In fact, Chu Xin took over the position of commander of the Imperial Guard at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. Although he had established a foothold in the capital and demonstrated his abilities among the princes, although he could not compare with the eldest prince and the fourth prince for the time being, he was far superior to him.
Another prince.
But it is impossible to pick out these two people so quickly.
If someone hadn't told him about this news and where the key evidence was hidden, it would have been impossible to handle the matter so quickly and quickly, and it would have been impossible to catch Zuo Qian and Qi Chichun off guard.
As long as the slightest bit of news leaks out and the two of them are on guard, it will be impossible for him to really catch them.
As for the person who provided him with information and reached cooperation with him, he still thinks about it as if he was dreaming. He was a person he never expected. He himself only had doubts about it, but he did not expect that the effect he achieved would be like this.
So amazing!
The emperor stared at him coldly and said in a voice as cold as ice: "Do you think that I won't know if you don't tell me? Do you think that as long as you don't admit it, you can get away with it? Chu Xinyuan, who did it?
Do you have the guts to plant a secret thorn next to Concubine De, let her poison Concubine De, and blame Chu Jingxian?"
Chu Xinyuan's eyes narrowed and he said: "Why did my father say this? How could my son do this?"
At this time, the emperor suddenly grabbed the memorial at hand, threw it towards Chu Xinyuan, and said angrily: "See for yourself!"
Chu Xinyuan picked up the memorial on the ground and opened it. After just one glance, his handsome face became serious.
He raised his head: "Father, where did this confession come from?"
The emperor's eyes were as cold as ice: "This is the confession of the eldest maid next to Concubine De!"
This is indeed a confession. Although the confession is intermittent and obviously not obtained at one time, it is very detailed and connected.
The eldest maid next to Concubine De was actually related to the housekeeper Liang Zhongxing, and she was a distant niece of his. The eldest maid confessed that she was a backstage planted by King Chu Xinyuan of Liang.
Chu Xinyuan's heart felt cold, and he said: "Father, I have been wronged, and I have never done anything!"
"It's written in black and white, and you still want to deny it in front of me?"
Chu Xinyuan's hands and feet were cold. Although the confession was detailed and seemed to be conclusive, upon closer inspection, there were actually loopholes. However, he knew very well that the emperor did not believe his son because of the incident of General Zhenguo, so
, a little doubt will lead to infinite disbelief.
If it were another prince, the emperor might still hesitate a bit, but if it were him, the emperor would definitely want to get rid of him to avoid future troubles, but he can't just accept it. He must save himself!
He said quickly: "Father, the confession says that the person who contacted her has a long face, a mole between his eyebrows, and is in his forties. There is no such person in Erchen's house, and Erchen's housekeeper Liang Zhongxing is also with Erchen.
He came all the way on the battlefield. When his parents were bullied by the clan, he broke away from the family very early. He may not even know this so-called distant niece. If the father doesn't believe it, let her confront Liang Zhongxing!"

The emperor snorted coldly, his gaze became more dangerous, and said: "You know that there is no proof, so you refuse to admit it, right?"
Chu Xinyuan's heart sank: "The palace maid is dead?"
The emperor said coldly: "What do you think?"
Chu Xinyuan said anxiously: "Father, the Emperor Mingjian, I have no grudges against Concubine Demu, and I have no old grudges with Lao Qi. What good will this do to the Erchen? I really have never done this, Father Mingjian."
Ah!"
"No old grudges with Lao Qi?" The emperor squinted his eyes and said coldly: "How many fights have you and Lao Qi had in the past two months?"
Chu Xinyuan frowned, how could his father know about this?
He said honestly: "We had two fights!"
"Why fight?"
"Because of some personal matters!"
The emperor sneered: "Is it because of your princess Mu Qingyu?"
Chu Xinyuan: "..."
The emperor's voice seemed to be filled with ice: "You ignored Mu. Lao Qi met her accidentally and felt pity for her. But after you ignored Mu, you discovered her kindness and changed your attitude towards her.
.You guys got into two fights over a woman and broke up on bad terms several times. Is this the case?"
Chu Xinyuan paused and then said: "Yes!"
"You hate Lao Qi for coveting your woman, you hate Lao Qi for interfering in your divorce letter, and you hold a grudge against him. So you take the opportunity to take revenge, right?"
Chu Xinyuan raised his head and said: "Father, my son, my son, and my seventh brother did have conflicts, and they did get involved. But this was because my son and my seventh brother had different opinions, and it had nothing to do with anyone else. It was not because of a woman.
When it comes to fighting, my father will give you a clear warning!"
The emperor sneered and said: "You are afraid that if you admit it, I will deal with Mu Qingyu, but you are all protecting her!"
"I don't dare! What I said is the truth."
"Is there anything else you don't dare to do?"
"Father, even if I have some disagreements with Lao Qi, they are all trivial matters. How can I deal with an innocent person like Concubine De? Besides, I am busy with official duties every day. How can I have time to do such insidious things?"
"You've made absolutely no bones about it! If it were just this confession, I would still believe your sophistry! But now all the evidence points to you, do you still want to argue cleverly in front of me?"
Under his deep anger, Chu Xinyuan felt sweat dripping from his forehead. He felt that he had fallen into a tight trap. Something more serious must have happened, but he didn't know it!
The emperor said coldly: "What is the name of the person beside you?"
Although Chu Xinyuan didn't know why he suddenly asked about his followers, he still said: "And there are four followers around me, Xiangdong, Xingnan, Yuexi, and Caobei! When I was on the battlefield, Xiangdong
He died as a guardian of his children, and now there are only three around him."
"So that person named Yue Xi is someone you trust?"
"Yes!"
"Yesterday, you sent Yue Xi to deliver food to Lao Qi?"
Chu Xinyuan said: "Yes! I don't know what happened. My father wants to imprison the Seventh Emperor's younger brother, but when we fight against each other, I am willing to do my best!"
"What you mean by doing your best is to ask Yue Xi to deliver poisonous food?"
Chu Xinyuan: "..."
Although this sentence was so sudden that he was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He suddenly raised his head and said, "Seventh brother has been poisoned?"
The emperor snorted coldly: "Your plot was almost accomplished, but Lao Qi was in a bad mood and had no appetite, so he gave the food to the jailers. All five jailers died!"
Chu Xinyuan: "..."
If he had said before that the eldest palace maid next to Concubine De was the one arranged by him and the poison was poisoned by him, he could still argue with it, but the food sent by Yue Xi turned out to be poisonous, which made this matter even more serious.
Did Yue Xi make his own decision, or did something go wrong?
