Ji Wanying was so frightened that sweat broke out on her forehead. She straightened her body tremblingly, but stubbornly shouted: "I don't know, my cousin doesn't want to look at me anymore, so why don't you kill me now."
"You think I don't dare."
Lin Jinxiao's hand holding the sword couldn't help but tighten.
"Your Highness."
Yin Sinian was also frightened when he saw it:
With this strike of his sword, he was really going to make his relatives and enemies angry.
When the time comes, how will Yan Jun explain himself in front of the eldest princess?
How should I explain this to the Empress Dowager?
Yin Sinian stood up in a hurry to stop him and said, "There must be something hidden in this matter. Please calm down, Your Highness."
After saying that, he hurriedly faced Ji Wanying, frowned and urged: "Princess, the matter has come to this, you'd better hand over the evildoer as soon as possible."
"Just now, my uncle thought that I was falsely accusing my cousin-in-law, but now she wants to interrogate the attendants who tortured me for no reason. My uncle did not stop her but instead helped her. How is this?"
Ji Wanying choked up in a sad voice: "Is it because I lost my father when I was young that I can still be bullied?"
Yin Sinian was not stupid. Seeing that she was denying it, he snatched the small piece of meat skin from Chu Nanzhi's hand and threw it in front of her:
"Don't show off such little tricks in front of your cousin-in-law. Just now she asked the old man where the maid who was proficient in the art of disguise in Weilan Palace was. The old man felt strange. How could a living person do this for no reason?
Disappeared in the palace, it turns out that she has been hiding with us all along."
The little princess was so stubborn that she refused to hand over the groom. Most likely, the groom was the maid pretending to be the groom.
Chu Nanzhi finally smiled happily: "Your Majesty Taiwei, you really can tell the truth."
"Princess Wanying, do you want to hand over the murderer yourself or let me personally send people to search?"
Lin Jinxiao's sinister eyes were fixed on Ji Wanying, and he had no intention of taking back the sword in his hand.
Now that he knows that someone is using the art of disguise to deceive the world, he can find the disguised groom even if he digs three feet into the ground.
Ji Wanying saw Chu Nanzhi's methods, and although she felt unwilling to do so, she could see that her cousin had no intention of giving in. Her whole body suddenly softened, and then she collapsed on the ground, and said with a sluggish tone like a deflated rubber ball:
"She should be hiding somewhere in the courtyard of the restaurant."
"Search."
Lin Jinxiao finally put down his sword and waved towards He Ying.
A large number of soldiers immediately dispersed towards the courtyard.
Not long after, I saw a group of soldiers escorting an unkempt woman in.
The woman was arrested and came in before she could change her makeup, and she was feeling very puzzled.
Chu Nanzhi stepped forward and took a closer look. Although he was wearing the tattered clothes of a servant, he looked very delicate, and his skin color suggested that he was from the same country as Sang Qi.
Recalling Lin Jinhong's broken fingers, Chu Nanzhi subconsciously opened her hands hidden in her sleeves, and saw a fresh scratch on the wrist of her left hand, which was bright red and the blood had only just solidified.
"Your master betrayed you, but you still want to protect your master?"
Chu Nanzhi raised her eyebrows and looked at her calmly.
The woman glanced at Ji Wanying who was kneeling on the ground with an indifferent expression. She just smiled coldly and did not answer.
Yin Sinian wanted to protect the princess, so he rushed up to the woman and slapped her hard, deliberately scolding her: "Tell me, you have no grudge against the princess, why did you frame her and murder Prince Pingning's brother?"
"Your Majesty, what you are asking is really hard to understand."
Lin Jinxiao casually put the sword in his hand into the scabbard and said coldly: "How can a slave dare to make his own decisions and commit shocking crimes if he is not ordered by others?"
Yin Sinian nodded anxiously: "Yes, what His Highness said is absolutely true."
Then he glared at the maid angrily and deliberately pointed the finger elsewhere: "Are you under the instructions of King Beibin and want to frame the princess?"
"This slave does not know His Highness King Beibin."
The maid finally spoke.
This little princess is so unjust, why should I suffer for her?
"You still want to make excuses"
Yin Sinian pretended to be about to rebuke again, but Ji Wanying had already seen the dissatisfaction and boredom on Lin Jinxiao's face, and interrupted him: "Uncle, why do you need to be so pretentious? It's only now that you want to protect me, I'm afraid it's
It’s too late.”
Shaking her head angrily, she looked at Lin Jinxiao with a lonely look on her face and said disheartenedly:
"I have known Brother Jinxiao since I was a child. When we were in Jingling City, Brother Jinxiao was always very concerned about my little sister. I miss you so much when I followed you and Sister Shu all day long. Brother Cen An was there
During the days we were together, but ever since brother Jinxiao got married and my little sister came to Luyan Port, you only have eyes for your cousin, and you don't even want to look at my little sister again."
After a pause, she continued with choked sobs: "Why is my little sister so inferior to my cousin that she is so unpopular with brother Jinxiao?"
After venting his complaints, a thunderous scolding sounded from behind him: "Just because of this, you want to kill your cousin-in-law and your brother Jinxiao's brother?"
Everyone turned around and saw Chang Yanjue and Nie Huaian leading his wife.
The huge stone hanging in Yin Sinian's heart finally fell, and he stepped forward overjoyed: "Mr. Chang, Mr. Nie, two elder sisters."
Ji Huazhen bowed towards him, frowned and rushed to Ji Wanying, scolding loudly: "When did you become so cruel and ruthless? Do you know that all these things you did are a serious crime of confiscating homes and exterminating families?
"
"Who dares."
Ji Wanying was frightened and alert to her surroundings. After a long time, she suddenly threw herself into Ji Huazhen's arms and cried loudly: "Aunt, why can't I fight for what I want? We are both princesses. Sister Yuan Xi only wants what she wants.
Grandma and Your Majesty can answer her, so why do you have to stop me from doing what I want?"
Ji Huazhen suddenly remembered that she had mentioned a while ago that she wanted to marry into Prince Pingning's palace, and she shook her head angrily: "Princess Yuanxi has fallen into disgrace. You are the apple of your eyes and the eyes of your imperial grandmother and Princess Yanjun. You
If you want to be your cousin's concubine, how can they lose face?"
"Nonsense."
Chang Yanjue was so angry that she wanted to hit her with the crutch in her hand: "This is absolutely ridiculous."
Cui glanced at Ji Huazhen and Chang Lao with sudden realization, and said with regret: "That's why the princess tried so hard to kill your cousin-in-law and take the position of Princess Pingning?"
Nie Huaian took a breath and saw that the sword in Lin Jinxiao's hand was about to be unsheathed again. He was so anxious that he knelt down and begged in fear: "Your Highness, please calm down. Princess Wanying is young and ignorant. Please take care of her."
For the sake of the Empress Dowager, please forgive her this time."
Yin Sinian was so frightened that his forehead wrinkled, and he knelt down and shouted: "Your Highness, you must not do this. You killed the princess. Your Majesty, how are you going to explain it in front of the Empress Dowager?"
Unexpectedly, Ji Wanying didn't appreciate it at all, and cried angrily: "I don't want you to plead. Brother Jinxiao wants to kill me for a country woman, so you let him kill me. Anyway, I am also an orphan with no one to love me."
female."
Upon hearing this, Lin Jinxiao raised the sword in his hand again.
There is no one in this world that he dare not kill.
