Soon, the prefect of Liangzhou came in with his men in a menacing manner.

He just went through the motions and hastily asked the customers present a few questions. After confirming that he had died from eating, he said arbitrarily:

"If that's the case, then it must be a problem with the food and wine! Come here! Tie up Yu Wushuang and bring him back for a thorough interrogation!"

Yu Jiuer would not surrender, of course. She shouted, "Stop it! Prefect Dou, I didn't know you were so careless in handling cases. Since you've determined that it's my fault, shouldn't you test the food first?"

Dou Xiong raised his hand to signal the yamen runners not to move, and said coldly: "Inspect the wine and food? Then I will make you give up! Coroner, inspect the wine and food!"

Seeing his confident expression, Yu Jiuer sneered: Someone must have tampered with the food and wine.

However, the person who dared to kill so blatantly should not be Princess Qingyang.

Even though she is arrogant and lawless, she usually just robs men and forces them into prostitution to satisfy her lust. She would never take anyone's life!

It must be Dou Xiong who wants to get her!

But why did Dou Xiong frame her at the cost of hurting other people's lives?

Is it as simple as he just wants to help Princess Qingyang vent her anger?

As expected, after the coroner examined the vegetables, he bowed and said to Dou Xiong, "Sir, there is arsenic residue in this vegetable! Perhaps the vegetable farmer used arsenic to poison the rats, and the restaurant staff didn't wash the vegetables properly, which led to this man being poisoned to death!"

Yu Jiuer was so angry that she laughed, "What a coroner! You can imagine a drama with just this little bit of arsenic? You might as well let Prefect Dou give you the position of prefect!"

With a stern look on her face, she turned to Dou Xiong and said, "Sir, in order to clear our restaurant's name, should we ask the coroner to test all the dishes present? And also test the ones that haven't been cooked in the kitchen yet? Otherwise, how could he be the only one who died from eating, while others were fine?"

Dou Xiong did not ask the coroner to continue the poison test. Instead, he angrily said, "That's unnecessary! The person died from eating in your restaurant. It was obviously your negligence. Don't try to shirk responsibility! Come! Take Yu Wushuang back for interrogation!"

"Mr. Prefect, you are so arbitrary in making judgments. Aren't you afraid that the people will be dissatisfied? His wife is also problematic. Shouldn't you take her back for trial as well?" Yu Jiuer broke free from the restraint of the bailiff.

"No need to waste time, I can just capture you and take you away!"

A higher-ranking official can crush a person to death. Facing the biggest official in the northwest, the four guards have little influence and dare not act rashly even though they are anxious.

Just when Yu Jiuer was about to be taken away, Wei Zheng rushed in, followed by Yu Tao, who looked anxious.

"Stop! Your Excellency, isn't it inappropriate to arrest people without conducting a thorough investigation?" Wei Zheng panted as he stopped the bailiff who was escorting Yu Jiuer.

Yu Jiuer was stunned. This Wei Zheng usually wanted to kill her, but at the critical moment he could put aside their past grudges and protect her?

It really surprised her!

However, Yu Jiuer knew that if Dou Xiong was determined to take her away today, he, as a deputy general, would definitely not be able to stop him.

Dou Xiong laughed coldly, "Deputy General Wei, this is none of your business. I advise you to stay out of it. If you mess with the wrong people, even your prince can't protect you!"

Wei Zheng's feet still didn't move. He had a desperate expression on his face and said righteously, "The prince also has a share in this restaurant. Does Governor Dou still take the prince seriously? Don't forget that he is your future son-in-law!"

"Don't exaggerate here. Yu Wushuang is just a small county magistrate. Can the prince blame me? Yu Wushuang bullies the royal family and has no respect for the superiors. I have to discipline him on behalf of the emperor!"

Dou Xiong spoke in an arrogant tone, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with dealing with this subordinate who didn't take him seriously!

Wei Zheng struggled desperately and refused to give way.

Dou Xiong cursed, "Get lost! Go back and persuade your master not to mess around! Otherwise, it's hard to say whether he can walk out of Yinshan County alive!"

