"Brother Lu Jin, Hong'er was able to conceal her fake pregnancy. How can we trust the doctors in this mansion?"
Hong'er was shocked and said, "Eldest sister, I have no grudge against you. Why are you slandering me like this in front of the Ninth Prince? Ling'er is just a girl. Just because she says I'm not pregnant, does that mean I'm not pregnant?" She cried to Lu Zhenzhi, "Ninth Prince, there must be a misunderstanding. How could Hong'er assassinate me and you? Besides, Hong'er is really pregnant with the emperor's heir!"
Lu Zhenzhi looked at the darkening sky outside, helped Fu Tong'er up, stood up and said, "It's getting late, take him to prison first and hand him over to the Ministry of Justice. Come on!"
Prince Hui pleaded hurriedly, "Ninth Uncle, Hong'er must not go to the Ministry of Justice. Once you go in, you can't get out without being tortured, Ninth Uncle!"
"Come here! Take Prince Hui's concubine to the prison. Hand her over to the Ministry of Justice for a thorough investigation!"
Two soldiers immediately came over and took Hong'er away.
"Pretending to be pregnant with the royal heir is an even greater crime!" Lu Zhenzhi said as he put his arm around Fu Tong'er's shoulders.
At this moment, a voice broke in from the door: "Wait a minute, Master Jiu!"
Lu Zhenzhi raised his eyes and looked towards the main hall gate. Seeing that it was General You Yi, he suddenly became suspicious. Why was You Yi connected with Prince Hui's Palace?
You Yi came in and clasped his fists: "Greetings to Master Jiu! His Royal Highness Prince Hui!"
"Why is General You Yi in Prince Hui's Mansion?" Lu Zhenzhi asked softly, his eyes seeming to see through You Yi.
General You Yi lowered his head and reported, "Master Jiu, I wanted to find Tongtong to discuss the details of tomorrow's second exam. I searched for him for a long time and found out he was at King Hui's place. I wanted to wait for you to come out, but you were nowhere to be found. So, I came in to take a look."
Fu Tong'er was suspicious: "Brother, when you came in just now, Brother Lu Jin was about to put this woman in jail, and you came and said, 'Master Jiu, wait a minute!' You didn't come here for me, you came here for her!"
Hong'er turned around. Wasn't this the man who had been following her? It turned out to be the general beside the Ninth Prince. She began to think again.
King Hui frowned, glanced at Hong'er, then glanced at You Yi, and said, "What's the relationship between you two? Hong'er, tell me! Are you hanging out with him and that's why you came back so late?!"
Lu Zhenzhi waved his hands impatiently: "Take her away! We will try her again tomorrow!" He could be patient with Fu Tong'er, but he really didn't have that much patience to wait for a concubine of King Hui tonight to find out if she was hanging out with other men.
"Tong'er, it's getting late. You still have a lot of growth to do."
As he spoke, Lu Zhenzhi picked up Fu Tong'er and carried her sideways: "Lean on me and sleep for a while. We'll be there when you wake up."
Fu Tong'er whispered: "Brother Lu Jin, I am not your child..."
Lu Zhenzhi said as he walked: "I will treat you as."
King Hui looked at the two of them, speechless.
Hong Er was taken to prison. The prison was guarded by Jiu Ye's men. Even King Hui was not allowed to visit. When he reached the prison gate, he was stopped by Jiu Ye's soldiers.
"Your Highness, Prince Hui, the Regent has ordered that no one is allowed to approach this place."
General You Yi also did not sleep all night. If he wanted to save Hong'er, he had to get there before Jiu Ye went south, otherwise he would definitely be punished!
The next day at Prince Chun's Mansion, in the morning, the Ninth Master went to sleep.
When Fu Tong'er woke up, Jiu Ye was already out of bed. She thought he had attended the morning court. But Qiao'er told her that he was meeting with the Minister of Revenue in another study and had a huge outburst.
After washing up, Fu Tong'er took some tea and went to Lu Zhenzhi's other study to look for him...
