The Fourth Prince's expression turned grim. He took a deep breath and said, "How do you explain the purses and silver in their hands?"
Bei Yutang approached the Fourth Prince, who frowned.
"What do you want to do?"
Bei Yutang raised her hand, then immediately retracted it. "Just now I saw a bug on the Fourth Prince's head and wanted to remove it. But when I took a closer look, I realized it was just an illusion."
The Fourth Prince frowned, "Don't change the subject."
"Okay, I will explain this to Your Highness."
Bei Yutang walked to Xue Qian and whispered a few words in his ear.
Xue Qian opened his eyes wide, but when he saw Bei Yutang nod to him, Xue Qian nodded as well.
"I have something to say." Xue Qian said.
Lord Wang, the Fourth Prince, and everyone else in prison were waiting to see what was going on.
"The reason I did this was because the Fourth Prince instructed me to do so." Xue Qian said.
Lord Wang was stunned, and everyone around him was shocked.
The Fourth Prince's face turned pale and he angrily said, "Stop talking nonsense! When did I ever give you any instructions?"
"Yes. The Fourth Prince pulled me into a corner early yesterday morning and gave me instructions. He told me to find someone to harm the Lei family. I have no influence and can only obey the Fourth Prince."
"You..." The Fourth Prince was furious. "You are just talking nonsense. Do you have any evidence to prove it?"
"Yes." Xue Qian said calmly, "I have a jade pendant from the Fourth Prince in my arms. This is a gift from the Fourth Prince to me."
Lord Wang did not bother anyone else and stepped forward himself. He found a jade pendant from Xue Qian's words, which was indeed Gu Fanzhi's personal jade pendant.
"This is the evidence." Xue Qian said.
When Gu Fanzhi saw the jade pendant, he immediately searched for the jade pendant around his waist, but found nothing.
It must be her. She just took advantage of it when she was close to him.
This is outrageous.
Gu Fanzhi said with a cold face, "Did you take this prince's jade pendant?"
Bei Yutang looked at him innocently, "Your Highness, do you have evidence to support your claims? You can't just say someone else did it because the truth has been revealed."
"Even if this prince wants to bribe, why would he use a personal jade pendant? Wouldn't that be giving someone something to hold against him?" Gu Fanzhi retorted coldly.
Bei Yutang said with a smile, "Even if my servant wanted to bribe someone, why would he give away his own purse? Wait until you let him identify the person and let him admit it directly. Did he get kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"Puff"...
A jailer couldn't help laughing, but when he saw the gloomy expression on the Fourth Prince's face, he immediately covered his mouth.
This situation is so similar to Xue Qian's injustice.
Lord Wang understood, and how could Gu Fanzhi not understand this truth?
She was giving him a taste of his own medicine, letting him experience the feeling of being unable to defend himself.
This is the best proof that the evidence is credible.
The smile on Lord Wang's lips grew wider and wider, but when he realized that it was too obvious, he immediately restrained his smile.
"Your Highness, I wonder if you are satisfied with my testimony?" Bei Yutang asked.
Gu Fanzhi had nothing to say.
He stood up unhappily and was about to leave when he heard Bei Yutang say, "Your Highness, with your wisdom, I'm sure you already have the answer in your mind, without me telling you. Who is the mastermind behind this incident?"
The Fourth Prince turned his head and looked at her, giving her a deep look.
After he left, Lord Wang ordered the bailiffs to release Xue Qian.
"Punish these four severely and see if they will tell the truth," Lord Wang ordered.