In the end, Dou Xiong used his power to force people to take Yu Jiuer away.

However, Dou Xiong's words caught Yu Jiuer's attention. As early as the time when the eldest prince poisoned the people of Yinshan, she suspected that Dou Xiong was a member of the eldest prince's party.

But now that he has married Prince Jing, he hasn't switched sides yet?

Involved in the fight for succession, Yu Jiuer couldn't help but feel a headache again.

One general's success is built on the bones of thousands of soldiers. How many more people have to die before this story ends?

She suddenly realized that her efforts to develop Yinshan County had infringed on the interests of some people.

They did not want Yinshan County to grow stronger and give Prince Jing the confidence to ask for credit from the Emperor and return to Beijing.

The fate of Yinshan County has long been tied to Jun Mo!

Today she was framed just for opening a restaurant. Then when she attracts investment tomorrow, will her people in Yinshan still have a way to survive?

A feeling of powerlessness lingers in my heart for a long time!

As Yu Jiuer expected, she was not brought to the court for interrogation, but was directly thrown into jail.

Not long after, footsteps were heard outside the cell.

Yu Jiuer sat on the ground hugging her knees. She looked up and saw Princess Qingyang walking towards her with a whip in her hand. She smiled at her provocatively, "Hey! Is it quiet now? Where is your arrogance?"

After the guard opened the cell door, she swung the whip in her hand and said arrogantly: "As long as you kneel down and beg for mercy, I will spare you the pain of the flesh!"

Yu Jiuer turned her head and ignored her.

She was so angry that she jumped up and pointed at Yu Jiuer and cursed: "Yu Wushuang, you are an ungrateful idiot! Do you think there is anyone who will support you? Cousin Mo is far away in Yinshan County and can't save you! This time you are dead today!"

Yu Jiuer snorted coldly: "You killed someone and framed me. Aren't you afraid that Prince Jing will settle accounts with you later?"

"It's just the life of a pariah! But that was not my idea. I just asked my uncle to help teach you a lesson. It was you who provoked someone you shouldn't have provoked. Who can you blame?"

Princess Qingyang swung the whip with a "snap" sound, and said with a ferocious look, "You can only blame yourself for your bad luck! This is the first time in my life that I have been beaten, and the first time I have suffered such a big loss, and it is all because of you! Die!"

"Snap!" As soon as she finished speaking, the whip in her hand came down hard!

Yu Jiuer raised her hand in pain, grabbed her whip, pulled it hard, and wrestled with her.

Princess Qingyang has some basic kung fu skills, and Yu Jiuer knows Taekwondo.

Before long, Taekwondo defeated the three-legged cat!

Princess Qingyang held her stomach and ordered the guards outside who she had ordered not to come in: "Tie him up for me!"

A group of guards rushed over and grabbed Yu Jiuer's hands and feet.

Princess Qingyang swung the whip and hit hard!

Yu Jiuer gritted her teeth and held back, not saying a word! She couldn't encourage her arrogance!

But the clothes on her chest were torn a little by the beating, and if she was beaten again, her breasts would be exposed.

This makes her feel very insecure!

She endured the pain and moved her shoulder to block the whip!

Fortunately, after she had vented enough, Princess Qingyang stopped, walked up to her, lifted her chin and said, "This face won't look good if it's bruised. It's still useful to keep it here!"

Then he turned around and shouted outside, "Come in!"

Then, Yu Jiuer looked up and saw five or six beautifully dressed women walking into the cell.

"Don't you claim to be aloof and chaste? These prostitutes are very good at serving people, just wait for your pleasure to reach the point of death!"

The guard let go of Yu Jiuer.

She fell to the ground, feeling confused.

How could Princess Qingyang be so outrageous?

Also, with so many prostitutes, she thinks too highly of her, doesn’t she?

Is her identity as a woman disguised as a man going to be exposed today?

God!

Did she destroy the Milky Way in her previous life?

Why do you do this to her?
