As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes fell on Wang Fugui with a burning look, as if they wanted to see a hole through him.
Wang Fugui suddenly panicked and retorted with a sullen face.
"It's written next to you that it's a gift from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so the same is true for the other row."
Shen Yuerong nodded thoughtfully.
"You are right, then."
Hearing this, Wang Fugui breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he had guessed right.
Just as he was rejoicing, Shen Yuerong spoke again.
"But we still need to confirm whether there is Wushisan in it, right?"
Wang Fugui heard Shen Yuerong's words and sneered.
"Princess, please don't try to quibble. The evidence is irrefutable. There is indeed Xiaoyao Powder in it."
Shen Yuerong just raised her eyebrows and smiled, staring at him without saying a word, her deep eyes filled with bone-chilling coldness, which made Wang Fugui feel fear and terror on his spine.
Could it be that he had taken the wrong thing? But that was impossible, as he was doing what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had ordered.
Maybe it was just Shen Yuerong who was deceiving him.
So Wang Fugui stiffened his neck and shouted again.
"Princess, stop struggling. These evidences are enough to prove that you are the mastermind behind the Xiaoyao Powder incident. You murdered so many innocent girls and put the blame on Master Fu Hengjing."
"Someone bring the princess to the government office."
Several officers stepped forward to take Shen Yuerong away, but Chi Mu walked out calmly with his hands behind his back and protected him behind him.
"I'll see who dares to take action."
As soon as he said this, the guards in the palace surrounded the Dali Temple Minister. Wang Fugui's chest heaved up and down and he shouted loudly.
"Why, Your Highness, do you still want to rebel? This matter has been reported to the emperor, and the decision is left to the Dali Temple."
The Dali Temple Chief Justice sat on the side without saying a word, his eyes swept across Wang Fugui coldly, as if he wanted to beat him up.
This is the regent, and he dares to offend him. Is he tired of living?
Shen Yuerong walked to Chi Mu's side and spoke in a dignified and noble manner.
"I can go to the Dali Temple with you, but I have a condition. This wooden box can only be opened in the Dali Temple."
Wang Fugui was more than happy to accept Shen Yuerong's request.
He had already arranged for many people to watch at the door, and when the public trial came, the poisonous Xiaoyao Powder would appear in the box again.
Then Shen Yuerong would no longer have the possibility to refute, and she would be able to successfully complete the task assigned by the prince and receive a generous reward.
So a group of people came to the Dali Temple in a mighty manner, brought Fu Hengjing out again, and interrogated him in public.
But the situation of Shen Yuerong and Fu Hengjing was different. She was sitting there drinking tea and talking to Chi Mu from time to time.
He looked as if he was just a guest.
Shen Yuerong's skin was as white as jade, her hair was tied up in a bun, and her hair was adorned with coral beads. Her face was as rosy as a peach, and her lips were red and her teeth were white.
Just sitting there, she was hard to look away.
When Fu Hengjing saw such a beautiful Shen Yuerong, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes.
Why didn’t he realize that Shen Yuerong was so pretty before? If only I could...
Chi Mu noticed his gaze and smashed the teacup in his hand directly on Fu Hengjing's forehead with a cold and domineering expression.
"This prince already knows what Young Master Fu did, and he has deliberately sought out the victim."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Mu appeared with a dozen thin women.
The moment they saw Fu Hengjing, they wanted to pounce on him and tear him to pieces, their eyes were filled with terror.
Fu Hengjing finally got a little scared, but then he thought of something and a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face.
These people are just ants and can't move him at all. After all, he has the protection of the prince.
He is the future pride of the world. If I cooperate with him, maybe after the prince ascends the throne, I can even gain the credit of following the dragon.
"These women are from poor families and are greedy for money. They accompany others to drink and eat meat. So what? I also let them make money."
"This is something that we both agreed to. You have the ability to produce evidence to prove that I did it."
His tone was extremely arrogant, and his cold eyes swept over Shen Yuerong, making people feel extremely sick.
Shen Yuerong sat there, her expression extremely cold, and spoke slowly.
"Even if Young Master Fu wrongly accused the princess of instigating everything, you were the one who hurt a decent girl and used her as evidence to threaten her."
"I can't do anything else for you."
There was something meaningful in these words, but Fu Hengjing was not afraid. Instead, he looked up and laughed out loud.
"Well, arrest me. It would be best if you could use your status as a princess to make me die here."
Shen Yuerong glanced at Fu Hengjing, and didn't even want to say a word in disgust. She just lowered her eyes and drank tea to cover it up.
Chi Mu waved his hand, and Fang Mu kicked over, landing several punches on Fu Hengjing's ugly face.
Fu Hengjing was beaten severely and finally became more obedient, his voice was even a little unclear.
"You will know if you open the wooden box. There is Xiaoyao Powder inside. This matter is definitely related to Shen Yuerong."
He kept repeating this sentence and asked the Dali Temple Minister to open the wooden box and check.
So the moment he opened the wooden box and looked at it clearly, his brows slightly frowned and he suddenly sighed.
Unfortunately, Fu Hengjing hadn't noticed anything yet and thought it was solid evidence, so he reminded him in an excited tone.
"There is indeed Xiaoyao Powder in the wooden box. The evidence is irrefutable. If not, I will write my name backwards!!"
Shen Yuerong raised a casual smile at the corner of her mouth, “I don’t need you to write your name backwards, I want you to kneel down and apologize in public, do you dare to bet?”
At this moment, Fu Hengjing's face was full of pride, and he spoke nonchalantly.
"Let's bet. Who's afraid of who? Just reveal what's inside the wooden box."
The Dali Temple Chief Justice stood up slowly, sighed, and turned the wooden box in a direction where everyone could see it clearly.
"See for yourself."
There was no Wu Shi San in the wooden box at all, only a small broken porcelain vase.
The moment Fu Hengjing saw it clearly, he couldn't help but ask sharply.
"There's no Xiaoyao Powder in there, why are you sighing?!"
The Dali Temple official slammed the table and said, "The porcelain is broken, can't I just sigh?"
At this time, Shen Yuerong stood up and spoke with a smile.
"Young Master Fu, it's time to fulfill your promise."
Fu Hengjing originally wanted to cheat, but Chi Mu was playing with a sharp dagger, and he suddenly became scared.
He could only apologize to Shen Yuerong with a sullen face and gritted teeth.
"I'm sorry, Princess. I didn't recognize the real talent."
Shen Yuerong stood there quietly, uttering a word in a cold tone.
"You should apologize not to me, but to the dozen girls you hurt."
"Hurry up and apologize, maybe you can still survive."
Hearing Shen Yuerong's words, Fu Hengjing's expression changed again and again, and in the end he could only grit his teeth and apologize to the girls he bullied.
"I'm sorry, I was confused for a moment."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yuerong spoke again.
"Just admit it, sir. Do you think this case should be closed?"
