Duke Wang almost knelt down and kowtowed to this little ancestor.

All the thrills he had experienced in his life combined were not as shocking as this scene.

Seeing that Lord Wang’s whole body was stiff, Jiang Yingcheng thought that his discomfort had become more serious, and immediately waved her hands even harder!

While shaking, she urged her beautiful father: "Father, move too!"

【Chengcheng is running out of strength! 】

Duke Wang started coughing violently again.

When the farce finally stopped, Duke Wang was already sweating all over.

He looked at his old friend in the cell with lifeless eyes and thought, why not just forget it, he had at least risked his life for his friend.

Zhuang Xuyao ​​was stunned by the look from Duke Wang.

Although this old friend is not usually very mature and steady, at least he is not as extroverted as he is now.

The interaction between the two successfully attracted Jiang Yingcheng's attention. She stood beside her beautiful father with her head down. Her well-behaved appearance was very intimidating, but in her heart she had already started gossiping with 007.

[Wow, this grandpa is not simple either! ]

The expressions of the people present were relieved, knowing that the matter was about to come to a final conclusion.

Lu Yao and Duke Wang looked at each other and tacitly began to chat about useless nonsense, stalling for time so that the little prince would not notice anything wrong, while listening carefully to her thoughts.

Jiang Yingcheng quickly raised his head and glanced at Zhuang Xuyao, his eyes gleaming with admiration: [Grandpa Zhuang, you are a hero! ]

Upon hearing this comment, Duke Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and almost burst into tears.

Zhuang Xuyao ​​was arrested on charges of treason half a year ago. When the news first broke, almost no one in the court believed it was true.

Even his political enemies.

It can be said that Zhuang Xuyao ​​spent his entire life pleading for the people. He was honest and upright, loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Even when he occasionally met civilians who came to him for help, he would do his utmost to help them and would also donate money and money. He was a good official who was highly respected by the people.

However, even such a good official, when faced with those specious evidences, did not defend himself at all and went to prison calmly. Even when they asked him several times whether he had any difficulties, he kept silent.

Clearing Zhuang Xuyao's name has become an obsession in the hearts of these old guys.

And today is the best opportunity that Duke Wang can think of.

After a series of praises, the little prince finally got to the point.

[Woo woo woo, Grandpa Zhuang is so confused. He thought that by voluntarily going to jail he was luring the enemy with his own body, but he didn't know that all this was a trick of the treacherous ministers! ]

[Oh my, Chengcheng is so mad!] Jiang Yingcheng's face was flushed, and it was unclear whether it was because she had been exposed to the abundant sunlight at noon for too long, or because she was too angry. [The enemy really played a big game!]

She sorted out the whole thing step by step in her mind.

[First, he bribed the guard in Grandpa Zhuang's house and asked him to pretend to shoot down a passing pigeon, so that Grandpa Zhuang would "accidentally" discover the letter of treason.]

[They knew that with Grandpa Zhuang's personality, he would definitely be afraid of arousing their suspicion, and would choose to investigate secretly. After Grandpa Zhuang took care of the pigeon's injuries and released it again, all these plans really began! ]

[Grandpa Zhuang thought that he was doing all this to find out the real traitor, but he didn't expect that all this was a trap set by the treacherous officials, whose purpose was to overthrow this good official who had been a hindrance to the court many times! ]

[Grandpa Zhuang thought that after he was imprisoned, someone from the enemy country would come to rescue him or to silence him. Then he could follow the clues and find the real traitor. However, he did not expect that the enemy's evil plan would end here! ]

[Poor Grandpa Zhuang didn’t dare to slack off even a little bit because of this, and he didn’t even dare to tell his relatives and friends the truth! ]

[Damn it! That bad guy is so damned bad! ]

As the little fellow finished the whole process, Duke Wang's breathing paused for a moment.

He knew there must be something hidden in this matter, but he never expected that the truth would be like this.

He couldn't describe his feelings at the moment.

Sigh, anger, sadness... and deep heartache.

Zhuang Xuyao ​​was a few years older than him, and unlike him, he had not exercised all year round, so the weakness of a scholar was fully reflected in him.

But it is such a person who, with his frail body, provides a clear sky for the people.

How could such a person end up like this?

He should live in the sunshine, admired by his colleagues and loved by the people.

Instead of being like now, waiting for a traitor who is destined not to come, in a cell that is so dark and cramped that only a ray of light can penetrate even at noon when the sun is at its brightest.

and so……

Duke Wang's eyes suddenly became dangerous.

Who is that beast?!

【Brother Tong, Brother Tong, who is that treacherous minister? 】

Duke Wang and Jiang Yingcheng thought of this question almost at the same time.

Several people outside the cell subconsciously held their breath.

Everyone has their own plans in mind.

But no matter what scenes they imagined in their minds, in the final analysis, it was nothing more than torture for the person who designed it.

only……

[Ah! Why is Grandpa Zhuang crying? ! ]

Duke Wang was stunned and looked up suddenly.

Zhuang Xuyao ​​in the cell was just as the young prince had said in his heart, he had been crying since he had no idea.

Half of his face was covered with tears, and his eyes were blank and filled with grief.

Duke Wang understood.

This situation must have occurred because the old friend must have heard what the young prince was thinking.

He felt a sense of inappropriate joy in his heart.

You were told to be patient and to rely on your intelligence to act on your own, but in the end you discovered that all these sufferings were caused by yourself. Do you regret it?

Duke Wang sighed deeply, then raised his leg resignedly, preparing to go up to Zhuang Xuyao ​​and give him some advice.

However, before he could move, he saw out of the corner of his eye a small figure rushing out from his side, running straight to the cell door, and reaching out to grab the wooden door.

Jiang Yingcheng clutched the handkerchief in his hand and tried hard to reach into the cell. He said distressedly, "Grandpa, don't cry~"

[Chengcheng will help grandpa get revenge! ]

[Qiu Weizhi, right? Cheng Cheng will find a way to tell Father today! ]

The breathing of several people present became rapid at the same time.

Jiang Yanchuan suddenly turned around and glanced at Lu Yao.

Lu Yao immediately understood the signal in the other person's eyes and took a step forward: "Don't worry, Master Zuo. After such a long time of investigation, our Jinyiwei has already obtained most of the evidence in this case. I believe that we will be able to clear your name soon!"

His confident tone sounded like he was bragging to someone:

Leave it to me, don't worry.

The emotion on Duke Wang's face disappeared in an instant.

Did you check it?

Are you still shameless? !
