Beijing, Dali Temple Prison.

Lu Zan was wearing a black robe embroidered with gold thread, with his hands behind his back. His noble and slender figure walked slowly and slowly from one cell to another, finally stopping at the innermost cell that had been transformed into an interrogation room.

The cell door opens.

Lu Zan stepped in, walked straight to the main seat and sat down. The Dali Temple minister carefully looked at his face, and then whispered something to the jailer who was waiting respectfully beside him.

Not long after, a prisoner was escorted over.

Jing Wenfeng, the revered Tai Fu in the court in the past, was brought in with disheveled hair and a shabby appearance, and was directly pressed to the place where he was to be tortured by the jailer.

According to the account of Jing Mei, Jing Wei, after the late emperor granted her a marriage, she did not want to marry into the East Palace and eloped with her sworn brother Wei Ziling to escape the marriage. So Jing Taifu and his wife, Mrs. Li, found an orphan adopted by the palace to take her place. This was a crime. The crime of deceiving the emperor.

Now, Taifu's Mansion has been raided.

Taifu Jing, Mrs. Li, and the three members of Jing Wei's family were all ordered by Lu Zan to be imprisoned in the Dali Temple prison and interrogated by him personally.

It was a matter of royal secrets, and the ministers of Dali Temple did not dare to eavesdrop. As soon as Taifu Jing arrived, he retreated with a group of jailers and other accompanying officials, and walked far away to avoid hearing anything they should not hear.

Lu Zan started to ask questions with a serious face.

Jing Taifu explained everything one by one.

Not long after, he was taken down, and then his wife, Mrs. Li, was brought in.

Compared to Taifu Jing who just answered questions honestly, Mrs. Li received some punishment for speaking harshly. When she was dragged out, her whole body was dripping with blood and she was unconscious.

Finally, Jing Wei was brought in.

As soon as she saw Lu Zan, she kept crying miserably: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong! Please spare my life! Your Majesty, please!"

Lu Zan sat there, supporting his forehead with one hand, his posture was leisurely and lazy, but his handsome face was indifferent. When he heard her cry, his sword eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and a sharp look flashed in his extremely beautiful peach blossom eyes. Leng Jue.

"Shut up." He said impatiently.

Jing Wei choked, quickly stopped crying and bit her lip tightly, crying until she had runny nose and tears as she looked at the young and handsome emperor in front of her.

These days, she was locked up in this dark prison, beaten and scolded every day, and forced to tell everything she had hidden.

She didn't dare to say it, she didn't want to say it, but in order to avoid suffering, she had to say it.

Under her initiative, Mrs. Li and Taifu Jing, who had always loved her and treated her as their own, were also imprisoned, and the Taifu's house was ransacked... But so what? If she didn't say anything, I'm afraid she would have been killed right now.

"I always feel that you still have something to explain." At this time, Lu Zan suddenly said in a deep and clear voice.

He raised his eyes slightly, and there was a gloomy look on his sharp-featured face, "Jing Shu is the substitute arranged for you by Taifu Jing and Mrs. Li. Three years ago, she moved around the capital as the daughter of Taifu's house.

"Taifu Jing used her to win over the heirs of noble families in the capital and princes. She likes your sworn brother Wei Ziling, but in order to repay the kindness that the Jing family has shown her, she has to take your place in the palace... In addition to that, there are other things. ?”

Lu Zan's voice fell.

Jing Wei subconsciously didn't want to say any more.

She bit her lip tightly and didn't make a sound for a while.

"It seems that I am too kind to you." Lu Zan said coldly, and then winked at the secret guard beside him.

The secret guard understood immediately.

The next moment, Jing Wei's piercing cry of crying for her father and mother could be heard in the cell.

"Your Majesty, concubine said! Concubine said anything!" Jing Wei was pressed directly on her chest by a hot iron. The pain made her burst into tears, but she had to beg for mercy immediately and said quickly, "Concubine, concubine When the concubine entered the palace, she asked her step-brother to feed her poisonous cakes in an attempt to poison her, because the concubine knew that Jingshu liked her step-brother, and she would not doubt the things he gave her. It was a pity that she She’s not dead yet… I just don’t want anyone to take advantage of my status as a concubine and gain favor in the palace…”

The cell became eerily quiet for a moment.

Jing Wei's body was in terrible pain, but she didn't even dare to moan or moan in a low voice. She bit her lip to prevent herself from making any sound.

Lu Zan had an expression on his face, and after a long time he said in a sinister tone: "Apart from that, what else are you hiding? Tell me!"

Jing Wei suddenly looked up at him.

When she saw the deep ink in his eyes, her heart trembled suddenly, and she realized that if she didn't tell the real truth, she really wouldn't be able to survive today...

Tears were streaming down her face. Even though she had suffered a lot of torture these days, her face was still a bit sad.

"Concubine, concubine..." Jing Wei bit the tip of her tongue, narrowed her eyes, took a deep breath, and finally said, "Concubine is the one who took over Jing Shu's identity!"

When she was about to tell the past story about being instigated by someone when she was young and pushing Jingshu out of the carriage who kindly took her away from the border, and letting Jingshu be drowned by hungry refugees, Lu Zan couldn't help but move her eyes.

He looked at Jing Wei, suddenly stood up slowly and walked to her.

Jing Wei was a little overwhelmed by his approach.

She had selfish motives. At this time, she still concealed Jingshu's special identity and life experience that was probably related to the Saibei Governor's Mansion. She originally thought that if Lu Zan pressed him again, she would reveal this level of life experience, but she didn't expect it. , he suddenly stopped asking at this time.

At this time, Jing Wei raised her head and looked at his handsome face, and suddenly some extravagant thoughts came to her mind.

"Your Majesty..." Jing Wei knelt on the ground, her body like a snake, crawling on the ground and moving towards him cautiously, her posture was extremely seductive, and her scarred hands gently grabbed a piece of Lu Zan's robe.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she tried to attract Lu Zan's attention with her most pitiful and Jingshu-like side, "Your Majesty, she is dead and can't come back, but the concubine is still there... …

"Your Majesty, this concubine looks so much like her. As long as the Emperor is willing, I am willing to be her substitute and serve the Emperor for the rest of her life..."

She said in a gentle and soft voice, like a hook.

Lu Zan knelt down and lifted her chin with one hand.

Jing Wei's eyes were filled with joy, thinking that her seduction was successful.

But the next moment.

A painful groan escaped her mouth. When she looked down, she saw a dagger hitting her heart, and the other end of the dagger was held in Lu Zan's palm.

Lu Zan pushed the dagger a little further, then turned his wrist, and the sharp end of the dagger turned in her heart.

Jing Wei suddenly felt an unspeakable suffocation and cramping pain...

She looked at Lu Zan in disbelief, but saw the young emperor pull out the dagger without hesitation and stand up with an indifferent expression.

His tall and noble figure stood there, picked up a handkerchief, casually wiped the blood on the dagger, then threw the dirty handkerchief to her body, then raised his foot and crushed her face directly. Her face was trampled hard, and her face, which she had always been proud of, was crushed to pieces in an instant.

When the shadow of death completely enveloped her, Jing Wei heard Lu Zan's cold thin lips utter the last few words coldly:

"Be her substitute? Are you worthy?"
