In the afternoon of the next day, the queen, who failed to commit suicide after waking up, was finally arraigned, but it was not Dali Siqing who proposed it first, but the criminal department Shangshu came to the door.

In the fraud case, only Mu Changde's confession alone cannot solve the case, at best, it can only clear the innocence of Mu Wuye's father and son and King Li, and Mu Changde does not know the other circumstances of the case, and the only person who knows about it is the only person behind the scenes.

It just so happened that Dali Siqing also wanted to interrogate the queen as soon as possible, so he agreed.

However, the queen had taken the mantra pill once before, and her spirit had already been stimulated, and now she was still in the recovery period, after all, there were some spiritual silks in the mantra pill, which would interfere with brain waves.

Therefore, Bai Tang suggested not to give her the Shingon Pill for the time being, unless she waited for her mental state to recover to more than eighty percent, otherwise it would easily cause mental weakness, and more seriously, accelerate mental breakdown.

This can make the two adults in charge of the prison bitter, no need for mantra pills, so how to judge, will the queen cooperate?

However, although the other party is already abolished, and is involved in the witch Gu case of the year and the current murder of the emperor, the other party is still the biological mother of the eldest prince and the wife of the monarch, and they cannot punish her.

Therefore, he could only listen to Bai Tang's opinion, and interrogated the other party with a bit of hope and luck.

Because the other party had suicidal tendencies after waking up last night, the prison officer knocked her unconscious in desperation and tied her hands behind her back.

At this moment, Mu Liangqing is still wearing the phoenix robe, even after all kinds of tosses, the phoenix robe is still as smooth as new, except for some soil layers and blood stains on it, it is not broken or wrinkled, which shows its quality and craftsmanship.

It's just that the other party's hair has been tossed repeatedly, which will have loosened, half hanging and half not falling, and a few strands of hair will fall to the forehead.

Mu Liangqing did not lower her head, although her spirit looked very sluggish, and her face was full of exhaustion and defeat, but she seemed to want to retain the last trace of dignity of the queen, straightened her back, her dark eyes were a little bloodshot, and she stared at the three people in the seat faintly.

When her eyes fell on Bai Tang, the light under her eyes became more and more dim.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing were looked at a little uncomfortable, after all, the other party was still a high-ranking queen before yesterday, but today they have become their prisoners pending trial, and looking at the other party's attitude, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with.

Dali Siqing quietly pulled down the sleeve of the Shangshu of the Criminal Department and motioned for him to ask first.

Mu Liangqing had already been escorted to the chair opposite and sat down, facing the three of them.

Bai Tang met the other party's deep eyes, and his mood did not change.

She is like this, she has never bothered with unrelated people, and it is difficult to provoke her emotions.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at the queen a little entangled, and was hesitating to speak, when he heard the queen's somewhat hoarse voice say, "You don't need to ask, this palace won't say anything." With that, he closed his eyes.

Dali Siqing and Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked sink, although it was expected, they still felt a headache and irritability.

"The Emperor...... Mu clan, let's not talk about anything else, just killing people and causing trouble, and faking a fraud case is enough to connect the nine clans, even if you don't care about yourself, don't you care about your relatives? The criminal department Shangshu said in a deep voice.

Dali Siqing immediately added, "The king decreed, King Rong is called to return to the imperial city, aren't you worried that this matter will affect King Rong?" ”

King Rong is the title of the great prince.

When Shangshu of the Criminal Department heard this, he immediately understood what he meant by adding one more sentence.

Thinking of the demoted Rong Guogong, he suddenly felt pitiful, if the Mu clan would really care about family affection, and would not use the hands of his brother to harm people and drag the entire Guogong Mansion into the water.

Fortunately, the queen still cared about her only son, and when she heard the words of Dali Siqing, she opened her eyes violently.

She gritted her teeth and said, "This matter is all done by this palace, and King Rong doesn't know about it." ”

"There is no basis for words." Shangshu of the Criminal Department snorted coldly and continued, "If the queen does not carefully explain the details of the case, so that the case is still in confusion, then the official can only investigate according to speculation, and ......who will be found at that time."

"You!" Mu Liangqing's eyes widened, and two clusters of flames finally lit up in his eyes that had been like stagnant water.

Seeing that it was useful, Shangshu of the Criminal Department suddenly rejoiced in his heart, but his face was still cold, and he continued to stimulate, "You have been the queen, you must understand the laws and regulations, and you also understand the temper of the king, if this case cannot be resolved quickly, what will happen if it drags on, you will probably know better than this official." ”

Mu Liangqing's face turned dead.

