An Qien was locked up, and Lin Yanyun was very happy and told Lin Zhehua: "Dad, that bitch won't be able to stand up this time, so give her some pain."
Lin Zhehua felt that this matter was not simple. He knew that An Qi'en was not short of money and could not do such a thing. He looked at Lin Yanyun carefully and once suspected that it was her doing it, but his daughter was as stupid as a pig. , don’t look at those who usually show off their power, but they are actually just paper tigers.
This matter was so watertight that it was not something a stupid daughter like her could do.
Lin Yanyun said coquettishly again: "Dad, now is the best time for my daughter to become a princess. With this bitch here, she will definitely miss her good things."
When Lin Zhehua thought about the princess, he no longer thought about the fishy things about An Qien. At the moment, having a princess in the Lin family was the most important thing.
"The prince is keeping an eye on this matter. There is such a brother behind her. This matter has not been finalized yet. I warn you not to act recklessly, otherwise the Lin family will suffer. You should think about how to win the prince's favor now."
Lin Yanyun was furious. She was so impatient that she wanted to beat An Qien hard with a whip filled with pepper water, especially on her fair and fair face.
Keeping that face is also a disaster!
She won't allow anyone in this world to be more beautiful than her!
...
An Shi'an was extremely anxious and repeatedly risked his life for his sister, begging Lu Bochu to come forward and telling Lin Zhehua not to torture An Qien to extract a confession.
An Shi'an didn't need to say this. Lu Bochu had warned Lin Zhehua immediately, so Lin Zhehua didn't dare to mess around.
An Shian immediately started investigating the matter. Lu Bochu made it clear that he couldn't help An Qien, otherwise it would be unfair to talk about it.
But secretly he ordered his men to investigate the matter quietly.
An Qien was locked up in a dark and damp cell. The temperature was so low that she was so cold during the day, let alone at night. There was no bed and the floor was covered with dirty grass, giving off a foul smell.
She couldn't sleep and squatted alone in the corner, clasping her hands and knees, her cold red lips trembling, and her whole body trembling. She thought about herself in Jingyang, except Lin Jiaojiao, who disliked her, and other than that, she had not offended anyone.
The only hope now is placed on An Shian, hoping that he can find clues to clear his name...
Three days after An Qien came in, An Shian came to see her. Because according to regulations, he could not visit at this time, so he had already used his power to go through the back door.
Seeing that my sister's face was pale and sick, her eyes were dull and she couldn't stop coughing, and she was very cold. This was a gloomy cell. Not to mention a woman, even he, a man full of masculinity and fire, felt cold.
His worries were all written in his eyes, and he reassured An Qien: "Brother is already investigating and will definitely clear your name. Don't worry, they don't dare to do anything to you now. I will have someone bring you medicine." ."
"Ahem..."
An Qi'en put his fist to his mouth and coughed, and said weakly: "Brother, Qi'en thinks this matter may have something to do with the Lin family. Those two shopkeepers actually wanted to frame me even if they didn't care about their own lives. They are more important than their own lives." That’s my family, they must have some reason to frame me.”
An Shi'an glanced at the guards not far away and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, brother will clear your name. The prince and I are investigating this matter. The Lin family doesn't dare to do anything to you. I can't stay longer." it's time to go."
An Shi'an quickly explained a few words and left. He immediately told Lu Bochu about the situation. When Lu Bochu learned that An Qi'en was ill, he had a clearly worried look on his face.
This Lin Zhehua simply didn't take his words to heart. He emphasized that An Qi'en should not be harmed physically until the matter came to light.
A woman was imprisoned in a secret cell, which was a place that severely damaged a woman's vitality.
Lu Bochu frowned, and immediately took the medicine and went to the Yamen in person. Now he couldn't care less about avoiding suspicion. In his heart, An Qien's little body was more fragile than a cat, and he couldn't wait for a moment.
Lu Bochu saw Lin Yanyun outside the cell. She was holding a food box in her hand and a beautifully embroidered cloak on her arm. Xi'er was holding two quilts in her hands.
The moment Lin Yanyun saw Lu Bochu, she was secretly happy. Her mother was really good at guessing that An Shian would go to Lu Bochu to complain, and she was waiting here to give her advice.
"Long blessing, my lord." Lin Yanyun knelt down with a gentle expression.
Lu Bochu asked with a normal expression on his face: "What are you doing here?"
"Going back to the prince, Yanyun thought that Mrs. An was a woman, and she was already weak. The humidity in the cell severely damaged the woman's vitality. Yanyun thought of giving Ms. An some cold-repelling soup and some warm clothes. The matter has not been found out yet. "Ms. An is just suspected, so Yanyun came here boldly. Yanyun knows that this is against the rules, but she doesn't dare to deceive the prince, and asks the prince to forgive me."
Lin Yanyun looked considerate, gentle and virtuous.
But Lu Bochu was not fooled by this superficiality. It would be good if normal people can forget about each other if they have troubles in their psychology. There is no need to show extra courtesy.
