Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 230 Prince Xiao is behind bars

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. Ling Buhuo felt a little uncomfortable since he came back from the Cheng family last time, because he was alone in the house again.

After sighing for a while, he got up and went to work. But before he could go out, Lu Cheng came over and told her that Li Xu was here, clamoring to see him.

Ling Buhuo smiled and shook his head, and then met Li Xu in the study.

"Ling Zichen, you are living a very carefree life these days. Unlike me, you have tricked me. Do you know how I have been living these days?" Li Xu said

"Hey, what you said is wrong. This kind of thing is done consensually by you and me. You were very happy when you agreed. Why do you regret it now?" Ling Buhuo said.

"I didn't know Zhaojun was so stubborn. What do you think is good about Prince Xiao? In terms of reputation, he is not as good as me. Why does Zhaojun fall in love with him?" Li Xu complained.

"Don't you understand this? That's the extent of Prince Xiao's ability. They have only known each other for so long, but they can make He Zhaojun completely obsessed with him. You can't compare with him," Ling Buhuo said.

"Then I don't care. It was you who started this matter. Now I'm being roasted on the fire. If Zhaojun can't catch up this time, my father will have to send me to Danyang." Li Xu said roguely.

"Haha, I really don't blame Xiuyuan Hou. If I were Xiuyuan Hou, you would have gone to Danyang by now. I found that you really have no brain."

"When it comes to this method of attracting women, can you compare to Prince Xiao? Using your own shortcomings to attack the other's strengths, do you think you have no brains?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Ling Zichen, are you going too far? You can scold me, but if you don't give me an idea today, we won't be done with this!" Li Xu said directly

"You, you are really a real cutter, okay, let me ask you, what advantage do you have compared to the guy named Xiao?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Advantage? What advantage can I have? Wait, our family's power in the capital, yes, it is our family's power in the capital." Li Xu suddenly realized

"It seems that you are not too stupid. Yes, it is power. Your family's power in the capital is incomparable to that of Xiao. You won't cause him any trouble?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Well, it's no use just making trouble for him? What if Zhaojun comes forward?" Li Xu said

"You, you are really stupid. Let me ask you, where am I on duty?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Of course it's Tingwei's Mansion. I'm not stupid. Wait, what do you mean?" Li Xu said

"As long as you can figure out a way to send that person named Xiao to Tingwei Mansion, you don't have to worry about the rest. Without that person named Xiao causing trouble, wouldn't you still be able to get a little girl?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Hey, okay, okay, this is a good idea. Don't worry, I will make arrangements when I get back. I may not be able to handle big things, but I am best at frame-up." Li Xu said happily.

"Okay, don't tell me that I'm not good at it. Prince Xiao has many ways to deal with women. Aren't you afraid that he will cook the rice before it's raw?" Ling Buhuo reminded.

"Oh, thank you for reminding me. No, we can't let that pretty boy take advantage of me. I haven't gotten started yet, how can I take advantage of him?" After Li Xu finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Looking at Li Xu's furious back, Ling Buhuo shook his head helplessly. This Li Xu was really a playboy.

You really can't count on them for business matters, but for other things, they are very good at it.

Li Xu acted very quickly. In just three days, Prince Xiao was arrested and sent to the Tingwei Mansion for raping a common girl. Yes, that was the crime.

At this time, Ling Buhuo was in the public room, discussing this matter with Li Xu.

"I said you're such a bad guy, and you're robbing a common girl? With his method of dealing with girls, does he still need to rob them? You're really not polite at all." Ling Buhuo asked.

"What? No? Who said a pretty boy can't rob a girl? I said he robbed her, and he did. Not only did he rob her, but he also played with her."

"With all the witnesses and material evidence, it's impossible for him to deny it even if he wants to." Li Xu said proudly.

"Master Li, you really impressed me today. Okay, you can go back. I guess your beauty will beg for you soon. It would be bad if you weren't here." Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Oh, isn't it? By the way, we agreed in advance that no matter what I say later, this person can't be let go. You must remember it, right?" Li Xu said

"Haha, don't worry, I know you have a soft ear. If this person enters the Tingwei Mansion, he will never get out unless His Majesty orders it." Ling Buhuo said.

