The palace maid was seriously injured, but fortunately she managed to hold on and was now in a coma.
She vaguely knew someone was coming, but she didn't have the strength to open her eyes to see.
Lord Ding stood in front of the palace maid and asked, "Now tell me, did the young prince use severe torture to force you to confess during the interrogation?"
The maid's eyelashes trembled, but when she wanted to open her eyes, she found that she didn't have the strength to do so.
Lord Ding frowned, and then looked at the eunuch: "Eunuch, look at the injuries on her body. There is no need to injure someone like this during a normal interrogation!"
"Even if you are a tough guy, you can't help but admit something you shouldn't admit!"
Although the eunuch thought so in his heart, he did not agree with him. Instead, he said helplessly: "The purpose of my family coming here is just to check the situation for the emperor and then report back truthfully. As for solving the case..."
"I am a eunuch, I really have no right to make a comment!"
So, don't try to drag him into questioning anything...
Lord Ding understood what the eunuch meant. He said helplessly, "This palace maid is in such a state that she cannot cooperate with the investigation. When you go back, why don't you tell the emperor the truth and re-examine the palace maid as soon as she wakes up?"
At present, the palace maid herself cannot cooperate with the investigation and the case has to be suspended.
Although Yang Xinwan could be interrogated, she was protected by Chi Muchu, and the emperor's condition had indeed improved due to Yang Xinwan's treatment. Lord Ding was also very clear that he could not interrogate Yang Xinwan or torture her, so he could only ask for more time.
By then, if there are new developments and new circumstances, Yang Xinwan can be convicted, right?
Chi Muyu walked in at this moment. He sneered and said, "Master Ding seems very dissatisfied with the result of my interrogation. Master Ding, why don't you interrogate Doctor Yang in front of this eunuch?"
Originally, Lord Ding had not thought of interrogating Yang Xinwan because he felt that Chi Muchu would definitely protect Yang Xinwan.
But I didn't expect Chi Muyu to take the initiative to propose to allow Yang Xinwan to be interrogated...
Although Lord Ding was surprised, he should not miss the opportunity to investigate Yang Xinwan...
"That's great!" Lord Ding did not refuse and agreed immediately.
His eyes fell on the eunuch, and it was obvious that he wanted the eunuch to be present so that he could testify for him and convey the latest developments to the emperor.
Soon, Yang Xinwan was brought in front of several people.
Yang Xinwan frowned. Even with Chi Muchu's intervention, the problem had not been resolved yet.
It seems that someone doesn't want this matter to be exposed quickly...
But if you think about it carefully, you will clearly understand who is the person in this palace who does not wish well for her.
Yang Xinwan did not salute, but asked: "Young Prince, I hope I have not caused you any trouble?"
Chi Muyu coughed and said, "Why not? You are the one I brought into the palace. If there is something wrong with you, how can I not suffer the consequences?"
"I, the little king, will not meddle in other people's business. I, the little king, have given you enough face!"
After finishing speaking, Chi Muyu introduced: "This is the eunuch beside the emperor, and this is Lord Ding who is in charge of your trial!"
"I have just interrogated the palace maid, and she admitted that she framed you, but... Lord Ding doesn't think so, so Lord Ding will re-examine the case now!"
"Just sit down and cooperate with the investigation. I believe you are innocent!"
Yang Xinwan did not perform any greetings when she came. Now after Chi Muyu introduced the eunuch and Lord Ding, he still asked her to sit down.
Chi Muyu could see that Yang Xinwan was reluctant to perform the ceremony.
In the eyes of Lord Ding and the eunuchs, Chi Muyu's behavior was just a way of saying that he would definitely protect Yang Xinwan.
With their status, they couldn't possibly think of touching Yang Xinwan in front of him and changing the trial results.
The eunuch didn't say anything and just stood there, waiting for Lord Ding to start the interrogation.
Lord Ding was ashamed. It seemed that because of Yang Xinwan, he had completely offended Chi Muchu.
But if Yang Xinwan was just a doctor with excellent medical skills, wouldn’t it be a bit too strange for Chi Muyu to protect her like this?
Is it possible that there is another relationship between the two?
For example, why would Yun Zhiyuan deal with a civilian doctor?
Even if it was because of Chi Muyu, I have never heard that Chi Muyu and Yun Zhiyuan had any grudges.
A civilian doctor was convicted. How could Yun Zhiyuan win over Chi Muyu?
With many doubts in his mind, Lord Ding coughed and said, "Young Prince, she is a civilian and the defendant in this case. Logically speaking, even if she doesn't kneel, she can't sit down..."
Chi Muyu looked at Lord Ding with disdain: "Then Lord Ding, have you ever thought that this doctor Yang's kindness in treating me is equivalent to giving me a new life?"
"And the emperor's health has improved because of her prescription. You can't be sure that she is guilty now."
"Are you so reckless as to treat the emperor's benefactor so harshly? Lord Ding, how did you get to this position when you are so unsophisticated?"
Chi Muyu's words sounded somewhat sarcastic, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Lord Ding was full of contempt.
Lord Ding felt his cheeks turn red and blue, and he said awkwardly: "My young prince has thought carefully, but it is difficult to achieve anything without rules..."
As he said this, Lord Ding sighed and said, "Forget it, we can't let the eunuch wait too long, let's start the trial now!"
As he spoke, Lord Ding asked the guards to bring two more chairs so that he could sit down with the eunuch.
Yang Xinwan just looked at them silently. They were targeting her, but Yang Xinwan was not worried about herself at all.
It's not just because she believes in Chi Muchu's ability, she also believes that Yun Xuanting is also paying attention to this matter.
Yun Xuanting will not let anything happen to her...
It’s just that Yun Xuanting is not convenient to show up right now!
Lord Ding looked towards Yang Xinwan. Initially, he had thought of letting Chi Muchu judge the case. He only needed to conclude that the case would be closed based on the result of Chi Muchu's trial.
But since someone asked him to overturn Chi Muyu's conclusion, he had no choice but to take it seriously.
Lord Ding was still somewhat surprised to see the person involved, Yang Xinwan.
Although Yang Xinwan's face is still covered with sores, her outstanding demeanor, sitting next to Chi Muchu, is not inferior to him at all.
Moreover, Yang Xinwan was too calm and didn't feel guilty or nervous at all.
It was as if she was witnessing something that had nothing to do with her...
"Ahem, Doctor Yang, I want to ask you, do you think that palace maid is pretty?"
Yang Xinwan raised her eyebrows slightly. What does Lord Ding want to do? Lead her to confess her guilt?
Yang Xinwan raised her lips slightly and replied indifferently: "To be honest, it's not bad..."
