Su Zhi lowered his eyes slightly, even if he was panicked in his heart, he didn't show a trace on his face.

"There's no one behind me."

Xie Zhang's pupils shrank, "You want to protect that person?" ”

"The weapon was made by me at the Anxi Iron Mine, and no one instigated me." She said calmly.

"What do you do refining weapons? Didn't know it was against the law? ”

"I'm a businessman, as long as it's a profitable business, I'll do it."

"Your Su family is not short of this terrible money!"

"How can a businessman be disgusted with a lot of money, I was just a fluke, thinking that the court would not find out."

"Then who are you going to sell these weapons to?"

"I haven't found a good buyer yet, or His Royal Highness King Qi, I'll sell it to you?"

King Qi's face sank, and he took two steps back, raised his whip and whipped it. With a snap, the whip hit his body, and there was an immediate blood mark.

Su Zhi bit his lower lip violently to prevent himself from shouting.

One whip was not enough, King Qi threw out two whips in a row, seeing Su Zhiwei's pale face, knowing that she was weak, and if she continued to fight, it would really kill her, so he stopped.

"You'd better be honest, don't forget that you're dead, and your brother is there!" King Qi gritted his teeth and said.

Su Zhi pursed his lips slightly, and then laughed: "Privately making weapons to conspire against the nine clans is a big crime, but it is only a private weapon, and there is no suspicion of rebellion, at most, it is to cut off the head, and it will not affect the family, why should His Royal Highness King Qi lie to me." ”

King Qi squinted, "Do you really want to carry it by yourself?" ”

"One person does things and one person does things, I have nothing to say."

King Qi took a deep breath and tightened his hand holding the whip, "You seem to be very close to King Chu, right?" ”

Su Zhiwei said with a smile: "I am a merchant girl, and he is the prince of Jin Zun and Yugui, how can we know each other." ”

"What about Xiao Dingbei, you two won't know each other, right?"

Su Zhiwei asked rhetorically, "So His Highness suspects Xiao Dingbei?" ”

"The king did not say so."

"If Your Highness is suspicious, simply arrest him and interrogate him."

King Qi was so angry that his face turned blue, although it was groundless suspicion, but the Criminal Department had the right to invite people to interrogate, but Xiao Dingbei was not an ordinary person, and there was no evidence to invite him to the Criminal Department, which would set off a lot of storms, especially the emperor who was still protecting him.

King Qi's eyes rolled, he took a step forward, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "It's Xie Rin who instructed you to make weapons privately." ”

"It's not."

"You've just been deceived by him, and you can get a light shot."

Su Zhiwei looked at King Qi quietly, "Do you want me to lead the scourge of privately made weapons to King Chu, let me give false testimony, and drag him into the water?" ”

King Qi's eyes deepened, "This king is teaching you to save yourself." ”

"That's a pity, I'm different from His Highness, I won't bite people indiscriminately."

"You!"

Su Zhiwei lowered his eyes, "The fact is that I made a weapon privately, and it has nothing to do with anyone. ”

King Qi saw that Su Zhiwei looked like he didn't eat oil and salt, so he was so angry that he raised the whip again, but the whip didn't go down and was taken away from behind.

King Qi turned around and saw Xiao Dingbei glaring at him with an angry face.

King Qi frowned, "Xiao Dingbei, this is the Criminal Department, you have repeatedly trespassed in, I am really the head of the Criminal Department, I am easy to bully, right?" You wait, I'll go into the palace and sue you. ”

Saying that, King Qi really wants to go.

Xiao Dingbei said coldly: "I just came from the palace, and the emperor has already ordered me to preside over the case with you." ”

"What?" King Qi frowned, "Let you investigate this case?" Shouldn't you avoid suspicion? ”

Xiao Dingbei raised his eyebrows, "The emperor trusts this king, so naturally there is no need to avoid suspicion." ”

King Qi almost gritted his teeth, the emperor's favor for Xiao Dingbei was too much, and it was a treatment that his own son did not have.

