"Now we have all the evidence, Miss Lu."

Lord Chen smiled at Lu Zhaoyun and said, "I don't mean to embarrass you, but look at the prison cell. Which prisoner can afford to live in a private room like this?"

Private room!

Lu Zhaoyun was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

No matter how well it was decorated here, it was just a cell, and she was locked up with iron bars and doors.

Also, if word gets out that she's in jail, who would care what kind of private room she lives in here?

"Lord Chen, do you want to make others laugh their heads off? Who wants to stay in a private room like this?" Lu Zhaoyun shouted.

Haha, it’s obviously you and your Lu family who are making others laugh. OK?

Lord Chen smiled wryly but did not reply.

"No, who do you say is the criminal?"

Lu Zhaoyun realized something was wrong again. How could she be called a criminal?

At this point, Lord Chen finally spoke.

"Ms. Lu, you have to face reality. Didn't I tell you? There are witnesses and evidence. If you continue to talk nonsense to me, I can't do anything. I can only think of other ways to make you confess."

"If you sign your name quickly, I can give you a chance to seek help from outside. You can ask the Second Prince or someone else for help."

"What do you mean?" Lu Zhaoyun's face changed. "If I don't plead guilty, you won't allow anyone to see me? You're not going to let me go?"

"You still want to go out casually?"

Lord Chen was even more impressed by Lu Zhaoyun's intelligence. He said so much, and those witnesses said so much, but she didn't listen, right?

Do you think that everything will be fine once she receives the imperial decree granting her marriage?

"Miss Lu, there is something I don't understand and I want to ask you."

Lord Chen couldn't help but ask, "When the Second Miss received the imperial decree granting her marriage, your family members were all clamoring and trying to get her to cancel the engagement. Why did you realize the sacredness of the imperial decree when you received it?"

Lu Zhaoyun opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

"Besides, the second young lady was granted marriage to the Prince of Jin, the principal wife, and you are a concubine... Tsk."

Lord Chen shook his head and sighed as he spoke, "I just admire your family very much."

"Let me out quickly!"

Lu Zhaoyun became angry and embarrassed.

"You can't get out. Also, if you don't sign, the Second Prince will definitely not be able to come in to see you. If you don't believe me, just wait. As long as you sign, we can send you a message and you can call whoever you want."

Lord Chen said this and waved his hand, and everyone retreated.

Soon, the news spread that a prisoner in the prison was sick and had a rash on his face.

Some people also saw Lord Chen hurriedly went to the pharmacy to buy a lot of medicine. The medicine powder was sprinkled around the prison. A large pot was set up outside to cook some preventive medicinal tea. Everyone lined up with a bowl and each drank a large bowl.

At the same time, Lord Chen also warned everyone that relatives were not allowed to visit the prisoner until they found out what disease he was infected with.

"Sir, isn't this move of the prince a bit damaging?" A yamen runner brought a cup of tea to Lord Chen and asked him in a low voice, "What if the Second Prince says that we used tricks to force a confession from Miss Lu..."

Lord Chen took the medicinal tea calmly.

"What's wrong? Don't we have any evidence?"

"Did we torture people into confessions? Did we force people to make false confessions?"

"Isn't there someone in our prison who got poisoned by poisonous ants and got blisters all over his face? We are being careful and responsible. What's wrong with being cautious?"

"Also, that girl is no longer Miss Lu. How shameless! Our Second Miss is the eldest daughter."

Haha, fight with King Jin.

After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he took a sip of the medicinal tea and smacked his lips.

"It's true, the recipe given by Master Fu is different. This detoxifying tea is slightly bitter, but sweet after a while. It's safe to drink."

This is not some kind of medicinal tea for preventing epidemics. This is the anti-dampness tea that King Jin asked the assistant doctor to prescribe for them. It is very good for the body.

Lord Chen drank a bowl of tea happily.

The second prince cleaned up the place after returning home.

After the maid had scrubbed her inside and out several times, dried her hair, and changed into new clothes that had been scented, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

But in fact, the feeling of having blood sprayed all over his face was still in his mind, making him very irritated.

"Your Highness, Miss Lu is still in the government office." The servant said this to him carefully.

The second prince frowned.

"Chen Deshan will let her go after questioning her. Go tell Chen Deshan to weigh the head on his neck."

The second prince felt that after hearing this, Chen Deshan would definitely not dare to detain Chen Zhaoyun.

As a result, when it got dark, the servants brought back a prisoner in the jail who was suspected to have contracted a serious disease.

Lord Chen said that Lu Zhaoyun could not be released easily.

After a few words, Lord Chen covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and stepped back several steps. "I am also going to the prison today. Just in case, I still can't get close to you. Please help me apologize to the Second Prince."

As soon as these words came back, the second prince's face changed, "You get out!"

The servant went to see Chen Deshan.

What if?

The servants quickly retreated.

"Your Highness, Lord Chen said that he would treat Miss Lu well and would never let her suffer any hardship." He said another sentence outside after he stepped out.

The second prince was thinking about the mess that happened in the Lu family today. He hadn't found out everything yet. If Lu Zhaoyun had already come into contact with the patient, it would be better for him not to come out for the time being.

Otherwise, she would definitely come to find him as soon as she came out.

"Then we'll talk about it tomorrow! Go check whether that evil disease really exists or not."

Lu Zhaoyun was still waiting in prison for the Second Prince to come and rescue her, but she waited all night, from dark to dawn. The jailer came to serve breakfast, but the Second Prince still didn't come.

No one from the Lu family came either.

Lin Rong took the silver and went to Yin's house.

He looked at the plaque hanging on the door of the house, with the words "Yin's House" inscribed on it, and always felt a little strange.

As soon as the door opened, Mo Qi saw him looking at the door plaque and understood.

"Master Lin feels that it sounds like the word yinzhai? The yin in the underworld?"

When Lin Rong heard this, he suddenly realized that it was indeed the case. He was wondering why it was so strange.

"I am obsessed with appearances."

"It's okay. My grandfather said that even if the word 'Yin Zhai' is really written on it, he won't mind it."

Moqi welcomed the person in.

Sun Jiu came here with Lord Lin.

Yin Yunting was in the study, fiddling with a few small bottles.

Seeing Lord Lin coming, he put down the small bottle and his eyes fell on the box held by Sun Jiu.

"Have you collected fingerprints?"

"Miss Lu said that we can ask Master Yin for this kind of thing, but I don't know how to collect fingerprints on the silver."

"use this."

Yin Yunting pointed at the small bottles and said, "Use this, the potion I specially prepared, which can make the fingerprints clearly visible. Then cover it with thin paper and carefully brush it with another potion, and the fingerprints will be printed on the paper."
