Seeing the sudden death of Meiren Zhao, Yu Jieyu lost control of her emotions and let out a shrill scream.
Mu Ci, who was immersed in her own thoughts, heard Yu Jieyu's scream, her expression slightly condensed. She looked at the motionless Zhao Meiren who fell to the ground, stood up and said, "What's wrong with Zhao Meiren?"
"Zhao, sister Zhao is dead, dead..." Yu Jieyu burst into tears, her fingers trembling slightly as she pointed at Beauty Zhao, who was so frightened that she lost her mind.
She had always been close to Zhao Meiren, and the two of them wanted to support each other and climb up the harem together. She didn't expect that Zhao Meiren was promoted to a beauty yesterday and died suddenly today.
Things are so unpredictable.
Dugu Liancheng's face darkened slightly, he reacted, got up and walked towards Zhao Meiren who suddenly died suddenly.
When Li Yu saw this, she felt Zhao Meiren's breath. Sure enough, she had no breath and she had died suddenly.
After that, Yong'an Palace was in chaos.
Mu Xue came to Zhao Meiren's side and wanted to check whether there were any signs of poisoning on Zhao Meiren's body. Mu Xue suddenly raised her voice: "Zhao Meiren died suddenly in Yong'an Palace. Everyone present is suspected. The Queen Mother should avoid suspicion.
.”
The implication is that Mu Ci is the biggest suspect and should not touch Zhao Meiren's body.
After hearing this, Mu Ci took a step back, feeling confused.
In the past few days, she had been brooding over the incident of being raped by Dugu Liancheng that day, and there was always a feeling of resentment in her heart. Just now, Zhao Meiren had a quarrel because Zi Juan was serving tea, and Zhao Meiren was quite dissatisfied with her because of this.
It happened that at this moment, Zhao Meiren died suddenly.
Zhao Meiren died right under her and Dugu Liancheng's noses, with Sizhu offering tea, so she naturally became the biggest suspect.
Even though she had no motive to kill Zhao Meiren.
"Sizhu must have poisoned the tea to kill Zhao Meiren!" Only then did Yun Xi realize what happened.
Mu Ci had always been at odds with her, and he knew that Zhao Meiren was hers. He must have wanted to see her become one of the four concubines and couldn't tolerate her, so he took advantage of her. This must be the case.
"Concubine De, watch your mouth!" Dugu Liancheng glanced at Yun Xi with a cold look.
Yun Xi was shocked by the emperor's majesty and did not dare to say a word.
But she still believed in her heart that it was Mu Ci who murdered Zhao Meiren.
She originally wanted to take it easy, and then deal with Mu Ci when she gets to the lower position in the future, so that she can get twice the result with half the effort. But she never thought that Mu Ci would not be able to tolerate her at all.
She couldn't sit still and wait for death. She had to find a way to get rid of Mu Ci. Today's death of Zhao Meiren can definitely convict Mu Ci.
No matter what, the person who wants to cut off one of Mu Ci's arms is Sizhu.
Sizhu is Mu Ci's confidant. If he can take the opportunity to convict Sizhu, it will definitely cause Mu Ci a lot of pain.
"No one is allowed to draw any conclusions before the case is fully investigated." Dugu Liancheng showed off his emperor's airs and issued an order.
Since then, Dali Temple has been responsible for investigating the case.
However, before the case was found out, Sizhu was the biggest suspect and was detained by the Ministry of Criminal Justice.
This case happened in full view of the public. The Queen Mother and Long Live Lord were both present. The challenge was to the imperial authority. Dugu Liancheng took this case very seriously.
Even if Mu Ci wanted to excuse Sizhu, he had no position because this time a life was involved.
Dugu Liancheng is not a foolish king, and it is impossible for him to let Sizhu go.
After Yong'an Palace returned to peace, Yingchun didn't care that she had not yet come out of her punishment period. She went to Mu Ci to plead for mercy: "Your Majesty, you must save Sizhu. Sizhu is unjust."
