Chapter 141: Temptation

With the age of Qin's mother, it is not a minor matter to beat a hundred major boards, especially the yamen in the prison hall, who will not show mercy because you are old.

Chu Xinyu did not sympathize with her, but admired her loyalty and took everything into consideration. Yuan did not hurt her at all, which made her very unwilling!

Not only Chu Xinyu was unwilling to give up in the punishment hall, but Fu Guanjue was also one of them. He originally thought that this time he could avenge his previous shame and punish Chu Xinyu, and then trampled on her hard, but she had Lin Chenyao's help to find the counter for her and clear her of suspicion.

When Zheng Shangshu talked to Lin Chenyao, he walked to Chu Xinyu and said contemptuously: "In order to escape, just find a servant to come out to take the blame. Chu Xinyu, you are really capable!"

"It's not that I'm very capable, but that evil cannot defeat righteousness." Chu Xinyu also responded coldly and said, "Fu Guanjue, I have no grudges with you."

"You snatched my second sister's marriage, and you will become enemies with me at this point."

Chu Xinyu only thought his words were ridiculous and said, "She was not engaged to Lin Chenyao, and she didn't have a relationship with Lin Chenyao, so how could she rob it?"

"She and Lin Chenyao..."

"Wait." Chu Xinyu interrupted him and said, "Don't say that she and Lin Chenyao are in love and are in love for life. She is a well-educated lady from a high school, but she has made a lifelong promise to a man. This is a conspiracy. Therefore, you must not say such words. Otherwise, the rumors outside are not slander, but true, and then Qin's mother's crime cannot be slandered."

"you……"

"Since you do this, why are you afraid of others saying it? I didn't point it out in the classroom because of the reputation of other girls in the Fu family. So, don't provoke me again because of her affairs, otherwise, I will tell everyone that you secretly have a crush on your cousin!"

"Chu Xinyu, you dare!" Fu Guanjue's eyes were angry and he stared at her fiercely.

Chu Zhiye was talking to Mr. Liu, thinking that Fu Guanjue was not good for Chu Xinyu, so he stepped forward and blocked Chu Xinyu and said, "Second Master Fu, what do you want to do?"

Fu Guanjue pursed his lips and clenched his fists. If it weren't for her being a woman, he would have really punched him just now.

When Mr. Liu saw that the atmosphere was wrong, he rushed forward to smooth things over. The misunderstanding between the Housing Hou Mansion and the Duke of E has just subsided. If the quarrel started again at this time, it would be even more troublesome. Moreover, the Housing Housing of Zhongyi is now the future in-laws of the Duke of Rong's Mansion, and both sides of the Ministry of Justice cannot afford to offend.

Fu Guanjue glanced at Chu Xinyu coldly, said nothing, and turned around and left.

Chu Zhiye asked: "What's wrong with you, right?"

Chu Xinyu smiled at him, shook his head and said, "No, by the way, why are you here too?"

Chu Zhiye said: "My mother is worried about you, so she asked me to come and see if there is anything we need to help." As a result, they didn't help with anything. She was accompanied by the Marquis of Peking, and those who tried the case did not dare to do anything to her.

The person who spread the rumors has been found out that the case has been concluded, but the murderer who openly killed witnesses in the prison hall has begun to file a case and is preparing to investigate.

Since the other party wanted Chu Xinyu's life, she had to give a confession to the Ministry of Justice. But she thought that Yuan might collude with an official from the Ministry of Justice. She held some evidence, but she couldn't say it, for fear of being alarmed.

The Ministry of Justice had no one she trusted, so she could only hide some facts. For example, when she first returned to the capital, the carriage was frightened and the carriage the day before yesterday, they were both injured by the same hidden weapon. She did not let the Ministry of Justice know that she had taken these evidences, and she suspected that the hidden weapon in Huang Lian's mind might be the same as the hidden weapon that injured the horse.

The killer who used the Silver Needle was probably the same person as the one who killed her in Puling Temple. As long as she caught this person, she would know who the person who killed Yu'er was.

After giving the confession, I was fine in the Ministry of Justice.

Huang Lian was dead, and her body was in the morgue of the Ministry of Justice. Chu Xinyu gave the Yamato a ingot of silver to find Huang Lian's family and took her back for burial.

After walking out of the Ministry of Justice, it was already sunset, and she stayed inside for the whole afternoon.

"Xinyu!"

Before Chu Xinyu could react, someone suddenly rushed out from the side and hugged her hard, which scared her and Chu Zhiye. He calmed down and saw that it was Yang Qianjun.

Fortunately, when she was in the Ministry of Justice, the doctor who had sprained her left foot had seen it. It was a ligament strain. The doctor rubbed her iron and sprained her and applied her to the sprain ointment he passed down from their family. The pain in her ankle was reduced a lot, and her left foot could barely support her body even if she hit the ground.

