PEASANT WOMAN'S DECREED LIFE AS A WIFE
Chapter 1168: Chapter 1165 InterrogationChapter 1168: Chapter 1165 Interrogation
After dinner was finished, Madam Liu finally asked, “Ah Heng, will you continue to go to Yuzhou in the future?”
She wanted to say that such a dangerous place was safer to avoid. If not for the medicine, it was uncertain whether they would have survived until now, and Madam Liu was still somewhat scared.
“We will not go anymore, we will stay in Jing City from now on,” Chu Heng looked at his elders, “Father, Mother, you just worry about staying in Jing City with peace of mind. If you need anything, tell Ah Yu, and don’t worry about our old home.”
“What do we have to worry about?” Chu Zhiwen didn’t see it as significant, wherever his son was, there he would be.
Madam Liu was also not worried about the old home’s two sons; they each had shops, and it was not a problem for them to live their small lives, as long as Ah Heng no longer went to Yuzhou.
Officials stationed outside the capital were much more dangerous than those in the capital!
...“Father, Mother, you’ve just arrived, take some time to rest now, the hour is getting late, and I have to go to the yamen,” Chu Heng stood up, walked to the door, and donned his cloak.
“Go ahead, we have nothing pressing,” they said.
Chu Heng hummed an acknowledgment, looked at Ye Muyu who then followed him out the door. Chu Heng whispered a reminder, “If the Elder Princess invites you, don’t go.”
Ye Muyu, hearing about the Elder Princess again, thought about the matter she previously discussed with Chu Heng and said quietly, “What about the Huo family’s side?”
“I have people watching the Huo family,” Chu Heng reached out and grabbed her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze before he strode off.
Huo family.
Madam Huo eventually agreed to personally meet with Luo Ting and brought Huo Kewen with her, however, Huo Kewen could only wait behind the screen.
She had drunk several cups of tea already, and it was a long wait without seeing anyone, so she called her nanny to go out and check where people were.
The time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
The nanny came back in shock, “Lady, it’s over, there’s been an accident.”
“What happened?” Madam Huo felt uneasy, clutching her handkerchief tightly as she asked.
“Young Master Luo went out riding, and his horse went mad. To avoid trampling the commonfolk, he was thrown off, and it’s said that he was seriously injured. Right now, he’s been taken back to the Luo residence, and the Luo family has already gone to the palace to ask the Emperor to send imperial physicians to treat Young Master Luo’s injuries.”
“Lady, what should we do now?”
Madam Huo felt dizzy at once, and then there was a bang from behind the screen, as Huo Kewen, dressed in men’s clothing, ran out.
“Quick, go catch the young miss and bring her back,” Madam Huo exclaimed in fright upon seeing this scene.
Hearing this, two maidservants hurriedly chased after her.
“Lady…”
“Go, go find the young miss,” Madam Huo tried to calm herself, clutching her chest as she followed.
Princess’ Mansion.
The Elder Princess sat at the head of the room, looking down indifferently at the maidservant kneeling below, “Will you confess or not?”
“Elder Princess, spare my life…”
“Useless, still so stubborn,” she said.
“Your Highness, please calm your anger, I will take her down for a strict interrogation,” a guard of the Princess’ Mansion said.
The Elder Princess glanced at him faintly, “Good.”
After the servant had been taken away, the Elder Princess got up and also personally went to listen beside the interrogation room. Nanny Song and others did not dare to stop her; with such a traitor in the Princess’ Mansion, how could the Elder Princess tolerate it.
After two days of harsh torture,
the other party spat out a name.
Nanny Song and others personally saw the Elder Princess’s face turn extremely ugly.
“It’s actually her!”
“Go, summon Madam to the mansion,” she said.
“Your Highness, shall we call Madam now?” Nanny Song tentatively asked, “It’s already late in the day…”
“Forget it, don’t summon her. Continue to pry it from her mouth, and don’t be lenient,” the Elder Princess decided.
