Aunt Cui was shaking with pain and kneeling on the ground in humility.
The wound on her hand was so deep that if she applied even a little force, blood and festering would appear, as if a piece of her flesh was being pinched off alive.
Facing her wailing, Shen Fu remained calm.
She is so cruel.
Ever since she knew that her parents' death might be related to Cui, the hatred in Shen Fu's heart was about to burn.
But Cui is still here, pretending to be stupid.
Did she think that she could get away with it with just a few words or her poor acting skills?
"You're going to tell me or not!"
Shen Fu’s armor was almost sinking into Aunt Cui’s flesh.
Cui was shaking with pain, and finally she could only face Chen Fu's face, gritting her teeth and shouting: "I don't know anything, I don't know anything."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Fu's hand, which had been pinching her palm, also fell down.
"I'm afraid you won't be willing to give in until you're about to die."
Cui held her hand and looked at the flesh that was about to fall off.
Suddenly he covered his hands and started crying.
"Wipe it." A hint of annoyance flashed across Shen Fu's brows.
Cui is really too cunning.
She could kill Old Madam Shen without hesitation, and she could also kill her adulterer who escaped with her without any effort.
This means that the Cui family is not so easy to deal with.
As it was, she was acting crazy and stupid here, and Chen Fu had no way to deal with her for a moment.
A handkerchief was handed over from behind. Wansui Ye looked at Shen Fu's hand and stuffed it into her hand: "Even if you are anxious, you have to find the person's lifeline."
Xiao Yu lowered his head and looked at Chen Fu helplessly.
The eyes that were cold just now now finally showed a hint of helplessness.
: "This is not how you interrogate a prisoner."
Shen Fu took the handkerchief and wiped her fingertips carefully.
There were already traces of blood on the armor, and Shen Fu wiped it off with a calm expression. But his eyes were looking towards Cui.
Cui was still the same as before.
He smiled foolishly, holding his injured hand, his expression distorted by the pain.
But still refused to give in.
"I am just angry."
She was angry that Aunt Cui was still like this, and she was also angry that Aunt Cui had a face that looked like her own.
She looks like a relative and has indeed done a lot of bad things.
This is what makes Shen Fu most angry at Aunt Cui.
"You sit over there." Xiao Yu pointed to the chair behind him.
"Leave this to me."
Shen Fu also knew that this was not her forte.
What Aunt Cui did still needs to be said by her herself.
Xiao Guizi stepped forward and helped Chen Fu to sit down.
Xiao Yu took a step forward and walked towards Aunt Cui.
He first lowered his head and whispered a few words into Xiao Baozi's ear, then he looked at the people in the prison.
"Cui."
His Majesty's tone was full of intimidation.
Just after he finished speaking, Cui, who was kneeling on the ground, shuddered all over.
But she still didn't speak.
His eyes fell on the eyes of the Emperor in front of him, and his pupils were still cloudy.
"You have no father and no children." Cui's family was not well off. She was just the daughter of a hunter at the foot of a mountain.
But after she followed Shen Changshan to Kyoto, she never went there again.
Even after his father died, he didn't even go to see him.
When talking about her father, Cui's face was dull and expressionless.
Knowing this, Xiao Yu said: "You only have one daughter, Shen Qingru."
After hearing those three words, Cui's cold eyes slowly moved.
She raised her head and looked at the person in front of her.
Even those who have never seen the Emperor will still shudder involuntarily when they see His Majesty.
This is a kind of fear and terror that emerges from deep within the heart.
Cui looked up and saw Xiao Yu continue to say, "But unfortunately, your daughter is gone."
"Daughter..." Cui murmured, "My Ru'er, my Ru'er."
She looked at Shen Fu expectantly.
His eyes looked at Chen Fu eagerly, and his outstretched palm was trembling: "Ruru, there, Ru'er, mine."
Xiao Yu's eyes were extremely cold.
He looked at Cui deeply: "Shen Qingru's body has been buried in Wanquan Mountain for more than a year."
"If you still don't admit it, I don't mind having someone throw you out right now!"
As soon as the words fell, the expression on Cui's face froze instantly.
He raised his head and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.
"Devil!" Her whole body was shaking, shivering like a fallen leaf in autumn.
There was complete disbelief in those eyes.
He looked at His Majesty with fearful eyes, his eyes trembling: "No, no."
"Now Zhiyu is not pretending to be stupid anymore?" Xiao Yu looked at Cui calmly.
However, Cui ran directly in his direction: "It's you, you killed my Ru'er."
Her daughter should have the best baby in the world.
Wealth, splendor and a glorious future should all be hers.
She should sit in the most honorable seat.
It’s all because of the person in front of me, it’s all because of him! Cui pointed her finger downwards, then pointed at Chen Fu beside her with trembling hands.
"It's all because of you!"
If it weren't for her, how could her Qingru have died.
