Chapter 530: Dog Biting Dog

From the testimony she had written down whereby she admitted to the minor crime but kept silent on the major crime, Zhou Xiangrong had been planning for herself the moment she opened her eyes and understood her situation.

Su Ying didn’t think that there was anything wrong with thinking for herself, but hurting innocent people to achieve her goals was not something she would allow.

This time, if Moon’s family hadn’t taken the initiative to look for Su Ying, thereby allowing her to discover the problem, Su Ying would have fallen into the trap Zhou Xiangrong had meticulously set up.

Su Ying’s expression became increasingly ominous as she thought of this.

Even though something like this has happened, we can’t close the Women’s Academy.”

Xiao Jin patted her shoulder gently and said, “I’ve already thought of this. When the time comes, the people will regain their trust in you.”

Su Ymg nodded slightly. There were still some things that had to be done.

Zhou Xiangrong committed a major felony and was locked up in the cell that was the most difficult to escape from.

The tendons in her arms and legs had been cut by Su Ying. After she was thrown into prison, she could only sit on the ground full of c.o.c.kroaches and rats like a puppet with broken arms and legs.

Zhou Xiangrong couldn’t accept this. She simply couldn’t accept this!

From the moment she was locked up, she had been reflecting on which of her steps had gone wrong. In the end, she came to the conclusion that she had been too anxious and underestimated her opponent’s ability.

Su Ying was indeed a formidable opponent.

If Zhou Xiangrong was given a little more time…

Footsteps suddenly rang out outside the cell. Soon, the cell door was opened. Zhou Xiangrong raised her eyelids and saw a person in a black cloak walking in. Even though Zhou Xiangrong couldn’t see her face, she knew that the visitor was Su Ying.

I ve been thinking about what exactly I did wrong to make the Empress hate me so much. It’s fine if I’m made the scapegoat for the academy, but I’m already in such a sorry state. How can Your Imperial Highness still have the heart to come and ridicule me?”

Su Ying lowered her eyes to look at her. “Xiao s.h.i.+hang couldn’t sit still after he found out that you were captured. He tried everything he could to mobilize his connections to meet you.”

Zhou Xiangrong gave a mocking laugh. “A businessman’s mind is quite flexible, but he lacks the ruthlessness and boldness of a politician. It’s no wonder he can’t be presented in public.”

“I agreed to his request”

Zhou Xiangrong suddenly raised her head and looked at Su Ying. Her icy eyes became ferocious.

“Su Ying!”

“Have a good time catching up with him.” Su Ying turned around and walked out after saying that.

“I don’t want to see him. I don’t want to see him!” Zhou Xiangrong roared at Su Ying’s back profile.

When the cell door was pushed open again, Xiao s.h.i.+hang rushed in with an anxious expression.

He looked at Zhou Xiangrong, who was sitting on the ground motionlessly with blood all over her body, and anxiously went forward. “Rong’er, how are you? Don’t be afraid. I will definitely think of a way to get you out.”

Who told you to come here? Get out! Get out immediately!” Zhou Xiangrong roared furiously at Xiao s.h.i.+hang.

Xiao s.h.i.+hang shook his head and said, “Rong’er, no matter what price I have to pay, I will beg the Empress to spare your life.”

Zhou Xiangrong laughed disdainfully when she saw how anxious he was. Initially, Xiao s.h.i.+hang was her last trump card. She was certain that Su Ying wouldn’t take her life immediately. She had to remain alive until the charges were pinned on her and made public. The day she was finally sentenced would be the best chance for her to escape.

Earlier, she had already made all the plans. She had hidden her subordinates by Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s side. As long as nothing happened to Xiao s.h.i.+hang, she still had one last trump card. However, now that Xiao s.h.i.+hang had delivered himself to the door, the people around him would definitely not be able to escape either.

Zhou Xiangrong’s entire body seemed to have been drained of its essence, and her whole body drooped. She looked at the affectionate Xiao s.h.i.+hang and laughed scornfully.

