Chapter 130 Old Mother

............

In the past few days, Zhou Xiaoqing has had a new experience. People's hearts are really complicated and unpredictable. After talking with Shi Lao, Zhou Xiaoqing has some clues. People who have made friends with Shi Lao before promised to help Min Wen at that time, but Zhou Xiaoqing did not say anything about Mu Jie and Wan Gonggong's conspiracy. After all, There is no evidence. It is impossible to hear the dialogue between the two, and you can put such a big hat on the current Third Prince and His Royal Highness Mu Jie. If the entrustment is not human, Zhou Xiaoqing may be imprisoned for it.

Mr. Shi said that he could start from the assassin. If he was framed, he must have other material evidence. Because the third prince wanted to fight for the opportunity to murder the emperor during this period, he wanted to put Min Wen under house arrest on this charge. Even if there is no evidence at that time, if he can successfully ascend the throne Anyway, it's their world. Although it doesn't make sense, Mu Jie and the third prince have military power, and their words are still a little powerful.

It's just that Min Wen is too straightforward, and he didn't expect them to be so bold that they can't be trapped in it now.

Thinking about this, Zhou Xiaoqing is still good at being bullied. It's better to do it first, just to see who is more cruel. Zhou Xiaoqing packed up her things and prepared to entrust Shi Lao's relationship to take advantage of the moonlight to go to the prison to see the assassin.

In the past few days, Zhou Xiaoqing has been running outside the palace every day. She is a little overwhelmed. It's very hard. She is not only physically tired, but also tired. Has anyone ever tried to drag around among everyone even though they are obviously very tired? Zhou Xiaoqing has this feeling now. She can sleep while standing. When she combs her hair every morning, she will lose a lot of hair, all because she is worried.

After walking to the prison, Zhou Xiaoqing walked forward along the dim light on the aisle. Because this was not allowed, Zhou Xiaoqing should be extra careful. But this place is so gloomy and terrible. If it weren't for Min Wen to get rid of the crime as soon as possible, Zhou Xiaoqing would never have entered such a place, and she didn't know how many ghosts died in this prison. The wind outside sounded like a ghost crying. Candlelight or light or dark, and the shadow on the wall was more like a demon with teeth and claws. Weird.

Opening the door with the key, Zhou Xiaoqing walked in and saw a man tied to a stick without wearing half his clothes. On such a cold day, this person must be freezing to death.

But he doesn't seem to feel the same. Is it freezing and unconscious? Zhou Xiaoqing stood there and looked at this equally poor and hateful person. She didn't know whether to wake him up or let him suffer less in this moment of sleep.

His hair is very messy and covers most of his face, and his body is full of whip marks. In such weather, even a small opening will be difficult to heal, not to mention such a person who is whipped every day?

Zhou Xiaoqing took out the food she prepared and wrapped it in a thick cotton-padded coat, so it did not get cold. She put it in front of the stranger and opened the lunch box, and there was a strong smell of vegetables echoing in the room, which made this hellish prison have a trace of popularity for a moment.

The man's head moved slightly, and he didn't know how long he hadn't eaten. Zhou Xiaoqing felt that Mu Jie's trick was really poisonous, so she found such a person to frame Min Wen. He was wearing the waist card given by Min Wen, but he didn't say a word during the interrogation. He did not say that he was instructed by Min Wen or that he framed Min Wen, so that the most critical part of the case stagnated. This is also where they have ulterior motives.

At this moment, his face finally raised and looked at Zhou Xiaoqing weakly, but his eyes were full of desire. He must be hungry and extremely hungry, which made him raise his head completely without any strength. He just glanced at the food and his mouth yanked a few times.

Zhou Xiaoqing didn't want to use these meals to ** he said the truth of this matter. I don't know why it makes it impossible to do what must be done. Zhou Xiaoqing threw her chopsticks directly, scooped a large mouthful of food with a spoon, and handed it to him. The man hesitated for a moment. Maybe his inner struggle was also very fierce. Can he eat the food delivered by an unrecognized woman? I didn't care so much. I directly put my mouth up and swallowed it. Later, like a beast, I simply buried my face in the bowl without a spoon, but I ate it and suddenly left tears. I don't know what I remembered.

Zhou Xiaoqing saw that he didn't eat, so she put the bowl aside and took out the kettle, "Would you like some water?"

The assassin didn't say anything, continued to keep the initial movement, buried his face in his hair, and ignored Zhou Xiaoqing's words.

