Chapter 71: Scapegoat Zhou Mengchen

Chapter 71                                                                                                                             �

In the main hall of the prince's uterus.

The prince of Chu looked at the person in front of him coldly and said, "So, my good fourth brother and my good uncle, have you not found it? Zhou Mengchen is gone, and Li Yunzhen is not found either."

Liu Jin and others immediately knelt down and said, "Please forgive me for your crime."

The prince of Chu pretended to be ordinary and said, "What is my forgiveness? What is the big deal we have done? Where did we pass it to the court? Go and ask the court whether to forgive the crime or not?"

As soon as the prince of Chu said this, the people below were trembling in their hearts.

Some of the people here are the original team of the Prince of Chu, and some don’t know what they are, but now they are being pulled onto the pirate ship by the Prince of Chu.

If the truth is really revealed, the prince of Chu will not be able to escape death, let alone these people.

There is one counting one, it would be great if it could be executed without lingchi.

This is an ending that no one of them wants to accept.

Liu Jin immediately stepped out and said, "Please rest assured that these people must be still in the mansion, and no one of them can escape. I have another plan."

The prince of Chu said, "Let me tell me."

Liu Jin said: "Why don't your highness push this matter to Zhou Mengchen? Just say that Zhou Mengchen set fire to Tianlun Pavilion, which led to the unfortunate death of the former king."

After hearing this, the prince of Chu said, "Yes, that's how he reported the letter to the governor's yamen. Didn't Zhou Mengchen say that he was kind to him? Now is the time to repay his kindness."

This is the real prince of the King of Chu. Although he is affectionate, it does not prevent him from taking himself as the center. He always seeks back hundreds or thousands of times what others owe him, and does not feel wrong. He will not feel at ease when hurting others unscrupulously.

To a certain extent, the prince of the Chu King and the Chu King are worthy of being father and son.

Zhou Mengchen didn't know yet that he now had a new hat on his head. He was still scared at this moment.

In the back garden, in the corner of a rockery.

Zhou Mengchen had just relaxed his hungry heart.

The person you meet is not someone else, but King Wugang.

In the darkness, Zhou Mengchen did not dare to light the lamp, nor could he see it clearly, so he could only hear it. Zhou Mengchen asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

The King of Wugang seemed to be holding a child, and said in a daze, "Why am I here? Why am I here?"

The King of Wugang himself doesn't know how to answer this question.

He just saw Xiao Si drowsy, so he took him out and wanted to send him back to bed.

But the child's sleepiness is a very inexplicable thing. He was already sleepy when he had time, but when he moved, he became energetic. Naturally, he was unwilling to go to bed obediently. The King of Wugang was unwilling to go back immediately, and he felt uncomfortable in a dilemma between the father and son.

He said to himself: "Give their family a little more time, it's not too late for me to go back. Maybe the father and son will talk to each other and the matter will be over."

But what he never expected was that someone in the Chu Palace would attack him. Fortunately, there were two companions beside King Wugang, who fought to the death to block the people.

King Wugang was obsessed with calligraphy and painting, but he was not a fool.

This is nothing else. This is the person in the Chu Palace who dares to attack him. There are definitely no outsiders.

Either the King of Chu or the Prince of Chu.

The King of Wugang thought that these two people were both suspicious. What kind of person was he the eldest brother? The King of Wugang is not unaware of it. Today, the prince of the King of Chu is a sarcastic person. The King of Wugang did not dare to show up, so he could only take Xiaosi from the King of Chu family to hide everywhere.

Then he met the prince's men again and fought. The King of Wugang was cut off and lost his entourage. He only took this one child and hid in a mess in the back garden. He met Zhou Mengchen unexpectedly.

After learning about the experience of King Wugang, Zhou Mengchen hesitated for a moment and said, "To be honest, I have other ideas when I come to the King of Chu's mansion this time." Then he told everything about Li Yunzhen.

After hearing this, the King of Wugang felt a little relieved in his tone and said, "Is this right?" He never believed that a person like the Prince of Chu would do good things outside. He then said, "That means, is this person next to you Miss Li?"

Li Yunzhen did not dare to speak much, and grabbed Zhou Mengchen's sleeve with one hand and hid behind Zhou Mengchen. Zhou Mengchen slowly patted Li Yunzhen's hand and said, "That's it." Then he told everything about the plan of the prince of Chu that Li Yunzhen knew.

"No wonder." Zhou Mengchen couldn't see the face of Wugang King. He could only hear the tone even lower. The voice of Wugang King came secretly and said, "My elder brother and those nephews are probably gone now."

The King of Wugang didn't know how to express his feelings for a moment. Although the King of Chu was not a thing, the Prince of Chu was not a thing. He just said who was more hateful, but he couldn't say it. Finally, he condensed into a sentence and said: "Cause and effect cycle, retribution is unhappy."

