The psychic princess is cute and sassy

Chapter 167: Shifting the blame

Xiao Yihan glanced at his sister and asked, "I wonder why, my lord, you insist on interrogating Mr. Yan personally?"

"This king is not trying Yan Yutang, but his daughter Yan Aiqin!" Duguwei corrected.

Xiao Yihan was a little surprised: "The person who committed the crime this time is Mr. Yan, and it should have nothing to do with his daughter Yan Aiqin!"

"The king is interrogating Yan Ai Qin for other reasons. How about it being convenient for you?" Dugu Wei discussed.

Really, I am too lazy to go to the palace again!

Xiao Yihan thought for a moment and said, "If King Wei doesn't want to interrogate Mr. Yan, I can be accommodating to you!"

Hearing this, Dugu Wei instantly resurrected with full health: "I like to deal with such a refreshing person like you!"

"..." Lu Zhaozhao.

It’s not time for you to look disgusted just now!

"Excuse me, Mr. Xiao, please lead the way!" Duguwei hurriedly signaled without giving him a chance to regret.

Xiao Yihan nodded and led them towards the cell.

The group of people walked in the dark cells for a while, and finally stopped in one of the cells.

I saw that Aunt Song and Yan Aiqin, who were dressed in jewels just a few days ago, were now clinging to each other in embarrassment.

Watching them with vigilance, they arrived unexpectedly!

"Why did you follow King Wei to Dali Temple if you didn't just stay at home?" Xiao Yihan quietly approached his sister and asked in a low voice.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced at Yan Aiqin in the cell and lowered his voice: "Yan Aiqin used underhanded methods to frame her eldest sister some time ago, and she happened to be hit by us. The method she used was the same as Liu Qing'er's attempt to win the crown prince. The methods used by the soul are almost the same, so we suspected that there should be a connection between her and Liu Qing'er, so we thought of interrogating her personally, maybe we can take the opportunity to find clues about Liu Qing'er!"

Xiao Yihan didn't expect that a little concubine in the Yan family would be related to Liu Qing'er.

"Take her to the torture room alone for interrogation. Firstly, it will clear her mind. Secondly, if she refuses to confess, it will be easier for her to be tortured!" Duguwei's medium-pitched voice was just enough for the mother and daughter to hear clearly.

Aunt Song and Yan Aiqin's faces suddenly turned pale.

"Prince Wei...Prince Wei...this is all the master's fault. My daughter and I don't know anything. I hope that Prince Wei will find out!" Aunt Song trembled, knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly.

Yan Aiqin said with a white face: "My mother and I have been staying in the back house all year round. I have no idea what my father has done over the years. If King Wei wants to know something, he should interrogate his father. He should interrogate us." , we don’t know anything either!”

"..." Lu Zhaozhao listened to the two of them collectively blaming each other.

I wonder how Mr. Yan would feel if he heard at this moment that the mother and daughter whom he cherished so much were the first to push him out in the face of adversity.

Will he regret that his beloved concubine destroyed his wife?

"Who told you that this king is going to interrogate you about Mr. Yan's bribery case?" Dugu Wei raised his eyebrows.

When Aunt Song and Yan Aiqin heard this, a look of confusion flashed across their faces.

Isn't it because they were imprisoned in the cell this time because they were implicated in taking bribes from their master (father)?

Then if he doesn't interrogate them, what else can he interrogate them about the bribery matter?

"What I want to interrogate today is that you used underhanded methods to cause your eldest sister to jump into the lake!" Dugu Wei's sharp eyes fell on Yan Aiqin.

Yan Aiqin's pupils trembled violently, but she quickly lowered her head: "I, I don't know, King Wei, what do you mean by this? It was obviously the eldest sister who jumped into the lake by herself that day, and it had nothing to do with me. If you don't believe it, what happened on the boat that day?" You can ask any person you want, they can all testify for me!" "It seems that you are not willing to tell the truth!" Duguwei curled up the corners of her lips, looked sideways, and ordered to the jailer: "Catch the person out , take it to the torture chamber!"

"Yes!" the jailer responded, opened the cell door and quickly walked in.

Yan Aiqin's face turned pale with fright, and she hugged her mother tightly: "I won't go to the torture chamber, I don't want to go to the torture chamber with them..."

"If anything happens, come to me, don't hurt my daughter!" Aunt Song tightly protected her daughter in her arms like an old chicken protecting a chick.

The jailers showed no mercy at all. They stepped forward, one grabbed Aunt Song and the other grabbed Yan Aiqin, and forcefully separated the mother and daughter.

"Mother! Save me! Mother! Save me...save me..." Yan Aiqin screamed miserably, reaching out to grab her mother's hand, but she could only watch helplessly as her hand became farther and farther away. , until he was completely dragged out of the cell: "...Mom...save me...save me..."

"Let go of my daughter...please let go of my daughter...come at me if you want to beat or scold me, don't embarrass my daughter...I beg you...I beg you..." Aunt Song kept kowtowing heavily in their direction, vividly embodying a mother's love for her children.

"Don't worry! As long as your daughter answers obediently, no one will embarrass her about the questions asked by King Wei!" Lu Zhaozhao said to Aunt Song, who kept kowtowing.

She loves her daughter so much, yet she can torture other people's daughters without changing her expression!

It really is……

Only when the board hit me did I know it hurt!

Aunt Song stopped in a daze, kowtowed repeatedly, and looked at her with a hint of supplication.

Lu Zhaozhao naturally knew what she was thinking, but he said nothing and strode towards the torture chamber.

Walking into the execution room, I saw that Yan Aiqin had been tied to a wooden stake by the jailer's hands and feet.

"I will ask you again, did you use some sinister means to cause your eldest sister to jump into the lake?" Dugu Wei asked.

"It's not me! It's not me... It's really not me..." Yan Aiqin shook her head subconsciously and said: "... I didn't harm her. Her jumping into the lake had nothing to do with me... It's really not me... It must have been her intention. Before you She is trying to frame me by stirring up trouble in front of her... Please King Wei please find out clearly that I really didn't harm her..."

"Originally, I was thinking that as long as you were willing to tell the truth, you would suffer less physical pain, but now look, are you forcing me to torture you?" As he spoke, Duguwei picked up the shelf. A leather whip: "There are many barbs on this whip. If this whip is used, not only will the skin be torn, but the flesh will also be hooked a lot!"

As his words fell, Yan Aiqin's whole body shook like chaff, and her eyes were filled with deep fear.

Duguwei held the whip and walked towards her step by step.

"Don't... don't..." Yan Aiqin shook her head desperately, and big tears fell from her eyes one by one.

Duguwei paused half a meter away from her, flicked his arm hard, and the sound of the whip tearing through the air resounded in the execution room.
