Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 522

The eldest princess took a deep breath, Mrs. Liu is very smart, in front of her, she must be careful.

"Their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not getting along, and this palace is just suspicious."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "It seems that in your eyes, the princess is cruel and ruthless, and may even poison her own mother-in-law."

"Stop setting up tricks, I will never be fooled again!"

After finishing speaking, the eldest princess followed the two officials to the Ministry of Punishment.

Liu Yunxiang looked at the back of the eldest princess, and sighed heavily. If the murderer wasn't Murong Lingyi, who would it be?
"Why is she going to the Criminal Court?" Qu Moran stepped forward and asked.

Seeing that Qu Moran didn't care about the eldest princess at all, Liu Yunxiang briefly told Qu Moran about the murder of Mrs. Wuchanghou and their suspicion that it was Murong Lingyi.

Qu Moran snorted coldly, "So in order to cover up Murong Lingyi's crimes, she didn't hesitate to kill people!"

"She...is really confused."

"Not only confused but also blind. When I stood in front of her and told her that I was her daughter, she scolded me for being a little beggar and daring to pretend to be the princess."

Qu Moran's expression was full of sarcasm, but his eyes were sad.

A ten-year-old child, she has experienced wars, ups and downs, entered the gate of hell several times, gritted her teeth in fear and helplessness, and finally returned home, but was rejected by her mother.

She seems to have forgotten that daughter, and has already treated her as non-existent.

"There must be something hidden here."

"Later, I went to Beijing again. This time I grew up. I didn't have so much hatred and hostility. I still wanted to have a good talk with them. I found General Weiyuan and told him everything about my nanny and me. I showed him the clothes I wore when I was a baby. According to the nanny, there were a few peonies on it that were embroidered by the eldest princess. ruined."

Speaking of this, Qu Moran shook his head, "I don't want to mention this matter, and I have never told anyone about it."

This is a wound in her heart. It hurts too much to mention it.

Liu Yunxiang hugged Qu Moran, "I still feel that there is something hidden in it, maybe I can help you."

"No, Yi'er and I live a very peaceful life, and I don't want to break this tranquility. Besides, I don't actually have much affection for them, and I think they are the same."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "Okay, but if one day you want to recognize them, I will help you."

Qu Moran smiled: "I know."

In the courtroom of the Ministry of Punishment, Yan Mu was sitting at the front seat as the presiding judge, Wuchanghou and Xue Changfeng were also there, and they were staring at Murong Lingyi. If it was really her, the father and son would probably rush up and strangle her to death.

And Murong Lingyi stood beside the eldest princess, frowning tightly, with a clouded look.

Zhou Lihuai and Mrs. Chen knelt down, and Yan Mu asked the officials to invite a nun from Ziyun Nunnery.

Yan Mu patted the gavel, and the people below all looked at him.

Yan Mu looked at Murong Lingyi: "Princess Zhaohua, this is the court. If this king asks you, you must answer, and you must not lie."

"Seventh Brother..."

"This is the court. The king presiding over this case will definitely handle it properly."

Seeing Yan Mu's serious expression, Murong Lingyi looked around again, especially when he saw Xue Changfeng's eagerness to kill her, he subdued his arrogance, "Yes."

"Do you know Chen Xuan?"

Murong Lingyi frowned, "It's Chen Xuan again, I don't know her."

"Chen Xuan is a court lady. She replaced the ginseng pills in Tai Zhou's medicine chest with poison pills, so that Mrs. Marquis of Wuchang was poisoned to death. Last night, Chen Xuan committed suicide in fear of crime."

Murong Lingyi rolled his eyes, "What do you mean, you don't suspect that I bribed that maid to harm my mother-in-law?"

"You are indeed suspected."

"I didn't! I really didn't!" Murong Lingyi became anxious, and turned to the eldest princess and said, "Mother, trust me, I really didn't harm my mother-in-law!"

The eldest princess' eyes lit up, "It's really not you?"

"Why should I harm her? It's necessary for you!"

"My mother wants to marry me a concubine, but you don't agree. My mother asked you to have a child, but you also don't agree. She even killed the child in Aunt Zhou's womb. It is clear that my Xue family has no children. My mother saw your Conspiracy, intending to expose you, so you poisoned her!" Xue Changfeng said angrily.

Murong Lingyi turned around and stared at Xue Changfeng, "I caused Aunt Zhou to harm the child in her womb. I admit that she is a lowly person. Even if I kill her, it's fine according to the law."

"you!"

"As for your mother, I hate her, but my mother always persuades me, so I won't kill her."

"In order to cover up this matter, the eldest princess did not hesitate to kill Mrs. Chen. She clearly knew that you had killed someone!"

Murong Lingyi turned to look at the eldest princess, and asked in surprise, "Mother, do you doubt me too?"

The eldest princess closed her eyes: "This is my problem, not yours."

When the case came to this point, it fell into a difficult situation again. Who was the maid instigated? Except for Murong Lingyi, there seemed to be no other suspects, and Murong Lingyi said that he did not know this palace lady. There is no way to prove it.

Liu Yunxiang took a deep breath, thinking that the case would not be able to continue after the trial.

Yan Mu looked at the nun at Ziyun Nunnery standing below, and asked, "Master, you said that Chen Xuan was approached by someone early in the morning on the day she committed suicide, right?"

The nun hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he couldn't help being confused. They asked this nun that day, and she clearly said that no one came to see Chen Xuan in those two days...

"But this Mrs. Chen?"

The nun looked at Mrs. Chen and said, "She did look for Benefactor Chen, but it was four or five days before Benefactor Chen committed suicide. After that, Benefactor Chen did not show any abnormalities."

Mrs. Chen nodded quickly, "Her brother is getting married, and I asked her to raise money, and she agreed."

Yan Mu pointed at Murong Lingyi again, "Is that her?"

The nun looked at Murong Lingyi, still shaking her head, "No."

Hearing this, the eldest princess was obviously relieved, but Xue Changfeng and his son looked troubled at this moment. If it wasn't Murong Lingyi, who would it be?
Yan Mu lowered his eyes for a moment, then raised his head, and pointed at one place, "Master, please recognize it carefully. On the morning of Chen Xuan's suicide, she was the one who went to Ziyun Nunnery to look for her?"

Everyone looked at the person Yan Mu was pointing at, who was actually Murong Lingyi's maid, and everyone thought it was a bit ridiculous.

A maid, why did she kill Mrs. Wuchang Hou? It's really funny.

However, after staring at the maidservant for a while, the nun nodded, "It's her!"

This time, everyone was shocked.

Yan Mu asked again: "Master, I will ask you again, are you sure it is her?"

The teacher nodded, "It's her. Early that morning, she sneaked into the backyard. I wanted to stop her at that time, but seeing that Master Chen knew her, I retreated."

Yan Mu's eyes sharpened, "Bold and slavish, you still haven't pleaded guilty!"
