She took out the medicated oil from her bosom and gently wiped Mo Yanli's face.

Soon, the prince's original face was exposed to the two of them. The strange thing was that his face was not the purple-blue color that people who died from swallowing gold usually had, but was dark purple in patches, even purple to the point of being black.

This was clearly a death from poisoning, not from swallowing gold as the outside world said.

Who on earth smeared this unknown medicine on the prince's face to cover up the black aura of poisoning, and this medicine cannot be wiped off with ordinary water.

Fortunately, Mu Yan had experience from her previous life, so she brought some potion for wiping.

Then she checked the prince's mouth. The moment he opened his mouth, a rotten smell came to her face, but there was also a very special fragrance in the rot. She held back her nausea and took a closer look.

Mo Yanli's throat was very swollen, and his entire mouth and internal organs were corroded by metal, so there was such a bad taste in his mouth.

If there hadn't been an unknown drug smeared on Mo Yanli's face, his condition would indeed be more consistent with death from swallowing gold.

But he had just died not long ago, and the degree of decay in his mouth was not that serious. Moreover, a person who swallowed gold would definitely scratch himself desperately due to suffocation when dying. Mu Yan just checked Mo Yanli's fingers, and there were no scratches on his nails.

So there is only one possibility, that is, he was poisoned to death first, and then someone stuffed gold into his mouth, creating the illusion that he committed suicide by swallowing gold.

Mu Yan expressed his thoughts.

Mo Yuche thought for a moment and said, "Can you tell what kind of poison he was poisoned by?"

Mu Yan glanced at Mo Yuche's expression. It seemed that he already had the answer, but he was not sure.

To ensure accuracy, she sniffed Mo Yanli's mouth again and frowned: "This scent seems to be the same as the poison you were poisoned with last time."

Because the smell of decay was blended with the aroma, Mu Yan didn't know that Mo Yuche had been poisoned by the Western Region Hundred Flowers Powder just by the smell like last time.

"How did you get poisoned last time?"

If Mo Yanli was also poisoned by the Western Region Hundred Flowers Powder, then the person who poisoned him might be the same person who poisoned Mo Yanli.

Who knew that Mo Yuche would actually shake his head after hearing this, "I don't know who poisoned me, but that person's figure looks very similar to King Wei."

Mu Yan took a deep breath and gritted her teeth and said, "Do you suspect Mo Xingchen?"

Mo Yuche nodded. He encountered a group of assassins that night. With his martial arts skills, it would have been no problem for him to deal with these people. However, Jiang Nianchen blocked the poison needle for him, and his life was in danger. This made him panic.

Not only did he let the leading assassin escape, but he was also poisoned by the Western Region Hundred Flowers Powder.

After hearing this, Mu Yan suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Jiang Nianchen fainted after being poisoned by the needle.

No wonder I ran into Mo Yuche outside the door when I went to Prince Wei's Mansion to look for the Seven-Star Begonia, because he was looking for the antidote.

It turns out that all these things are related to Mo Xingchen.

However, these are just speculations at the moment and no one has any real evidence.

But if it was Mo Xingchen, how could he have a poison like the Western Region Hundred Flowers Powder? This poison is the unique secret technique of the Western Region Wu Family. How is he related to the Western Region Wu Family?

First it was Dongfan, and now it’s the Wu family in the Western Region. In her previous life, she never knew what Mo Xingchen had to do with these people, and how many things he had hidden from her.

When the two walked out of the East Palace, Mu Yan stared at the starry sky, feeling as if a huge net was woven above her head. She immediately asked, "If the leader of the assassins that night was Mo Xingchen, then why did he chase you?"

She didn't think that Mo Xingchen would chase and kill King Han, who commanded a large number of troops, for no reason. If it wasn't for something important, he would never put himself in danger. After all, everyone knew that King Han's martial arts skills were unimaginable.

What on earth could have happened that would make Mo Xingchen risk exposing himself to hunt down Mo Yuche?

Mo Yuche couldn't hide the admiration in his black pupils. What an extremely smart woman. She thought of the key to the matter so quickly.

"Because I discovered something that is related to the secret of Mo Xingchen's life experience, but there is no definite evidence for this matter, so I can't tell you for the time being."

As soon as these words came out, Mu Yan's head started buzzing like a bronze bell.

The secret of Mo Xingchen's life?

Is there any doubt about his identity?

Even though his status among the princes was not high, he was still a child of the royal family. If there was a problem with his status, the consequences would be unimaginable...

Mu Yan nodded after she recovered from her shock. She also knew how important the matter was and how big its impact would be.

Then if the person who poisoned Mo Yuche was Mo Xingchen, then he was most likely the murderer who killed the prince.

But this is just their speculation and there is no real evidence.

Suddenly Mu Yan frowned deeply and said to Mo Yuche, "The real reason you asked me to come here today is not just to investigate the cause of the prince's death, right?"
