Chapter 336 Twins?
Chapter 336 Twins?
The three teams of law enforcement officers in embroidered uniforms looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, all of them with troubled expressions.
All of those faces were filled with hesitation and uneasiness, and no one had the intention of showing up in front of the prince to seek credit.
Seeing this situation, the purple-clothed envoy Yan Xin could not help but hold his forehead with his hand and sighed secretly in his heart, wondering what happened to the third team today?
Did he decide to embarrass himself in front of everyone today?
Even so, after all, he still had to take care of his subordinates, so Yan Xin had to shamelessly say to Chu Ci: "How about Princess Yi Xin, just pick one at random?"
Chu Ci had no idea what the people in Team 3 were hesitating about. In her opinion, it was her who was going to report to the Crown Prince, not them. Was it necessary for them to put on such a miserable look as if they were half dead?
Chu Ci is a somewhat rebellious person.
So, she raised her chin slightly, her eyes were as firm as torches, and she pointed at the person hiding behind her teammates, raised her voice and said loudly: "You, it's you!"
The embroidered law enforcement officer who was pointed out by Chu Ci felt so miserable! It was as if a huge stone weighing a thousand pounds was pressing on his heart, so heavy that he could hardly breathe.
However, as law enforcement officers, their greatest strength is that they obey orders. This is their creed engraved in their bones and their unshirkable duty.
Therefore, even if he was reluctant, he knew that he had to focus on the mission at this moment. Then he straightened his body, forced himself to be energetic, and quickly responded: "Yes, I obey your command!"
It was just because he was so reluctant that he hesitated a little.
Unexpectedly, because of this delay, fate played a trick on him and he was brought directly before the emperor by the prince.
"Crown Prince..." The emperor was about to ask about the situation when he glanced at the person the crown prince brought with him. He saw that the person looked exactly like the second prince who had just been brought out of Wenyuan Pavilion. The emperor's expression suddenly changed and he said in disbelief, "This person? Are you also investigating the second prince's affairs?"
However, when Xiangpin was pregnant, many imperial doctors took turns to check her pulse, but none of them diagnosed that she was pregnant with twins!
Likewise, the prince had not expected that the law enforcer in embroidered clothes, whom he had brought back in a hurry to testify, had such an unexpected hidden secret.
Chu Ci first looked at the handsome young man in the imperial study with a complicated expression, and then looked seriously at the dark and strong law enforcement officer in embroidered clothes beside him.
Then Chu Ci began to shrink back, wishing he could turn into a mole and burrow into the ground to escape this tense atmosphere.
Chu Ci thought his little evasive move was secretive, but he didn't know that everyone present could see it clearly.
Especially the emperor, he felt a splitting headache when he saw Chu Ci.
There was no way. Every time Chu Ci saw him, he would never give up until he took something away.
Look, the emperor frowned and stared at the prince, signaling with his eyes: "Why did you bring this trouble in?"
The prince shook his head slightly, with an imperceptible smile on his lips, and replied with his eyes: "Father, you should know her ability. She knows a lot of key information in this matter. If we want to find out the truth, we can't do without her participation."
The emperor and the prince communicated with their eye contact, and that glance seemed to contain countless secrets that were difficult for others to understand.
However, this silent exchange made the atmosphere in the imperial study room extremely depressing. The heavy atmosphere seemed to have turned into a heavy lead block, pressing everyone present to the point of being unable to breathe.
Especially the law enforcer in embroidered clothes at the bottom, beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead, and the whole person looked as if he had just been fished out of the water. His clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck tightly to his body, making him feel extremely uncomfortable and embarrassed.
Finally, he could no longer bear the huge pressure and knelt on the ground with a plop. His voice trembled like a leaf falling in the wind, and he cried, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, my background is absolutely innocent. My family has been farming for generations, and we have always been honest and have never done anything wrong. I hope Your Majesty can see clearly!"
When Chu Ci saw this, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something bad was going to happen. Then he knew that something bad was going to happen.
As expected, the emperor looked at the person kneeling below him, as if this scene was reminding him that it was not enough for him to be fooled once, and he might be fooled again by those with ill intentions.
In an instant, the hostility in his eyes burst out like a surging tide, and his gloomy face seemed to be able to drip water. The air around him seemed to be frozen by this chill, which made people shudder.
Chu Ci was feeling uneasy, thinking to himself, "Will the emperor be so angry that he kills the man without caring about anything? If that happens, it will be really hard to deal with."
So Chu Ci quietly moved to the side of the prince, lowered his voice, and said nervously: "Your Highness, would you like to persuade him?"
Emperor: Is he a tyrant in Chu Ci's eyes?
Thinking of this, the emperor's inner anger was like a volcano about to erupt and could no longer be suppressed.
There was a "slap" sound, and the emperor slammed the table fiercely, shouting angrily: "Shut up."
The embroidered-robed law enforcer was so frightened that he immediately fell silent, and his body began to tremble even more violently.
But the person being reprimanded, Chu Ci, simply shrank her neck, then quickly returned to her original position, with a well-behaved and innocent expression on her face, as if the person who had been making small movements before was not her.
The emperor stared at Chu Ci, suppressed his anger and took deep breaths again and again. He kept reminding himself in his heart that Chu Ci was the key to his becoming a sage monarch and he must not punish him.
However, he turned around and shouted sternly: "Come here, take these... these two people away and interrogate them strictly."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the well-trained guards guarding the imperial study jumped on the person the emperor mentioned quickly and accurately like a tiger pouncing on its prey.
Just as he was about to leave, the prince hesitated for a moment, and finally said solemnly: "Keep a close watch on them. If there is any mistake between the two of them, you will be beheaded!"
Chu Ci witnessed the prince's majesty for the first time, and his heart trembled violently.
She had always thought that the prince was always so gentle and generous, but she never expected that at this critical moment, he would be able to show such a sharp and decisive side.
Sure enough, in this deep palace, everyone has a side hidden in the dark and unknown to the public. Even the prince, who always gives people a kind impression, has such awe-inspiring majesty.
If it weren’t for the plug-in, Chu Ci might really not be able to handle it.
No, she had to find a way to leave the imperial study. The atmosphere here was too depressing, and every moment she stayed there was like a heavy burden weighing on her heart.
She had to find a suitable excuse as soon as possible to escape from this dangerous place.
Chu Ci's eyes were rolling around, and it was clear what he was planning. The emperor was shocked when he saw this. "Prince, tell me what you found out."
