Chapter 16 Transgression
Song Chuchu's face was pale and she looked sick. Song Wu could tell at a glance that she had put on powder and there was a faint scent of ylang-ylang on her body after bathing.
"Master Zheng..." Song Chuchu held up the handkerchief, tears rolling down her red eyes, "Ask whatever you want to ask. As long as it can make me feel better, I can answer whatever you want."
The little face looked aggrieved, and even the officials from the yamen were worried.
Song Wu had had enough of her pretending to be weak in his previous life, and said coldly, "Don't tell me what the answer is that I want. Today's matter has nothing to do with me. You went to the government jail early this morning, wasn't it to kill Haiyue? Aren't you afraid that she would reveal the fact that you asked her to ask Li Dagui to do something bad to me and then kill me?!"
"Sister said..." She choked and couldn't wipe away her tears, "That's it! As long as it can make sister feel better, Chuchu doesn't care... It's just Haiyue, poor Haiyue..."
She leaned on Li's shoulder and sobbed.
"Stop talking!" Zheng Lei was furious. "You can't get away with pretending to be pitiful in this case!"
Song Chuchu stopped crying, bit her lip and looked at Zheng Lei.
Zheng Lei said seriously, "Today, Miss Song arrived at the prison at 9:00 PM and left at 2:45 PM, right?"
Song Chuchu nodded.
He looked at her inquiringly: "But before three quarters past nine, the jailer found Haiyue dead, and what Miss Song said to Haiyue..."
Song Chuchu's heart instantly tightened. Could it be that her words of coercion against Haiyue were heard by others?
still is……
She was completely shaky. "Could it be wrong for me to tell Haiyue that I would take good care of her family while she was in prison? She treated me wholeheartedly, and I couldn't bear to see her wronged and her family left unattended. Is that not okay?"
Zheng Lei had been a prison warden for seven or eight years and had heard this sentence countless times in prison. How could he not understand the true threat it contained?
He had originally intended to lie, but he didn't expect Miss Song Er to say it so without any scruples, which made him unsure.
And I heard that the second young lady of the Song family was only found this year, and had been growing up in a farm family before... From the looks of it, she really doesn't seem to know the ins and outs of the capital.
Zheng Lei frowned, his expression stern. "Then how do you explain why Haiyue kept crying out for justice and had a strong will to live before meeting you, but then committed suicide right after meeting you? This doesn't make sense."
When Song Chuchu heard Zheng Lei ask this, she felt relieved. It seemed that she had fooled the previous question correctly!
Lord Zheng didn't know that she was threatening Haiyue, he was just trying to trick her.
"My Lord, I am deeply saddened by Haiyue's death..." She glanced at the piece of clothing at the door: "Please don't mention it in front of me again. She paid a huge price to prevent me from being caught in the whirlpool of public opinion, okay..."
She saw the person standing at the door when she came to the front yard from Xuexiangju.
As long as he showed up and said a few words, not only Zheng Lei, but even the prefect of the capital would have to obey him.
Song Wu knew of Song Chuchu's trick of playing weak. She sneered and said, "It seems that the Second Miss still refuses to admit it! Then I can only ask Lord Zheng to lead people to investigate and find out the truth clearly!"
Zheng Lei put his hands on his hips and nodded, agreeing with Song Wu: "Of course we have to investigate. There are still many suspicious points in this case..."
Seeing that the person at the door hadn't come in, Song Chuchu became anxious. She was about to cry and seemed even more helpless: "Sir, please let the deceased rest in peace... My sister and I are both going to get married, why should our reputation be dragged down by this matter..."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Wu and Zheng Lei looked at Song Chuchu with a hint of deep meaning in their eyes.
"Don't!" Song Wu waved his hands quickly, "I have a very good reputation, it's you who have a bad reputation..."
But she wasn't finished yet.
"Master Zheng!" The man standing at the door finally walked in, holding a brocade robe. "You haven't even investigated this matter thoroughly yet, and you're already coming to the Earl's Mansion to question the Second Young Lady. I'm afraid that's not appropriate, is it?"
