Chapter 1720

An almost inaudible breath came from somewhere in the hall, as if someone was heaving a sigh of relief.

Before the aura had dissipated, Princess Haiyan said in a gentle voice: "It's okay. You don't have evidence, but I do."

Chi Shuang suddenly raised her head, her tearful eyes filled with astonishment, and she almost suspected that she had heard wrongly.

The mourning hall suddenly became as silent as death.

Madam Chi's hands tightened, her pupils trembling, "Did my son...really get murdered?"

At that time, An Xia did not comment, but only said in a calm voice, "Please come in, Lord Zhao."

Bei Hui bowed and accepted the order, then walked to the outside of the courtyard and bowed to Zhao Liren who had been waiting for a long time, "Please come in, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Liren dressed neatly and entered the room. He first bowed to the princess, then took the incense stick from Hong Que, bowed three times in front of the coffin, and then inserted the incense stick into the bronze censer.

After the ceremony, he said to Chi Shuang, "Miss Chi, I would like to borrow your table."

Chi Shuang was still a little dazed and nodded blankly.

Dong Xi used some skill to lift her up and stop her from kneeling. This lift made her heart ache. My god, this girl is as light as a piece of paper.

The guards carried tables and chairs out of the main room and set up the desk in front of the coffin.

Zhao Liren sat down and clapped his hands in shock. "Bring the witness up here."

When the witness was brought up, Shao, the second wife of the Chi family, who was being executed not far away and had her buttocks spread open, was suddenly awakened from the pain.

If it wasn't her dowry nanny, then who could it be? She asked for leave the first two days, saying that someone had come to her home, but it turned out to be someone who had come to the government office.

Shao thought desperately that what happened in the past could not be avoided today.

The dowry maid's surname was Wang. She confessed the truth word by word: "The poison was put into the medicine by the old slave himself, but the poison was given by my wife."

When these words were spoken, the Chi family was shocked.

Master Chi was furious. "Evil woman! What do you want?"

Her children were also incredulous, "How could mother poison uncle? She had no reason to do that!"

The rain was getting heavier. Lord Zhao looked up at the gray sky, and the rain curtain was getting thicker, and he felt very irritated.

The bloody Shao was carried up.

Lord Zhao slapped the wooden stick again, "Where did the poison come from? Tell the truth. If you tell even a lie, your crime will be tripled."

Even if they were executed, there were different ways of dying. How could a quick death be the same as a slow death?

Shao was filled with despair and fear, and hated Nanny Wang for betraying her.

She had forgotten to cry, and only knew to confess the truth, "The poison was given to me by Ying Ruolan, and I, I, was helpless."

What a helplessness!

Chi Shuang suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. She rushed over and beat her second aunt who was lying on the ground, crying, "Why! Why! Why did you kill my father!"

She hit Shao's bloody back again and again, using all her strength, and the pain made him almost faint.

Princess Haiyan did not stop it, and Lord Zhao did not stop it either.

Let her hit me, let her beat me.

If she is not allowed to vent, the anger in her heart will burn her lungs.

They felt sorry for the girl and were trying to overturn Chi Yue's case.
