Your Majesty, Please Stop Messing Around.

Chapter 274: Committing Suicide Out of Fear of Crime

late at night.

Mitiansi, prison!

The dim light illuminated the cold stone wall, and the surroundings were filled with a nauseating smell of blood that lingered for a long time.

Deep in the prison, in a sealed cell.

The ground was covered with damp straw, and there was a smell of mold mixed with an increasingly rich smell of blood. A embarrassed figure was lying curled up on the ground, motionless.

He was wearing expensive silk brocade clothes, but at the moment it was in tatters and stained with a lot of blood, making him look extremely miserable.

It seemed like an unknown amount of time had passed, but there was a burst of rapid footsteps not far outside the cell.

In the cell, the figure who heard the footsteps trembled and subconsciously shrank back.

"Wenyang!"

The cell door was pushed open and a familiar voice came.

Gao Wenyang, who was lying on the ground, heard this voice, and his body seemed to be stimulated by something. He suddenly raised his head and looked at the door.

Taking advantage of the dim light outside, I saw a familiar figure.

"father……"

Gao Wenyang's voice was trembling, excited, and a bit crying.

"Dad, you, please save me quickly, save me quickly..."

Gao Wenyang spoke in a trembling voice, struggling to get up from the ground. That face that was red, swollen and covered in blood looked extremely hideous and miserable.

The person standing at the door was none other than Gao Boyan, the then Minister of Civil Service, Gao Wenyang's biological father.

When he saw his son being beaten so painfully, Gao Boyan's face suddenly sank.

"Old Zhou Yao, you are so cruel and bullying!"

Gao Boyan sounded angry.

"Dad, get me out quickly... I want revenge, I must take revenge!"

At this moment, seeing his biological father appear, the grievances and anger that had been accumulated all day finally came out at this moment.

He is a dignified son of the Gao family and is considered a prominent person in Beijing. How could he have suffered such humiliation like today?

He was teased by Prince Lin, forced by Zhou Yao to kneel down in front of Zhou Huiguang's funeral hall to admit his mistake, and was humiliated in public.

How can he survive in the capital in the future? !

"I want to kill Zhou Yao, I want him to die with his son... and Lin Jiangnian, I want to make his life worse than death!"

Gao Wenyang's gloomy eyes were full of angry malice. He couldn't swallow this bad breath. He, Gao Wenyang, would not be human unless he avenged this revenge!

Gao Boyan looked at Gao Wenyang who looked so embarrassed and miserable in the cell, and he was filled with anger.

"Don't worry Wenyang, dad will not let them go... dad will definitely take care of them and avenge you!"

Having said this, Gao Boyan walked into the cell and came to Gao Wenyang: "Wenyang, dad has a few things to ask you."

As he spoke, Gao Boyan stared into Gao Wenyang's eyes: "Zhou Huiguang, was it you who killed him?"

"father……"

Hearing this question, Gao Wenyang raised his head suddenly, but met Gao Boyan's serious gaze: "Don't hide it, Dad, tell the truth...Did you kill him, or was it someone who instigated him?"

Gao Wenyang lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Dad, yes, he is the third prince..."

He wanted to continue talking, but Gao Boyan tried to stop him, his eyes were cold: "Did the third prince instigate it?"

Gao Wenyang nodded, with a look of shame on his face: "Without the Third Prince's signal, how could I dare..."

"madness!"

Gao Boyan's eyes were disappointed and he said angrily: "How could you be so confused?"

"But dad, no, it's not you who asked me to be on good terms with the Third Prince on weekdays, and in the future..."

"I asked you to be friends with the Third Prince, not to be cannon fodder for the Third Prince!"

Gao Boyan's eyes were extremely disappointed, and he hated the iron and said: "Use your pig brain and think about it, why did you kill Zhou Huiguang?"

"I, I don't know either..."

Gao Wenyang's face turned pale and he cowardly explained: "The third prince said it was just a drug, but I didn't expect it to be poison..."

"But don't worry, dad, the third prince asked me to do this, and he will never ignore it! I helped him take such a big blame, he will definitely..."

"Shut up!"

Gao Boyan's eyes were extremely cold, and the eyes he looked at his son were full of anger, and he said coldly: "Do you think the third prince will save you?"

Hearing this, Gao Wenyang was suddenly startled, and an ominous premonition emerged in his heart: "Dad, you, what do you mean by this?!"

"This time, even the third prince may not have time to take care of himself!"

Gao Boyan's face was livid and gloomy: "You didn't kill anyone else, but Zhou Yao's son. Zhou Yao is crazy now and wants to risk his life with our Gao family..."