Song Wu wanted to curse in her heart, so she asked why Song Chuchu was so kind to mention her reputation in the end. It turned out that it was Ji Bozhou, the unfaithful man, who was out there!
"Second Brother Ji!" Song Chusi's eyes lit up.
Zheng Lei quickly saluted Ji Bozhou, and Song Ming and Li also greeted him respectively.
"Prince!" Song Chuchu bowed weakly towards Ji Bozhou.
Ji Bozhou had already heard all of this at the door. He glanced at Song Wu and said to Zheng Lei, "Since the murderer has committed suicide, it means he has realized the mistake of killing people. Why does Lord Zheng still insist on holding on to this matter?"
The Yongping Marquis's Mansion is high and powerful, and the man in front of him is the Queen's younger brother and the current uncle of the emperor.
When Zheng Lei saw Ji Bozhou, he sighed inwardly! How could he, a minor official of the ninth rank of the prison department, possibly be able to outmaneuver him?
He nodded repeatedly, asked how the Marquis was, and soon left with a few officials.
After all, if he offends this person, I’m afraid that his superiors will not forgive him!
Song Wu stared at Ji Bozhou coldly. Why did he come at this time instead of earlier or later?
Ji Bozhou was about to walk towards Song Wu when Song Chuchu stepped forward and grabbed the corner of his clothes.
"Prince." Her voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, as if she had just suffered a great injustice. "Chu Chu thanks Prince for his concern and care."
She bowed delicately, but as soon as she stood up, she felt dizzy and suddenly everything went black.
Just like that, she fell into Ji Bozhou's arms as she wished.
Song Wu stood there jokingly, sneered, and he and Sang Luo supported Nanny Yu and returned to Wutong Garden.
Looking at Song Wu's back, Ji Bozhou felt annoyed.
Originally, he came here today because he had heard the rumors about Song Wu and Song Chuchu in the city, and wanted Song Wu to find a way to debunk those rumors.
After all, being raped and then killed is not a glorious thing. If she really enters the Marquis's Mansion, other noble families will point fingers at the Marquis' Mansion behind their backs.
But Song Wu's reaction showed that he was still angry because she pushed Song Chuchu and he did not help her.
That's really narrow-minded!
Ji Bozhou carried Song Chuchu to Xuexiangju. When he raised his hand, he found that the gauze on Song Chuchu's head was still oozing blood. It was only blocked by her hair that it was not visible.
Song Chusi followed beside her and said anxiously, "You were there when the eldest sister pushed the second sister. I didn't expect that she would hold a grudge against me because of this. Not only did she make the second sister sick today, but she also just..."
Ji Bozhou's face was filled with anger: "No need to say more, I know everything!"
When they arrived at Xuexiangju, Ji Bozhou carried Song Chuchu into the boudoir. He stood up and wanted to leave, but Song Chuchu held his hand tightly.
She closed her eyes and kept murmuring, "Don't abandon me... I'll give the prince to my sister, please don't abandon me..."
After hearing this, Ji Bozhou couldn't leave anymore and could only stay with Song Chusi.
Ji Bozhou then discovered the palm print on Song Chusi's face, "Your face..."
Song Chusi immediately covered his mouth with his hands, feeling a little embarrassed. "Song Wu hit me... If she wasn't my sister, I would have fought back!"
Ji Bozhou sighed, "It's hard for you to still spoil her like this!"
"Second Brother Ji!" Song Chusi noticed that Ji Bozhou's attitude towards Song Wu had changed, so he asked cautiously, "Do you really like my eldest sister? Or is it... because of that engagement?"
He paused. "Logically speaking, Second Sister is the bloodline of our Song family. The one you're engaged to... should be Second Sister! You've seen how Eldest Sister has treated Second Sister since she came back. Do you think Eldest Sister, with her current personality, can really be a good wife for the Crown Prince?"
