The prince stepped on me to get to the top, I angrily flirted with the enemy's hostage

Su Rou asked, "What for? Did the prince personally send someone to stop them?"

The guard bowed respectfully, "Miss Su, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to see you."

Su Rou turned around and took Gong Yu's arm, "I'm busy."

She and Gong Yu walked around them and left as if no one was around.

Su Rou looked at the herring thrown on the carriage with joy. She could catch it herself, but it would be better to have someone do it for her.

"You caught quite a few, all quite fat."

The servant standing next to her said, "It's all His Royal Highness Prince Yu who is trying to make you happy. If you want to thank someone, you should thank Prince Yu."

Su Rou looked at Gong Yu, who opened his folding fan in a somewhat artificial manner.

Su Rou said, "Thank you, but I just caught one, so I don't want yours."

Gong Yu was dissatisfied and grabbed Su Rou's wrist, asking her, "Why?"

As the saying goes, one should be grateful for what one has received, so she didn't dare to accept Gong Yu's things rashly.

This was also the reason why she sent the badge back in such a hurry.

Su Rou said, "No means no, you don't want anything."

There's no need to ask so many whys. Gong Yu has hit a wall with her so many times, so he should know when to back off, right?

Gong Yu didn't say anything, just stood there looking at her for a while, then quickly looked away.

"If you don't want it, then don't have it." Why did Su Rou see a hint of loneliness in Gong Yu's expression?

Su Rou said nothing and climbed onto the carriage. "I'm here today, so I don't think I'm disobeying the Emperor. Can we go back now?"

Gong Yu said, "Okay."

On the way back, Su Rou placed the fish she had caught next to her.

Gong Yu looked at her and never said anything.

That night, something happened in the capital.

The youngest daughter of Xiguanghou Mansion had not returned yet, so the people from Xiguanghou Mansion went to the place where everyone was having fun today.

The youngest daughter of the Marquis of Xiguang was murdered and her body was hung on the boat that was sailing on the lake today. The location was quite conspicuous, so anyone passing by could see it immediately.

Today, someone saw Su Rou arguing with the youngest daughter of Xiguang Marquis on the shore and reported it to the Dali Temple.

A large number of officers and soldiers broke into the general's mansion, and Su Rou was taken out directly from the yard.

Seeing that they had no intention of hurting her, Su Rou cooperated. "Shao Qing, you actually came here to arrest me? What heinous crime have I committed?"

Su Wan, with disheveled hair and wearing a robe, stood in front of Su Rou with a machete in his hand.

The Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "General Su, we will act impartially. Miss Su must go back with us."

The machete in Su Wan's hand made a long chiming sound. "Let's see who dares to do that today. My Arou has always been weak. The death of the girl from the Xiguang Marquis family had nothing to do with her. Besides, there are so many people here today. My Arou came back a long time ago. How could she go back and kill someone?!"

The Dali Temple's Shaoqing stared at Su Rou and said, "We are only investigating the case. General Su, please hand her over."

Su Wan raised his machete and said, "If you don't hand it over, I'll see who rushes up to me today!"

The Shaoqing of the Dali Temple raised his hand slightly, signaling the person behind him to come forward.

In terms of fighting strength, the people from the Dali Temple were still a little lacking. With a flash of their swords, the person who rushed up was quickly cut into two pieces.

Large pools of blood were spread across the floor of the general's mansion courtyard.

Su Rou frowned and grabbed Su Wan's arm. "Father, I haven't done this, but I might as well go with them. It's better to be humble than to be slanted. After all, the Dali Temple is very good at investigating cases."

Su Wan's voice softened. "Ah Rou, if you go there, what if someone bullies you? Daddy is worried. Dali Temple is not a place for people to stay."

Su Rou shook her head, "It's okay... Besides, if you kill innocent people like this, what will you do if the emperor asks you to punish him?"

The Dali Temple's Shaoqing said, "Miss Su believes in us. We will definitely not let her suffer any injustice. General Su can rest assured."

The voice of the Dali Temple Shaoqing was a little trembling.

In front of their father's chopping, they were like ants.

"Is it okay for me to bring a weapon to Arou? If she gets bullied, at least she has something to defend herself."

The Junior Secretary of the Dali Temple shook his head, "No, this is the rule. General Su, please don't make it difficult for me."

Su Rou shook her head, telling her father not to worry.

Su Wan's voice choked with sobs, "Arou, go with them. Dad will go to the Dali Temple to visit you early tomorrow morning."

Su Rou was not detained by the people from the Dali Temple, and a clean carriage was prepared at the door.

Su Rou went in, and the next second, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple followed and sat in.

In the darkness, the two people looked at each other.

Su Rou stared at the Dali Temple's Shaoqing, "Are you afraid that I'll run away?"

The Dali Temple official said, "That's natural."

The reason why Su Rou followed them here was to verify something.

Jiang was assassinated in the mansion before. If that was a coincidence, then what about this time?

She had only exchanged a few words with the youngest daughter of the Marquis of Xiguang on the shore today. Someone had deliberately made a fuss about what happened today, and perhaps they were in cahoots with the people who assassinated Jiang.

Su Rou could clearly feel that they were coming for her.

When they arrived at the Dali Temple, Su Rou was asked to get off the car.

The Dali Temple's Shaoqing said, "Your status is special, and the Dali Temple has no intention of offending you. The Emperor has ordered our people to take good care of you. You are the only prisoner in the cage where you are imprisoned, and no one else can touch you."

Su Rou nodded, "Thank you for your help."

When Su Rou was brought in, the light in the dungeon was very dim, but she could see that there were four or five people imprisoned together in those cages.

Their gazes fell on him, and their calm eyes contained terrible murderous intent.

There was no one else in Su Rou's cage, and it seemed that it was prepared in advance by the people from Dali Temple.

The Dali Temple cannot convict her without solid evidence, so the General's Mansion will not be in danger for the time being.

Even if the emperor wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to attack the general's mansion, he had to have a suitable reason.

The jailer who brought her in opened the door of the cage and said, "Come in, young lady."

Su Rou took a step forward. The place had been in disrepair for a long time and had a musty smell and a strong scent of weeds.

The jailer said, "If you need anything, just call me. I'm right here."

Su Rou nodded and watched the jailer getting farther and farther away. The prisoners on her left and right could no longer hold back.

He came to Su Rou anxiously.

Their hands reached through the gap in the fence, as if trying to touch her.

Su Rou is standing right in the middle now, and no matter how hard they try to squeeze in, they can't reach her.

"Girl, girl."

Su Rou looked over and found that the person calling her was an elderly woman.

Su Rou walked over and asked, "What are you doing?"

The old woman forced a smile on her wrinkled face, and all the wrinkles on her face piled up together.

In addition to the dim light, Su Rou found the old woman's smile creepy.

"What have you done wrong? Look at your beautiful face and hands. You must be a rich lady, right? Why are you imprisoned here? The people here are even respectful to you."

Su Rou could tell that the old woman was intentionally trying to find out about her background.

Su Rou frowned, and I felt pity for her. "As for me... my father remarried and married a vicious stepmother. She didn't give me any food and looked down on me every day. In a fit of rage, I stabbed her to death, and that's why I was locked up here."

The Dali Temple tries cases in the entire capital. It seems that all the evil people in the capital should be locked up here.

The old woman reached out her hand and gently held Su Rou's hand, "What a poor child..."

In an instant, the old woman grabbed Su Rou's wrist tightly and pulled it hard, causing Su Rou's head to hit the fence directly.
