Chapter 385 My name is Jiang Lifeng, nice to meet you.
The bearded man felt very happy.
Jiang Yingcheng was also very happy.
Things went as smoothly as they expected, and they didn't know what kind of good luck they had!
[Next, as long as the store owner says that Brother Li Feng came to his store two days ago, their lies can be exposed! ]
Jiang Yingcheng swung her little feet, fished out a small biscuit from the secret pocket of her sleeve, and with a "crunch", she bit off a small piece of it.
【Hehehe, this is going really well! 】
In the entire courtroom, Ding Ruihan was the only one left, looking terrified, his face pale as he looked in the direction of the bearded man.
Didn't she send someone to tell him to change his words? !
She had clearly seen her most clever maid leave the government office gate! !
Suddenly, a "Ha" sound came from above her head.
The ending tone is elongated and extremely sarcastic.
It’s Nie Wen.
"Could it be that the person the shopkeeper is talking about is also present today?!"
Ding Ruihan suddenly opened his eyes wide.
No, that's not right!
Something must have happened today that was beyond her plan!
She raised her head with a slight tremor, and just as she was about to signal the bearded man with her eyes to cancel the action, she saw him turn his head back with hesitation, and after carefully scanning Nie Wen's face, his expression suddenly became very excited: "You brat!!"
The bearded man raised his finger and pointed at Jiang Lifeng, his pupils trembling: "How dare you show up here?!"
After saying that, he turned around abruptly and faced the prefect Zou Cailiang, and said loudly: "Sir, it was he who came to my shop late at night that day, saying that he had a treasure that he was eager to sell. Although he covered his face with a hood at the time, but-"
The bearded man said firmly: "Even if this man turned into ashes, I can still recognize him!"
"Those picturesque eyebrows and eyes, that high nose bridge, I have never seen another person like him in my life, I will definitely not make a mistake!!"
Jiang Lifeng's expression froze, and he swallowed back all the sarcastic words in his heart.
He slowly raised his hand and stroked the tip of his nose twice, trying hard to suppress the smile on the corners of his lips.
...Is that so?
Is he just that outstanding?
The toes lightly scratched the ground.
But... even if you said that, he would not admit the crime -
This beard is so annoying~
Zou Cailiang fixed his eyes strangely on the bearded man's face and asked in a more serious tone, "When did he go to your store?"
Ding Ruihan claimed that the box was lost three days ago, and the hairpin was found yesterday, so they only had two days left.
But two days ago...
The bearded man swore, "This thief broke into my store two days ago!"
In order to make the story seem more real and credible, he even prepared a very complete story.
"I was counting the inventory at the time and was startled when someone knocked on the door, so I was deeply impressed!"
The bearded man lowered his head and did not notice the sudden meaningful looks from the people around him. However, after he said that, he did not receive a response from the prefect for a long time.
He raised his head hesitantly: "Master?"
It was also the first time that Zou Cailiang had seen someone tell lies right in his face, and for a moment he didn't know how to start.
The bearded man paused for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Ding Ruihan behind him.
Just one glance and he was so shocked that he almost jumped up: "Girl?"
Ding Ruihan's face couldn't be described as pale anymore. Her face looked as pale as if she had been dead for three days. Cold sweat kept dripping from the ends of her hair and her lips were a faint purple-red...
In short, it's like a female ghost who drowned and suddenly came back to life.
The “ghost girl”’s teeth chattered unconsciously, and a weak voice came out from between her teeth: “Don’t… say anymore…”
Bearded man: “???”
His few words are worth dozens of taels of silver, why can't he say it? !
He whispered: "You can stop talking, but the silver..." But he couldn't lose a penny!
Ding Ruihan looked up woodenly, his eyes lifeless as he looked over. The urge to pry open the other person's head and take a look suddenly overwhelmed his fear: "You——"
"Snapped--"
The gavel rang loudly, accompanied by Zou Cailiang's loud shout: "You two are really brave!"
The bearded man was stunned for a moment.
He thought carefully about what he had just said.
There is no problem, everything is according to the script given by this woman? !
Each line was worth several taels of silver, there was no way he could have remembered it wrong!!
The bearded man looked up blankly: "Sir?"
Zou Cailiang snorted again, his eyes wide open: "The little prince stayed in my house with His Majesty the day before yesterday until nearly midnight before leaving. How did he have time to go to your shop to sell hairpins?!"
There is no curfew in Fengjin County, but local people rarely go out at night. Most shops in the city close very early, not to mention at midnight.
At that time, I'm afraid only places with fireworks would be brightly lit.
The puzzled expression on the bearded man's face suddenly froze, and in just a moment, it turned into fear.
Before I could be surprised by the words "young prince and your majesty", a few big words popped up in my mind -
Is there any witness?!
Oh my god, why would anyone stay with someone so late at night?!
Cold sweat slowly emerged from the corners of his forehead, like beans one after another, and soon formed into strings, dripping down his temples.
Just like what he had just seen on Ding Ruihan's face.
In a trance, he heard his own voice trembling: "W-what?"
At the same time, Ding Ruihan also said sharply: "What?!"
She seemed to have briefly forgotten the fear of her conspiracy being exposed, and all her attention was focused on the key words that the bearded man ignored: "My Lord, what the Lord said, the young prince is..."
Before Zou Cailiang could reply, the people watching outside the government office started to make a series of "hush" sounds.
"Just now she said that the young prince was her lover, but now she doesn't even know his identity, huh..."
"Don't dare say that. Be careful that she might hold a grudge against you and make you her lover—"
"Is this what it means - if you love him, you should send him to jail?"
The few people who spoke looked at each other and laughed out loud.
The sound of discussions poured into her ears word by word, but failed to arouse any reaction from her. Ding Ruihan seemed to have had all her strength taken away from her. She raised her head with a dull expression and looked at the "Nie Wen" in front of her.
Handsome, cool, and still young, but most importantly...
This person once wanted only to protect her with all his heart and eyes.
“You, you really are…”
Jiang Lifeng lowered his eyes to look at the princess he had once believed in, and slowly curled his lips, revealing a smile that could be considered cruel in her eyes——
"My name is Jiang Lifeng, nice to meet you."
