"Then she agrees?" Beigong Tengxiao frowned slightly, his voice was low, and his eyes were somewhat intimidating.
Butler Zhao had cold sweat on his forehead and said, "She was so happy just now..."
Beigong Tengxiao turned his head and glanced at Chu Jiaoli, only to see her red eyes, pursed lips, shaking her head pitifully, her eyes full of injustice.
Butler Zhao looked up at her pitiful appearance, and everyone was frightened.
This is so good at acting!
Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Is this also called happiness?"
Butler Zhao immediately kowtowed: "Your Highness, spare your life! Your Highness, spare your life! The common people definitely did not lie!"
Chu Jiaoxing, who has always been brave when it comes to justice, immediately ran to Chu Jiaoli's side, pointed at Butler Zhao on the ground and said, "Tell me! Did Yang sell her?"
Chu Jiaoli glanced at Chu Jiaoxing. Although if she had not been divorced by Prince Qi yesterday because of escaping from marriage, she and her fourth sister would not have been sold. In the last life, she listened to the villain's slander, because of this matter, Chu Jiaoxing
Although she harbored hatred, Chu Jiaoxing did not do it intentionally after all.
After being sold into the Zhao Mansion, it was Chu Jiaoxing who helped her become a matchmaker with Beigong Tengxiao, which gave her the opportunity to fly to Gaozhi.
She failed to kill Chu Jiaoxing, but Chu Jiaoxing cared about the relationship between sisters and never thought of revenge. The people who really wanted to harm her were the people close to her.
Now that I think about it, I regret it quite a bit.
"Butler Zhao, you can't talk nonsense! It was Chu Jiaoli who promised to marry into your family!" Hearing that Chu Jiaoxing wanted to shift the responsibility to his mother, Chu Yuanzhe was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead and he immediately went to Butler Zhao.
call out.
Butler Zhao glanced at Chu Yuanzhe who was being held in custody, then raised his eyes and saw Beigong Tengxiao's gloomy face. How could he not know what was more important!
Being able to adapt to the situation, he immediately confessed: "Young Master Chu is wrong! It was Yang who sold this little girl to our family!"
And everyone's faces were full of resentment. This was clearly the Chu Mansion selling their daughters! Unexpectedly, the Chu Mansion was so tyrannical towards ordinary people, even their own daughters were not spared!
Chu Yuanzhe remained unyielding and shouted: "I sold her to you with good intentions, but you bite back like this!"
Beigong Tengxiao turned his head, raised his eyebrows slightly at Chu Jiaoli, and said, "Are you from the Chu Mansion in Dongshi?"
Chu Jiaoli was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Beigong Tengxiao was thoughtful, then looked at the angry Chu Yuanzhe, and said calmly: "Second Young Master Chu, although I don't know anything about things outside the palace, the Chu family's fabrics killed Zhang Cairen.
I have heard a little bit about this matter, but I wonder if it has something to do with the Second Young Master Chu?"
After Chu Jiaoxing was chosen by Bei Gong Qianqiu to get engaged, the Yang family and the two brothers and sisters regarded her as a thorn in their side. In order to kill Chu Jiaoxing, Chu Yuanzhe poisoned the fabric used to make her clothes. Unexpectedly, she was sent away by accident.
He entered the palace and poisoned Zhang Cairen in the harem.
As soon as this incident came out, the emperor was furious. The Chu government was in danger. Mr. Chu also sat in the sky prison for a month. Although Chu Yuanzhe later blamed it on the tailor and escaped death, Mr. Chu was imprisoned.
The people were restless and protested against the actions of the Chu government.
The emperor strictly inspected the Chu family's daily behavior and became disgusted with it, so he stopped the royal business.
After losing his status as an imperial merchant, the people also hated the Chu Mansion extremely. The Chu Mansion became depressed and desolate. It could be said that it was a rat crossing the street, and everyone wanted to beat it.
