Chapter 205
Seeing the terrified man kneeling on the ground, everyone was startled. Song Baichuan was even more serious about this. He had already guessed what Jun Tianlin would do.

"I ask you, what is your relationship with Song Baozhu?"

Jun Yelan asked with a cold face, only to see the man tremblingly leaning over and kowtow, "My lord, I was selected as a scholar last year, and I was lucky to meet Miss Songfu. Later, we fell in love with each other, and we have... have skin dear."

As he spoke, Xiucai took out a bellyband from his bosom, with the word 'bead' embroidered on it, "This is the token she left for me after that night."

Song Baochai was furious when she heard the words, and snapped: "Nonsense! With my sister's background, how could she have a crush on you!"

"In my opinion, either you lied to her, or you are framing her to deliberately ruin her reputation."

Hearing her words, the scholar immediately panicked, "Your Majesty, you are wronged, everything the little one said is true."

"After I had a physical relationship with Pearl, I proposed to marry her, but she asked me to wait. Unexpectedly, during this period, she happened to meet the Prince Regent's son, and she has never forgotten him since then."

"Later she found out that she was pregnant with my flesh and blood, and I repeatedly begged her to marry me, but she not only refused, but also dreamed all day long, wanting to marry into the Prince Regent's Palace."

Speaking of this, the scholar bowed to Jun Yelan and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, the little one didn't do it on purpose. The little one just saw that she had been indulging in fantasies, so he persuaded her to recognize the facts. Unexpectedly..."

"Zhu'er is stubborn by nature. After listening to my persuasion, she was so angry that she ran and threw herself into the river. The little one... the little one is also very regretful."

What the scholar said was logical and well-founded, and his tearful narration seemed to make the whole thing clear.

Song Baoling knew he was lying, but right now she had no evidence to prove it, let alone...

If she forcibly intervenes, I'm afraid Jun Tianlin will be disturbed, and he will definitely not let the Song Mansion go.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the veteran also brought the onlookers who witnessed Song Baozhu's throwing into the river today."

The other people kneeling on the ground were witnesses. After questioning Jun Yelan, all he got was the same message. Song Baozhu threw himself into the river, not being pushed down the moat.

"At present, there are all witnesses and material evidence, and the matter is clear. Song Baozhu threw himself into the river and died, and Jun Yinlu has nothing to do with her. Let's let this matter go."

As the Son of Heaven, Jun Yelan had already determined the truth, but Song Baochai still wanted to hold on to it, saying, "My lord, there are still doubts about this matter, and this concubine wants to..."

Seeing that Jun Yelan's face became ugly, Song Baoling immediately helped her say something nice: "My Majesty, Concubine Song cares about her sister's love, so she listened to the rumors outside because of her impatience."

"Being shocked by the death of the eldest sister, the empress must be a little confused, and it is inevitable that she will say the wrong thing. I hope the Holy Majesty will not blame me."

Song Baochai's head was hot just now, and he wanted to take advantage of Jun Tianlin's hands. Hearing Song Baoling's words at this time, he turned his head to look at Jun Yelan, and instantly realized it.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. My sister passed away at such a young age. The concubine was really sad, so I just kept talking and hoped that my Majesty would appease her anger."

Glancing at the person kneeling in front of him, Jun Yelan frowned displeasedly, "Shocked, as a concubine, she speaks nonsense in front of me, questioning my decision."

"Concubine Song, it's time to restrain your temper. If there is another time, I will never tolerate it."

Song Baochai trembled in fright, and hastily lowered her head to admit her mistake: "Yes, this concubine knows my mistake, and this concubine promises that she will never make this mistake again in the future."

Jun Yelan snorted coldly, and said again: "Also, you should apologize to Uncle Huang. If Uncle Huang hadn't sent someone to investigate this matter, I'm afraid the truth wouldn't have come to light."

Hearing this, even though Song Baochai was reluctant, she got up and apologized to Jun Tianlin: "My lord, just now I misunderstood you and Mr. Jun in a hurry, I apologize to you, and I hope my lord will not take this matter to heart .”

"Your Majesty, you are serious." Jun Tianlin nodded slightly at her, it was obvious that he was angry.

Coming out of the palace, Song Baoling stood in place and watched Jun Tianlin and his son leave. Looking at the carriage going away, she turned her head and asked Song Baichuan: "Father, is this the way to go?"

Song Baichuan didn't answer, but asked instead: "Are you sure you were the one killed by Jun Tianlin?"

"Not sure."

"Since there is no evidence, what else can we do, let's do it for the time being."

Song Baoling stopped talking, watched his father get into the carriage, then turned to look at Jun Tingsheng and sighed, "You go back, I guess the Song residence will be noisy for a while, I'll go find you when I'm done."

Jun Tingsheng subconsciously raised his hand to touch her head, but just as he was in mid-air, he suddenly remembered something, and put his hand down again with a look of embarrassment.

"Take care of yourself, and send someone to pass on something."

"Well, let's go."

After the two parted, Song Baoling turned around and sat in the carriage, and saw Song Baichuan resting with his eyes closed.

The father and daughter were speechless all the way. After returning to the mansion, Song Baichuan called the housekeeper to the study.

Song Baozhu's death by throwing herself into the river was well known, but no one knew who spread the news that she was pregnant when she committed suicide, and the whole capital was discussing it for a while.

Li Shi originally wanted to make a big funeral for Song Baozhu, but Song Baichuan felt that the family tradition was not right and it was not appropriate to do it big, so he didn't let her make a big fuss.

However, Mrs. Li was clamoring for injustice, howling in the courtyard every night, making the whole house jump.

"My poor Zhu'er, it's okay to die a miserable life. Even the funeral after death is so simple. I'm sorry for you..."

Song Baoling stood behind Li Shi, listening to her cry without a trace of emotion, sighed helplessly, "Second Aunt, it's been so long, isn't it enough?"

"You don't really think that someone will pity Song Baozhu, pity you for a white-haired person to give a black-haired person."

When Li Shi heard her words, she got up angrily and cursed immediately: "It's you again! If it wasn't for you, the regent would have already..."

"What?" Song Baoling instantly became indifferent, "Do you think you can hold the regent with the child in Song Baozhu's belly?"

"You haven't seen his methods before, and you should have heard of them. To put it bluntly, he is a master who eats people without spit out bones. Do you think you can fight him?"

"For him, just moving his mouth can kill you and me, don't be stupid again."

Song Baoling also wanted to persuade Li Shi gently and patiently, but she knew very well that when dealing with such bullying people, only by making her fear from the bottom of her heart, would she know who not to provoke.

Sure enough, after listening to Song Baoling's words, Li Shi also understood that Jun Tianlin was someone who could not afford to offend, so he could only swallow his anger about Song Baozhu's death in the river.

Since then, the Song Mansion has finally calmed down.