For a father, is there a more tragic ending to be killed by his own son?

I just remembered that the King of Chu was full of evil, but now I was also suffering from it.

Zhou Mengchen said: "Prince, you know more about the Chu Palace. Where do you think we can escape from?"

The King of Wugang smiled bitterly and said, "How do I know? I always walk through the main entrance when I go out."

It makes sense, leaving Zhou Mengchen speechless.

This is the palace of the King of Chu, the home of the King of Wugang. The King of Wugang can naturally go to the main entrance openly. Who cares about where there are dog holes?

When the two were speechless, they suddenly felt that the light was wrong. The light that came out from somewhere entered this remote corner. Although the distance was very far, this light still slightly improved the visibility here. Zhou Mengchen glanced at the light and found that it was a big fire. He silently calculated the distance and immediately said, "Is that Tianlun Pavilion?"

Zhou Mengchen frowned and said, "How could Tianlun Pavilion burn?"

As mentioned earlier, the main structure of Tianlun Pavilion is actually made of big bamboo, and it can be used to vent water inside, falling from outside the pavilion to form a rain curtain. If such a house can catch a fire, it will be a ghost.

The King of Wugang said, "What a big fire, I guess I have been burned to death."

King Wugang added accent to the word "I", and Zhou Mengchen instantly understood, what is better than a fire to destroy corpses?

Zhou Mengchen took a deep breath and felt the coldness was so cool that the autumn night was already a little cool. It was even more heartbreaking, but it was the current situation.

Death was so close to him. Almost within reach.

However, the King of Wugang seemed to have not given up on attacking Zhou Mengchen and said, "If we guessed wrongly, you are now a court criminal who set fire to kill the King of Chu."

"How could it be?" Li Yunzhen said in surprise: "The King of Chu was obviously killed by the prince?"

The King of Wugang said: "Right and wrong are all based on one's mouth, right and wrong are just positions. Now who will listen to you to distinguish?"

Zhou Mengchen saw sweat on his forehead and his mouth was dry.

I almost forgot to breathe for a moment, and there was a hint of regret in my heart.

Before he came to the Chu Palace, he had already foresawed danger. But the danger he foresaw was mostly his own danger, and in his opinion the worst was death. But now the situation was even more serious than he imagined, because if the prince of the Chu Prince succeeded, then he would not die alone.

There is also Zhou’s mother and even many villagers in Zhoujia Village.

The crime of murdering the prince is absolutely nothing more than just one.

He can and is willing to use his life to be responsible for his own actions, but he is unwilling and cannot use other people's lives to pay for his own actions. Then no matter how moral his behavior is, it will be the same. This does not conform to Zhou Mengchen's principle of being a human being and doing things.

Now that he was not considering Zhou, he was caught in such a situation. He did not regret coming to save Li Yunzhen, but he regretted being worried about Li Yunzhen, but did not see any clues about the prince of the King of Chu. At this moment, Zhou Mengchen thought about it carefully, in fact, the behavior of the prince of the King of Chu was not without any flaws.

But before the incident happened, who would have thought that the prince of Chu would do such a crazy thing?

"Hurry, look around and capture Zhou Mengchen, a villain who was murdered by the prince." A voice from afar came, as if responding to the inference of King Wugang. Although the distance was very far away, the voice was like a gossip, looming, and it was impossible to hear it if you didn't calm down and listen. But at this moment, it seemed like thunder in the ears of Zhou Mengchen and others.

Zhou Mengchen said: "Prince, can you turn the situation around?"

The King of Wugang said: "What can I do? This true voice is in the hands of the governor and the Marquis of Fengcheng. The Prince of Chu also has to pass their level. If we can see one of the two people in advance, we will naturally be able to reverse the situation. However, now that we can't even go out of the palace, how can we see two people? Moreover, once the two believe my good nephew's words, it will probably be useless even if we meet them."

Zhou Mengchen understood.

Once Governor Che and the Marquis of Fengcheng confirmed the statement of the Crown Prince of Chu, they endorsed the Crown Prince of Chu. Then they turned the situation around afterwards, and they were first held accountable and asked about their crime of misunderstanding. It should be noted that this is not a trivial matter, but involves the prince's life. Once it is made a mistake, the court's punishment is definitely not small.

The Marquis of Fengcheng may have their ancestors, but Governor Che may have to face early retirement.

Of course, maybe the two of them are selfless people, they don’t care about personal gains and losses, and they are dedicated to justice. But Zhou Mengchen doesn’t dare to think so now. After all, they know people but not their hearts. Zhou Mengchen doesn’t have much contact with the two people, so who knows what kind of people they are?
