Chapter 893 Crimes
Ning Xiyue breathed a sigh of relief, if Lord Chen was here, she could pry open her mouth no matter what, and explain the ins and outs of the silver clearly, but once this person was killed, I was afraid that it would be difficult for the emperor to explain.
It didn't take long to see those officials come up to check the room, and the prince and his party were all disguised to cover up their identities to investigate the case, so naturally they couldn't reveal their identities, and now they were afraid that they would be in trouble.
These people searched one by one, and finally knocked on Ning Xiyue's door.
"Open the door, open the door!" The leader shouted in displeasure.
After opening the door, Ning Xiyue stood with her hands in her hands and said quietly: "What are the officials doing?" ”
After hearing this, the official looked the man in front of him up and down, didn't he say that it was a woman, how could it be a man, take care of him, arrest the person back first.
"Let me ask you, someone died in the next room last night, how can you live in such a big movement across the wall and not hear any movement?" The official asked.
What if they deliberately didn't want to hear it? After thinking of this, Ning Xiyue lightly hooked her lips and couldn't help but say: "I've always slept very deeply, and besides, I was too tired to travel last night and didn't hear any movement." ”
"Is that so? It's been heard in several rooms around, but it's strange that you're not alone. As he spoke, he glanced at the person in front of him disdainfully.
Ning Xiyue smiled, so in this case, this murder charge will be placed on herself no matter what? After thinking about it, he couldn't help but say: "So, what do the officials want?" ”
"Everyone here has to go back to the county government with us to investigate, and you are no exception." The official said solemnly.
Ning Xiyue understood what they meant, this matter was actually a trap, if they had to put the charge of murder on themselves, there was no way.
After thinking of this, she lightly hooked her lips and said, "Since this is the case, then it seems that I have no better choice?" ”
After Ning Xiyue was taken away by these officials, Gu Feng came out of the shadows, what should he do alone now?
At this time, Ning Xiyue, Nalan Shu and the others were all locked in a cell, this was the first time Ning Xiyue had experienced their Muyue country's cell, but it was more luxurious than Fuchen's, at least there were no rats skewering around their feet.
"Let us out, we didn't do anything, let us out!" The men in the cell shouted.
And Ning Xiyue sat on the stool with a lazy sheep, looking sideways at Nalan Shu, who also didn't speak: "They are obviously coming for you and me, how can this be good?" ”
Looking at Ning Xiyue's expression at this time, Nalan Shu's gaze calmed down, raised his hand to clasp Ning Xiyue's wrist, and said, "Don't worry, it's really okay to expose your identity, this is the last resort, and naturally the worst plan." ”
Hearing this, Ning Xiyue couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth, and then said helplessly: "I'm sorry, I seem to have caused you trouble, this incident could have been avoided, you stayed in the inn in order to take care of me, otherwise these things wouldn't have happened, right?" ”
After hearing this, Nalan Shu's expression suddenly became a little more serious, and then he said: "This has nothing to do with you, but I think this matter is very strange, as if there is a pair of eyes staring at us, as if we are very clear about our every move, what do you say?" ”
Ning Xiyue's expression was a little stiffer, and before the words on her lips could be spoken, Lord Liu from the county government came, and after he inspected it with his hands behind his back, he said with interest: "Have you already caught everyone?" ”
"You've already been caught, please see, my lord?" The official said doggedly.
After seeing the people detained in the cell, Lord Liu nodded with satisfaction, can you not do what you are told to do? Thinking about it, he said with a straight face: "It's good to catch it, so that the official can also explain to the people above, well, it's a good job, reward!" ”
"Thank you, sir." The official responded happily.
And Ning Xiyue glanced at the two of them indifferently, are all the magistrates here doing this? Thinking about it, he withdrew his gaze and whispered: "If these people are doing this thing, I don't know how many more people will be killed and injured?" ”
After hearing this, Nalan Shu's gaze fell on her: "Don't worry, now we will wait and see, even if it is for you and me, don't be afraid, I will protect you." ”
Looking at the serious appearance of Nalan Shu, I don't know why, Ning Xiyue was amused, and then looked at the person in front of her with a strange look and said, "Why do I think that when you say these words, I always want to laugh?" ”
"Laugh?" Nalan Shu looked at her sideways.
Ning Xiyue became serious: "Okay, I won't say anything, let's continue to wait for news now!" ”
At this meeting, Feng Huayin, who also came to Ning'an County, heard that Ning Xiyue and Nalan Shu were arrested, but he was a little interested, and only heard him say with a half-smile: "I didn't expect that someone would dare to arrest the prince, it's really interesting." ”
Zhang Wei beside him was curious, scratched the back of his head, and asked stupidly: "Your Highness, why don't your subordinates understand, the prince and the county lord can leave as long as they show their identities, why don't they do it?" ”
Hearing this, Feng Huayin smiled faintly, and then said: "That's because the prince is casting a long line to catch a big fish, but he shouldn't put the people around him in danger." ”
At first glance, there was no problem when he heard this, but when Zhang Wei thought about it seriously, he understood what Feng Huayin meant, and immediately asked in a shylen manner: "Your Highness is worried about the county lord of Zhaoyue, so he said it directly, why do you want to beat around the bush?" ”
"This king sees that you have kicked your nose in the face recently?" Feng Huayin said with a smile.
Zhang Wei smiled dryly: "My subordinates don't dare to do this!" ”
"This king thinks you are very bold?" Feng Huayin glanced at the people around him.
This made Zhang Wei a little helpless, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't help but say: "Aren't your subordinates also thinking about your Highness, if something happens to this Zhaoyue County Lord, I'm afraid Your Highness will be very worried, right?" ”
This Zhang Wei, Feng Huayin shook his head helplessly, and walked in front: "Go and prepare, we should also go and meet this Lord Liu for a while." Feng Huayin knew what Ning Xiyue was doing behind their backs, and he couldn't delay time at this time, it seemed that he had to help them by the way.
"It's not...... Your Highness, aren't we going to Zhenjiang? Zhang Wei followed.
