The big guy travels through the book and becomes the female supporting role, torturing the scumbag a

Xie Ying rolled her eyes speechlessly: [With so many possibilities, how could I possibly know?]

There was a disaster somewhere, or there was trouble somewhere, anything was possible, Xie Ying was too lazy to make blind guesses.

She looked at Situ Yuan with burning eyes, grabbed his little hand and wrote on his palm: If you want to know, why not let your mother go to the palace and ask?

Situ Yuan felt a little itchy in his palm and couldn't help but look at Xie Ying's chubby little hand.

She is too young now and her hands are small, so it is actually very inconvenient for her to write.

Unfortunately, she couldn't speak yet, and he didn't dare let Xie Ying know. He could hear her thoughts, but this was the only way for now.

He said directly: "Then I will ask my mother to go to the palace to ask."

Xie Ying looked at him in surprise: [You're really not polite? ]

Situ Yuan curled his lips: That's his biological mother, why should he be polite to her?

He explained in a low voice: "Grandfather and uncle are guarding the border now. If there is news from the border, it may be related to them."

Xie Ying's heart moved when she heard this, and she couldn't help but look at him with complicated eyes.

She didn't know whether Situ Yuan had read the novel, but she remembered that in the novel, Situ Yuan's grandfather and uncle both died in battle at the border.

But that was a few years later, and now both of them are still alive and well.

Wait until she can speak again and then ask Situ Yuan.

After all, they were his grandfather and uncle, and they died fighting for their country. Now that she knew this, she had to find a way to save them.

Situ Yuan took Xie Ying directly to find the eldest princess, told her about Lai Fu seeing the Black Kirin Guard, and asked her to go to the palace to inquire about the news.

After hearing this, the eldest princess's face changed drastically and she quickly went into the palace.

Inside the palace, Emperor Taihe looked extremely ugly.

Because just now, the Black Kirin Guard reported that Luo Zheng was assassinated after finding the miracle doctor and almost died.

Moreover, the thief was lurking beside the miracle doctor in advance, which was obviously a premeditated plan!

Now he is rushing back to the capital with the miracle doctor. In order to prevent any accidents on the way, he has also asked the local garrison to escort them all the way.

Emperor Taihe had a gloomy face and clenched his fingers tightly.

Because of the palace maid's confession, he suspected Luo Zheng of harboring evil intentions, defiling the harem, colluding with spies from the enemy country, and wanting to kill the genius doctor and prevent him and Concubine Jiang from having a prince.

But the report sent by the Black Kirin Guards said that Luo Zheng was seriously injured and nearly died while protecting the genius doctor!

Obviously the palace maid lied!

A mere lowly maid actually dares to deceive the emperor!

Who gave her the courage?

And there was Xu Maochun. If it weren't for him, the palace maid wouldn't have been captured.

This person must also be investigated strictly!

Emperor Taihe said in a deep voice, "Wang Zhi, go and question those palace maids we captured a few days ago. I don't care what method you use, but this time we must pry their mouths open and make them tell the truth! Especially that palace maid from last time!"

Wang Zhi's face turned pale, and he quickly accepted the order: "I obey your command!"

He had already realized that something was wrong, and he hated the palace maid who was so bold and presumptuous as to deceive the emperor.

So after he exited, he immediately went to the secret cellar.

Inside the secret cell, the palace maid was still tied to the wooden frame, with something stuffed in her mouth to prevent her from biting her tongue to commit suicide.

These days, she only had a small amount of food and water every day, just enough to keep her from starving to death.

Because of the weakness brought by hunger, she couldn't muster up the strength to commit suicide even if she wanted to.

When she saw Wang Zhi, the remaining color on her already pale face instantly faded away, and her lifeless eyes instantly widened, obviously she was terrified to the extreme.

Wang Zhi stepped up to her, a faint smile on his lips, and looked at the trembling palace maid with cold eyes: "You are so bold, you dare to deceive the emperor. Do you know how serious this crime is?"

When the palace maid heard this, she trembled even more violently, and a small stream of heat surged from her body.

She was frightened to death.

Wang Zhi was so shocked that he stepped back repeatedly, covering his nose in disgust. He looked at her more and more as if he was looking at a dead person: "This is your last chance. If you don't tell the truth, you will end up living a life worse than death."
