At this moment, An Rong was still convinced that Mu Ci could only gain the upper hand verbally and could not do anything to her.
She is no longer the An Rong who was beaten by Mu Ci and was unable to fight back. When she attacked the young prince, she dealt with all possible loopholes and evidence, including the chess piece Xiumin, who was also killed by her.
.
The dead will never betray her!
Mu Ci glanced at An Rong coldly and said loudly: "Bring the people up!"
An Rong's heart trembled, she couldn't believe that Mu Ci had another plan.
Not long after, someone was escorted in. It was a nun on duty at Jingyang Palace, named Tan.
Aunt Tan trembled slightly and knelt down on the ground.
"Say it!" Mu Ci ordered quietly.
Nanny Tan subconsciously looked at An Rong, but Mu Ci's face darkened, "Look what Concubine An did? Are you afraid that she will take revenge on you later? In this case of the poisoning of the little prince, the murderer committed a serious crime of annihilating the nine tribes. No one is involved.
Among them, killing without mercy is an imperial edict issued by the emperor himself!"
When Grandma Tan heard this, she didn't dare to hesitate any more and had to confess honestly: "As for Concubine Hui Chen, Xiumin is the concubine's spy in Yanfu Palace."
As soon as Grandma Tan said this, the whole place was in an uproar.
An Rong tried hard to maintain her original expression, glared at Nanny Tan and said: "You are so bold and cunning, how dare you frame me? Do you know that framing me is a capital crime?!"
As soon as Nanny Tan heard this, she immediately crawled to An Rong and said, "The Imperial Concubine will recruit her. Not only the servants will know about it, but also Platycodon grandiflorum, and other personal servants who serve the Imperial Concubine will know -"
Before Nanny Tan could finish her words, she was kicked away by An Rong.
Mu Ciyang showed Xiumin's copybook: "Mother Tan testified that Concubine An was Xiumin's mistress. Xiumin's copybook appeared in Jingyang Palace again. Concubine An, how should you explain it?!"
She wanted to see how An Rong would defend herself this time.
An Rong was completely panicked now: "I don't need to explain, I don't know Xiumin..."
"You just said you didn't know Xiumin, so why are Xiumin's copybooks in your hand?" Mu Ci sneered, interrupting An Rong's sophistry.
An Rong was speechless for a moment.
What she just said was obviously contradictory. It was because she was pushed into a panic by Mu Ci that she got confused.
But it is absolutely impossible to make her confess!
"You can't tell, right? It can only mean that you are the real culprit who murdered Yu'er. You not only want to harm Yu'er, but also Wu Zhaoyi. Concubine An, the matter has come to this, so you can do it. Maybe I can do it
I’ll leave you a note of the whole body——”
An Rong said angrily: "Don't think you can confuse right and wrong with just a few words. This harem is not your back garden, and I will never be framed by you!"
Seeing this, Mu Ci opened her lips softly: "I guess I won't shed tears until I see the coffin. Come, take Concubine An and give me a good interrogation. Sisters, just watch here carefully. What will happen if you murder the emperor's heir?
End!"
When Ningxiang heard that An Rong was going to be interrogated, she became interested and volunteered to take the job.
She has always been ruthless and unambiguous when it comes to her attacks.
"If you don't want to suffer, please confess your guilt as soon as possible. I don't know how to show mercy to you." As soon as she finished speaking, she started to take action.
An Rong pretended to be calm and looked at Mu Ci: "Concubine Chen, don't think that you can do whatever you want with the Emperor's indulgence. This is not your harem alone. I am a noble concubine...ah..."
Before she finished speaking, Ningxiang's needle pricked into her finger.
With their fingers connected to their hearts, An Rong's eyes went dark with pain when the needle went in. But Ningxiang just took her time and deliberately inserted the needles into An Rong's fingers one by one.
"You can kill such a cute child like your Highness. Can you please tell me what kind of evil thoughts you had to harm your Highness at that time?" Ningxiang said, and inserted another needle.
She was a skilled person, so when she inserted the acupuncture, she deliberately inserted it at a slow speed, which often pushed An Rong to the edge of collapse.
After being tortured several times by Ningxiang, An Rong finally couldn't bear it anymore, tilted her head and lost consciousness.
Everyone around them was terrified as they watched Ningxiang being lynched.
They had known that Mu Ci was cruel and ruthless, but they never imagined that even Ningxiang could be so vicious and terrifying.
According to Ningxiang, this was just a trivial matter, and the subsequent moves were the ones that made people miserable.
An Rong was tortured to death. If she hadn't known that she would die if she confessed, she wouldn't have been able to persist for such a long time.
Not only An Rong was tortured, but the concubines who were watching were also frightened and tormented.
An Rong was tortured to death several times, but she still clenched her teeth. At the moment of the stalemate, Li Yu hurriedly entered the room and heard an order from the emperor, ordering Mu Ci to release An Rong.
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, which meant that the execution was over.
Mu Ci stood up and went to An Rong, looking down at An Rong from above: "Concubine An, please listen to me! One day, Japan will take away everything you care about. I don't want your life. There are too many deaths.
Simple things? The most painful thing is not being able to love life and not being able to die."
An Rong opened her mouth, but couldn't spit out a word, and was finally carried out of Yong'an Palace.
Mu Ci looked at the others present: "If anyone still wants to take advantage of Yu'er, today's Concubine An will be you in the future!"
The scene was silent until Mu Ci entered the inner room and the others got up and left.
After walking out of the heavy atmosphere of Yong'an Palace, the depression was gone, and Qi Luo breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly she was also a little confused. Mu Ci's life was so good, the emperor was protecting him, and Mu Ci himself was ruthless. How could she fight against Mu Ci?
An Rong's serial plan today was so clever that all the evidence was destroyed. She even thought of a way out, but Mu Ci still found out.
"Concubine Zhen, what is your opinion on today's matter?" Qi Luo looked at the silent Shen Manyun and asked.
Shen Manyun sighed softly: "I just feel that Sister An is quite pitiful."
Qi Luo couldn't help but sneer when he heard this.
When An Rong was being tortured just now, Shen Manyun didn't stand up to help and say a word. At this time, he pretended to sympathize with An Rong, which was too fake.
"I was so frightened just now that I didn't dare to say anything. Have you noticed that Mu Ci looks at you from time to time? Isn't it because he suspects you of murdering the little prince?" Shen Manyun asked again.
Qi Luo's face turned dark when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"I am terribly frightened. I need to go back to the Hidden Moon Palace to have some peace and quiet." After Shen Manyun finished speaking, he got on the chariot and quickly disappeared.
Qi Luo was about to get on the chariot when he turned around and found Concubine He Xian standing not far away.
Looking at Concubine He Xian's expression, there was nothing strange about her. She was actually calmer than her.
"Concubine Xian, haven't you understood yet? Mu Ci's family is the only one in the harem. When the little prince grows up, there will be nothing to worry about without the eldest prince..."
Qi Luo just spoke, and Concubine He Xian calmly opened her lips: "Get up in the sedan chair and go back to the palace."
