Chapter 71 Shouldn't He Die?
Cheng Nianying's eyes widened slightly: "Who is outside?"
"The Tiger Wing Army and the Zhongzhou Wing Army."
"them……"
Fu Yi smiled and replied, "There are bandits in Kuizhou, and they are here to suppress them."
"But the prince said that His Majesty does not want to make a big deal out of this."
"Now we have something bigger to cover up, so we have to act quickly."
"Something bigger?"
"Well, bigger things than a state rebellion."
Cheng Nianying still had another question: "If I go out now, will people outside recognize me as one of our own?"
"Then the hood will be lifted."
So dressing like a monk can be used to distinguish between friend and foe!
Cheng Nianying stood up and held Fu Yi's wrist, and then the two walked out together.
When he reached the door, Fu Yi paused, raised his foot to wipe the blood off the surface of his shoe on someone, then stepped over the corpse and continued walking out.
"Some people died. If you are afraid, hold me tighter." Fu Yi said.
He almost forgot to pretend. Cheng Nianying quickly grabbed him tightly.
Only then did Wu Xun come out from the corner, brushed off the dust on his clothes, and followed.
When Cheng Nianying and his group arrived at the front hall, the emperor was already standing in the center of the courtyard.
Li Ping's body, along with Li Jinjiang, whose life was hanging by a thread, were placed in the courtyard.
Mr. Liu and others were pinned to the ground and unable to move.
Cheng Nianying couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's only been a few days." It hasn't even been a month.
Fu Yi whispered, "Because you played a big role, you are a hero."
"I?"
"Li Jinjiang can save a lot of trouble by taking you and the prince into the city."
At this time, a door not far away opened and someone helped the prince out.
The prince breathed a sigh of relief: "Father! I am relieved to see that you are safe and sound."
The emperor stared at him but said nothing.
The prince gradually realized that the atmosphere was not right: "Father..."
The emperor finally spoke and asked, "Why did you collude with Liping?"
The prince was dumbfounded.
Even the people in the prefectural government suddenly raised their heads. What?
Cheng Nianying blinked and turned to look at Fu Yi, wanting to hear if he would explain it to her.
Fu Yi's face was filled with interest at this moment.
It's like watching a play.
"Why do you say that, father? How could I, your son, collude with Liping?" The prince's mind was in a mess and he didn't even know how to defend himself.
Because he had no idea why his father suspected him.
"Liping has always had dealings with a nobleman in the imperial capital." The emperor began.
When Mr. Liu heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and then he looked very strange.
"That person is not me!" the prince roared, "How could it be me?"
The emperor waved his hand and said, "Go find the letter in Liping's hand."
The people from the Palace Front Department responded and entered the study.
The prince turned to look at Lord Liu and shouted at him, "Do you know who that person is that has been in contact with Li Ping? Tell me! Who is that person?"
Lord Liu finally understood.
It turned out to be just a struggle against the imperial capital, using Kuizhou as a battlefield. From the very beginning, Kuizhou's rebellion was not taken seriously by the higher-ups.
He laughed and said, "Not the prince."
"Did your Majesty hear that?" the prince asked the emperor hurriedly, "Not your son!"
The emperor just looked at him.
The prince came to his senses and said, "Don't you think that the more they say it's not me, the more they are covering up for me?"
"Your Majesty." At this time, the Palace Guard came out with a box. The lock of the box had been smashed, revealing a thick stack of letters inside.
The emperor picked up one at random: "...The latest one is written to Li Ping, informing him: The emperor and Fu Yi will be in Kuizhou."
The prince was so angry that his face turned blue, but he didn't dare to lose his temper in front of the emperor. He could only say, "Look at that handwriting, is it mine?"
"It doesn't look like your handwriting."
The prince breathed a sigh of relief.
"But why did the writer mention me and Fu Yi, but not you?"
"What if it was a deliberate frame-up?" The Crown Prince suddenly turned to look at Fu Yi. "It was Prince Danshuo who framed me! I've always had a bad relationship with him. He was worried that I would settle accounts with him when I succeeded to the throne, so he plotted against me..."
The emperor threw the letter in front of him and said, "Look at the signature yourself."
Cheng Nianying couldn't help but take a step forward, and then saw the word - Shu.
The emperor sighed softly, "When you were young, you often had convulsions, so I gave you a nickname. It borrowed the calmness of water to calm your mind. After you were seven years old, this name was abandoned. How did you know it, Fu Yi?"
The prince stiffened his neck and said, "I refuse to accept your request. How can you convict me based on this?"
Cheng Nianying clenched her fingers.
Shu.
The lover who sent the letter to Qin Yurong signed it with this character. The same character was also on the waist badge that the man dropped.
But she had clearly checked and found that the prince had no injuries!
so……
From a long time ago, some people have been acting in the name of the prince, perhaps for today?
Cheng Nianying tugged at Fu Yi's hand and whispered, "Could it be that the prince has been wrongly accused?"
Fu Yi looked back, lowered his head, leaned close to her ear, chuckled, and asked, "Madam, he bullied you like that before and knocked you into the water. Shouldn't he have died?"
Cheng Nianying was stunned.
Her ears felt hot and she felt inexplicably scared.
Why are you afraid?
Why are you afraid?
The person who framed the prince was not Prince Danshuo, but Qin Yurong's lover. However, Fu Yi should have known that the prince would be questioned today.
But he also said that it was the prince who wanted to kill me first.
"What are you thinking about, madam?" Fu Yi stared at her.
Cheng Nianying hesitated and said, "I remember what you told me before. Once a person has doubts, it doesn't matter how much they doubt."
Fu Yi smiled and said, "Well, you have a good memory, that's exactly it."
"Then in the future, will he... treat you like he did today?" Cheng Nianying glanced quickly at the emperor.
Fu Yi paused.
After a while, he said again: "My wife really cares about me."
