A day later, the fifth prince, Ying Jingyu, was severely tortured in the sky prison and was bruised and bruised, but he kept in mind not to bring trouble to King Ze, even if his tongue was bitten and his mouth was full of blood, he only had one sentence.

"Father wants to punish, punish me alone."

As for what news he received, why he came to the capital, and how he entered the Forbidden City, he didn't say a word.

Behind the criminal investigation room, there is an empty room, and there is a grand master's chair in the empty room, and Yue Huang sits there with a sullen face.

The old Mao Gonggong was on the side. The wound on his arm had been treated and was tied with a white bandage.

Hearing the sound of torture next door, Ying Jingyu insisted that Qingshan usually only had one sentence, "It's my fault alone."

The old Mao Gonggong hunched over and gave a dry, awkward laugh, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince is sincere."

Yue Huang tightly grasped the handle of the grand master's chair with both hands, and a layer of cold air shrouded his whole body.

Ying Jingyu is not only sincere, he is simply a lump of iron, he will never be enlightened, but if he can be smarter and say a few things like King Wu, he doesn't need to be imprisoned in the sky prison.

The strong smell of blood came from the criminal investigation room, making people sick.

Yue Huang Ying Jun suppressed his discomfort and said angrily, "Go and ask him if he met Jiu'er in Xunyang."

"Yes." The old Mao Gonggong bowed and walked behind the screen, beckoned to Niu Zongliang, the mayor of the imperial city, who was executing the execution, and explained Yue Huang's words.

After receiving the order, Niu Zongliang walked towards Ying Jingyu who was tied to the wooden pillar with his big belly, and held Ying Jingyu's chin covered with bruises with a whip, "Say! Did you meet King Ze in Xunyang? Didn't you?" King Ze asked you to come?"

Ying Jingyu didn't know that King Ze had the authority to send troops to the capital at any time, and suddenly heard Niu Zongliang's question, his pupils shrank suddenly, "No! I'm listening to Fengya, and I haven't met anyone!"

In any case, he couldn't implicate King Ze.

Behind the wall, Yue Huang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he coughed angrily.

The old Mao Gonggong supported Yue Huang to comfort him, "Your Majesty, the fifth prince must not mean that."

How did Emperor Yue know what Ying Jingyu meant? He seemed to never be able to communicate with this son, and he would never be on the same channel when talking to him.

On the other side, Niu Zongliang had scalded Ying Jingyu with a soldering iron for two rounds.

But Ying Jingyu's mouth was tightly closed, and he insisted that he had never seen King Ze.

Yue Huang coughed for a long time before he calmed down, grabbed the old Mao Gonggong by the collar, "Go and ask, how did he get over the checkpoint all the way?"

From Xunyang to Langya, the capital of Yue, there are still two passes along the way. If there is no talisman, the soldiers guarding the pass will not let them go.

Old Mao Gonggong looked at Yue Huang with a gloomy face, and his eyes seemed to swallow people.

The old Mao father-in-law hurriedly went to pass on a message to Niu Zongliang.

When Ying Jingyu heard this question, he was so frightened that his soul almost jumped out of his body.

He was able to pass the level because of the talisman that King Ze gave him, but he didn't know what talisman it was, but if the emperor found out about this, he would definitely not be able to keep King Ze.

Ying Jingyu could only grit his teeth and said, "Anyway, I do things alone and take care of them."

Yue Huang's face was as cold as frost.

The door of the cell was opened, and the person sent to the checkpoint came back and reported the results of the investigation to Emperor Yue.

The matter is already very clear, Ying Jingyu came from the checkpoint only after taking King Ze's talisman.

The Emperor Yue coughed again and again excitedly, and said to the old Mao Gonggong, "I knew it, it was my Jiuer who saved me."

Old Mao Gonggong said: "Yes, yes."

Others don't know, but the old Mao Gonggong knows best how much Yue Huang has a preference for Ninth Prince Ze Wang.

The Emperor Yue grabbed the investigation results presented below, "Go, go and throw this in the face of that bastard Ying Jingyu! Let's see if he still admits it!"

The old Mao father-in-law went out with the paperwork.

After a while, Niu Zongliang opened the document in front of Ying Jingyu, "Your Highness Fifth Prince, what else do you have to say?"

Ying Jingyu opened his eyes wide, and looked at the document in front of him in the flickering firelight. His forehead was covered in blood, and soon cold sweat gathered.

He felt a pang of sadness that he could not keep King Ze.

Tears of blood rolled down his dark cheeks, "Yes, I stole Ninth Brother."

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yue couldn't bear it any longer, slapped the chair handle hard, stood up angrily, walked a few steps quickly, walked to the criminal investigation room, pointed at Ying Jingyu and shouted: "Hit me, give me a hard blow!" Hit him to see if he is still stubborn."

At this time, Emperor Yue knew very well that it was indeed King Ze who sent Ying Jingyu to come to the capital for emergency treatment, but Emperor Yue thought that Ying Jingyu was gritting his teeth and concealing it in order to gain merit, and he was extremely disappointed in this son.

"Father—how are you here?——" Ying Jingyu looked at Yue Huang who suddenly appeared, his eyes widened, and he couldn't react.

And Yue Huang was angrily crumbling, "Don't call my father Huang!"

Emperor Yue really didn't understand how he could give birth to such a stupid son, and such a clumsy confession was full of loopholes.

Moreover, does Ying Jingyu think that he can hide what he does?
Yue Huang only needs to investigate a little bit, and everything will come to light.

What's more, Ying Jingyu's ability to lie is not superb at all.

But what Emperor Yue didn't understand was that the reason why Ying Jingyu was so blunt was because he thought that doing so could save King Ze.

It's not the same thing that two people think.

With the support of the old Mao Gonggong, Yue Huang left angrily.

After Emperor Yue left, Niu Zongliang continued to torture the Fifth Prince Ying Jingyu.

"Your Highness Fifth Prince, don't blame the old minister for being cruel, this is what the emperor meant."

Looking at the back of Emperor Yue leaving, Ying Jingyu suddenly remembered that King Ze also gave himself a letter to bring to Emperor Yue.

"Father! Father!" When Ying Jingyu spoke again, Yue Huang had already walked away.

"Changshi Niu, please tell my father, my ninth younger brother has a letter to let me show my face to my father." Ying Jingyu begged Niu Zongliang covered in blood.

Niu Zongliang chuckled, "Didn't you say you haven't seen King Ze?"

Hearing what Niu Zongliang said, Ying Jingyu didn't know whether he should hand over the letter from King Ze to Emperor Yue. He was very troubled. The water in the court is too deep. It would be great if King Ze was here , will tell him what to do.

When he was thinking hard, he was beaten again and again until he passed out.

Fortunately, Niu Zongliang still felt that the matter was of great importance in the end, so he presented Ying Jingyu's only statement to Emperor Yue
It was already a day later when Emperor Yue finally knew that King Ze had a letter for him.

During this period of time, Emperor Yue was exhausted due to the forced palace. He was originally a chronically ill person. After these four days of tossing, he was already lying in bed and unable to get up this day.

Eunuch Shun said beside the bed: "Your Majesty, when the servant was serving the fifth prince a few days ago, he changed all his clothes and didn't see the letter. I'm afraid what the fifth prince said may not be true."

The old Mao Gonggong had a different opinion, "Although His Highness the Fifth Prince is dull, he is not a liar."

Emperor Yue really missed King Ze so much, even though he was lying on the bed and couldn't get up, he still asked someone to summon the fifth prince, Ying Jingyu.
