As soon as the guard's words came out, the people watching in front of the government office all started talking: "Why did Miss Shi want to kill Princess Jin?"
"I know this, I know. I heard that the eldest lady of the Shi family wanted to be Princess Jin. That's probably why she ordered someone to assassinate Princess Jin."
"She is so heartbroken. Princess Jin gave birth to four lovely children for Prince Jin, and she wholeheartedly helped the prince with his affairs. Why did she kill someone to become Princess Jin? Let me tell you, even if she really killed Princess Jin, Prince Jin would not
I won’t marry her.”
"Wishful thinking is just a daydream."
Everything was said in front of the government office, and the governor Qian immediately ordered people to go to the Shi family to arrest Shi Linhui and bring him to justice.
Shi Linhui had already boarded the carriage arranged by Shi Chengzhi and was preparing to leave Cangcheng and return to the capital.
She failed in instigating someone to assassinate Feng Jing. As long as she leaves Youzhou and returns to the capital, His Majesty will not only not blame her, but may also have a good impression of her because of her actions and will give her a good marriage.
What can Shi Linhuineng do? He can only take people out of Youzhou, otherwise he will definitely be in trouble.
However, Shi Linhui and the Shi family never imagined that Pei Lin had already prevented Shi Linhui from escaping, so when he mentioned the explanation of the guards, he arranged for a few men to guard the Shi residence.
As soon as Shi Linhui got on the carriage and was about to leave, she was surrounded by the guards of Prince Jin's Mansion.
"Miss Shi, please come with us to the government office."
Shi Linhui was frightened and shouted with a pale face: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"
The leading guard looked at Shi Linhui and sneered: "Miss Shi dared to instruct the Shi family guards to assassinate our princess. She is really brave."
When Shi Linhui heard what the guards said, cold sweat ran down her forehead. These people were actually guards from the Jin Palace. This meant that the guards of the Shi family handed her over. If she really went to the government office, she would probably be thrown into prison.
"I don't understand what you are saying, I didn't do anything."
At this moment, Shi Linhui regretted sending the Shi family guards to assassinate Feng Jing.
She didn't expect that Feng Jing would be accompanied by so many masters when she went up the mountain, and Prince Jin would really protect her.
Shi Linhui was filled with jealousy, jealousy, hatred and fear, and all kinds of feelings came over her.
The guards of Prince Jin's Mansion were too lazy to pay attention to her, and stretched out their hands to pull Shi Linhui out of the carriage, when the police from the government office rushed over not far away.
"Miss Shi, the guards of the Shi family confessed that you ordered them to assassinate Princess Jin. Please come with us to the government office."
Shi Linhui was so frightened that she subconsciously shrank back into the carriage: "I didn't, it wasn't me, it wasn't me who instigated it."
Seeing that Shi Linhui was not cooperating, the head catcher stretched out his hand and pulled Shi Linhui out of the carriage, turned around and walked towards the government office.
The guards from the Jin Palace followed behind, and the group walked on the street, quickly attracting the attention of the people on the street.
Many people gathered on both sides of the street to watch, and some people murmured: "Isn't that the eldest lady of the Shizhou Mu family? What did she do?"
"Oh my god, who dares to arrest Miss Shi?"
"I heard that this eldest lady ordered someone to assassinate Princess Jin, and she was reported by the King of Jin. The governor Qian took over the case."
"This is really great. In the past, this eldest lady seemed to be aloof and superior to others. I didn't expect that she would become a prisoner now."
The people talked endlessly, but Shi Linhui just felt embarrassed and kept struggling. Unfortunately, the arrester ordered someone to tie her hands and drag her all the way to the government office.
In the government office, Mr. Shi received the news and rushed over.
At this moment, he clearly realized one thing. King Pei Lin of Jin had no intention of cooperating with the Shi family, he just wanted to get rid of him.
Shi Chengzhi was filled with uneasiness, his face was filled with sincerity and fear, and he apologized to Pei Lin.
"I apologize to King Jin and Princess Jin on behalf of my granddaughter. It is because of my incompetence in teaching that my granddaughter is allowed to do such irrational things. I hope that King Jin will spare her life. From now on, I will only obey King Jin."
These words directly indicated his attitude, and he would obey King Jin's orders in the future.
In Shi Chengzhi's original idea, his granddaughter ordered someone to assassinate Princess Feng Jing of Jin. Even if he failed in the end, he turned to the King of Jin and expressed his willingness to submit to the King of Jin and obey his orders.
King Jin would probably spare his granddaughter, which is why he didn't directly instruct his guards to assassinate Feng Jing.
It's a pity that Pei Lin didn't spare Shi Linhui as he imagined. He looked at Shi Chengzhi with cold eyes. He didn't even bother to use such two-faced things. If he can submit to him today, he will be able to submit to him tomorrow.
Stab him in the back.
"Master Shi, Miss Shi, as the granddaughter of a second-grade official, dares to instigate someone to assassinate my princess. Who gave her such courage? She must bear the consequences if she dares to assassinate my princess."
Shi Chengzhi's face turned pale. He could tell from Pei Lin's words that he would not let this matter go.
Shi Chengzhi regretted that he had taken the wrong path. He looked at Pei Lin with pleading eyes: "Your Majesty, everything is my fault. I am guilty. Please spare me for once."
This attitude can be said to be very low-key, but it's a pity that Pei Lin didn't even look at him.
Shi Chengzhi has been like a local emperor in Youzhou these years. He has never been so humiliated. But even if he lowered his attitude in such humiliation, the King of Jin still had no intention of letting his granddaughter go.
Shi Chengzhi couldn't help but feel hatred in his heart. He gritted his teeth and thought, since King Jin doesn't know how to praise, don't blame him for plotting against him.
Just as Shi Chengzhi was thinking about it, Shi Linhui was arrested and quickly pulled in outside the door.
At this time, the eldest lady of the Shi family had messy hair and disheveled clothes. Her formerly cold, arrogant and noble face was covered with tears. When she saw Shi Chengzhi, she couldn't help shouting: "Grandpa, save me."
Shi Chengzhi felt very distressed when he saw Shi Linhui like this.
He had watched Shi Linhui grow up. As the granddaughter of the Shi family, she had always been delicate and decent, but she had never been so embarrassed and miserable.
Seeing his granddaughter like this, Shi Chengzhi couldn't help but look at Pei Lin again, hoping that Pei Lin would be merciful and let his granddaughter go.
It's a pity that Pei Lin didn't seem to see it and looked at the governor Qian.
Master Qian quickly asked Shi Linhui below: "Miss Shi, was it Princess Jin who you ordered the servants of the Shi family to assassinate?"
Shi Linhui shook her head with a pale face: "It's not me, it's not me?"
This time Master Qian did not speak, but King Pei Lin of Jin spoke: "If it's not you, who is it?"
Shi Linhui stared blankly at the man who was looking at her coldly and gloomily. She had always thought that King Pei Lin of Jin was an unparalleled hero in the world, but at this moment she looked at this man with a violent aura around him and felt that he was a god of murder.
.
Shi Linhui was so frightened that she couldn't say a word.
Pei Lin spoke gloomily again: "Miss Shi, you said these guards were not ordered by you, then who ordered them to assassinate my princess, or who did you listen to do this?"
These words are just short of saying that Shi Chengzhi ordered the guards to assassinate Feng Jing.
