When Ling Muer saw Shangguan Shaochen, she had already been imprisoned in the prison.
Even the emperor came, but he was carried.
Behind the emperor was the red-eyed Xiaoyao Wang Qin Yuheng, and the sixth prince Qin Ruochen who didn't know how to describe his facial expressions.
"Your Majesty, Mu'er did not kill Concubine Yi. When Mu'er came to the harem, Concubine Yi had already been killed. Your Majesty, please investigate!"
Without looking at other people, Ling Mu'er knelt down in front of the emperor, neither humble nor overbearing, neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, and did not show the slightest bit of fear because of being imprisoned.
The emperor waved his hand and signaled the eunuch to help him up, and someone immediately carried the dragon chair.
The emperor sat on the chair, looked up and down carefully around Ling Muer, left and right, and after a while, he said, "Bring it in."
Soon, a guard brought in a stretcher, and the stretcher was covered by a whole piece of white cloth, but through the figure and the blood on the white cloth, Ling Muer knew that it was the dead Concubine Yi.
"You said you didn't kill Concubine Yi, then I ask you, what are you doing in the harem so late at night? Why are you alone?"
The emperor's voice was not loud, but it was majestic and full of deterrence.
When Ling Mu'er raised her eyes, she met his scrutinizing eyes, and she explained calmly, "Back to the emperor, there is a nanny who came to the second prince's mansion to spread the word that Concubine Yi invited me into the palace to ask for peace. The emperor might not believe it when I came out, but when I arrived at the harem, the nanny suddenly disappeared. I noticed something was wrong and was about to go back when I saw Concubine Yi lying on the ground not far away. When I arrived Suddenly the guards also surrounded me, and I don't know what happened."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shangguan Shaochen immediately knelt beside the emperor and clasped his hands together, "Father, Mu'er was framed by someone, please investigate clearly!"
"Nurse?" The emperor ignored Shangguan Shaochen, frowned, and looked back at Mr. Xi, who immediately sent someone to investigate.
Not long after, the guard approached, "Go back to the emperor, today the guards at the palace gate reported that no maids and maids have entered or left the palace gate,"
"impossible!"
Ling Mu'er was a little anxious now, but at this moment, she deeply realized that she was once again being plotted against.
But this time, this person's tricks are really clever, even she didn't notice it, and was caught in the trap in a daze!
The so-called don't say what people don't know, if you haven't done it, you haven't done it.
"Your Majesty, Mu'er doesn't know who is harming me, but a living person entered the second prince's mansion, and there are guards all over the mansion to prove it."
"Second Emperor's sister-in-law's words are wrong. The second emperor's wife is the second prince's concubine. All the slaves in the second prince's mansion still listen to you. I don't know if the second emperor's sister-in-law has someone else to prove it?"
He had thought that Qin Ruochen would speak, but he didn't expect it to be after these words.
Could it be that this matter was planned by him alone?
Ling Mu'er's brows showed a bit of nervousness. She was the nanny who was receiving the second prince's mansion. The nanny claimed to be from the palace, but the guards in the palace claimed that no one came in and out. Was it the guards who were lying, or That nanny was pretending on purpose?
Who is it that is so cruel, even harming her, but even implicating the innocent Concubine Yi!
"I can prove it!"
When an extremely hoarse voice did not come, apart from Ling Muer, even the emperor was shocked.
I saw Qin Yuheng walking slowly in front of the emperor, kneeling on one knee, very respectful, "Your Majesty, at that time, I was waiting for the emperor's brother to come back from the second prince's mansion. The Second Sister-in-law proves that someone deliberately lured the Second Sister-in-law into the palace."
Qin Ruochen didn't expect Qin Yuheng to stand up suddenly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he snorted, "Why is Third Prince still in Second Prince's residence so late?"
"Isn't it okay for this king to ask the second brother for a drink?" Qin Yuheng shot at him coldly. After experiencing the pain of losing his mother, he seemed to have changed overnight. The air-conditioning that comes out seems to make people feel deep in the forest and glacier.
"Brother Sanhuang, why don't you tell me, what's the body shape of the nanny?" Qin Ruochen didn't say anything, but when he did, everyone in the room became nervous.
Ling Muer immediately looked at Shangguan Shaochen, her eyes seemed to say: "It's Qin Ruochen, he must be the one who hurt me!"
Shangguan Shaochen's complexion was extremely cold. When he returned to the mansion last night, he saw Shang Zhi waiting outside anxiously. After learning that Mu'er was invited into the palace, he rushed over anxiously, but unfortunately he hadn't reached the palace gate yet. , then heard the shocking news.
How could his Mu'er kill someone?
No, his Mu'er must have been terrified.
Regardless of his father's order not to be disturbed while he was recuperating, he insisted on breaking into the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Fortunately, no one dared to do anything to his Mu'er, otherwise, he would have buried the entire prison with him!
"This king is the new Happy King named by my father, why should I pay close attention to a lowly nanny?"
Qin Yuheng turned back mercilessly angrily, and looked at Qin Ruochen again, his chest rose and fell, "What does that nanny look like, what does her body have to do with me? But..." His sharp eyes shot over to Qin Ruochen, "Why is the sixth emperor How curious is a nanny who sent a message, could it be someone from your family?"