Of course she understands, of course she understands, and she also has a little regret in her heart at the moment.

At that time, she didn't know why she suddenly said those words impulsively, although those words were indeed her psychological words, and the last thing she should have done was to bring out the case of Concubine Xian.

With the monarch's personality and feelings for Concubine Xian, if it was just a fraud case at the beginning, it would be fine, but now there are more cases of Concubine Xian, I am afraid that if the case drags on again, what will the monarch really do, and the first person to be angry is definitely her son.

She is hopeless, but her son must not follow in her footsteps.

She closed her eyes hard, her face struggling in pain.

The three of them just watched her expression change, and didn't say anything more, but there was already a result in their hearts.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Mu Liangqing to open her eyes, and at this moment, the little spirit she had left seemed to be all drained away, and the whole person became more and more depressed and decadent, and even her back was bent a little.

She gritted her teeth fiercely, almost squeezing a note out of her throat, with deep hatred, "Ask!" ”

Dali Siqing and Shangshu of the Criminal Department were secretly happy when they heard this, and after glancing at each other, Shangshu of the Criminal Department coughed lightly and prepared to start the interrogation.

But at this time, Bai Tang, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Slow." Then he stood up and walked towards Mu Liangqing.

Dali Siqing and Shangshu of the Criminal Department both turned their heads to look at her, but they only saw her back.

Mu Liangqing turned his head to look at Bai Tang who came over, his eyes darkened.

Bai Tang took out a silver needle from his waist and quickly pierced it into the other party's Baihui acupoint, and then said, "This is called a lie detector needle, as long as what you say is not true, you will have a headache." ”

Mu Liangqing only felt a slight tingling pain on the top of her head for a moment, as if she had been pulled out of a hair, she couldn't see it herself and didn't understand what was going on, but after hearing the other party's words, her face turned red with anger.

"White! Wild plum! Mu Liangqing roared angrily, and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but was pressed by Bai Tang to sit down with one hand.

Bai Tang ignored her anger, turned his head to look at Dali Siqing and the Criminal Department Shangshu who were surprised and delighted, and said, "You can ask." ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department reacted, and did not investigate what kind of lie detector needle he was first, and immediately looked at Mu Liangqing, whose face was almost distorted, and began to interrogate.

"Mu Shi, did you instruct Mu Changde to kill Liu Jin and fake fraud to blame King Li?"

"Yes." Mu Liangqing gritted his teeth fiercely.

"Why do you want to frame King Li, but it has something to do with the eldest prince?"

"It's not...... Not. As soon as her words fell, she immediately gritted her teeth and snorted, her head subconsciously shook a few times, her face distorted, revealing obvious pain, obviously what Bai Tang said just now was true.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department and Dali Siqing couldn't help but stared at the needle on the top of each other's heads that was so small that it was almost invisible, and then glanced at each other, their expressions were much more relaxed.

Shangshu of the Criminal Department said angrily, "Mu Clan, in order to avoid pain, it is better to tell the truth!" ”

The headache was only a few seconds, but it made Mu Liangqing feel that a long time had passed.

She panted heavily, her body was a little weak, and she could only lean back on the back of the chair because she was pressed by Bai Tang's shoulder, and her face was much paler.

She gritted her teeth hard, tasted the bloody taste in her mouth, and stared at the Shangshu of the Criminal Department with hateful eyes, "Because I hate it, I hate Concubine Xian, I hate Wei Jiuli, I can't wait for them all to die!" ”

After this sentence, she didn't have a headache, obviously she was telling the truth, but the previous sentence was a lie, that is, half because of resentment and half for the eldest prince.

"Is the eldest prince involved in this case?"

"Nope."

Mu Liangqing was extremely happy at the moment, when her son was driven back to the fiefdom, she couldn't inform him of the plan.

Then she looked up at Bai Tang again, and the corners of her mouth finally hooked up a malicious and smug smile, "It seems that I want to thank you for proving my son's innocence." ”

Since the polygraph needle did not respond, it means that she is telling the truth.

Mu Liangqing thought that Bai Tang wanted to take the opportunity to help Wei Jiuli get rid of the rival of the eldest prince, but now he had done a disservice, and he must have regretted it and was annoyed.

However, she was going to be disappointed, because she didn't see any expected emotional changes from Bai Tang's face.

Dali Siqing and the Criminal Department Shangshu didn't know whether to be happy or worried.

Fortunately, the eldest prince did not participate, and at least because of personal grievances and emotions, the queen could not form a dispute for the crown prince, so she could avoid some fighting.