“Xiao s.h.i.+hang, are you afraid that I’ll tell them that you want to stage a rebellion?”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s expression changed slightly, but he still reb.u.t.ted vehemently, “What are you talking about, Rong’er? I want to save you because I don’t want to see you die!”

The sneer on Zhou Xiangrong’s face intensified. “You’re still talking to me about love at a time like this? Alright then. Since neither of us can escape, then let’s die together.”

Xiao s.h.i.+hang’s concerned eyes gradually darkened, and the anxiety on his face also vanished totally. “You revealed everything?”

“What do you think?” Zhou Xiangrong replied with a smirk.

When she first met Xiao s.h.i.+hang, she could tell that he was ambitious and had done many things because of it. The reason he trusted her was not because of love, but because he saw something he could make use of in her.

If he didn’t think that she was useful, why would he help her?

“You came to see me because you wanted to know if I told them everything about you. Then let me tell you, Xiao s.h.i.+hang. If I die, you can forget about staying alive!”

Slap!

Xiao s.h.i.+hang gave Zhou Xiangrong a tight slap on the face, and his face turned ferocious. “b.i.t.c.h! b.i.t.c.h!”

Su Ymg stood outside the cell door with a frosty face. Watching a dog biting a dog was indeed interesting.

The thing was, she didn’t know if Prince Jiangning was aware of what Xiao

s.h.i.+hang was doing behind his back.

“Don’t give them a chance to spill the beans. Arrest Xiao s.h.i.+hang and say that

Zhou Xiangrong confessed to everything.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Xiao Jin had said that Xiao s.h.i.+hang was an extremely smart person. He was even taught by a famous teacher when he was young. He was an ambitious and smart child. However, after Prince Jiangning got into trouble time and again, Xiao s.h.i.+hang resolutely chose to go into business. This was something that no one expected.

When Xiao Jin was young, he was also smart and became a thorn in Xiao

s.h.i.+hang’s side. Xiao s.h.i.+hang secretly gave him a lot of trouble.

Xiao Jin said that he didn’t believe that such a character would be willing to serve under other people for the rest of his life.

After Xiao s.h.i.+hang learned that Zhou Xiangrong had been captured, he immediately looked for the officials and aristocratic families he had secretly maintained connections with and asked them to step forward. When this news reached Xiao Jin’s ears, he made a bold guess that Xiao s.h.i.+hang had greater ambitions.

Tonight, he made a plan to let Xiao s.h.i.+hang see Zhou Xiangrong, just to prove whether his guess was correct.

To his surprise, the two of them fell out with each other so quickly and exposed themselves so readily.

It was only on the second day after Xiao s.h.i.+hang was arrested that the news reached Prince Jiangning’s ears. The main reason was that no one knew where Prince Jiangning was the night before. It was only when he returned to the residence the next morning that the caretaker informed him about the matter.

Why was he arrested for no reason?” Prince Jiangning was stunned. “What crime did he commit?”

“Your servant doesn’t know either. Why don’t Your Highness enter the palace and ask His Majesty in person?”

Prince Jiangning instinctively wanted to object, but this concerned his own son and also his money tree. He still had to find out what his son had done.

“Go and prepare the carriage. I’m going to the palace.”

Prince Jiangning waited outside the Imperial study for two hours before finally getting to meet Xiao Jin.

“Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Xiao Jin raised his eyes to look at Prince Jiangning and saw that his lower eyelids were particularly swollen. It was obvious that he had a wild time last night.

“Prince Uncle, please rise.”

Prince Jiangning straightened up and hesitated for a moment before saying,

Your Majesty, I heard that my unfilial son was arrested. May I know what crime that brat has committed? Your Majesty shouldn’t take it to heart. After all, he is just a businessman. He only thinks about money and doesn’t know how to manage things well.”

Xiao Jin slowly sat up straight and crossed his arms at his abdomen.. He gazed upon Prince Jiangning and said, “Do you think attempting to rebel is considered a serious crime?”