Hearing this, Chu Yuanzhe turned pale with fright. He couldn't help shaking his legs and said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is unjust! This matter has nothing to do with the common people. The Holy Lord has investigated the matter strictly. It was a tailor who did it and has ordered him to be punished."
Behead them, the common people...the common people are the victims!"
"Really?" Beigong Tengxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at him with a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, and spoke in a deep tone.
"Your Highness, the daughter of the people is also deeply suspicious of this matter!" Chu Jiaoxing raised her hand to pinch her chin and said maliciously beside him.
Chu Jiaoli's pupils gradually shrank. Although she didn't know what grudge he had against the concubine in the palace, she suddenly had an epiphany when she saw Chu Yuanzhe's guilty state.
It was Chu Yuanzhe who caused the Chu family to be in such a depression, not Chu Jiaoxing! He is the culprit of all this!
She raised her head, frowned and said, "Chu Yuanzhe lied."
Regarding this matter, Chu Yuanzhe didn't even dare to scold them back. He said with panic in his eyes: "The common people are wronged! They are wronged!"
Beigong Tengxiao looked at Chu Yuanzhe who was frightened, and then at the two people who were guarding Chu Yuanzhe. Their clothes belonged to Prince Qi's house, and asked him, "Where does Prince Qi plan to take him?"
Beigong Qianqiu smiled faintly and said: "He just injured someone and was about to send him to the Yamen."
"No need." Beigong Tengxiao looked at Chu Yuanzhe seriously and said, "Send it to Dali Temple to investigate the matter strictly."
"Very good." Beigong Qianqiu nodded and waved to the two people guarding him.
Chu Yuanzhe, who was being carried away, shouted: "Your Highness, please spare your life! Prince Qi, please spare your life!"
Soon, his voice was covered up by the curses of the crowd, who all threw eggs and vegetable leaves at him.
Returning to a moment of tranquility, Beigong Tengxiao stared at Butler Zhao who was still kneeling on the ground, and took out a banknote from his sleeve and gave it to him.
Butler Zhao glanced out of the corner of his eye and did not dare to raise his eyes. He hesitated for a moment, how to deal with the master now...
Beigong Tengxiao threw the banknotes on the ground and said coldly: "If you don't want to be with Young Master Chu, just take the money and get out."
Butler Zhao took a closer look and was surprised and happy to see that the banknote was actually one thousand taels!
"Yes! Yes! Get out of here, little one!" He quickly grabbed the banknotes on the ground and stuffed them into his arms, stood up and ran away with the Zhao family.
Chu Jiaoli watched the expensive silver note being put into Butler Zhao's arms and fled away. She didn't recover for a long time. She frowned slightly and explained: "Your Highness, actually..."
"One thousand taels! As expected of the prince! Such a generous offer!" Chu Jiaoxing's face was full of shock and admiration, and she accidentally interrupted her.
Hearing this, everyone was even more embarrassed.
Chu Jiaoli hesitated to speak. If she now revealed that Zhao Yuanwai only gave Chu Mansion one hundred taels, Beigong Tengxiao would definitely lose his face...
Beigong Qianqiu narrowed his phoenix eyes, looked at Chu Jiaoxing with a doggy face, and said: "Then you follow His Highness and don't enter my house."
After saying that, he turned around and walked into the mansion.
"Hey! I'm just kidding!" Chu Jiaoxing's face was full of annoyance. If she hadn't entered the house to find the heirloom, she wouldn't have relied on Beigong Qianqiu so shamelessly!
Just as she was about to get up and follow him, she turned to look at Chu Jiaoli and said, "Third sister, if you want to follow me, I will definitely be able to take good care of you!"
After saying that, Chu Jiaoxing took her hand and walked to the Prince's Mansion, saying: "We will go to the Prince's Mansion together, and we will be free soon!"
Chu Jiaoli raised her eyes to look at the Prince's Mansion in front of her, then quietly looked back at Beigong Tengxiao.
There is a wolf's den in front and a tiger's den in the back. There is no freedom. What's more, Chu Jiaoxing can't even protect herself...
