Chapter 209: Imprisoned
Shangshu of the Criminal Department never expected that Li Jinyu was such a scheming and calm and self-contained person.
He seems to be able to find a lot of flaws very quickly and fight back. But so what?
Shangshu of the Criminal Department couldn't come up with evidence for a while, but he also said with a hard face: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, now Wechen can't come up with evidence, but if it really wasn't you who did it, Wechen will definitely not slander you." ”
He has always been businesslike, but no matter how he looks at it now, he feels that Li Jinyu is very suspicious.
Li Jinyu looked at the appearance of Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and also knew what kind of character he was. His tone softened slightly, and he said slowly, "Your Excellency, you might as well go and check the wounds on the corpses of the Imperial Guards. ”
Li Jinyu has already figured it out, and the most important thing now is to leave this prison. If this matter affects his subsequent ascension to the throne, it will definitely outweigh the losses.
He spoke softly, with a little bitterness: "You also know that my secret guards all use darts, you can check if the wounds on them match." ”
When she was brought here, the moment Li Jinyu saw the corpse, she was thinking about how to prove her innocence.
He had seen the wound on the corpse of the Imperial Forester just now, which had been fatally killed by a sword cut through his neck, so that could completely excuse him.
The criminal department is also a little uncertain.
As soon as he raised his hand, his face expressionless, he asked the servant who followed him to verify the wound on the corpse. And when verifying the wound, Shangshu of the Criminal Department still looked at Li Jinyu, as if he wanted to stare at him to prevent him from escaping.
And Li Jinyu is the old god is there, and seeing that the wound has been verified, it means that he will be able to go out soon. He wasn't so cautious.
Li Jinyu found a chair next to her and sat down, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, looking at the appearance of a prisoner in a cell.
He reminded with a smile: "This temple thinks that this matter is very likely to be done by the brother of this temple." Lord Shangshu, you also know that now is a critical time, and many people want to take advantage of this time to seize the handle of the main hall and pull the main hall off the horse. ”
Shangshu of the Criminal Department pursed his lips and didn't say a word, but just instructed the servant over there: "You have to check carefully, don't make a mistake in the autopsy for the sake of speed." ”
Naturally, he didn't dare to slack off, rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat that was almost dripping from his forehead, and hurriedly checked it again.
Seeing that Shangshu of the Criminal Department did not react to his words, I don't know why, Li Jinyu's heart was very uncomfortable.
The smile on the corner of his mouth narrowed slightly, and then his voice followed with a cold voice: "Now, my father is seriously ill, and he also allows this palace to participate in some government affairs. Lord Shangshu, this hall advises you, it's better to let the main hall out as soon as possible. ”
That's where the pressure really comes in.
Li Jinyu deliberately mentioned these words to tell the Shangshu of the Criminal Department that he was the prince who was most likely to ascend that seat, so it was best not to offend.
If the ordinary wall grass heard this, it is estimated that they would quickly agree and compliment Li Jinyu.
But the criminal department Shangshu did not show anything. His voice was cold, and he said firmly: "Now even if the emperor is sick, Weichen still has to follow the process." ”
Li Jinyu: "......"
He sneered in his heart, and silently kept Secretary Shang of the Criminal Department in his heart, very resentful.
It didn't take long for the post-mortem to experience the wound: "My lord, the wound of the Imperial Forest Army was caused by a sword. ”
"Are you sure? No post-mortem errors? Shangshu of the Criminal Department frowned, looked at Li Jinyu's smug smile, and asked again in disbelief.
He swore and promised: "The small one is absolutely not wrong, and the adults can rest assured." ”
"I said it a long time ago, I didn't do it." Li Jinyu snorted coldly, got up and wanted to leave, not wanting to delay time here: "My lord, according to the palace, you should step down from this position earlier, you are not suitable to sit in this position." ”
Li Jinyu laughed, very arrogant.
He was also in this cell as if he were a complete passerby, as if he had come here to play.
The face of the criminal department Shangshu was completely black. He looked at the arrogant and disdainful smile on Li Jinyu's lips, and a burst of unhappiness surged in his heart, and he stopped in front of Li Jinyu: "Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, where are you going?" ”
"Now that it has been proven that it was not my secret guard who killed me, the adults are going to stop me again?" Li Jinyu's smile faded, but she also felt a little unscrupulous: "Now that I'm naturally leaving, I can't play with adults anymore." ”
"Without my order, His Royal Highness the Second Prince can't go anywhere."
Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at the smug and careless smile on Li Jinyu's face, and the unhappiness in his heart had risen to the extreme: "Come on, put the second prince in the prison of the Criminal Department!" ”
"You!" Li Jinyu's eyes widened in shock, and she was really completely angry at this time: "Do you know that you are not in accordance with the etiquette law like this!" ”
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince, as a prisoner, still dares to be lawless. There is no etiquette at all in the prison cell, and this should be said by Weichen and His Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”
After saying this, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department said this firmly, and then looked stern, and raised his hand with a wave: "Even so, you can't eliminate the identity of the second prince as a suspect, take it away!" ”
Li Jinyu naturally struggled extremely violently.
But he alone had no way to break free from the shackles of so many people swarming up, and in the end, he was naturally tied up and sent to the prison of the Criminal Department.
