The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

Re-autopsy?

Qin Wei frowned and glanced at Prince Gong's body. Not seeing anything wrong, he looked up at the calm Su Yuejian and frowned even tighter.

The three top figures were silent for a long time, and even the queen who always spoke for her remained silent. The atmosphere was depressing and quiet.

After a long pause, the Queen finally spoke, "Minghua has just proven the difference in the poison. This matter seems to have nothing to do with them. Your Majesty, the matter of Prince Gong should be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for a thorough investigation."

"Dean Wen is the imperial physician after all, so it's understandable that he's not familiar with the work of a coroner..."

Su Yue bowed and said, "Lord Qin said that Dean Wen is an expert in detecting poisons, which is something that even a coroner cannot compare to. In order to thoroughly prove the innocence of my brother and I, we should conduct a thorough investigation."

The prince also agreed with her. If the matter was resolved so hastily, it would always give people something to talk about. He stepped forward and made a request together. The emperor was silent for a long time before nodding.

Wen Zhiling was like a confused monk, and he couldn't understand what Su Yuejian wanted him to investigate. While examining the corpse, he was struggling in his heart, wondering whether it was a crime of deceiving the emperor or betraying the friendship of his master.

Seeing Wen Zhiling's worry and confusion, Qin Wei curled his lips. It seemed that this was just Su Yuejian's delaying tactic.

She must be waiting for the Regent to come and support her, but unfortunately, he is too busy to do anything else!

Just as he was feeling somewhat proud, he heard Wen Zhiling exclaim, "This is!——"

Everyone's attention was drawn to his voice. Wen Zhiling lifted Prince Gong's clothes, revealing two red and dry legs. He smelled them carefully and exclaimed in surprise.

"His Royal Highness Prince Gong has been poisoned by two kinds of poison!"

Pointing to the marks on his legs, she showed them to everyone, "Your Highness's skin has been burned red and rotten by the Red Lotus's Burning Heart. You can't see it unless you look closely. There are large red spots on your burnt and wrinkled skin, and they smell of peach blossoms. It's the poison Peach Blossom Stain."

Cui Yingyu, who was listening attentively, blinked. Peach Blossom Village? Peach Blossom Village?

Thinking of this, she felt a pang of pain in her heart. She had become a paper man. There were no mobile phones or televisions in ancient times. Wouldn't she be able to watch even a melodramatic variety show?

Su Yuejian was about to nod when she heard sobbing beside her. She turned around and saw Cui Yingyu's red eyes staring at Prince Gong's corpse, and she couldn't help but feel puzzled.

She used to hate Prince Gong to the core, so why is she crying now?

Feeling the doubtful scrutiny from the people around her, Cui Yingyu's expression immediately changed. She tugged at Su Yuejian's clothes and said pitifully, "Mom, I'm scared, ah."

Su Yuejian's eyelids twitched, and she saw her burrowing into his arms again. Su Yuejian pried her hands away and said through gritted teeth, "The show is over."

At this time, everyone's attention was on Prince Gong and they did not notice the tug of war between the two.

Concubine Ru's eyes were red and swollen. Looking at Prince Gong's tattered skin and flesh, the grief that had just been suppressed surged up again. Her voice was hoarse from crying, and she just kept begging the emperor to make a decision.

Although the emperor has been fond of her for many years, he only has one son, Xiao Chengchang.

With the emperor doting on Xiao Chengchang, she thought she and her son would one day ascend to that high position. But now, her only hope was gone...

It's not just the pain of losing a child, but also the pain of being cut off from wealth and high status.

"So what if he was involved in a love affair? Prince Gong clearly died from the burning of his heart by the red lotus." Qin Wei frowned and questioned Wen Zhiling.

Wen Zhiling glanced at him sideways and ignored him. He walked up to Su Yanzhou, sniffed him, and checked his five fingers. Su Yuejian was prepared and stretched out his hands for him to check.

"Your Majesty, I can assure you that the death of Prince Gong had nothing to do with them." Wen Zhiling bowed. "The most striking characteristic of the peach blossom poison is that it leaves traces. Even if you clean it up thoroughly, it will still leave traces between your fingers. The smell will take at least a day to dissipate."

