Chapter 859: The Truth
Many members of the royal family couldn't help but let out shocked noises when they saw this scene.
"This person is Dongying Killer Xue Wumei! I recognize that mask! β
"It really wasn't Madame Dongling's doing!"
Mu Zisu said in a loud voice: "Little junior brother! β
Yan Ci held the bundle of immortal ropes in his hand and escorted Xue Wumei over.
"Master Heng, do you recognize her?"
"How could I recognize Xue Wumei!"
Mu Zisu sneered and said, "When Duanmu Yu was assassinated by Xue Wumei, Lady Dongling was in the Red Sleeve Hall hundreds of meters away. This point is testified by Mrs. Dongling's personal maid A Jin. At dawn, the waiters outside the Ming and Qing Dynasty halls heard the exclamation of the little young master, and when they came in, they found Mrs. Dong Ling fainting in the hall with the murder weapon in her hand. Later, when you received the news, you immediately ordered someone to arrest Lady Dongling. You relied on the testimony of the young master and Mrs. Dongling who was present to determine that she was the one who killed her. There are already loopholes here, how could Mrs. Dongling still be inside if she killed someone, and she fainted in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. This suspicion of framing is too obvious, right? β
Duanmu Heng said: "It is because this incident is so strange that she can pretend that she has been wronged and deceive everyone, including ignorant and stupid people like you!" β
"Duanmu Yu's cultivation is very strong, Mrs. Dong Ling has already broken her work because she gave birth to a little young master, and it is impossible for an ordinary person to kill a monk! Xue Wumei, tell me for yourself, how did you kill Duanmu Yu. β
Xue Wumei said: "Duanmu Yu was overworked a few days before he died, and he didn't find our Dongying's fragrance at all. When he temporarily lost his resistance, I killed him and pierced his heart. β
Duanmu Hengsheng flicked his sleeves angrily, "You are talking nonsense!" Mrs. Dongling didn't break the gong at all! She, sheβ"
"What's she?"
Duanmu Heng trembled with anger, but he couldn't say a word.
Mu Zisu smiled: "Can't tell? Then listen to me. Why did the waiter who found out that the lord had been assassinated die the next day? He must have known something to be killed. Later, after you found out that we infiltrated the royal city, you sent the sovereign's nurse, Mama Lin, to poison Mrs. Dongling in prison and lure us to attack. β
Flying Dragon General Li Qingyang stood up and said, "When I was cleaning the dungeon, I saw Mama Lin's corpse and the poison in the bowl next to her. She committed suicide by poisoning her after failing to poison her wife, and the poison was hidden under her tongue. β
Mu Zisu continued: "Mama Lin's daughter is seriously ill, and she needs a lot of silver, and I found this silver in her house. Secondly, the royal city is heavily guarded, and no one but your people can enter the cell so coincidentally. Your purpose is for us to kidnap Lady Dong Ling, and then kill the Second Elder and the Third Elder who have always had conflicts of interest with you, put all the blame on Lady Dong Ling, and sweep away all those who hinder your ascension to the throne! You use the topic to incite the monks of Yunmengze to look for Lady Dong Ling, and you will be even more famous, gather people's hearts, and ascend to the throne under the watchful eye of everyone, then you can sit back and relax! β
Duanmu Heng's eyes widened angrily, "You spew blood!" β
Xue Wumei bowed her head and said, "I have a token on my body that can enter and exit the royal city at will, and it was given to me by Lord Duanmu Heng. β
Mu Zisu took it out of her arms and held it up for everyone to see, "This is a token that only your royal family has, Duanmu Heng!" Now you have nothing to quibble! β
