"So, in fact, in some ways, Your Majesty is right." Chi Xinian squatted down at the table of Qing Concubine and the others again, and said, "Today's incident is aimed at the palace, and the purpose is to fall into the reputation of the palace.

"If you want to keep your reputation and prevent rumors that this palace is useless, the best way is to catch the real culprit on the spot and close the case.

In this way, the people outside will focus on the real murderer and the case, and will not say too much bad things about the palace. The reputation of the main palace has been preserved.

"But..."

"But Niang Niang is not that kind of person!" Talking about Chi Xinian's personality, Xin Yi is full of pride, "The Chi family takes 'protecting the family and defending the country' as an ancestral motto and explains it to each generation of children and grandchildren, so the people of the Chi family have taken the protection of the weak and the protection of the people as their mission since they were sensible!"

"You once said that the soldiers threw their heads and spilled their blood outside, that is, they wanted to defend every inch of land and every person of Dajing.

"Although Xiaoqin is a slave and has a humble status, in your eyes, she must still be a citizen of Dajing and the object you should protect. In this way, of course, you will not use her name to gain some fame for yourself! ”

Her girl is so good!

For the people who were uprooted from their hometowns to return to their hometowns, she took out her own money to help the people displaced by the war, and took in orphans like her to take with her...

It's obviously a flawless quality, but when you put it in the palace, you become ignorant...

Xin Yi was suddenly a little sad, and Qingyun on the side was also very embarrassed when she heard it.

In the past, she only knew that she was a slave and her life was like a mustard, but she didn't think that there was really a noble person on top of her... Look at yourself that way.

She couldn't help but think that it would be nice if Xiaoqin was really the murderer.

There are witnesses and physical evidence, she can't escape, and she can be convicted immediately. In this way, things are early, and the queen no longer has to bear the reputation...

Wait a minute!

Qingyun suddenly realized that something was wrong!

"Niangniang, the slave has a doubt, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?" She raised her eyes and looked at Chi Xinian with a strange expression.

"What?" Chi Xinian bowed slightly, motioning for her to speak directly.

Qingyun frowned: "Your Majesty said that the murderer deliberately arranged such a play to damage your reputation, and to launch a murderer as soon as possible is to minimize the damage you suffer."

That's why he wants to convict Xiaoqin as soon as possible, and then quietly investigate with you.

"But... Isn't the reason why he can convict Xiaoqin is because Xiaoqin has poison hidden in her body? If Xiaoqin is not the murderer, then the poison is the real murderer hiding on her. This..."

"Are you saying that the murderer's act of hiding poison on Xiaoqin is not in line with the purpose he is pursuing?" Chi Xinian touched his chin and thought thoughtfully, "You're right, if you can't catch the murderer today, you can embarrass the palace, and if you catch it, you can make the palace breathe a sigh of relief."

"If that person really has the intention to embarrass this palace, he shouldn't hide the poison on Xiaoqin."

"Unless... Unless Xiaoqin is her only chance?! Chi Xinian suddenly thought of a possibility, so he hurriedly pushed down this line of thought, "Maybe if you miss Xiaoqin, he won't be able to stuff poison into others anymore."

"So, he can only risk blocking once?"

"But if you do this, the calculations ahead will still be affected." Qingyun shook her head, "The slave maid thinks that there must be other hidden secrets in this. ”
