was scolded by the old woman in the prison for a long time, so long that Su Xiaoya didn't want to listen to it anymore, sat on the side and thought about her mind silently, and no longer cared about the ugly words that popped out of the old woman's mouth.

"You wait, even if you have an ambiguous relationship with the emperor, so what? Our Xu family will definitely let the emperor execute you and avenge my daughter. The old woman snorted coldly, and looking at Su Xiaoya's indifferent appearance, she became even more angry in her heart.

Su Xiaoya opened her eyes and glanced at the old woman, and sighed helplessly: "I have already said it, this matter has nothing to do with me." Of course, I won't admit it. If you Xu family have this kung fu to put on me, you might as well investigate who the real culprit is. ”

But the old woman didn't care about this, she now wholeheartedly decided that Su Xiaoya was the murderer, where would she care about other things?

"I said that I have nothing to do with the emperor, so what reason do I have to kill Concubine Xu? I had never seen Concubine Xu, and the first time I saw her body that day was my first meeting with Concubine Xu. Su Xiaoya frowned and said to the old woman while analyzing.

The old woman wanted to speak again, but the jailer came at this time: "Okay, okay, you and I can't eat and walk around if we talk any longer!" Hurry back, Lord Shangshu will come over for interrogation soon! ”

The old woman opened her mouth to speak, but was pushed out by the jailer.

The book of the criminal department? Su Xiaoya suddenly laughed, she didn't expect that these people were really well-intentioned, and in order to interrogate a woman like herself, they even used the book of the Criminal Department.

Soon the Shangshu of the Criminal Department really came, and there were a few guards behind him.

"Alright, let's bring people out first." Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at Su Xiaoya, who was still neatly dressed in the cell, even if she was in deep trouble, and he was also a little apprehensive in his heart.

Who doesn't know that this Su Xiaoya's husband is the hussar general who is now leading troops out of the army? Although the hussar general is not in the city now, once the hussar general returns......

The criminal department Shangshu suddenly hesitated, he didn't know whether he should listen to that person or not.

"Mrs. Su, if you enter this prison, you don't have any hope of getting out. None of the people who have been in this cell for so many years have been able to get out alive. Why don't you just recruit it? "There is still some luck on the face of the criminal department.

Su Xiaoya looked at the criminal department book coldly: "What? Do you want me to confess before you can show evidence? Or are the adults the same as the real murderer? ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department was shocked in his heart, held back his hand that wanted to rush up and give Su Xiaoya a slap, and gritted his teeth and said, "Mrs. Su, don't forget, the person in charge of your interrogation is me!" ”

"So what? Do you want to be beaten into a trick? Su Xiaoya is not afraid of death, she is just worried about what she will do if she can't see herself when Beiye Xuan comes back.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department realized that he didn't have to think about getting anything cheap from Su Xiaoya, so he directly asked Su Xiaoya to be tied to a wooden stake, and he also took a torture instrument in his hand.

"Mrs. Su, don't eat and drink for toasting, this is your own choice, you can't blame others!" As he spoke, Shangshu of the Criminal Department directly slapped the barbed leather whip in his hand on Su Xiaoya's body.

Outside the prison, Lin Wan'er became anxious since she knew that Su Xiaoya had been interrogated.

"What should I do, now that my father is not in the city, who else do you think we can go to now?!" Lin Wan'er took Qingrong's hand and asked.

Qingrong was so anxious that she was about to cry: "Miss Wan'er, our wife has the best relationship with you, you must have a way!" ”

Lin Wan'er couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and hurriedly said, "I'...... I'm going to find that man, he must have a way to help Sister Xiaoya......"

With that, Lin Wan'er took Qingrong to find Xiao Jinghuan together.

"You said that the shopkeeper Su was put in prison?!" Xiao Jinghuan frowned, no wonder he hadn't seen Su Xiaoya in the past few days, it turned out that something had happened!

Lin Wan'er nodded, and she was about to cry in a hurry: "What should I do?" I've heard that the interrogation in the prison has started today. Sister Xiaoya, she ...... She definitely can't stand it! ”

Xiao Jinghuan comforted Lin Wan'er, but muttered, "What should I do?" I don't know what to do...... I can't reveal my identity......"

"What?!" Lin Wan'er didn't hear Xiao Jinghuan's voice clearly, and couldn't help but raise her voice and ask.

Xiao Jinghuan shook his head, but just looked at Lin Wan'er with an embarrassed expression: "I'm afraid I won't be able to help you...... This matter was decided by the emperor, and I had no way to go into the palace to find the emperor, nor did I have the ability to persuade the emperor. ”

Lin Wan'er's heart sank, and she looked at Xiao Jinghuan with a sneer and said, "Sister Xiaoya, who is losing, personally cooks food for you every time, didn't you have good intentions to get close to Sister Xiaoya?" I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person! ”

After speaking, Lin Wan'er didn't want to listen to Xiao Jinghuan's explanation anymore, so she directly pulled Qingrong and left.

In the palace, the queen was looking at the emperor of Northern Xinjiang with anticipation.

