Xie Yutang calmed down, it is true, these things that have happened from the assassin to the present, except for the prince's blatant words that slander her, are not verified, that is to say, they cannot be trusted by others.

You must know that the prince is not an easy guy to handle, he is scheming, if he doesn't come up with any evidence, it will only be Chi Wan who will suffer in the end. Xie Yutang nodded and said, "Then what should we do?" ”

"You better hurry back now to accompany King Chu, I just need to go back to the store and be safe." Chi Wan naturally set up defenses around the store, and she would know once someone broke in, "And this is not far from the palace gate, and the Chi family's carriage is parked there." ”

"I see." Xie Yutang was a little reluctant, but he turned around very obediently and walked back quickly, Chi Wan also left, and the two drifted apart.

In Changchun Garden, all the ladies and ladies were evacuated in order, the queen stood on the high platform with an anxious face, and the prince stood by the queen's side, accompanying his mother.

On the other side, the emperor's expression was not good-looking, he frowned and looked at the King of Chu in front of him with displeasure.

The king of Chu said: "Father, it is better to go to the back room to check again, and then come to check the maids who are in charge of serving tea and pouring water today, and ask and search their bodies one by one." And, of course......"

"Stop, stop," the emperor waved his hand to signal the king of Chu not to speak, "just now I have ordered people to take the tea and food from this entire banquet for poison testing, but nothing happened, and the guests present did not have any poisoning. It's been so big that I don't think the gangster will continue to act, so that's the end of today. ”

"Father, don't let go of a single detail!" The king of Chu saluted and persuaded the emperor, "What this gangster has done today has destroyed the face of the royal family, if this matter is spread and the reputation of the royal family is damaged, if the father does not quickly arrest this gangster and give everyone an explanation, how can he appease people's hearts?" ”

"Okay, don't make any noise," said the queen, "King Chu, it's not too early, let's stop today." Anyway, there is no threat to human life, so don't search like this anymore, and when the time comes, the palace and the emperor will definitely send people to continue to pay attention, and they will not let that gangster continue to do evil in violation of the palace latitude. ”

At this time, a voice came from the door: "Queen Mother, I agree with the opinion of the King of Chu, and think that it is better to continue the search." ”

The person who came in was Xie Yutang, his eyes swept over the four people in high positions, and finally locked on the prince's body: "I guess the person who was poisoned will not leave here for a while, and it can be caught earlier and the emperor's mind can be solved earlier." ”

The prince felt that Xie Yutang's eyes were ridiculous, was he suspicious of him? That's right, this matter really has something to do with him.

The queen is worried that if she and the crown prince continue to search like this, she will not be able to protect herself, and if she acts in a hurry, there will always be details that will expose them.

However, the prince was unhurried, and his fearless look puzzled Xie Yutang, and the prince said calmly: "General Xie is right, if you want to investigate, then continue to investigate, it is naturally good to arrest the people behind this scene earlier." ”

Three to two, the king of Chu won, and the emperor was helpless but had to acquiesce. He sat back in his dragon chair, and the queen sat beside him.

The king of Chu had already gone down and methodically instructed the people to continue to search for details: "Go and test the poison of these foods again, and search the ear room, and tell me if you find anything." Call the maid who handed Miss Chi Wan tea today to be tortured strictly, and it is best to ask something. ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the King of Chu!" The subordinates were ordered to scatter and perform their own work, of course, the king of Chu was not standing idly by, he also took the initiative to join them to help find out.

Xie Yutang, as a subordinate of the King of Chu, was naturally not idle, he was by the side of the King of Chu to help him observe any clues around him, sometimes discuss some things with him, and sometimes go to the side to check something.

The emperor was unhappy when he saw that the banquet had been such a mess, he rubbed his temples, closed his eyes and didn't want to look at the mess in front of him.

The queen sat in her place, her eyes closely following King Chu's every move, for fear that he would really find out something. She was nervous, but she couldn't show it, so she could only pray silently in her heart.

As for the crown prince, he unexpectedly did not stand aside but was busy with the king of Chu. However, it is obvious that he is disguised, but he is bored walking around, not actually working.

He was just waiting for an opportunity to do this, and since he couldn't harm Chi Wan, he still had a lot of schemes in his hands.

When the king of Chu finished checking the food in the back and was about to go to the front to continue checking, he was now very close to the emperor's position, but he was not too close.

He seemed to see something on the ground, so he crouched down, stretched out his finger and wiped the ground, looking intently.

