Chapter 894
Xiao Lintian held Ling Yu's hand, anxious.
I don’t know how King Ye is doing with the affairs in the palace!
If something goes wrong, then I won't be able to testify against Dong Zhu and save Ling Yu!
Time passed little by little.
Prince Hongshan said impatiently: "Prince Cheng, the emperor has decided to behead Ling Yu at three quarters noon, and there is not much time until three quarters noon!"
"Will your case still go to trial?"
He Zhu also said angrily: "Prince Cheng, we can't wait indefinitely! You have to give us a deadline!"
The melon-eaters outside were also impatient with waiting and shouted one after another.
"Prince Cheng, this is not how you want to protect Ling Yu!"
"We are all here to see you interrogate the case. If you don't know how to interrogate, go down and let Prince Hongshan do the interrogation!"
"Substitute...substitute..."
People in Prince Wei's Mansion and He Zhu's Mansion took the lead in shouting.
King Wei looked at Xiao Lintian proudly and said hypocritically: "Fourth brother, you have seen it. It's not that the emperor is making things difficult for you. It's really that Ling Yu did something so vicious that it aroused public outrage!"
"Why don't I give you another stick of incense? If the time is up and your witness hasn't come yet, then don't blame the emperor for being ruthless!"
King Wei turned to Prince Cheng and said sternly: "Prince Cheng, just a stick of incense! When the time is up, I will take Ling Yu away immediately and go to my parents Ning to wear mourning clothes!"
Prince Cheng glanced at Xiao Lintian and said helplessly: "Then just wait for another stick of incense!"
Xiao Lintian said nothing. If King Ye hadn't arrived after a stick of incense, he would rescue Ling Yu at all costs.
His princess, he will never allow anyone to hurt her!
Xiao Lintian was half-kneeling on the ground. He held Ling Yu's hand in one hand while quietly injecting his inner energy into her body.
He didn't know why Ling Yu became like this, but as long as Ling Yu didn't die, he couldn't give up hope.
"Ayu, wake up quickly!"
Xiao Lintian thought to himself.
Incense has been lit in the hall.
Doctor Liao, An Zhe and the others felt their hearts tightening as they watched the incense burn little by little.
In the crowd, Prince Kang and Concubine Shao watched the drama silently. Even at such a critical moment, Ling Yu had not moved yet. Could it be that she died like this?
They saw that several servants from Prince Wei's Mansion were already carrying linen filial piety cloths, waiting to take Ling Yu away.
Zhao Zhenzhen's maid raised her lips with a mocking smile when she saw it. It's a pity that Princess Kang didn't come, otherwise she would have been happy to see Ling Yu in mourning!
The incense was half burned, and the curved ash fell on the incense table. The hope of those who cared about Ling Yu seemed to be half extinguished with the fall of the ash.
Princess Wei and the others looked at the incense with burning eyes, praying that it would burn quickly.
"It's almost gone..."
Someone suddenly shouted in the silence.
Xiao Lintian looked up and saw that the incense on the incense table was only as long as a bone.
His heart tightened and he subconsciously held Ling Yu's hand tightly, as if he was about to lose something important.
He looked outside and saw that there was still no movement at the end of the road outside the clan's mansion.
"Prince Cheng, pronounce the sentence!"
King Wei couldn't wait to shout: "Don't miss the funeral of my father Ning!"
Prince Cheng was silent. He really couldn't bear to announce Ling Yu's death sentence like this!
But the witness Xiao Lintian brought was not convincing, and there was no important witness or material evidence. Even if he wanted to protect Ling Yu, he couldn't find a suitable excuse!
Princess Wei suddenly sneered: "Prince Cheng, I know that you will tolerate Ling Yu, so I specially asked for another imperial edict!"
"Prince Hongshan, please read it out!"