The barbaric and rude approach of the Criminal Department Shangshu made Li Jinyu never expect it, and finally read the name of the Criminal Department Shangshu when he was put into prison.
It's just that the name is associated with some dirty swear words.
The criminal department Shangshu turned a deaf ear, and the means were thunderous, and there was no intention of showing mercy at all.
Guogong Mansion.
Guogong Mansion has been busy these days, Sun Jiayao is about to marry Li Jinyu, so she has been preparing for the wedding for the past two days.
Sun Jiayao even came to the house to inspect the work of these maids. She came to a maid who was setting a flower pot and commanded, "Put that pot of flowers here, it looks good here." ”
The maid obediently put the pot of flowers over.
But after putting it up, Sun Jiayao looked at it carefully, shook her head, and said to the maid: "No, it doesn't look good here, you better put it over there." ”
The maid obediently swung over again. It's just such a toss, and suddenly the maid's face is sweating a lot.
The flower pot is not light, and this flower is very precious, if you accidentally break this pot of flowers, then I am afraid that the maid will be driven away immediately.
The maid was covered in sweat, and Sun Jiayao was still standing next to her and watching, and suddenly the maid was bitter in her heart, but she couldn't say anything to complain.
Fortunately, Sun Jiayao saw that the ground of a small house next to her was not cleaned at this time, and went over there again.
Just when Sun Jiayao was doing her best for her marriage, a maid from the Su family came over and whispered to Sun Jiayao, "Second Miss, Madame, please come over." ”
Sun Jiayao nodded, not doubting him.
She came to Su's room, with a happy smile on her lips: "Mother, what are you looking for me?" ”
"Jia Yao." Su Shi called her name, and her expression was a little solemn: "I want to tell you one thing next, you must be mentally prepared." ”
"It's okay, mother, you can say it." Sun Jiayao didn't feel anything at all, and said with a big grin.
Su Shi stared at Sun Jiayao and said slowly: "The second prince is now in the prison of the Criminal Department, and it is estimated that he will not be able to get out for the time being." ”
Sun Jiayao didn't expect such news at all. The smile on her face disappeared almost at a visible rate, and then she hurriedly asked, "Why is he being imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Department?" ”
"It is said that it may be because of rebellion." Su Shi said slowly.
Sun Jiayao was shocked, and she couldn't hear anything else in her ears. But she tried to force herself to calm down and analyze the current situation.
It is impossible to really rebel, if it is true, then I am afraid that Li Jinyu has been imprisoned now, and there is no room for turnaround.
But now he is only temporarily imprisoned, which means that he is only suspicious, that is, there is still salvation!
Sun Jiayao's complexion changed several times, and then she thought of a way: "Yes, Daddy must have a way!" ”
She almost trotted to the study, found Sun Dewu, her voice trembled, and hurriedly said: "Daddy, please save the second prince and help him out!" ”
When Sun Dewu saw her rushing in in a hurry, he thought it was a big deal, but when he heard it, he found that it was actually about Li Jinyu again, and his face instantly turned cold.
He glanced at Sun Jiayao's flustered look, and then said the words of refusal in a deep voice: "Jiayao, I'm afraid this won't work." ”
Sun Jiayao suddenly became even more anxious: "Why? Daddy, you must know that the second prince is going to marry his daughter, and now that he is in prison, isn't he going to delay the marriage? ”
Speaking of this, Sun Dewu's face was even more ugly. He looked at Sun Jiayao's anxious look, and after thinking about it, he still felt that he wanted to talk to her carefully.
In the end, Sun Dewu pulled Sun Jiayao to the side and sat down, and said slowly: "Jiayao, I have to explain one thing to you, in fact, my father thinks that the second prince is not your lover." ”
"What do you mean, Daddy?" Sun Jiayao's eyes widened, and she broke free of his hand: "Do you want to say that he will be left to fend for himself?" ”
"It's not." Sun Dewu softened his tone, tried to calm Sun Jiayao, and said slowly: "Jiayao, it's just that he has a deep mind, and he is not the best candidate to ascend the throne, and naturally, he is not your lover." ”
"Let's take one step at a time, for the sake of my father, if I don't take the initiative to save him, see how his own creation is?"
Sun Dewu was clearly in a consultative tone, but Sun Jiayao seemed to be stimulated a lot, and then said loudly: "Just because of such a simple reason? Daddy, for the sake of your so-called loyalty, you can't bear to watch your daughter's sweetheart in prison and do nothing? ”
Sun Dewu faced Sun Jiayao's questioning, but he had already made up his mind to let her find another lover, so he just turned his head and said nothing, his face was cold.
Sun Jiayao's heart had sunk to the bottom, and then she turned her head and left without saying a word.
In the palace of King Rui.
Sun Qingqing naturally didn't know about these things that happened in the Guogong Mansion. She took the initiative to find Zhao De and asked him: "Steward Zhao, do you have a carrier pigeon that specializes in delivering news?" ”
Zhao De agreed, "Yes, what is the princess going to do?" ”
"I'd like to borrow your carrier pigeon and send some news to others." Sun Qingqing briefly expressed his intention and explained that it was a letter to Windy City.
Zhao De pondered for a while, then took Sun Qingqing to a certain attic in the backyard, and said softly: "Princess, please wait here for a while, and my subordinates will fetch it for you." ”
