Amidst the commotion, Xiao Yi Xiu also walked out from next door. He glanced at the undressed Yue He, and his gaze fell onto the bloody marks on the ground. He stared at them for a long time.
"Madam Yue said that the wounds were caused by the black jade. What does Your Highness think?"
"Your Highness, you must uphold justice for this humble one. This humble one is wrongly accused! I don't understand what happened! "
Xiao Yixiu lowered his eyelids, too lazy to talk to her. He simply raised his chin towards Suifeng, indicating for him to explain.
"Madam Yue, Xin Ziyao was strangled to death by someone. She struggled when she died, and her nails scratched a few wounds on the murderer's body, leaving behind skin and flesh. Now, are you satisfied with your death? " Suifeng revealed a contemptuous smile.
"No no, I was really scratched by the black jade!" "Picking mulberry trees!" Yue He suddenly thought of something, "Weren't you and Mei Er watching this from the side? Didn't you see the black jade catch me? "
Qin Caisheng had already buttoned her shirt and came out. She said softly, "Sister Yue, when have I seen her? Mel, did you see it? "
Mei Er shook her head. "I was with Madam at noon. I've never seen Mistress Yue before."
Yue He froze, and then suddenly shouted: "You're lying! "I was wrongly accused …"
"This is a murder case, send it to the magistrate." There seemed to be regret in his voice as he sighed softly. "I think the justice courts will clear it up."
"Your Highness, this is Zai Sang framing me!" The cry of the moon gradually faded, mixed with the sound of weeping.
"Tch!" Luo Yun's low voice could be heard amidst the crowd. What kind of people were these wives? One after the other, they were scum. Yet, Prince Mo still had to face them all day.
The crowd dispersed, leaving behind only Xiao Yi Xiu, who was still standing in his original spot. He swept his gaze across Gu Qing Li.
"Princess, why aren't you leaving? What are you waiting for?"
"What is the prince waiting for?"
Xiao Yixiu stared at her for a long time before asking, "Are you waiting for Black Jade?"
Gu Qing Li was greatly surprised. He was able to see through her, but she had still deliberately allowed him to identify the moon!
"I'm planning on going to Miss Li Yue's place to see if she's back." She started to walk, but he grabbed her arm and pulled her closer.
His face was very close to hers, and his breath was soft and steady on her face. His soft voice seemed to mock her: "You are still too tender to show off your wisdom in this king's eyes. The claw marks are sharp, but the claw marks are wide and uneven."
Gu Qing Li flung him with all his might. In the end, he was still powerless, but she still managed to throw him off. He sneered, "Since you could see that Yue He was wronged, why didn't you clear up things for her? You want to send her to the court? Are you trying to go with the flow and use me to get rid of her? At the end of the day, there should be a problem with your wives, right? "
He didn't expect her to be so direct. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, "Including you, Consort Wang, don't all of you have the same goal?"
Gu Qingli was startled. She suddenly realized why he had been so rude and hostile to her from the beginning! This was because the one who had proposed the marriage was the Emperor. He believed that all the women around him came from all sorts of powers within the palace to monitor his actions and words!
She carefully searched her original body's memory to make sure she hadn't accepted any task of monitoring him. She snorted. "You think too highly of yourself. I have no interest in your matters!"
He didn't know if he believed her words, but as if by accident, he asked, "Who's next?"
Gu Qingli's mind flashed with the fresh rose tattoo that had appeared on Qin Caisheng's shoulder during the examination. This woman's reaction was quite fast. She had thought of a countermeasure in such a short period of time. She had indeed been ruthless enough to draw a flower for herself to cover herself!
With that needle and the hemostatic, you think it's flawless? Of course not! Even if the tattoos could cover up the scratches, the red and swelling of the surrounding skin after acupuncture was not so easy to dispel. Even if she applied ice on it, there were still some traces left behind.
