Chapter 231: Suspicion of Anyone

At this moment, Li Wangzhen's every word was like a needle piercing Xilingyue's heart, and she almost used all her strength to grit her teeth and restrain herself from saying vicious words: "Have you demonstrated enough?" You're good to go. ”

"I'm not here to demonstrate." Li Wangzhen looked at the faint candle flame on the candlestick, "I want to help you." ”

"No need." Xiling Yue endured her grief and indignation, and her expression was stubborn, "I will think of it myself." ”

"The mastermind behind the scenes is scheming, and you can't get out of it alone." Li Wuzhen didn't want to say more, so he picked up the candlestick and said lightly, "Whether you agree or not, I will repair the book to him, and if this matter cannot be resolved, I will tell my uncle the truth." ”

Xi Lingyue looked up at her in surprise: "You actually saved me?" ”

"I'm not saving you, I'm saving myself." Li Wangzhen clinged to the candlestick and turned around and walked out, until he reached the door of the cell, and then continued, "If you die in Zhenhai, I can't explain to him." ”

She opened the door and walked out of the cell, and with a "squeak" the door slammed shut. Xiling Yue was too tired for the past two days, and although the dungeon was poorly furnished, she still slept very deeply, until dawn. Soon after she woke up, the small lattice on the cell door was opened, and a guard brought food and water in. Xu is Pei Xingli or Li Wangzhen explained in advance, the food is actually not bad, and the water is clear enough to eat. Xilingyue didn't know when the next meal would be, so she ate all the meals in one go, and was about to sort things out from beginning to end, when the cell door suddenly opened again, and this time it was Pei Xingli who appeared. He glanced at the dishes in her hand, and felt a little relieved when he saw that she had eaten cleanly: "Yes, I'm afraid that you will give up on yourself." "No, but if there is a glimmer of hope, I will try for it." Xiling Yue's expression was firm. Pei Xingli nodded approvingly: "But you can't take it lightly, the servant will interrogate you personally." "Now?" "Hmm." Pei Xingli didn't say much.

Xilingyue patted the dust on her body: "Let's go." ”

Pei Xingli stood still, suddenly walked a few steps closer to her, and asked cautiously: "There is no one at the moment, tell me who you are?" What is the purpose of coming to Zhenhai? Only by telling the truth can I think of something to help you. ”

Xi Lingyue bit her lower lip and shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I don't want to affect my family." ”

Pei Xingli could also understand her thoughts, and even knew that she had made up her mind, so he couldn't help sighing: "In that case, let's take a step at a time." ”

He said as he took out a pair of shackles and prepared to put them on her, "You can be wronged for the time being, I can't be too favoritistic." ”

Seeing him pick up the shackles, a spark suddenly flashed in his mind, and he took two steps back and dodged: "General Pei, I have a question for you." ”

"You ask."

"That night, you stopped me from escaping, asked me to pretend to be Jiang Yunyi to enter the mansion, and helped me with advice, why?" Pei Xingli's body stiffened: "You doubt me?" ”

"Now I doubt anyone." Xiling Yue is vigilant and authentic.

Pei Xingli didn't get angry, but felt helpless: "You are too stupid, if this matter is really my mastermind, wouldn't you give me a chance to kill me when there is no one around?" ”

Xilingyue was quite sure: "You won't do it in the cell, so many guards are watching from the outside, isn't it true that you are guilty of killing people and killing people?" ”

"That's right." Pei Xingli pretended to smile, put the shackles on her hands, paused, and finally asked, "That night...... Can't you say the man who robbed the prison with you? ”

Xiling Yue pursed her lips, the meaning was self-evident.

Pei Xingli knew that he had no right to put his beak, so he could only sigh: "Okay, if he is still a man, I hope he can save you." ”

The two of them left the dungeon together and went to the inner courtyard of the prince.

Before Xilingyue approached, she smelled a strong sandalwood fragrance in the courtyard, and she paused: "What kind of smell is this?" ”

"It's the son's favorite incense." Pei Xingli didn't feel abnormal.

Xilingyue sniffed hard: "No, when I came here to see Shizi the night before, I didn't have such a strong smell. ”

"You still have the heart to think about this, let's talk about it first." Pei Xingli deliberately pushed her hard with a straight face, pretending to be businesslike.

Xilingyue was pushed to stumble a step, and deliberately distanced herself from him by three points, and the two stepped into the courtyard door one after the other and walked into the main hall.

Li Qi, Mrs. Gao, and Li Wangzhen were already waiting here. Xilingyue took the initiative to kneel down without waiting for instructions and greeted a few people.

Li Qi had already heard what had happened, so he went straight to the point: "Last time in the study, the official dealt with you, and smart people don't say dark things, don't you say?" ”

Xilingyue knew that Li Qi was powerful, and she didn't dare to perfunctory: "Li Servant has something to say, please speak." ”

"Good." Li Qi put his hands behind his back and walked in front of Xilingyue, "Your grievances with the Jiang Mansion, this official is not interested in hearing about it." The official also knew the matter of robbing prisoners, but it was done by a group of rebels in Changzhou. I just want to know what is the purpose of your coming to this house, and what is your intention to approach my son? ”

Hearing this, Xiling Yue secretly thought in her heart. Li Qi's words revealed several information: first, he already knew about his deal with "Jiang Gong", and he didn't care who was the real daughter and who was the fake daughter; Second, the blessed king Li Chengxuan was not caught, otherwise Li Qi would not have said that it was "committed by a group of rebels in Changzhou"; Third, he only cares about the whereabouts of his son Li Heng.

With such an analysis, Xilingyue also had a bottom in her heart, and said busily: "The servants shoot, the people's daughter and the Jiang Mansion have neither kindness nor grudges, they just take money to do things." Last night, there was a fire and a robbery in the house, and the people didn't know anything; The folk girl didn't even think about getting close to the prince, but kept thinking about escaping from your mansion. ”

Li Qi naturally didn't believe it, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes.

Xi Lingyue had already typed the draft in prison, and hurriedly explained: "This matter is a long story, the folk girl was originally an orphan girl, and she came to Zhenhai to find her relatives, but her relatives were not found, but she met Jiang Gong'......"

Xilingyue will tell how she reached an agreement with the "Jiang Mansion", how she met Li Heng and Pei Xingli in Jinshan Temple, how she was coerced by the "Jiang couple" to be guests, and how she made Li Heng misunderstand that she was deliberately approaching...... This series of things was all said, and he talked about his last meeting with Li Heng the night before, but he didn't mention Pei Xingli's role in it.

"That's how things happened, and the people didn't dare to deceive them." Xilingyue pretended to be aggrieved and kowtowed heavily to show her sincerity.

Li Qi, Mrs. Gao and Li Wangzhen didn't know what was going on, and it was the first time they heard it completely. Several people both felt unbelievable and felt that there was some truth, but they were all skeptical.

Mrs. Gao was the first to ask: "If an ordinary woman is favored by my son, I don't know how happy I want to be, why do you want to run away?" ”

"Because I'm pretending, I'm afraid of being exposed!" Xilingyue resisted the urge to roll her eyes, her heart is the same for all mothers in the world, and she looks at her son as the best.

Mrs. Gao thought about it, and it seemed that she was too, so she kept her mouth shut.
