Chapter 219 behind the scenes
The man in black bit his tongue suddenly, and blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth.
It must have been a lot of pain at that moment, but the man in black just smiled and let the blood flow along the corners of his mouth. He really made up his mind to die before coming to this place.
Liu Qingyan fell to the ground all of a sudden.
Originally, she thought she had found a clue and followed the man in black to find Song Jingchen. Maybe she could find Song Jingchen. In her guess, even though Song Jingchen did not come to Wanlinyuan, this time the incident must have a great relationship with Song Jingchen. It is impossible that it has nothing to do with Song Jingchen, and Liu Qingyan doesn't believe it!
But the man in black bit his tongue and committed suicide, which means that this clue has been completely broken.
"He is ready." Lu Siguan pushed away the dead man in black, walked towards Liu Qingyan, stretched out a hand in front of her, and acted to help her up.
"We are all in his trap." Liu Qingyan murmured, holding Lu Siguan's hand and stood up.
Seeing that the man in black died, Nangong Hui, who was still angry, walked up and kicked the man in black viciously several times: "Crazy! Madman! Nothing is sarcastic, nonsense!"
Liu Qingyan shook her head. She said that others were crazy, so why didn't she herself?
Nangong Hui looked at Liu Qingyan: "Now do you believe me? I have told you many times that I am not the murderer! I didn't lie to you either! There are really some people who have really murdered Princess Ruocheng, and that person is not me!"
Liu Qingyan frowned and looked at her: "What's the use of that? The man is dead, and there is no evidence to prove that he killed Princess Ruocheng. The only thing that can be proved now is that he killed the guards present!"
"I also hurt me." Nangong Yi raised his hand with grinning.
Liu Qingyan turned her head to look at him, and said "Yes, she also hurt the young general."
So what about the others? What else is there? The person is dead and there is nothing left. What should she do next? How should she explain to the emperor?
"Go and call the emperor." Just when Liu Qingyan was frowning and hesitating back and forth, she didn't know what to do, Lu Si looked at Nangong Yi and spoke.
"Go and call the emperor? Why?" Nangong Yi asked in confusion.
Lu Siguan said: "This is the murderer, go and call the emperor over."
Nangong Yi hesitated a little: "But... there is no evidence, will the emperor believe it?"
Lu Siguan waved his hand and said firmly: "Just go and invite the emperor. If you believe it or not, if the evidence is not evidence, I have your own way."
"Okay then." Nangong Yi sighed, endured the pain, and got up and left.
Nangong Hui sniffed on the side: "What evidence do you have? The power of King Qi has just been restored. If you do something wrong, this power will still be taken back by the emperor."
Lu Siguan was cold and reunited: "Miss Nangong, you don't need to remind me of this, I am very clear about it."
Nangong Hui snorted, turned around and refused to look at the two of them again. Liu Qingyan looked at Lu Siguan and asked him softly: "Prince, can you really explain this matter clearly? If you can't do it, then let me do it."
"You're here?" Lu Siguan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
"Well! I'll do it," Liu Qingyan nodded vigorously, with a serious face, "If I say something wrong, even if the emperor is unhappy, then at most there will be no position as the prefect of the capital, but you are different... I can still be the princess of Qi if I don't become the prefect of the capital, but if you are not the prefect of Qi, I don't know... I don't know what to do."
Lu Siguan smiled, reached out and rubbed her head: "Silly, what stupid things are you saying?"
Liu Qingyan looked at him: "Prince, I'm not kidding, I'm serious." She really didn't want Lu Siguan to lose his position because of this incident.
If it was something else, it would be easy to say, but this matter was related to the life and death of the emperor's favorite daughter. This princess originally wanted to marry the princess from the neighboring country to marry...
This matter is very important, and it is easy for the emperor to remove his power. Liu Qingyan doesn't want Lu Siguan to take such risks.
But Lu Siguan just smiled and looked at her: "If I can't be the prince, then I will be the slutty face of the prefect of the capital, and it depends on you all, how about it?"
Liu Qingyan was amused by him: "Why do you think so..."
Seeing that she finally smiled, Lu Siguan continued to joke: "After all, I always wondered, if I didn't work hard, would there be a rich woman to support me? It's actually great to be a novice."
After pausing for a moment, he stared at Liu Qingyan tightly and said, "And if you follow you, it's the best."
