Contract Prince

Chapter 108 Calm down

Lu Zhong looked extremely embarrassed, but no one present sympathized with him.Lu Lin's face was gray, and he was silent, only sighed.

Xiao Cong, on the other hand, looked like he was watching the show. Lu Zhong had caused damage to his reputation. If Qin She hadn't stopped him, Xiao Cong would have cut him into a stick.

"You murdered Her Royal Highness, and you still have the face to cry for mercy here?" Xiao Cong snorted, "It's better to get ready so that you can report to the Palace of the King of Hell."

"Master of Dali Temple, what are you still doing? The evidence is convincing, why don't you convict Lu Zhong quickly?" Xiao Cong casually cast a glance at the other party.

The Minister of Dali Temple was originally in charge of the case of Lu Zhong's offense against Princess Zhao, but he did not expect to find out another shocking case from Lu Zhong. He was very shocked. After calming down, he said: "Lu Zhong deliberately murdered the princess. Princess, according to the law, you should be punished for the crime! Temporarily put in prison, and will make a decision after reporting to His Majesty!"

When Lu Zhong heard this, his eyes went dark, and he collapsed directly to the ground.

The news of Lu Zhong's murder of Xiao Muxue quickly reached Xiao Guan's ears. After hearing this, the emperor was very angry.Xiao Guan immediately issued an order to kill Lu Zhong three days later, and no one was allowed to visit him during this period.

The emperor usually liked Lu Zhong because of Lu Lin's face.But this time, he will never favor Lu Zhong again.Compared with his beloved daughter, he is not even a hair.

If Lu Zhong committed other crimes, Lu Lin could shamelessly ask the emperor.However, what his son committed was a heinous crime, and Ning Guogong no longer had the face to beg the emperor for mercy.The matter of Lu Zhong brought a heavy blow to Lu Lin. The knowledgeable and wise Lord Ning Guo seemed to have turned into a dying old man in an instant.Lu Lin was depressed, and stayed behind closed doors all day long.

Gu Yunjing asked Xiao Guan to visit Lu Zhong in prison, because she was the hero who solved the assassin case, so Xiao Guan agreed without thinking too much.

Lu Zhong's crimes are much more serious than Tao Ce's, and now he has been locked in a cell alone, which is called an absolute prison.A prisoner in an absolute prison needs to meet two conditions.One, it must be a vicious person waiting to die, and the other, it must be a high-ranking person.

The dark and gloomy corners are devouring the light bit by bit, and a long and lonely road seems to have no end.The faint light could only illuminate a small part of the road. Gu Yunjing dismissed the jailer, held up the lamp, and walked for a long time, and finally came to the prison where Lu Zhong was.

Lu Zhong looked frighteningly haggard, his hair was disheveled, and his hands were tied with heavy shackles.The clothes on his body have been gnawed by mice several times.In just a day or two, Lu Zhong was already tortured beyond recognition.

What tortured him was not the harsh conditions of the prison, but the fear of death.Born in a wealthy and gentle village, who is willing to easily give up life and give up this glory and wealth?

When Lu Zhong heard the footsteps of someone coming, he was ecstatic.Quickly brushing away the messy hair on his forehead that had blocked his eyes, seeing that it was Gu Yunjing, the fiery light in his eyes faded instantly.

Lu Zhonghua turned into a irritated mad dog with scarlet eyes. He slammed the heavy shackles on the iron fence and cursed desperately: "Gu Yunjing, you are a godsend! It is thanks to you! Even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go!"

Gu Yunjing said expressionlessly: "You are dying, and you still don't know how to repent? You pay for your life, let alone the princess you want to kill."

Lu Zhongbai said: "Fart, I want to kill you, not Her Royal Highness at all."

Gu Yunjing didn't want to quarrel with Lu Zhong, she said slowly: "I came today to ask you something, what is the relationship between you and Concubine Qu?"

Hearing Qu Feiqing's name, Lu Zhong's face sank again, and after a while, he laughed loudly and said: "Gu Yunjing, I have a sworn feud with you, do you think I will tell you?"

Gu Yunjing said calmly: "Lu Zhong, do you think you're done after you die? Don't forget, you still have your parents. Your Majesty just demoted Ning Guogong's official position, and did not pursue your parents too much. Are you really going to drive them to a dead end?"

Lu Zhong loosened his grip on the iron fence, stared at the son-in-law, and said in a daze, "What do you mean by that?"

Gu Yunjing was too lazy to show off, she said: "You gave Tao Ce medicine at the Guining Banquet. The name of this medicine is X. Xin. Dong, and it is the unique secret medicine of Qu Feiqing, the owner of Wanchun Building. She is willing to give this medicine to you. You, there must be some kind of intimate relationship between you, or some special deal."

"I went to Wanchunlou to investigate a few times and came into contact with Concubine Qu. From my observation, she is not a simple character, and Wanchunlou is not just an ordinary romantic place." Gu Yunjing looked dignified, "If Duke Ning gets too close to Concubine Qu, I'm afraid he will get into trouble sooner or later."

Of course Lu Zhong knew that Concubine Qu was definitely not a good person, and he knew even more about his father's disposition. Lu Lin would never be in cahoots with Concubine Qu.Lu Zhong sternly said: "Don't scare me here! Concubine Qu is scary, but she is not as scary as you! My father is a man of glory, so it is impossible for him to have any relationship with Concubine Qu."

