Chapter 351 Interrogation 1
Seeing the letter being sent away, Beibei still frowned, looked at Chu'er and asked: "Brother, will the letter fall into mother's hands unharmed?"
Chu'er thought about it and thought it was true, so he sent two more groups of people to deliver it to prevent accidents.
"Mom is so smart, she will definitely turn disaster into good luck." Chu'er reassured.
Beibei nodded and held Chu'er's hand: "Brother, I can't sleep."
"Then let's play chess." Chu'er put on her coat and asked the maid to bring some food over.
The chessboard was placed, and the two brothers began to play the game by candlelight.
One is black and the other is white, one is fierce and the other is gentle and humble.
It wasn't until the sky turned white that the two brothers fell asleep, lying on the couch and squinting lightly.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince?"
In his daze, he didn't know who shouted, and Beibei reluctantly opened his eyes: "What's the matter?"
"It's Aunt Zhi. She was not familiar with the place last night. She tripped on the threshold and broke her leg. She was only discovered this morning." The palace maid replied.
Beibei rubbed his eyes and said oh, looked around and didn't see Chu'er, so he asked: "Where's the eldest brother?"
"Your Majesty got up early in the morning and went to the back garden to feed the fish."
Beibei lifted up the quilt and went to the ground. He was not in a hurry to see Aunt Zhi. Instead, he asked someone to prepare breakfast, and then went to the garden to call Chu'er to have breakfast with him.
"Brother, this fish has gained a lot of weight."
Beibei sniffed, and he seemed to smell the smell of grilled fish: "When I was in Prince Xiao's Mansion, my mother often caught fish for me and grilled it. It was delicious."
Chu'er was stunned, thinking that his younger brother missed his mother, so he quickly said: "Which one do you like? Brother will catch it and roast it for you to eat. Now my mother and the emperor's uncle are fighting at the border. I'm afraid she won't be able to come back for a while."
Come."
They are fighting for world peace and are the great heroes of the South!
Beibei turned to look at Chu'er and smiled: "Brother, you misunderstood. I just remembered the past."
He took Chu'er back to have a meal. After eating and drinking, Beibei talked about Aunt Zhi.
"She is a person close to the imperial grandmother. She made such a fuss because she wants to return to Cihe Palace."
Beibei smiled: "I will definitely not let her go back. Staying with the imperial grandmother is a cancer. It's a pity that the person behind her has not been caught yet."
Aunt Su was tortured, but she refused to say a word. Beibei felt confused, and for a while he didn't dare to kill Aunt Zhi, fearing that there were accomplices.
So this is a bit difficult to handle.
Beibei was a little absent-minded. He drank half a bowl of milk tea and said, "I'll go see Aunt Zhi first."
The person was right under his nose, so he wanted to see what he could say.
Aunt Zhi sat on the chair with her feet covered, her face pale. When she saw Beibei coming, she struggled to get up: "Your Highness the Crown Prince..."
"Auntie, you don't have to be polite, how could you accidentally drop your leg?" Beibei looked at Aunt Zhi's left leg with blood sticking to her trouser leg. The bloodstain had dried up. Judging from the bloodstain, she must have been seriously injured.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is worried. This servant was careless and didn't pay attention to the threshold."
Aunt Zhi shook her head and sighed: "I'm used to living in Cihe Palace, but suddenly I moved to a new place. I thought I was walking on flat ground."
Beibei pretended not to understand: "Since my aunt has injured her leg, please take a good rest and I will send a little palace maid to serve you..."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince?" Aunt Zhi said with a look of helplessness: "There are so many people waiting for you in your Royal Highness's palace. Since you begged the Queen Mother for slaves, why did you leave them unused in the courtyard?"
She was really confused and couldn't figure out Beibei's intention.
"Did someone say something behind my back that made you misunderstand me?" Aunt Zhi probed cautiously, her eyes red: "I have been in the palace for most of my life, and have been with the Queen Mother for decades. I have always been loyal.
,Did Aunt Su say something?"
Beibei shook his head: "It's not her."
"Then who is spreading rumors?" Aunt Zhi cried aggrievedly: "Slave..."
"I haven't figured out how to reuse my aunt yet. I always feel that asking my aunt to do servant's work is overkill."
Beibei lowered his head and looked at Aunt Zhi's legs again, and murmured in a low voice: "Aunt Zhi doesn't need to break her legs just to return to the imperial grandmother, right?"
"No...no, Your Highness, I was really careless." Aunt Zhi defended with tears in her eyes.
Beibei was half convinced and half doubtful.
Aunt Zhi's name was included in the list for interrogation by the Criminal Division, but Beibei had no conclusive evidence!
What if a good person was really wronged?
So Beibei is still struggling and can only wait and see what happens.
Aunt Zhi ignored the pain in her legs and knelt on the ground. She gasped in pain and said anxiously: "The Queen Mother really cannot live without slaves. If you find that I have any evil intentions, you can execute me at any time. But please
Don't leave me alone."
Beibei gently pushed away Aunt Zhi's hand, showing no sympathy for her tears. He had seen too many such tears.
There are two faces in front and behind.
"Aunt Su must be jealous of this slave and deliberately make up lies, right?"
Aunt Zhi was furious: "Aunt Su was brought into the palace as a dowry to the Queen Mother, and she secretly had an affair with the late Emperor while the Queen Mother was pregnant, but was discovered by a slave. The late Emperor was sentenced to death. Aunt Su must be sad, so she holds a grudge, right?"
