Chapter 19: Who will investigate the case
Wen Yunxi stood up: "You are just the prime minister's nephew. Even if you are Prime Minister Mo standing in front of us now, he dare not disrespect us."
Wang Li looked at Wen Yunxi in surprise. Wen Yunxi walked to Lianzhi and pulled Lianzhi up: "I am the princess of Xichu, Wen Yunxi, Princess of Dongxia, Lin Wanyang, and the future princess of Xichu. What you do today, I will tell my father truthfully that you are the nephew of the prime minister dares to show off your power at the feet of the emperor. If the prime minister can't even manage his own family, how can he assist his father in managing Xichu?"
Lian Zhi knew why Wen Yunxi said these words. Her murderous intent was too strong just now. Wen Yunxi was worried that she would really kill Wang Li. No matter what, Wang Li was always the prime minister's nephew and it was not worth offending the prime minister for him.
Only then did Wang Li realize who he had offended, he quickly knelt down: "It's all my fault, it has nothing to do with my uncle. Please spare me..."
Wen Yunxi ignored him and pulled Lianzhi away directly. While walking, she said to Lianzhi: "Wanyang, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry with that kind of person. When I go back and complain to my father, let alone him, even the prime minister will be scolded by his father."
"Thank you, I've calmed down now." Lian Zhi just finished speaking, and heard a scream: "Young Master is dead..."
The guests at Hexianju, before they could react to the fact that Lianzhi and Wen Yunxi were princesses, they saw Wang Li fall down and no longer breathe.
Lian Zhi and Wen Yunxi stopped and turned to look at Wang Li lying in the lobby.
Gu Shiqi, Gan Tang and Su Yue followed Lian Zhi and Wen Yunxi. Seeing this, they also looked at Hexianju. Wang Li fell to the ground, with his eyes wide open, and no longer angry...
When the Jingzhao Prefecture Chief Cheng Mingdong received the news, he felt a headache. What should I do about this matter in front of me? After all, Wang Li is the prime minister's nephew, and this matter is very difficult to deal with!
Cheng Mingdong walked to Lian Zhi and Wen Yunxi: "Two princesses, let's go there, otherwise it will be difficult to explain the matter of Prince Wang."
"What are you afraid of? If I didn't want to take responsibility, I would have left long ago." Lianzhi looked at Cheng Mingdong. She knew that from the moment Wang Li died, no matter whether she was in Hexianju or not, she would not be able to get involved in this matter.
She really wanted to kill Wang Li at that time, and was not afraid of killing Wang Li. But she knew very well that Wang Li was not her killing at all, and she would never recognize her!
All five people were taken to the government office, and Cheng Mingdong also sent someone to carry Wang Li's body away first.
Cheng Mingdong informed the palace and also informed the Prime Minister that it was the Prime Minister's Mansion who came first, but it was not the Prime Minister, but the Prime Minister's legitimate son Mo Ziyu.
Mo Ziyu saw Wang Li's body as soon as he entered the door: "How could my cousin die in Hexianju?"
Cheng Mingdong replied: "Mr. Mo, the coroner has experienced it. Prince Wang died under this poisonous needle." Cheng Mingdong asked someone to present the poisonous needle. Mo Ziyu asked: "I heard that my cousin and the two princesses had a conflict in Hexianju. Princess Wanyang even wanted to kill my cousin. Is this really a matter?"
Although Mo Ziyu was asking Cheng Mingdong, his eyes were looking at Lian Zhi. Lian Zhi looked at the silver needle. If she wanted to kill someone, a silver needle would be enough and there would be no need to be poisoned. It seems that the person who was fighting was not very good at martial arts and could not directly kill Wang Li with a silver needle.
"Yes, he was very disrespectful to me, so I took action to teach him a lesson."
"Wang Li is the nephew of his father, so please give me an explanation."
"How can I explain to you? People are not killed by me, so I can't give you this explanation."
"Everyone saw that Wang Li had a conflict with you!"
"Just seeing me having a conflict with him, how can I prove that he was killed by me?"
At a stalemate between the two sides, a notice was heard: "The emperor is here, the prince is here, and the fifth prince is here."
