The mind-reading coroner drove the court crazy
Chapter 275 Attending the Palace Banquet
Liang Hongkai and Shao Kun exchanged a glance, pursed their lips, and said with an awkward smile: "Xiao Qin! Let's talk about something in the car."
Shao Kun tried to smooth things over, "Right, right, let's talk in the car."
Qin Miaoxi was half-heartedly dragged onto the carriage by them, but even after getting on the carriage, they were still hesitant to speak, which made Qin Miaoxi's eyelids twitch. How big a trick could this be?
"If you have anything to say, please speak directly!"
Liang Hongkai cleared his throat and said, "Look, you know more about the case than we do. Why don't you come with us to the palace to explain the situation to the emperor?"
Shao Kun nodded repeatedly, "Yes! We are not afraid of anything, but there are some things we don't understand. If His Majesty asks, we are afraid it will be difficult to explain."
Qin Miaoxi's mouth twitched slightly. This sounded a bit self-incriminating! How could this not be fear? It was clearly extreme fear.
"That's it?"
"Ah."
"As for getting in the car?"
Liang Hongkai and the other man choked and muttered quietly, "It's not appropriate to say this outside! It will damage our heroic image."
Haha! She should have used a loud speaker to broadcast their cowardly behavior throughout Jingzhao.
"I won't go. The emperor has appointed two adults to investigate the case. If I go with them... it's not appropriate." After saying this, without giving the two men time to complain, he immediately jumped off the carriage and fled away quickly.
The two of them stared at her fleeing figure, stunned for a long time, "We didn't say anything!"
Shao Kun lowered his head in resignation, "Alright, let's go!"
Liang Hongkai nodded, "Well, you are young and eloquent, you can report the situation when the time comes."
After saying this, he coughed violently twice, pretending to be sick.
Shao Kun: “…”
He said that the people in the Dali Temple were cunning and none of them were good people.
Qin Miaoxi returned to the inn. The guards seemed to have known that she would come back. They were not surprised at all when they saw her. Instead, they took her directly to the backyard. Chi Feiwan had already made tea and was waiting for her.
Seeing that Qin Miaoxi had really come, she stood up excitedly and couldn't help but greet her, "Nan..."
"Princess, please respect yourself."
Chi Feiwan's eyes were red, "But you are mine..."
"Your identity already has a grudge against the Poison King. How can you guarantee that the Poison King is not deceiving you?"
Qin Miaoxi's casual words instantly made Chi Feiwan nervous. He said with some disbelief and caution: "I...what is my identity?"
Qin Miaoxi stared at her intently, "You are the Poison Lord."
Chi Feiwan gasped, a look of panic flashing across his face. After a while, he calmed down and asked, "How did you know?"
After a pause, she suddenly realized something and said to herself, "Did I poison Pan Di just now?"
Qin Miaoxi remained silent. Chi Feiwan immediately gave a wry smile and nodded in agreement without denying, "Yes, you're right. I'm the Poison Lord who has a conflict with the Poison King."
The air around them suddenly became quiet. Chi Feiwan stretched out his hand towards her, but retracted it halfway, and fell into the chair to pour tea for the two empty cups.
"I found an experienced doctor to examine Pan Di. He added some drugs to her medication that cause mood swings and affect her heart. When she is interrogated, she will be controlled by the drugs and tell the truth."
She drank the whole bottle in front of her and said with a lonely look: "I don't regret what I did. I only regret doing this in front of you and letting you see my unbearable side."
Qin Miaoxi didn't want to hear all this. More than a decade ago, the Poison Lord was much more famous than the Poison King. This was because she acted eccentrically. Anyone who annoyed her would be killed. Moreover, she was ruthless in using poison. Once she attacked, the poison would kill instantly upon contact with blood.
He got straight to the point and said, "I'm not here to listen to your explanation. You sent guards to capture Xiao Yan. Did they catch him?"
