Chapter 199: Don't go into the tiger's den
Nalan was in a hurry, and when he saw Ruyi who was dying of anger on the ground, the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, his eyes widened with anger, and even the corners of his mouth were shaking.
"Yu'er, my Yu'er!"
After a while, he reacted, the successive accidents in the house were about to drive him crazy, and now even Ruyi has gone, Nalan Guangyao suddenly looked like a teenager old, and almost fainted on his feet.
"Master, you mourn!" At this time, the eyebrows on the side spoke.
Mu Xiu snorted coldly, "Master, this woman killed the second miss, you must seek justice for the second miss!" ”
It was precisely because Mu Xiu knew that the person who changed his face was Nan Qiao that he deliberately opened this mouth.
Nalan Guangyao came back to his senses, his face contorted in pain, and the fist at his side clenched, "You... You killed my Yu'er, who are you? Ben Hou has no grievances with you, why do you want to kill my daughter! ”
Nan Qiao only reacted at this time, and before going out, Hongling disguised herself, so it was normal for Nalan Guangyao not to recognize it.
She gently put down Ruyi, stood up and whispered guiltily, "I didn't mean it, this matter was framed by someone, I will find a way..."
Before she finished speaking, Nalan Guangyao slapped her, Nan Qiao thought that the palm was about to fall on her, but in the next second, a black shadow flashed in front of her, and when she stood firm again, she had already avoided Nalan Guangyao a few meters away, and the person who protected her was Ji Wuyu.
"Marquis Zhongyong, don't do it until the matter is clear!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
King Pingding, who has always been cold and silent, would actually speak for a woman, and this woman is clearly a murderer, everyone saw it, and she stabbed with a short knife that became longer. Into Ruyi's chest.
"Lord Wang, what do you mean? She killed Miss Yan in this Hou Mansion, does the prince still want to favor her! Nalan Guangyao's eyes were red, and he stared at the person behind Ji Wuyu angrily.
And at this moment, everyone began to talk about it.
"I heard that King Pingding was engaged to Nalan Wuyu before, and now Nalan Wuyu has died tragically, but he is protecting another woman, why is he so indifferent?" Said the uninformed.
The other person immediately picked up the words, "Of course Ghost Face Yama is indifferent, don't you see the mask on his face?" Children cry when they see it. ”
"What happened to the previous county lord of the Southern Jin Dynasty, who took people to the palace and abandoned this woman in chaos?" The more you think about it, the more you don't understand.
"What's this, isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"
"That's right, it's just that this woman killed the second miss of the Hou Mansion, I'm afraid that the prince did it so obviously, could it be that he instructed the people around him to kill the second miss?"
"I think so, is there anything else that Ghost Face Yama can't do?"
Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, at first it was about Nan Qiao killing people, and everyone started to pour dirty water on Ji Wuyu.
Ji Wuyu looked indifferent, and Nan Qiao knew that if he continued like this, he would die a satisfactory death, which he instructed his subordinates to do, so how should he explain this matter to the emperor?
Nalan Guangyao was obviously excited at this time, and in the successive grief, he lost the ability to think, and what he heard was what he heard.
"Lord Wang, did you instruct your subordinates to do it? If not, why do you protect this woman so much? ”
Ji Wuyu under the mask couldn't see any other expression, he only felt that those eyes were extremely indifferent, as if he was answering an inconsequential matter,
"It's not!"
Obviously, the answer to these two words aroused Nalan Guangyao's anger towards Ji Wuyu,
"Then please ask the prince to hand over this girl, otherwise, even if you sue the royal court, you have to seek justice for the little girl!"
Although Ruyi is average-looking, she is the most powerful among her daughters, and she is the daughter of Yuan's family, so he has always been very fond of Ruyi.
Now that Ruyi is so unexplained and dead, Nalan Guangyao can't swallow this breath of nothing.
"Father, Ruyi wasn't killed by her!"
The words that were not loud made everyone's eyes move to the neglected Nalan Suru.
The corners of Nalan Suru's mouth were bruised, her complexion was very bad, as if she would faint if she was not careful, and she was dressed in tatters, so no one paid attention to her and the dying auspiciousness at first.
"Daughter, my daughter just saw the hand of the man in black next to Ruyi." Weak, she finally managed to say this.
But Nalan Guangyao didn't believe it at all, he only believed what he saw with his own eyes.
"Ru'er?" After snorting coldly, "You are happier than anyone else when Yu'er is dead, don't you know what you think when you are a father?" In the future, won't this Zhongyong Marquis Mansion be your master? The father is not dead! ”
Nalan Guangyao ridiculed every word, and every word was heart-wrenching, not only did he not believe Nalan Suru's words, but also sarcastically mocked her secretly in his heart.
"Father... It's really not... She, no..."Before she finished speaking, Nalan Suru fainted directly to the ground.
Nalan Guangyao was too lazy to care about Nalan Suru's life or death, and waved his hand,
"Come on, take it for Ben Hou!"
When the words fell, many government soldiers with knives rushed over in an orderly manner, almost surrounding the place.
