But who doesn't know that Shao Lecheng is Jing Yuchen's man?
Miao Li couldn't help but speak: "Queen Mother, the prince..."
"Don't talk too much unless someone asks you a question!"
Miao Li had to swallow what he was about to say.
Miao Qinghua looked at Shao Lecheng steadily, as if she was guessing what Shao Lecheng's purpose was in coming here.
Now there is a witness who proves that it was Miao Li who injured Jing Yuchen, and she has no way to exonerate Miao Li. But if Shao Lecheng can speak up to defend Miao Li, Miao Li may be able to turn things around.
But will he speak for Miao Li?
Now is also a good opportunity to verify whether Shao Lecheng has broken off relations with the people in the Regent's Palace.
"Prince, since you were in the tavern that day, did you see or hear anything? Now it is your turn to testify. Are you willing?"
Shao Lecheng smiled and said, "Of course I heard it, saw it, and am willing to testify!"
Then he looked at Kang Xueyi, stood up straight, and reported: "Sir, the King of Japan is also in the restaurant. He heard some noise outside, so he came out to take a look."
"I noticed a fight going on, but the people fighting were too familiar to me, and I didn't want to get into trouble, so I just watched from a distance and didn't go over to help."
As he spoke, he lowered his eyes to look at the person kneeling on the ground, and helplessly accused: "I was in the room next to you at the time. How come you didn't hear a thing? And you misunderstood what happened!"
Hearing what Shao Lecheng said, the other party was obviously confused.
Shao Lecheng sighed and said, "I saw it with my own eyes. General Miao passed by the Regent at that time. He flicked his sleeve in anger. From the perspective of this common people, it was seen as an attack on the Regent. In fact, it didn't happen at all!"
He then said with immense confidence, "That was a wave of the sleeve, understand? As for the words, I heard them clearly. It seems the general has taken a fancy to this young lady on the ground. She is the cause of this incident!"
"But that's not the key point. The key point is that the Regent fainted for another reason, and it has nothing to do with General Miao!"
Miao Li was very surprised to hear Shao Lecheng's remarks. He didn't expect that Jing Yuchen's people would one day speak up for him. Isn't this a bit too strange?
While he was surprised, Shao Lecheng glanced at Ni Yueshan with a very proud expression.
Ni Yueshan clenched his fists and then looked at Kang Xueyi: "Sir, if the prince vetoes something, does that count? Isn't that unfair?"
The man kneeling on the ground scratched his head and said hesitantly, "It seems that I was indeed mistaken that day. Fortunately, Prince, you showed up in time, otherwise I would have given a false confession and wrongly accused an innocent person."
As he spoke, he apologized repeatedly to Miao Li: "I'm sorry, General Miao, I was wrong. Please don't blame me, General Miao!"
Before Miao Li could speak, Miao Qinghua spoke first, "Now that the truth has been revealed, the case can be closed!"
Kang Xueyi wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had been very nervous. On one side was the Regent, and on the other was the Queen Mother. He couldn't please either side, but for now, the Queen Mother was the winner, so he had no choice but to offend the Regent's Palace.
"Princess, look, the witness's testimony has changed. No one can accurately prove that it was General Miao who did it. The cause of the Regent's coma needs to be thoroughly investigated and another cause needs to be found!"
Ni Yueshan frowned and stood up: "And Yanle testified!"
Yanle shuddered and clenched her fists nervously. All eyes of Kang Xueyi and the others fell on Yanle. Yanle said with some embarrassment: "Listening to the prince's words, I feel like I was wrong..."
Ni Yueshan also changed his confession, took a deep breath and looked away.
Miao Qinghua chuckled and said coldly, "Master Temple Minister, the case has been investigated. I will not stay any longer. The rest is up to you!"
As she spoke, she glanced at Shao Lecheng, who was looking at Ni Yueshan with a smug look on his face, full of sarcasm.
She withdrew her gaze and walked out.
A group of palace guards also followed him out of the Dali Temple.
Shao Lecheng stood at the bottom of the courtroom with his arms folded across his chest. He said, "Sir, as a witness, I have finished presenting my evidence. Goodbye!"
He picked up the toothpick again and walked away.
Ni Yueshan lowered his eyes and looked at Yanle, who murmured softly, "I'm sorry."
Miao Li stood up from the ground and cursed with his hoarse voice: "You bitch, you are such a slut! Bah!"
Then, he didn't forget to glance at Ni Yueshan and left with great pride.
Ni Yueshan didn't stop anyone and just stood there without moving.
Kang Xueyi finally stepped out of his seat and said helplessly, "Princess Regent, it's not that I don't want to help you, but with the prince testifying, I have no other choice. Everyone knows that the prince has a good relationship with your Regent Palace, but now he's willing to testify. Is there any testimony more convincing than this?"
Ni Yueshan didn't say anything to embarrass her, but simply nodded. Then he said to Yanle, "Get up and go back!"
In the palace, Zou Yangyao, Xiao Chuer and Lin Yushan were still waiting for the result.
Seeing Ni Yueshan coming with Yanle following behind him, with no joy on their faces, several people couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Yueshan, is the situation bad?" Zou Yangyao walked forward with a troubled look on his face.
Ni Yueshan nodded: "Yes, the situation is not good."
Yanle lowered her head and said with a guilty look on her face, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I got a little nervous and couldn't stick to my initial confession, so I lost the case!"
As he spoke, he sighed deeply, his face full of self-blame.
Unexpectedly, Ni Yueshan placed his hand on hers and said comfortingly, "No, you did the right thing."
Yanle was stunned. Ni Yueshan said she was right?
She looked at Ni Yueshan in confusion, but Ni Yueshan didn't explain much. He looked at the people present and asked, "Have you all eaten? If not, let's have a meal together!"
Zou Yangyao shook his head: "Yueshan, are you feeling upset and pretending to be fine? You are stubborn and you reported someone to the Dali Temple but it was unsuccessful. Now the Regent is still lying in there. If you are really upset, just say it!"
"We can still find evidence again! We must arrest him and avenge the Regent!"
Seeing Zou Yangyao's face full of worry and Xiao Chu'er beside him clearly rolling her eyes, Ni Yueshan coughed awkwardly and said with a smile, "I'm really fine, but I do need to trouble you with something."
Zou Yangyao was even more stunned: "You're still laughing? Yueshan, can you be more normal? If you want to cry, just cry. It's ugly to laugh!"
Ni Yueshan: “…”
Xiao Chuer pulled Zou Yangyao's hand away from Ni Yueshan's wrist, saying, "If you want to talk, just talk properly. Why are you hitting me?"
Then she looked at Ni Yueshan and asked, "Yueshan, you just said that there was something useful for him? What is it? But your smile is really weird..."
