Chapter 5 — I Thought I Was A Serious Person, But I Didn't Know That's Not The Truth
"Miss Ha is the victim. You are a witness. Of course, if you want to interrogate you, you must be interrogated. If you don't speak, I will escort you to Dai Ly Temple. Once there, it will be difficult to avoid torture."
Co Thieu Vu kindly reminded: "Miss Lam, your corrupt father also had his tongue cut out at Dai Ly Temple in the past because of lying." Lam Thu Yen was scared to the point of weakness, looking at Ta Thuy An for help: "Master Marquis, what should I do——" Co Thieu Vu laughed: "Brother Ta, if she has to ask for your advice about anything, I can hardly help but suspect that you are a co-conspirator."
"You and I are both military generals. If you make a mistake, you must be punished according to military regulations."
Co Thieu Vu oppressed Ta Thuy An two levels, this was saying harsh words in front of him - if Ta Thuy An was involved in this matter, he would be punished according to military law. The slightest move by the military means they will kill you, not a joke. Ta Thuy An had beads of sweat on her forehead: "Lam Thu Yen, why are you looking at me! At this point, you still have the habit of calculating internal affairs! Quickly tell the truth!" Lam Thu Yen shivered and finally opened her mouth: "I... I actually didn't see anything, I didn't see anything!"
"Really?"
"Really! Marshal, I didn't see anything. What I said just now was just my guess. In fact, I didn't see anything! I thought if your cousin was missing for a day and a night, she would definitely fall into the hands of bandits!"
"These are all my guesses! Marquis was also deceived by me! I have nothing to do with the bandits!"
"So you admit that everything just now was slander?"
Lam Thu Yen's face was full of horror and unwillingness. Finally, she bowed her head and gritted her teeth and said: "... Yes, I slandered Ha Linh Thu. It was all slandered by me! Is that okay? Are you satisfied?" She sounded sulky, but no one cared. Co Thieu Vu turned to the Crown Prince: "Your Highness, please decide." Hearing that it was the Crown Prince who decided life and death, Lam Thu Yen begged in fear: "His Royal Highness, it was me who lied, but I absolutely do not collude with mountain bandits, I wouldn't dare even give me ten courage!" The Crown Prince said: "Why are you kneeling to me? The person you slandered and humiliated is not me." Lam Thu Yen was stunned, immediately turned to me, and bowed her head: "Sister, sister! It's all because of your jealousy, there are no bandits at all, I just said it to scare you, sorry, sorry!" She kept banging her head. The Crown Prince didn't tell her to stop, and I also didn't tell her to stop. The baby in her belly cheered: 【Father Co is so good, he's protecting mom and Tieu Bao!】 【His Royal Highness is also so good, knowing mom is wronged! I'm demanding justice for my mother!】 I confirmed that I was not insulted by the bandits, and the rock in my heart disappeared. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Ta Thuy An suddenly said:
"Your Highness, although Ha Linh Thu did not conspire with the mountain bandits, it is true that she is pregnant!"
"Otherwise, today she wouldn't be hiding here to secretly drink rose soup!"
"What does rose soup prove?"
"If you can't prove anything, then drink it. If there is no child in your belly, this rose soup won't harm you."
Ta Thuy An's eyes were cruel as if he wanted to push me to death. I unconsciously rubbed my belly a few times, which made him even more certain that I was pregnant. But I don't understand, why does he hate me so much, just because of Lam Thu Yen? But this decree of marriage was clearly requested by Ta Thuy An himself, and he came teasing me, not forcing me. Being hated by Ta Thuy An for no reason is like being bitten by an evil dog and not letting go. Seeing that I didn't dare to drink, Ta Thuy An immediately bit back: even if he wasn't a mountain bandit, he was still another crook!" The Crown Prince looked at my belly: "Ha Linh Thu, are you really pregnant?" I unconsciously looked towards Co Thieu Vu. Co Thieu Vu helped me solve the truth about the mountain bandits, but he had no right to interfere in this matter.
"Is there anywhere I can help Miss Ha?" He asked kindly.
But that look, besides goodwill, had no other complicated emotions. I can't help but waver. 【Was it really Marshal Co that day? If it's really him, his personality should have admitted it.】 The two children were also a bit confused: 【Could it be that Co's father doesn't dare to admit it because his mother is currently Ta Thuy An's fiancee?】 【Bad father, too shy, not brave at all!】 Whatever the reason, if he doesn't admit it, I absolutely cannot admit that I'm pregnant. 【Children, is there any way for the doctor to not be able to feel your pulse?】
