Chapter 174 Help
Hearing this, Rao Lei's worried heart was relieved, and his expression became a little more uneasy, but he knew the purpose of this incident in his heart.
"Because before this, the official had been doubting the princess, thinking that the princess was not a reliable person, and even worried that the princess would be Tian Ci's accomplice, so he did not dare to tell the matter."
His eyebrows were firm and he didn't look like he was lying.
"You just refused to tell me, were you doubting me? But why were you willing to tell me all those secrets before that?" Xiao Qingqing asked again.
"Before this, I did regret a little. I regretted telling this secret so easily. I was even more afraid of being killed because of my recklessness, and even harming the villagers who helped me. At that time, I just felt that the princess had saved me. I am a good person and will not be my enemy, but after calming down, I am worried that this is all a scam, just to lure me into the bait."
Just because Xiao Qingqing had prepared so much before, it seemed that he had known that something like this would happen tonight, especially since he did not hurt any victims.
This made him have to suspect that Xiao Qingqing directed and staged the fire and set it on his own.
Xiao Qingqing nodded, such suspicion was reasonable.
Then I heard him continue: "But after I learned about what the princess did for the victims, I knew that the princess was definitely not in the same group as Tian Ci, a selfish villain. This is also the reason why the official came back. I hope the princess can help the official."
"Why don't you suspect that all of this was carefully designed by me to get you to take the bait at this time? Everything I did before was just a cover-up, just to wait until now so I can kill you!" Her voice was sinister and cold, It seemed like a sharp blade in the cold winter, biting to the bone.
"Now that I'm back, I firmly believe in my choice and believe that the princess is not that kind of person. I also hope that the princess can help me and the people who are suffering." Rao Lei kowtowed and bowed.
"It seems that you really care about the people, so it's not impossible to help."
At this moment, a cold male voice came from the inner room, which instantly shocked Rao Lei, who was still saluting just now, and he looked at the inner room warily.
He never imagined that there were other people here.
He looked at Xiao Qingqing with a complicated expression. Did he lose the bet this time?
As the wheel sounded, Feng Molin also came out of the inner room.
At this time, he was sitting in a wheelchair, not looking at Rao Lei, trying hard to play the role of a disabled prince.
Xiao Qingqing was not too surprised by his appearance, but paid attention to Rao Lei's expression.
"Don't be nervous. I am the King of the Northern Wilderness, and it is normal here. Or do you mean you don't believe me?"
Facing Feng Molin's questioning, Rao Lei tried to calm himself down, knowing that only Xiao Qingqing could be trusted at the moment.
He shook his head: "It's not that the official doesn't believe in the prince and the princess, it's just that he has seen too many officials protecting each other. The sudden appearance of the prince makes the official afraid."
"You can trust me and the prince. I don't believe you haven't heard of the reputation of the Northern Wilderness King. The prince went into battle to kill the enemy with great achievements, which made the enemy's countenance change. He is the god of war general of our dynasty. Just these alone are not worth mentioning." Can be compared with those treacherous villains." Xiao Qingqing told Feng Molin's past and what the palace had done for the people.
Feng Molin coughed slightly and signaled Xiao Qingqing not to continue talking. Just listening to her words felt like she was showing off.
Hearing this, Rao Lei lowered his head in shame and apologized: "I am ignorant and have questioned the prince. I am willing to accept the punishment."
Feng Molin waved his hand: "I don't blame you, but everything must be based on evidence. Since you said that the current disaster was caused by Tian Ci, do you have evidence?" Rao Lei didn't hesitate at all. He took out an account book and stood up and handed it over, with these letters attached to it.
"My lord and princess, this account book records Tian Ci's crime of embezzlement and bribery, and those letters are evidence that Tian Ci exchanged information with others and put pressure on him to cover up the matter, which led to the disaster."
When he handed over the evidence, he seemed to see hope.
Feng Molin took it from his hand and looked at the numbers on the account book. The series of numbers were shocking and made him frown. The embezzled money could already support people in two cities.
Looking at the letters again, Feng Molin's hands shook more and more, and the anger on his face became heavier.
Xiao Qingqing also took a look at it. There were all kinds of shocking things written on it, but Tian Ci's writing was so understated, as if the death caused by the disaster was as light as a feather.
"It's so abominable that there are still people who don't take human life seriously at this time!" Xiao Qingqing complained fiercely.
Feng Molin's hand clenched into a fist, and the envelope in his hand was almost ravaged. He raised his fist. Rao Lei was also shocked when he saw this scene. Could it be that Feng Molin wanted to hit him?
Rao Lei shrank his neck in fright, his eyes filled with fear.
There was only a bang, and the door next to Feng Molin was unfortunately destroyed, and his face was full of anger.
He once fought desperately on the battlefield in order to bring peace to the people and hope that they could live a good life. However, Tian Ci treated human life as nothing with just a few words. He would never allow such a person to exist in this world. world.
When he looked at Rao Lei in front of him again, he said coldly: "This matter must not be tolerated like this!"
These words gave Rao Lei hope.
But he saw Feng Molin handing the evidence in his hand back to him again, and said: "Since you entered Kyoto just to file a complaint, then you can do what you want to do. I will send people to protect you in secret. Your safety."
Rao Lei was stunned. He thought Feng Molin would take action to solve the matter.
"I can have people protect you anytime and anywhere, but I will never get involved in this matter. Your Majesty is already wary of me. If I get involved, I'm afraid your matter won't be able to be done. ." Feng Molin did not shy away and told Rao Lei the truth.
Rao Lei was shocked. He had also heard that the current Holy Emperor seemed to be afraid of King Beihuang. He didn't believe it at first, but he believed it after hearing what Feng Molin said personally.
But there are people who can protect him and are willing to support his actions, which he is grateful for.
"Thank you, Prince and Princess. I will definitely suffer for this world and ask for an explanation from the dead people." Rao Lei bowed deeply to the two of them.
Feng Molin nodded slightly, and then called Feng Yi: "You will protect his personal safety in the next few days, and inform the prince of this matter."
Feng Yi was about to agree, but hesitated after hearing what he said next. He looked at Feng Molin with some worry: "Your Highness, His Highness the Crown Prince has always had a gentle personality. I am worried that His Highness the Crown Prince cannot handle this matter well."
The matter was very important at this time, but what the prince had done before made him feel uneasy.
