Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

Leng Yan shouted, "Bitch, you still don't tell the truth in front of the prince, but you still want to be punished?"

"No..." Zhaoxia changed her words, "It was because I was blinded by money and forgot my principles that I could not resist the temptation..."

She was a household slave in Prince Qi's mansion. Her father was a gambler, her brother was an alcoholic, her grandmother was seriously ill, and her mother was tortured to death by jumping into a well.

Her younger brothers and sisters were young and unable to earn money, so the responsibility of supporting the family fell on her shoulders. She wanted to be a maid.

Yihe knew all these about her situation, so she first tempted her with money, and then used the name of Princess Qi to promise her the position of head maid as a benefit.

So she secretly became Yihe's person, always looking for an opportunity to drug Qi Wang's concubine, and finally completed the task when delivering strawberries.

Leng Yan had interrogated her a few days ago, but she had been stubborn and refused to admit it until today when she could no longer hold it in and finally confessed the truth.

After hearing Zhaoxia's confession, Chu Xuanhan was furious. "Do you have any evidence to prove that it was that slut who lured me with benefits?"

As the saying goes, words are not enough. If they only rely on Zhaoxia as a witness and there is no physical evidence, Yihe can directly deny it.

If Lian Yihe didn't admit it, he wouldn't be able to push the matter onto Yuchi Jiuyue, and he still had to deal with the General's Mansion.

Zhaoxia replied weakly, "No, Miss Yihe only gave me some silver, and I have already spent it all..."

Even if she kept it, it would be useless. It was impossible to write a name on the silver, so there was no way to prove that it was given to her by Yihe.

"Are there any abortion pills left?" Chu Xuanhan asked again. If there were any remaining pills, they could be used as evidence to trace their source.

In fact, Leng Yan had already asked all the questions and only needed to report them. This was one of the reasons why he had not brought Chaoxia in before.

It was Leng Feng who reminded him that Chu Xuanhan might interrogate him personally, so he brought the person here. He was indeed preparing for a rainy day.

"No, no..." Zhaoxia replied in a low voice, "Miss Yihe only gave me a little bit, and asked me to use it all."

Chu Xuanhan's face was as cold as ice, and his expression was terribly gloomy. "Then do you dare to identify the slave in front of Yuchi Jiuyue?"

"When faced with life and death, I have no choice." Chaoxia's tone was extremely helpless, but what she said was true.

Chu Xuanhan frowned and was silent for a while, then gave an order, "Prepare the car, go to the General's Mansion!"

A carriage with the logo of Prince Qi's Mansion drove away from the gate of the palace and finally stopped in front of the gate of the General's Mansion.

Yuchi Changgong and his son both went to the government office to report for duty. Now there are only the old general and his female relatives in the general's mansion.

When they learned that Prince Qi was coming, they thought he was here to pick up Yuchi Jiuyue, so they deliberately let her hide behind the screen in the main hall.

As a result, she didn't wait for Chu Xuanhan to apologize, but instead heard him tell Zhaoxia's confession. How could she remain calm?

She immediately walked out from behind the screen. "What did you say? Did Yihe bribe you to drug the concubine?"

Yihe knelt on the ground, feeling as if the sky was falling, "No, it's not me. I don't know her at all. I've only met her a few times."

Zhaoxia was covered in wounds and could not even kneel down. She could only lie on the ground, "Miss Yihe, that's not what you said when you gave me the silver."

Yihe screamed, "You are slandering me. Madam has repeatedly warned the princess not to touch the concubine's unborn baby. How could I ask you to drug me?"

Zhaoxia had a reason, "You have been competing for favor with Miss Yicui, but you haven't accomplished anything big recently. That's why I want to remove the worry for the princess."

"You're talking nonsense. Before the princess married, she had already agreed with the prince that the concubine's child would be raised by the princess. How could it be a big worry?"

Yihe did want to win favor, and she also knew that Yuchi Jiuyue could not tolerate Mo Yaohua's child, but she was not bold enough to make such a plan.

"But didn't you say that even if she is registered under your name, she is not your biological child after all. If she gains power in the future, she will be closer to her biological mother. The loss is not worth it, Princess."

Although Chaoxia was weak and spoke feebly, she spoke her words clearly enough to ensure that everyone present could hear them.

Yihe denied, "I didn't say that. Your Majesty, please believe me. I really didn't say that. She is using me to slander the princess."

Yuchi Jiuyue said: "I have never instructed anyone to take action against the concubine's child. If Yihe wanted to win favor, she would not go against me."

Yihe echoed, "Yes, yes, yes, I do want to win your favor, but I only know how to please you. How could I disobey the princess? Your Majesty, please understand."

General Yuchi asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, Your Highness Prince Qi, besides this bawdy maid who is talking nonsense, is there any other evidence to prove this matter?"

Chu Xuanhan said: "No, she is the witness. She also said that this kind of thing does not require physical evidence. However, I had some doubts, so I asked her to confront me."

He had already thought about it before he came. If Chaoxia's confession could convince the people in the General's Mansion, he would take the opportunity to warn them.

If they think that words are not enough and more evidence is needed, he will use the excuse that he is here to confront them and that he does not believe them.

After all, Chaoxia only has one word to say, and as long as Yihe refuses to admit it, he will have no choice unless he tortures Yihe.

But Yihe's indenture contract is in the general's mansion, and he is here now too. How could Yuchi Kun possibly torture him?

Old General Yuchi sneered, "So Prince Qi is here to confront me. I thought the evidence was irrefutable, but he is here to question the princess."

Chu Xuanhan replied perfunctorily, "Old General, you are too kind. Although I am not talented, I will not be fooled by a few words from a lowly maid."

"In that case, may I ask if Prince Qi has anything else?" General Yuchi's voice was cold and his expression was extremely displeased.

"Is there something you need to do, old general?" Chu Xuanhan wanted Chaoxia to say more so that he could see Yihe's reaction.

General Yuchi wanted to chase him away, "No, it's just that I'm really old, and my health is getting worse day by day. I can't deal with King Qi anymore."

Chu Xuanhan wanted to take the opportunity to take Yuchi Jiuyue away. "The last incident was all my fault. I lost my child and lost my composure."

As he said this, he looked at Yuchi Jiyue and said, "Yue'er, I'm sorry for you. Please forgive me this time for the pain of losing my son."

Yuchi Jiyue just opened his mouth, but General Yuchi beat him to the punch, "Your Highness, do you want to take the princess back?"

"I know I am wrong, but I am too embarrassed to come here. It just so happens that this slut slandered Yue'er, so I used this as an excuse to come and visit you."

Chu Xuanhan didn't want to make his trip in vain, so he was not idle on the way here. He was thinking carefully and even found an excuse.

Yuchi Jiuyue liked him, and with just a few simple words from him, she was already shaken and wanted to go back with him immediately.

General Yuchi saw through her thoughts at a glance and refused to give her a chance to speak, fearing that all his efforts would be wasted.

"Prince Qi is so sincere, but unfortunately I have not been feeling well lately and I am afraid I will not live long. I would like to ask the princess to stay for a few more days."
