Chapter 164 The idea was from King Luo

Mu Chu raised his eyebrows lightly: "With the testimony of the mother around Chu'er and the aunt in the house, my mother was poisoned and killed. If I don't find out, it is a big disfilial thing. Does the queen mother want me to ignore it and let me go? Will my mother be punished?"

The Empress Dowager's eyebrows raised slightly, and a serious look appeared on her well-maintained face. The surrounding palace people felt that the Empress Dowager was angry, and hurriedly lowered their heads, and stepped back slightly.

When the Queen Mother was angry, this Concubine Luo dared to bump into her. It's true that those who don't know have no fear.

"The Ai family feels that you are making trouble for no reason. There is no definite and real evidence. Only two words from a slave and a concubine have moved the mind to open the coffin. I know that you want to do it for your mother." To seek justice, those who don’t know will definitely think that you are insulting the princess’s body, deviant!”

The queen mother slightly raised the corners of her lips. Now that the coffin has been carried here, of course it cannot be carried back. Her eyes swept around Mu Chu's body, and there was a bit of coldness in her eyes.

Mu Xue showed a look of optimism, "Sister, you really disgraced the Prime Minister's family by opening the coffin for autopsy regardless of father's wishes. Now you don't know how terrible the messages in the capital are. I was talking about father killing the eldest princess, if you can't find the evidence this time, then the crime will be serious..."

Mu Chu instantly understood what Mu Xue and the queen mother meant, and they wanted to make a bet with her.

She has full confidence in proving that the eldest princess was poisoned to death.

But now, these two people were obviously aiming at her, and they spoke so confidently, which made Mu Chu feel a little confused for a while.

She narrowed her eyes and hesitated.

Mu Xue strikes while the iron is hot, and seeing that Mu Chu is backing off, she immediately smiles and turns to look in Xiao Qingyu's direction: "Your Majesty, how about this, the coffin has already been dug out today, and Princess Luo's imperial decree has also been invited, so she is like this." Confident that the eldest princess was poisoned to death, there must be conclusive evidence, why don't you be a witness today, if the eldest princess was not poisoned, then Mu Chu has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor and committing treason !"

Xiao Qingyu looked at Mu Chu for a while, and didn't nod directly, but asked with some background: "Princess Luo, what do you think?"

Mu Xue gritted her teeth, and glanced at the current emperor. She never thought that the emperor would actually favor this woman a little bit, and give her a step down. If she refused, although many people would be dissatisfied, it would not be impossible And retreat.

Mu Chu stood up, his gaze was firm, without any hesitation.

She was betting, betting that she would definitely be able to find the truth in the coffin, and this could be regarded as an explanation for the dead eldest princess and the original owner.

Coincidentally, he can also figure out the important reason why he is going to be married to King Li.

"it is good!"

With just one word, the bet was set.

The moment Mu Chu's voice fell, a confidant eunuch beside Xiao Qingyu shouted loudly: "His Royal Highness Luo is here!"

Everyone turned their gazes in unison. When Mu Chu saw Xiao Luochen who had disappeared for a few days and then reappeared, he couldn't help feeling a little more confident in his heart.

Fortunately, although this man is a bit unreliable, but he is so active in helping her, he probably won't be willing to give up all his previous efforts.

"The Ai family didn't expect that King Luo would be so concerned about digging graves, but the Ai family thought that this idea was all from Luo Wang!"

The queen mother easily put all the responsibilities on Luo Wang's head.

After all, Xiao Luochen personally invited the imperial decree, and Mu Chu, to put it bluntly, was just an executor.

Mu Chu stared at the man sitting in the wheelchair without losing the slightest demeanor. On the pitch-black robe was a purple and gold python. Those eyes embroidered with gold-green silk thread seemed to be on the inside of the robe. Lived normally.

"This matter is indeed my king's idea!"

When Mu Chu heard this, he was slightly taken aback.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Luochen accepted the move so easily.

He slowly turned his head to the side, his perfectly perfect side face shone with brilliance, those dark eyes fell on Mu Chu, and Mu Chu felt the pressure doubled.

"She's just listening to my king!"

The queen mother was surprisingly satisfied with Xiao Luochen's reaction. If Mu Chu could not successfully prove the cause of the eldest princess' death this time, and could not find actual evidence in the coffin, then this crime of deceiving the king would be enough to make King Luo fall into the trap. Hell, the queen mother was excited, but she was even more careless.

She turned her head to look in Xiao Qingyu's direction, the corners of her mouth slightly bent: "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Xiao Qingyu's face was so cold that Mu Chu couldn't help but be speechless. At such a young age, this little emperor always had a face that everyone owed him millions of taels, and he didn't look angry at all.

In contrast, although Xiao Luochen's face was a little paralyzed, at least in normal times, he would bury any emotion deep in his heart, as calm as a lake without the slightest ripple.

"let's start!"

This order was issued by the little emperor to Mu Chu.

Mu Chu pursed his lips lightly, walked directly to the side of the coffin, stretched out his hand and pushed, and removed the heavy Longyang wood from the coffin lid.

In the coffin lay a corpse that had become bones. Mu Chu frowned slightly, and immediately ordered someone to carefully lift the corpse out.

Along with Mu Chu, there are several very powerful assistants.

These people are very famous in the imperial city, and they are also for the sake of convenience and justice.

Mu Chu didn't look at the other parts of the corpse, but carefully checked all the injuries on the bones, and preliminarily judged that the corpse did not have any traces of death from external force.

For the rest, there are only two possibilities.

One is death from illness, and the other is poisoning. Although many kinds of poisons will turn black when soaked in bones, some poisons are very hidden, even after death, there is no way to find out.

The queen mother was very interested and asked someone to set up a tent not far away.

The emperor, King Luo and the queen mother all sat in the tent quietly waiting for the result.

Mu Xue was excited, and would stretch her neck and look over here from time to time. The movements of Mu Chu's hands have never stopped since the corpse was taken out of the coffin.

However, after a stick of incense passed, the other two masters who had seen the bones shook their heads.

"Empress Dowager, Your Majesty, this corpse died of illness, without any trace of poisoning!"

Mu Chu was a little dazed. The coffin should belong to the eldest princess, but he didn't expect such a result.

It is impossible to have any poison that can poison people to death without remaining on the bones.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows, snorted coldly, and stared fiercely: "Mu Chu, what else do you have to say?"
