Chapter 421: The Scheme of Self-torture

As soon as these words came out, the face of the Emperor of Nanqi was obviously not very good.

Even the imperial doctors who were just shouting turned pale.

An Yunxi's words made these people very embarrassed. When they thought about what they had done just now and if it really affected the condition of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, they even broke out in cold sweat on their foreheads.

Emperor Nanqi pulled the corner of his mouth very reluctantly, "Princess, you are right. There were many misunderstandings before. Please don't blame me."

These polite words made An Yunxi roll her eyes. She looked at Baili Yunhe with concern: "Third brother, don't move around. Be careful of the wound breaking."

Baili Yunhe felt warm in his heart, and there was a little more smile in his eyes. He coughed lightly and said, "Fortunately, you are here."

An Yunxi helped Baili Yunhe sit on the chair next to him.

Although the wound on his chest was treated with medicine, it was just a simple bandage and he couldn't move too much.

After taking the detoxification pill, Baili Yunhe's face was still a little pale. He squinted his eyes and looked at the assassin's body on the ground.

"Have you found out the identity of the assassin?"

A guard came over immediately to report: "Your Highness, this man has the mark of Thousand Killings Tower on his body!"

Baili Yunhe looked thoughtful: "Thousand Killings Tower again?"

Hearing the guard's report, the ministers below showed fear on their faces and talked about it: "How could the assassin from Thousand Killings Tower be so bold that he dared to target our Crown Prince, and he almost succeeded!"

Prime Minister Lin also reacted at this time. He immediately knelt down and crawled forward a few steps and came in front of Baili Yunhe: "Your Highness, please save my daughter. She must be in danger now!"

Everyone remembered that the bride was replaced by someone, so where did she go?

Seeing Prime Minister Lin crying, everyone couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in their hearts, and some people even rejoiced in his misfortune.

In the crowd below, the people from the Jun family all had an expression of indifference, sitting quietly in their chairs watching the excitement.

And Concubine Qing, who had been silent all the time, had a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

Baili Yunhe was lucky enough to not die, what a pity!

Baili Yunhe slowed down his breath, looked at Prime Minister Lin and said in a gentle voice: "Prime Minister Lin, this is not the fault of you and your daughter. Come on, search for Miss Lin's whereabouts immediately, and find her alive or dead!"

"Yes, sir!"

The guards with swords immediately turned around and retreated, following the order to look for the eldest lady of the Lin family.

The atmosphere was a little calmer. Although there were some accidents at the wedding banquet, the result was still good.

At least His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not really in danger of his life.

However, at this moment, someone suddenly broke the tranquility of the scene.

A little maid standing next to Concubine Qing said in surprise: "Isn't that the Queen's hairpin?"

The maid's voice was very loud, and everyone present heard it clearly. Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on the maid.

The maid knelt on the ground and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, I saw the hairpin that the assassin used to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just now. The Queen had worn it before, and she had several pieces of jewelry that matched the hairpin in her hand!" Concubine

Qing's face changed drastically.

She had been sitting here honestly watching the excitement, but she was suddenly caught in the act.

Madam Xu showed a look of shock on her face, and immediately stood up and saluted to the Emperor of Nanqi: "This palace maid is just talking nonsense. The murder weapon has nothing to do with me. Please Your Majesty, please look carefully!"

The Emperor of Nanqi was also shocked by this sudden change.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Concubine Qing, and then waved his hands.

"Just bring that hairpin over, let me take a look."

"Yes!"

The little eunuch walked over and carefully handed the hairpin stained with the blood of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the emperor.

The Emperor of Nanqi looked at the hairpin for a few times and seemed to find it familiar.

The hairpin is simple and smooth, with a few orchids dotted on the end. The silver hairpin is gleaming, and the tip is extremely sharp. He just raised his hand to touch it, and a drop of blood appeared on his fingertips.

A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he turned to look at Concubine Qing.

"I also remember that Concubine Qing did have a set of orchid jewelry in your hand."

Concubine Qing's face turned pale instantly: "That doesn't prove that this hairpin belongs to me!"

Emperor Nanqi said: "Come here, go to Concubine Qing's palace and find this set of orchid jewelry!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The emperor gave an order, and the other palace servants immediately ran to Concubine Qing's palace.

Concubine Qing stood there tense. The sudden change made her mind a little confused, and she couldn't figure out what happened.

She suddenly turned around and looked at the palace maid kneeling on the ground, who had just taken the initiative to expose the origin of the hairpin. She suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, as if she understood everything!

Anger suddenly appeared on her face, and Concubine Qing gritted her teeth and looked at the sickly and haggard Crown Prince Baili Yunhe who was sitting on a chair not far away to rest. The thoughts in her mind were like a raging sea.

It's him!

He deliberately designed all this!

Concubine Qing gritted her teeth for a moment, hating him in her heart.

But not long after, a palace maid came back and took out all the jewellery in Concubine Qing's palace, and specially found a set of orchid jewellery.

The pattern on it is exactly the same as the hairpin that the assassin used to commit the crime before!

It can be said that this hairpin was taken out from this set of jewellery.

Whether it is the earrings or the necklace, the metal material used is also very special, shining silver, but as hard as iron.

A layer of fine beads of sweat has appeared on Concubine Qing's forehead.

Thinking of the palace maid who took the initiative to expose her, what else could she not understand?

It's just a frame-up! "Your Majesty,

the things are here." Emperor

Nanqi scanned the things on the tray, and the emotions in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Concubine Qing, the evidence is here, do you have anything else to say?"

Concubine Qing knelt on the ground.

Her face was red from anger.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent!"

Emperor Nanqi said, "Every guilty person likes to say that he is innocent in front of me. Do you have a way to clear yourself of the charges?" Concubine Qing

narrowed her eyes, her eyes were extremely cold.

"All these jewellery of mine were hidden in a secret compartment, and I gave the key to this palace maid. If one or two were lost, I would not have known that the assassin's weapon came from me. How could it be such a coincidence? Someone must want to frame me!" Concubine

Qing raised her eyes and set her gaze on Baili Yunhe's face.

"Your Highness, this self-torture trick was really well executed. You were able to dodge the assassin's attack just now, which shows that you had anticipated it!"
