Chapter 7: Seeing Again再見

"What evidence"

“什麽證據？”

"I can only reveal it in the presence of the Crown Prince himself."

“這自然要見到太子殿下本人我才能說。”

"Bring her in!"

“帶進去！”

When they met again, he had shed his gentle and scholarly demeanor. Now, he stood before me with a jade crown on his head, dressed in black-patterned brocade, his gaze sharp, his face resolute, and his expression cold and unyielding, like a decisive ruler.

再見時他已經褪去了那層溫潤如玉的書生氣質，此時在我眼前的他頭戴玉冠，着一身黑紋的錦衣，眼神淩厲，面色剛毅，神情冷然，宛如一個殺伐果決的王者。

I sought him to save my life, for I had no one to turn to. He was my greatest hope at this moment. The second time we met, I pleaded with him for mercy and to save my life.

為了活命我找到了他，因為我只能找他，他是我此時最大的希望。第二次相見時我是有求于他，求他可憐，求他救命。

As she walked down the long path, she managed to wipe away the grime from her face, revealing her stunning beauty. Dressed as a simple maid, her exquisite features were concealed.

在進入那道長長的道路時，她想辦法擦去了臉上的污垢，露出了那副傾國傾城的容顏。

丫環的素衣包裹着傾世的絕美容顏。

Her exceptional intelligence and unparalleled beauty were why her aunt chose him back then.

絕頂聰明的頭腦配上傾世絕倫的容顏才是姑姑當年選中他的原因。

"I heard you have evidence to present to me," a cold voice sounded.

“聽說你要向我舉證？”清冷的聲音響起。

"Your Highness, please save my life!" I knelt before him, my body bowed, but my eyes fixed on Zhang Guoying.

“太子殿下，請您救命！”我朝他跪下，身子跪下，眼睛卻盯着張國英。

"Who are you" Gazing at the stunning beauty before him, Zhang Guoying found her somewhat familiar.

“你是？“瞧着眼前女子的盛世美顏，張國英好像有點眼熟。

"I am Cui Yu! Don't you remember me from the Imperial Academy I'm Cui Yu!"

“我是崔玉呀？太子可還記得京師學堂，我就是京師學堂裏的那個崔玉呀！”

"Cui Yu!" Instantly, Zhang Guoying's expression darkened, recognizing the irritating girl from the Imperial Academy.

“崔玉！”瞬間，張國英黑下臉來，就是那個在京師學堂的牛皮糖。

Seeing the Crown Prince's reaction, I quickly stood up. I stated clearly, "The Minister of Justice, Su Wei, has embezzled ten thousand taels of gold, a thousand acres of fertile land, and ten mansions, distributed across Xianyang, Jingyang, Xingping, and outside the capital by the Wei River... The Assistant Minister of Punishments, Li Shi…"

見了太子如此神色，我馬上站起來，然後我清聲道：“大理寺卿蘇衛貪污黃金萬兩，良田千傾，豪宅十座，分別分落于京城的鹹陽，泾陽、興平，京城外的渭水……，刑部侍郎李侍……。”

"How can you be so well-informed about this matter"

“你怎麽會對此事如此清楚？”

"The Cui family has remained strong for a century for a reason. If Your Highness is willing to help me save my maid, I am prepared to lend the full strength of my family to assist you."

“百年世家的崔家能屹立百年而不倒，不是沒有原因的。若太子願意幫我救下我的丫頭，我願意傾全族之力相助殿下。”

"How many people do you need"

“你需要多少人？”

"Fifty will enough!"

“五十人足矣！”

"Very well." He saw the deal was more than fair. Only a fool would pass up such a profitable and risk-free transaction.

“好。“他這舉手之勞的買賣并不虧，有賺不賠的買賣只有傻子才不做。

However, when I arrived, I could not save her. My only option was to avenge her.

趕到時，我卻沒有能救回我的心兒，也只有為她報仇了。

That time marked the first in my life that my hands were stained with the blood of others, yet my own tears flowed.

那一次，是我人生第一次手上染了別人的血，卻流着我自己的淚。