"Prince Gong was poisoned and died within half a day. If the person who poisoned him had done so, there would have been traces on his hands. I have checked Princess Minghua and Lord Su, and there is no trace or smell on their hands."

The Queen Mother was puzzled. "Since he had the Red Lotus Burning Heart, why did Chang'er also get poisoned by the Peach Blossom?"

Wen Zhiling stroked his beard. "The prince's peach blossom poison wasn't too deep. He wasn't deliberately poisoned, but got it from someone else. And there are only bloodstains on his legs. It must have been someone close to him or someone who had access to his legs."

The person in the higher position nodded slightly, and the prince breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the leader of Minghua County was very smart.

Su Yue saw it and said, "Although Concubine Cui is crazy, her words may not be false. Of course, the doctor will touch her legs when treating her."

Qin Wei continued to nag her, his tone more suspicious than ever. "Princess Minghua knew he was involved in a scandal just by looking at the corpse?"

Lu Zhan frowned in displeasure and was about to start a fight, but Su Yuejian spoke first, "I'm naturally sensitive to smells. As soon as the person was brought in, I smelled the scent of peach blossoms. Besides..."

With a wave of his sleeve, he let him see the pile of poison in front of him clearly, "If I can't even recognize the peach blossoms, then these will become decorations, right?"

In fact, what she said was half true and half false. She detected the peach blossom stain on Wuji. Wuji had been tracking the old poison monster and appeared in Kyoto. In addition, the poison in his body was not simple, and it was very similar to the method used by the old poison monster.

Originally, when Qin Wei took out the medicine bag, she wanted to perform an autopsy. Sure enough, she smelled the familiar scent of peach blossoms on Prince Gong's body during the autopsy, and her guess became 70% to 80% reliable.

But no one expected that this poisonous old monster would suddenly kill Prince Gong in his own lair. Thinking of this, Su Yue's eyebrows moved slightly.

Qin Wei had no idea that before entering Prince Gong's Mansion, the old monster Du had fought with someone. In addition, Prince Gong had been wearing makeup these days, and there was always some fragrance of makeup on his body. Of course, he didn't care about the peach blossom scent.

He looked at Su Yuejian with a stern face, "Princess Minghua, you are the guide, but rumors are rife in Changlefang that you were not with Princess Cailuan this afternoon. Your whereabouts are unknown, and you know how to treat poisons. How can you prove that the doctor who went to Prince Gong's residence today wasn't you?"

"Master Qin, do you have a grudge against me? Or do you have a grudge against my brother?"

Qin Wei choked, his face darkening. However, he couldn't break the rules in front of the emperor and the others. He suppressed his hatred and half-lowered his eyes. "Of course not. I handle cases impartially. Everyone involved is a suspect. This is the key to investigating a case."

"Master Qin, your words are not frank." Su Yuejian raised an eyebrow and chuckled, "You are clearly holding on to me and I won't let go. Your words sound more like an irreconcilable hatred. You don't treat me as a suspect, you clearly treat me as a murderer!"

"you!--"

"First, you slandered my brother for plotting to murder the prince, then executed him without thorough investigation. Then, you shifted the blame to me. Now, all the evidence shows that neither of us had anything to do with the Prince Gong Mansion incident, yet you still persist. It's hard to believe you have no selfish motives!"

"You said I went to Prince Gong's residence to treat him? Then please provide clear evidence!"

Qin Wei choked, his face pale and ugly. He really had no other evidence now. He was secretly angry. He didn't expect that Su Yuejian was so difficult to deal with!

Seeing his stiff expression, Su Yuejian sneered, "Since there is no such thing, then Lord Qin is framing him! And he even resorted to lynching!"

She knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, Empress, and Empress Dowager, please make the decision for me and my brother!"

Qin Wei also knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please investigate. Princess Minghua is a serious suspect. I will investigate the case according to the law and have no selfish motives!"

The emperor was silent with a cold face. At this moment, the palace servants' voices came from outside, "The Regent has arrived!——"
