Chapter 295: Separate Arraignment
Since the eldest princess failed to meet Yin Zhige late at night and couldn't ask, her whole person has become a lot haggard.
Xu was too depressed in her heart, perhaps because of her weak body, and the eldest princess fell ill soon after.
At first, the princess's mansion also went to a lot of imperial doctors, but these imperial doctors only said that the eldest princess's qi and blood were stagnant, and her heart was difficult to solve, and she was helpless for a while.
As for the knot in the heart of the eldest princess, who has always been favored, few people know it.
During this period, Ning Shuyan, as a daughter, also went to see it a few times in terms of face.
But the eldest princess didn't see anything as if she was determined, as if she really wanted to recuperate.
Ning Shuyan also ended up clean, but she felt faintly uneasy in her heart.
Now Zhong Xiaoshu is staying in Dali Temple, even if Ning Shuyan wants to start, he can't find a chance.
After all, a place like Dali Temple is heavily guarded, not to mention that Yin Zhige is guarding every inch, Ning Shuyan is afraid of startling the grass and snakes, so naturally she will not cause trouble for no reason.
The emperor knew that after the eldest princess was sick, he also visited twice, but the eldest princess did not get better for a long time, how could the emperor not know what was going on in the depression in his royal sister's heart.
If there is no solution to this matter one day, I am afraid that the eldest princess's condition will not improve for a day.
"Eldest princess, there is a father-in-law outside the door who asks to see him, saying that he came here with the emperor's will."
The eldest princess was leaning on the bed and drinking medicine, and a grandmother came in to report it.
When the eldest princess heard this, she hurriedly put down the medicine bowl: "Let my father-in-law come in." ”
If the emperor has nothing to do, he will definitely not let his father-in-law come over, and it may not be necessary to come up with any way this time.
When the father-in-law entered the door, he first respectfully saluted the eldest princess, and then pinched his sharp voice and said: "Eldest princess, the old slave came here by the emperor's order, and the emperor said that the eldest princess has a solution to the matter that she is worried about, and asks the eldest princess to recuperate, and someone will come to invite the eldest princess after three days." ”
When the eldest princess heard this, she couldn't help but feel a burst of joy in her heart, and she just wanted to say something, but she couldn't help coughing.
Seeing this, the grandmother on the side hurriedly stepped forward to pat the eldest princess on the back and smooth out.
The father-in-law has served the emperor all the year round, and he is naturally a good person, so when he saw this, he said: "The eldest princess is resting, the words of the old slave have arrived, and I will go back to the emperor to return to my life." ”
"Father-in-law walks slowly...... Ahem. The eldest princess's eyes were happy, and although she was coughing, she didn't look as sick as before.
If this matter can be completely resolved, a stone in my heart for so many years can be put down.
The eldest princess thought as she clutched the swaddling clothes on the bed.
Three days later, Zhang Cuiyun and Zhong Xiaodi also came with a group of guards.
"Zhang Cuiyun, come with us, the emperor wants to personally try the case of Zhong Xiaoshu's abandonment, and there are some things I want to ask you." The guard who took the lead said with a cold expression.
Zhang Cuiyun has been trembling in this Dali Temple for the past two days.
Although a good room was arranged for them, just in case the door was heavily guarded.
It's not a prison, but it's not free.
Seeing this posture now, how dare Zhang Cuiyun offend the official at the foot of the imperial city, seeing this, he hurriedly responded.
Then he took Zhong Xiaodi's hand and prepared to go together.
But who expected that after just two steps, the guard spoke: "The emperor only passed Zhang Cuiyun this time, Miss Zhong should rest here now." ”
"This ......" Zhang Cuiyun didn't expect to go over alone, and her face was embarrassed for a while.
An old face that was already weathered is even more wrinkled at the moment.
This Zhong Xiaodi is Zhang Cuiyun's backbone, if there is no Zhong Xiaodi this time, Zhang Cuiyun will inevitably make mistakes.
Zhong Xiaodi naturally knew it, and frowned when he saw this.
"This official, this is a matter of our mother and daughter, and I went with my mother to the previous trial, why did I only interrogate my mother this time?" Zhong Xiaodi was very anxious in his heart, but his face was replaced by a smile, and he walked to the guard and asked softly.
Zhong Xiaodi has a good skin, so he naturally knows what kind of way is beneficial to him.
The guard was a man in the end, and seeing Zhong Xiaodi's bright eyes, he couldn't help but slow down his tone: "We're just helping the emperor to spread the word, and as for why the emperor made such a decision, it's not up to us to ask." ”
Seeing this, Zhong Xiaodi also knew that he could only stay here today.
Even if he was reluctant, he didn't have the courage to openly resist the decree.
Zhong Xiaodi stepped forward and walked up to Zhang Cuiyun in a few steps, held Zhang Cuiyun's hand and said softly: "Mother, don't worry, anyway, it's not our fault in this matter, the emperor is wise, and he will definitely return our mother and son to a clean slate." ”
At the end, Zhong Xiaodi said to Zhang Cuiyun in a voice that only two people could hear: "As long as you bite Zhong Xiaoshu to death, you will have the county lord to help us carry it." ”
When Zhang Cuiyun heard this, the nervous look on his face dissipated a lot, and he looked at Zhong Xiaodi and nodded.
"Okay, don't delay the time, if there is nothing to do, hurry up, if you delay the time, a few heads will not be enough to cut off." Seeing this, the guard couldn't help but urge.
Zhang Cuiyun replied with a "hey", and then followed the guards out of the house step by step.
After all, this Dali Temple is a place in the imperial city that specializes in trying important cases, and it is naturally very big, and the guards took Zhang Cuiyun around and around a lot along the way.
Zhang Cuiyun is a little older, although it is early winter, she can't help but sweat a little when she walks down like this.
I wanted to ask something, but when I looked up at the unsmiling guards around me, I swallowed what I wanted to say again.
After walking some distance, the guard opened a large iron door and said, "Go in." ”
Zhang Cuiyun looked at the iron gate, even if he was stupid, he could see that this was a dungeon.
Before Zhang Cuiyun could speak, a guard took Zhang Cuiyun's arms on both sides and took her to the dungeon.
This dungeon is the same place where Zhong Xiaoshu was locked up a few days ago.
Zhang Cuiyun is just a wild woman in the countryside, when has she ever seen such a scene.
I only felt that the dungeon was very cold, and there were endless shouts of grievances all around.
The deeper you go into the prison, the more obvious the cold feeling becomes, but the original cry of injustice gradually fades away, and it is silent for a while.
The dungeon was so silent that you could hear the crackling of candles on the walls of the dungeon, as well as the sound of Zhang Cuiyun's own nervous breathing.