Cui slowly knelt down.
"My child, my child..." Cui knelt on the ground and cried hard.
"You are dead, but you are still being humiliated like this."
Thinking of this, Cui's body couldn't help but twitch.
It’s all because of Shen Fu.
If it weren't for Shen Fu, the situation today wouldn't be like this.
Cui's eyes were full of coldness.
After Chen Fu read it, she sneered and walked forward little by little: "Now you don't pretend anymore?"
Cui put her hands on the ground and stood up with unsteady steps.
The wounds on her body were so deep that it was extremely difficult for her to just stand up.
After getting up from the ground, Cui seemed to have exhausted all his strength.
"What do you want to do after you capture me?" She looked at Shen Fu with eyes as vicious as a snake.
"It's not enough that you killed my child, but you're also trying to force our entire family to die?"
"You said this as if this was all my fault?" Shen Fu actually admired Aunt Cui a little.
This kind of logic can blame all your mistakes on others.
"Do you know what Shen Qingru did in the palace?" Shen Fu's eyes were full of coldness.
"She framed me. This is all her own fault."
Shen Fu hasn't thought of Shen Qingru for a long time. I only remember the various traps she had set me.
Didn't Shen Qingru deserve to die?
Thinking about it now, Shen Fu felt that she should die.
"Even if she harmed you, can you kill her?" Aunt Cui kept coughing, and it seemed as if her breath could stop at any time.
But after hearing this, he still suddenly yelled at Shen Fu: “That’s a life, how dare you.”
That's her child.
It was the child she raised with great care.
How dare she, how dare she kill her like that?
"What about Old Lady Shen?" Shen Fu sneered, "Isn't Old Lady Shen's life a human life?"
"She deserves to die because she is in trouble?"
As soon as Shen Fu finished speaking, the expression on Aunt Cui's face changed instantly.
And in the corner deep inside the cell where no one could see, a thin figure began to tremble uncontrollably after hearing these words.
"No..." The hesitant sound just came out of his throat, but a hand behind him blocked his mouth.
"Master Shen." The guard behind him tightly grasped his shoulders, but his hand holding the handkerchief was tightly blocked.
"You better keep your voice down. If anyone hears you, we'll all be dead."
After the threatening tone fell, Shen Changshan's struggling body finally slowed down a little.
But the handkerchief covering his mouth was still tightly held, not daring to relax even a little.
As Cui faced Chen Fu, her expression gradually became complicated, and a hint of guilt appeared in her eyes.
Just a moment later, it was covered up again.
"How...how do you know?" Aunt Cui shook her head and mustered up her courage: "I, I didn't kill her!"
"Really?" Shen Fu replied, "The day you ran away, Old Madam Shen died in the yard."
“It was icy and snowy outside. When she was found, Mrs. Shen’s body was frozen stiff.”
Chen Fu suppressed her sarcasm and said, "You are the one who caused all this trouble?"
Cui couldn't help but think of the scene of that day.
How did she kill her?
It was she who wanted to hit herself, yes, it was Old Madam Shen who wanted to hit her!
Cui Shizhi could still think of the pain in her body: "She deserves to die!"
She gritted her teeth and said, "That damn old woman deserves no pity for her death!"
When the Shen family was at its peak, Old Madam Shen had always treated her badly, relying on her status to always make things difficult for her.
"What if I killed her?" Cui sneered, "If I hadn't killed her, she would have killed me."
"I sent the imperial physician to check it out at that time." Shen Fu lowered her eyes and said indifferently, "Madam Shen didn't die at all when the back of her head was injured."
"You dragged her outside the yard and she froze to death."
After hearing this, Cui's body trembled uncontrollably a few times.
At that time, she pushed the person away.
Old Mrs. Shen slammed heavily on the chair, and the back of her head was covered in blood.
Cui clenched her palms, then loosened them.
"So what if he's not dead?"
Even if she wasn't dead, given Mrs. Shen's condition at the time, she would have turned around and killed herself.
"I am trying to survive for myself." Cui said fiercely: "If I don't kill her, she will kill me."
"Yes, that's right." Cui said, nodding vigorously.
I don’t know whether I am saying this to myself or to others.
"What about the man who followed you out of Kyoto?" Chen Fu asked again, "I remember that he should be the housekeeper of the Shen Mansion, and his surname is Hu?"
The guards who came said that the person who escaped with Cui was Butler Hu.
: "He saved you from danger, and you killed him?"
Cui looked at her palm.
"What kind of good person do you think Butler Hu is?" Cui murmured.
What is her identity and what is Butler Hu's identity.
Those dirty hands actually dared to touch her body.
Cui was trying desperately to think of a solution along the way.
Tried to kill Butler Hu.
Fortunately, he never put up any defenses against himself.
Seeing that she was seriously injured, he even wanted to live with her.
