My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes looking at Xue Youli suddenly became subtle.

Shen Ruolan was implicated by Meng Yishu last time and was under house arrest for ten days. She was only released today.

She hated Xue Youli so much that her teeth itched. How could she hold her temper any longer? She was the first to jump out, "Lady Xue, you are so bold! How dare you murder the heir to the throne!"

Xue Qingyao looked at this scene, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

She secretly sprinkled the pollen on Xue Youli's shoulders while Xue Youli was treating Murong Xi.

At that time, the concubines' attention was all on Murong Xi, and no one noticed her little movements.

She also took advantage of the chaos to throw the rice paper containing the pollen into the lake outside the pavilion.

The rice paper she used was not only available in all palaces, but also was so thin that it would be soaked in water and rot.

The body was completely destroyed without any trace.

She thought that today's plan was quite clever, with both witnesses and evidence available. Even if Xue Youli had extraordinary abilities, he would be unable to defend himself.

However, Xue Youli ignored Shen Ruolan's accusations.

She raised her hand, pinched some pollen on her shoulder, and crushed it between her fingertips.

The fingertips were instantly dyed light blue.

The pollen is of a strange color and is not the pollen from the flowers in the imperial garden.

She had read in a medical book that there was a flower called Blue Jasmine in the Western Regions whose pollen was light blue and would glow blue-purple when exposed to sunlight, which was quite similar to the pollen on her body.

Of course, she didn't point it out directly. Instead, she turned to ask Doctor Cheng, "Doctor Cheng, could you please identify what kind of pollen is on me?"

Doctor Cheng took out a tool from his medicine box and brushed the pollen off Xue Youli's clothes onto a pure white handkerchief. After carefully examining it for a moment, he replied, "Ladies and gentlemen, the pollen on Lady Xue is from the blue hibiscus flower. The blue hibiscus flower is native to the Western Regions and is rare and precious."

Xue Youli frowned, "I've never been to the Western Regions, let alone had the opportunity to come into contact with blue hibiscus flowers. The appearance of this pollen is extremely strange."

"Blue chrysanthemum?"

Today's flower-viewing banquet was hosted by Concubine Ning. With such a big thing happening, she naturally had to come out and take charge of the situation.

At this moment, she repeated these three words and pondered, "I remember that there are indeed blue chrysanthemums in the palace. They were given to the Empress Dowager as a birthday gift by the Marquis Ding'an who was stationed in the Northwest Camp last year. Later, the Empress Dowager only gave them to Concubine Chun and Concubine Li..."

Concubine Li rolled her eyes and interrupted her rudely, "What do you mean by that? Could it be that I used pollen to harm the little princess?"

Song Jingsi glanced at Xue Youli and said calmly, "I thought that Concubine Chun and Concubine Li loved the little princess very much and would never harm her. Since the blue chrysanthemum flower is only found in the possession of these two concubines, how could they, with their intelligence and wit, have left behind such crucial evidence?"

She paused deliberately, emphasizing her tone, "So, I dare to speculate that someone murdered the little princess and deliberately framed the two ladies."

Concubine Ning actually admired her. "Song Zhaoyi's guess is not without reason. But who in the harem is so bold as to frame Concubine Chun and Concubine Li's sister?"

At this moment, someone suddenly asked, "What if someone takes advantage of the emperor's favor and acts recklessly?"

Concubine Li sneered and defended herself, "The Emperor favors me the most in the entire harem. Are you referring to me?"

The person who had just spoken was a seventh-rank talent. When she met Concubine Li's questioning gaze, her legs went weak with fear and she knelt down. "I dare not! Your Majesty, Concubine Li, please understand!"

Xue Qingyao added at the right moment, "Blue Jasmine pollen might be hard for others to obtain, but Lady Xue went to Concubine Li's Yongchun Palace for tea yesterday. If she wanted to collect pollen, it shouldn't be a difficult task, right?"

