Chapter 440: Witness Wang Er Ji Yunfei's eyes were dark: "Your Highness, Princess, you still haven't given up? Fine! I'll let Your Highness see someone!" Then Ji Yunfei ordered the guards to go down and soon brought back a man, a young servant dressed as a servant. Wang Er knelt on the ground and said, "My humble self, Wang Er, greets… greets all the adults." Maybe it was his first time in court, and in the presence of so many important people, Wang Er was a little nervous and his palms were sweating. Ji Xuan's eyes flashed with suspicion and her face was gloomy. She didn't understand what Ji Yunfei was up to. Ji Yunfei said in a deep voice: "Tell me, what did you see the night three days ago?" Hearing this, Wang Er raised his head, his expression became frightened, and he spoke with trembling mouth. “Someone…someone’s dead…” "dead?" "Who died? How?"
Wang Er's face turned pale and he stammered, "The young master that the princess brought back from the auction is dead...dead." "How did he die? How did you know?" Wang Er trembled and said, "I am a servant who feeds horses in Mr. Chen's mansion. A few days ago, Mr. Chen's family was driven out by a man named Liu Wen under the command of Her Highness the Princess. He said that Her Highness the Princess wanted to requisition Mr. Chen's mansion as a temporary residence." "The official did not dare to resist due to the status of the princess, so he had to move to another house. Although the official's family was driven out, we servants were kept to serve." Wang Er swallowed nervously and continued, "Three days ago, Her Royal Highness brought back a fairy-like boy. Originally, this matter was not a big deal for me, so I went to the stable to feed the horses as usual. Until it got dark, I unexpectedly heard a noise at the back door." "I thought there were thieves in the mansion, so I quietly went forward, but I saw two guards carrying a man sneaking to the back door. In the moonlight, I could see the face of the man being carried. It was the young master that Her Royal Highness brought back." "At that time, I also heard the two people whispering that the young master had a hot temper, crying and making a fuss, and refused to drink toasts, so he bit Her Royal Highness, and Her Royal Highness strangled him to death in a rage, and then ordered them to bury the body somewhere randomly." Speaking of this, Wang Er was almost crying, his face turned pale. "I was terrified at the time. I was very scared afterwards and wanted to report it to the police, but when I thought about the identity of Her Royal Highness, it was useless to report it. I thought it was better to have less trouble than more, so as to avoid getting into trouble." "The next day, my mother was seriously ill, so I went back home. The next day, when I went to the street to buy medicine, I heard about the body in Qingfeng Lake. From a distance, I heard that the princess strangled someone. I thought about what happened that night and knew something bad had happened." "After that, I was so scared that I hurried back home. I didn't dare to go back to the mansion again, for fear that Her Highness would kill me to silence me after she knew what happened to me." When Ji Huashang heard this, her black eyes narrowed slightly and she asked in a cold voice: "Then how dare you come out to testify now?" Wang Er glanced at Ji Huashang cautiously and said timidly, "Since I found out what happened that night, I have been worried and uneasy all day. I have had nightmares for several days. I dreamed that the young master wanted me to redress his grievances." "I was scared and felt guilty, and finally... I heard that the young master's family lived in Xiangyun Inn, so I..." Wang Er secretly glanced at everyone, and they already knew what was going to happen next. After hearing what Wang Er said, Ji Yunfei's face turned gloomy and he said to Ji Xuan angrily. "Your Highness, what else do you have to say now?" There are witnesses and evidence, no matter how much you argue, it's useless! Seeing that things had come to this, Ji Xuan's sinister eyes flashed with anger: "Even if this princess killed someone, so what?" (End of this chapter)
