Chapter 48 Tell the Truth



After all, no matter what, as long as Qian Ruoyu is not convicted, she will always be the princess.

If Qian Ruoyu is not guilty, then she will only be confined to her house, so Butler Wang will not treat Qian Ruoyu harshly for this reason.

"My lady, please come this way."

After all, he had been punished by Qian Ruoyu once, so Butler Wang's tone was very polite at this time.

Qian Ruoyu knew that all this had nothing to do with Butler Wang or these servants. It was just that the man believed the rumors spread by others.

Afterwards, Qian Ruoyu followed directly behind Butler Wang. The two servants did not dare to grab Qian Ruoyu and let Qian Ruoyu go forward alone.

As soon as he walked out of the attic, Qian Ruoyu said to the three people around him.

"Do you believe I poisoned you?"

The two servants didn't dare to speak, but it was Butler Wang who spoke up.

"Well... Princess, although I don't have any real evidence, I believe you would not poison the prince!"

As soon as Butler Wang expressed his opinion, the two servants also spoke one after another.

"Yes, Madam, we don't believe it either."

"How could the queen be the one who poisoned me?"

After all, these two servants had little influence, so they knew to continue following what Butler Wang said.

Qian Ruoyu then spoke calmly.

"Well, at least some of you believe in me. I don't care about the rest. Even if he asks his personal guards to beat me up, I don't care. If I didn't poison me, it's not me!"

Qian Ruoyu spoke in a firm tone, and after hearing it, Butler Wang at the side felt even more trusting of her.

Although Qian Ruoyu had taught him a lesson, Butler Wang had been the butler of the palace for more than ten years. He naturally would not deliberately slander Qian Ruoyu out of personal hatred.

After returning to Yueya Pavilion, Butler Wang beside Qian Ruoyu immediately said.

"My Lady, since the King has also asked us to confine you, then we can only follow the King's request and have these two servants stand guard at the door. Is that ok with you?"

Butler Wang's tone was not a request, but a request to Qian Ruoyu.

Qian Ruoyu nodded slightly.

After all, this matter has nothing to do with these servants, so there is no need to make things difficult for them.

"Don't worry, it's okay to keep them here. I won't leave this courtyard anyway. But you should help me prepare some delicious food. Cuihua hasn't eaten yet."

"You can't let me take someone else's watermelon again, right?"

Hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, even a serious person like Butler Wang almost laughed out loud.

"Yes, yes, yes. Please rest assured, Your Majesty. In less than half an incense stick of time, I will have the servants bring the delicious food over so that Your Majesty can eat it with peace of mind."

"But... someone just poisoned the prince. Aren't you afraid at all?"

Qian Ruoyu smiled and shook her head.

She said calmly, "What do I have to be afraid of? If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. Besides, it's not me who was poisoned. I'm just a woman. It's not my turn."

Hearing Qian Ruoyu say this, Butler Wang nodded immediately, and in his heart he also praised Qian Ruoyu for her open-mindedness.

After all, if Qian Ruoyu really wasn't the one who poisoned, and if Qian Ruoyu could be so calm and open-minded, then it is obvious that Qian Ruoyu is also a good hostess.

After Butler Wang left two servants behind, he immediately walked away quickly.

Chu Mobai, who was in the attic, had several personal guards besides Li Zhiyi!

The person closest to Chu Mobai was Si Yin. He had a serious look on his face, but he was also worried about his brother's situation.

At this time, more than a dozen servants from the palace were brought in one after another.

Seeing that Si Yin's expression was a little strange, Chu Mobai spoke with concern.

"How is your brother Si Ze? I have invited a royal doctor from the palace to tell him what his condition is."

Si Yin nodded immediately and said with tears of gratitude.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness! My brother Si Ze's condition has stabilized now, but according to the imperial physician... it seems that my brother was really saved by the princess..."

"My brother was in critical condition at the time. It seems that Madam Wang Fei really bandaged him with special techniques. Otherwise, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been able to survive until the imperial physician arrived..."

When Chu Mobai heard these words suddenly, his expression changed immediately.

Si Yin thought Chu Mobai was angry, so she immediately lowered her head and said.

"Please forgive me, Your Highness! My brother Si Ze did delay things a bit, and we shouldn't have blamed the princess before. I should thank the princess for this matter. I was wrong to blame her!"

Chu Mobai felt a little uncomfortable.

If this was really what Si Yin said, then he had really wronged Qian Ruoyu, and this matter...

Chu Mobai didn't think any more and spoke calmly instead.

"Well, you can ask the imperial physician to see if this matter has anything to do with Qian Ruoyu. Also, interrogate these people first."

Si Yin nodded quickly.

Afterwards, all the people in the palace who were related to the matter were brought in one after another, nearly twenty-seven people in total.

Each of the twenty-seven people looked extremely panicked. They had heard when they came that the prince was poisoned after eating the pig's trotters that they helped cook, so now each of them had a grim face, fearing that this matter had something to do with them.

Si Yin spoke, and he said majestically.

"I'm sure everyone has heard about what happened today! Everyone should know how the prince treats everyone. In the entire capital, no matter which mansion, the prince treats everyone the best!"

"I didn't expect that someone among you would actually want to poison the prince! If this matter is not investigated thoroughly, all of you will be slaughtered! Those who poisoned the prince will have their entire clan killed!"

As soon as Si Yin finished speaking, everyone felt like they were struck by a bolt from the blue.

Not only were they all slaughtered, but also their entire clans were exterminated. How could these people not feel fear?

After seeing that the effect was achieved, Chu Mobai spoke in a calm tone.

"I know you have followed me for so long, you would not poison me casually. Now, remember what went wrong!"

Although Chu Mobai said this, he was thinking about something else in his heart.

That is, if no information can be obtained from these servants, then there is only one possibility, and that is Qian Ruoyu!

There is no other possibility besides this!

"The prince has already given you a chance. Now tell the truth one by one, starting with the chef!"

After Si Yin finished speaking, she looked at Chu Mobai again, and Chu Mobai nodded. Then three chefs from the palace quickly stood up.
