Chapter 4195: Hitting the Wall Everywhere

Jin Lu's pale face, her eyes were red, and her expression was full of pleading and despair.

After all, they grew up together, and Li Zhongci felt uncomfortable seeing her like this.

"Sister Jin, please stop crying and wash your face." Li Zhongci ordered the maid to fetch water. After washing her, he brought her hot water and refreshments and let her eat some. "About aunt, she did something wrong indeed. With Princess Qingzhi’s violent temper, if my aunt dares to hurt Princess Rouzhen like this, she will beat her to death with a whip, and you won’t be able to reason with her.”

Jin Lu was not in the mood to eat, and said in a hoarse voice: "I know, I know, my mother did something wrong, very wrong. I don't expect the princess to spare her. But what happened to her being locked up? I don’t know either. I just ask Brother Zhong Ci to go see her and take care of her, so that she doesn’t suffer in there..."

As she said this, she started crying again, "If I didn't still miss my mother inside, I really wouldn't be able to survive..."

Li Zhongci hurriedly said: "Okay, I will go to the Ministry of Punishment to clear things up and see her."

"Really, brother Zhongci?" Jin Lu raised her teary eyes, her face full of surprise and expectation.

Li Zhongci nodded: "I'll go in the afternoon, you can go back and take care of yourself."

In the afternoon, he freshened up, changed into an indigo gown, and went out in the carriage.

In the past, he used to ride in a sedan chair or ride a horse when going out.

Now that the Li family is in decline, he has also changed from a high-ranking prince-in-law to a commoner. He no longer wants to ride a horse in public, making people point at him and ridicule him.

He went to the Criminal Department first.

The Li family also has three or two acquaintances in the Ministry of Justice, but now the Li family is not what it used to be, and the person they are provoking is Princess Rouzhen. How can those acquaintances be willing to take the initiative to help before it is too late to avoid them.

Even if Li Zhongci brought money and tried to bribe him, he still couldn't even see anyone.

As soon as he was born, he was surrounded by stars. As he grew up, his appearance and talents were all top-notch. After he became a princess, people held him up wherever he went and called him Mr. Li.

Nowadays, a fallen phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken.

Only then did I feel the warmth and warmth of human kindness.

What used to be a very simple thing is now impossible to ask for!

Li Zhongci encountered obstacles at every turn in the Ministry of Punishment. In the end, he turned out to be a jailer who was jealous of money. He was only willing to speak after receiving fifty taels of silver from him.

"Second Master Li, you won't see anyone here. It's better to go and ask the rightful master. If the rightful master speaks, what person can't be seen?"

This sentence awakened Li Zhongci.

If he wants to see Aunt Jin, he can only ask Princess Rouzhen.

Otherwise, no one in the entire Punishment Department would open the door for him.

The twists and turns were so deep that he felt infinitely tired.

But thinking about the promise he made to Jinlu and the longing for his daughter Niuniu, he still cheered up and plucked up the courage to come to the door of the princess's house again.

Looking at the familiar door, he felt mixed emotions.

The door that once gave him freedom was now tightly closed to him.

His wife and daughter, who were once close to each other, are now almost strangers to him.

Li Zhongci was stunned for a moment, put away his thoughts, and stepped forward to explain his purpose to the guards.

The guard naturally recognized him and wanted to refuse directly, but saw an exquisite and gorgeous little carriage parked at the door leisurely.

The Jin Yiwei commanded Xiaozhuang to ride a horse and protect him personally, which showed how much the people in the carriage were favored by the emperor.

Li Zhongci's eyes lit up when he saw the carriage.

A nun took out the pretty little girl from the carriage.