Cui was obedient for a few days, and then she took advantage of him being drunk and smashed him to death with a wine pot without hesitation!
"Butler Hu deserves to die. How could he, a servant, dare to touch me?" Cui had already forgotten her origins.
More than a decade of wealthy life has made her gradually forget that she was just the daughter of a hunter.
Ru㫇, there was only madness left in her eyes.
Damn Mrs. Shen.
Butler Hu deserves to die too.
Her haggard face looked towards Chen Fu, jealousy screaming madly in her eyes: "You deserve to die too!"
: "It's all because of you. We should have had a good life."
"Everything was fine before you showed up." It was all because of Shen Fu.
As soon as she appeared, she took Qingru's place.
If it weren't for her, how could Qingru have died in the palace at such a young age?
"You are a vixen, a bitch, you coaxed the emperor to listen to you, you want me and the Shen family to die in your hands!"
Cui was really scared this time.
It took her so long to escape from Kyoto, but she ended up in Chen Fu's hands again.
Ruoyu has already lost the entire Shen Mansion. Will she be the next person to kill?
Cui was trembling with fear, and her venomous eyes stared at Shen Fu: "It's all because of you, why did you show up?"
If it weren't for Shen Fu, nothing that happened that day would have happened.
"Why should I show up?" Shen Fu seemed to have heard a huge joke.
She walked forward and looked carefully into Cui's eyes.
Under the dry hair, the eyes were full of viciousness.
What a vicious pair of eyes.
Shen Fu looked at those eyes and smiled: "Didn't you and Shen Qingru think of a way to let me enter the palace?"
The candlelight in the prison was dim, and it was impossible to see clearly.
But Shen Fu was dressed in gorgeous clothes, with a hairpin with golden peony on her head and a cloak embroidered with peonies.
On the wrist, the mutton-fat jade bracelet is warm and delicate.
There are good things all over the body.
She tilted her head, her eyes teasing, "Back then, you wanted me to be your daughter's substitute."
"It's like you've been pretending to be my mother and taking her place for your entire life!"
"You!" Cui felt as if someone had grabbed her throat in an instant.
Cold sweat ran down my back, my throat tightened, and I could barely utter the first sentence.
After waiting for a long time, a voice came out from the dry throat: "What on earth did you say?"
Cui's eyes looked weak, and there was deep fear in them.
When Shen Fu saw it, she knew that her guess was correct.
There is a hidden story behind what happened back then.
Chen Fu clenched her palms together and did not let go until she felt a stinging pain in her palms.
"Back then, when Shen Changshan was at the Lu Academy, he accidentally broke his leg while going down the mountain. Were you the one who carried him down the mountain?"
Shen Fu's tone was full of sarcasm.
However, Cui Shiru had already reacted: "Of course it's me."
She has been telling this lie for countless years.
As if she had really realized it, sometimes she couldn't help but think about it.
Shouldn't she have been the one who saved people at that time?
This was an opportunity given to her by God, but it was snatched away by someone else halfway.
But fortunately, the result was good.
"You're not saying that it was someone else who saved the master back then." Cui sneered.
Looking at Chen Fu: "You are still too immature, how can you understand the sincerity between me and the master?"
Sometimes, Cui herself was almost deceived by what she said.
Shen Fu was unwilling to argue with her: “You said it was you who saved the person, then tell me the details of that day, what clothes did Shen Changshan wear that day?”
"A lotus-colored long gown." Cui answered without any fear.
: "What kind of crown does he wear?"
"Emerald crown."
Over the years, this incident has become an opportunity for her to climb up.
She was so familiar with these things that no matter how Shen Fu asked, she knew them all clearly.
Even, the look he gave Chen Fu was filled with contempt.
"You are very familiar with these things." Shen Fu smiled gently at Cui: "You know all these things by heart. You even sealed the clinic that treated Shen Changshan with silver."
Shen Fuxuan wanted to send someone to inquire, but then she thought that things had gone so smoothly back then.
Someone must have arranged this behind the scenes.
If she went there rashly, she would definitely alert the enemy.
As she said this, Cui's true colors were exposed.
"You have been scheming and waiting for this opportunity to rise to the top."
"Yeah?"
Chen Fu's words were like a hammer, hitting Cui's heart again and again.
That was indeed the case back then.
After Chen Changshan found her, everything he gave her was so beautiful.
Such a gentle person, the tenderness in his eyes when he looked at her almost swallowed her up.
He gave himself a chance that he never expected.
Gold and silver jewelry, money and power, these were things she had never seen before.
At that time, she was still the daughter of a hunter.
Living at the foot of the mountain, adding a little meat to the daily meals is a big deal.
The whole family had saved only ten taels of silver over the years.
But this was not enough to resist a piece of jewelry sent by Shen Changshan.
A jade ring of the finest color would cost ten taels.
And Shen Changshan gave her a box of such things.