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be a monster. Lin Yanyun has always been a stumbling block for An Qien, but now he is caring for An Qien like a good person.
Lu Bochu's expression didn't change, and he said calmly: "Miss Lin is interested."
He knew that An Qi'en would not use Lin Yanyun's things, so he continued: "Miss Lin Yanyun, please take it back. I will convey Miss Lin's wishes to Mrs. An."
Lin Yanyun's heart was filled with confusion. Her mother said that this would definitely win the prince's favor. Men all like kind and beautiful women, so why did the prince still have a cold attitude towards her?
Moreover, she refused her kindness. The item was given to An Qi'en, but the prince refused it on her behalf. This feeling of heartache was like being force-fed a full stomach of ice water.
She forced out an awkward smile, and Lu Bochu walked towards the cell without saying a single unnecessary word.
Lin Yanyun was furious in her heart, but on the surface she tried her best to restrain herself and could only stamp her feet to express her unhappiness.
What does the prince mean? Why is she so virtuous and virtuous that she doesn't deserve the prince to look at her more?
Xi'er carefully reminded her: "Miss, if you have anything to go back and talk to madam about, it's not good for people to see you outside."
"Snapped!"
Lin Yanyun angrily slapped Xi'er in the face. She was angry and had no place to vent her anger. Xi'er's voice was completely uncontrollable and she couldn't control it: "I want you to teach me how to do things!"
Xi'er covered her burning face and lowered her head to admit her mistake in fear: "Miss, I was wrong. I don't dare."
Lin Yanyun's lungs were about to explode with anger. She glared at Xi'er for a few times as if she wanted to eat someone, then rolled up her sleeves and returned to the Lin Mansion.
As soon as Lu Bochu entered the cell, Lin Zhehua waggled his tail like a pug and followed him to please him and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that Mrs. An got cold, so I specially changed her to a cell with good lighting. The cell before was not enough, so I had to It’s too much to ask Madam An to live in a darker cell.”
Lin Zhehua was afraid that Lu Bochu would blame him, so he quickly made excuses for himself.
Lu Bochu had a cold face and a very serious voice, and said in a majestic voice: "Be careful when you come in. If the matter is not found out, I will not spare you if there is something wrong with your predecessors!"
Lin Zhehua lowered his head tremblingly, hunched his shoulders and said humbly: "Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I don't dare to do this because of my humble position."
Lu Bochu glanced coldly back at Lin Zhehua, and couldn't help but walk even faster, walking to An Qien's cell in a few steps.
After An Shi'an left, Lin Zhehua immediately moved her to a cell with good lighting. Direct sunlight came in from the window and cast a warm light on the ground.
Not only is the lighting better, but there are also beds, which is a huge difference from the previous treatment.
An Qien hugged the quilt and sat in the light to keep warm. She was surprised when she saw Lu Bochu coming! Logically speaking, Lu Bochu, as the prince, should not come to the cell to see her.
Now that this matter has been brought to court, he should avoid suspicion, but not only did he come, Agui also came with something in his hand!
An Qien hurriedly got out of bed. The cell door was opened by officers and soldiers. Lu Bochu's dark eyes were filled with worry. She looked really bad, and her face was pale without any blood.
He was so weak that he seemed unable to stand at all.
"Your Majesty...Wan..."
An Qi'en didn't even have the strength to salute. She was suffering from a high fever and her bright eyes were so painful that she could hardly open them.
Lu Bochu hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "No need to salute."
An Qi'en was heartbroken. Men and women were not allowed to be intimate, but the prince's wrist had already grasped hers. The guards and Lin Zhehua had all seen it, and he was afraid that it would cause criticism.
An Qi'en retracted his hand nervously, lowered his eyebrows and said politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lu Bochu frowned. Seeing her haggard and lifeless look, he became anxious in his heart. He couldn't help but hold back his temper. He turned to Lin Zhehua and angrily yelled: "What did I tell you? Until the truth comes out, no one is allowed." One hair less, and I’m already so sick in just a few days!”
Lin Zhehua was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It is true that there are no extra cells. This good cell was specially set aside by Your Majesty."
An Qi'en had never seen Lu Bo get so angry for the first time, and it was because of her, and she couldn't help but feel the inexplicable emotions in her heart.
She said weakly: "My lord, please calm down. Master Lin also acts impartially. Qi En just wants Master Lin to find out the truth as soon as possible, so that Qi En can get out of prison as soon as possible."
Lu Bochu asked Lin Zhehua sternly: "How is the investigation going?"
"Back to your lord, the two criminals who killed each other were Mrs. An and they. I don't have any other clues yet."
Lu Bo's face turned red with anger, and he wanted to express his anger. If An Qi'en hadn't been there, he would have kicked Lin Zhehua in the chest.
An Qi'en saw Lu Bochu's expression was not good, and was afraid that he would do something rude, so he said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for remembering Qi'en. There is a lot of humidity in the cell, so Your Majesty should not stay for a long time. I hope Your Majesty will take care of himself."
