Ling Yun wants to go to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department to meet Master Lu to learn about the whole story of He Chengqi's murder of Cai Ming; The lord of Huanyu on the side suddenly said, "I'm going too!" ”

Princess Evergreen looked at her son, who had already gone out, and then looked back at Huanyu, and between her frowning eyebrows, she unconsciously flashed a trace of imperceptible worry, and said softly: "Huanyu, it is not appropriate for you to go on that occasion." Listen to your mother, don't go, just wait for news in the house. ”

Huanyu's eyes were crumpled into broken shadows, Dai raised her eyebrows lightly, and said categorically: "Cheng Qi is my husband, he has such a big thing, can't I go and see it as a wife?" Mother, don't persuade me, I have to go this time! ”

After speaking, he bowed to He Yuting and Princess Changqing, and did not allow everyone to say anything, so he turned around and left.

Looking at Huanyu's distant back, Princess Evergreen said helplessly: "Alas, you said that this child, after so many years, she is still so willful, she really can't ...... her."

He Yuting sighed: "Go and go." Maybe it's a good thing that she's gone! ”

Princess Evergreen's watery eyes revealed a touch of melancholy, and she muttered to herself: "However, if she goes with Zhichao, will she poke out any other leaks?" In case ......"

At this point, she suddenly realized that she had lost her words. Looking up, Yu and the housekeeper He Luwei were both looking at her with an inexplicable strange gaze.

She hurriedly sneered and coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment. On such an occasion, in front of so many people, it is indeed inappropriate to discuss this topic.

He Yuting glanced at Princess Evergreen a little speechlessly, and slandered in his heart: "Evergreen is usually a good familyman, well-mannered, well-advanced and deserved, what a smart and decisive person; Why did he lose his proportions and become so hesitant as soon as he got to this son?

"If you don't care, if you care, you're messy—it seems that this is a good thing to say! ……”

Let's go back to Lingyun and the Lord of Huanyu. One person rode a horse, one person sat in a sedan chair, surrounded by a group of guards in the Hou Ye's Mansion, and went straight to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department.

Along the way, the two were silent, trying to distance themselves as much as possible. used to be a loving husband and wife, but now they have their own hearts and minds, and they are strangers.

What is called the vicissitudes of life, love is like water, sadness and melancholy are entangled in the hearts of two people at the same time, and no one can understand what kind of taste is in the hearts of the two......

Ling Yun and Huanyu finally came to the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department.

Lu Wenzheng and Yang Zhen were analyzing the case in the study, and suddenly saw the waiter Rong'er hurriedly come to report: "My lord, the lord of Huanyu outside is ...... With Commander Ling - ah no, it's the eldest prince of the Hou Ye Mansion who is visiting! ”

Lu Wenzheng and Yang Zhen were stunned, and hurriedly ordered to be invited. Suddenly, Ling Yun and the Huanyu County Lord walked in one after the other.

Lu Wenzheng hurriedly got up to greet him, bowed down and saluted: "Weichen see the county lord." ”

Huanyu maintained a calm look on his face, and said lightly: "Lord Lu doesn't need to be polite, let's calm down." ”

Lu Wenzheng slowly straightened up, lowered his hand and said respectfully: "County Lord, please sit down." ”

Huanyu was not polite and sat down.

Lu Wenzheng asked Rong'er to serve the best Longjing green tea, and then asked cautiously, "The county lord and Ling ...... Ah, the eldest prince came to our mansion, I don't know what to do? ”

Huanyu's eyebrows lowered slightly, and she said with a slightly sad face: "Actually, this palace is also here for the sake of Chengqi's little enemy. This enemy doesn't know self-love, eats wine and gets drunk, and actually does such a shameful thing and corrupts the lintel, which makes the parents' faces dull, and the palace also feels ashamed to see people! ”

Lu Wenzheng said: "The county lord doesn't have to be too sad and blame himself, there are many doubts in this case, many things are still under investigation, and the truth is still inconclusive, so please don't worry about the county lord and the eldest prince." ”

Huanyu's face showed a slight smile and said, "What does Lord Lu mean: Cheng Qi may have been wronged?" ”

Lu Wenzheng said: "Wechen doesn't dare to make a rash conclusion now. But the county lord, please relax, Wechen will definitely find out the case, if the second son is indeed wronged, Wechen will definitely give him justice. ”

Huanyu said quietly: "With Lord Lu's words, the palace will be relieved." - By the way, Lord Lu, where is Cheng Qi now, can this palace visit him? ”

Lu Wenzheng said: "The second prince is now temporarily living in a quiet courtyard in our mansion, and all the food, clothing, housing and transportation have been arranged for special people to support and take care of him, and this county lord can only rest assured." ——If the county lord needs to visit, how about Weichen ask Yang Zhen to accompany the county lord? ”

Huanyu nodded, "Okay." ”

In the course of the dialogue between Lord Huanyu and Lu Wenzheng, Ling Yun consciously put himself in the position of a bystander, and chose to keep a low profile and be silent.

