Zhong Mingwei watched the undisguised anger on Zhong Zhiheng's face after he opened the letter, and he swallowed hard. Then he turned his gaze to Concubine Hui, only to see that Concubine Hui was drooping, obviously just now she looked like a proud and furious fighting cock. But at this moment, Zhong Mingwei clenched his fists like a dying lamb. On the other hand, he looked away again.
"Your Highness, please sit down too," Zhao Ruhai said while moving another embroidered pier to Zhong Mingwei's back. "I heard that your leg disease has recurred, so you should not stand for a long time."
"Thank you, father-in-law." Zhong Mingwei took a deep breath and let it out slowly, and then met Zhao Ruhai's earnest gaze. sat down.
"Did you write this?" Zhong Zhiheng handed the letter to Concubine Hui. A pair of angry eyes looked straight at Concubine Hui, and asked in a deep voice.
"How could the concubine... write a letter to a mere guard?" Concubine Hui asked with averted eyes. On one side, he fell to his knees again with a "plop". Then wept again. "Someone must be jealous of the concubine's favor, so they want to frame the concubine! The death of the fourth prince. How can it have anything to do with the concubine? The concubine and the fourth prince have never met each other a few times, so how could they treat the concubine?" Where is the prince going to attack? Long live Lord Mingjian!"
"You haven't met the fourth prince a few times. But you have met the fourth prince's mother a lot, right?" Zhong Zhiheng said coldly, "You have no grievances with the fourth prince, but you have no grievances with the fourth prince's mother. The hatred is as deep as the sea. So she killed your son, so you have to kill her son to avenge your revenge, right?!"
"Long live! The concubine dare not! The concubine doesn't have such vicious thoughts!" Concubine Hui was so frightened that she didn't dare to cry. It was the first time Zhong Zhiheng showed such a furious expression in front of her. She shrank back and said incessantly, "Long live Lord, although the little prince of my concubine was killed by the imperial concubine, but you have already avenged my concubine, and the imperial concubine died long ago. The Lord is so grateful, why would he kill the Fourth Prince to vent his anger? Although the Fourth Prince is the son of the imperial concubine, he is the most beloved prince of the Long Live Lord. The prince did it! Long live Lord, you must trust the concubine! You can’t just assume that the concubine hired a murderer to kill the concubine just because of such a piece of waste paper and two lines of ink. Lord, you must not fall into the trap of others!"
Zhong Zhiheng looked at Concubine Hui coldly. Concubine Hui was naked today, she hadn't had time to wash up and put on makeup, and she was crying bitterly. At this time, her face was haggard, her eyes were slightly blood red, and she looked very charming. Zhong Zhiheng saw Looking at her face, Xu Siyao suddenly remembered for some reason. I remembered that when Zhong Mingwei was born, Xu Siyao also looked haggard and weak. She was like a precarious and light kite, as if the string would break at any moment. …
Zhong Zhiheng took a deep breath, but in the end he took his eyes back from that pale and haggard face, and looked at Jiang Bairen again, and said in a deep voice: "What else do you want to say, just hold your breath." It's all over."
"Yes, my subordinate obeyed." Jiang Bairen was secretly pleased, knowing that Zhong Zhiheng had not been deceived by Concubine Hui, so he continued with the report just now, "The subordinates found letters and bank notes in Guard Fang's room, confirming that Guard Fang I do have contacts with Concubine Hui, and my subordinates found a packed luggage in the room of the palace lady named Qing Xing, and inside the luggage was a gold-encrusted ruby ring."