Gao Wenyang's face turned ugly: "Third, how come the third prince doesn't care? I, our Gao family is on his side. I'm helping him this time, why wouldn't he save me?"

"Save? How to save?"

Gao Boyan said coldly: "You personally admitted that you poisoned Zhou Huiguang, and Zhou Yao and Chen Kuaishou of Mi Tiansi heard it with your own ears. How can you quibble?"

"This is a capital crime!"

"Not only is something wrong with you, it will even implicate our entire Gao family!"

Gao Wenyang's face completely lost all color and he collapsed on the ground, "No, it's impossible... I, I am helping the third prince kill people, how could he..."

"Help the third prince kill someone?"

Gao Boyan stared at him coldly: "Where is the evidence?"

"What evidence do you have to prove that it was the third prince who ordered you to kill Zhou Huiguang?"

Gao Wenyang's hands and feet were cold and he was completely frozen in place. His lips were pale and trembling, and his face no longer had the calmness it once had.

"Then, what should we do..."

Gao Wenyang's voice trembled, and he was already at a loss. At this moment, he finally realized that he had caused a big disaster.

Something big is going to happen!

Gao Boyan took a deep breath, staring at Gao Wenyang with a bit of sadness in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "For now, there is only one way."

"What, what way?" Gao Wenyang seemed to have grabbed the last straw.

"Wenyang, you have caused a big disaster this time. Not only can I not save you, but it may even implicate the entire Gao family... At this point, there is only one way to go."

Speaking of this, Gao Boyan looked at Gao Wenyang in front of him and said in a low voice: "I can only wrong you."

Gao Wenyang was stunned, staring at his father's eyes blankly. From his father's eyes, he felt a little bad.

"Dad, what do you mean by that?"

"You admitted that you poisoned Zhou Huiguang, and no one can save you..."

"Even if you confess the third prince, you can't clear the fact that you murdered Zhou Huiguang, and you will even offend the third prince, implicate our Gao family, and bring disaster to the Gao family!"

"Instead of that, it's better... this time, let the third prince remember our Gao family's kindness and owe us a huge favor."

Gao Boyan's eyes showed a bit of sadness: "But, I have to wrong you, Gao Wenyang..."

Gao Wenyang was stunned in the same place. Even if he was stupid, he realized something at this moment.

Father's words, is he going to... give up on him? !

This, this...

Instantly, Gao Wenyang was cold all over, trembling: "Dad, dad, you, you... you can't do this..."

"Dad, dad, I don't want to die... you, you save me..."

"Don't..."

"..."

Early morning.

Frost invaded the streets of the capital.

At daybreak, shops in the streets and alleys of the prosperous area of ​​Beijing opened one after another. The steaming buns shop, the noodle shop with a rich aroma, and the teahouse that was almost open all morning gathered many people from all walks of life in the city.

Everyone gathered in groups of three or four, eating breakfast and chatting about some trivial matters in the city.

What happened in the Zhou family yesterday had already been heard by many people after a whole night of news transmission.

"Have you heard? A big thing happened in the Zhou family yesterday. It was so lively!"

"I heard it too... I heard that the real murderer who killed Mr. Zhou of the Zhou family was Gao Wenyang of the Gao family. It's incredible!"

"Gao Wenyang and Zhou Huiguang have been good friends for many years. I didn't expect him to do such a thing... I heard that Gao Wenyang was forced by Mr. Zhou to kowtow in front of the mourning hall yesterday!"

"But why would Gao Wenyang kill Zhou Huiguang? Could it be that the prince of Lin deliberately framed him?"

"I heard that Gao Wenyang was just a scapegoat. Someone was behind him, The purpose is to frame the Prince of Lin! "

"Hiss..."

In the teahouse, someone took a breath of cold air and said in surprise: "There are still people who dare to kill and frame the Prince of Lin? Who is so bold?"

"Who else can it be? How many people in our capital have a grudge against the Prince of Lin? How many people of prominent status can there be?"

"Brother, tell me in detail?"

In the teahouse, several people's eyes fell on an inconspicuous young man sitting by the window. The young man glanced at the people present, looked around mysteriously, and then whispered: "Who else can it be, the third prince!"

When these words came out, many people present took a breath of cold air.

They have heard that the third prince and the Prince of Lin have some conflicts, but no one dared to say it so openly.

It's okay for you to scold the Prince of Lin. After all, the power of the Prince of Lin's Mansion is in Linzhou and can't come to the capital. But you dare to say that the third prince... doesn't want to mix in the capital!

But thinking about it carefully, it seems to make some sense.

"I heard that the third prince was behind the Gao family. This time, Gao Wenyang killed Zhou Huiguang because the third prince instructed him to frame the prince of Lin..."

