Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country
Chapter 154 Are you sure?
The Yulin Guards acted extremely efficiently.
Emperor Ming, Empress, and Lady Pingyang had just sat down on the chairs brought by the eunuchs when the Imperial Guards surrounded their chambers.
"Who is the first to sue?"
Nan Rongjing asked with a gloomy face. He didn't expect that the second prince was so cruel that he dared to kill someone in the palace, and the person he killed was a princess!
Hu Ruzhen walked out from behind Nan Heying and looked at Nan Rongjing with a resentful look.
"It's my lady."
"Tell me about this in detail."
"Yes, I drank a few more glasses of wine at the palace banquet today, and I felt uncomfortable in my stomach. When I came to the door of the honor room, I heard a struggle coming from inside. I was scared, so I hid behind the honor room."
As if recalling the panic scene, Hu Ruzhen's eyes were red and her lips were trembling.
"I just saw Princess Shuyi strangling Princess Ning'an's neck with a rope. Princess Ning'an struggled for a few times and then stopped moving. I was so scared that I just wanted to leave quickly. Fortunately, I met His Royal Highness the Second Prince..."
Pingyang ***'s face was pale, and his eyes swept over Lin Yushu, with disbelief, disbelief and deep sorrow in his eyes.
Lin Yushu calmly shook her head at Pingyang ***.
Princess Pingyang was stunned for a moment, then she calmed down a lot. Compared with the Second Prince and Hu Ruzhen, she trusted Lin Yushu more.
"County Lady Shuyi, do you have anything to say?"
Nan Rongjing's questioning became softer unconsciously, and Hu Ruzhen was so angry that she bit her handkerchief tightly.
"Princess Ning'an left the table because she suddenly felt unwell. I was worried about her, so I followed her to check on her. As soon as I got to the guest room, I was stopped by the Second Prince."
Such a short sentence surprised everyone. What Lin Yushu and Hu Ruzhen said were so different from each other. One of them must be lying.
"Mother, what happened?"
"You! Why are you here!?"
Hu Ruzhen looked at Nan Shuning who was walking slowly towards her, her eyes widened, she was terrified and her face turned pale.
"Shuning!"
Mrs. Pingyang stood up and walked forward, hugging Nan Shuning and refusing to let go, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, without a trace of her usual dignity.
After others explained to Nan Shuning, Nan Shuning's eyes turned cold.
"I'm fine here, how come someone saw me dead?!"
Finished!
Hu Ruzhen thought, is she going to repeat the mistakes of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet? !
At this time, the Yulin Guards who had entered Gongfang to search came forward to reply.
"Your Highness, a dead person was found in the palace, but it was not Princess Ning'an."
"The deceased was a royal guard."
The Second Prince glanced at Hu Ruzhen with a cold gaze, causing a layer of cold sweat to instantly appear on Hu Ruzhen's back.
Idiot, you can't even do this!
The second prince is not stupid. Whether it is killing Nan Shuning or accusing Lin Yushu, he is just a bystander. These things are all done by Hu Ruzhen.
He would never intervene easily and leave any handle for himself.
"Then, I was wrong."
Hu Ruzhen's mind raced. Although it was a pity that Nan Shuning didn't die, someone had died anyway, and Lin Yushu would definitely not be able to escape.
"The Princess Shuyi killed a guard, but I didn't see it clearly."
"You mistook the imperial guard for Princess Ning'an. You can't even tell the difference between a man and a woman, but you're sure that the murderer was Princess Shuyi?"
Nan Rongjing said in a mocking tone.
Hu Ruzhen knew that there was something wrong with what happened today. She was the one who sent this imperial guard to kill Nan Shuning, but she didn't know how he was killed instead. But now she was in a dilemma and had to kill Lin Yushu.
"That's right. I was frightened by County Lady Shuyi's actions, so I didn't see clearly who she strangled to death."
"Your Highness, the deceased suffered a head injury and there was a blood-stained stone beside him. It is initially determined that he was killed by a blow to the back of the head."
Hu Ruzhen: …
Emperor Ming cast a suspicious look at Hu Ruzhen, causing her to tremble uncontrollably.
