After rebirth, she was forced to marry by the sickly prince

Chapter 82 82, Why should you care?

However, every time he asked a question, Nalu Dazhi's face turned a little horrified.

At the end of the sentence, his withered body was ready to run away.

"Come here, take down Lu Dazhi."

After giving the order, Asuo immediately held the man down with his backhand and forced him to kneel down, making him unable to move.

When Lu Dazhi saw this, he became anxious and raised his head and shouted: "Your Highness, how can the young man sell salt? Your Highness, the Third Highness, must have made a mistake..."

"My family is extremely poor, and I only want to follow His Highness the Fifth to do something powerful and benefit the people. Apart from the meager money given by Your Highness, I have nothing... If Your Highness doesn't believe it, you can go to Xiao's home to check the truth.

"Your Highness, I have been wronged. Please save me..."

Xiao Qiling was shocked.

His relationship with Lu Dazhi can be regarded as both a teacher and a friend, so naturally he cannot just sit idly by.

The important thing is that he knows the situation of the Lu family very well.

"Brother Three Emperors, Lu Dazhi's family is poor, and he studied water conservancy with me. He just wanted to do a few major things that benefit the country and the people. How could he do such a thing that would harm the country and the people? Did you make a mistake somewhere?"

Xiao Qiyu smiled coldly, threw out the account book he was holding, stared at Lu Dazhi who was good at sophistry and shouted:

"I wonder if you recognize these handwritings?"

As soon as Lu Dazhi came into contact with those words, his face immediately turned pale, he closed his eyes in despair, and secretly screamed: My life is over.

Xiao Qiling picked it up and looked at it. The more she looked at it, the more frightened she became. She couldn't help but turn around and shout: "Mr. Lu, what's going on? The handwriting on it is clearly yours."

As a staff member, Lu Dazhi often copied Xiao Qiling's writings, so he knew the handwriting.

Yes, this is indeed written by him, there is no mistake.

Lu Dazhi was sweating profusely, gritted his teeth, and said not a word.

"If Mr. Lu feels that these accounts alone are not enough to convict you, then let your best friend Du Niang have a good chat with you?

"I heard that your Du Niang is pregnant with a child for you?

"Mr. Qilu has saved enough money and is waiting to get the deregistration documents so that he can marry you.

"Then I have to ask Mr. Lu, how did you collect the two thousand taels of silver in a short period of time? And who is helping you to deregister Du Niang?"

Xiao Qiyu had a stern look on his face, and he slapped the table hard, his eyes blazing with cold light: "Tell me the truth. How did you get that money?"

When the fifth prince Xiao Qiling heard these words, his complexion turned livid and his whole body trembled.

Selling salt is a serious crime.

In order to investigate this case, my father went to Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment to investigate for more than half a year.

How did he find out in the end that the cause of the disaster happened right under his nose?

What should I do?

He will be implicated to death.

He originally thought that Lu Dazhi would bite him, but now, he stared at this man whom he regarded as his confidant with a frightened expression.

At this moment, Lu Dazhi suddenly smiled strangely, with a look of death on his face:

"The secret you want to know, I'm afraid it will be impossible to find out in this life..."

Could this reaction be...

Xiao Qiyu suddenly thought of something and immediately pounced on him, grabbing his chin to prevent him from biting his teeth and committing suicide by poisoning the pill.

Fortunately, it was very timely.

Xiao Qiyu immediately took out the poison pill from his mouth.

Asuo stepped forward to help.

"How can it be so easy to seek death?"

After repeatedly making sure that his mouth was safe, Asuo slapped him twice and shouted: "Be honest..."

When Lu Dazhi saw that he was in vain, his thin face suddenly showed anger: "Let me die, let me die, why don't you let me die? You can't even ask a single word from my mouth."

He is really stubborn!

Xiao Qiyu said coldly: "Send the person to the Criminal Department immediately... let him interrogate him properly..."

Unexpectedly, after walking only a few steps, Na Lu Dazhi suddenly struggled to escape and hit the stone pillar outside the door. Blood splattered on the spot for five steps, which showed that he had used all his strength to seek death.

Faced with this situation, Xiao Qiyu was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Fortunately, he also knew some medical skills and immediately went to check to stop the bleeding. Although he fainted, his life was saved.

It was just that for a short period of time, he was unable to interrogate.

When the two subordinates saw that they had messed up their job, their faces turned pale with shock and they hurriedly knelt down: "This is a subordinate who neglected his duty. Please punish me..."

"Go back and get ten big boards each."

Xiao Qiyu has always been the most clear-cut about rewards and punishments.

"yes."

Both hands responded.

"Brother Three Emperors, I don't know about Lu Dazhi selling salt..."

Seeing such a shocking change, Xiao Qiling felt very anxious. She pulled Xiao Qiyu and wanted to argue. Beads of sweat already appeared on his forehead. He was extremely afraid that he would get into trouble. After all, he had single-handedly promoted Lu Dazhi.

If Lu Dazhi dies, it means he died without evidence.

What my father hates most is that there are people selling illicit salt and destroying the foundation of national tax revenue.

He was worried that he would somehow become the instigator.

If he were convicted of such a crime, it would be difficult for him to prove his innocence in front of his father. From now on, his future would be ruined.

"Well, this matter will be investigated clearly. You can stay at home with peace of mind. Wait a moment, I will leave two people to guard the front and back doors for you. The fact that I took Lu Dazhi away today must not be leaked. Do you understand?"

"I understand, my brother will cooperate fully."

Seeing that Xiao Qiling was already panicking, he comforted him again and then led his people to withdraw.

Lu Dazhi was a repeat offender, and Xiao Qiyu was afraid that he would make another mistake, so he personally sent him to the Ministry of Punishment, where people from the Ministry of Punishment, plus his own, would take care of him, and he would be sent to a doctor to treat him.

After the doctor looked at it, he immediately reported back to Xiao Qiyu, who was standing by to listen to the results: "Your Highness, don't worry, this person is fine and can wake up..."

That's the best.

"When can I wake up?"

"Tomorrow!"

"Asuo, please watch carefully. No one on guard duty in the prison today is allowed to leave. The doctor is staying in the prison to observe Lu Dazhi's condition at any time. Du Niang also stays in a separate secret room in the prison.

take into custody……"

This is done to prevent information from leaking out.

"yes."

Asuo agreed.

The dungeon was very gloomy, with cries of injustice coming and going.

When Xiao Qiyu walked through the long corridor, he accidentally saw a person: Mu Yuntao - Mu Yunjiang's third brother. He was actually imprisoned?

He thought he saw it wrong, but Dingqing took a look and saw that he was right:

Mu Yuntao huddled in the corner, dejected.

"Asuo, go and ask."

He gestured.

Asuo went to the jailer to inquire, and when he came back, he truthfully reported the cause and effect.

Xiao Qiyu heard about Mu Yuntao's case, and it actually involved the guard named "Luo Jun". He felt that there must be something fishy about this matter, so he immediately ordered:

"Asuo, send someone to the Mu family courtyard to see if anything important happened there..."

"Then who is the guardian here?"

"Let Ah Xu watch. You run to check for me first."

"yes."

Asuo went immediately.

When Asuo walked away, he suddenly thought: Why should he care about Mu Yunjiang?

So much so that Asuo just looked at him like that!

One, she is his doctor.

Second, he has a passion for talent.

After much thought, he found two high-sounding reasons for himself...

Second update. See you tomorrow.