After being hugged by Yang Qianjun, Chu Zhiye blocked her again behind her. She only took a slight step back, and the sprained left foot was fine.

"That's great, you're fine." Yang Qianjun was very excited.

"Xiaojun, let go of Xinyu, her foot is injured." Sun Ruoya, who was beside her, reminded.

It turns out that it is not only Yang Qianjun, but also Sun Ruoya and An Qilan.

They also heard about the rumors, but they never believed that it was Chu Xinyu who spread it. Knowing that she was taken back by the Ministry of Justice for interrogation, they made an appointment to go to the Ministry of Justice to see how the situation was and whether she could help.

But when they arrived, there were many people surrounding the lobby of the Ministry of Justice, and they could not squeeze in at all, so they had to let the maid squeeze in to see how the situation was. Later, the maid came out and said that the Marquis of Peking had found a witness to clear Chu Xinyu of suspicion and was now interrogating a middle-aged woman.

When they heard that Chu Xinyu was fine, they all breathed a sigh of relief. When everyone outside the execution hall dispersed, they finally saw Chu Xinyu coming out. Yang Qianjunyi was so excited that she suddenly rushed out and hugged her.

Upon hearing this, Yang Qianjun immediately let her go, "Sorry, I don't know."

As she said that, she lowered her head and saw Chu Xinyu's left foot tied with white gauze and a light yellow ointment oozing out. She blamed herself for her impulse just now.

Chu Xinyu smiled and joked: "I'm fine, but if you force a little more, you won't know."

Seeing that she could make jokes, Yang Qianjun felt relieved. Then she remembered something, and she said angrily: "The Fu family is too much. If you don't find out clearly, you will be wronged. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is Miss Fu Er who is not as good as you. Why do you need to spread such rumors to slander her? It is obviously because she is undecisive and has made a lifelong concession with a man. She still wants to establish a chastity archway after becoming a bitch. I bah!"

"Xiaojun, pay attention to the occasion. Is this the place where we discuss this issue?" An Qilan looked around vigilantly, afraid that someone would hear Yang Qianjun's words and would be bad for the Fu family.

Fortunately, all the onlookers dispersed. There were no one outside the imperial hall except the two yamen and them, but they were still afraid that the passers-by would hear it.

"Okay, it's not convenient to talk here, it's getting dark. You are a girl's house, it's not safe to go home too late. If you have anything to say, I'll say something else." Chu Zhiye interrupted at this time, "By the way, have you come by carriage? If I don't have me, I'll take you home first."

They also knew that it was not suitable for talking here, so they agreed with Chu Zhiye's statement, but the three of them came in the carriage of Yang's mansion. After thanking Chu Zhiye for his kindness, they didn't have to bother him and asked him to send Chu Xinyu back.

"We'll go to your mansion to see you tomorrow." An Qilan pulled Chu Xinyu and said.

Chu Xinyu said, "One other day, my foot is injured. I am afraid that the greeting will not be done. When my foot is well, I will post a post to invite you to the mansion to play."

An Qilan nodded, "It's OK."

Until they got on the carriage, Chu Zhiye's carriage drove over, but saw his servant jumping out of the shaft and walking over and saying, "Young Master, there is something to do in the yard, I want you to go back."

Chu Zhiye was working in the Hanlin Academy. When the second wife sent someone to find him, she was busy with work, but Chu Xinyu couldn't ignore it, so she took a long time off.

Chu Xinyu didn't want him to be embarrassed, so he said, "You go back to work, I'll go back by myself."

Chu Zhiye said: "How can this work? You can go back by carriage, and I will walk back to the yard."

At this time, a low-key and gorgeous carriage drove over, the curtain was lifted up, and a handsome face was revealed, and he said to Chu Xinyu: "Come here."

Chu Xinyu looked at him and was slightly stunned. After recording the confession, he didn't see him when he came out, and thought he had left.

"Is this unreasonable?" Chu Zhiye frowned. Although they are recognized as unmarried couples, it would be criticized for their own silence in a carriage.

Chu Xinyu also felt the same way. She still remembered the path down the mountain on Longhua Temple that day. She wanted to take his carriage. How did he go back to her at that time?

Men and women will not be close to each other!

Why did he just a few days ago, but he ignored these etiquettes and sneaked into her boudoir in the middle of the night, so she couldn't see through this man.

Chu Zhiye thought for a while and said, "You should go back in my carriage."

"In this way, you will waste a lot of time when you go back to Hanlin Academy." After all, your legs are hard to match with four hooves and four wheels.

“…”

"Anyway, he and I were married, so it doesn't matter if we criticize you." Chu Xinyu said: "It's safe to go back in his carriage."

