Lu Zhenzhi said: "Jiang Chengyu monopolized the government salt, stole government silver, robbed houses, and abducted and sold decent women. He did so many evil things that it was only a matter of time before his family was raided."
"Didn't the Ninth Prince know about those things before? Isn't the entire Great Yan under the control of the Ninth Prince? Why did he suddenly want to kill him? What did Master Xue Shanlu do that the Ninth Prince wanted to force him to death?!"
"Nephew, didn't Jiang Chengyu say he had something to tell me? What is it?"
King Hui hesitated. If Minister Jiang really said that, it would probably make the Ninth Prince angry.
"Hmm? Tell me, I don't blame you."
"Yes... if you are unjust and unkind, your kindness will collapse!"
King Hui finished speaking——
Lu Zhenzhi lowered his head and sneered... then burst into laughter, his laughter shaking the earth...
"Unjust and unkind... He is about to collapse... I will live longer than his ancestors. He curses me when his time is up... He doesn't know how to live or die!"
Lu Zhenzhi laughed, pointed to the divorce agreement, and said, "Has my nephew decided? Do you want to sign it or give up your life?"
"Can I be alone with Tong'er one more time? One last chat?"
"Absolutely not. I will never allow you to meet alone again."
"Ninth Prince can be nearby," Prince Hui said, almost pleading, "Let me speak to her one more time."
"Sign first. I will go to the prison with you to get her out."
Seeing that King Hui was still hesitant, Lu Zhenzhi said, "The letter from the Bailian Sect is still with your father. If he can produce the handwriting for verification..."
King Hui walked quickly to Lu Zhenzhi's desk, took out a pen, picked up the divorce papers, and signed his name at the end.
"Oh, very good."
Lu Zhenzhi took the divorce letter and shouted, "Someone come!"
A guard came in: "Master Jiu!"
Lu Zhenzhi said calmly, "Tell Shadow to destroy the letter."
…
Inside the prison, Fu Tong'er paced back and forth. Jiu Ye had disappeared for several days. Could it be that the man was angry because of her scolding? He hadn't come to see her for so many days.
"Miss, please don't leave. Qiao'er is feeling dizzy."
"Qiao'er, have you written to my father? Why haven't you heard from him in so many days? Ten days or so would be enough for a horse to run back and forth."
"I really wrote it, young lady! How could Qiao'er lie to you about this? Perhaps, perhaps the Prime Minister was delayed by something."
"Impossible. Daddy has always responded to my requests. Even if he's busy with government affairs, what about my brother? He's not busy, right? Why doesn't he reply to my letters? That's not normal! Qiao'er, do you think that's normal? I doubt the letter even reached Daddy and my brother."
Just then, the sound of light footsteps caught Qiao'er's attention.
"Miss..." Qiao'er raised her voice, "Master Jiu may be busy - don't worry, he will definitely come to see you when he is free -"
The sound echoed back and forth in the prison.
"Qiao'er, why are you so loud? I'm not deaf, my lady."
The footsteps disappeared, but a familiar fragrance drifted in. Fu Tong'er smelled it and hurried to the cell door, shouting: "Hong'er! Is that you?"
"Hong'er! Is that you?"
Hong'er, is that you? - echoes echoed.
Qiao'er helped Fu Tong'er sit down and said, "The second young lady is now pregnant in Prince Hui's mansion and would never dare to provoke the eldest young lady again."
Fu Tong'er felt something was wrong. This sister had changed into another person's skin, and only she knew how Qiao'er recognized her.
"Qiao'er, how do you know Hong'er is the Second Miss?"
Qiao'er said, "My lady, you, the Second Miss, and I, the three of us grew up together. No matter how much the Second Miss changes, I will recognize her. Moreover, I saw the blue birthmark on her wrist, which makes me even more certain that Prince Hui's concubine Hong'er is the Second Miss."
Fu Tong'er was half-believing and half-doubting.
Qiao Er said, "The Second Miss has repeatedly and privately attempted to assassinate the First Miss. I wonder if she thinks her life is too long."
"Qiao'er, what did you say?"
…
"Miss," Qiao'er said as she straightened Fu Tong'er's clothes, "Master Jiu is very busy with court affairs, so you can't lose your temper all the time. Of course, letting Master Jiu suffer a little can also make him miss you. Master Jiu is not an ordinary man, you must understand that."
Two men were already standing outside the cell.
When he came, Lu Zhenzhi asked his men not to make any noise. Only then did he listen to Qiao'er's words in full, thinking to himself that this maid was no ordinary girl.