When Zhou Xiaoqing saw such a scene, she was not annoyed that this person ate but didn't say anything. She just whispered, "I know you are awake. I want to ask you a few questions. If you say it, you won't be so uncomfortable, and you won't suffer such inhuman treatment every day."

The assassin is still silent, as if Zhou Xiaoqing is just talking to herself, and this deadlock will last for a long time.

Zhou Xiaoqing walked to his side and sighed sadly, "Why do you do such a stupid thing? You don't need to mention your suffering, but also involve many people... My sweetheart, His Royal Highness King Jing, is now also in prison. If you have any difficulties, you can say it now. If there is someone You can also say it, so that your guilt will be less..." Zhou Xiaoqing said so much that she still didn't respond at all when she saw the assassin. If she didn't know that he had just eaten, she thought he was asleep.

"Why are you like this? If you want to die, don't drag others into the water. We have no grievances and no grudge against you. It's hard for me to meet someone who can accompany you for a lifetime. You have to destroy these with your own hands! ..." Zhou Xiaoqing's voice was hoarse, and she hated the person in front of her very much.

"I'm sorry." The man said in a low voice. Although he was quiet, Zhou Xiaoqing could hear it clearly, "I can't say about your problem, but thank you for your meal."

When Zhou Xiaoqing heard these words, she couldn't help laughing a few times, "Well, you are dead. Why don't you do a good thing before you die? You don't have to go to hell so soon." Zhou Xiaoqing was very angry when she heard this person's words. How could anyone do such a stupid thing for no reason?

The assassin didn't react when he heard this. He may have thought that Zhou Xiaoqing would be angry. If it were anyone else, he would be angry.

"Humph, don't you care about your mother when you die like this? Her eyes are not good. If there is no one around to help her in the future, life may be more miserable!" Zhou Xiaoqing mentioned the assassin's old mother.

"What? What's wrong with my mother? Is she all right?" The man was finally excited. It seemed that his son was a filial son, just like the old man's words.

Zhou Xiaoqing said coldly, "Okay? How can it be? Now the neighbors are pointing at your mother's backbone behind their back, scolding her for raising a murderer and daring to assassinate the emperor. I have been to see your mother these days, and someone will throw dirt into your well every day..."

"Stop it!" At this moment, I finally broke down. I clenched my fist and shouted painfully, "Mom... I'm sorry for you..."

"If you still have a conscience, you should end this chaotic situation. If you are willing to say who is behind the scenes, the court can still open up at that time. I don't believe you want to do this!" Zhou Xiaoqing forced her.

"Don't say..." The assassin shrugged his head powerlessly and didn't want to stop Zhou Xiaoqing from talking about the news he didn't want to hear.

"You are really a son of man. If you say you are a filial son, I think you are an unkind, unfaithful and unfilial person!!!" Zhou Xiaoqing almost cursed. She knew that it made her mother very sad, but why did she do it?

"How can I do this? If I hadn't been forced to be desperate, why would I have to do this?!!" The assassin's face turned horrible red and defended himself. Now he was finally angry. He was not what Zhou Xiaoqing said, and he also had difficulties. Zhou Xiaoqing was still a little relieved to see this scene. At least he began to speak.

Zhou Xiaoqing's tone softened, "Okay, I can not force you or talk about this. I just want to tell you that your mother misses you very much. Every time I went to see her, she would ask me the same question. When will my son come back? Is there any misunderstanding? He can't do those things..." Zhou Xiaoqing slowly said, hearing that the assassin's face was full of tears and he had been with his old mother for so many years, and now he is Stay away, so there are a lot of emotions and uneasiness in my heart.

"Mother...mother..." He cried and was powerless to accept the cruel fate.

"It's difficult for you to give up this family affection. Have you ever thought that you are not a person by doing this yourself. Many people will be hurt because of you."

"But what can I do? The mistake has been made. I just hope that His Royal Highness Mu Jie can keep his promise and take good care of my mother."

Zhou Xiaoqing was shocked that this matter was indeed related to Mu Jie, but she must quietly dig out these inside stories.

"Mu Jie? How dare you cooperate with him? Don't you know his means? Maybe after using you, you will cross the river and tear down the bridge. At that time, even if you regret it, it will be too late!"

"No," the man in black shook his head, maybe he didn't want to admit that possibility in his heart.

"This is the meal cooked by your mother. Your mother means that you can listen to me. I don't mean to frame you. If I can save King Jing, I will also find a way to save you. This is my promise to your mother. It depends on whether you like it or not."