Ji Wuyu's eyes swept slightly, and a little killing intent leaked in his cold gaze.
"Lord Wang, please get out of the way!"
Even if this matter pierced the glory of Tiannalan, he was not afraid, but now that he had ruined his family, he felt less and less afraid.
Ji Wuyu was still quietly blocking Nan Qiao's side, the hand in his sleeve kept holding Nan Qiao's hand with his backhand, and the familiar warmth spread all over Nan Qiao's body, she hesitated for a second and then suddenly broke free,
Nan Qiao stood next to him from behind Ji Wuyu, "Master Hou, I do things by myself, and I have nothing to do with the prince!" ”
Even if it was a manslaughter, Ruyi did die at her hands, and she wanted to see who wanted to harm her like this.
The man next to him glanced at him, and there was a domineering tone in his deep voice,
"Go down!"
Some things can't be explained clearly, Ji Wuyu never explains, he will only do what he wants, he understands her intentions, Nan Qiao, it is precisely because of this mutual trust that she can't indulge herself and let him suffer together for no reason.
Even if he didn't care, but she cared.
Nan Qiao turned her face away, looking at him with complicated eyes, and then her eyes gradually turned into a clear one, she reached out and took his hand, and wrote a few words in his palm.
Ji Wuyu stared at her for a few seconds, then finally turned his back to her.
The corners of Nan Qiao's lips were slightly hooked, and he took a few steps forward, everyone was slightly surprised, and with a slightly puzzled expression, I don't know what Nan Qiao wants to do?
Seeing Nan Qiao walking a few steps and standing there alone, Nalan Guangyao waved his hand, and just as the soldiers were about to go up, Nan Qiao suddenly said loudly,
"The matter of the case belongs to the Criminal Department to investigate, I only listen to the Criminal Department what to do, Master Hou doesn't seem to have the right to bring me to justice!"
The soldiers stopped, because not far behind Nan Qiao, there was still a Ji Wuyu standing, although he didn't cut this way, but that innate momentum was enough to make people retreat and dare not be presumptuous.
"Killing pays for life, so many people have seen it, even if Ben Hou kills you now, it's understandable!" Nalan Guangyao's forehead was twisted into a Sichuan eyebrows.
"One of the laws of Daye is to file a case, before the matter has not been tried by the criminal department, even if someone sees me kill someone, they still have to go through a process of evidence collection and trial, Hou Ye hastily asked for my life is not to believe the adults of the criminal department... Or don't you take Daye's law seriously? ”
Her voice is neither light nor heavy, but it is hard to refute.
In addition, the Shangshu of the Criminal Department is here, if Nalan Guangyao has to forcibly deal with it, first, he will not give face to the Criminal Department, and secondly, he will openly disobey the provisions of the law, and then he will only be afraid that he will say that the Marquis of Zhongyong is in a high position, and he will not take the emperor in his eyes more and more.
If this sentence really spreads, I am afraid that it will not be cost-effective to lose the official matter and lose my head at that time.
At this time, Nalan Guangyao looked at this and that, hovering back and forth between reason and anger, and after hesitating for a moment,
"Lord Shangshu, take this woman back to the Criminal Department, and sentence her as soon as possible after filing the case and collecting evidence!"
Whether it is murder or not, as long as you go to prison, is it so easy to get out? Nalan Guangyao thought that after Nan Qiao entered, he would quietly let people do it in prison and never leave him alive.
So right now, in order to look good on everyone's face, I can only endure it first.
Shangshu of the Criminal Department smiled, a little flattered, "Master Hou, where is this, as long as you prepare a case, this murder is generally a life for a life, and this woman will not live for a few days." ”
Hearing what Shangshu of the Criminal Department said, Nalan Guangyao seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, so he reluctantly nodded.
Finally, before dark, Nan Qiao was taken to the prison.
The sound of locking the iron door came from the guard, escorting her jailer away, and through the shiny iron windows, Nan Qiao could clearly see the blackened walls of the porch, where there had been a fire when she came to visit the prison a few days ago.
Perhaps, since Aunt Zhao was imprisoned here, she has been in the trap set by others, and she is the prey struggling in the trap, no matter what she does, she can't seem to escape from that invisible cage.
She picked up a weed in the boredom and began to draw circles on the ground.
Before leaving Nalan Mansion, she had written four words in Ji Wuyu's palm, 'Don't enter the tiger's den'.
Maybe the two of them have a good heart, even if they sometimes look at each other, they can understand what the other party is thinking, even if she changes her face, Ji Wuyu can still recognize her at a glance.
Reaching out and touching his face, Nan Qiao shook his head helplessly, recalling the picture of Ruyi's tragic death, Nan Qiao sighed helplessly, and finally lowered his head.
"It's time to eat, it's your meal!" A small bowl was stuffed through the crack in the iron window, and at a glance, I saw a white-flour steamed bun on it, and a few green vegetables next to it seemed to be pressed under the steamed bun.
Nan Qiao didn't have an appetite at all, so he let the steamed bun be left there.
Now as long as she doesn't tell her true identity, others don't know who she is.