Thinking that she was almost injured by someone in the punishment hall with a hidden weapon, Chu Zhiye was convinced by her words, so he agreed to let Lin Chenyao take her back.

After getting on the carriage, Chu Xinyu sat in a window, a little far away from him. She sat very upright, while Lin Chenyao put his hands on his chest and leaned against the wall of the carriage and closed his eyes to rest.

The man in green was driving the carriage. He looked handsome but very serious. Seeing that he was dressed like a guard, this was the first time she saw Lin Chenyao having a guard beside him. The first time she saw that the boy appeared beside him was not like a Shutong, and Uncle Jin didn't look like a guard. She had seen him get along with Lin Chenyao, and Lin Chenyao respected him very much.

As the carriage left, a woman covered in a veil walked out in a teahouse on the opposite road, her exposed eyes were filled with coldness.

"Girl, Tao Xin is afraid that someone will find her and she has left the city." A petite woman dressed as a maid stood behind her and said.

"I inform her not to come back for the time being." After saying that, she got on the carriage parked outside the door.

The maid followed up, and when the curtain fell, the masked woman took off her veil and revealed a delicate and beautiful face. She was May Zhilan.

When in Cining Palace, Lin Chenyao pulled Chu Xinyu away in front of her. She sat at the empress dowager for a while before leaving. She met Duke E's entourage outside the palace gate. She knew that Duke E had entered the palace to see the emperor, and knew that they had found out that the rumors were spread by Chu Xinyu, so she went to Juxing Pavilion to change her clothes and took two subordinates to sit in the teahouse opposite the Ministry of Justice.

She originally wanted to see Chu Xinyu being taken to the Ministry of Justice by a yamen from the Ministry of Justice, but she didn't expect that Lin Chenyao was taking her here, and she kept holding her hand and not put it.

He hadn't shaken her hand yet, but she had let her see him hold another woman's hand twice. She couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with his memory of him in his previous life. Didn't he be deeply in love with Fu Yinghua? Or was her closeness made him tired of himself and turned to fall in love with another girl?

But why is this girl Chu Xinyu? She was the one who killed herself indirectly in the previous life? She couldn't let her ruin her affairs again in this life.

So, she let Tao Xin get into the onlookers and find an opportunity to attack Chu Xinyu. If she succeeded in assassination this time, she would reduce a lot of trouble, and a tiny silver needle would be discovered in that kind of occasion.

But Chu Xinyu was so lucky that the stupid woman was actually crazy at this time and rushed over to let Chu Xinyu escape. Chu Xinyu almost disappeared in this world. When she heard the reason for Tao Xin’s mistake, she almost turned over the table!

Chu Xinyu's suspicion was cleared. Lin Chenyao helped her find a witness. So, when Lin Chenyao entered the palace, he knew about this. He pulled Chu Xinyu out in Cining Palace to delay time so that Chu Xinyu would suffer less when he went to the Ministry of Justice?

Finally, they simply accompanied her. Besides, they appeared together, which not only dispelled the interrogator in the punishment hall's intention of torture Chu Xinyu to confess, but also clarified the rumors that he and himself were in love with each other and made up for life.

Lin Chenyao, your move is so cruel. Not only did you clear your relationship with her, but you also cut off their promises. Are you taking revenge on me for being close to you?

"Girl, where are we going now?"

Xu Zhilan thought about it and then reported an address. She could not give Lin Chenyao to Chu Xinyu like this. She must do something to win back Lin Chenyao's heart.

She wants to tell him that she likes him!

Let’s talk about Chu Xinyu getting on the carriage and driving for a while, she hesitated for a long time, and finally she said first: “Thank you for your help today.”

If he hadn't caught the rumor-related person in advance and found evidence to prove that she was innocent, I'm afraid she wouldn't have left the Ministry of Justice so easily today.

Lin Chenyao opened his eyes, looked at her, moved his eyes down, landed on her left ankle with white gauze, and said lightly: "Who have you offended?"

"What?" Chu Xinyu didn't expect him to ask this question. He didn't react for a while, but he quickly responded: "After coming back, I had a quarrel with Tong Zhen and Gu Qing'er, and later it was Princess Jing'an. But today I saw that the killer who killed Huang Lian was using hidden weapons, so I thought of the people who have been chasing me in the past two years."

“Continue?”

"Yes." Chu Xinyu looked at him and said carefully: "Are you afraid? Your fiancée may not be like ordinary ladies, and people will pop up and assassinate anytime and anywhere."

She didn't know why she said this. She might want to see where Lin Chenyao would be good to her. If he was afraid of getting into trouble, she would carefully consider the relationship between the two, whether to let the marriage continue or just use each other's relationship.