"Oh, I feel relieved with your words. In fact, if Zhaojun hadn't come to find me, I would have really wanted to see how unlucky that pretty boy is now." Li Xu said

"Okay, worry about extreme joy leading to sorrow. Let me remind you, you must stabilize the girl in your family. Don't let her go to find someone in the palace, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted." Ling Buhuo said

"Haha, don't worry, I know what I'm going to do." Li Xu said with a smile.

After finishing speaking, he left directly, and Ling Buhuo also shook his head. After sorting himself out, he left his public room and soon arrived in the cell.

Ling Buhuo sat comfortably on the chair, looked at Xiao Shizi who was imprisoned opposite him, and said, "I didn't expect that, as things turn, you might fall into my hands."

"Ling Buhuo, don't forget His Majesty's decree. Don't you think you can resist it?" Prince Xiao said.

Resist the decree? I said Prince Xiao, are you trying to scare me to death with such a big hat? Don’t you know what you did?

"The women were raped in broad daylight. Now that all the witnesses and physical evidence are available, what else do you have to say?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Absurd, Ling Buhuo, I am the majestic Prince Yong, what girl has not seen before? How could I rob him? This is obviously framed by someone!" Prince Xiao said angrily

"I know, I even know who set up this situation for you, but this has nothing to do with me. I only rely on evidence when deciding the case." Ling Buhuo said

"You, you are seeking personal revenge. I want to see Your Majesty, I want to see Your Majesty." Xiao Shizi said

"Meet His Majesty? I advise you to save it. Don't you know who you have offended? What can you do if you just meet His Majesty?"

"There are civil servants all over the dynasty. Who can speak for you?" Ling Buhuo mocked.

After hearing this, Prince Xiao didn't speak for a while, because it was really troublesome. The Li family alone was nothing, but the three families together were not to be underestimated.

The influence of the two living men among the civil servants is much greater than that among the nobles. Now that they are charged with such a crime, if they really want to go to court, it will be a disaster.

Seeing that Prince Xiao stopped talking, Ling Buhuo continued, "Sometimes I really admire you. You dare to steal a woman from Li Xu. Don't you know that he made a big fuss in the Taifu's mansion back then?"

"I know what you have in mind, but what I want to tell you is that everything is in vain. You see, even if I don't take action, you still fall into my hands." Prince Xiao looked a little ugly after hearing this. He never expected that the playboy Li Xu would dare to frame him, and it was such a crime.

This was obviously disgusting to him, but it was useless if he knew it. After all, everyone in the civil and military dynasties now knew that Ling Buhuo had the final say in the Tingwei Mansion.

Everything that comes to his Tingwei Mansion has to go through his level. He and I have already had issues, and now that he is in trouble, he will definitely add insult to injury.

Yes, he had never suspected that Ling Buhuo was colluding with the Li family. After all, Ling Buhuo's every move was actually influenced by Ling Buyi, and Ling Buyi had always been a lonely minister in the court.

He would definitely not have any contact with the Li family. At this moment, he only hated himself for being careless and forgetting about the methods of the playboy.

"Okay, I've been delaying you for so long. Prince Xiao, if you know what's going on, you can quickly sign and post this confession, and you'll save yourself some trouble." Ling Buhuo said.

"What? Ling Buhuo, what did you say? You asked me to plead guilty? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Prince Xiao, who was still deep in thought, suddenly became anxious when he heard this.

"Impossible? Prince Xiao, to tell you the truth, I've seen you unhappy for a long time. Now that I have such a rare opportunity, of course I can't miss it."

"But don't worry, I won't give you anything like an ice stool. After all, you are also a prince. If you leave any trauma, it won't sound good."

"It just so happens that I have read a lot of new books recently, and they are somewhat inspiring. I have invented a little trick, and no one has had the honor to experience it yet."

"So it's a great honor for you. You can also let me see if your smile is actually as good as I imagined. Come on, serve the crown prince and increase your official rank." Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

Following Ling Buhuo's order, several jailers soon opened the cell door, then pulled Prince Xiao out and went straight to the execution room.

At this time, Prince Xiao was very flustered. Although he still didn't know what the official promotion was, what good thing could be compared with the ice stool?