"Can you not be stingy? I'm still here!" Nangong Hui next to him finally couldn't bear it anymore.
Liu Qingyan and Lu Siguan held hands together, and their fingers were intertwined, without saying a word. The emperor in the dragon robe over there was already getting closer and closer under the leadership of Nangong Yi.
Liu Qingyan was very nervous and couldn't help but hold Lu Siguan's hand tightly.
Lu Si looked at her, stretched out his other hand, patted her lightly on the back of her hand, signaling her not to be nervous or worried. But Liu Qingyan couldn't do it.
The emperor stood in front of the two of them, Lu Siguan let go of Liu Qingyan's hand, and the two saluted the emperor together. The emperor looked around again and frowned: "What's going on with these dead people?"
Lu Siguan said: "When you come back to the emperor, the three men in black on the ground broke into Wanlin Garden for some reason, and they killed the guards."
"I have arranged so many people to guard Wanlinyuan. Where did these assassins break in?" The emperor was furious.
"Prince, please calm down. There must be something wrong with the arrangements of my son minister." The prince next to him quickly apologized and stood up. This time, he was responsible for the safety of Wanlinyuan.
Seeing the prince, Nangong Hui couldn't help but take a step forward and stared at him blankly. But the prince probably didn't notice her. This made Nangong Hui lower his eyes in a little disappointed way, but because her current identity was not suitable, she couldn't say anything and could call him.
The emperor glanced at the prince and seemed not very satisfied with him: "Then next time, you won't need to do these things. Since you can't do it well, don't do it."
The prince's heart skipped a beat, but on the surface he still had a respectful expression: "Yes, the emperor."
The emperor looked at Lu Siguan again: "You continue to talk about these men in black."
"Yes, the emperor," Lu Siguan responded and said, "These three men in black are not only assassins, but also the one who poisoned Princess Ruocheng."
"What did you say? They are the poisoned people?" The emperor looked at him in surprise, unable to believe it.
"When the emperor said, this is what it is. If you don't believe it, you can see what is hidden in the man in black." Lu Siguan said, pointing to the man in black who bit his tongue and committed suicide.
The emperor glanced at a guard beside him, and the guard said "yes" and took the order.
He walked up and changed the body of the man in black, which was originally lying on the ground, and asked him to lie upwards. Then, he reached into the neckline of the man in black, searched back and forth for a while. The guard finally took out a bottle and another letter.
"Take the things over and show me!" The emperor was immediately excited.
"Your Majesty, these things are not safe, so let me come." The prince hurried forward and took the bottle and envelope in front of the emperor.
"Okay," the emperor nodded, "Look, what is in this envelope, and what is in this bottle?"
The prince responded "Yes" and first opened the bottle. The bottle was half a bottle of poison that had not been used yet. Lu Siguan said on the side: "Your Majesty, if you are not wrong, this is something that poisoned Princess Ruocheng."
The emperor looked at him: "How can you be sure that this is it?"
Lu Siguan said: "If the emperor is skeptical, if the emperor is skeptical, you can ask the imperial physician to come and see if this is the one. The imperial physician knows these things best."
The emperor frowned and turned around and called the imperial physician who had originally checked the body of Baili Ruocheng.
The imperial physician took the bottle and sniffed it carefully. He frowned and said to the emperor: "Master, this is the poison that killed Princess Ruocheng! There is nothing wrong with it!"
The emperor immediately opened his eyes wide and then looked at the prince: "You! Open the envelope and see what is inside!"
The prince nodded and said yes.
The envelope was originally open, and he quickly took out a piece of paper inside and unfolded it, revealing a very simple sentence written on it: "If it becomes useless, kill poison."
When the emperor saw it, he was stunned: "It's really this man in black, it's really him!"
The prince looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, don't be so sad. The important thing is to find out who the person who arranged the murder was, and who was the driving force behind the scenes."
"Yes, yes," the emperor nodded, "to find out who was going to kill Ruocheng, and to kill Ruocheng."
He looked at Liu Qingyan and Lu Siguan: "You two, leave this matter to you two!"
"It must be a shame that the emperor is looking for!" Lu Siguan bowed again, and saw Liu Qingyan looking at the letter from the corner of his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
"Princess Qi, what's wrong with you?" The emperor also noticed Liu Qingyan's difference and immediately turned over and asked her.
