Chapter 373: House Arrest
Liu Hongren looked at Ning Zhao as he spoke, and asked in a deep voice, "Madam said, what the official said is false?" β
Ning Zhao also looked at him, paused, and then nodded, and said: "Borneol is a bitter cold medicine, and you really need to be cautious in dosage, if the dose is large, the cold will cause gastrointestinal discomfort, and it is not wrong to vomit and diarrhea." β
"Madame is outspoken, and the official admires it!"
Liu Hongren chuckled, took two steps closer to Ning Zhao, and asked, "So, Madam thinks, why is there a large dose of borneol in the diet of the crown prince and concubine?" β
"It's someone who pranks and unintentionally makes a mistake, and there are people who have resentment and deliberately retaliate and murder!" Liu Hongren's voice became louder and louder, and finally there was a taste of questioning.
"What does Lord Liu mean by this?"
Jin Yuan's face also sank, he got up and looked at Liu Hongren, who was a little shorter than him, and said coldly: "Why do you want to beat around the bush, do you mean that my wife has the intention to retaliate and murder?" β
"I didn't say that."
Liu Hongren slowly took a step back, smiled, and said, "But the boss Qin and the shopkeeper Liu in Liuliju have already been asked to ask separately, and I don't know if there is anything to ask now." β
"What happened to them?!" Ning Zhao stood up abruptly and glared at Liu Hongren angrily.
She can suffer grievances, and there will naturally be times when she is cleared, but the people around her, her friends, she does not want to be implicated by herself and let them suffer for no reason.
At the beginning of this matter, Ning Zhao felt that it was coming at him, and now that Liu Hongren has said so much, every sentence means that he wants to involve himself, and Ning Zhao has clearly affirmed it.
The person behind it is here for himself!
But she still doesn't quite understand, she knows the people she has offended, and this Liu Hongren is actually not very familiar with Ning Zhao at all.
In his previous life, he was a noble concubine, and he didn't need to fight for power, and he didn't need to be a little court lieutenant, and in this life, he had never heard Jin Yuan mention this court lieutenant Liu Hongren.
For Ning Zhao, this person really didn't know anything.
The crown prince and the king of Chu are vying for power, so naturally they have their own parties, but Ning Zhao has no way of knowing which faction this Liu Hongren belongs to.
However, now Ning Zhao has some guesses in his heart, but he is only a guess and he dare not be accurate, and in front of Liu Hongren, Ning Zhao can't ask Jin Yuan.
There are also Qin Xi and Liu Ji, these two have now been taken away by Liu Hongren, and they don't know how safe they are, Ning Zhao is very anxious.
Jin Yuan also frowned, looked at Liu Hongren, and said, "Lord Liu handled it impartially, I don't think he would use torture to deal with these ordinary people before the case was solved, right?" β
"Or perhaps, who is Lord Liu entrusted to bend into a move?" Jin Yuan asked faintly.
"Lord Jin, this is spewing blood?!"
Liu Hongren laughed angrily, snorted coldly, and said: "I have been promoted by my teacher until now, and I have been following the rules, Lord Jin will not want to exonerate Mrs. Zun, so he will drag the official into the water, if this is the case, he will be inferior." β
"Lord Liu's words are serious."
Jin Yuan waved his hand, but laughed, and said: "This official knows that Lord Liu will definitely investigate the case cautiously in order to give an explanation for his teacher, but if he wrongs a good person, he will let the real murderer go unpunished." β
Liu Hongren snorted lightly, turned his face away and did not speak.
Ning Zhao listened to it and understood that Liu Hongren was actually the protΓ©gΓ© of the Imperial Historian Chen, but the Imperial Historian Chen had a relationship with Ning Lian, and now he is also a member of the prince's party.
Could it be that the person behind this is Murong Cheng?!
But Murong Cheng is not in Kyoto now, if it is really him, how many years ago has this situation been laid out?
was willing to let the pregnant Ning Lian get into danger, and directly gave up Lord Chen's life!
But after thinking about it, Ning Zhao felt that it was wrong.
Although Murong Cheng is ruthless, he is a person who cherishes feathers, and it is not so easy to entrap the courtiers, on the one hand, he has to fight with the King of Chu, on the other hand, Murong Chengding is also the more ministers support the better, and he will definitely not give up the imperial history doctor who ranks as much as the third prince and the prime minister's cabinet so easily!
But if it wasn't him, who would it be?
Or, in this game, he was also implicated in Liuliju, but someone else laid out the game and wanted to break Murong Cheng's arm?
The more Ning Zhao thought about it, the more complicated it became, and with Qin Xi and Liu Ji in his heart, his heart was very confused, and he couldn't figure it out after all.
I had to ask again, "What happened to the two of them?" β
Liu Hongren looked at Ning Zhao, saw that her face was not safe, and the grievances he had suffered before were much better, and he chuckled: "This case is under investigation, and this official will naturally not treat the two of them, but it is just an ordinary interrogation of prisoners." β
"Prisoners?" Ning Zhao took a step forward and asked, "Since Lord Liu said that this case is still under investigation, where is the culprit?" β
"A suspect is also a prisoner." Liu Hongren raised his chin and replied, "What objection does Madame have?" β
"You ββ!"
"Don't be angry, ma'am."
Jin Yuan stopped Ning Zhao, raised his hand and patted Ning Zhao's back to appease, and then said to Liu Hongren: "Madame and I have no objection, so dare to ask Lord Liu, according to Lord Liu's meaning, this official and Mrs. are also suspects, but they also have to be taken into custody and wait for trial?" β
"Naturally, not."
Liu Hongren smiled and said: "The lord and the lady have ranks, how dare the official go beyond the bar before the case is decided, if this matter is really related to the lady and the lord, when I show the emperor, the emperor will naturally decide." β
"At this moment, I ask my wife to stay in the house for a few days for the time being, so that the official can inquire."
After Liu Hongren finished speaking, he looked at Jin Yuan, and unsurprisingly, met Jin Yuan's cold eyes and said with a smile: "As for the adults, please go back first, if the official has any questions and needs to ask the adults, he will naturally come to disturb them." β
"You want to put my lady under house arrest?"
Jin Yuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, and the cold air around his body surged wantonly.
Liu Hongren was not afraid, and said: "My lord's words are serious, but I want to ask your lady to be a guest in the house for a few days, and I will definitely let Neiko take care of Mrs. β
Feel relieved?
Jin Yuan is not at ease!
Liu Hongren did not leave Ning Zhao in three sentences, and his thoughts were clear, just to directly detain this matter to Ning Zhao.
No matter why he is like this, and who he wants, but Jin Yuan will definitely not let him succeed!
Jin Yuan paused, and was about to speak, but Ning Zhao pulled his sleeve, he looked down, Ning Zhao looked at his eyes, and then slowly shook his head.
Jin Yuan's brows furrowed even tighter, but he heard Ning Zhao say: "Since this is the case, then Lord Lao Liu will take care of it in the past few days." β
Ning Zhao agreed to stay, Liu Hongren was very satisfied, immediately laughed, and said, "This official will naturally not neglect Madame." β
"In that case, Lord Liu can allow me to send the adult out?" Ning Zhao asked.
Liu Hongren glanced at the two of them and said, "This is nature. β
Ning Zhao smiled at him, pulled Jin Yuan and walked out.
When he walked out of Liu Hongren's sight, Jin Yuan said helplessly and worriedly: "Madam knows that he is uneasy and kind, why do you want to stay?" β