Chi Feiwan shook his head regretfully, "No, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. He is very cunning."
"What is your relationship with him?"
"He is my fellow senior brother."
Qin Miaoxi showed an expression that said, "Since you are from the same sect, you should know the poison in his hand, right?"
Chi Feiwan shook his head and said, "We haven't had any contact for over ten years. I have no idea what new poison he has developed."
Qin Miaoxi was speechless, "Do you two have a grudge against each other?"
Xiao Yan stole her child more than ten years ago. If the two of them did not have some irreconcilable grudge, the fellow disciples would not have done such a thing.
Moreover, it has been rumored in the martial arts world that the Poison King and the Poison Lord are mortal enemies. Although no one knows the reason, since both of them use poison, many people speculate that it is due to conflicts within the same clan.
"Since you are his junior sister, you should understand his behavior, right?"
Chi Feiwan was silent for a moment and then nodded. She and Xiao Yan grew up together. It could be said that no one knew Xiao Yan better than her. If that incident had not happened later, they would not have reached the point where they are now.
"Princess, I have an unwelcome request."
Chi Feiwan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded without hesitation: "You say it, as long as it is what you say, I will definitely help you complete it."
There was a strange look in Qin Miaoxi's eyes, and her heart was beating inexplicably.
"Well, I need..."
She whispered in Chi Feiwan's ear, and Chi Feiwan nodded repeatedly. Finally, he promised solemnly: "Don't worry, I won't let him find out."
The case of poisoning the Princess Regent of Yanhuang Kingdom ended perfectly. Although the murderer died, the princess was safe and sound. The emperor had a rare good sleep that night after learning the news. Even Liang Hongkai and the others were rewarded with a lot of things for their contribution in catching the murderer.
As for who the murderer is, it doesn’t matter, as long as the princess doesn’t pursue it.
In order to avoid any further incidents, the welcoming banquet will be held three days in advance, which is tonight.
Since Lu Shiya and Ye Lingrong learned that Qin Miaoxi would also attend the palace banquet, they drove their carriages to wait outside the Marquis Xuanping's mansion early.
The moment they saw Qin Miaoxi, they both extended an invitation.
"Sister Qin, take my carriage."
"Xiao Xixi, take my carriage."
After saying this, the two of them stared at each other unwillingly, secretly criticizing in their hearts: This person really always wants to go against me.
Qin Miaoxi looked at the two of them, and suddenly she was overwhelmed. Seeing Zi Yan driving in from a distance, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "I'm entering the palace on behalf of the Marquis' Mansion this time, so I can't ride in the same carriage with you!"
"Then I'll be in the front!"
"Then I'll be in the front!"
The two of them spoke in unison again, which made Qin Miaoxi laugh. "You two really have such good tacit understanding!"
Crackling electric currents converged in the air. Finally, under Qin Miaoxi's persuasion, they finally stopped worrying about the issues ahead and behind, and the three carriages arrived at the palace gate one after another.
The palace was brightly lit at night. Three people walked side by side in the palace. In front and behind were ladies and young ladies who attended the palace banquet. Those who had a good relationship walked together.
Lu Shiya and Ye Lingrong sandwiched Qin Miaoxi in the middle, introducing the identities of the visitors to her from time to time.
Soon they were led to the table by palace maids. Due to their different status, the three of them sat in different seats. Lu Shiya, as a princess with military power, sat directly with Qin Miaoxi, the marquis' wife, which made Ye Lingrong grit her teeth.
Ye Junyan, the older brother sitting at the same table, looked at his sister suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"
Ye Lingrong glared at him fiercely, "You are the one who is crazy, your whole family is crazy too."
Ye Junyan: “…”
Doesn't my whole family include you? My younger sister is really not very smart. She has such a beautiful face. It seems that I can't have too high requirements when choosing a brother-in-law in the future, otherwise my younger sister will be alone for the rest of her life.
