Chapter 14 Even if the witness confessed, it was the Ninth Prince who tortured him into confession.



Yes, what if they accused Zhu'er of jumping into the water by herself?

Whenever the Ninth Prince tortured them, they would insist that they had confessed under torture.

The two maids couldn't bear the pain and were forced to tell lies. There is no other evidence in this case. The Ninth Prince is despicable for using such a cruel method to destroy Zhu'er's innocence.

If the Ninth Prince insists on making the so-called investigation results public, the people in the Wen Ning Marquis' Mansion can also argue with reason.

The ancestors of their Jiang family had made great contributions to the emperor, and the Wen Ning Marquis Mansion has continued to this day and can be regarded as a century-old family with profound heritage. He didn't believe that if they defended Jiang Huaizhu at all costs, the Emperor and the Empress Dowager would not give the Jiang family any face and allow the Ninth Prince to tarnish Zhu'er's reputation.

The worst outcome would be the annulment of the marriage, but seeing that the Ninth Prince was determined to break off relations with the Marquis Wen Ning's Mansion, there was no hope for Zhu'er to become a princess.

Zhu'er is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wen Ning's Mansion. Even if she cannot marry the Ninth Prince, she can still enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of her life by finding a husband of equal status and talent. With the protection of her natal family, she can still enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of her life.

Jiang Jinyi clenched his fists and made up his mind:

"We've already let Zhu'er suffer the pain of being bled and tortured once, and we must not let her suffer any injustice again."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a sneer coming from outside the yard gate.

"You two young masters truly have a deep brotherly love for Miss Jiang. I asked you to investigate the case, but instead of trying to find out the truth, you only thought about how to protect your sister.

But have you forgotten that your own sister also suffered the pain of bloodletting, and it was you who inflicted it on her."

Jiang Jinyan's expression changed slightly and he turned around, only to see the Ninth Prince, dressed in a purple robe and looking very heroic, walk in.

And in front of the Ninth Prince, there were two men.

The older man was wearing a bright yellow robe. His handsome face had a slightly cold expression, and he exuded an aura of majesty without even being angry.

The other man looked to be about the same age as the Ninth Prince, but his hair was white and frosted, and was casually tied behind his head with a jade hairpin. He was only wearing a simple white robe, and there was no trace of luxury on him, but he had a noble and otherworldly temperament, making him look like a hermit who had lived in seclusion for a long time.

In contrast to the calm and elegant demeanor of a celebrity, the man's face was so handsome and intense that it seemed like a demon, especially his extremely expressive phoenix eyes. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the depths of his pupils were filled with an unusual blood color.

In the Great Sheng Dynasty, there was only one person with blood-red pupils known to the world, but he was not regarded as a monster, but was instead revered as a lucky sign protecting the country.

Jiang Xiancao raised the corner of his lips and kindly reminded the stunned Jiang brothers:

"My two young masters, why don't you kneel down and salute when you see your father and uncle?"
