Chapter 392 Prove your innocence
Ding Ping continued his cold words: "Recently, there have been rumors that the Fourth Prince has colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country. In fact, he is planning to use Northern Yan to ascend to the throne."
As a result, after the topic was passed on by the two of them, everyone, including the half-drunk and half-awake young master of the noble family, began to whisper to each other.
The second prince and the third prince frowned as they listened.
They had not expected such a stabbing today.
They have been unable to figure out for several days the matter of their fourth brother's treasonous behavior.
They hated Beiyan for treating them like that, but their fourth brother actually collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.
Just by looking at the reactions of the two princes, Jiang Yue understood why Miss Zeng had invited so many noble families today.
This is going to roast her over the fire!
"You two are singing the same tune, which is clearly slander." Lin Guo reached for his knife with one hand and pulled it out, but he took it back when Jiang Yue saw him.
Mu Chengfeng reached behind him, but didn't find the knife. He just stared back.
"We are just reminding the Second and Third Princes. Why are you so excited about something that didn't happen?"
"Excited? If someone slandered you for treason, you would have been furious! What crime should you be charged with for maliciously slandering the generals of the dynasty?" Mu Heng's eyes flashed, and Mu Chengfeng raised his head higher.
"Why, did I say anything wrong? Do you dare to say that Jiang Yue hasn't been in frequent contact with the Fourth Prince recently?"
His father is the prime minister of the dynasty, would he be afraid of an unknown person?
Xue Wen was ready to fight, and he could no longer hold back his fists: "Our general was appointed by His Majesty..."
"Xue Wen!" Jiang Yue stopped him with one sentence, fearing that Xue Wen would reveal that she was continuing to investigate the case.
After all, everyone outside thought that the case was over and they were just waiting for His Majesty to behead the Fourth Prince in public.
In fact, Xue Wen is not that stupid.
Jiang Yue didn't say anything because she was observing.
From beginning to end, Miss Zeng never stopped it.
Mu Chengfeng and Ding Ping were simply trying to smooth things over, because how could these two people know her whereabouts clearly?
Jiang Yue began to prove herself:
"You have just heard about these men in black. They are the Fourth Prince's men. They are resentful of me for capturing the Northern Yan spy and joining forces to bring the Fourth Prince to justice, so they want to assassinate me!"
She felt lucky in her heart that he was also the Fourth Prince.
She was not afraid of being falsely accused of being the Fourth Prince's man, but if she was falsely accused of being Xiao Jingtian's man, it would not be so easy for her to prove herself.
While Jiang Yue said this, she was also observing everyone's reactions.
Most people suddenly realized what was happening, and the Second Prince and the Third Prince once again felt ashamed of their Fourth Brother.
Mu Chengfeng and Ding Ping remained skeptical, and Zeng Xueer looked as panicked as before.
Jiang Yue looked around, but Grand Tutor Zeng did not appear during the entire process.
"Captain Ding, have you ever seen this general frequently going in and out of the Ministry of Justice?" She had only been there three times in total.
"Everyone is spreading it." Ding Ping's eyes flickered, and finally his gaze fell on the group of young masters.
Jiang Yue looked over and asked, "Did you see it?"
The young masters were stunned and shook their heads at the same time to indicate that they did not see it.
Jiang Yue guessed the truth as soon as she saw everyone's reactions.
If she ignores it today, it will surely be confirmed that her frequent contacts with the Fourth Prince are a sign of disloyalty, and someone in the dark will make a big fuss about it.
"The first time I entered the Ministry of Justice was to interrogate two spies from Northern Yan. Your Majesty was there that time, and Minister Wen can testify for me."
"The second time, this general was interrogating the enemy general of the Great Jin Dynasty, Wu Yan. Minister Wen can also testify."
She remembered that time when the Fourth Prince asked her to look for Zeng Xueer. She thought that this matter was also spread by Zeng Xueer.
When the noble families heard Jiang Yue's self-testimony, they began to whisper to each other again.
"Captain Ding, you can't say that."
"General Jiang frequently goes in and out of prison? It must be for official business. Master Mu and Captain Ding, please stop talking nonsense."
"General Jiang is close to His Highness the Fourth Prince? Where did you hear that? We know that the young general fought ten enemies alone to protect Lindu City."
"..."
After hearing this, Mu Chengfeng and Ding Ping's expressions changed again and again.
Jiang Yue listened to everyone's discussion and continued:
"The third time was yesterday. This general's visit to the Ministry of Justice is a permanent matter. Minister Wen can also prove this."
Jiang Yue said this and looked at Zeng Xueer.
"Miss Zeng Er can also testify for me."
Zeng Xueer was not in a good mood. Her face was pale, as if she was frightened by what had just happened.
She moved her lips slightly, she wanted to say that it was better not to do such a thing that would end one's life.
"Yes, Xue'er can testify. It's a misunderstanding, all misunderstandings. Everyone, today is Xue'er's birthday party, please stop slandering General Jiang."
The expressions of Wu Fei and the other four people just changed.
The Second Prince clapped his hands together, applauding Jiang Yue's self-affirmation and saying:
"Slander can lead to criticism at best and ruin someone's life at worst. It is unacceptable. Third brother, what do you think?"
"An apology should be made for such slander!" The third prince has always been fair and honest, and at the same time he thought of his fourth brother.
The stain on the royal family is unacceptable. I hope he is wrongly accused.
"Did you hear that? Apologize." The second prince echoed. Mu Chengfeng and Ding Ping failed to frame them, and they did not dare to offend the two princes, so they had to apologize.
"General Jiang, I'm really sorry. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with us." Mu Chengfeng felt a pain on his face and he glanced at Miss Zeng unconsciously, wanting to see her reaction, but he didn't get the response he expected.
"What cousin Mu said is exactly what I want to say." Ding Ping agreed.
The second prince and the third prince really regretted coming to attend Zeng Xueer's birthday party today.
After shaking his head and sighing, he left.
Jiang Yue proved her innocence and left with Wu Fei and the other three.
Zeng Xueer stared blankly at Jiang Yue's departing back, not knowing what went wrong.
Mu Chengfeng and Ding Ping lost face today and left in disgrace.
Zeng Xueer clenched her fists and her expression began to tense.
Why, why did it turn out like this?
After everyone left, General Zeng appeared.
He looked at the dead bodies on the ground with a terrifyingly gloomy expression.
"Xue'er, how do you do things?"
"Dad, I don't know how many people she killed. In the blink of an eye, the person is dead, dead."
"It's almost confirmed that she is the Fourth Prince of Beiyan's woman."
Zeng Guangren stared at a corpse.
"What did she just say?"
"She said that these men in black were obviously the Fourth Prince's men. They were resentful of her for capturing the Northern Yan spy and joining forces to bring the Fourth Prince to justice, so they wanted to assassinate her. She also asked me to testify."
After hearing this, Zeng Guangren only said four words:
"It would be better to die."
