The old woman's eyes were still looking at the cell door not far away, Huijing's voice floated in her ears, her face had a complicated expression, but she did not forget to answer Huijing's words, so as not to make Huijing more suspicious.
"Is it true, will mother lie to you?" The old woman said hoarsely, "In order to save the prince, I came to the capital and tried every means, and was arrested along with the prince. How could the prince still believe that bitch?
People would question me, everything I do is for the good of the prince."
Huijing twisted the beads: "I asked you if there was anything that could prove my identity, but you never mentioned the seal."
When the old woman heard this, she looked around in horror: "Knowing too much can be dangerous. This is my painstaking effort. Don't say more, lest others will overhear you." That bitch of the Xu family.
He deliberately asked her if she had shown it to Huijing before, just to sow discord between them. That bitch is really scheming and will definitely die in the future.
Huijing continued: "I heard from the master that I was thrown in front of the temple. When the senior brother found me, I was almost dead. It looked like I had just been born a few days ago."
Huijing mentioned these past events, which made the old woman very unhappy: "The Master knows my situation at that time. If I really couldn't survive, I would not endure the pain of separation between my mother and my son. Thanks to the compassion of the master in the temple."
...Of course, Prince An is alive in heaven, so the prince can survive."
Huijing continued: "For many years, you have never visited me in the temple."
"I've been there, all... secretly," the old woman moistened her lips, "What's the point of talking about it now? Don't let the prince take advantage of Mrs. Xu. It was she who put the prince in this situation.
, otherwise you will still be the respected monk."
Speaking of this, the old woman said angrily: "The Xu family is very eloquent and can turn black into white. She just doesn't want the Zhou royal family to recognize the identity of the Crown Prince. I don't know what other methods she will use in the future...
…”
Having said this, the old woman looked forward again, as if she heard the sound of a whip, and she couldn't help but shrink.
"Everyone who enters a prison must suffer some pain," Huijing said suddenly, "You seem to know the two people who were arrested just now."
"Who?" the old woman asked, "Which two people? What is the prince talking about?"
The old woman hid herself in the darkness again, so that no one could see her face clearly: "With them like this, I don't know if they can survive until the day when the prince is released."
The old woman slowly lay down as if she was afraid that Huijing would ask her questions again, as if she could no longer hold herself up.
Huijing still slowly twisted the beads in her hands.
When the old woman thought everything would be peaceful, she heard Huijing say: "You have been lying to me all this time. If you don't tell me all the truth, I will not accompany you to continue acting."
The old woman asked in surprise: "What do you want to do?"
Huijing said: "I just want to hear you tell the truth, otherwise I will tell them that the two people I just captured are very important to you."
The old woman felt that her throat was being strangled tightly, and she couldn't breathe at all. She sat up all of a sudden: "Do you know what you are doing?"
"Those two people came all the way to find you. It seems that you didn't settle them before coming to the capital. You care about them more than me. I guess..." Huijing raised her eyes, "Quzhen is your name in the northwest.
, but you never told me."
The old woman wanted to cover Huijing's mouth immediately to prevent him from continuing to speak.
"You got married, changed your identity, and had a child." Huijing's eyes were like a beast in the dark night, flashing with dangerous light, but his tone was still compassionate, just like the Buddha sitting on a high platform and preaching.
"You abandoned me at the gate of the temple and never returned. You don't even know if I survived. So when you first come to the temple, you have to ask the old monk about my whereabouts. After you see me, look at me repeatedly.
, to confirm whether I am that child.
Since you are going to abandon me, why do you have to go and come back?"
The old woman stretched out her hand to stop Huijing from continuing to speak: "Master Shizi, what's wrong with you? Don't let others fool you."
"Someone found you," Huijing said without stopping. "Someone asked you to recognize me, reveal the grievances of Prince An's Mansion to me, and ask me to avenge Prince An's Mansion."
"No...no..." The old woman could only deny but could not say anything else.
"Amitabha," Huijing said, "I don't resent you. As long as you tell me, I will forgive you. Otherwise, I will use other means to find out. There is the Great Zhou Dynasty here, and there are my followers in Uzang. I want to
It’s not hard to do something.”
The old woman's whole body began to tremble.
Huijing said quietly: "It seems that everything is true. If I were of King An's blood, would you abandon me like this? There is indeed something suspicious in this. I was so focused on revenge that I didn't even see clearly. Everything Miss Xu said
It’s the truth.”
"No, no," the old woman said, "That's not the case... You were deceived, deceived by Mrs. Xu."
As soon as the old woman finished speaking, she heard the sound of footsteps. The jailer came over and whipped the old woman: "What are you shouting for? It's not honest to be put in jail. I don't think you have suffered."
"I want to see him," Huijing said calmly, "I must see him."
The jailer raised his whip but did not hit Huijing: "Be honest, there are rules in the prison. No matter what your identity is, don't blame me for being rude next time we talk."
After the jailer left, the clerk took the memorized documents to Cheng Ruhai, the Minister of Punishment, for inspection.
Cheng Ruhai couldn't help but frown when he saw the record: "The eldest lady of the Anyi Hou Mansion is really capable. She alienated the relationship between Huijing and the old woman with just a few words. If this continues, I think the case will soon be solved."
looks."
After Cheng Ruhai finished speaking, he handed the document in his hand to Li Xu.
Li Xu lowered his head and looked carefully. He knew that Miss Xu would definitely gain something when she came to the prison.
Cheng Ruhai picked up the tea and took a sip: "It seems that Huijing is most likely not the heir of Prince An. After the memorial is presented, the emperor can feel relieved." The Holy Emperor is happy, and they will all live a good life.
"If Miss Xu is a man, I will definitely recommend him to become an official," Cheng Ruhai smiled, "it has really helped us a lot."
"Sir," Li Xu said, "should we be careful in the prison for these two days in case something happens?"
Cheng Ruhai was surprised: "How do you say that?"
Li Xu said: "Huijing knows in his heart that we will put people in the prison to eavesdrop on his conversation with the woman. Why would he say these words so recklessly?"
Cheng Ruhai asked in confusion: "Why?"
Li Xu's eyes were clear: "Huijing found out that he had been deceived. He wanted to force out the person who was controlling him and ask that person to come out and explain clearly to him. If that person refused to come forward, Huijing would reveal more of the truth.
.
Huijing was imprisoned and could not pass on the news, so she borrowed our hands to tell the person."
Cheng Ruhai took the document to look at it again, and sure enough, he saw Huijing finally saying: I want to see him.
Is this him the person behind the scenes who controls Wang Yun, Su Wan and Huijing?
How will the person behind the scenes meet Huijing?
Cheng Ruhai suddenly felt hopeful, but he was also worried that something big might happen in the prison of the Criminal Department.
