Leng Wang spoils his wife: the prince's wife is strictly controlled

Chapter 162
"Yesterday?" Ruan Xiyue was wronged now, and she couldn't help saying: "It's absurd for the empress to say that my daughter-in-law was in the palace yesterday. Yesterday, my daughter-in-law was tricked into a small forest by a letter, and she was rescued only late at night in the trap. How could that happen?" What about murdering the Crown Princess in the Eastern Palace?"

The emperor let out a sigh of relief: "You all... Tell me about what you saw yesterday and what you heard. Anyone who dares to lie will be punished by the nine clans!"

A few maids said in fear: "The servant is the maid guarding the gate. Princess Yu went to the East Palace in the afternoon, saying that she wanted to talk to the Crown Princess, and brought some food in. The servant does not know what happened afterwards."

Luxiu knelt on the ground, weeping and said: "Your Majesty, this servant just heard Princess Yu insulting the Crown Princess, saying that she is a hen that can't lay eggs, that she is not a phoenix flying on a branch, and that the Crown Princess is not good enough for you." Your Royal Highness, when the servants and others came in, the princess said that she had a stomachache, and the servants saw a lot of blood..."

"That's right, Princess Yu must have murdered the little prince of the Crown Princess, the servants and servants all witnessed it with their own eyes." A group of people continued.

And Ruan Xiyue was finally speechless, how could she escape for herself?Thinking about it, he couldn't help frowning, and froze in place, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, the queen cast her eyes on her, and asked slowly: "Princess Yu, the evidence is conclusive now, can you be convicted now?"

"Can the Empress only rely on these certifications to prove that her daughter-in-law harmed the Crown Princess?" Ruan Xiyue smiled lightly and said unhurriedly: "These people are all maids of honor in the Eastern Palace. Who can guarantee that they are not A gang? Want to frame your daughter-in-law?"

Lvxiu pointed to Ruan Xiyue and said: "You are a vicious person, my mother should have treated you so well and treated you as a sister, but you actually killed my mother's little prince and made her never be able to live again." Give birth, you vicious woman!"

"I didn't, I didn't do such a thing..." After speaking, Ruan Xiyue shook her head and denied it, but everyone at the scene insisted that she did it, and it was useless for Ruan Xiyue to explain.

The emperor waved his hand and said: "Put Princess Yu into the jail, I'm tired and don't want to see her."

Gu Yuxie was stopped by the guards outside the palace, and after seeing Ruan Xiyue being escorted out, he said with a serious face: "Father, I believe that my princess will never do such a thing, besides yesterday was I'm with her, so the matter of the crown princess has nothing to do with the princess."

"You still know that he is a princess?" The emperor became even angrier when he mentioned this matter, and immediately opened his lips and said: "From now on, no one is allowed to intercede, otherwise they will all be punished!"

Gu Yuhong heard about this when he was still outside the palace, and hurried back quickly. Seeing Qin Yuyan lying on the bed dying of breath, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Luxiu cried in a low voice: "Your Highness, the servant is useless. I didn't take good care of the empress, and I didn't take good care of the little prince in the womb. Please punish the servant!"

Gu Yuhong didn't have the mood to punish them now, so he sat beside Qin Yuyan, held her hand, and said with a stiff expression, "I'm sorry Yuyan, I'm late."

"Your Highness, it's Princess Yu, the one who killed His Highness and your empress' little prince." Luxiu said anxiously.

"Shut up." Gu Yuhong glanced coldly, Ruan Xiyue was with him the whole time last night, could it be that there is something wrong with him, that he could go to the palace to kill the little prince.

Luxiu lowered her eyes, with a look of unwillingness: "Your Highness wants to make decisions for your empress! If your highness ignores her, then wouldn't your empress be too pitiful?"

"No matter who did it, I will never let him go." Gu Yuhong said coldly.

At this time, Ruan Xiyue, who was locked in the prison, quietly looked at the sky in front of her. She couldn't stay here alone, otherwise she would not be able to clear up her grievances.

"Brother guard, can you tell me something?" She whispered.

The gatekeeper snorted coldly and said, "No, Princess Yu, you can repeat the crime now. If we do things for you, wouldn't we be seeking our own death?"

After hearing these words, Ruan Xiyue also felt a little helpless, and immediately suppressed her expression, and sat on the haystack with a depressed expression on her face.

"I was obviously attracted by that letter yesterday and left Prince Yu's mansion. I was not in the palace at all, but these maids said they saw me? If they didn't lie, they must have seen me. In this way, there must be someone Changing your appearance into my image, it is right to murder the Crown Princess." As she spoke, her expression became more and more complicated.

My mind was in chaos, thinking that many people thought it was impossible, but Ruan Mingyu suddenly came to mind.She wanted to marry His Highness the Crown Prince wholeheartedly, and hated herself so much, so it was very possible that she would do this, but was it really her?Even Ruan Xiyue was a little uncertain about this.