The worry is that the queen is now a prisoner, and she is still being tried by the two of them, I am afraid that her life will not be saved, and the eldest prince will not be able to resent the king, so he will definitely hate the two of them.

Although the eldest prince has not been doing well recently, he used to be the prince with the best chance of becoming the crown prince, and his foundation in the court is still very stable, and the scale is not small.

After that, the two of them will be annoyed.

However, although it was troublesome, the case still had to continue to be tried, and Shangshu of the Criminal Department sighed secretly and continued the interrogation.

Probably because he was afraid of the bone-chilling pain just now, so Mu Liangqing answered the questions after him obediently, without the slightest falsehood.

Soon, with her answer, the whole case was completely presented, including where the arrested Hui Niang said.

After finishing the confession, Shangshu of the Criminal Department said happily, "The official has finished asking." ”

Next is the turn of Dali Siqing.

However, the other party's situation is not as good as that of the criminal department.

Although Mu Liangqing still has questions to answer, in fact, Mu Liangqing really doesn't know much about the case back then.

She only knew that a few concubines seemed to be planning something in private, and it was aimed at Concubine Xian.

Because she also dislikes Concubine Xian, but as the mother of a country, she can't be criticized, and she wants to behave well in front of the king, so she hasn't shown it, and she hasn't made a move on the other party, and she planned to wait until she finds the opportunity to make a move in the future, but she didn't expect someone to make a move first, and she was naturally happy to take advantage of the fisherman.

Later, when the witch case broke out, she guessed that it was the concubines who did it.

As for which concubines they were, she only knew three of them, one was Concubine Shu who was executed ten years ago, and the other was Concubine Jing who died suddenly twenty-two years ago, that is, a year after Concubine Xian's death.

There is also a nobleman, but the other party later got into trouble because of jealousy and was beaten into the cold palace, and it has been more than ten years, and I don't know if he is dead or alive.

The place of the cold palace is almost isolated in the palace, once the person who enters the life and death will be left alone, if someone helps, he will dig a pit in the same place and bury it, such as Wei Jiuli lived in the cold palace There are two earthen bags, which are the loyal maids of the virtuous concubine and his nurse.

And if it is discovered by the attendant in charge there, at most it will be rolled up and thrown away, and if there is a good intention, it will naturally report the matter.

Bai Tang frowned, recalling that when she first entered the palace, she had been to many cold palaces in the palace, but her memory was empty, except for Wei Jiuli's one, I am afraid that the chance of the Ming nobleman still alive is very slim.

Dali Siqing also wrinkled his eyebrows, and asked a little unwillingly, "When you were the queen and ruled the six palaces, didn't you check it privately?" ”

Mu Liangqing smiled coldly, "Those people should be guided by someone behind them, they are very close, and I am afraid that some things are also brought into the palace by the other party, and since it is not good for the palace, there is naturally no need to risk exposure to investigate it deeply." ”

She was telling the truth.

When Concubine Xian became pregnant, Mu Liangqing was so angry that she was going to die, but the king still ran there every day.

At that time, she was still trying to figure out how to be a qualified queen, so she could only endure it, and in order not to be tongue-in-cheek, she also held tea parties several times and invited Concubine Xian and a group of concubines to gather.

However, Concubine Xian was always in bad shape after pregnancy because of her body injuries, so she basically refused.

And under this, Concubine Xian's unsociability, coupled with the fact that she is not only pregnant but also favored, has been jealous of many people, and Mu Liangqing is also deliberately secretly fueling the troubles, so many people regard Concubine Xian as a thorn in their side.

She would have noticed that there was a concubine conspiring because of a tea party, and the people around her overheard the conversation between the three of them.

At that time, Concubine Shu was not a concubine, she was just a third-grade concubine, and she seemed to have quarreled with Concubine Jing because of something.

The Ming nobles were persuaded by the side, and some clues were unconsciously revealed in the words.

Mu Liangqing only guessed from hearing the bits and pieces of words that they were plotting to do something to Concubine Xian, and there were not only the three of them.

She was also a little curious at first, so she sent someone to inquire.

There was one thing she didn't say.

It wasn't because she was afraid of being discovered or not interested that she didn't continue to investigate, but that she was sent to investigate and was killed by a sword in her bedroom.

She didn't know why she immediately thought of sending the chamberlain to investigate, and suddenly felt that that matter was really not simple.

But the chamberlain was killed quietly in her dormitory, and there were so many people in the dormitory at that time who didn't find out, and it must have been easy for the other party to take her life.

Therefore, she sealed the mouth of the people in the palace, and said that the slave was given death when he did something wrong, so she asked people to roll up the mat and dispose of the body, and then no longer investigate the matter.
