Chapter 178: Imprisoned

"Then who do you suspect?" Chi Yingchu couldn't say that he completely believed him, but his words were not unreasonable, there were too many doubts behind it to be directly determined.

Lu Yuanbai's eyes were deep, as if he was deliberately observing her expression at the moment, and his thin lips drank out a few words: "Emperor, he was also present yesterday." ”

Besides, now that this is happening, he is also the biggest beneficiary, but if he says it so rashly, I'm afraid no one will believe it, and he won't dare to speak for him.

Chi Yingchu's eyes changed a little, and the two good-looking brows squeezed out folds: "If that's the case, then what should we do?"

Lu Yuanbai paused, and after thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "Fang Yucen himself is at fault, the evidence cannot fully prove that it was done by this king, and the emperor can't take advantage of this to take my life, so it's better to push the boat to Xuzhou along the river." ”

"Xuzhou?" Chi Yingchu faintly remembered what he said a few days ago, Xuzhou was the most prosperous place for the Fang family's business, what did he want to check there?

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a strong dragon to suppress the head snake, Xuzhou is where the Fang family's power lies, Lu Yuanbai Mo was not stimulated and stupid, so he would make such a brainless decision.

She pursed her lips solemnly, thinking about how to persuade him to dispel this idea, but before she could say anything, it seemed that he had seen through it.

He chuckled lightly and opened his mouth to explain to her: "The Fang family's business will have to be investigated sooner or later, and this king had this idea before this. ”

"The Fang family's forces have taken root in Xuzhou, and the king's people are hiding in Jinzhou, and the two cities are only a few dozen miles apart, so they don't dare to do anything to the king. ”

"That ......" She didn't know what she should say, and despite his explanation, she still felt a little unsteady in her heart, and she was inexplicably unstable.

Lu Yuanbai's face was full of relief, with an attitude of not taking it to heart, and patted her shoulder: "If you are afraid, this king will not take you there, if you go with you, as long as this king still has a breath, he will definitely not let you die." ”

While the two were talking, Zhong Jingsong broke in with a pair of forbidden troops, and the entire palace was surrounded inside and out, which was different from the previous scene of besieging the Zhenguo Mansion.

In addition to Zhong Jingsong, who had a complicated face, there was also Lin Jia, who was wearing armor, with a villainous smile.

"What is this for, raiding the house?" Chi Yingchu swept over with cold eyes, stern and resolute.

Zhong Jingsong looked at her like this, as if she had an illusion, she was like the mistress of the palace, and her intention to defend Lu Yuanbai couldn't be more obvious.

The corners of Lu Yuanbai's mouth unconsciously hooked, and a little joy was drawn in his narrow phoenix eyes, Lin Jia stepped forward and sneered: "You are really right." ”

"This is what the emperor meant, the entire Four Princes' Mansion must be carefully searched, and maybe you can find out the murder weapon that killed Fang Yucen by the prince. ”

"Heh, what about the Holy Decree?" Chi Yingchu's gaze passed through Zhong Jingsong and fell to Lin Jia behind him, "You can't say anything." ”

"The emperor said, you will know when you see the emperor. Lin Jia's eyes narrowed, and his calm tone suddenly became fierce, "Escort him away." ”

turned around to leave, suddenly remembered something, and said to Chi Yingchu again: "I forgot to tell you that the emperor is putting him in prison this time, I'm afraid I won't see him." ”

"If you don't see it, it's up to you!" Chi Yingchu's face was annoyed, and he looked like he wanted to do something with him.

Zhong Jingsong stopped her, looked at her eyebrows, rolled in his throat, and nodded with difficulty: "What he said is true, it was the emperor who asked him to assist me in catching ......"

Chi Yingchu interrupted him: "What to catch, what Lu Yuanbai hasn't done, don't slander casually!"

Zhong Jingsong was a little incredulous, in just a short period of time, she was white to Lu Yuanbai? Could it be that she forgot that he was......

The two soldiers wanted to grab Lu Yuanbai's hands, but he hit him to the ground, and the speed of the shot made everyone unable to see clearly, Lin Jia's face changed, and he was about to draw his knife.

Lu Yuanbai was still indifferent, and he didn't even look at him much, as if he was smiling: "Even if the imperial brother is here, he doesn't dare to let people hold this king, what are you?"

After a while, Lin Jia put down the knife in the end, but his mouth still refused to let go: "Extremely arrogant!"

Lu Yuanbai glanced back at Chi Yingchu and only said a few words: "Believe in this king, wait for this king to come back." ”

He went to the prison, Lin Jia followed behind with people, and he didn't dare to say anything about him, and the jailers were polite to him.

Chi Yingchu raised his feet to leave, Zhong Jingsong couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going, but blame me for not speaking for him?"

"I didn't mean that. She let out a heavy puff of air.

In fact, it is easy to see that because of Chu Yimiao's relationship, the emperor asked Zhong Jingsong to come over, deliberately not letting Lu Yuanbai resist, and it was Lin Jia who really arrested people.

His face became more and more embarrassed when he heard this, and he grabbed her wrist excitedly: "Since you know, why did you help him, did you have a hard time, or did he lie to you?"

Chi Yingchu looked at his hand, his expression was cold and unchanged, and he shook it off gently: "There is no bitterness, there is no deception, I believe in him." ”

"You've changed, you've really changed!"

She thought of her parents in danger again and again, thought of the emperor's secret calculations, and maybe there were more she didn't know, and her heart felt like a stone.

She raised her voice uncontrollably: "Do you know me before? Why do you say that I have changed, even if I have changed, how can you prove that I have done wrong? Just because of Lu Yuanbai's bad reputation?"

"We ......" Zhong Jingsong wanted to speak and stopped, but when the words reached his throat, he swallowed them back, closed his eyes and said no more.

Chi Yingchu's eyes moved slightly, his expression seemed to have discovered something, she didn't dare to confirm it, maybe it was for his good to push him away.

"We've only known each other for a few months, so we really don't know each other well, if there is a misunderstanding between Lord Zhong, I apologize to you here. ”

She walked to the gate of the palace, was stopped by the forbidden army outside with a knife, turned around and saw Zhong Jingsong coming, and her voice was cold: "Let her out." ”

"Lord Zhong......" the forbidden army said hesitantly.

Zhong Jingsong raised his voice and shouted, "Let her out, don't let me say it a second time." ”

When Chi Ying first came out of the palace, she ran directly to the direction of the prison, and saw Lu Yuan sitting neatly in the prison in white clothes, still noble and cold.

"When I came, I heard that Lin Jia had entered the palace, what can I do now?" she asked directly.

If the real cause of Fang Yucen's death is found, it should be able to prove Lu Yuanbai's innocence.

Lu Yuanbai shook his head and shook her hand: "You don't have to check, the emperor has done all this, and he won't let you find the flaws easily." ”

"Even if it is found out, there will still be a reason to punish me for capital crimes, don't meddle in this matter, go to the Protector's Mansion to see your mother......"

When he suddenly mentioned this, Chi Yingchu had doubts, but still nodded: "Okay, I know." ”

"Go back. ”

Chi Yingchu didn't stay long, Lu Yuanbai watched her back leave, and the next moment the emperor's figure came out of the corner and sneered contemptuously.

"It seems that you have real feelings for her. ”

What Lu Yuanbai said seemed to be true or false, and he couldn't see his true feelings: "Where is there any feeling, it's just like having a cat and trying to tease her." ”
