Chapter 356 Can't Prove His Innocent
Chapter 356 Can't Prove His Innocent
"Lord Shen, are you accusing me of making a mistake in my judgment?" Ji Chilian's eyes darkened, and the faint smile on his face disappeared completely.
As he put the tea bowl down heavily, an invisible sense of oppression spread in the air.
"My brother would never do such a thing. I can guarantee it with my life. If my brother is really the murderer, I am willing to be punished along with my brother!" Shen Yanqing's every word was powerful.
Yi Qianhuan was deeply shocked by what Shen Yanqing said.
At this time, the sound of footsteps came from behind Yi Qianhuan.
Turning her head and looking behind her, Yi Qianhuan found that Shen Yaosi had come behind her at some point.
Shen Yaosi's expression was filled with astonishment, and it was obvious that Shen Yanqing's words just now had a great impact on him.
However, Shen Yaosi's hesitation only lasted for a moment. He soon turned cold and strode into the front hall.
"Ji Chi Lian, I know you want to target me. In that case, you should stop making things difficult for my family." Shen Yaosi raised his chin and said arrogantly.
Shen Yanqing's original calmness disappeared completely the moment he saw Shen Yaosi appear: "Who asked you to come out? Didn't I ask someone to let you go first? When you return home, your father will naturally protect you..."
Shen Yaosi remained calm: "Brother, I didn't kill anyone. It is said that a person of integrity is not afraid of his own shadow. The body of the killer inexplicably appeared in my room. I am the victim. Why should I be afraid?"
The veins on Yi Qianhuan's forehead twitched wildly twice.
After hearing this, she finally figured out what was going on.
She wondered why Ji Chilian took the body away last night.
It turned out that the man took the body away in order to link that person's death to Shen Yaosi.
This man actually framed Shen Yaosi so blatantly here!
"Miss, looking at this situation, whose side should we stand on?" Liuli caught up and asked in a low voice.
"Shen Yaosi has Prime Minister Shen behind him, and my brother has to count on Prime Minister Shen to help speak for him in the court..." Yi Qianhuan quickly figured it out.
Prime Minister Shen cannot fall, and her current relationship with Ji Chilian is not suitable for challenging him in public.
This man really gave her a difficult problem!
Thoughts turned quickly, and before the three people in the room completely tore their faces apart, Yi Qianhuan stepped into the hall: "Du Gong, the two Lords Shen, both said that harmony is the most valuable. I think there is something fishy about what happened today. Why don't you listen to me first."
The eyes of the three people in the hall were attracted by Yi Qianhuan.
She was wearing a smoky purple dress today, with a golden belt around her waist that made her waist look even more slender. She looked like a water lily blooming in the mist, and her smile was enough to captivate people.
"Greetings to the Lord God of the Nation." Everyone, including Ji Chilian, saluted Yi Qianhuan.
"Everyone, don't be restrained. Just treat this place as your home..." Yi Qianhuan raised his hand to indicate that there was no need to be polite, and then he saw Ji Chilian walking towards him quickly.
Ji Chilian's eyes were full of longing, and she naturally grabbed the hand that Yi Qianhuan extended: "Why are you here? This matter also involves the spies of Xijiang Kingdom. I didn't want to disturb you."
Seeing Ji Chilian sighing seriously at the end of his speech, Yi Qianhuan couldn't help but take a breath.
If not, she was really worried that she would not be able to help but slap this man in the face.
What is this bastard pretending for?
Not to mention that the man's affectionate look was an act. If he really didn't want to disturb her, he shouldn't have come to the National God's Mansion to arrest people!
So, Yi Qianhuan held Ji Chilian's hand with one hand.
Ji Chilian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yi Qianhuan with some surprise.
Yi Qianhuan's red lips curled deeper, and her fingers tightened inch by inch, wishing she could crush the palm of the man in front of her!
A strong sense of oppression and pain came over him, and the muscles on Ji Chilian's face twitched slightly, but he didn't say a word.
"Since the incident happened in my national palace, I cannot remain immune to it. Lord Shen, I wonder what exactly happened? I just heard that this matter is related to the corpse and the spies of Xijiang Kingdom?" Yi Qianhuan looked at Shen Yanqing.
Shen Yanqing bowed to Yi Qianhuan with a respectful attitude: "Your Excellency, I suddenly received news today that a body suddenly appeared in my third brother Shen Yaosi's room. And according to the investigation of the Northern Pacification Department, this body looks very much like a spy trained by the Western Jiang Kingdom. But Your Excellency, my third brother is an upright person and would never do such a treasonous and rebellious thing..."
"Master Shen, what you said is a bit too arbitrary." Ji Chilian's expression was normal, and she interrupted Shen Yanqing's words, "It is said that you can know a person's face but not his heart. What's more, the last drugstore explosion was also related to Master Shen. After all, it was Master Shen's carriage that exploded at that time. If there is anyone who is most likely to hide the explosives in the carriage, isn't that person Master Shen himself?"
“Ji Chilian, stop slandering me here! Don’t forget that my brother was also seriously injured in the last explosion. If it weren’t for the treatment of the Lord and Little Gods, my third brother would have died! Even if he has found his life now, his arm has been seriously injured and he might even become a disabled person!”
When Shen Yanqing said this, his eyes were red. "My third brother should have been a man of great achievements. He would not hurt others, and would not joke with his own body and future!"
Yi Qianhuan saw that Shen Yanqing's eyes were red and almost bleeding, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
She had never thought that the relationship between Prime Minister Shen's sons was so good.
You know, Prime Minister Shen's three sons have almost no contact in the court, and they don't interact in front of outsiders on weekdays. Therefore, many people say that there is no harmony between Prime Minister Shen's three sons and the adopted son Ji Chilian.
But now it seems that apart from the fact that Ji Chilian, the adopted son, is really annoying, the relationship between Shen Yanqing and Shen Yaosi is not as bad as the rumors say.
Unfortunately, Ji Chilian didn't buy it: "If Lord Xiao Shen really betrayed Yunzhao Kingdom and turned to join the arms of Xijiang Kingdom, then wouldn't it be more effective to show his loyalty by crippling an arm?"
"Ji Chi Lian, you can doubt me, but you can't humiliate me with such words. All the Dragon Shadow Guards were summoned back to the palace yesterday. I stayed in the National God's Palace last night. Everyone in the National God's Palace can prove that I did not go out. This corpse came out of nowhere. Someone must have framed me!" Shen Yaosi said coldly, with veins throbbing on his forehead.
"Liuli, is what Master Shen said true?" Yi Qianhuan looked at Liuli.
Liuli nodded like a chick pecking at rice. She bowed hastily and said, "My dear Miss, everything that Xiaoshen said is true. I have just explained this to the Governor, but the Governor said that Xiaoshen has other subordinates besides the Dragon Shadow Guards, which does not prove that Xiaoshen is innocent."
Yi Qianhuan fell into deep thought.
This time, what she cared about was no longer whether Shen Yaosi was innocent or not.
All of the Dragon Shadow Guards around Shen Yaosi yesterday were summoned back to the palace?
Completely unaware of this, Yi Qianhuan felt acutely uneasy and couldn't help but glance at Ji Chilian.
Beifusi and Longyingwei are in opposition to each other. Could it be that Ji Chilian has ulterior motives and wants to frame Shen Yaosi in order to delay Longyingwei's next move?
