Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 387 Obsession

Kong Wencai was brought to Situ Jin. Situ Jin looked at him coldly and said nothing.

He knelt on the ground and looked at Situ Jin without hesitation. Situ Jin stared at him indifferently and said, "You have killed so many secret guards, what do you have to say?"

Kong Wencai sneered without thinking: "Your Highness, do you have any evidence? If you don't have any evidence, don't accuse me casually. Didn't your Highness steal the gold?"

Situ Jin did not argue with him about this matter, and instead said, "Do you still think that Muying is your relative?"

When Situ Jin asked this question, not only Kong Wencai but also Mu Ying was startled. He looked at Situ Jin blankly.

Kong Wencai's eyes trembled slightly: "We are from the same mother. My mother fought to the death to give birth to us. If you hadn't taken him to Jincheng, our brothers would have met you."

Situ Jin said expressionlessly: "But from Gu's point of view, you don't regard him as your relative at all!"

"Why don't I regard him as a relative? He and I are relatives!" Kong Wencai answered without thinking.

Situ Jin sneered and said: "You used his similar appearance to deceive Su Chong's trust and get Su Chong involved in the poppy case, thus pouring this basin of dirty water on Muying. This is what you call a relative." Love? Do you know that if you hadn't protected him alone, he would probably be a corpse now."

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't want to harm him, I just wanted to..."

He suddenly stopped talking and looked at the person in front of him with some resentment. He was forcing him to tell the truth on purpose.

"What do you just want? You want him to know the truth about the destruction of the Kong family, so that he can betray Gu and use his advantage in the East Palace to kill Gu. If he is not willing, you can use your appearance to replace him. Enter the East Palace, and then kill Gu. Once the prince dies, the East Palace will change its owner. Do you think the third prince is more suitable for the position of prince than Gu? As long as he becomes the prince and emperor, he can replace your Kong family. Overturn the verdict?"

"When the Kong family reverses the case, you can come out of the darkness and stand upright in this world. But have you ever thought about how widely involved the case your father committed back then is. What you are doing now is just repeating what your father did. Once this matter is made public, not only you, but also Muying will be implicated. I am afraid that before the third prince ascends the throne, your brothers will become the dead souls of the sword."

"Even if the third prince succeeds and sits in the position of the lord of the world, will he dare to overturn your father's case? Your father committed something that is expressly prohibited by the law. If he overturns the case for you, he will be against the law. Against all the ministers in the court, he will risk his backbone to give you a stepping stone to overturn the verdict?"

His words surprised Kong Wencai. The "stepping stone" sentence stabbed his heart hard. He only wanted revenge, but he never put Muying in danger by doing so. He was overwhelmed by hatred. He lost his mind and only wanted revenge. He never felt that he was being used by others.

Situ Jin saw the subtle changes in his expression and said coldly: "If Gu is not wrong, once you use Muying's identity to assassinate Gu, Situ Yu will hand you over immediately and tell Father that you are By the way, Mu Ying will also be mentioned about his identity, saying that it was your brother who assassinated the current prince for revenge. You were the one who brought up the previous case of Huang Jin to slander me. Since he is in charge of the Criminal Department, he will know the evidence against him. Erase it, and all the evidence of guilt will point to you. Once Gu dies and he has made great achievements, the courtiers will support him as the prince, and if you know everything about him, he will definitely kill you."

"Haha, His Highness the Crown Prince has such a rich imagination. It would be a pity not to read books. What a pity... You think that just by saying a few unnecessary words in front of me, you can make me betray the master who raised me since I was a child. Just like the shadow, even if he is in prison, he is not willing to betray you. How can I be the kind of person who seeks glory from the Lord?"

Under Kong Wencai's seemingly indifferent expression were the white fingertips clenched in his sleeves.

"Situ Yu had indeed hidden himself well before, hanging around brothels and gambling houses. Everyone thought he was a prince who had nothing to do. If this incident hadn't happened, no one would have known how ambitious he was."

Kong Wencai bit his lower lip. He was finally sure that Situ Jin was not testing him, but had already investigated everything they planned. From this point of view, since he told the outside world that he was under house arrest, the emperor had begun to distrust him. , but behind the scenes, the confinement was just for outsiders to see. He did not lose the emperor's trust. It seemed that everything the third prince did did not really drive a wedge between the emperor and the prince.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Everything obviously points to you, but why did the emperor not only not doubt you, but also allow you to investigate this matter secretly?"

Situ Jin said coldly: "Since you showed your face when you assassinated us last time, I started to investigate Mu Ying's life experience. From my father's mouth, I learned that Mrs. Kong was pregnant with twins, and she knew Knowing that she was about to die soon, she chose to kill herself by setting fire to herself, just to hide the fact that she had given birth to a child."

"And Su Zhong's confession mentioned that the person behind the scenes is Mu Ying. This is obviously your frame. In order to induce you to show up, I had to let Situ Yu take Mu Ying away."

"And you found out that Su Cheng was following Su Zhong, and you were worried that the secret of your tea would be discovered, so you planned to seriously injure Su Cheng, steal the gold, and put the blame on Gu. This was just to divert the attention of the East Palace and make your plan smoother. conduct."

"I see, it turns out you were prepared!" Kong Wencai said helplessly.

Situ Jin said in a deep voice: "If you can make up for your mistakes, I will plead for you in front of my father. If you persist in your stubbornness..."

Facing Situ Jin's warning, Kong Wencai curled up his lips with a hint of irony: "I'm afraid it won't be as His Highness wishes."

"What do you mean?" Situ Jin vaguely felt a bit of crisis.

Kong Wencai knelt straight and said coldly: "I think your Highness also knows that General Xiao is rushing back to the capital from Jincheng. Your Highness has been busy dealing with the Third Highness. How long has it been since you heard from General Xiao?"

Looking at Situ Jin's increasingly livid face, Kong Wencai was filled with joy at this moment and said with a deep smile: "Your Highness is so busy with himself that he focused all his energy on finding evidence to clear himself of the crime, but he forgot that you still have a person. Has your uncle lost any news?"

"You...what happened to General Xiao?" Hearing this, the shadow figure on the side angrily stepped forward and grabbed the skirt of his chest, dragged him up from the ground, and asked sternly.
