"I was practicing alone in my room last night, and then the shopkeeper came over to bring me dinner......" Aotian recounted the events of last night.

Then, Ouyang Yunxiao on the side also added the matter of discovering that Aotian had fainted in the morning, and then took out the voodoo bottle they found in the morning and presented it to the Seventh Princess.

"It's this bottle, I guess it must have been secretly put on the table when the shopkeeper delivered the food!" Ouyang Yunxiao also said his guess.

Hearing this, the seventh princess nodded, frowned slightly and thought for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "Which of you went to ask Xiao Er to deliver the meal last night!"

"It's my granddaughter!" Ouyang Yunxiao didn't think much about it, and replied directly.

Hearing this, the Seventh Princess immediately set her eyes on Ouyang Mingzhu on the side.

Seeing the seventh princess looking at herself, Ouyang Mingzhu, who was a thief, had a faint hint of strange color flashing in her eyes, but in order to hide her weakness, she pretended to be irrelevant to herself, and she didn't open her mouth to explain anything, so as not to confess herself and show her feet.

Anyway, in her opinion, the shopkeeper is dead, and as long as she dies and doesn't admit it, she will definitely be fine.

The hint of strange color in Ouyang Mingzhu's eyes naturally did not escape the Seventh Princess's discerning eyes, and her expression and reaction also aroused the Seventh Princess's suspicions.

Growing up in the palace since she was a child, she can be said to have seen all kinds of people, and she is also used to seeing the intrigues between concubines, palace maids, and ministers, and has an extremely good understanding of people's psychological activities and facial changes, and also has a very sharp insight.

Although the seventh princess had some doubts in her heart, her face was silent, and a trace of essence flashed in her shrewd eyes, and then she smiled slightly and asked, "Miss Mingzhu, when you asked Xiao Er to deliver food last night, did you see any suspicious people, or something strange?"

"Back to the princess, the folk girl just found a little second at random and asked him to deliver us food, and she didn't notice any suspicious people and strange things!" Ouyang Mingzhu arched his hand, his face was calm, and his voice replied simply.

She thought that her expression was so calm, and she answered simply, without revealing any hindsight.

But it is precisely this that makes it even more suspicious!

If it was a normal person, being asked like this by the Seventh Princess, even if he didn't notice anything at the time, he would try to recall what happened at that time, so he must think about it first, and then answer, but this Ouyang Mingzhu didn't even think about it and said no.

This can only show one thing, she was the most suspicious person at that time.

"Well, that's it, is the shopkeeper you were looking for at the time the shopkeeper who delivered food to you later?" Although the seventh princess was suspicious in her heart, her face was still unmoved, because everything must pay attention to evidence, and as a princess, she can't wronged a good person without evidence, not to mention that this person is Ouyang Yunxiao's granddaughter.

"Back to the princess, it's the same person!" Ouyang Mingzhu replied with a calm look.

"Okay, I have a general understanding of the matter, so leave this matter to me! You all wait here for a while, and I'll go to the innkeeper and the shopkeeper to ask about the situation again!" said the seventh princess with a slight smile.

He immediately turned around and walked out of the room, and then came to the front hall of the inn with the two guards outside the door, called the innkeeper, and asked him to call the shopkeeper who delivered food to Aotian and them last night.

The princess's order boss did not dare to slack off, and immediately called all the shopkeepers in the store to ask who delivered food to Aotian's room last night.

However, after repeated inquiries, there was no result.

But at this moment, a shopkeeper suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but say: "Boss, I remember that the food delivered to those rooms last night seemed to be dead stone eggs!"

Hearing the little two's answer, the boss's face suddenly changed greatly.

The shopkeeper called Shidan suddenly fainted last night, and then died mysteriously soon after, when he also called the doctor to determine the cause of Xiao Er's death, but after the doctor checked it, he said that he died of poisoning.

At that time, he was very scared, thinking that there was something unclean in the store, which happened to be stolen and eaten by the shopkeeper, and then he was poisoned and died, otherwise who would poison a junior second.

So he was very worried that there would be guests who would also be poisoned and died, but fortunately, he didn't hear of anyone having an accident until just now, and he let go of his hanging heart.

But at this time, when he heard that the person the princess palace was looking for was a dead stone egg, the boss suddenly "chuckled" in his heart, and his whole body trembled slightly like a cold water empowerment, and he secretly said in his heart that something must have happened.

"Boss, what's going on, is that shopkeeper dead?" the seventh princess's face sank and asked sharply.

Hearing this, the boss was frightened, and immediately knelt on the ground again, and told the story of the stone egg poisoning and death last night with a trembling voice.

After hearing the boss's narration, the seventh princess's brows furrowed even tighter.

She had basically determined that the shopkeeper must have been instructed by someone to put the voodoo bottle in Aotian's room in the name of food delivery, and then opened the cork, but because the shopkeeper also inhaled some voodoo gas when he opened the cork, he was poisoned and died.

Referring to Ouyang Mingzhu's calm and calm appearance before, the Seventh Princess was even more sure that Ouyang Mingzhu should be the commander.

