As the crown prince, his opinions must inevitably attract enough attention from the royal family, but it is not a trivial matter to send the entire prince's palace to prison, and it must be treated with caution.

For the sake of safety, the old prince Wen Cun discussed quietly with several royal relatives on the left and right for a long time before he came to a decision.

The old prince swept his gaze over the crowd in front of him, and then, on behalf of the royal family, announced their resolution:

"This incident is too complicated, and in order to find out the truth of the matter, it is reasonable for Prince Yukawa to propose that he be sent to prison for review. ”

"However, Yukawa, considering that this matter is important and the implication is too wide, we should also give Yumiko a chance to prove herself. If you ask her again, as long as she can hand over that Li Xiaodong, or provide clues about his whereabouts, or she can provide evidence of self-evidence, then all the members of the Prince's Mansion don't need to go to prison. ”

After hearing this, Prince Yukawa was secretly annoyed, and did not happily put all the prince's mansion party in prison, which made him feel constrained.

However, in the face of such royal relatives, he couldn't help but be respectful and obedient, he bowed and promised, and then turned around, his eyes were already full of murderous intent.

"Yumiko, you heard clearly, this is your last chance, tell us, where is that Li Xiaodong?"

The maid of the Prince's Mansion, who held Yumiko in her arms, saw that Prince Yukawa's eyes had revealed a terrifying fierce light, and she couldn't help but feel frightened for a while, and her body trembled slightly.

Yumiko slowly wiped away the blood from the corner of her mouth, and then smiled weakly.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do you really want to know where he is? Li Xiaodong is a miracle doctor, a miracle doctor who can detoxify His Majesty, if you find him, will you be afraid of him? Will you kill him immediately?"

After hearing this, Prince Yukawa's face became more and more gloomy.

Up to now, especially when he heard Hirakawa Hachiro say some things about "Li Xiaodong", he was already convinced in his heart that the magic pill that saved His Majesty, who was about to die of poison, the master hidden behind Yumiko that he had always wanted to know, must be the Chinese man Li Xiaodong.

This time, that time.

Now what Prince Yukawa wants most is to put all the prince's mansion party in prison, and the existence of Li Xiaodong has become redundant for him, and even a hidden danger, if he can, he is not willing to dwell on this issue, he does not want to cause trouble.

However, the royal family wants to know where Li Xiaodong is, can he not ask like this?

He slowly pointed at Yumiko, and said with a grim gaze: "Don't talk so much nonsense, I'll ask you one last time, where is Li Xiaodong? If you don't say it, I will torture you again until I beat you to death." ”

Yumiko closed her eyes and confronted in silence.

She didn't know where Li Xiaodong was, and even if she knew, she wouldn't say it. Now she is completely desperate, Li Xiaodong once made it clear that he would not help her save the emperor, so what's the point of talking about him again?

She hated Li Xiaodong, hated him for staying out of the matter, and hated his indifference and selfishness, but at the same time, she was imagining in her heart, maybe at dusk after her death, maybe under a sunset, the man she hated and loved deeply, the man who filled her with regrets, contradictions and sorrows, would she think of her with emotion when she looked at the east?

Unfortunately, everything came to naught.

How good would it be if I could end this bad relationship with him with my own hands?

She thought.

"Yumiko, are you despising me by not speaking?" said Yukawa Prince Halberd at her.

"Don't be polite to her anymore, torture!" the crown princess said sharply.

An imperial family who had always supported the Prince's Mansion stood up and said, "Don't waste any more time. Yukawa, let's do it, we don't have hope for Yumiko anymore......"

One spoke, and the other royal family also shook his head and said, "Forget it, don't ask again, she won't say anything." I agree to immediately send all members of the Prince's Mansion to prison and conduct quarantine review. ”

"I agree. ”

"I agree. ”

"Seconded ......"

On this sunny morning, in this crowded palace compound, in the sound of seconding, Prince Yukawa put his hands behind his back, and the corners of his mouth hooked a smile that was difficult to catch.

"Obey my orders, and immediately escort Prince Hitochi, Princess Michiko, all the personnel of the subordinate prince's palace, and the priest of the shrine, Hachiro Hirakawa, to prison immediately. ”

"Hey!" Lieutenant Colonel Ito, who was leading the troops, bowed his head, and then, turning around, gathered the brigade of guards, and hurried in from outside the courtyard.

Suddenly, the cries rang out one after another, and the people outside the house were driven into a heap, surrounded by a group of guards armed with guns, and the people hiding in the mansion were escorted out one after another by search soldiers.

"Yumiko, Yumiko, why don't you speak...... Do you know where that man is......"

Surrounded by a group of soldiers, Yumiko's mother cried out in grief, and when she saw that the entire palace was about to be destroyed, she began to hate that she had such a daughter.

"Don't cry, Yumiko did the right thing! Don't bow to strong enemies, don't betray others, always maintain a noble and proud backbone, we should be proud to have such a good daughter!" Prince Renzhi's sad face was already glistening with tears.

Yumiko looked at her parents with tears in her eyes, she shouted hoarsely: "I'm sorry, my daughter is sorry for you, Yumiko doesn't want this, Yumiko wants to save her grandfather, Yumiko just doesn't want her grandfather to be killed by them......"

Smack, a heavy slap knocks Yumiko down.

The crown princess's face was full of viciousness, and she pointed at Yumiko and said: "When you die, you dare to talk nonsense, if Your Majesty dies, you will be killed!"

"Someone, hit me hard, live or die, beat me!" the princess scolded.

The soldiers who were executing stepped forward in time, and two of them grabbed Yumiko's hands and let her stand on the ground, and the other two raised their torture rods high, gritted their teeth and fought hard!

Knowing that the crown princess and the crown prince both had murderous intentions, the execution soldiers no longer hit Yumiko's back buttocks, but hit the heavy torture rod hard at Yumiko's waist!

At the critical moment, only two popping sounds were heard, and two small pebbles shot fiercely, causing the two guards to scream, and the human and torture rods rolled to the side at the same time.

"What man!?"

"Who is it!?"

Lieutenant Colonel Ito, who was in charge of leading the guard, quickly pulled out his pistol, and then quickly blocked the front of Prince Yukawa with his body, vigilantly looking at the direction where the wind broke just now, a window in the corner.

The other soldiers reacted quickly, and they all picked up their guns and lined up in front of several royal clansmen.

A row of black muzzles, all aimed at that window.

However, a voice that seemed to be a young man's voice came from the direction of the main entrance hall.