And the crown prince took this opportunity to go around behind the king of Chu, he pretended to be nothing, but quickly took out something from his arms, and then only heard a clang, and the king of Chu's attention instantly shifted.

"What is this!" The crown prince squatted down and picked up the thing, and the attention of the emperor and queen was also attracted.

Suddenly, the crown prince exclaimed, and the emperor and queen fixed their eyes on it, this is a woodcarved villain, who looks mediocre but an ordinary puppet.

"What's the matter, what's there to be surprised about?" The emperor said impatiently.

"Father, you see, this fell from the king of Chu." The prince presented the puppet to the emperor, and the emperor took it and looked at the front and felt that it was the same, but when he turned to the back, he saw that his name and birth date were engraved on it with cinnabar.

"This! This! Those big characters were also deepened with cinnabar, which stabbed the emperor's heart eye-catchingly, and the queen on the side was also surprised, and took several steps back in fright: "Witch Gu technique!" King Chu, how can you have such an evil thing on you! ”

"Father, this is not a son's thing!" The king of Chu hurriedly denied it, but the prince said: "I was standing behind you just now, and I watched it fall out of your roe deer, why is it not your thing?" ”

The king of Chu knew that it was useless to confront the crown prince, so he had to turn to the emperor and say: "Father, you believe in the son, this is definitely not the son's thing!" The sons respectfully admired their father, how could they do such a ruthless thing! ”

The crown prince looked at the king of Chu with a wicked smile and said, "Father, don't you think it's strange? Since just now, it is clear that you and the Queen Mother have inspected this place repeatedly, but the King of Chu is still insisting on continuing to search, why is he so attentive to nothing? ”

The crown prince pointed at the puppet in the emperor's hand and said, "He is just to bury this puppet here, so as to curse you, father!" Father, think about it, Changchun Garden, this is the southwest of the palace, where the dragon raises its head. ”

"He buried such evil things here or suppressed your true dragon qi, father, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort, you will!" The prince didn't continue, but it would make people think even more when he got to the end.

"Shut up! Don't you want to talk those slanderous words! If you have no basis for talking, what right do you have to talk nonsense? ”

"There is no evidence in the mouth, the thing in the father's hand is the evidence!"

"You! Father, do you believe that your son, your son really didn't do anything! ”

The two princes quarreled, and the emperor at this time was already angry with the puppet in front of him, whether it was done by the king of Chu or not, this thing made people feel unhappy when they looked at it, plus those things just now, the anger that had accumulated in his heart suddenly came out.

"Okay, King Chu, I trust you so much, I didn't expect you to do such a thing to me!" The emperor walked in front of the king of Chu, the king of Chu knelt on the ground at this time, and the emperor looked at him condescendingly, "You are so sad in your heart." ”

"Father, you believe in the son-in-law, this is obviously someone who wants to frame the son-in-law! The father treats his son so well, how can the son do such a vicious trick to his father? ”

The emperor slammed the puppet in his hand to the ground, and the puppet slammed into the hand of the king of Chu, making him feel painful.

"You have to keep your eyes open and look at this thing, you were the only one there when the prince picked it up, who else could you do if you didn't do it?"

The king of Chu picked up the puppet to look at, but when he looked at the front, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart. This puppet was familiar to him, and he seemed to have seen it somewhere.

He carefully searched for memories in his mind, and finally remembered that when Mu Zhufeng was sentenced that day, this was the evidence brought back from his mansion, and this was the doll that Mu Zhufeng used to frame the prince at that time!

At that time, he also participated in the interrogation, so naturally he had seen this puppet, but since Mu Zhufeng had been arrested, this thing should have also been destroyed. And this back should not be engraved with the prince's birthday, why has it become the emperor now?

The king of Chu cast his eyes on the prince beside him, and the prince was also kneeling at this time, and he also turned his head to look at the king of Chu. His face was full of excited smiles, as if he was excited to see the King of Chu being framed by himself in the next second.

At this moment, the King of Chu instantly understood that this was the prince's plan, and he had fallen for it!

And at this moment, the prince must have found out that Mu Zhufeng was framed, so he would use such the same method against himself. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I was still negligent, but now I won't believe it if I say these words, so I still want to think about how to calm my father's anger.

"Why, speechless, I can assume that you have acquiesced to this?" The emperor sneered, he didn't want to believe it, but now he had to believe that this was how his favorite child treated him.