She probably killed Xin Ziyao because she was afraid that she would go to Xiao Yi to plead with him and reveal their identities, right? Or perhaps she was afraid that Xin Ziyao would come before the empress and drag them down with her punishment.
"Meow!" Black jade appeared without a sound.
She bent down to pick up the black jade and carefully examined its claws. Sure enough, clothes and fibers were added to the claws that had previously removed the few silk threads. After careful examination, there were indeed remnants of blood.
Yue He did not lie. Black Jade had suddenly gone crazy and wanted to capture her. Qin Caisheng must have secretly instigated this. That woman must have gotten a better grasp of Black Jade's habits and made her her her scapegoat!
"In your manor, it's not even easy to be a cat. You've been used by others three times!" After Gu Qing Li finished taunting and ridiculing him, he made a decision. He didn't want to tell him any more clues.
He didn't want to deal with these madams personally, yet he wanted to fake her. Why did she have to repeat what he wanted her to do? If he had the ability, let him investigate it himself!
She picked up the cat and smiled sweetly at him. "Your highness, do you want to know who's next? Look it up yourself slowly. Please forgive this wangfei for not playing with you."
Watching Gu Qing Li's retreating back, Xiao Yi Xiu's anger faded away in the blink of an eye. He didn't even realize that a smile had appeared on his face.
What had happened recently that he'd actually become more and more tolerant of this rebellious wangfei, allowing her to clash with him repeatedly?
Killing to pay with one's life, even the wife of the Duke's Mansion was no exception.
Xin Ziyao's body was taken to the Supreme Court for autopsy. Yue Li was interrogated and found guilty of murder. Naturally, she was quickly sent to the prison to be executed.
From this, Gu Qingli judged that there must be someone from Xiaoyi Xiu in the justice courts.
To be able to solve this case so quickly and unreasonable, and even immediately execute it without giving the Queen any time to react to it, this Prince Mo, looks like he has been sick for a long time.
When the news reached the Residence of Mo King, Xiao Yi Xiu said plainly, "I'll spend the night at Madam Qin's place and have her prepare."
Qin Caisheng was feeling uneasy, not knowing whether to be happy or worried.
Ever since she had entered the palace, she had only served the prince once or twice. Every time, she would fall asleep after drinking wine, and she did not even know what the first night felt like.
Of course, she was also very confused, but it was said that Xin Ziyao was also like this when she was being favoured. She was even drowsy after smelling a light fragrance, and she even suspected that the prince had never touched them, but she didn't dare to say these words to anyone.
If the empress found out that they were so incompetent that they had not even climbed into his bed, who knew what kind of punishment they would be subjected to?
In the end, even Madam Ling had experienced the same thing as them. As they brought it up, they all thought the same thing: Prince Mo was sick and weak at the same time, but in that aspect … No way, right?
While that thought lingered in her mind, Xiao Yixiu had already ordered her to start undressing.
He sat on the edge of the bed without moving, as if he were waiting for her to come and serve him.
Qin Caisheng's hands subconsciously trembled a little as she didn't drink or smell any unusual fragrance tonight.
When she had taken off her clothes to the point where only her chest remained, she hesitantly went to help him undress. Seeing that he did not refuse, her actions gradually became more natural. She gently smiled. "Your Highness seems to be in a good mood tonight."
"Yes." He even raised his hand and caressed the rose tattoo on her shoulder. He smiled gently and said, "This tattoo is so beautiful. Why haven't I seen it before?"
"I think it's pretty good, but you liked it when you stabbed it yourself?"
"Did he stab himself?" "Looking at the mirror, it should be very difficult …"
"I've learned this before."
"Why don't you help Madame Jia with her tattoo? What do you think it should be?"
Qin Caisheng's expression froze for a moment before he smiled and said, "Whatever you like, your highness, you can make it up to me."
"This King likes scorpions."
"Scorpion …" Scorpion? "
"Snake Scorpion Beauty, snakes and scorpions are more suited for you, roses are not."
