"I... I..." Dr. Chen was speechless and could only kowtow desperately to plead for mercy. "I am not sure. As long as you give me another chance, after the work is completed, I will be able to find out the truth and prove my innocence."

!”

Liu Zhongqing snorted and said disdainfully: "I think you are just trying to delay your dying breath. If you want to say that King Zhaoyang was poisoned, do you have any evidence now?"

"Old minister, there is no evidence." Doctor Chen replied with a grimace.

"You have no evidence?!" Liu Zhongqing glared at him, his voice suddenly rising, "Then why do you conclude that someone poisoned King Zhaoyang?!"

Doctor Chen was speechless. He held back a sentence for a long time: "This... minister... minister..."

Liu Zhongqing was furious and shouted: "I think you are making up nonsense just to escape the blame!"

This medicine sounds very familiar. Li Yunxing remembers the medicine Liu Zhongqing gave to Su Miaoxue to poison him, and it seems to be the same.

But judging from Liu Ruxu's demeanor, she seemed to have no idea about this matter.

Li Yunxing turned his eyes, and a sense of absurdity gradually emerged in his heart.

Maybe, he really thinks too much?

But everyone still needs to be given an explanation for the matter at hand. After all, it was King Zhaoyang who died. He was the adopted son of Emperor Wu, and he could also be regarded as half a prince.

As the prince of the supervisory state, he must give an explanation to everyone.

"Master Liu, why should you be angry?" Li Yunxing finished speaking with a soothing expression, and ordered the Imperial Guards on the side: "For what happened today, Imperial Physician Chen bears the brunt of the responsibility! He neglected his duties and disregarded the life of His Royal Highness Prince Zhaoyang. He should be killed with a stick! In addition, all the people should be killed with a stick!"

All the slaves who have served King Zhaoyang will be taken to the imperial prison for interrogation, and no one should be neglected."

Li Yunxing looked at Liu Zhongqing again, cupped his hands and said: "What happened tonight is still full of doubts. I think it is indeed necessary to investigate. What do you think, Mr. Liu?"

Liu Zhongqing nodded and said: "In my opinion, it really needs to be investigated clearly."

Doctor Chen's face was ashen, and he sat slumped on the ground. His lips were trembling, but he could not explain himself.

"The Empress, I suspect that this matter is related to the maid in Jiaofang Palace. Although I believe that the Empress and Prince Zhaoyang are in love with their mother and son, and will never do anything evil to harm their parents and children, there is always no way to take precautions before they happen.

Wrong."

Li Yunxing turned to look at the Queen and said proudly: "I believe that the Queen will understand my difficulties."

"Stop using these high-sounding excuses to excuse me!" Liu Ruxu interrupted Li Yunxing with a sharp shout, "I know that you don't want to see King Zhaoyang, but you still want to stay out of it at this time. It's simply wishful thinking!"

"If we don't find out the truth quickly, I'm afraid the government and the public will be shaken, and public resentment will boil! When the time comes, you, the crown prince, will be waiting to be poked in the back by the people of the world!"

Before Li Yunxing could speak, Liu Zhongqing next to him scolded his daughter.

"How can you, a queen, speak so arrogantly? Your Highness is the crown prince of the country, how can you let you come and go at your command? It is human nature for Your Highness to consider the country, the country, and the country, so how can you allow you to slander him casually?"

The word "slander" came out of his father's mouth, causing Liu Ruxu's expression to change suddenly, "Father! King Zhaoyang..."

Liu Ruxu didn't say anything. He didn't understand that King Zhaoyang was the successor Liu Zhongqing had carefully cultivated for many years. Shouldn't he be angry at his death?

Why does it seem like he is aggrieved for Li Yunxing?

Over there, Li Yunxing observed Liu Zhongqing's reaction, which was even more strange.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhongqing was not angry about Su Zhaoyang's death, but instead came to Li Yunxing's rescue.

Could it be that he and Liu Ruxu were both mistaken, and that Su Zhaoyang's death was not a conspiracy, but just a coincidence, or was it Liu Zhongqing's selfish motives?

However, no matter what, Liu Zhongqing spoke for him today and successfully aroused his suspicion.

"No need to say any more!" Li Yunxing suddenly shouted in a low voice.

At this time, he must stabilize his military morale.

"Master Zaifu and Mr. Lu of Tingwei Mansion are both here. I am thinking that the queen has just lost her adopted son and is emotionally broken, so I will not care about you when she said something rude! But I will never allow anyone to cover up the guilt in this matter. I

This matter will definitely be investigated and brought to light!”

Liu Ruxu was warned by Liu Zhongqing's eyes, closed her mouth angrily and retreated to her seat.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zhongqing softened his expression, held his hands in his hands and thanked him and said, "Thank you, Prince, for your magnanimity."

"Yeah." Li Yunxing nodded slightly, then pondered for a moment, and said: "But the poisoning is not a big or small matter. If King Zhaoyang is really poisoned to death, then I cannot condone the adulterer."

"The imperial censor in embroidered clothes obeys the order."

Jiang He took a few steps forward, knelt on one knee, put his hands into fists on his chest, and respectfully responded: "My subordinate is here."

After Li Yunxing pondered for a moment, he ordered: "According to the decree of this palace, the guards in embroidered clothes will thoroughly investigate the assassination of King Zhaoyang. We must find out the mastermind behind it."

Jiang He accepted the order: "Yes, the general will obey the order!"

"In the entire Imperial Physician Order, I must find out the 'poison' mentioned by Imperial Physician Chen. Tracing back to the source will always lead to the true culprit."

"Yes, I will obey the order." Jiang He promised.

Li Yunxing scanned the people present with sharp eyes, observing the expressions on their faces at this moment.

Liu Zhongqing was worthy of being an old fox for many years. When he heard that Li Yunxing wanted to thoroughly investigate the poisoning matter, he never changed his expression.

Li Yunxing then looked at Lu Chen and then ordered: "As for those eunuchs and maids, I will leave them to Mr. Lu to deal with. What do you think?"

"It all depends on the prince's orders." Liu Zhongqing was the first to express his position.

Liu Ruxu hesitated for a moment, but finally held back. She knew that the case of King Zhaoyang's corpse was very involved, and if it was revealed, the consequences would be unpredictable, so she couldn't afford to lose the big for the small.

"I accept the decree." Lu Chen took over Li Yunxing's decree.

Finally, the unsolved case was handed over to Lu Chen of Tingwei Mansion, and he hurriedly left the palace after respectfully accepting the promise.

As for how Su Zhaoyang arranged his posthumous affairs, he left it all to the queen.

Doesn't Liu Ruxu feel very sorry for his cheap son? Then let her find a way on her own, he is too lazy to care about this mess.

"The prince is kind, and I will kowtow to the prince on behalf of the dog." Liu Zhongqing bowed deeply to Li Yunxing and thanked him.

Li Yunxing gave him a hand and said, "Master Zaifu has spoken seriously. This is a matter within my palace."

Afterwards, Li Yunxing did not stay any longer and left Jiaofang Hall with his people.

Looking at Li Yunxing's retreating figure, Liu Zhongqing sighed and said, "Ruxu, come with me."

The two deliberately left the noisy crowd and entered a remote corner.

"Ru Xu, you almost ruined something big just now! You have always been prudent and prudent, why are you so reckless today?" Liu Zhongqing said in a serious tone.
