Seven hundred and eighty, persecution
"What is this doing, prince?"
When Zhou Yunxi arrived, the eldest prince stood straight in the middle of the imperial study, holding a long wooden box in his arms, roughly estimating, about one person tall.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yunxi's eyelids jumped suddenly.
Could it beβ
"Naturally, it's for my son's justice!" After hearing Zhou Yunxi's voice, the eldest prince opened his mouth viciously, and when he looked at Zhou Yunxi, he wanted to eat her alive, "Can't the princess guess!" β
"I don't understand what the prince said." Zhou Yunxi spoke slowly, unfazed, "What does Xiao Shizi's death have to do with me?" As we all know, I entered the palace with the prince this afternoon, how can I have the opportunity to do something to Xiao Shizi? β
"If it is an ordinary injury, of course this king can't think of the princess." The eldest prince's gaze became more and more ruthless, "But Wu'er did not die of external injuries, but was poisoned." β
"The poison didn't come on immediately, it took three hours." Saying that, the eldest prince was stunned, but no longer looked at Zhou Yunxi, but bowed his hand to Chu Ci, "Your Majesty, this medicine is exactly the same as the poison used by the princess to threaten her ministers before. β
"Please ask the emperor to seek justice for the son of the minister!"
"Your nephew is still young and doesn't know anything, only holding fresh gadgets and playing with sugar gourds, are you really ruthless enough to shield the murderer!"
The eldest prince is aggressive, and in just a few words, there is already a sense of persecution of Chu Ci.
As for the murderer, the eldest prince naturally decided that Zhou Yunxi was the murderer who killed his son! This is what he said, so why can't anyone hear it?
"Of course I will do justice for my nephew." Chu Ci's face was pale, and he couldn't see his joy or anger, "It's just that who this murderer is is still to be discussed, and you can't put the charge on the head of the princess without evidence." β
"The Qinhou Mansion is a big move, and it is not impossible to be used by someone with a heart to plant blame." Chu Ci smiled suddenly, "As for the poison that the imperial brother said the princess used to threaten you...... If you really want to investigate, I'm afraid you have to investigate the wound on the princess's neck to be clear. β
"What does the imperial brother think?"
Chu Ci's words made the eldest prince's face more and more gloomy, and his eyes were red, as if he was really angry because of the tragic death of his child. He placed the long wooden box he held flat with his hands on the ground and stared at it for a long time.
"Even in front of the child, does the emperor still want to protect the princess for his own selfish desires."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the imperial study changed suddenly.
They had guessed what the box contained, but it wasn't confirmed. At this time, when I heard the eldest prince say it himself, everyone's hearts also waved.
No one expected the eldest prince to be so ruthless.
"In that case, let's conduct an autopsy in public."
Zhou Yunxi narrowed his eyes and looked at the wooden box with pity.
Becoming the child of the eldest prince is his greatest sorrow. All the relatives of the mother's family died at the hands of the eldest prince, and now even this child is not spared.
If the eldest prince is smarter, hides a little deeper, and can endure a little more, maybe the throne of Da Chu will really be his.
For the cold-blooded emperor, the eldest prince has done the extreme.
"After the autopsy, we'll soon find out how the kid died, won't we?" Zhou Yunxi hooked his lips and looked at the eldest prince, "Since His Royal Highness King Yi can be determined that I did it without evidence, I want to get obvious evidence after coming to investigate, right?" β
"The king's child is dead, and you still want to disturb his peace!" After hearing Zhou Yunxi's words, the eldest prince glared at her angrily, and his angry appearance was like a good father, "Zhou Yunxi, how can you be so vicious!" "The starting point
"If you say that it disturbs the peace, the prince will not put him in the mourning hall after Xiao Shizi goes, but will lock him up in this small space and take him to the imperial study, if you want to say that you are vicious, how can the princess of this world be vicious to His Royal Highness King Yi?"
Zhou Yunxi didn't speak fast or loudly, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly. And the eldest prince also stared at her through gritted teeth because of Zhou Yunxi's words, wanting to peel her skin and bones.
"Since the princess said so, it would be wrong if this king didn't agree!" The eldest prince was annoyed and angry, and roared in a low voice, "Good! You want to perform an autopsy, and this king will let you do it! When the ironclad evidence is like a mountain, this king will definitely want you to go down and die for a life! β
"If the evidence is conclusive, one life should be worth one's life."
The words of the eldest prince did not make Zhou Yunxi feel timid, but glanced at the eldest prince with a smile. Xu is her gaze was too meaningful, so the eldest prince suddenly choked.
However, it did not prevent the eldest prince from still staring at Zhou Yunxi with that ruthless gaze.
"Your Majesty, the Queen's Mother, the courtiers have a request, I beg the Emperor to grant it." Zhou Yunxi said that he saluted Chu Ci and Liu Yue according to the rules of palace etiquette.
"Say."
Chu Ci squinted, he didn't mean to stop Zhou Yunxi from the beginning, because he knew that he couldn't stop it. Moreover, if the autopsy is really prevented, there is no other way to delay time.
Yes, stall for time.
When Qin Fengyi entered the palace, the eldest prince couldn't do anything else.
"The courtiers want to invite Miss Bai into the palace, and there are some questions that must be asked in front of Miss Bai." Zhou Yunxi's voice was very soft, and after finishing speaking, he glanced at the eldest prince as if he was inadvertent, "Presumably the eldest prince will not refuse, right?" β
"This kingβ"
"I'm right." At the same time as the eldest prince spoke, Chu Ci also responded directly. And after hearing the words clearly, the eldest prince could only choke on the words that came to his lips.
Now he doesn't have the confidence to openly disobey the Son of Heaven. He had to be careful not to leave any handle for Chu Ci. Otherwise, once there are signs, these trivial tricks can kill him.
"What did the imperial brother want to say?" The eldest prince was silent, but Chu Ci was not ready to stop there, "Fang Cai opened his mouth a little quickly, and in a trance, I heard that the imperial brother also had something to say?" β
"The emperor heard it wrong."
The eldest prince narrowed his eyes and replied softly. If it weren't for the unsuppressed anger on his face that betrayed him completely, he might have been able to coax a few people.
"So?" Chu Ci raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't believe it, but he didn't ask. He only glanced at Gonggong Wan and said, "Wanxi, go to King Yi's mansion and enter the palace with Xuan Baina." β
"Yes."
Father-in-law Wan should get down, and the cat withdraws with his waist down.
Zhou Yunxi looked at the eldest prince and looked at him without fear. Just thinking of the small box in the middle of the imperial study, or the small coffin, she felt a little vaguely sad in her heart.
Such a small child is really pitiful.
"This kid is only four years old, right?" Liu Yue said slowly, looking at the small coffin with a somewhat complicated and pitiful look, "It's so small, how can the villain do it?" β
"Cold-blooded people can naturally do it."
Zhou Yunxi sneered, his gaze swept over the eldest prince, making his eyes more and more cold.
