Chapter 39

"When I ask her questions, I hope that no matter what she asks, no one will disturb me, no one will be allowed to speak, no one will be allowed to make any noise, and no one will be allowed to make any influential actions." The smile on Tang Ke Xin's lips had already completely faded. His face was serious, and his expression extremely serious.

Everyone also had a face full of curiosity, and even Ye Lan Jue's gaze seemed a little strange.

Tang Ke Xin's seriousness caused her to be alarmed, and even made her tremble slightly. She already felt pressure in her heart, and her heart became tense.

"What does heart-child want to ask about? Is it that serious?" The smile on the Ming Gui Fei's beautiful face rippled slightly, and her gentle voice sounded very familiar.

The Ming Gui Fei loved her daughter, Li Ming Zhu. Back then, the Old General Li went to war with the late emperor, and when they were born, they went through fire and water, they even saved the late emperor's life before.

After the Old General Li received her as a daughter in her later years, she viewed Li Ming Zhu as her precious daughter and named her Li Ming Zhu. Li Ming Zhu entered the palace eight years ago and directly bestowed her the title of Ming Gui Fei.

Someone once guessed that if Li Ming Zhu was born ten years earlier, the position of Queen would definitely be hers.

Of course, some people did not agree with this point of view. The current Queen was the daughter of Tutor Mu, and in the past, Tutor Mu had no military power and did not have much influence over the court. In the past, although the Old General Li did not have a daughter, but the number of people who held a daughter in their court was countless beyond compare.

However, Emperor insisted on marrying Mu Wan Qing, and directly married her in the manner of a Queen.

At that time, many people could not understand why Emperor, who had just ascended to power and was unstable in everything, would make such a decision.

"Just now, this Emperor promised this humble woman that no one could disturb her. Did I not hear that?" Tang Ke Xin looked at her, blinked his eyes, and then blinked again. His expression was innocent and confused.

The corner of Ye Lan Chen's mouth twitched, but he had truly trained his ability to play the pig to eat the tiger to his heart's content.

The corner of Ye Lan Jue's brows slightly rose.

In this situation, the others naturally wouldn't say anything.

Emperor did not say anything as well, only lightly pulling at the corner of his lips.

Tang Ke Xin looked at Ming Gui Fei and laughed, that smile was very pure and sincere.

Ming Gui Fei's face was obviously somewhat gloomy.

"Tang Ke Xin ignored her, and directly turned to the palace maid who had framed her, and asked in an extremely casual tone. "What's your name?"

"Your servant, your servant's name is Xiao Cui." The palace maid was startled, as she did not expect Tang Ke Xin, who was so serious earlier, to ask her this question. She did not even stammer when answering the question that Emperor asked.

"Mn, Xiao Cui, not bad." Tang Ke Xin nodded seriously.

Xiao Cui was stunned, she looked at Tang Ke Xin with a little more astonishment, she did not understand what she meant.

Of course, everyone could not understand what Tang Ke Xin meant by that. She just felt that although this fool had recovered from her illness, she was still messing around.

"Where did you find the body?" Tang Ke Xin paused for a moment, then asked again, these words were a little mysterious.

"..." Xiao Cui paused for a moment, then said: "This servant just passed by the fake mountain, and coincidentally saw the Miss Tang use a stone to smash Autumn Flower."

Tang Ke Xin secretly chuckled, not bad, your mental state is not bad, your reaction is fast enough, it's really good.

"Which Courtyard are you from?" Tang Ke Xin's red lips moved slightly, and she asked carelessly.

"This servant is from Lian Yi Yuan." Xiao Cui's eyes flashed, he was obviously surprised by this question, but he replied fluently.

"Noble Lian sent a servant to fetch some ice to relieve the heat." Xiao Cui answered time and time again, but she was even more confused. Previously she was so serious, but now she was just asking her such a question?

"Yes, she is Autumn Flower." Xiao Cui's answer became light as well. A question like this was obviously not a problem at all.

Tang Ke Xin asked a total of three questions, all of them extremely simple. Furthermore, even though the last question was related to this matter, it was merely a trivial and insignificant one.

Which Courtyard are you from? Then, Tang Ke Xin asked the first question once again.

"This servant is from Lian Yi Yuan." Xiao Cui thought that she had forgotten, hence she asked again, but she quickly replied her.

"Where are you going on such a hot day?" Tang Ke Xin's second question, was still a repeat.

"Noble Lian sent a servant to fetch some ice to relieve the heat." Xiao Cui was startled, and continued to answer.

"Do you know the deceased?" Tang Ke Xin's third question was also a repeat.

"Yes, her name is Qiuju." At that moment, Xiao Cui had already relaxed, there was contempt in his heart.

Although Xiao Cui's face did not reveal any change and there was no change in her voice, Tang Ke Xin had already clearly captured the change in her expression.

That was what she wanted.

Just now, she wanted Emperor to promise her not to let anyone disturb her when she asked her questions. This was very important, the process really could not be disturbed.

At first, Xiao Cui was definitely very nervous, especially on guard. However, after hearing her repeated questions, she would lower his guard and unconsciously relax.

In a situation where a person was extremely nervous and vigilant, once they relaxed, they would be especially relaxed. The disdain and contempt they had for others would only grow stronger and stronger.

One of these problems is that the stronger the drop, the more obvious the rise and fall of the mood.

At this moment, Xiao Cui no longer took her seriously. She probably already treated her like a fool.

Just that, her speed of questioning had unknowingly increased, Xiao Cui's reaction speed was indeed strong, Tang Ke Xin asked very quickly, and she answered very quickly.

The question Tang Ke Xin asked was the same, and her answer was also the same.

Hearing Tang Ke Xin's repeated questions, everyone felt dizzy, but they were even more confused. They did not understand what Tang Ke Xin was trying to do.

Could it be that her illness had not completely recovered and she had become stupid again, so she kept asking these simple questions?

However, the Emperor had already spoken, and there were also the examples of the previous Ming Gui Fei, so, at this moment, no one dared to disturb Tang Ke Xin.

Ye Lan Jue's eyes looked at Tang Ke Xin, but became more and more profound.

After Tang Ke Xin asked this question thrice, she continued to ask it a fourth time. It was still the same question, but the speed at which she asked it was still unconsciously increasing.

Xiao Cui's reply had also unconsciously sped up, synchronized with her.

"Which Courtyard are you from?"

"This servant is from Lian Yi Yuan."

"Where are you going on such a hot day?"

"Noble Lian sent a servant to fetch some ice to relieve the heat."

"Do you know the deceased?"

"Yes, she is Autumn Flower."

"Who killed the chrysanthemum?" After asking that question for the fourth time, Tang Ke Xin suddenly changed questions. Only, her tone was still as casual and natural as before, completely different from before.

"This servant doesn't know, this servant didn't see …" "The Xiao Cui at this moment had long since lost all her defenses. At this time, with such a speed of speech, Tang Ke Xin used an equally natural and casual tone and suddenly changed the topic. She didn't even have time to react, and didn't even think about it, and only instinctively blurted out.

Of course, in a situation like this where she was completely unprepared and had no time to react, what she said was absolutely the truth.

Because, Tang Ke Xin didn't even give her the chance to compose a lie.

Everyone was shocked, and sounds of breathing could be heard. However, no one said anything for a while. The whole world was quiet for a while. "Huu."