"Ling Buhuo. Ling Buhuo, I am the Crown Prince Yong, you cannot lynching me." Crown Prince Xiao shouted loudly, but it was of no use as no one paid him any attention.

Soon he was pressed into the torture chamber, and his hands and feet were tied. At this time, a jailer brought a basin of hot water with burlap paper next to it.

"What are you going to do, what are you going to do? I'm warning you, I am Prince Yong, if you dare to do anything to me, I will never let you go!" Prince Xiao shouted loudly.

But it was still in vain. When the first piece of paper soaked in hot water was pressed against his mouth and nose, he knew what the promotion meant.

Because the burlap paper was of poor quality, it was often damaged. Fortunately, Ling Buhuo had anticipated this, so he prepared a lot of burlap paper in advance.

It was enough, but as the paper increased little by little, Prince Xiao felt like he was going to die.

"How do you feel? Your Majesty, don't worry. I have plenty of paper and plenty of time. I have plenty of time to play with you slowly." Ling Buhuo said

"Ling Buhuo, Ling Zichen, Master Ling, I surrender, I plead guilty, I plead guilty, I did rape the daughter of the people, it was all my doing." Xiao Shizi begged for mercy.

"Hey, wouldn't it be nice if you were so happy earlier? Come here, bring me the confession and sign it for the prince. We can't let others say that we wronged the prince." Ling Buhuo said.

Xiao Shizi looked at the confession in front of him. He didn't read it carefully at all and just signed and signed it. He had no choice but to do it. He was really frightened.

This addition was so terrifying that it made him deeply experience the feeling of suffocation, and he experienced it repeatedly. He was not incontinent yet, and it was already at his maximum ability.

Ling Buhuo looked at the confession in his hand, smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "Okay. Send the prince back, prepare some delicious food, and charge it to my account. I can be considered as a shock to the prince."

"Master Ling, according to the laws of our dynasty, I am willing to pay money to atone for my sins. Can you please stop letting me stay here? Can I go back first?" Prince Xiao hurriedly asked.

"Your Majesty, it's really not my intention to embarrass you. It's the person you offended who said that if he doesn't get married, you won't be able to get out."

"You also know that compared to him, it's better for you to bully, otherwise you wouldn't come to my place, right?" Ling Buhuo said calmly.

After hearing this, Prince Xiao was so angry that he wanted to scold his mother, "What does it have to do with me that you can't catch up with He Zhaojun?" Before I chased He Zhaojun, didn't I have nothing to do with you?

Why didn't you dare to go to Lou's house to cause trouble again? Why don't you dare to frame Lou Yao in it? Now I have spent a lot of effort and finally kicked Lou Yao out.

Are you feeling energetic now? Isn’t this bullying an honest person? Where can he go to reason with this?

As for Ling Buhuo, he didn't know that Xiao Shizi had so much on his mind. If he knew, he would definitely tell him that you are so naive.

At the same time, Li Xu, who was thinking about the future in his room, sneezed several times.

This must be someone named Xiao scolding me. I don’t know what tricks Ling Buhuo used on him. No, I have to go take a look tomorrow and supervise him.

But at this time, a servant suddenly came to report that it was He Zhaojun who came to see him. When he heard that Zhaojun was coming, Li Xu couldn't think about anything else and hurriedly got up and went to see his sweetheart.

He ran forward quickly and slowly, almost losing his shoes, and then he saw He Zhaojun with a sad face. For some reason, when he saw Zhaojun like this, he felt heartbroken.

Why did you come forward and say, "Zhaojun, you are here, why are you looking so sad? Are you in any trouble? Don't be polite to me. I will definitely help you if I can."

"It's like this. Prince Xiao was suddenly taken into Tingwei's Mansion. People outside said that he raped civilian girls. How is this possible? I wanted to see him, but Tingwei's Mansion wouldn't let me see him, so ?" He Zhaojun said slowly

"Well, Zhaojun, it's not that I don't want to help you with this matter. It's just that I don't have any friendship with Ling Buhuo. He may not be willing to give me this face?"

"After all, this kind of crime is just a frame-up. This is obviously Ling Buhuo taking the opportunity to take revenge. Let alone me, even if my father is gone, it is probably useless?" Li Xuwei, is it possible?
