The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

When Keren saw Emperor Sui Ming stand up, she was even more frightened. She crawled on the ground, not daring to raise her head, and just kept saying, "Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life!"

Emperor Sui Ming asked, "Do you know how to grow Gu?"

Keren trembled and dared not speak, so Emperor Ming said sternly: "Answer me."

Keren said tremblingly: "This slave, this slave is from Miaojiang."

Emperor Sui Ming gritted his teeth and asked, "Who gave you the courage to plant a poison on the prince?"

"I didn't... I didn't plant it. It was him. He forced me to plant the Gu in the Dingbei King, saying that if I didn't plant it, he would spread the matter of Concubine Xian. I was forced to do so, and when I was about to plant it in the prince, Concubine Xian and the prince left the palace. I really didn't plant the Gu in the prince. It's so unfair..."

"Beautiful!"

Two loud shouts rang out at the same time, one came from the guard, and the other came from Xiao Mubei!

Xiao Mubei also stood up, his face pale, his eyes red, he said word by word: "What does he want to announce about my mother?"

Emperor Sui Ming's expression became more and more ugly. After Xiao Mubei asked what he wanted to ask, he stared at the person kneeling on the ground.

Except for Chu Yunxi, no one noticed that the Queen's face was as pale as a ghost.

"Keren" knelt on the ground, shaking all over, his teeth chattering, but he couldn't utter a word.

Xiao Mubei lost his patience. He went down and grabbed the guard by the collar, and asked with red eyes, "Tell me, what happened to my mother?"

The guard suddenly laughed. He looked at Xiao Mubei with contempt and said, "Your mother is just your scapegoat. The one we want to kill is only you, King Dingbei!"

At this moment, even Chu Yunxi couldn't help but stand up. Xiao Mubei's finger joints turned white, and his voice trembled. "Why? What did you do?"

The guard sneered, "We only put a poison in her when she was pregnant, hoping that you would not be able to give birth. We didn't expect that you were lucky enough to give birth after all the trouble. The poison couldn't harm you, so it can only be kept in Concubine Xian's body. In the final analysis, it was you who killed your mother."

"You... you..."

Xiao Mubei clenched his fists tightly. If it weren't for his remaining rationality that allowed him to control himself, he would probably have killed the person in front of him with one punch.

"You're talking nonsense!" A clear voice rang out, as if a stream of clear spring suddenly blended into the tense atmosphere, easing the atmosphere.

Chu Yunxi walked slowly to Xiao Mubei's side, stretched out her hand to hold his fist, let him loosen his hand that was grabbing the guard's collar, patted him soothingly, then turned to face the man and said clearly: "No matter whether the prince can be born successfully, in your plan, Empress Xian must die, because the Gu is in the Empress' body. If the prince died in the womb, it would be one corpse and two lives. The prince was born successfully, and the Empress lived for more than ten years. So, it is the prince who saved the Empress."

The guard gritted his teeth and asked, "Who are you?"

Chu Yunxi smiled, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is who your master is. Who gave him the courage to harm the prince and the concubines? Could it be that he has great power in his hands, so great that he can ignore the palace rules and use evil witchcraft to harm people at will?"

Her voice became more and more stern, and Emperor Sui Ming's expression became uglier and uglier. The guard was actually overwhelmed by her aura and wanted to retreat. If he had not been kneeling, he would have probably retreated several steps.

Seeing that the guard still refused to speak, Chu Yunxi sneered, "Even if you are stubborn, do you think we can't find out? I tell you, His Majesty will definitely get to the bottom of this matter, and we will find out your identity clearly, because your crime is enough to confiscate your family and exterminate your clan. The palace strictly prohibits witchcraft. If you confess, perhaps His Majesty will show mercy and let you go. Otherwise, no matter how powerful your master is, he will definitely not escape the punishment of the law and palace rules."

The guard's face turned pale, and his eyes involuntarily looked at the queen, only to see that she was sitting there motionless, as if she had lost her soul.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Chu Yunxi didn't waste any words and walked up to "Keren" and said, "What about you? Would you rather be like him and have your family confiscated and your clan exterminated?"

"No...no, I said, I said, his master is..."

"Beautiful!"

"it's me."

Two more shouts rang out at the same time. After the guard scolded Keren, he looked up and was stunned.

Emperor Sui Ming turned around in surprise, only to see the empress beside him tremblingly standing up, her face as pale as a ghost, but her eyes were extremely firm. She said again, "Your Majesty, the one who ordered them was me."

"you…"

Emperor Sui Ming fell into a chair, as if all his strength had been drained away. He was filled with grief and indignation, "You... you are already the queen, the mother of the country, why are you doing this?"

The queen smiled with difficulty and said softly, "Your Majesty, do you remember that when you ascended the throne, our Mo'er was already ten years old. At that time, Mo'er was our only child. You told me that Mo'er would be the emperor in the future and I would be the empress dowager. Everything you have would belong to Mo'er in the future."

"Isn't it? Mo'er has always been the prince?"

Emperor Sui Ming's voice changed with anxiety, but the queen smiled bitterly, "But later on, you had more and more women and more and more children. I was afraid. I was afraid that someone would take over. I was afraid that someone would snatch things that originally belonged to me and Mo'er. So every time you had another child, I would ask someone to calculate whether this child would snatch from Mo'er in the future. After calculating six, everything was fine, and I gradually let go of my worry. But when it came to the seventh one, he," the queen pointed at Xiao Mubei, "before he was born, the fortune teller said that he was the destined son of heaven!"

Emperor Sui Ming's face changed drastically. He said in a trembling voice, "Are you going to kill Lao Ba and Concubine Xian just because of this sentence?"

"Of course!" The queen suddenly became fierce and seemed crazy. "The true prince is Mo'er, the prince is Mo'er, and the throne is also Mo'er. No one can take it away. Who is Concubine Xian? Why should her son compete with my son?"

"Snapped!"

The whole room suddenly became eerily quiet. The Queen fell to the ground after being slapped with all her strength by Emperor Sui Ming. She covered her face and finally burst into tears.

"Are you crazy? Can a fortune teller like him decide who I want to make the crown prince?"

Emperor Sui Ming walked back and forth like a trapped beast. When he came back, he stood in front of the empress and looked down at her. "Which fortune teller did you find?"

The Queen bowed her head and said, "I met this fortune teller in the temple when I went out of the palace to worship Buddha."

"How can you believe what that kind of person says?" Emperor Sui Ming thought she was hopelessly stupid.

At this time, Chu Yunxi's voice came coldly, "In addition to killing Concubine Xian and attempting to murder the prince, has the Queen done anything else that is extremely treasonous?"
