Chapter 182 Take your dog eyes back!
Yang You lay on the ground and cried loudly. The fear in his heart was beyond words. He almost wanted to curse Ma Yuan, who was so ignorant of his own life.
This idiot actually dared to say such outrageous words in front of the soldiers! Isn't this going to push his entire family into the fire pit?
"Unfair?" Zhang Zhiyi took two steps forward. "It wasn't just me who heard about this. So did Governor Su's runners, and even my garrison troops who just won a victory! So, should we have them come and confront you?"
“This…this…” Yang You was so frightened that his fat body was shaking. The sweat on his face wet the back of his hand. “Your Majesty, this, this is none of my business.”
"It's all because of my ignorant nephew. He's using my name to talk nonsense outside... He's young, and he doesn't quite understand my understanding of the law. This, this is..."
Looking at Yang You's incoherent speech, Zhang Zhiyi's face flashed with disdain, and he snorted coldly, "Young? That's not what Ma Yuan said!"
"That Ma Yuan, in front of all the soldiers, said he'd had 'hundreds' of women! General Yang, your family is really generous! You can arrange so many women for just one child!"
"Where did those women come from? Sir, could you explain this to the prince?"
Yang You suddenly raised his head, his face covered with sweat and oil, which was nauseating to look at.
"Your Highness! There's no such thing! It's true! That guy always likes to exaggerate and sensationalize, but it's all fake! There aren't that many women! It's all fake!"
Zhang Zhiyi's face showed a hint of disgust, and he shouted, "Lower your head!"
I'm not afraid of offending the prince's eyes!
Yang You was so frightened that his courage was broken. He quickly lowered his head and lay on the ground, explaining non-stop, "Your Majesty, please believe me. These things have nothing to do with me!!"
At this time, Shu He was standing in front of the corridor and heard some movement outside the hanging flower door. He turned around and saw Xiao Hei walking in with a man in military uniform.
"Little black."
Shu He saw him about to enter the front hall and stopped him.
"Madam He?" Xiao Hei asked the man behind him to wait for a moment, and then he walked to Shu He and asked, "Madam, is there anything I can do for you?"
"Is this General Zhang's subordinate?"
"Yes. He said General Zhang had given him some instructions, and now that they are done, he has come to report back."
Although Xiao Hei was guarding outside the door, as a bystander, he could see clearly Shu He's status in this yard.
She is a woman who can even be on par with the prince. It is absolutely right to listen to her and obey her!
Shu He nodded, let Xiao Hei go out first, and then he called the soldier over to ask about the situation.
The soldier was Zhang Zhiyi's trusted confidant from Yuancheng, and he had known Shu He for a long time. At this moment, he answered her questions without reservation.
"General Yang, you keep saying this matter has nothing to do with you, but Ma Yuan is your nephew, isn't that right?"
Zhang Zhiyi opened his mouth, pressing harder, "That Ma Yuan used you as a cover to oppress the people and forcibly abduct women. Is this true?"
Yang You looked up and wanted to speak, but Zhang Zhiyi gave him a cold look and he immediately lowered his head.
"I, I don't know..."
"You don't know? You're a soldier in Beisha City, and you're actually unaware of the people's living conditions? You hold great power, commanding all the troops. You should be using that authority to improve the people's well-being, but what have you done? What have you done?"
"You've raped women in the streets, plundered the people's wealth, set up your own prisons, and disregarded human life! Yang You, every one of these things can cost you your life!"
Zhang Zhiyi's voice was like a long sword that had been soaked in ice for countless years. It was sharp and pointed, carrying a strong chill that swept through Yang You's whole body.
He felt like his body was about to freeze!
"Your Majesty! Please be discerning!" Yang You cried, his lips trembling. "Since I took office, I have always fulfilled my duties diligently and have never done anything against the law or morality! Please don't judge me hastily based on Zhang Zhiyi's one-sided statement!"
Yang You is still holding on.
He bet that Zhang Zhiyi had no evidence.
As long as there is no evidence, what he said is one-sided and slanders the court officials! He can submit a memorial to accuse him!
Zhang Zhiyi wanted to say something when Shu He came in with a few cups of tea, a smile on his face.
"Oh, this is General Yang from Beisha City, right? Why are you crying like this? He must have suffered a great injustice!"
Yang You looked up, the flesh on his face twitching uncontrollably from excitement and fear. His face was greasy, mixed with sweat and tears, and it was truly a sight to behold.
Shu He suppressed the nausea in his heart and placed the tray with the tea bowls on the pearwood table in the living room.
Yang You's eyes followed her closely, his gaze a little dazed.
The woman had a beautiful smile and gentle features. When she looked at him, her eyes sparkled; a glance from her was as charming as a thousand words. As she walked, her skirt swayed, her figure swayed, and he couldn't take his eyes off her.
"Yang You! Take your dog eyes back!"
An angry shout rang out, as if countless ice blades were attacking, and the unbearable feeling that had just risen in Yang You's heart disappeared completely.
Turning around, Zhang Zhiyi's face was full of frost, as if he had disturbed his ancestor's grave!
He quickly lowered his head, not daring to offend this guy again.
Baili Moqing asked Zhenli to remove the screen.
His face was also covered with ice and snow. Although he didn't see Yang You's eyes clearly just now, Zhang Zhiyi's attitude said it all.
This Yang You is really bold. He even dares to touch his own people!
And that woman, what is she doing coming in at this time? !
Shu He looked back and saw the four people opposite him. Except for Zhenli who was wearing a mask and his facial expression could not be seen, the others all had very sour faces.
What did Yang You do?
"Everyone calm down. I specially made a few cups of medicinal tea. Let's have a drink first and then we'll talk." Shu He looked at Zhang Zhiyi, his fingers resting on the teacup, hinting at something.
Zhang Zhiyi's brows were filled with confusion, but in just a moment, he knew what she meant.
This means, we're going to give them something to drink with something added to it?
Baili Moqing also saw the interaction between her and Zhang Zhiyi, and his eyes lingered slightly on the tea bowl she brought.
Seeing that Zhang Zhiyi had received her hint, she brought a cup of medicinal tea to Baili Moqing and said, "It's a medicinal tea that nourishes and warms the body. Try it."
Baili Moqing's eyes were slightly stern, and there was something strange in his eyes as he looked at Shu He.
This woman, gave him medicinal tea? Is she crazy?!
Shu He looked at him, and seeing that he didn't move, she took the initiative to open the lid for him and handed it to him.
He was also looking at her. It was the first time they had ever looked into each other's eyes. Her eyes were clear and bright, yet tinged with a hint of cunning, as if she were provoking him.
After a while, he took the teacup from her hand and took a sip without blinking.
Seeing this scene, Zhenli, Beiji, and Zhang Zhiyi almost rushed over.
The smile on Shu He's lips deepened, and his brows softened.
He has some courage!
She turned around, looked at Yang You lying on the ground, and asked, "Sir, are you here to arrest me?"
