As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was originally laughing suddenly fell silent.

No one expected that this little kid could actually say the name of "Mo Gu San". Even the method of inspection was clear and organized, which was a bit like a coroner's poison test.

Bai Wanwan placed the silver hairpin on the table and clapped her hands, "Just check it as I said, it's correct.

"But we've all tasted it..." a eunuch stammered.

Bai Wanwan said in a sonorous voice:

"Someone added something to it later! I asked the imperial kitchen, and there's no problem!

Someone in the palace must have touched this bowl! They touched the poisonous one, so their hands must be black now! Call everyone here, I’ll see for sure!”

Qi Guangheng stared at her for a long while, then suddenly said in a deep voice, "That's right, I'll leave this matter to you to investigate. If you find the murderer, I'll reward you handsomely."

The palace erupted in an uproar. The Minister of Revenue took a half step forward and said, "Your Majesty, please reconsider! This child is only five years old, his hair hasn't even grown yet. How can you investigate such a serious case of poisoning?"

"That's right! Wouldn't it be laughed at if it gets out? They say that our dynasty has no one left and we have to entrust the affairs to a young boy!" The general who was born into a military family shouted in a hoarse voice.

There were also palace servants whispering, their voices like mosquitoes drilling into people's ears: "Look at her short legs, I'm afraid she can't even reach the table..."

"What if the investigation is wrong? Wouldn't it be like wrongly accusing a good person?"

Su Daji gently stroked the golden hairpins at her temples, and the sound of the pearls and jade clashing carried a hint of gentle admonition:

"Your Majesty, the Dali Temple Minister is leading his officials to investigate!

Letting a five-year-old child preside over the trial would not only make the officials dissatisfied, but even the people of the Xiongnu Kingdom would be dissatisfied.

In my opinion, it would be better to let Bai Wanwan just watch from the side. Why take this risk?"

Bai Wanwan stretched her little neck and moved closer to Qi Guangheng, saying in a baby voice:

"I can do it! Not only can I investigate the case, I can also cure him." Bai Wanwan pointed at Zuo Xian Wang who was lying on the bed.

The chief physician of the Imperial Pharmacy stroked his goatee and sneered before saying with a gloomy face:

"What does a young boy know? Prince Zuo Xian has been poisoned, and his internal organs have begun to rot.

Even if Hua Tuo and Li Shizhen were dug out of their graves, it would be too late to save the situation!

Everyone in Da Qi knows that this poison has no antidote. You're trying to show off by using a human life as an excuse!"

Several imperial doctors nearby immediately echoed this, some even shaking their sleeves and spitting on the ground:

"You really don't know your place! You even dare to make up such a huge lie just to curry favor with His Majesty.

If I kill Zuo Xian Wang, can you bear the consequences?"

The two Xiongnu doctors also narrowed their eyes and hummed in stiff Chinese:

"Our grassland witch doctors have examined him. The black lines on his chest have spread all the way to his neck. Even gods can't save him.

Little girl, don't play with human life."

Officials in the court were whispering to each other: "That's right! What does a five-year-old know about medicine? I'm afraid he can't even recognize the names of all the herbs!"

"If we can't find the real culprit, and if Prince Zuo's life is involved, the two countries will inevitably go to war!"

Princess Qi Yao suddenly rushed over, holding up the hem of her skirt, and pointed at the tip of Bai Wanwan's nose and cursed:

"Bai Wanwan! What are you thinking? To impress the emperor, you're even threatening the life of Zuo Xian Wang with a lie!

Did you know that he was the designated heir of the Xiongnu?

If I really die from your torture, can you afford the compensation?

I think you don't want to investigate the case at all, you want to destroy Da Qi!"

Lin Zao Zao gently shook her head and said in a soft voice:

"My sister! She's been extraordinary since she was little. She's always rushing forward in everything, wanting to take all the glory for herself.

You said that investigating and fighting drug crimes is not something a five-year-old child can get involved in.

She just loves to show off, and she wants everyone to praise her, her eyes are almost growing on top of her head."

She sighed, her tone full of helplessness:

"It's also my fault as her elder sister for not teaching her well enough, causing her to develop this eagerness for quick success.

This is no joke. If she messes up, she won’t be the only one to be implicated…”

Madam Jiang sneered through her nose. The sound was not loud, but it was filled with a sharp chill.

"That's right! This little girl is very capable! She has a sharp tongue and won't tolerate any loss.

I want to see which family will be lucky enough to marry such a powerful person in the future.

I'm afraid she might even rip the roof off our house!"

Madam Su beside her was not to be outdone and said:

"My family can't afford to marry such a jinx.

I originally thought that for Su Wan'er's sake, I would marry a concubine for my grandson, but who knew this girl would be so powerful."

Madam Bai looked at her and said:

"If you dare to say that again, I will tear your mouth apart. Who would want your grandson who can't even recite the Three Character Classic?

"He's stupid, but he insisted on forcing himself on our Wanwan. Who the hell is he? He's so ugly, how could our Wanwan like him?"

Madam Su was so angry that she was shaking. "Su Wan'er, don't forget that the Su family is your mother's family. If you offend your mother's family, who will support you in the future?"

Madam Bai smiled coldly and said:

"Support? What support has your Su family ever given me?

It's good enough that you didn't step on me. You know exactly what you did last time."

Madam Su shouted loudly:

"Okay, okay, now that you've grown stronger, you think you can really rely on Bai Qiaoniang!

Don't be silly, they are just using you. If your two sons die, your Bai family will be extinct.

And your daughter, I heard that she is having a very hard time now. You ignore your own daughter, but treat an adopted daughter as a treasure.

This is absolutely ridiculous. I want to see how filial she can be to you, and how filial her sons can be to you."

The noble ladies around were all watching the show: "This Su Wan'er is really stupid. If I were her, I would treat my own daughter well. What's the point of being so nice to my adopted daughter?"

"Isn't it? Bai Qiaoniang just wants to use her. When those children grow up, you'll see! She will definitely abandon them."

Madam Bai sneered:

"My Qiaoniang would never do that!

She didn't want to abandon us when we were in the most difficult times, and she saved us. She won't do that now."

"Heh... do you think that Bai Qiao Niang is a good person?

I heard that this woman threw away her previous man because she fell in love with General Huo. This kind of woman is simply shameless."

Mrs. Bai no longer bothered to pay attention to these people because they only wanted to believe what they wanted.

Belittling others is what these people are good at. The more others are belittled, the happier they are.

Qi Guangheng looked at the Dali Temple Minister and asked, "What's the conclusion?"

The Dali Temple official wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It is exactly as Princess An Ning said. The poison she was poisoned with was Mo Gu San, but the dosage was very small."
