At this time, Emperor Sheng An said in a cold voice: "Since the Marquis' wife is proven innocent, then we must thoroughly investigate the real culprit of the poisoning!"

Lin Yiwan quickly said, "Your Majesty, I previously asked Concubine Yun for a secret guard. He's an expert at making poisons. Why not have him identify the source of this poison?"

Emperor Sheng An urged without hesitation: "Then please invite him up!"

When Yun Fei saw Mu Yi appear in front of everyone with his eyes lowered, she was so shocked that she grabbed her wrist tightly.

Is he going to expose her in front of the emperor?

He is so brave!

Without hesitation, she quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mu Yi, you can also make poison? How come I don't know?"

Lin Yiwan quickly blocked her view: "Empress Yun, there are still many things you don't know. Now he is mine, so it's not your turn to make random accusations!"

Concubine Yun snorted coldly: "He's just a dog slave, I don't care. However, I heard that he has a sister. I wonder if the Marquis can reunite them?"

Lin Yiwan answered seriously: "Yes, very soon!"

Before Concubine Yun could figure out the meaning of her words, Mu Yi knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I am here to apologize to you!"

Emperor Sheng An's sharp eyes fell on him: "What crime have you committed?"

Mu Yi fell to the ground and said, "The reincarnation poison that Concubine Yun was infected with was made by me. She wanted to fake her own death and put the blame on the Marquis' wife!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

Especially the Saint Girl, she asked coldly: "Mu Yi, please tell me clearly, what is the reincarnation poison? What is going on?"

Mu Yi slowly replied, "The Reincarnation Poison, as the name suggests, is also called the Fake Death Poison. After taking it, her breath will stop, like a dead person, but her consciousness will still exist. After twelve hours, she will wake up on her own!"

The Saint glared at Concubine Yun in disbelief. "You forced Mu Yi to make this poison just so you could leave the Sheng Dynasty? Wueryun, you're so bold!"

Wu Eryun argued anxiously: "Aunt, don't listen to his nonsense. How could I be so careless about the overall situation? He is talking nonsense and deliberately provoking relations between the two countries. Hurry up and order someone to drag him away and beat him to death!"

Mu Yi quickly retorted: "I am not talking nonsense. The reason I was forced by her is because my sister is imprisoned by her!"

Wueryun couldn't bear to listen any longer, so she pulled out the silver hairpin from her hair and stabbed Mu Yi without hesitation.

Lin Yiwan quickly grabbed her wrist, raised an eyebrow, and asked sarcastically, "Since he's talking nonsense, why did Concubine Yun intend to kill him to silence him?"

Concubine Yun was trembling with anger. She glared at Lin Yiwan angrily, "Are you doing this on purpose? What grudge do I have against you? Why are you so relentless in framing and slandering me?"

She paused and then asked righteously, "What good does it do you gain by driving a wedge between the two countries? Or do you wish to see the people on the border suffer?"

Lin Yiwan sneered: "You're so sharp-tongued!"

She quickly looked at Emperor Sheng An and said, "Your Majesty, I suggest you take out Concubine Yun's personal maid Cui'er and interrogate her. She should know the truth best!"

Concubine Yun was so frightened that her face turned pale. She hurriedly tried to stop her, "Your Majesty, don't listen to her. She is deliberately trying to sow discord between the two countries. She has evil intentions!"

Before Emperor Sheng An could say anything, the Saint interrupted him with a sharp voice: "Shut up!"

Wueryun looked at her tremblingly: "Aunt, please believe me. How could I deliberately sabotage the marriage? I am willing to marry here!"

The Saint Lady closed her eyes tightly and remained silent for a moment before she slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, let me ask Cui'er? She didn't lie to me!"

Emperor Sheng An nodded: "Okay!"

Soon Cui'er, with a pale face, was brought before the saint. She lay on the ground nervously, her whole body shaking violently.

The Saint lowered her eyes and looked at her: "Cui'er, raise your head!"

Cui'er hesitated for a moment, then looked at the saint in a daze.

The Saint said coldly: "Tell me what the princess asked you to do. You don't have to worry about what she will do. After all, after this incident, you can't stay with her anymore!"

Cui'er bit her lips hard, her eyes full of struggle and fear.

The Saint Lady warned without hesitation: "Even if you don't tell me, I can find out. By then, I'm afraid you won't have any chance of survival. Your parents and siblings who are still in Li Country will also be implicated!"

This sentence immediately irritated Cui Er, and she quickly said, "Saint, calm down. The princess did capture Mu Yi's sister and use her as a threat, forcing him to make a fake death potion and escape from Sheng Dynasty!"

"She had a good idea originally. She wanted to put the blame on Lin Yiwan and gain some benefits for the Kingdom of Li. After all, she was a princess who died in the harem of the Emperor of Sheng Dynasty. She deserved compensation!"

When Emperor Sheng An heard this, his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

He sarcastically said, "Yun Fei really has a good plan!"

Concubine Yun argued vigorously: "Your Majesty, don't listen to this lowly servant's slander. She must have been bribed by Lin Yiwan, so she framed Yun'er!"

Cui Er said without hesitation: "I didn't. Mulan is imprisoned in a woodshed in Tingyu Pavilion. She can prove that I am not lying!"

Emperor Sheng An ordered gloomily: "Go and get Mulan!"

Soon, a disheveled girl was helped up. She was extremely dirty and her breath was very weak.

Lin Yiwan quickly took a pill and stuffed it into her mouth, and she barely opened her eyes.

She asked in a trembling voice, "Who are you?"

Mu Yi quickly rushed to her, shook her hand tightly and said, "Mulan, I am your brother!"

Mulan shook her head vigorously: "No, you are not my brother, you are a big elbow. I have been hungry for ten days. Everything looks like a big elbow to me. I want to eat it!"

Mu Yi glared at Wueryun with anger on his face: "I have already done everything you said, why do you still abuse her like this? How can you be so heartless?"

Wueryun turned her face away guiltily. Why would she care about other people's life or death? Just let them starve to death and be buried.

Lin Yiwan quickly ordered someone to bring some pastries, carefully broke them into pieces and fed them into Mulan's mouth.

She swallowed greedily, and after a moment, she squinted her eyes and said, "Oh my God, you finally opened your eyes and let me, Mulan, escape!"

She struggled to sit up and said, "Saint, the princess hid me in a cage and brought me here all the way. She wanted to control my brother and force him to make the elixir of immortality so that she could escape from the Sheng Dynasty!"

Now that the saint heard the truth, she was naturally furious.

She raised her hand and slapped Yun Fei's cheek fiercely: "Do you know your mistake?"

With so many witnesses before him, Wueryun had no way of denying it.

She said in panic, "Aunt, calm down. I just couldn't think straight for a moment. Please forgive me this time."
