"Take the person away."
Ni Yueshuang's expression turned serious: "Ni Yueshan, you really don't take me seriously!"
Qingfeng lifted Mingyan up from the ground.
Mingyan sobbed softly, her body becoming a little weak. After she was freed, she immediately hid behind Ni Yueshan.
"I will hand him over, but only after the truth is revealed!" Ni Yueshan instructed Qingfeng, "Let's go!"
All the palace maids were knocked to the ground by Qingfeng and could not get up again. He took Ni Yueshan and Mingyan out and no one stopped them.
Ni Yueshuang stood up angrily and pointed in the direction Ni Yueshan left, "Ni Yueshan, you wait for me!"
Ni Yueshan seemed not to hear and left quickly.
Inside the palace, Jing Yuchen, Military Doctor He, and Ni Gaofei knelt on the ground.
The eunuch walked up to the emperor and briefly explained the matter, and the emperor gradually understood.
His expression was serious. "Second brother, are you being too protective of your wife? Even if she has a way to prove her innocence, if you don't let her show her face, then I won't have any chance to interrogate her."
"Father, whatever you want to ask me, just ask me. I know everything she knows!"
Jing Yuchen knelt on the ground with a sincere expression.
The emperor snorted, "The more you defend her, the more I want her to come."
Jing Yuchen was embarrassed: "Father, you are too naughty, aren't you?"
Emperor: “Hmm?”
Jing Yuchen's gaze fell on Doctor He and he quickly changed the subject: "Why don't you confess honestly in front of the Emperor?"
"Your Majesty, I intended to commit suicide, and the suicide note also reflects my true thoughts. I was indeed forced by Miss Ni to harm others!"
"Really? Then the prince is very curious. You are already prepared to die. Would you rather leave a suicide note to incriminate Yue Shan than to sue her before the Prime Minister?"
"Are you so sure that after you die, the suicide note will be seen by someone other than Yue Shan, instead of being destroyed by Yue Shan? The fact that you are so sure only means that you and the butler of the Prime Minister's Mansion have colluded to have him come here! You are putting on a show!"
From what Jing Yuchen and Doctor He said, it is obvious that there is still controversy and it is not certain who the real murderer is.
The emperor's expression darkened. "I do not wish to hear your arguments. Whether Doctor He was forced or willing, the poisoning is inseparable from him, is that correct?"
"Yes, Father!" Jing Yuchen immediately responded.
The emperor showed a satisfied expression. "That's easy. Regardless of the process, this military doctor He is the one who caused me to lose my heir. So, I will punish you now. Do you have any complaints?"
The emperor questioned him in a low voice with a sense of oppression.
Doctor He's expression changed, but he didn't beg for mercy. He simply replied honestly, "I dare not even utter a word of complaint. Your Majesty has punished me. I thank Your Majesty for your grace!"
He kowtowed heavily without making any attempt to defend himself.
The emperor looked at Jing Yuchen and said, "Ni Yueshan is just like this military doctor He. No matter why they attacked, they are the ones who harmed the heir of the dragon, isn't that right?"
Jing Yuchen was stunned. The emperor's method of handling the matter was really special?
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Gaofei, but he didn't react at all.
Jing Yuchen was somewhat helpless, "Father, how can someone who was framed innocently be punished for this? Isn't this too unfair?"
"This military doctor He has no grudge against Concubine Shuang, so why would he drag Yueshan into the murder of Concubine Shuang? If there is no other reason behind this, I find it unlikely!"
"Your Majesty, I suspect it was the Tian family. I ask Your Majesty to thoroughly interrogate this military doctor He to determine whether it was the Tian family who ordered him to do so. If so, Your Majesty, will the Tian family bear all the responsibility?"
Jing Yuchen's every word was for Ni Yueshan's benefit...
Ni Gaofei, who was standing by, remained silent throughout the entire process. The emperor snorted softly, "Even if she didn't do it on purpose, she still has to take responsibility for her own stupidity!"
"Doctor He, do you admit that you are from the Tian family?"
Doctor He knelt on the ground and denied it outright: "I don't know the Tian family!"
The emperor did not continue to question him, but only ordered the eunuch beside him: "Take the man away and hand him over to the Dali Temple for personal interrogation."
Even if you don't die from the interrogation by the Dali Temple, you will lose a layer of skin...
Doctor He was taken away, and Jing Yuchen and Ni Gaofei were still kneeling on the ground.
The Emperor looked at His Highness, his previous solemnity gone, and his voice calmed down considerably. "Lord Ni, Miss Ni and the Second Prince are getting married soon. Shuangpin lost the heir in the Prime Minister's Residence. If Shuangpin witnessed this happy event, wouldn't she be sad?"
"Lord Ni, remember to comfort Concubine Shuang. Once she returns to the palace, we can hold the wedding for the Second Prince and Ni Yueshan. Let's put it off for now!"
"I obey the decree!"
Jing Yuchen looked at the emperor in surprise. Is it necessary to be so deceiving?
What does Ni Yueshuang’s son’s death have to do with his wedding to Ni Yueshan?
"Father!" Jing Yuchen opened his mouth to speak, but the emperor immediately rebuked him, "I haven't said how to punish Ni Yueshan yet!"
Jing Yuchen immediately shut up, "Father, the wedding date has been postponed. I believe Yueshan will reflect on this. Thank you for your grace!"
The emperor snorted coldly: "So do you still want to get married right away?"
"I don't want to think about it anymore! Not at all! Soothing Madam Shuang is the most important thing!"
Jing Yuchen changed his words quickly, and the emperor felt a little satisfied.
"Very good, let's go out of the palace with Ni Aiqing!"
"I'll take my leave."
The two of them left the palace together. Jing Yuchen let out a long sigh and looked at Ni Gaofei beside him: "The Prime Minister doesn't seem to care about Yueshan at all?"
