Chapter 221

A moment later, the gavel sounded again in the hall, and Sun Boqin stood up from the chair, and said to Feng Qinyu who was kneeling under the stage: "I will investigate what you said."

Then, he signaled to the yamen servants on the left and right, "Put her in the prison first. Wait for the officer to find out."

"Yes, my lord."

"Retire."

After a few deep and resounding "mighty" sounds, Feng Qinyu was taken away from the courtroom by the yamen servant, and Sun Boqin also returned to the back room from the hall.

"My lord, look at this case, is what the woman said true?"

The master who had been scolded by Sun Boqin earlier walked up to Sun Boqin and asked in a low voice.

Seeing that Sun Boqin was still squinting his eyes and silent, as if he was thinking about something, when he heard the master's question, he cast his eyes on him and said angrily: "Is it true? What's the use of guessing here? .”

"Yes, yes, what your lord said is very true, I am confused by my lowly position."

"Send a few people to Yuelao Temple to investigate. Among the people who went to Yuelao Temple today, is there any suspicious person who has appeared somewhere? .have you understood?"

"Yes, my lord, the humble job will be done immediately."

The master was about to leave, when there was a hasty knock on the door outside the study, "My lord! My lord!"

"Come in."

Disturbed by the hasty and abrupt voice outside the door, Sun Boqin frowned in displeasure, and when he saw the yamen servant come in, he lowered his voice and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"My lord, the prince is here."

The guard's expression seemed a little cramped and flustered, while Sun Boqin was stunned for a moment, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, "My lord?"

Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he stood up from the chair, "Is it the king of politics?"

"Yes, my lord."

"Quick, hurry up and see the driver."

Sun Boqin immediately opened the door and walked out of the study, thinking, but he was wondering how the always defiant Prince Yizheng would have time to come to the mansion of his small Yuncheng governor.

Something important must have happened.

While thinking about it, even though he had already arrived in the front hall, he saw that Dongfang Yunlie was still indifferent and alienated as usual in the court hall, but, in today's Dongfang Yunlie's eyes, there was more tension that he would never see before.

"Xiaguan Yuncheng Mansion Yin Sun Boqin has seen the prince."

Seeing Dongfang Yunlie sitting in the hall, Sun Boqin immediately went to meet him.

Dongfang Yunlie looked at Sun Boqin, without any unnecessary greetings or politeness, he said directly: "Master Sun, this king is here to ask you about someone."

"I don't know who the prince wants to inquire about? The next official must know everything."

Dongfang Yunlie's words made Sun Boqin even more puzzled.

Who else in his governor's yamen can be inquired by a majestic king who discusses politics.

Just when he was wondering, Dongfang Yunlie spoke again, "I heard that you brought a murderer back from Yuelao Temple today?"

"Yes, my lord. It is true."

Strange, why did the prince take care of this matter?

Could it be... Does the girl in the prison have anything to do with the prince?

Thinking of the calm and indifferent temperament that Feng Qinyu exuded at that time, although she looked a little embarrassed at the time, it still couldn't conceal the noble aura that naturally exuded from her.
