Tian Linwen, whose consciousness was already a little blurred, gritted his teeth and used all his willpower to prevent himself from fainting.
He kept encouraging himself in his heart.
I believe that the Eighth Prince's people are capable of killing and silencing people.
The deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei personally led people to the cell where the housekeeper of the Tian family was imprisoned.
When the jailer saw them rushing over, he quickly followed them into the cell.
When they arrived at the door of the cell where the housekeeper of the Tian family was imprisoned, they saw a man in prison clothes who had been hanged inside the cell.
This made the deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei's face change drastically.
The other party was murdered to silence him.
In order to protect Tian Linwen, the person hiding behind him hanged him in the cell, but gave people the illusion that he committed suicide.
Things became more troublesome than before.
The deputy commander of the Xiaoyu Guard hurriedly turned around, grabbed the collar of the prison warden following behind him, and asked seriously, "Who has come to visit the people in here in the past few days?"
The jailer thought for a moment and shook his head in fear, "Sir, I have always followed your instructions and have been guarding outside. I haven't seen anyone come in!"
The jailer had just finished speaking when he suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, right, I had diarrhea about an incense stick ago, so I went to the toilet!"
"Open the cell!"
The deputy commander of Xiao Yuwei snatched the key to the cell, and after the door of the cell was opened, he was the first to rush in.
The others behind him hurried forward to help and freed the hanging person.
The deputy commander squatted down, reached out and touched the man's breath, his face looked very unhappy.
Inside the Xinwang Palace.
The eighth prince Xiao Chengyan was standing in the pavilion in the mansion when a man in black suddenly appeared behind him.
"Master, the housekeeper of the Tian residence has been dealt with, but we didn't have time to take action against the remaining people!"
After hearing this, Xiao Chengyan's narrow single eyelids flashed with a sharp light.
"Nothing, I've already prepared for the worst!"
The rest depends on Tian Linwen's own luck.
If he is unlucky and is caught by Xiao Yuwei's men with other evidence, then it will have nothing to do with him.
I hope Tian Linwen can save his life.
After all, this person is still very useful to him.
In the court.
When everyone was getting impatient, the commander of the Xiaoyu Guard came to the hall with several prisoners.
"Your Majesty, the housekeeper of the Tian residence had already been hanged alive when I entered the cell. The remaining people were involved in the slander against Princess Anle."
As soon as the deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei finished speaking, Tian Linwen's voice was heard from the hall, shouting loudly that he was wronged.
"Your Majesty, I truly did not do anything to maliciously slander Princess Anle. I did not instigate these people. Please, Your Majesty, clear my name."
That’s great. He didn’t misjudge the person. The Eighth Prince was very powerful. He was able to sneak into Xiao Yuwei’s prison without anyone noticing and kill the person.
The rest of the people took orders directly from the steward of Yu Tian's mansion and did not see him directly.
I'm not afraid of what these people will confess to my face.
Marquis Wei Jing, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling for fear of Emperor Jianchang's anger, suddenly raised his head.
"Your Majesty, regarding the testimony against Tian Linwen, it seems to me that this steward was tortured into confessing by the Xiao Yuwei, and then killed to silence him."
When the deputy commander of Xiaoyuwei heard that someone was throwing dirty water on them, he was furious.
"Marquis Wei Jing, please stop slandering me. I, Xiao Yuwei, handle cases impartially and always rely on evidence."
"Your prison cell is the most difficult place in the Great Zhou to disclose information. If someone dies in your cell, the person who should be most suspected is you, the Xiao Yuwei."
Wei Jinghou's words were agreed and convinced by most officials in the court.
The deputy commander of Xiao Yuwei was so angry that his face turned red and his hands were shaking.
At this time, Xiao Lichen, who had been sitting in a wheelchair, spoke.