Concubine Hu, who had been standing in the back, had just regained the emperor's favor recently and didn't want to get involved. But Hu Ruzhen was really a stubborn person, and she couldn't just watch her brother's only bloodline be convicted again.
"Your Majesty, you know that Ruzhen has had poor eyesight since she was a child. She can't tell the difference between humans and animals more than ten feet away. It's normal for her to make mistakes."
Nan Rongjing couldn't help but sneer, "Heh, but she sees County Lady Shuyi very clearly."
Concubine Hu choked, looked at Hu Ruzhen who was kneeling on the ground with a grim expression, and sighed helplessly.
"Hu Ruzhen and Princess Shuyi each have their own version of the story. It would be better to send them both to the Yulin Guard for strict interrogation."
As soon as Nan Heying said this, Hu Ruzhen collapsed to the ground.
It was obvious that Nan Heying said this in order to bring down Lin Yushu, and even abandoned Hu Ruzhen.
Lin Yushu's face was calm, but she secretly cursed the Second Prince for being such a bad boy.
First, she wanted to kill Nan Shuning and put the blame on her. Then, in order to make it impossible for her to wash off the dirty water on her body, she sent Hu Ruzhen and her to the Yulin Guard Station to be punished.
It seems that the most dangerous thing in the world is to be Nan Heying's cousin...
The queen looked at Lin Yushu with a complicated expression, and kept hesitating in her heart whether to help her.
In the Queen's view, since Liu Mei married into the Eastern Palace, the General's Mansion has become related to the Crown Prince, so Lin Mingyue should stand on the Crown Prince's side.
However, it is said that Lin Mingyue has a stubborn temper, just like Lin Yushu's grandfather, and he hates factional struggles.
However, who says that people from Lin Mingyue's family must take the initiative to stand on the side of the prince in order for people to recognize them as the prince's party?
Isn't it the same if the prince and the queen take the initiative to stand beside them!
"Your Majesty, I think the Second Prince's method is too radical. It's just that a guard died, but he wants to send the county lady who was personally appointed by Your Majesty to the Yulin Guard Station. This is inappropriate."
Emperor Ming glanced at the empress's earnest expression indifferently and did not comment.
Everyone in the palace was a shrewd person, but Emperor Ming was obviously the smartest of the smart. He could tell the purpose of someone's words at a glance.
The queen looked embarrassed and said nothing more.
Seeing the queen being humiliated, the second prince was secretly delighted. He thought that Lin Yushu would definitely not be able to escape this time. It was her fault for being so ungrateful that she dared to reject him!
No matter who they are, they will be skinned alive once they fall into the hands of the living devil Nan Rongjing!
Everyone was watching the show, and seeing that Emperor Ming remained silent, they all guessed in their hearts that these two beautiful young ladies were destined to be tortured in the Yulin Guard.
The Yulin Guards stood aside, ready to go. As long as Nan Rongjing gave the order, they would immediately take the two young ladies to the Yulin Guard Station.
However, at this moment, Nan Rongjing turned to face Emperor Ming and bowed.
"Your Majesty, I have witnesses who can prove that Princess Shuyi never entered the concubine's room to commit murder."
"Who?"
"Myself!"
Hearing Nan Rongjing's answer, Emperor Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, "Go on."
"When Princess Shuyi left Zichen Palace, I happened to have just come out of the palace to sober up. I walked with Princess Shuyi outside the palace until she met His Royal Highness the Second Prince."
Lin Yushu was not surprised at all when she heard this. Now that she had Nan Rongjing as an ally, even if she really killed the guard, he would have a way to get her out of trouble.
"Oh? Then why didn't the prince see you?"
Nan Heying asked in a bad tone. He didn't expect Nan Rongjing to personally testify for Lin Yushu. Is he also planning to target her?
"That's because I left when the Second Prince showed up, because..."
Nan Rongjing deliberately hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind to continue.
"Because His Royal Highness the Second Prince has been pestering me to inquire about the background of the Minister of War, I really don't want to get entangled with His Royal Highness, so I left first."
With just one sentence, Nan Heying's face changed suddenly.
