Chapter 136 Who Says There Is No Evidence
Youlan suddenly raised her head and looked at Chu Huanyan in panic.After reacting, she immediately changed her expression, "Miss Chu, what do you mean?"

Emperor Xiao's face had been deadly silent since just now, and now he finally spoke: "Chu Huanyan, what is going on?"

Chu Huanyan bowed to Emperor Xiao and said, "Your Majesty, everything I did was to test Youlan from the beginning."

The powder buried under the wall was just to make the murderer suspicious.

If Youlan is the murderer, the sudden appearance of the medicinal powder under the wall will definitely make her suspicious. In addition, Shen Chi insists that it is the same as the poison in Concubine Xue. After thinking about it for a moment, it is easy to suspect that it is. He and Shen Chi were acting.

Therefore, when she deliberately said those words to Shen Chi in the back garden, she was sure that Youlan was eavesdropping in the dark.

She made Youlan think that they were doubting Yuegui, and at the same time let her hear that they were preparing to test Yuegui.But in fact, what she wanted to see was whether Youlan would take this opportunity to take action.

And now it seems that Youlan has not let her down, and she really doesn't want to miss this opportunity.

"If you guessed it right, you pretended to be unwell today and returned to the courtyard to rest, but you have been keeping an eye on it secretly. After making sure that everyone left and only Concubine Yuegui and Xue Guifei were left, you quietly put in the smoke, and then If you set fire to them again and want to burn them to death, you will die without any evidence. As for the things that fuel the fire..."

Chu Huanyan paused for a moment and cast a clear gaze on Youlan's face.

"I heard that you were groggy after vigil last night. This morning, you accidentally knocked over the oil lamp stand in the outer hall. As a result, there is still a smell of lamp oil in the hall today. I think you have secretly spilled some of the lamp oil into the interior. temple."

However, the smell of spilled lamp oil just covered up the smell, making people think it came from the outer hall.

In the inner hall, there are many gauze curtains and beds, so it is really easy to burn them.

Youlan's face could not stop turning pale, but she still raised her head, stared at Chu Huanyan and said: "These are just your guesses, there is no evidence at all. Besides, if it is really that easy to burn , the slave slipped into the inner hall and lit a fire, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy for me to escape.”

"You don't need to enter the inner hall. You just need to quietly break the window bolts of the rear window of the inner hall during the vigil last night and replace it with one sawed from the middle. If you don't get close and look carefully when they are put together, it will be difficult to detect. What, but the window can already be pushed open from the outside. By the way..."

Chu Huanyan looked at Youlan quietly and added.

"If you want to do these things without being discovered, you should have done some tricks last night. For example, you added some poison to the incense burner. If you take the antidote in advance, you will be safe, but the other guards may Will fall into a deep sleep."

In this way, Youlan could make all the arrangements with confidence and boldness. When other night watchers woke up, at most they just felt that they were too sleepy and actually fell asleep.

Qin Li asked the other two palace maids who were guarding last night, and they all said that they did not know him and accidentally fell asleep.

Almost all suspicious eyes fell on Youlan, and the familiar palace maid couldn't help but speak.

"Youlan, is it really you?"

You Lan secretly lowered her hands and clenched them together nervously, her nails digging into her palms hard. She forced herself to calm down.

"These are just speculations, there is no evidence at all!"

"Who said there is no evidence?" Chu Huanyan laughed again.

"Have you already mastered the evidence?" Xiao Rongxuan frowned and looked at Chu Huanyan.

After listening to all the explanations just now, it is difficult to leave any evidence in every link.

Chu Huanyan glanced at the cloth again, "This is the evidence." "This slave has never seen the cloth at all, and she doesn't know why the cloth is in Yuegui's room. If Miss Chu wants to use this to frame the slave, If so, please forgive me for dissatisfaction!" Youlan said immediately.

Chu Huanyan looked at her and said, "You wanted so much to identify Yue Gui as the murderer. After setting the fire, you returned to the yard and saw the cloth on the tree fell to the ground, so you simply hid it in Yue Gui's room. Do you think this is the case? You can better eliminate suspicion, but you don’t know that as long as you touch this cloth, you will have ironclad evidence on your hands.”

"My hand?" Youlan was stunned and subconsciously looked at her hand.

Chu Huanyan glanced at Qin Li, who went up the mountain and sprinkled medicinal powder on Youlan's hand.

That was what Chu Huanyan used to test Queen Wei before.

Looking at the discolored fingers and palms, Youlan's expression completely changed.

"Why, how could this be!"

"According to Miss Chu's instructions, this cloth has been sprinkled with medicinal powder in advance. Unless someone has touched it, the palms of the hands will not turn red. You keep saying that you have never seen this cloth, but what is the explanation for this?" Qin Li Questioned in a deep voice.

This Youlan really didn't shed tears until she saw the coffin. Fortunately, Miss Chu had known for a long time that the other party would not admit it without proof.

Youlan stared at her hands, her face turned completely gray, and her whole body went limp.

She understood that she could no longer shirk it.

"Your Majesty, now the truth of the matter has been revealed. The three-day period has not passed yet, and I have found the murderer. I hope that the Emperor can return my innocence and let His Royal Highness come out of the prison." Chu Huanyan said to Xiao. Imperial way.

Emperor Xiao's face was still cold, "Chu Huanyan, where is Zhi'er? Since all this is your test, where is Zhi'er! Her safety..."

"My concubine is here." A weak voice sounded faintly, coming from the other end of the corridor.

Xiao Jin was stunned and immediately turned his head to follow the sound.

Concubine Xue was supported by Yue Gui and appeared at the other end of the corridor. Although her face was as pale as paper and she looked extremely weak, she was standing there perfectly fine at the moment.

Emperor Xiao walked quickly towards Concubine Xue. After making sure that she was safe and sound, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and gently hugged her into his arms with red eyes.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay. Do you know how scared I was just now."

Concubine Xue stiffened slightly, but perhaps she was moved by Emperor Xiao's worried mood. She rarely broke away from his embrace, but gently leaned into his embrace.

"Your Majesty, I have made you worried."

This simple sentence made Emperor Xiao's heart soften instantly.

"It's okay, Zhi'er. This time it's all my fault. I will definitely protect you in the future and never let you be in the slightest danger again."

Concubine Xue leaned quietly in Emperor Xiao's arms, and after a while she gently responded, "Okay."

You Lan looked at Concubine Xue Gui and Yue Gui who were safe and sound, her pale face full of surprise. Not only were Concubine Xue and Yue Gui not burned to death, but they actually woke up?
She quickly turned to look at Chu Huanyan, "What on earth is going on?"
