"No! You vile woman! You must have bribed the Imperial Advisor! Otherwise, how could he have arrived at such a perfect time?"
The appearance of Ming Beiya was like the last straw that broke Shangguan Murou's back. Her emotions instantly went out of control and she broke down. She suddenly stood up from the ground and rushed towards Mo Shisheng.
The fierce look in his eyes seemed to want to tear Mo Shisheng's body apart!
Before anyone could see how Mo Shisheng made his move, Shangguan Murou's body flew out like a tattered kite and crashed to the ground.
A cloud of dust was raised.
Mo Shisheng exuded an icy aura. "Jiang Ge and Jiang Yao, hold Shangguan Murou down! Don't let her get in my way."
"Yes, sister."
Jiang Ge and Jiang Yao obeyed Mo Shisheng's orders without question. They immediately stepped forward and tied Shangguan Murou's hands behind her back, preventing her from moving.
Mo Shisheng arrogantly raised her chin, "Shangguan Murou, I'm giving you face by calling you 'aunt,' don't be so ungrateful!"
Before Shangguan Murou could retort, Mo Shisheng reached out and grabbed a pebble from a nearby flowerbed, forcefully throwing it into her mouth, instantly silencing her.
The noise subsided, but Mo Shisheng's mood did not improve. She walked to Shangguan Qi's body, grabbed a corner of the white cloth with one hand, and lifted it completely, revealing her entire body to everyone.
A stench assaulted the nostrils, and some people couldn't bear it any longer and covered their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs. But Mo Shisheng seemed oblivious to the stench, and forcefully tore open Shangguan Qi's trouser legs with both hands.
Sure enough, the body began to decompose!
There wasn't a single intact spot on his skin; it was covered in blisters and rotting flesh.
"Shangguan Qi did die yesterday, but the wound on her neck wasn't fatal. The fatal thing was the poison on the murder weapon! The poison is lethal upon contact with blood and can decompose a body within an hour. Shangguan Murou, this poison can't be found not only in Qi Kingdom, but throughout the entire Xuanyun Continent. How did you have the audacity to suggest that I killed Shangguan Qi?"
Mo Shisheng wanted to examine Shangguan Qi's body from the beginning, but Shangguan Murou kept causing trouble, so it had to be delayed.
When Shangguan Qi died in the dungeon, she smelled a strange odor, but at the time she was thinking about other things and did not think deeply about the cause of Shangguan Qi's death.
However, Shangguan Murou, that restless woman, wanted to throw all sorts of mud at herself, so she naturally couldn't continue to be a bystander.
Mo Shisheng stood up, her gaze icy. "Does this prove my innocence?"
She didn't specify who she was referring to, but those who are meant to understand will eventually understand.
"I believe Shangguan Murou could never have committed murder. You've wronged someone without investigating the matter thoroughly. How dare you!"
Qi Jingling exuded an imposing aura without being angry, showcasing the full extent of Shangrao's charisma.
"Now that the truth has come out, I'm going to rest. I have to go to the academy tomorrow."
After saying these words, Mo Shisheng turned and left. Jiang Ge and Jiang Yao immediately released Shangguan Murou and left with Mo Shisheng.
No one cared what would happen if Shangguan Qi died, including Qi Yujin. When he saw Shangguan Qi's ugly death today, his eyes no longer held the affection he once had, but only intense disgust.
This is the prince, born into a selfish and cold-blooded royal family.