"Hmph, no wonder she is so calm, presumably she has long known that Xiao Er is dead, and this should be what she has planned for a long time, as long as Xiao Er dies, there is no proof of death, even if someone investigates it, it will be helpless against her! I really didn't expect this woman to be so vicious, but she thought that she was very clever and had done it seamlessly, but ......" A faint smile suddenly appeared on the face of the seventh princess, and with a roll of her eyes, she had already calculated it in her heart.

......

In the room, when everyone saw the seventh princess coming back again, they all focused their eyes on the seventh princess, and their eyes were faintly filled with expectation.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, what clues did you ask?" Ouyang Yunxiao asked with a fist on his face full of anticipation.

"Well, not only did I ask for clues, but I also asked who the murderer was!" said the Seventh Princess as she swept her gaze over everyone one by one, observing everyone's reactions.

Sure enough, except for Ouyang Mingzhu, everyone else had firm eyes, and they were faintly expecting her to say the name of the murderer, but Ouyang Yunxiao's eyes were slightly evasive, with a faint hint of emptiness.

"Who is the murderer?" Ouyang Yunxiao asked with a solemn face.

The other people in the room also looked serious, their eyes fixed on the seventh princess, waiting for her answer.

But the seventh princess did not directly answer everyone's words, but glanced at Ouyang Mingzhu, and continued: "The innkeeper said that the shopkeeper suddenly fell ill last night, and when he invited the doctor for treatment, he found that it was poisoned, and then the shopkeeper died, but he mentioned the black bottle before he died, and the shopkeeper should have guessed why he was poisoned at that time, so he told the boss about the black bottle, and also told the boss who the person who gave him the black bottle!"

Hearing this, Ouyang Mingzhu's eyes on the side couldn't help but show a hint of panic, after all, she was only eighteen-year-old Fanghua, although she was brutal and ruthless, but her heart and city government were not enough.

Moreover, what the seventh princess just said seemed to be the truth, and she glanced at Ouyang Mingzhu from time to time when she spoke, which also made her feel even more empty-hearted, afraid that the shopkeeper would really tell the truth before he died.

The seventh princess naturally saw the panic in Ouyang Mingzhu's eyes, but she still didn't reveal it directly, but suddenly came to Aotian's side and said in her ear: "Is there a grudge between you and that Ouyang Mingzhu?"

As she spoke, the Seventh Princess deliberately glanced at Ouyang Mingzhu a few more times to observe her reaction again.

Sure enough, Ouyang Mingzhu saw that the seventh princess seemed to be talking to Aotian, so her face changed slightly, and the panic in her eyes became even stronger.

"That's right, could it be that the person who poisoned ......" Aotian's face changed, and he immediately looked at Ouyang Mingzhu angrily.

Aotian had just heard the Seventh Princess say that she knew who the murderer was, so when she mentioned Ouyang Mingzhu at this moment, she immediately guessed that the murderer that the Seventh Princess said was Ouyang Mingzhu.

He had actually suspected Ouyang Mingzhu before, but he didn't expect it to be her.

The seventh princess did not answer Aotian's words, but nodded slightly, and then her face turned cold, and she looked at Ouyang Mingzhu sternly, and said, "The boss told me that it was a woman who handed over the black bottle to the shopkeeper......

Hearing the words of the Seventh Princess, Ouyang Mingzhu's heart was completely cold, her complexion became extremely ugly, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably.

At this time, Ouyang Yunxiao, Ling Xiao, and the three staff members of the branch also changed their faces, although the seventh princess did not say that the murderer was in this house, but she said that the murderer was a woman, and her eyes were still looking at Ouyang Mingzhu, could it be that the murderer she said was Ouyang Mingzhu?

The seventh princess did not directly say that the murderer was Ouyang Mingzhu, but said that the murderer was a woman, in fact, she wanted to further see Ouyang Mingzhu's reaction and confirm her guess.

After all, the stakes are high, and she can't wronged people at will.

But Ouyang Mingzhu's reaction had completely betrayed her psychology, and the Seventh Princess was already very sure that the murderer was Ouyang Mingzhu, who seemed to give people a sense of brutality and willfulness.

"Ouyang Mingzhu, are you still not going to confess your guilt?" the seventh princess walked up to Ouyang Mingzhu and suddenly said sharply.

Hearing this, Ouyang Mingzhu was like an ice cave, his whole body was agitated, and his head was also "buzzing", and his psychological defense line collapsed in an instant, and he immediately sat down on the ground with a "plop".

"Mingzhu, did you really do it?" Ouyang Yunxiao's face changed drastically, looking at Ouyang Mingzhu in disbelief, he really couldn't believe that his granddaughter was so vicious, she actually poisoned Aotian to kill Aotian, and also affected the innocent shopkeeper in the store.

"Yes, it's Miss Mingzhu!" The three staff members of the branch were also shocked, and looked at Ouyang Mingzhu in disbelief.

Although they all knew that Ouyang Mingzhu had a brutal personality, they didn't expect her to be a ruthless woman.

......
