Chapter 169 I'm giving you a way out
"Don't you regret it?" Zhao Ce's expression changed instantly: "Don't you regret locking you up in the Sky Prison?"
Jiang Yao's eyes were fearless: "No regrets."
"Prince, if you want to imprison me, then do so. It's all my fault. Yao'er is doing this for me."
"Shut up."
Zhao Ce pointed at Jiang Ao with a grim expression: "I will settle your account with you later."
Jiang Yao stood in front of his finger and said calmly, "The prince wants to lock me up, right? I'll leave on my own."
It’s okay, it’s just the Sky Prison, she has been there before.
"Jiang Yao, shouldn't you explain yourself to me?" Zhao Ce called out to her, "You killed my sister, and you don't even have an explanation?"
"What explanation do you want, Prince?" Jiang Yao turned and looked at him. "Don't you know what kind of person your sister is? She has repeatedly made things difficult for me and even drugged me in the Anan tribe."
"Aren't you okay?" Zhao Ce said, "I've already apologized to you and promised you that I can give you anything you want."
"I'm fine?" Jiang Yao smiled. "Lan Ke would die without Hong Lin. Why does the prince think I'm fine?"
She was clearly smiling, but a tear ran down her cheek and fell heavily on the grass.
Although the incident with Su Qianji that night was caused by drugs, she was not like those ancient people who attached so much importance to innocence.
But it was her first time after all. She could laugh at herself and say she didn't care, but how could others say it wasn't important?
Zhao Ce was shocked, as if he had thought of something: "Could it be that you and Qian Ji..."
"So the prince still thinks the princess is innocent?"
Zhao Ce was speechless, his mood was extremely complicated.
"I killed your sister. I understand you hate me, but you want me to admit my mistake. That's impossible. Why did I kill her in broad daylight? Didn't the Crown Prince ask others? The princess provoked and threatened me. She even attacked my grandfather."
"But your grandfather is still alive, but my sister is dead."
Jiang Yao was speechless. She would not admit her mistake in this matter, but it was also true that Zhao Ce hated her. They just had different stances.
She gave Jiang Ao a faint smile: "Grandpa, don't worry about me. You have to take good care of yourself. You are my only relative in this world. No matter what happens, I don't want to see you get hurt. You must promise me that you will be fine."
Jiang Ao's eyes were hazy and he knelt on the ground crying.
Jiang Yao looked at Zhao Ce and said, "Prince, I will go to the Heavenly Prison by myself. I was the only one who killed the princess. The guests who were there during the day can all testify to this. If you are angry, please come to me. What I did has nothing to do with the Jiang family."
"It's not your turn to decide whether there is a connection or not." Zhao Ce's eyes were bloodshot. "Jiang Yao, you can't even protect yourself, and you still want to plead for the Jiang family?"
Jiang Yao didn't want to say more to him, so she turned around and left with the guards. Her long hair fluttered in the air in a resolute arc.
The news of Zhao Jie's death had already spread throughout Jincheng, and everyone in the Heavenly Prison knew about it. Yutou and the guards were waiting at the door early.
"Miss Jiang Yao."
"What do you mean by girl? She is the murderer of the princess."
The guards escorting Jiang Yao were very dissatisfied with the name "Fish Head" and argued for a few words.
Jiang Yao walked in calmly. Although she had only been here once, she was still familiar with the road.
After the cell door was locked, the guards left and all the guards in the cell gathered around.
"Miss Jiang Yao, did you really kill the princess?"
Jiang Yao sighed and nodded: "Yes, I killed her."
Yutou was so anxious that his voice broke: "No way! Miss Jiang Yao, why did you kill the princess? This is a capital crime punishable by the execution of the entire family."
"I know."
Jiang Yao was dejected. She certainly knew what the consequences would be if she killed Zhao Jie. She was clear about it when she took action yesterday, but she still couldn't control herself.
I was so angry at that time.
"Then Miss Jiang Yao, what should you do?"
"Yes, Miss Jiang Yao, even though the emperor hasn't convicted you yet, many people have seen you kill the princess, so you can't get away with it."
"Has the Emperor not yet convicted him?"
Jiang Yao was extremely surprised: "I already killed the princess, why don't you convict me immediately?"
After she finished speaking, she was speechless. It sounded like she was expecting to be convicted.
However, Zhao Huang loved Zhao Jie so much that he would definitely not let her go. How come she hasn't been convicted yet? Moreover, when Zhao Ce went to the mansion to arrest her, he didn't go into the house to arrest her. Instead, he waited for her to wake up and find herself before taking her away.
"That's unclear. When the news of the princess's death reached the palace, the emperor was furious and nearly fainted. It seems that Master Su passed away later. The emperor has not come out of his study yet, and I don't know what he is talking about with Master Su."
Did Suqianji go?
Jiang Yao widened her eyes. Is Su Qianji going to save her?
"Anyway, this matter hasn't been finalized yet. Miss Jiang Yao may not be doomed. The princess is arrogant and domineering, and she's not a good person either. Perhaps the emperor will spare Miss Jiang Yao's life for Mr. Su's sake."
"That's hard to say. She's a princess, a royal child after all."
"Anyway, we're keeping a close eye on the news outside." Yutou said to Jiang Yao, "Miss Jiang Yao, you've provided free medical treatment for all of us. Thanks to you, our family members' illnesses have been alleviated. If you need anything, just let us know. As long as we can do it, we will definitely help you."
"Thank you." Jiang Yao smiled at them, his eyes full of gratitude.
After Yutou and the guards left, Jiang Yao squatted alone in the corner, smelling the stench in the cell, but his mind was exceptionally clear.
Su Qianji should save her, but it is not so easy to let go of something like killing someone's daughter.
However, she agreed to come to the Heavenly Prison not because she hoped Su Qianji would save her.
Jiang Yao's eyes rolled and he took out a bottle from his arms.
Fortunately, she had made preparations in advance. She had been here for so long and had always wanted to leave. The pills she had just made not long ago finally came in handy.
The palace at this time.
Zhao Huang put down the white piece in anger, his face gloomy and his eyes filled with murderous intent, but he dared not say a word.
The man sitting opposite him had an indifferent expression and slowly put down the black piece with his slender hand.
"You lose."
"My daughter is dead. I don't have the heart to play chess with you here."
Zhao Huang waved his hand, and the white and black pieces fell to the ground.
Su Qianji stood up expressionlessly: "You lost the game, so you can't embarrass Jiang Yao."
Zhao Huang stared at him intently: "When did I agree to this bet?"
"I'm giving you a way out, don't be ungrateful."
Su Qianji's tone suddenly changed and became sharp: "Or do I need to use other means to make you release Jiang Yao?"
Zhao Huang sneered, "You are just an envoy. Even if your Holy Lord were here today, he wouldn't be able to say a word about how I deal with Jiang Yao."
"Ignorance." Su Qianji stood up and looked at him indifferently: "Since you won't back down, I have no choice but to use threats."