The young man by the window seemed to know a lot of inside information and shared it with everyone in a low voice.

"But I didn't expect that Gao Wenyang was not up to the task and accidentally let it slip, and it was heard by Lord Zhou and Chen Kuishou of Mi Tiansi..."

"I heard that the prince of Lin was assassinated outside the city when he entered the capital not long ago, and the third prince hired someone behind it..."

"The third prince wanted to assassinate the prince of Lin to provoke the relationship between the court and the prince of Lin, so as to take the opportunity to reap the benefits..."

"..."

In the early morning, more and more people gathered in the teahouse, and these news quickly ignited the gossip of everyone present.

The third prince of the dynasty killed someone and framed the prince of Lin. This news is explosive!

Eat melons!

Just as everyone was talking about it and the news was getting more and more intense. The instigator of the incident, the young man by the window, had disappeared quietly, hiding his merits and fame.

At the same time, in many places in Beijing, the same drama was played out at almost the same time.

...

The cold wind was still howling.

Chen Changqing, dressed in a black robe, stepped into the Mi Tiansi.

He was busy for most of the day yesterday, and was busy until the middle of the night. He woke up early this morning and rushed to the Mi Tiansi Yamen. He didn't sleep well, but he was in good spirits.

The murderer who poisoned Zhou Huiguang has been arrested. Now he just needs to interrogate Gao Wenyang and interrogate the real mastermind from Gao Wenyang.

"The mastermind behind the scenes..."

Chen Changqing already had a guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to make a conclusion.

He walked towards the back of the Mi Tiansi prison with an expressionless face. Just a few steps away, someone came hurriedly.

"Chen Kuishou, something happened!"

A constable from the Imperial Astronomical Service stepped forward quickly.

"What happened?"

"Gao Wenyang committed suicide in prison!"

Hearing this news, Chen Changqing suddenly raised his head: "What did you say?!"

His face suddenly darkened.

"Today, when we went to the cell to interrogate Gao Wenyang, we found that Gao Wenyang had committed suicide by taking poison!"

Committed suicide by taking poison? !

Chen Changqing's face suddenly changed. Where did the poison come from in the cell? !

Without waiting for his subordinates to continue reporting, he hurried to the prison.

Inside the prison.

Deep inside.

In the dim room, there were already many constables and jailers surrounding it.

When Chen Changqing hurriedly arrived, a path was opened in the crowd.

"The leader!"

Chen Changqing stepped into the cell with a gloomy face. He saw a corpse lying on the floor of the cell. His face was grim, his eyes were wide open, and black blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth. The corpse was cold and had been dead for a long time.

Seeing this scene, Chen Changqing seemed to be filled with anger.

Dead!

Suicide?

Suicide out of fear of punishment?

How is it possible!

This is clearly... destroying the body!

"What's going on?!"

Chen Changqing turned his head suddenly and stared at everyone present: "Where did he get the poison?!"

"Who was guarding the cell last night?"

"Has anyone come in?!"

Chen Changqing's cold and questioning eyes swept across the faces of these people, but saw that everyone was silent and said nothing.

"Why don't you speak?"

Chen Changqing stared at them coldly.

There was a constable next to him who seemed to be hesitant to speak, but in the end he didn't speak.

"You tell me!"

Chen Changqing stared at one of the constables and said coldly: "Who was patrolling last night? Who came in?!"

The constable was frightened and his face turned pale. He shook his head repeatedly: "No, it wasn't me. Yesterday, it was..."

"Chen Changqing!"

Before the constable finished speaking, a voice came from the front. Chen Changqing looked up suddenly, and a figure in black walked slowly in from behind the crowd.

Chen Feiyang!

One of the four guardians of the Secret Heaven Division.

Also Chen Changqing's immediate superior.

Chen Feiyang walked in slowly, glanced at Chen Changqing, and then looked at Gao Wenyang's body behind him: "What happened?"

"Gao Wenyang is dead!"

A jailer beside him whispered: "... He committed suicide!"

"Committed suicide?"

Chen Feiyang looked indifferent, as if he had expected this, "What a pity, it seems that this guy knew that he could not escape the death penalty, so he committed suicide out of fear of punishment in order to avoid physical pain!"

After a pause, Chen Feiyang waved his hand: "Since Gao Wenyang has committed suicide out of fear of punishment, deal with this case as soon as possible and inform the people!"

"Yes."

"Chen Protector!"

Chen Changqing suddenly stared at Chen Feiyang and said in a deep voice: "Gao Wenyang did not commit suicide out of fear of punishment!"

Chen Changqing stared into his eyes and said word by word: "He was poisoned!"