Wen Xize, Wen Zhiyuan and Wen Zhilan walked in from outside. Cheng Mingdong quickly left the seat to Wen Xize, while Wen Zhiyuan and Wen Zhilan sat down on the chair next to him.
Wen Xize didn't want to come at first, but this matter not only involved Lian Zhi, but also involved his daughter Wen Yunxi, so he came this time.
Wen Xize looked at Wang Li who had been dead for a long time and frowned: "I have heard of it on the way here. Princess Wanyang, everyone said that you killed Wang Li. Do you have anything to say?"
Before Lianzhi could speak, Wen Yunxi spoke first: "Father, it's really not the Wang Li we killed. It was Wang Li who spoke rudely to us before I got angry. Princess Wan Yang had a conflict with Wang Li in order to protect her son. When Wang Li died, we had already left the gate of Hexianju."
"I want to hear Princess Wanyang say." Wen Xize's voice was a bit fierce, and Wen Yunxi retreated reluctantly.
Wen Zhiyuan was a little worried. One Wang Li was not afraid, but people were afraid of it. Everyone knew that Wang Li's death was related to the two princesses. In order to block the public's mouths, Wen Xize had to give an explanation to the people.
Lian Zhi slowly told the situation at that time, and finally added: "If I really wanted to kill Wang Li, I would have taken action at that time, and there was no need to cover up."
"Princess Wanyang doesn't take Xi Chu seriously. Kill whoever you want. I haven't thought that Princess Wanyang has martial arts skills!" A dark color flashed in Wen Xize's eyes. Lian Zhi's martial arts skills were beyond his expectations, but a princess had nothing to do with some self-defense.
Wen Xize looked at the poisoned silver needle, and he didn't believe that Lian Zhi did it, but he couldn't let Lian Zhi go so easily.
"I just learned some tricks and entered the hall of elegance. And I would not ignore Xi Chu. At that time, everyone heard the words of the Sixth Princess. We were going to return to the palace to report the situation to you. I didn't take Wang Li seriously, but since I am in Xi Chu, I must comply with the regulations of Xi Chu and will never kill people easily."
Lian Zhi's words were telling Wen Xize that she was obedient to Wen Xize. Although she couldn't stand Wang Li, she would not go beyond Wen Xize to kill Wang Li. No matter what Lian Zhi thought in his heart, at least she gave Wen Xize enough face on the surface.
Mo Ziyu said: "Your Majesty, Princess Wanyang had a conflict with Wang Li in Hexianju. Everyone saw it with their own eyes. As soon as she stepped out of Hexianju, Wang Li died after her feet were on her back. No matter how I look at it, I think Princess Wanyang is the most suspicious."
Wen Xize looked at Lian Zhi and said, "What should I do? Mo Ziyu said that you killed Wang Li, but there was insufficient evidence; if you said you didn't kill Wang Li, there was insufficient evidence."
Lian Zhi looked at Wen Xize. Wen Xize did not intend to let her go easily: "Your Majesty, I think there are too many doubts about this matter and need to be thoroughly investigated. I am not afraid of the shadow slanting. If I don't kill Wang Li, I just don't kill Wang Li."
When Wen Zhiyuan heard Lian Zhi say this, she was really anxious. At this time, Lian Zhi and Wen Xize will not have any good results.
Sure enough, Wen Xize's tone was filled with a strong pressure: "Who would Princess Yang think that night would be best to leave this matter to?"
Cheng Mingdong broke out in cold sweat on his back, and this matter must not fall on him. Mo Ziyu was secretly happy. As long as the officials of Western Chu came to do this, then this matter must have been done by Lianzhi.
Wen Zhiyuan and Wen Zhilan looked at each other. Wen Zhilan knew in his heart that Wen Zhiyuan wanted to help Lianzhi. No matter what, Wen Zhiyuan wanted to protect Lianzhi. Wen Zhilan looked at his silly sister helplessly, how could he be involved in this kind of thing?
"Then leave it to me to check."
Just before Wen Zhiyuan spoke, he heard Lian Zhi’s answer. At that moment, his heart sank. Could Lian Zhi be crazy? How could he sink himself deeper and deeper at this time?
Even Wen Xize looked at Lianzhi in surprise: "You?"
Lianzhi pointed to Gu Shiqi standing on the other side: "There is this person, he will check with me."
