Chapter 223 Being Implicated



Lord Ding's eyes lit up slightly. The emperor was going to intervene and help Yun Zhiyuan.

Under Lord Ding's extremely expectant gaze, the emperor simply said, "You go over there."

The emperor did not say clearly what he was doing there, but he asked the eunuchs around him to go there, so it was definitely not to watch.

So the emperor did not issue any strong orders, but simply sent someone to keep an eye on it.

Although Lord Ding was extremely disappointed, he did not dare to say anything more. In the end, he took the eunuch with him to try the case.

Yun Zhiyuan asked him to come before the emperor to file a complaint, so it would be unreasonable for Chi Muyu to intervene.

No matter what Chi Muyu got out of the palace maid through torture, it could be considered as the result of severe torture.

Therefore, that result cannot convince the public, nor can it be used as the result of the trial to close the case.

When the two arrived, Chi Muyu had just received the confession letter. When he saw Lord Ding, Chi Muyu handed it over.

"I have finished the trial of this case and can close it now."

Lord Ding looked embarrassed and looked at the person next to him.

Only then did Chi Muyu notice the eunuch following Lord Ding, and this eunuch was someone close to the emperor!

The emperor sent someone to inquire?

Chi Muyu frowned and looked at the eunuch and asked, "It's such a small matter, eunuch, you come..."

The eunuch asked, "Young Prince, you just said the trial is over? I wonder what the result is?"

Chi Muyu frowned, it seemed that the eunuch really came for this case.

"Here are the results." As he spoke, Chi Muyu handed the confession letter to the eunuch.

Chi Muyu's gaze fell on Lord Ding. Although Chi Muyu did not say anything, the look in Chi Muyu's eyes made Lord Ding a little scared.

Because Lord Ding was already feeling guilty, he didn't dare to look Chi Muyu in the face when he stared at him.

The eunuch took the confession with a smile, but he did not read it. Instead, he handed it to Lord Ding: "I am a eunuch, and I don't have the ability to read. Lord Ding, please take a look!"

Lord Ding reached out to take the confession, trying his best to ignore Chi Muchu's scorching gaze.

When he finished reading, he reported to the eunuch: "Eunuch, the maid has confessed and signed, saying that she was the one who framed Doctor Yang."

"As for the person behind the scenes who directed the palace maid, she was just slandering people for money. As for what that person's status in the palace was, she didn't find out, nor did she investigate further. She just said that there was a huge reward!"

Therefore, even though the palace maid could not identify the person behind the scenes, she admitted that she was framing Yang Xinwan.

Lord Ding looked at Chi Muyu in surprise: "Young Prince, Doctor Yang has been seeing patients among the common people, right? Why would someone in the palace want to frame Doctor Yang?"

"Is there anyone in the palace who has a grudge against Doctor Yang? Isn't that strange?"

Although Lord Ding did not explicitly say that Chi Muyu's investigation results were very problematic, Chi Muyu should not have failed to understand.

The palace maid's testimony was not tenable, so it was most likely that she was tortured into confessing and there was no one else instigating her.

After all, the palace couldn't find out who had a grudge against Yang Xinwan, so there was suspicion of fabrication.

Chi Muyu narrowed his eyes slightly. Lord Ding cooperated with him very well at the beginning and allowed him to investigate and interrogate the palace maids.

Now, after coming here with my father-in-law, I have been questioning him.

Lord Ding shouldn't go against him for no reason!

So, there must be a reason for this...

Chi Muyu understood after a moment's thought. Someone was putting pressure on Lord Ding, and this person had even found a way to get the eunuchs around the emperor to come over.

So it is obvious who this person is.

Chi Muyu snorted softly: "That palace maid is still alive. If you have any doubts, why not try her again?"

"And your Excellency has no evidence to prove that the maid was tortured into confessing. Everything is just your guess. So why can your guess be correct? And why can my investigation not be correct?"

As he spoke, Chi Muyu looked at the eunuch and said to him with a smile: "Doctor Yang is a nobody, and the maid is also a nobody. The identity of the person behind this is still unclear."

"But he asked you to come here, it seems that the emperor attaches great importance to this matter..."

"How could such a small matter reach the emperor's ears? Could it be that someone did it on purpose? Eunuch, do you think that person might be the one behind this? Is he worried?"

The eunuch's mouth twitched. He followed Lord Ding here just to see if Chi Muyu had done anything wrong.

But unexpectedly, before he started to question Chi Muyu, Chi Muyu started to take the initiative and started to find fault with him.

"Ahem, we just arrived and have not understood the specific situation yet, but the emperor is indeed waiting for a result."

The eunuch looked at Lord Ding and said, "The young prince said that the maid is still alive, so Lord Ding, go and interrogate her."

Everything is based on speculation, no one can be convinced!

Lord Ding did not delay any longer and walked towards the room.

The eunuch was about to catch up, but Chi Muyu blocked his way. He waved the folding fan in his hand and spoke with interest: "Doctor Yang is only entering the palace for the first time, and someone in the palace hopes that something bad will happen to her? I'm afraid this is not aimed at me, the little prince?"

The eunuch's eyes flickered. Now that he thought about it carefully, wasn't this a possibility?

Lord Ding would not dare to go against Chi Muchu, nor would he care about the final outcome.

Lord Dante went to file a complaint before the Emperor...

So there is indeed someone behind this, and Lord Ding knows very well who that person is!

Before the eunuch spoke, Chi Muyu said again: "In addition... Eunuch, have you ever thought that Lord Ding would rather offend me, but he still wants to do this. Does it mean that the person who asked him to do the work is higher than me, and he thinks that offending me is not a problem?"

The eunuch's expression became complicated. He shook his whisk and said, "Young Prince, let's just look at the evidence first!"

After that, the eunuch took a step and walked into the room.

Chi Muyu narrowed his eyes and muttered, "This little prince has never offended the prince, but why is the prince targeting this little prince?"

Although he just murmured, Chi Muyu did not lower his voice, so his words were clearly heard by the eunuch.

The eunuch paused slightly as he was walking up the stairs. Chi Muyu must have been muttering this behind him on purpose...

Are you afraid that he isn't smart enough and doesn't guess Yun Zhiyuan?

After seeing the eunuch enter the room, Chi Muyu's mouth curled up.

He had never offended Yun Zhiyuan, but he was close to Yun Xuanting, so it was normal for Yun Zhiyuan to regard him as a thorn in his side, so Yang Xinwan was also implicated...

Afterwards, Chi Muyu also walked towards the room.
