Song Huan's words were understated, but they were like a rumbling thunder, exploding in Jiang Lin's heart!
His hands holding the tea cup trembled uncontrollably.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, you misunderstood!"
"This is Prince Rong's residence. How dare I do anything untoward to you?"
However, it was impossible for Song Huan to give Jiang Lin any chance to make excuses.
"Somebody come!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Hold him down to me and search him!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Soon enough, before Jiang Lin even had time to react, he saw several muscular palace guards rushing in from outside the door.
"Your Highness! Why are you doing this?"
"Please believe me, it will never be like what you said!"
"What are you doing? Don't touch me!"
"I am the personal butler of the Grand Master..."
Before Jiang Lin could finish speaking, the guard had already pulled out the small medicine bottle from his body.
Song Huan took the medicine bottle in his hand and looked at it repeatedly. He saw that the small bottle was filled with transparent liquid.
Although the liquid is colorless and odorless, it gives people a very strange feeling.
"Steward Jiang, what is this?"
Jiang Lin's cold sweat ran down the seam of his hair, and dripped into his collar from his temple hair that was close to his ears.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, this is just the medicine I use to treat colds!"
"As I said just now, I've been feeling cold for the past two days..."
Song Huan didn't have the patience to listen to his nonsense here: "Since it is a cold medicine, steward Jiang should drink it now."
"As long as Steward Jiang drinks up the contents of this medicine bottle, I will immediately send someone to escort Steward Jiang back to the house!"
"I will never embarrass Butler Jiang again in the future!"
Seeing Jiang Lin's hesitation, Song Huan sneered.
"Don't you dare to drink?"
"It doesn't matter, I will find someone to feed you!"
"Somebody come!"
"Feed Butler Jiang to drink medicine!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several guards pinned Jiang Lin to the ground.
"Since it is the prince's kindness, Butler Jiang should stop refusing!"
Seeing the bottle of potion gradually approaching his mouth, Jiang Lin, who couldn't help but struggle, finally broke through his defenses.
"I said!"
"I said!"
"This medicine is poison!"
"The Grand Master asked me to poison His Highness with the poison!"
"Half an hour after taking this medicine, you will fall into a deep sleep and never wake up!"
"Please forgive me, Your Highness!"
"Shangguanyi threatens and induces me, but I really dare not disobey!"
"I have no choice but to do so!"
Song Huan raised his hand slightly, and the guard understood and twisted Jiang Lin to the ground.
"I will ask you a few questions. If you answer them truthfully, I will not kill you."
"If you dare to hide something, this bottle of medicine will be the last thing you drink in your life."
"Do you understand?"
Looking at Song Huan with a chill in his pupils, Jiang Lin couldn't help but shudder. How dare he say that he didn't understand!
"I understand, I understand!"
"I will tell you everything I know. I dare not hide anything from Your Highness!"
"Okay." Song Huan sat back in his chair, "I will ask you first."
"When we were in Huixian Yage, you wanted to use Xiuyue's hands to kill me."
"You didn't expect that the matter would be revealed, so you killed Xiuyue in a fit of rage."
"Yes or no!"
Jiang Lin nodded hesitantly, then shook his head vigorously.
"Yes... I received threats from Shangguan Yi, so I had to take this last step!"
"However, Xiuyue's death was not caused by me!"
"It's that old thief Shangguan Yi. He has very human preferences and his methods are extremely cruel!"
"There are countless young girls who died tragically at his hands..."
When Jiang Lin mentioned this matter, his eyes turned red, and the hatred did not seem to be staged.
Obviously, he has always been worried about this!
Song Huan, on the other hand, was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear!
I can't tell that that old guy Shangguan Yi still has such a perverted side.
Absolutely outrageous!
Beast!
No, this old guy is worse than a beast!
"Okay, then I will continue to ask you."
"How many dirty things has Shangguan Yi done over the years that you have handled for him?"
"What evidence has been left behind?"
Now if you want to overthrow Shangguan Yi, you only need evidence submitted by the Minister of Household Affairs.
If you want to dig out all the things he has done, this is just the tip of the iceberg!
However, Jiang Lin has followed him for many years and must know a lot of things he has committed.
If Jiang Linzhuan can be used as a tainted witness, Shangguan Yi will definitely be unable to stand up!
Jiang Lin frowned and thought carefully for a long time, and then slowly said: "I have done a lot of scandalous things for Shangguan Yi, but Shangguan Yi acted too cautiously and failed to allow me to leave any evidence!"
"However, I have the habit of keeping a diary."
"I remember everything over the years very clearly!"
"As long as these people involved in the case are arrested and interrogated one by one, Shangguan Yi will definitely be punished!"
Song Huan couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Who the hell keeps a diary?
This Jiang Lin is really no ordinary person!
Maybe over the years, he has recorded these things one by one, which can be regarded as preparing a way out for himself!
Now that there is evidence, things will be easier to handle.
Song Huan looked directly into Jiang Lin's eyes.
"I have one last question for you."
"Are you willing to assist me in bringing down this deep-rooted tree like Shangguan Yi?"
"I am willing!"
This time, Jiang Lin answered decisively without any hesitation.
Today I agreed to Shangguan Yi to come and poison me, which meant that there was no way back.
If by luck the poisoning succeeds, he will also fall into a situation where his life or death is uncertain.
If you fail to succeed and return with the result of failure, you will definitely die!
What's more, by now, Prince Rong has understood everything!
Under such circumstances, only a fool would not surrender to Prince Rong!
Jiang Lin's answer made Song Huan very satisfied.
"Very good, you are indeed the kind of smart person that I admire."
"Xiao Lingzi!"
"Inform the head guard and go to the Grand Master's Mansion."
"After the Grand Master's housekeeper came, I fell into a coma!"
"Steward Jiang is also missing!"
"No matter what he says, we must bring him to Prince Rong's Mansion!"
Xiao Lingzi took a step forward, bowed his head towards Song Huan and said, "Yes!"
"Also," Song Huan added, "take my king's handwritten edict and ask Qi Yuan, the Minister of Punishment, to come all the way."
"Let's just say that Grand Master Shangguan Yi conspired to poison the prince. He is guilty of an unforgivable crime. He must be sent to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment immediately!"
"Yes!" Xiao Lingzi also had a little excitement on his face, "Your Highness, do you have any other instructions?"
Song Huan thought for a moment: "Finally, I deliberately revealed the news."
"Especially, I want Song De to know about this!"
Song De and Xu Rong also have a key piece of evidence that can convict Shangguan Yi.
Now that Shangguan Yi is in trouble, they will not let go of such a great opportunity easily.
