Xie Yin's voice was stern, and he grabbed King Cheng's shoulders and shook them hard, trying to get him to say that Song Tangning and the others were lying, or that they were talking nonsense.
However, King Cheng remained silent all the time, only pressing his lips tightly and looking pale.
"You lied to me...you all lied to me..."
Xie Yin's eyes were red, his lips were trembling, and his face was twisted to a ferocious expression: "I am the son of my mother-in-law, and I am the bloodline of the Rong family and the Xie family. I am a descendant of the royal family, and the heir apparent of Prince Cheng's family... You can't even think of lying to me..."
"You're like this, are you trying to lie to me? Look at how you look like your aunt from head to toe."
Tang Ning stood outside the cell door and sneered: "You are shameless, ruthless and unjust. You have learned all about Xie Tianyu's selfishness and viciousness. I think that when he brought you back to Prince Cheng's Mansion, he took a fancy to your despicable nature. Are you, an ignorant white-eyed wolf like you, worthy of being your aunt's son?"
"Song! Tang! Ning!!"
Xie Yin quickly rushed to the front of the cell and grabbed the cast iron cell door with all his strength. The cell door swayed and made a loud noise, which was extremely shocking in the prison at night.
It's a pity that the woman standing outside was not frightened by him at all. Instead, she watched him go crazy with a calm expression, and the sarcasm in her eyes was undisguised.
"Why, you are so angry because of what I said?"
Tang Ning scoffed: "Last night at Prince Cheng's Mansion, what did you say to get your aunt to save you?"
"You said you were deceived by Xie Tianyu, and you said you never thought of harming her. You said you didn't know King Cheng, let alone that he wanted to harm my aunt. You never had any intention of harming her, but what did you say just now?"
"You want to protect your position as the eldest son of Prince Cheng, and you want to protect your glory and wealth. You know that there are loopholes in Xie Tianyu's words, but you would rather believe what he says."
Tangning looked mockingly at Xie Yin, who was holding on to the cell door and looking at her.
"I used to think you were stupid, that you were young and ignorant, but now I know that you are simply selfish and vicious. You want to step on your aunt and get out of prison and then bite her back. You know how aunt is, but you don't do anything. If you hesitate, choose to betray your mother who has cherished you for more than ten years and let others smear her innocence."
"Xie Yin, how can a person like you have the nerve to call her mother and concubine?"
The ferocity on Xie Yin's face froze a little bit: "I didn't...I'm not...it was my father who said that my concubine was having an affair with Gu Helian. It was he who told me that my concubine had betrayed us. I just didn't want them to turn against each other..."
He clutched the cell door with red eyes and prayed:
"Tang Ning, Tang Ning, you believe me... I am your cousin, we grew up together, you believe me..."
Tang Ning sneered when he heard this and looked at Xie Yin with even more disgust: "It's because we grew up together that I understand how hateful you are. I don't dare to have a life-threatening cousin like you."
Seeing that Xie Yin still wanted to speak, she looked cold:
"You don't need to explain to me. There will be a place for you to explain later. I just hope that when the sentence comes, you and Xie Tianyu can still have such a deep father-son relationship, which will move the world."
Xie Yin swayed and looked at the woman not far away in disbelief.
This was the sister who used to follow him like a tail, the little girl who loved to pester him and her cousin. But now she has the same face, but there is no trace of intimacy in those almond-shaped eyes, they are just so quiet. When I looked at him quietly, it was as dark as a cold spring abyss.
"Tang Ning..."
Xie Yin trembled, and before he could speak, he met Xiao Yan's indifferent eyes.
Xiao Yan said to Tang Ning: "You don't need to tell them more. With Aunt Jiang here, Xie Yin and Prince Cheng can't rely on the Rong family. As for other matters, the punishment is that after entering the gate of the Criminal Division, no one can Come out with a strong mouth."
"Canglang."
Xiao Yan called out, and Cang Lang led the people over.
Prince Cheng's expression changed drastically: "Xiao Yan, I am the prince of the royal family, you cannot execute me..."
"The rebellious prince?"
Xiao Yan glanced at Prince Cheng with a faint smile but not a smile: "Will the prince tell me that the more than 300 thunder crossbows in your house, as well as the weapons and ladders that were found, are all used for collection?"
"Your Majesty has handed over your rebellion to this governor for trial. He only ordered everything to be done quickly. You should know what this means?"
King Cheng's face turned pale for an instant.
What Emperor An said means that he doesn't care about his life or death at all. As long as there is a result, it also means that he is just a rebellious "prisoner" here in Xiao Yan. No matter what means Xiao Yan uses next, as long as Emperor An's intentions are found out, If you know something, you will not hesitate to use severe punishment.
The cell door was opened by Cang Lang, and the jailer dragged the two of them out.
Xie Yin grabbed the cell door and said anxiously: "Tang Ning, Tang Ning, please spare me... ugh!"
Canglang kicked him on the hind legs and knocked him against the cell door. Before he stepped forward, he grabbed Xie Yin's arm and twisted it. When he was kneeling on the ground and screaming, there was a black-armored guard. The men came in and forcibly dragged Xie Yin out.
When King Cheng saw someone coming to arrest him, he ignored Xie Yin who was crying outside and said sharply: "Song Tangning, don't you want to know where the child Rong Yue gave birth to is?!"
"What did you say?" Tang Ning's expression changed.
"I said, don't you want to know where Rongyue's child is?"
Prince Cheng stood in front of the cell and faced the two people outside, trying his best to calm down: "I know Rong Yue is very affectionate. Even if she doesn't care about me and Xie Yin, she should still care about her own bloodline, which is also a child of your Rong family."
His voice was a little hoarse, "As long as you let me go...let me go out..."
In the middle of his words, King Cheng looked at Xiao Yan with cold eyes and suddenly remembered that he could not escape unharmed due to his current rebellion, so he quickly changed his words.
"No, there is no need to let me go. As long as you don't kill me. Hiding weapons is a serious crime, but with the clan as a guarantee, my crime will not lead to death. As long as you can spare me a way to live, even if it ends with exile. The king also admits it."
"As long as I can survive, I will tell you the whereabouts of that child, hand him over to you, and reunite him with Rongyue's mother and son. How about that?"
Tang Ning's palms felt a little cold: "You said he is still alive?"
"Of course, I will keep him in a safe place. After all, he is my bloodline..."
King Cheng's words made Tang Ning look ugly.
She didn't expect that the child was still alive and still in Xie Tianyu's hands. The aunt could not care about Xie Yin, but could she not care about the child?
That was the bloodline she had fought so hard to give birth to, and it was also her own flesh and blood that she had never masked...
"Song Tangning, Rong Yue treats you as if she were his own son. He would not hesitate to leave Prince Cheng's Mansion and turn against me because of you. You should be reluctant to see her sad, right?"
"As long as you let me go, I will definitely hand the person over to you."
For a moment, Tang Ning was moved by King Cheng's words.
Just when she was about to speak, Xiao Yan put his hand on her shoulder.
"Xie Tianyu, do you think people who have entered the Criminal Division can still keep secrets?"
Xiao Yan looked at King Cheng coldly, and the words in his mouth made King Cheng's face, who was originally sure that Tang Ning would agree, turn pale.
"Don't say that the child may not be alive. Even if he is alive, you are not qualified to use him to negotiate terms with this governor. I have many means to make you talk."
"Send him to the Criminal Division and have someone treat him well."
