting herself, but it was also to prevent Song Junyao from committing such crimes again and again, but the more she talked, the more she felt that there were two eyes behind her back, as if she was being targeted by some beast, which made her a little creepy.
There is no need to look back, she can probably guess who is standing in that position, except for Qi Ziyu, she will not have such emotions for this matter, but she doesn't know if this fierce emotion is for the late lady or for Song Junyao. (To be continued.) )