Gu Yuxian had been kneeling at the door of the imperial study room waiting for the emperor to summon him, seeing that the sky had darkened and the people inside were still silent, he frowned.

At this time, Eunuch Zhao walked out slowly, and said helplessly, "Why is Lord Yu so stubborn? The emperor has already left through the side door, and the prince should go back quickly. The emperor is angry today, and it is useless to say anything." of."

In fact, Gu Yuxian never knew that what he said was useless, but when he thought of his beloved woman suffering in prison, his heart felt as uncomfortable as being pricked by a needle.

The person in charge of the Ministry of Punishment is the Ninth Prince. After receiving the news, she also rushed back from outside the capital. When she saw Gu Yuxian kneeling here, she said, "Brother Qi, get up quickly, the emperor is afraid today. I won't see you anymore."

"Ninth Brother, you are here." Gu Yuxian smiled faintly.

Gu Yumo hummed lightly, and seeing his appearance, he couldn't help feeling a little worried: "I've heard about Mrs. Qi, I'm going to the Ministry of Criminal Justice to see if there is anything I can do to help Mrs. Seven .”

With Gu Yumo's words, Gu Yuxie felt relieved, and said with a straight face, "Ninth Brother, Seventh Brother, thank you first."

"Don't say thank you. You and I are brothers, and she is my sister-in-law. This is what I should do." After speaking, Gu Yumo turned and left.

Ruan Xiyue was interrogated by Zhou Tong, the servant of the Criminal Ministry. Behind this person was the Bai family's support, that is, the eldest wife of the Ruan family. Of course, it is impossible to let Ruan Xiyue out alive now.

He stood up against the case and said seriously: "Who is in the hall, why are you complaining?"

"You don't know who this princess is?" She said coldly.

After meeting Ruan Xiyue's eyes, Zhou Tong's eyes flashed a strange look, what kind of eyes are so full of murderous intent?His throat rolled up and down, and then he hummed softly and said: "Princess Yu, you have already entered here, why are you so proud?"

"If you guessed correctly, you are Zhou Tong, the minister of punishment, right? The eldest lady of the Ruan family is your aunt, right?" Ruan Xiyue raised her eyebrows and looked at the person in front of her.

I don't know why, after hearing Ruan Xiyue's words, he became a little worried, and immediately said in a low voice: "How did you know?" He followed his mother's surname and did not have Bai, but this woman knew His identity is really incredible.

Facing his question, Ruan Xiyue just smiled faintly, with a hint of mystery in her smile, and said after a long while: "Because in the eyes of this princess, no one has a secret at all, and neither of you Same."

"Who the hell are you?" Zhou Tong immediately became vigilant.

Ruan Xiyue said with a smile that was not a smile: "Why, aren't you going to try the case, continue? This princess really wants to know what the truth is."

Zhou Tong was still hesitant at first, but after thinking about his background, he became serious. He has the support of the Zhou family and the Bai family, so what else is there to worry about?After thinking about it, he became serious, and said solemnly: "I don't care what your identity is, it's annoying to come here, my responsibility is to investigate the case, Princess Yu, you can tell the truth if you want to know it soon. You, come here!"

"My lord!" Several jailers came over and said with cupped hands.

Zhou Tong said in a nonchalant manner: "This criminal doesn't know how to repent, and dares to commit the following crimes. Let her experience the torture in Zhou Guotian's prison, so that she can have a long memory."

Ruan Xiyue couldn't help frowning: "Is it torture? Is this an attempt to extract a confession by torture?"

Zhou Tong had a cold face: "What are you doing in a daze, why don't you make a move?"

The jailer tied Ruan Xiyue to the pillar, waved the whip soaked in salt water, and beat her. Ruan Xiyue just looked at these people in front of her with those cold eyes. She didn't know why, but felt that they were special. Pitiful.He is so pitiful that he doesn't even have the right to choose, and he is so pitiful that he has to obey others' orders to do things.

"Beat me hard until she admits it. Murdering the little prince is a capital crime. Princess Yu, I advise you to recruit me, so as not to have to bear these flesh and blood pains." looking at the person in front of you.

Although her body was in pain, Ruan Xiyue still looked okay. The whip with salt water hit her body, and every time a whip was applied, she felt that her skin would be ripped apart, and the pain was self-evident.

After beating for an unknown amount of time, the jailer poured a basin of cold water on her face, Ruan Xiyue panted, and smiled faintly: "Is that all you can do?"

"What's more, if this brand is burning red, if it lands on your face, you will lose your title as the number one beauty in the country of Zhou?" Zhou Tong walked over slowly and raised his hand. The iron in his hand moved closer to her face.
