Seeing this, Zhang Cuiyun's body shook, and he couldn't even kneel steadily.

The jailer on the side did not feel pity for Zhang Cuiyun's bloodless face, but talked about the use of various torture instruments even more vividly.

The jailer had a calm and breezy expression, as if he was not talking about a matter of human life.

It's just like pinching an ant to death.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, it is indeed like this.

The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

No matter how much he glorifies the powerful in his lifetime, if he angers the Son of Heaven against the scales, it is just a matter of words.

Until the jailer said that "cutting cloud slices" is to use a knife to cut off the meat one by one.

Zhang Cuiyun's psychological defense line could no longer bear it, shaking like chaff.

Then he collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

When the eldest princess saw this, she gave the jailer a look, and the jailer kept silent, so she stood aside and waited.

"Zhang Cuiyun, have you thought about it? If you confess honestly, maybe the emperor and the palace will spare you and your daughter's lives for the sake of your repentance, not to mention that this matter is not like a plan that you can come up with as a village woman, you are just being used as a gun, and the crime will not lead to death, what do you say? The eldest princess said in an orderly manner.

I have to say that the eldest princess's coercion and temptation are useful in the end.

I saw that Zhang Cuiyun's originally bloodless face gradually warmed up.

Her thoughts were also pulled back by the eldest princess's words.

Yes, although she and her daughter are at fault, they are not the masterminds.

Now with the words of the eldest princess, Zhang Cuiyun is also like being reassured.

As long as you stay alive, you can say anything.

Thinking like this, Zhang Cuiyun hurriedly knelt on the ground respectfully, and kowtowed a few times to the eldest princess and the emperor.

"Back to the emperor, back to the eldest princess, the women are guilty...... The identity of Zhong Xiaoshu is indeed known to the people's women. ”

When the eldest princess heard this, her face turned overjoyed, and she hurriedly asked anxiously: "Ahem, what is Zhong Xiaoshu's identity, you are recruiting from the truth." ”

Seeing this, the grandmother on the side hurriedly smoothed the eldest princess and handed a cup of hot water.

The eldest princess can still take care of these now.

Holding the cup, he looked at Zhang Cuiyun with a blank eye, waiting for her to say the following.

"This Zhong Xiaoshu, she, she, she is...... It is the pearl of the eldest princess. Zhang Cuiyun trembled for a while, and finally stammered out.

When the eldest princess heard this, she only felt as if her heart had been pinched fiercely, and her face suddenly changed unpredictably.

He was speechless in a daze.

When the emperor on the side heard this, he still tried his best to keep his composure, frowned and said: "Zhang Cuiyun, there are some things you have to think about before you say it, if you dare to expire, you know the end." ”

When Zhang Cuiyun heard this, her face stiffened, and she hurriedly kowtowed: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor Mingjian, even if he gives ten daring women, the women dare not lie, that Zhong Xiaoshu is really the pearl left by the eldest princess." ”

"There is no evidence, what evidence do you have to prove that Zhong Xiaoshu is the county lord?" The emperor said majestically.

"The jade pendant that Ning Shuyan and the eldest princess recognized was taken from Zhong Xiaoshu."

When the eldest princess heard this, she couldn't help but get excited, and the cup in her hand was also clenched.

The hot water from the cup shook and splashed on the eldest princess's white and tender hands, and the eldest princess seemed to be unconscious.

"The women don't dare to lie, the women remember very well, it happened to be summer when they picked up Zhong Xiaoshu, it seemed to be the ...... of July 18," Zhang Cuiyun paused, as if recalling, and then said more affirmatively, "Yes, it was July 18, when the women were washing clothes in the small river on the edge of the village, they saw a wooden barrel floating over, and when the wooden barrel floated closer, they found that it was a baby girl who was still in swaddling clothes. ”

"At that time, the baby girl was wearing a jade pendant around her neck, although the woman didn't understand this, but she could also see that the jade pendant was crystal clear, not ordinary, and the cloth that wrapped the baby girl's swaddling clothes was very expensive at a glance."

"At that time, there was a note in the barrel where the baby girl was placed, and the woman also knew about it after reading it, so she took the baby girl back and raised it."

"The emperor forgives the sins, the eldest princess forgives the sins, the people were also fascinated by wealth at that time, thinking that this baby girl must be a child of a rich and noble family, if someone comes to claim it in the future, she can ask for a sum of money, so she took it back, but she didn't expect it to be the little county lord."

Zhang Cuiyun was like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and she told the situation of the day one by one in front of the emperor and the eldest princess.

Every time Zhang Cuiyun said a word, the eldest princess's face turned white.

Zhang Cuiyun's words were conclusive, and every sentence reminded the eldest princess of the scene when she was forced to send her child out that day.

In terms of time, clothing and belongings, it was the same as it was on that day.

Originally, the eldest princess didn't faintly guess this result.

Ever since I saw the swaddling clothes and notes in the wooden box that day, I became more and more suspicious, but I didn't want to admit it in my heart.

Now Zhang Cuiyun's words are like a sharp knife, cutting through the reality that the eldest princess dare not face.

When Ning Shuyan came over to take the jade pendant to confess her relatives, the eldest princess also asked Ning Shuyan's mother.

At that time, Ning Shuyan's mother was able to mix up on the grounds that it was too long and couldn't remember clearly.

If it weren't for the eldest princess confirming that the jade pendant in Ning Shuyan's hand was indeed the one that day, and with the eagerness to recognize the girl, it would not have been possible for the mother and daughter to take advantage of the loophole.

But I didn't expect that the person who had hurt his own daughter for so long was the murderer who really lost his beloved daughter!

For a moment, anger, fear, regret, and heartache couldn't help but linger in the eldest princess's heart.

thought of his previous attitude towards Zhong Xiaoshu, as well as conniving at Ning Shuyan's persecution of Zhong Xiaoshu, and the child in Zhong Xiaoshu's womb was not saved.

Why isn't she an accomplice in these things?

It's just that she found out the truth too late, but I'm afraid that after these things, Zhong Xiaoshu's mother-daughter relationship with her will be difficult to repair.

At this time, the eldest princess really realized the meaning of what Yin Zhige said before leaving the princess's mansion that day.

She did regret it, she really regretted it, she never regretted it like she did now!

The emperor on the side looked at the eldest princess like this, how could he not guess the reason.

In fact, the person who regrets it is not only the eldest princess?

The emperor couldn't help but sigh, and after relieving for a moment, he waved his hand and let the jailer take Zhang Cuiyun down first.