"That's right! If Concubine Xue stole the pollen while Concubine Li wasn't paying attention, then everything makes sense!"

This group of women sang in unison and tacitly deduced the process of Xue Youli's crime.

However, Rong Fei, the victim's mother, just listened quietly and did not express her opinion.

Shen Ruolan, on the other hand, was eager to convict Xue Youli. "Murdering the heir to the throne is a capital offense! Xue Youli even attempted to frame Concubine Li, which is an even greater crime!"

Xue Youli curled her lips coldly, "You say I stole the pollen and murdered the little princess, but where's the evidence? You can't convict me based on nothing."

No matter what happens, you must not fall into the trap of self-incrimination. Whoever claims guilt must provide evidence.

Shen Ruolan shouted, "The blue hibiscus pollen on your body is the evidence!"

Xue Youli's eyes darkened, "Someone deliberately sprinkled the pollen on me to frame me."

Shen Ruolan glared at her fiercely, "You said someone else framed you, but I said you wouldn't cry until you saw the coffin! Concubine Rong, I think we should just throw Xue Youli into jail and let the people from the Criminal Justice Department torture her severely to see if she admits it..."

"The Emperor has arrived——"

Before she finished speaking, a notification came from outside the pavilion.

When everyone saw the bright yellow figure, they hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Highness."

After Murong Che finished his morning court session, he heard that Murong Xi had an accident in the Imperial Garden, so he rushed over immediately.

On the way here, he had already learned the general situation from the palace servants.

At this moment, Murong Che's cold eyes swept around and finally looked at Doctor Cheng, "How is the princess' health?"

Doctor Cheng reported truthfully, "The little princess had an asthma attack, but fortunately Lady Xue treated her in time and she is now out of danger."

Murong Che's tense face relaxed a little.

However, before he could say anything else, Shen Ruolan couldn't wait to speak, "Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Cheng said that the little princess's asthma attack was caused by inhaling pollen, and Concubine Xue happened to have pollen on her body!"

Murong Che ignored her and glanced at Concubine Rong, "Does Concubine Rong have anything to say?"

Rong Qingyue held her daughter's hand and replied in a strong voice, "I beg Your Majesty to find out the truth and find out who is trying to harm my daughter."

Everyone has said so much just now, but it's all just speculation, and there is no evidence to identify Xue Youli.

After listening for so long, Rong Qingyue guessed that someone wanted to use her daughter to eliminate Xue Youli.

This person dared to hurt her daughter, so how could she allow him to fool her and kill her with a borrowed knife?

Seeing that she didn't push Xue Youli out, Shen Ruolan became anxious. "Your Majesty, Concubine Rong, think about it, the little princess suddenly had an asthma attack, and Concubine Xue happened to know how to treat it and cured the little princess. How could such a coincidence happen in the world? In my humble opinion, she had planned this all along!"

Song Jingsi also took the opportunity to step on him. "I heard that Concubine Xue often went to the library to borrow medical books some time ago. Could it be that she has been planning to attack the little princess since then?"

Before she entered the palace, Meng Xingzhi showed her favor to her. She thought Meng Xingzhi was good-looking, so she met him several times like playing with a cat or a dog.

At that time, Xue Youli insisted on coming to interfere, and the two of them became enemies.

No matter who set up today's situation, she hoped that the murderer was Xue Youli.

She accidentally witnessed someone borrowing books from the library, but she didn't expect it to become the most crucial evidence to identify Xue Youli.

The concubines present also took sides in the face of the current situation, "Your Majesty, please severely punish those who plotted to murder the little princess."

They used the little princess as an excuse to force Murong Che to deal with Xue Youli on the spot.

Xue Youli looked at Murong Che and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li can prove that I have never come into contact with Lan Zhuhua!"

Each side held its own opinion, and the concubines who were watching the fun all looked at Concubine Li.

At this time, Concubine Li's testimony was extremely crucial.

As long as she denies Xue Youli's words, Xue Youli will be finished!