"Your Majesty, in fact, we all know in our hearts what Mrs. Su is doing, if she does such a thing, the concubines will not believe it. What's more, when the concubine rushed over, Mrs. Su's hands were still clean, and there was not the slightest trace of blood on her clothes, and even the time didn't make sense. The queen thought that the emperor of Northern Xinjiang had always treated Su Xiaoya and his wife very well, and maybe she would be able to let Su Xiaoya go this time.

Who knew that the Emperor of Northern Xinjiang shook his head and said, "Empress, I can't help this matter. What's more, the palace maid who found out that Mrs. Su killed people is still by your side...... Neither you nor Mrs. Su have any way to weigh it. ”

Listening to the words of the Emperor of Northern Xinjiang, the smile on the queen's face immediately retracted: "Your Majesty, the palace maid has already been bought, and the concubine has also asked people to investigate, or it won't be long before there will be this evidence!" ”

The queen couldn't figure out how such a person could appear around her, she had always been very cautious in picking palace maids, and this was the first time in so many years that a traitor had appeared around her.

The Emperor of Northern Xinjiang rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I also know that maybe Mrs. Su is really wronged in this matter, but last night Concubine He came here and cried with me for most of the night, obviously frightened by yesterday's incident, I really can't help it!" ”

Concubine He was frightened by what happened last night? The queen snorted coldly in her heart, when she testified against Su Xiaoya yesterday, Concubine He was very enthusiastic! Where do you feel like you're scared?

It's just that the queen didn't expect the emperor of Northern Xinjiang to believe Concubine He's nonsense!

"Your Majesty! This thing is also strange, everyone is chatting and talking in the concubine's hall, why did Concubine He suddenly follow Mrs. Su to the door of the room where Concubine Xu was killed? Didn't the emperor think this matter was a little strange? The queen didn't believe that this matter had nothing to do with Concubine He, after all, Concubine He hated Su Xiaoya the most.

The Emperor of Northern Xinjiang also thought of Concubine He's three or two troubles to Su Xiaoya, and said with some hesitation: "But...... Can this matter have anything to do with Concubine He? Although Concubine He is a little rude on weekdays, she is still very bold. ”

"Your Majesty, it's timid to say, I'm afraid Mrs. Su is even less courageous, right? What's more, Mrs. Su can't do that kind of difficult thing! The more the queen talked, the more angry she became, and she couldn't wait to stand up and directly scold Concubine He for being a murderer.

The Emperor of Northern Xinjiang sighed in embarrassment, and said to the queen: "I will investigate this matter carefully, but now that the Shangshu of the Criminal Department has gone to interrogate Su Xiaoya, as long as Su Xiaoya can use all the punishments and survive, then I will definitely sentence her not guilty, how about it?" ”

The punishments in the northern Xinjiang prison are innumerable, and some of them are even very cruel. Men can't survive those punishments in prison, let alone Su Xiaoya?!

The empress was a little skeptical that the Emperor of Northern Xinjiang wanted to bend into a move.

"Is the emperor trying to bend into a move?" The empress looked at the Northern Xinjiang Emperor with some disappointment and asked.

The Emperor of Northern Xinjiang hurriedly explained: "How can this be regarded as a trick? Speaking of which, this idea was also put forward by Concubine He, since Mrs. Su is innocent, then she will naturally not let go of these punishments, and then sentence Mrs. Su not guilty, isn't it more reasonable? ”

The queen was completely disappointed in her heart, she couldn't figure out whether the emperor of Northern Xinjiang was confused by Concubine He, or whether he was so stupid that he would believe Concubine He's bad idea.

"Since the emperor has made up his mind, the concubines have nothing to say. It's just that the hussar general will be back soon, right? How to explain to the hussar general when the time comes, the emperor should do it himself. After speaking, the queen ignored the emperor of Northern Xinjiang and left the study directly.

As soon as she returned to Chuxiu Palace, the queen saw Lin Wan'er crying with tears on her face.

"Queen Mother, please save Sister Xiaoya! How could she survive in that prison or such a place?! Lin Wan'er cried and collapsed on the ground, without any strength in her body.

The queen sighed and personally helped Lin Wan'er up from the ground: "It's not that the palace doesn't help, it's just that now the emperor is also confused by Concubine He, no matter what the palace says about the emperor...... The emperor doesn't want to listen to the words of the palace! ”

Lin Wan'er is a little sluggish, can't even the queen be able to do it now? Are they now all but sitting still?

"But the queen mother, it is really impossible for Sister Xiaoya to do such a thing, why do you still put Sister Xiaoya in prison? Now that there is no evidence, do you have to listen to the one-sided words of that palace maid?! Lin Wan'er was a little emotional, and she didn't even care that she was in front of the queen now.

As soon as the queen heard Lin Wan'er talk about the palace maid, her face changed: "Hmph, this palace didn't expect that there would be such a traitor around her!" Don't worry, this palace maid has been locked up, and this palace will definitely let this palace maid spit out the truth. ”
