After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 404 It seems like you are really itching for trouble!
In fact, he was able to hold the position of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Justice before he was even thirty years old, all thanks to the person in front of him.
A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring, and he will not sit idly by no matter what.
"You stay here for now. When the prince leaves, I will have someone change you into clean clothes."
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that this was a frame-up, but the main reason was the emperor's attitude. As he said, if the emperor wants his subjects to die, then the subjects have to die.
Just as Lord Lang expected, the prince arrived at the Ministry of Justice prison in just a moment.
"Short-lived ghost, this cell is better than the cold palace before, which one do you think is better?"
Lu Huaizhen glanced at him coldly and then closed his eyes.
"It looks like your skin is really itchy!"
The prince stood in front of the cell, looking down at Lu Huaizhen with contempt, "You dare to go against me? It must be that the lessons you learned before were not enough!"
He raised his hand, and Zhu San placed a long brown whip in his hand.
Lord Lang stood outside the cell with an anxious look on his face. He thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, and asked someone to deliver a letter to the third prince.
At this moment, Bai Youyou, who was sitting in the Queen's Palace, immediately frowned after listening to the Third Prince's narration, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a frame-up. The Emperor's action was not for Prince Xian, but for my Zhenguo Mansion!"
Lu Huaizhen was brought into the palace, and the maids and servants in his house were also detained. The matter happened too suddenly, and she only now realized that the prince had accused Lu Huaizhen of treason.
Prince Xian has a lot of dealings with them. There is no wall that is impenetrable in this world. As long as you check, you will be able to find out.
The emperor clearly did not say that Prince Xian was plotting a rebellion, but he wanted to use Prince Xian's name to completely pin the crime of treason on his grandfather's head!
"It was mainly because of the Crown Prince's instigation, saying that the Seventeenth Uncle was in collusion with the Duke of Zhenguo, otherwise——"
The Third Prince picked up the teapot and filled her cup with tea, comforting her: "This matter has not yet been concluded, and the Emperor dare not easily touch the Duke of Zhenguo. Don't worry, I have asked someone to find Lord Lang and ask him to take care of the Seventeenth Uncle and not let him suffer."
As soon as he finished speaking, the palace servant who was sent to look for Lord Lang ran in breathlessly.
"Third Prince, Lord Lang asked me to tell you that the Crown Prince has gone to the Ministry of Justice prison."
Bai Youyou stood up from the chair in an instant, and the Third Prince also stood up quickly, "Come on, I'll take you to the Ministry of Justice Prison."
As soon as the two left, the queen came out from a side hall.
"Why did you leave?"
The nanny beside her was holding two bowls of bird's nest soup. She asked in a low voice, "Madam, do you want to keep this?"
"Everyone has left, why stay?"
The queen frowned slightly.
She couldn't invite Bai Youyou to the palace even with the imperial decree, so today she came to her on her own initiative. She had been thinking about letting Bai Youyou get together with her son today.
The nanny responded respectfully and hurried to the small kitchen and poured the bird's nest soup into the slop bucket.
When she came back, the queen asked again, "Has Concubine Zhang shown any signs of waking up today?"
Mammy shook her head. "The toxicity of the Severance Powder has been half eliminated. I think he will wake up soon."
"The prince is so cruel that he cut off all ties with his bedmate. If I hadn't captured her in time, even the gods wouldn't have been able to save her!"
The queen's face was gloomy. "Send someone to the Ministry of Justice to keep an eye on it. If anything happens, report to me immediately."
"Yes."
The afterglow of the setting sun filled the sky. When Bai Youyou and the third prince arrived at the Ministry of Justice's prison, Lu Huaizhen had already been whipped countless times.
The silver brocade clothes were stained with blood, and he fell to the ground, dying.
"Brother Crown Prince, what are you doing?!"
With a shout, the prince stopped what he was doing and turned to look.
"Third brother."
Just when he was tired of beating her, he casually threw the whip to Zhu San, walked up to Bai Youyou with a smile, leaned close to her, and said, "See? This is the fate of going against me!"
Bai Youyou felt his warm breath and the faint scent of ambergris on his body, and she pursed her lips and tightened her jaw.
The Third Prince pulled Bai Youyou to protect him behind him, staring at the Crown Prince fiercely, "Crown Prince, the case has not been investigated yet, and Father has not yet convicted Uncle Seventeen, how dare you abuse private punishment?!"
"I am following my father's order to work with the Ministry of Justice to thoroughly investigate this case."
"Father never said that before..."
The crown prince had a smug smile on his face and glanced at Bai Youyou meaningfully, "Why do you think father wants to work alone with the Ministry of Justice?"
When Bai Youyou and the Third Prince heard this, their hearts sank.
As expected, the emperor wanted to put the blame on the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion!
The third prince said forcefully: "Even so, you shouldn't have used such a heavy hand and forced him to confess!"
The prince looked at him as if he were a fool, "Third brother, don't think that your mother is the queen and can interfere in this matter at will. You and the queen are doomed now, so think about how you and your son will survive without the Zhenguo Mansion."
"The overall situation is still undecided, and it is still unknown who will win. My royal brother kindly advises you to leave some room for error so that we can meet again in the future!"
"is it?"
The curve of the crown prince's mouth grew wider, "Then I will wait and see!"
After that, he walked away. When he passed by Bai Youyou, he smiled meaningfully: "Boss Bai, I wish you a prosperous business and a lot of money."
Bai Youyou gritted her teeth and stared at his back. When he disappeared from her sight, Bai Youyou quickly ran into the cell to check on Lu Huaizhen's injuries.
Lord Lang stood in the shadow of the corner and secretly watched the situation inside. Seeing that Bai Youyou did not abandon Lu Huaizhen, he felt relieved.
Bai Youyou said to the Third Prince, "Third Prince, please go get some medicine for the wound."
The cell was dirty and Lu Huaizhen was in poor health. If the wound was not treated, it would easily become infected.
When the Third Prince saw her holding Lu Huaizhen's head, he frowned slightly. He turned around and went out, ordering Zhao Zhong to get the Jincang medicine.
Bai Youyou originally wanted to apply the medicine to Lu Huaizhen herself, but Zhao Zhong cleverly snatched it away, "Men and women should not touch each other, Miss Bai, please let me do it."
Bai Youyou was worried and didn't pay attention to what he said about the inability of men and women to touch each other. After settling Lu Huaizhen, she said goodbye to the third prince and went straight back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.
The sky is dotted with a few faint stars.
In the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, the old lady and several people from the Sun family were waiting in the front hall. When they heard the maid report that Bai Youyou had returned home, their tense nerves suddenly relaxed a little.
"long!"
Seeing that Bai Youyou looked unhappy, the old lady comforted her, "Don't worry too much."
Bai Youyou said anxiously, "Grandmother, the emperor wants to use Prince Xian as an excuse to accuse our Zhenguo Mansion of treason!"
"I have already guessed this."
How could the prince accuse Prince Xian of treason for no reason? His target was not Prince Xian, but the Zhenguo Mansion.
The old lady looked tired. "We have been so cautious for so many years, but the emperor still won't let us go."
