Chapter 868 The Grand Finale (4)
At that time, the prince's complexion was ashen, his eyes were angry, and the sharp light flickered alternately. He was very angry at the matter of the Ninth Prince taking his military talisman. It is not impossible for the prince to lose his mind in a fit of anger and kill the Ninth Prince.

The situation is very unfavorable to the prince.

Concubine Ye Gui is really eloquent and eloquent!

Ouyang Yechen raised the corners of his mouth, calmly: "The important things of this palace will be kept in a tight place and kept in a safe place. Before the banquet, the reason why Brother Nine Emperors got the soldier talisman is because I put the soldier talisman away when I dealt with things. Put it on the table, but didn't put it away. With the lesson learned by the Nine Emperor Brothers, I am more careful in doing things. Before attending the banquet, all the important things are put in a very tight place, and the Ninth Emperor Brother can't get it at all. Gong was angry and killed him?"

As the prince, Ouyang Yechen is cautious in dealing with people, active in thinking, and good at summing up experience. The same mistake is rarely made a second time. The soldier talisman is in charge of Qing Song's hundreds of thousands of troops. It is no small matter. After being taken away once , he will definitely keep it more carefully and properly, and will never give others a chance to take it away. Therefore, the Ninth Prince took important items and was discovered by the Prince, and the killing in anger is not established.

The military talisman was originally used by Concubine Ye Gui to testify against the prince's murder, but unexpectedly, it was used by the prince instead and became a favorable evidence to prove the prince's innocence. Concubine Ye was very unwilling and gritted her teeth: "The prince said that Ye Hao's death has nothing to do with you. If it has anything to do with it, why did his body appear on the bed in the Prince's study?"

"This is also the question I want to ask!" Ouyang Yechen's eyes were cold: "The guards are always guarding the study and not allowing any idlers to enter. How did the Nine Emperor Brothers enter the study?"

Before the banquet, Ouyang Yehao came into the study with Ouyang Yechen's permission, and mischievously snatched the soldier amulet. This time, Ouyang Yechen didn't even know how he got in.

Ouyang Yehao was still a child, it was impossible to avoid so many guards and sneak into the study, there must be another reason for his death.

The door of the study opened, and several maids, nuns, and guards were escorted into the study.

"What do you slaves and slaves think of the Ninth Prince?" Concubine Ye Gui kicked and beat several people, the maids, nurses, and guards neglected their duties, and knelt down on the ground begging for mercy: "My lord, please forgive me... The prince is very smart, he sneaked away while the servants were not paying attention..."

The anger in Concubine Ye Gui's chest was even stronger, she didn't like Hao'er, and even found an excuse to shirk responsibility: "They are all useless things, and they can't even protect a child. It's..."

"Look, the Ninth Prince seems to have something in his hand!" After the imperial doctor entered the study, he pinched the Ninth Prince's right wrist to feel the pulse, and found that he had no pulse, so he didn't pay attention to the left wrist. Just now, Ye Guifei hugged the Ninth Prince and looked for him angrily. When the prince settled the accounts, the Ninth Prince's small body lay on the bed, with his left hand out, the small hand was clenched tightly, and a sharp corner was exposed from an object in his hand.

A guard took a step forward, opened the Ninth Prince's left hand, took out a wood-carved xun (an ancient musical instrument), and presented it to the emperor. Ordinary xuns are made of clay, and this wood-carved xun Toys can only be used for playing, not playing.

The emperor looked carefully: "Is this carved by... Shaoxian?" The emperor had seen Ouyang Shaoxian's carving skills before, and he could tell that this xun was carved by him.

"Return to the emperor, this minister gave it to the Ninth Prince a year ago!" At that time, Ouyang Shaoxian was not yet married, and when he entered the palace and met the Ninth Prince who was pestering him, he cut off a branch and carved it a few times. After dealing with the Ninth Prince, He went to see the emperor. He thought that the Ninth Prince would throw it away after playing enough, but he still kept it.

Concubine Ye Gui's eyes flickered sharply: "Could it be that Hao'er is implying that the one who killed him was the one who sculpted this Xun!" In Concubine Ye Guifei's view, the prince and Ouyang Shaoxian belonged to the same faction, both of whom killed Ouyang Yehao suspected.

"From the beginning of the banquet until now, Shaoxian has been sitting next to me in the banquet hall, and he hasn't left for a while. How can he kill someone?" Murong Yu's cold eyes flickered coldly: "Your concubine, I know that you are heartbroken when you lose your son. However, please don't jump to conclusions until the matter is clarified!"

"I just want to find the murderer who killed Hao'er. I have no other thoughts. Since Princess Chuxuan said that the murderer was not Prince Chuxuan, how could this Xun be held tightly by Hao'er?" Ye The imperial concubine did not show any weakness, pressing on every step of the way.

"Young Concubine, you must be very familiar with the nature of a child. He will only be interested in a toy for a few days at most, and if it is longer, it will never be a year. Xun was carved by Shaoxian a year ago. The prince has long been tired of playing, how could he hold it in his hand all the time and use it to testify against Shaoxian?"

Murong Yu's eloquence was clear and deciphering: "In the past few months, the imperial concubine or the maids, nuns, and guards who take care of the Ninth Prince have seen the Ninth Prince playing with the wooden xun?"

The maids, nuns, and guards all looked at each other with doubts in their eyes. The Ninth Prince was recently interested in the things in the Prince's study, and Ouyang Shaoxian's wooden xun had long been forgotten.

Looking at the expressions of several people, Murong Yu's eyes were cold: "Could it be that the Ninth Prince was killed and then went to the palace to testify against the suspect with a Xun, or that Shaoxian killed someone and stuffed the Xun into the hands of the Ninth Prince?" , to prove that you are a murderer?" Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is deliberately planting blame, and Concubine Ye Gui still doubts it, it is really stupid.

"Princess Chu Xuan is really smart, she analyzed the matter clearly and logically, as if she saw it with her own eyes, I admire you!" Concubine Ye Gui even mocked and accused Murong Yu of being an accomplice in disguise.

Murong Yu was not in a hurry or annoyed: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see the truth of the matter, I just expressed the doubts in everyone's hearts!" It's not that Murong Yu is thinking too much, it's that Concubine Ye Gui is too stupid to guess the real intention of the murderer .

"Then according to what Princess Chuxuan said, who is the real culprit, and why did you plan to frame the crown prince and Prince Chuxuan?" Concubine Ye Gui's tone was cold, with hints of sarcasm. Since Murong Yu is so smart, she will find out the real culprit and show him ah!

Ignoring Concubine Ye Gui's provocation, Murong Yu's cold eyes shifted to the little maid who was kneeling on the ground. A piece of spice was scattered on the ground in front of the maid: "You are responsible for adding spice to the study!"