Xiao Dingbei looked at Su Zhiwei again, and when he saw the whip marks on her body, his face became colder.

"You beat her?" He glared at King Qi.

King Qi pursed his lips in fright by Xiao Dingbei's appearance of wanting to eat people, but thinking that he was handling the case according to the rules, he straightened his waist again.

"She refuses to confess, and I torture her, right?"

"That's right."

King Qi thought that he had pressed Xiao Dingbei, and was about to be proud, so he heard Xiao Dingbei say: "Be careful on the way back to the palace of King Qi, don't let people beat him." ”

"You dare!" King Qi couldn't believe what he heard, Xiao Dingbei dared to be so arrogant.

Xiao Dingbei laughed, "Did this king say anything?" ”

"You!"

Xiao Dingbei ignored King Qi, threw the whip to the ground, and then walked up to Su Zhiwei, ordered someone to unlock her, and then hugged her.

"This king is still interrogating her, what does King Yunbei mean by this?"

"The emperor asked the two of me to investigate this case, I am in charge of the interrogation of the Criminal Department, and King Qi, you need to go to Anxi, tap the number of weapons, and investigate the details."

"Since the two of us are investigating the case, the king ordered you to go to Anxi!"

"The emperor asked you to go, and you will leave early tomorrow morning."

King Qi didn't expect that he would be kicked out so quickly, and he was extremely angry, but he couldn't do it, so he could only watch Xiao Dingbei carry Su Zhiwei out of the execution room.

"Find a cell where you can get the sun, bring a bed, make a thicker mattress, and have a quilt and pillow that is clean, preferably new. Inside the cell, a stove was lit to drive away the dampness, and good gold charcoal was used. ”

As he spoke, Xiao Dingbei threw a piece of silver to the prison messenger and asked him to prepare.

Su Zhiwei leaned on Xiao Dingbei's arms, and suddenly settled down a lot.

After the prison messenger finished the cell, Xiao Dingbei carried Su Zhiwei in and put her on the bed.

He also ordered someone to buy gold sore medicine, but because it was inconvenient, she had to apply it herself. He painted his back, and he closed his eyes, and it ended up being sprinkled everywhere.

Su Zhiwei was speechless, "You can squint a slit." ”

"That's seen too." Xiao Dingbei said with a red face.

"It's just the back."

"That'...... All right. ”

I thought he was unhappy in this tone, but when Su Zhiwei looked back, he found that his face was flushed and he looked ashamed.

Seeing his reaction, Su Zhiwei knew that he had not had a woman in the past eight years, absolutely not.

With a good medicine, Xiao Dingbei relieved her that she didn't have to worry, since this case was investigated by him, he would definitely investigate it clearly, so that she would not be wronged.

Su Zhiwei frowned when he heard this, "It's true that I made weapons privately, it's also true that I broke the law, and no one wronged me." ”

Xiao Dingbei shook his head, "I know you, you won't make weapons privately." ”

"Xiao Dingbei ......"

"Although you don't want to name the person behind it, I can look it up. You must have been framed by that man, and I will find him out and try to clear your name. ”

Su Zhi was slightly silent, "Then who do you suspect?" ”

"Naturally, it's ......" Xiao Dingbei paused slightly, but still said honestly, "It must be Xie Rin." ”

Su Zhi thought about it slightly, in fact, as long as he went to Anxi to check, he would definitely find out Xie Rin's head, which showed that it was only a matter of time before he could do it.

And all she could do was keep her mouth shut and not shake Xie Rin out, so that he would have time to think of countermeasures.

"It's not him." Su Zhiwei said.

Xiao Dingbei's eyes darkened a little, as if he was injured, "Do you even want to hide it from me?" ”

"Actually, you really shouldn't have been involved in this case."

"Do you know what I gambled with the emperor?"

"Bet?"

"Well, I bet you don't have a private weapon."

"What about losing the bet?"

"I am guilty of the same sin as you."

Su Zhiwei closed his eyes and sighed heavily, "Xiao Dingbei!" ”
