Chapter 183: Detention in the Palace
"That's right, it's not like a family doesn't belong to the same family. She is the wife of the King of Hell of Chu."
"No, King Chu of Hell kills without blinking an eye. He used to pretend to do good deeds to help the poor, but he hasn't changed at all in his heart!"
"I didn't expect that even she was like this and even killed her mother!"
The people looked at each other and said something to each other, and they kept chattering.
Lin Heng and others became angry after hearing this and wanted to argue with him.
But Su Yinyue had long been accustomed to seeing this kind of people's hearts. Although she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she didn't remember it.
After all, in life, you cannot satisfy everyone.
She glanced around the crowd coldly, and finally set her sights on Wu Shilang and said: "Since you have reported to the official, let's make it clear in front of the official."
Wu Shilang snorted: "Master Guan? You are Princess Ling. Who dares to offend Prince Ling's Mansion! Whether it is Shuntian Mansion or Dali Temple, they will cover it for you!"
Su Yinyue frowned: "Then do you want to report this matter to the emperor?"
Minister Wu said nothing.
But a gloomy and harsh voice rang out from the crowd: "Princess Ling is the royal family's first wife, and it is difficult for anyone else to try this case. It is true that only my father is the most suitable person."
The visitor was wearing a python dragon brocade robe and a fox fur cloak, showing nobility everywhere.
It is His Highness Chu Chengde.
He was punished to kneel in the Buddhist hall for many days, and his temperament became much calmer.
When Wu Shilang saw the person, he was the first to kneel down and cry out for injustice: "Your Highness, please speak a fair word for me!"
Chu Chengde helped the man up, his eyebrows were gentle, but there was a bit of cruelty hidden in his eyes.
"Of course, His Highness will not show favoritism in front of the people." Chu Chengde said.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Wu Shilang burst into tears of gratitude.
The people are often forgetful. Now that they saw Chu Chengde being so kind, they praised Chu Chengde for coming and completely forgot about the rice distribution.
Su Yinyue's eyes were deep and the weather was freezing. Chu Chengde suddenly appeared in this busy city. It was too much of a coincidence. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
Sure enough, Chu Chengde raised his voice slightly, looked at Su Yinyue and asked: "Princess Ling, do you have any objection to this case being heard by my father?"
Of course, Su Yinyue couldn't object, so she could only nod her head: "The emperor is fair and strict in judging cases, so there is no problem."
"However, my father is recuperating and cannot hear the case for the time being." Chu Chengde said, "It seems that I can only aggrieve Princess Ling. Once my father is well, I will report this matter to my father."
Su Yinyue heard some clues and her face darkened: "In that case, why do you need to let the emperor work so hard? The Prime Minister is ordered to manage the government, so why not let the Prime Minister hear the case."
"My Highness has said that Princess Ling is the royal family's wife, and only my father has the qualifications to judge you." Chu Chengde spoke gently, "Only in this way can we convince Mr. Wu, right?"
Wu Shilang had already said first: "Of course!"
After hearing this, other people nodded in agreement.
When others try this case, they will definitely look at Chu Jifeng's face and not be fair.
But after changing the emperor, things were different.
Su Yinyue didn't know what kind of medicine Chu Chengde was selling in his gourd, but then Chu Chengde said: "So, I would like to ask Princess Ling to stay in the palace for a few days, and wait until my father clears up the case before sending her back to Prince Ling's Mansion."
Su Yinyue's heart skipped a beat. It turned out that Chu Chengde had this idea and wanted to put her under house arrest in the palace!
She said calmly, "Shilang Wu's old mother is dead. An autopsy should be done immediately and the case should be investigated immediately. The case will be tried after the emperor is well. Is there any evidence?"
"Don't worry, Princess Ling. Your Highness will let you do an autopsy first, and then you can present the evidence to your father." Chu Chengde said.
Su Yinyue frowned.
Chu Chengde called out and asked the guards to come forward and "ask" Su Yinyue to follow him into the palace and stay temporarily.
"Who dares!" Sang Yu and Sang Bi stood in the front, guarding Su Yin Yue.
Chu Chengde glanced at them and sneered: "I didn't expect the servants of Prince Ling's Mansion to be so temperamental. I don't know whose influence they are relying on."
He didn't say it clearly, but how could the people on the street not hear it? He was relying on Chu Jifeng's power.
The people sympathized with Chu Chengde. He was obviously His Highness, but he was suppressed by a clan prince. Even the servants in the palace dared to disrespect him.
Sang Bi said: "Since we have to wait for the emperor to recover before reviewing the case, then there is no need to enter the palace, right? I am in Prince Ling's Mansion. Are you afraid that my princess will escape?"
"Now that Princess Ling is under suspicion, being invited to live in the palace is already a very good treatment!" Wu Shilang said angrily, "Your Highness is benevolent and charitable. If he were an ordinary citizen, he would be imprisoned!"
"Stand back." Su Yinyue ordered the two of them. There were many people on the street and they didn't know the theory clearly.
"Princess..." Sang Yu turned around in surprise.
Chu Jifeng slept for several days and did not wake up. Su Yinyue had been taking care of him. If the master woke up and could not see Su Yinyue, how should they explain?
"It's okay. Once the emperor investigates the case clearly, I will return home safely." Su Yinyue didn't care much.
Qin Mu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly grabbed Su Yinyue's hand and whispered: "Sister Su, there is something fishy about this, I'm afraid..."
"I know, don't worry." Su Yinyue patted her hand to reassure her.
No matter how courageous Chu Chengde was, he would not dare to put her under house arrest in the palace at will.
It seems that this is what Emperor Qiwu meant.
It was not convenient for Emperor Qiwu to come forward, so he asked Chu Chengde to be his minion. No wonder it didn't take long for Emperor Qiwu to let Chu Chengde get involved in government affairs.
Qin Mu gritted his teeth and could only slowly let go of his hand.
Chu Chengde personally sent Su Yin Yue into the palace, and the people on the street naturally dispersed.
Sang Yu and Sang Bi had no choice. After all, they were disrespectful to the royal family whenever they took action.
They hurried back to the house to see what was going on with Chu Jifeng. After hearing what happened just now, Nanny Ji frowned: "The princess said that the prince must sleep to recuperate his internal organs. You must not wake him up, no matter what.
It will take five or six days to wake up."
Sang Yu was so anxious that she almost burst into tears and said, "What should we do? Five or six days is too long."
In the deep courtyard of the palace, if Su Yin Yue suffered any grievances there, there was nothing they could do about it.
Mother Ji looked in the direction of the main room, pursed her lips, and said, "It's okay, we can't mess around now, we have to believe that the princess is the one."
"Yes, before leaving, the princess also said not to wake the prince." Sang Bi said, "Sang Yu and I immediately mobilized some people to guard Izumo Pavilion."
Mother Ji nodded and asked the two of them to do it immediately.
Chu Jifeng fell asleep, Su Yinyue was locked up in the palace, and Prince Ling's palace seemed to have lost its backbone, but everything was still in order.
Xu and Chu Jingxian returned to Huai River, and Chu Moyang was not the cause of the trouble, so they were naturally stable.
