She said: "Your Majesty, if I have evidence that Xuan Chen did not kill him, can you let him go?"
Emperor Hongyuan did not expect Yun Ruoyue to be so powerful. He said: "Okay, if you can find evidence to prove Xuan Chen's innocence and convince everyone, then I will definitely restore his innocence!"
Keeping Chu Xuanchen would be of great use, and of course he didn't want him to die.
Yun Ruoyue said happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, the incident happened in the palace that day, so the niece-in-law needs to be investigated in the palace. As the niece-in-law is inconvenient to investigate, can the emperor appoint a father-in-law to assist the niece-in-law?"
As she said this, she secretly glanced at Li Jinzhong and Eunuch Xu next to her.
Your Majesty must not assign Eunuch Xu. Eunuch Xu has a feud with Prince Li's Mansion, so why would he help her?
Li Jinzhong was very smart. He stood there with his eyes and nose in mind, without speaking, pretending to be unfamiliar with Yun Ruoyue.
Emperor Hongyuan glanced at him and Eunuch Xu, and said: "Eunuch Xu wants to take care of my daily life, let Li Jinzhong assist you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Ruoyue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it was Li Jinzhong.

After coming out of the imperial study, Yun Ruoyue and Li Jinzhong walked to the harem.
On the way, Li Jinzhong scanned the surroundings and found that there were no outsiders. He hurriedly said: "Princess, after many investigations, I have now identified three palace ladies. How about we arrest these three palace ladies and interrogate them one by one?"
, we should be able to find out the murderer!”
Yun Ruoyue shook her head calmly, "No, this is too troublesome! I have a way to make the real culprit reveal himself!"
Li Jinzhong was overjoyed, "What can we do?"
A gleam of shrewdness flashed in Yun Ruoyue's eyes, "Eunuch Li, I want you to go to the harem and spread a few words. Then we will send people to keep an eye on these three palace ladies and observe their behavior to know who is the murderer.
.”
"You can find out the murderer just by spreading a few words? Princess, what specific words are you going to spread?" Li Jinzhong asked.
"Come here." Yun Ruoyue said, approaching Li Jinzhong and whispering a few words in her ear.
After hearing this, Li Jinzhong nodded repeatedly, "The princess's move is really clever. Okay, I'll do it right away."
After Li Jinzhong left, Yun Ruoyue and Feng'er also hid in the Queen Mother's palace to wait for the result.
When Li Jinzhong walked to the harem, he saw a bunch of maids washing clothes. He glanced at the pile and saw the three maids.
Then, he cleared his throat and said sharply: "Stop, everyone, I have something to say."
The maids immediately stopped, and someone asked: "Eunuch Li, what happened?"
Li Jinzhong said coldly: "Huh, my father-in-law never thought that such a sinister and vicious person would appear in the area under my jurisdiction!"
"What happened to the sinister and vicious man, father-in-law?" someone asked in confusion.
There was a tall, thin, white-skinned palace maid in the middle, and her heart froze when she heard this.
Li Jinzhong glanced at everyone coldly, and finally glanced at the three palace maids, and said: "My lord, I don't speak secretly. Your Majesty has found out that the murderer of Concubine Lan was not King Li, but someone else."
There is such a person, and that person is among you!"
"No way? Is there a murderer among us?"
"My father-in-law, it is clear that we did not kill anyone!"
"But my father-in-law won't tell lies. He said the real murderer is among us, so he must be there. Oh my God, who is he?"
The maids said, "If you are suspicious, look at me, and I look at you. They look like they want to find the murderer."