After finishing speaking, Qin Ruochen hurriedly knelt down in front of the emperor, "Father was wronged! I'm just curious. After all, the deceased was the most beloved Concubine Yi, and the imperial concubine died suddenly in the harem. This is a serious matter. No strict investigation."
"Thank you Sixth Brother, the death of the mother and concubine is indeed strange, but I believe that the father will definitely investigate the murderer."
Before the emperor could speak, Qin Yuheng had already answered on his behalf. Looking back, he looked at the concubine mother who had long since passed away lying on the side. He suppressed his grief, his eyes were scarlet, "Concubine mother, what happened to all this? I only went to greet you yesterday morning, but at night you already……"
Qin Yuheng took a deep breath, and looked at the emperor again, with a determined and resentful expression on his face, "Father, my son implores the father to order a strict investigation of the harem! Someone must be jealous of the mother and concubine, so he deliberately killed the emperor and framed the second emperor." Sister-in-law, please order the emperor!"
Seeing Qin Yuheng's attitude, the emperor, who was still skeptical, was only curious, "Are you really in the second prince's mansion last night?"
Qin Yuheng didn't hesitate, "Yes"
As long as he admits that he is there, it can prove that Ling Muer is not lying, but it still cannot prove that she is not the murderer.
"Ling Muer!"
"My daughter-in-law is here."
"Let me ask you, what did the mother-in-law look like yesterday? When did she leave your side? Why didn't you notice? Also, when did Concubine Yi die?"
The emperor asked angrily, one sentence was sharper than one sentence.
Just as Ling Muer was about to speak, she felt her mind flashing, oops, why do she always have an attack when she is so nervous and serious?
She hurriedly pinched the inner thigh, after the pain woke her up, she was about to speak, but Shangguan Shaochen was ahead of her.
"Father, Mu'er is pregnant, so it's not suitable to kneel for a long time, please give me a seat!"
People have not washed away their grievances, so they are rewarded with seats. These two princes are really not afraid of the emperor's power.
Even Ling Mu'er looked over nervously, but the emperor agreed.
After thanking the eunuch, Ling Muer sat on the chair and explained the appearance and posture of the nanny in detail, and an artist had already drawn them.
"I don't know the second prince and concubine, is the minister's painting correct?"
Ling Muer nodded, "As Xiaoyao Wang said, I didn't look carefully, but it looks pretty good."
Looking at the emperor again, she was still as calm as usual, "Yesterday, the harem was very quiet, and I didn't find a single guard along the way. I felt curious and asked, but I didn't get an answer for a long time, and I realized that the nanny had disappeared. Now Come to think of it, that nanny's steps are light, so it can be seen that she is a master of qinggong, as for when she disappeared, Mu'er doesn't know."
Knowing nothing, such an answer is very unfavorable to her.
But what she said was the truth, with sincere eyes, she believed that the emperor would not doubt it.
"As for Concubine Yi, when I walked in and saw that the person lying on the ground was Concubine Yi, I was terrified. Everyone knows that Concubine Yi was the one who cured Concubine Yi when she went crazy. After I cured Concubine Yi and returned to the palace, she treated me the same I took great care of Concubine Yi, and I treated Concubine Yi as a mother. When I saw her lying on the ground, I rushed over without hesitation. She was stabbed twice in the chest, but both were stabbed from the back. But why is the dagger in her hand? I was curious, and picked up the dagger to take a closer look, but at this moment, guards rushed over, and the rest is what the emperor saw."
After finishing speaking, Shangguan Shaochen clasped his fists again and looked at the emperor, "Father is wise, someone deliberately framed all of this, someone deliberately lured Mu'er into the palace, and someone arranged in advance for the guards to appear on time after Mu'er appeared. Otherwise, how could the guards find out that Concubine Yi was killed by such a coincidence, please father and emperor to investigate!"
Qin Ruochen shook his head when he heard the words, "Brother Erhuang, I know that you are eager to protect your wife, but father and emperor can't listen to the words of the second emperor's wife alone, right? Who knows if the second emperor's wife didn't have time to kill someone? After dealing with it, the guards found out, anyway, what the guards saw was the Second Emperor's Wife holding a dagger at Concubine Yi, how can you be sure that she wasn't the murderer?"
Qin Ruochen snorted coldly, "Besides, my prince heard that Concubine Yi had a servant with her when she went out, and that servant was murdered and thrown into the lake, so can I be sure that the second sister-in-law didn't have time to deal with it?" The body was found?"
"Qin Ruochen!" Shangguan Shaochen gritted his teeth, stared at him coldly, and was about to say something, but was scolded by the emperor.
"Shut up for me!"
The emperor was short of breath, and after calming down for a long time, he looked at Qin Yuheng who was kneeling on the ground without saying a word, "Your mother and concubine died suddenly, what do you think of this matter?"
Qin Yuheng's eyes were scarlet, his expression was very sad but he was holding back, he raised his eyes, he didn't know if it was a coincidence or he was dazzled, for some reason he seemed to see the slightly trembling and evasive eyes of Eunuch Xi behind the emperor.
"Father, mother and concubine have been taking care of father and concubine day and night in the Hall of Mental Cultivation these days, why did mother and concubine appear in the harem last night?"
As soon as these words came out, he clearly saw Eunuch Xi tremble all over. Although it was fleeting, he was still caught by him.
"At that time, I fell into a coma and didn't know the situation. But..."
The emperor waved his hand behind him, "Why did Concubine Yi leave, tell me!"