Although his current identity is the eldest prince of the Hou Ye Mansion, he can't tell what kind of feelings or reasons he has, as soon as he came to the Shangshu Department of the Criminal Department, he naturally substituted himself into the position of Ling Yun, the guard commander of the Shangshu Mansion of the Criminal Department, who was ordered to work for Lu Wenzheng a few years ago and handled the case for him.

And Lu Wenzheng, Yang Zhen and others also tacitly accepted this positioning and state, and they did not feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable with each other at all.

That feeling is really subtle......

Under Yang Zhen's guidance, Ling Yun and Huanyu came to the courtyard where He Chengqi was detained.

Although the interior of the house is shabby, it is very clean, and the bedding and bedding on the couch are all new, which can be regarded as heaven and earth compared to those dark, damp and eerie cells.

He Chengqi curled up on the couch with a look of pride. Although he was only imprisoned for a few days, the tremendous mental torture and the drastic decline in his living conditions had made him seem to be a different person, describing himself as withered, mentally decadent, and languishing like an eggplant beaten by frost.

His cardigan was crumpled and disheveled; His hair was curled in a hairpin, his face was not bloody, his straight nose and sunken eye sockets became more and more distinct, sinking into a dark shadow.

At this time, he suddenly saw the two people in front of him, and immediately jumped off the couch barefoot like a savior, stumbled forward, and hugged the lord of Huanyu, and his dry eyes also glowed with hope.

"Ah, county lord! Princess! You're finally here! …… You know, these days, I can't sleep all night, and all I think about is you! I've been looking forward to your presence all the time, county lord, are you here to save me? Are you here to get them to let me out? ……”

Huanyu broke free from his entanglement, stared at him hatefully, and said angrily: "Let you out, you want to be beautiful!" You've drunk and committed heinous crimes, do you think you'll be able to get out of here easily? ”

He Chengqi shook his head frantically and shouted, "No, county lord! You believe me, I didn't kill anyone, I really didn't kill that girl! It was she who crashed into the wall and died, and I was wronged - please, county lord, you must save me, you must save me......"

Huanyu sighed: "You said you didn't kill anyone, is there any evidence?" Only if you can provide human or physical evidence, we can help you clear your name! ”

He Chengqi only felt that his thoughts were messy, and his mind was blank. He propped his hand and said blankly: "I don't know, I can't remember anything - county lord, tell me, what should I do?" ……”

Huanyu said angrily: "You are really a man with no interest!" You can't produce any evidence yourself, so how do I know what you should do? He turned and walked away.

He Chengqi staggered forward, grabbed her sleeve tightly, and cried: "County Lord, please, don't go, don't leave me alone!" Go back and beg my father, you must think of a way to get me out. As long as I can get out alive, I will definitely live a good life with you and never do anything sorry for you again......"

Huanyu's heart trembled, and she instantly felt that her chest was clogged, and she was so suffocated that her voice almost became hoarse, "Now you finally know that you regret it?" What did you do in the first place - this is also your own doing! ”

He Chengqi cried: "County Lord, I was wrong! …… I'm still so young, and I still have so many good days to enjoy, I really don't want to die! County Lord, forgive me this time, save me quickly! The county lord ......"

Huanyu pushed him away, and his voice revealed a bit of anger, "Look at your bear-like, greedy for life and afraid of death, you have no backbone at all!" Alas, I think I'm going to be strong in my life, how can I be a useless man like you! ”

As he spoke, he didn't look at him again, and walked away without looking back.

He Chengqi looked at Huanyu's back in frustration and drifted away, and couldn't help but sit on the ground in despair. It was as if he had been abandoned by the whole world, his face was pale, his eyes were empty, and he was just in a daze.

Ling Yun looked at his pitiful appearance, couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, turned around and wanted to leave, but heard He Chengqi say in the back: "Don't go, big brother!" Don't you even want to ignore me? ”

Ling Yun turned to look at him and said, "Cheng Qi—"

He Chengqi was crying: "Since my accident, my father and his old man disdainfully came to see me, and the county lord also treated me coldly; The only one who can help me now is you, big brother. Big brother, little brother is really wronged, please save me......"

Ling Yun pondered for a moment, "Cheng Qi, can you tell me more details about the situation on the day of the incident?" ”

He Chengqi nodded silently. He gently rubbed his somewhat dazed head with his hand, and recounted what had happened that day upside down.

Listening carefully to He Chengqi's narration, Ling Yun frowned and said in a deep voice: "There are indeed many doubts in the case. Cheng Qi, don't worry, I'll go to Master Lu and discuss the case with him. You can rest assured that as long as you have grievances, national law and justice will definitely return you to a clean slate. ”

He Chengqi's wet misty eyes were filled with some fine waves, and he said in a trembling voice: "Big brother, can you promise the little brother one thing?" ”

"You say."

He Chengqi said: "Lord Lu's fair and honest style is known to the younger brother, but the current Lord Lu is only afraid that he is weak; What's more, there are very few shrewd and capable people around him.

"If the eldest brother can help and assist Master Lu in investigating this case, the younger brother will have hope to clarify the grievances! ……”

Ling Yun's heart twitched unconsciously, "What? ……”