Gu Yunjing raised her eyebrows and smiled: "That's the best, don't let anything fall into Qu Feiqing's hands, teach her to control it."

Lv Zhong's heart trembled, thinking back then that Concubine Qu planned to frame him for the 100 million taels of silver bill.With the mind of this vicious woman, maybe she will really use despicable means to harm her father.

Lu Zhong weighed it up secretly, looked at Gu Yunjing, and asked, "Do you really want to know what happened between me and Concubine Qu? As long as you let me meet my father, I will tell you."

Of course, he would not tell Gu Yunjing about the million-dollar silver note, which involved not only his own life or death.Misappropriating treasury money privately is a very bad crime, and the crime should implicate the entire family!

Lu Zhong wanted to meet Lu Lin to discuss countermeasures with his father.Although the emperor has made a decree, it is human effort. Lu Zhong feels that as long as he is not dead, he has the hope of being released from prison.

Gu Yunjing shook his head: "Impossible. Ning Guogong is too smart. To be honest, even I am afraid of him. Once he meets you, he will definitely have the idea of ​​saving you again. I'm afraid there will be another wave."

Gu Yunjing said lightly: "If you want to tell me about Concubine Qu, just tell me. If you don't want to tell me, don't tell me. I will find out sooner or later. Lu Zhong, after all the bad things, there is someone Retribution! Skynet is full of omissions."

In Gu Yunjing's hand, there is a statement of indictment drawn by Lu Zhong himself, which records various crimes of Lu Zhong, one of which is to frame Tao Ce.In the absolute prison, except for Gu Yunjing, no one else could enter it.Therefore, it is impossible for others to find out the trickiness of the statement of guilt, and they all think that this is really the crime that Lu Zhong himself admitted.

Gu Yunjing presented the indictment to Xiao Guan for review, and since Lu Zhong had already confessed to the crime of framing Tao Ce, there was no reason for Tao Ce to continue to be imprisoned.Tao Ce was released at the emperor's order.

The cheerful Mr. Tao had been a caged bird for a whole month, and he was almost suffocated to death.Now that Tao Ce is free again, let alone how excited he is, jumping up and down, he almost bought a loudspeaker and shouted all over the street.

Gu Yunjing smiled and said: "One month of prison life can't make you restrain your temper. I found that no matter what happens, you always seem to be so happy."

"I am me, unique, just be yourself as much as you want, why restrain your temper?" Tao Ce chuckled, "Let's go, let's go, I'm released from prison today, we have to celebrate, don't get drunk and don't return! Wan Chun The ladies and sisters in Lou must miss me to death."

After hearing the three familiar names of Wanchunlou, Gu Yunjing asked: "You used to go to Wanchunlou often, so do you know the details of Concubine Quqing, Boss Qu?"

"Where do you live? Is there a marriage? Haha." Tao Ce answered without thinking, then poked Gu Yunjing's arm with his elbow, and smiled sideways, "Tsk tsk, Yunjing, I used to I thought you were an upright gentleman, Liu Xiahui among men, but I didn't expect you to have Qu Feiqing's idea."

"You're already married, aren't you afraid of that fierce iceberg at home?"

Gu Yunjing stopped and said with great interest, "Why are you afraid?"

"Because she is the high and mighty princess, the one with a strong aura. Every time I see your Bingshan, I feel cold all over and feel daunted. You are not afraid of her. Could it be that she is afraid of you?"

Gu Yunjing rubbed his chin and smiled: "Tao Ce, I have to correct two of your mistakes. First, Xueer is not an iceberg, she also has a very gentle side. Second, why am I afraid of her? I'm clearly pampering her."

Tao Ce was taken aback, and smiled "badly": "Yo yo, I haven't seen you in a month, and you have grown a lot. It seems that you have subdued the iceberg. Great, great. Thanks to my brother, I am still worried. Will you be oppressed by feminism?"

Gu Yunjing said seriously: "I repeat, it's not an iceberg!"

Tao Ce said: "Come on, you're still competing with me. Well, it's not an iceberg, it's a honeypot, just for you to talk sweet words. By the way, how did you subdue her? I'm super curious."

Gu Yunjing said: "If you really want to know, you should ask Her Royal Highness the Princess. To be precise, I didn't subdue her, but I was subdued by her first."

"Wow! So it was your boy Chun who started his heart first." Tao Ce said in surprise, playing with the hair on his temples, and then said puzzled, "No, I remember that the empress betrothed Her Royal Highness to the princess. You, you are unwilling to live or die. How come you fell in love with it all at once."

Xiao Muxue's all-powerful appearance appeared in front of her eyes, Gu Yunjing said softly, "It's probably because Her Royal Highness is too charming."

Tao Ce couldn't deny it: "Forgive me for not appreciating the charm of Her Royal Highness, but I think Boss Qu is more attractive. Enchanting and charming, he is simply a stunner in the world."

"Don't worry about it, we will have a lot of dealings with her in the future." Gu Yunjing's face was slightly condensed, "A gorgeous snake will reveal its original temperament after its skin is peeled off."
