"Today we are going to talk about this case. The person who poisoned was not Sizhu, so he was naturally released. As for the real murderer, the Ai family has found it. She is indeed a slave of Yong'an Palace."
As soon as Mu Ci said this, the whole place was in an uproar.
"I dare to ask, who is the murderer? Is it convenient to tell me?" Wu Meiren, who had just been upgraded from a talented person, could not hide her curiosity.
Mu Ci had a deep impression of Wu Meiren. Among the concubines in Dugu Liancheng, Wu Meiren was probably the only one who really had no intention of competing for favor.
"It's not convenient to say right now. The answer will be revealed in the evening." Mu Ci replied with a faint smile.
"Why do you have to wait until night?" Wu Meiren was even more curious now.
"Yes, why do you have to wait until night?" An Rong's curiosity was also aroused.
"You don't have to wait until night. Find a dark room and put all the slaves of Yong'an Palace in the dark room. The answer will be revealed." Mu Ci had already planned it and stood up and said: "Since you are so concerned about who the murderer is, just follow the Ai family.
Come."
Mu Ci was leading the way, and she explained as she walked: "The murderer poisoned the rim of the cup that day, and then secretly switched the cups, successfully blaming Sizhu. It was supposed to be foolproof, but the murderer missed the special nature of the poison."
"Your Majesty, please finish it all at once." Wu Meiren barely managed to get in front of Mu Ci because she was so anxious.
"As long as that poison touches your hands, it will leave traces in dark places." Mu Ci said slowly.
A palace official who was eavesdropping not far away heard this and quietly ran away, wanting to wash his hands and wash away the evidence.
Who would have known that someone had been waiting for the rabbit for a long time, and it was Ningxiang.
"As expected, your Majesty is very good at predicting things. I am sure that you will reveal your faults due to a guilty conscience. No, the one with a guilty conscience is the murderer." Ningxiang stepped forward and detained the person who came, who was none other than Zi Juan, a palace official from Yong'an Palace.
Zijuan's face changed slightly, and then she realized that it was a trap set by Mu Ci. The so-called special nature of the poison was just a cover. She was caught because of her guilty conscience.
Later, Ningxiang pulled Zijuan to the darkroom that had been prepared.
Zijuan was startled when she saw Yingliang's fingertips. Just last night, her fingers had not seen such an abnormality. How could it be like this?
She suddenly remembered that Sizhu had approached her two quarters of an hour ago and "accidentally" bumped into her. This should have been the "evidence" that Sizhu had wiped out at that time.
In other words, Mu Ci already knew that she was the murderer. The current scene was just for the onlookers to see, to convict her.
When the concubines who followed saw this scene, they all believed Mu Ci's story. The evidence of the crime was so obvious, Zi Juan was naturally the murderer.
The guards wanted to take Zijuan away.
Before leaving, she couldn't figure out what went wrong and why Mu Ci believed she was the murderer. She thought she had done it perfectly, and Mu Ci usually trusted her.
"Why are you so sure that this slave is the murderer?!" She rushed back to Mu Ci and asked.
She won't die in peace until the truth is revealed.
"You were present when Yao Cairen was poisoned last time, and you were also present this time when Zhao Meiren was poisoned. This time you did it even more obviously. You deliberately knocked over Zhao Meiren's tea cup, which caused a verbal dispute with Zhao Meiren. After that, Sizhu served tea.
, it is not difficult for you to secretly switch to a cup of poisonous tea. Of course, the Ai family has no evidence to prove that you did it, but the Ai family can create evidence to convict you." Mu Ci looked at Zijuan steadily:
"If you reveal the person behind this, Aijia can absolve your family from the blame."
