Miao Qinghua's face froze. She slammed her palm on the table and shouted angrily, "What's with your attitude?! Is it because your father is in a coma that I am not your mother in your eyes?"
Although Jing Yuchen was scolded, she showed no fear at all and responded with a cold expression: "Mother, you'd better calm down and look at this!"
Jing Yuchen's hand trembled, and a piece of paper with black words written on it was spread out. The three big words on it were particularly obvious -
Life and death certificate!
Miao Qinghua's expression changed drastically. She never expected that Wan Bang, that idiot, would actually sign such a thing with Jing Yuchen!
If Jing Yuchen was not absolutely sure, why would he sign such a thing with him?
Even if she became a dead soul under Jing Yuchen's knife now, she couldn't make decisions for him!
Seeing Miao Qinghua's face turned ashen and distorted, Jing Yuchen just curled his lips slightly and threw the life and death certificate to the palace servant beside him.
"Take it and show it to the Queen Mother carefully, in case her eyesight is poor and she can't see clearly. Of course, you can also read it to her so that she can understand the meaning!"
Miao Qinghua looked at Jing Yuchen with anger on her face and asked, "General Wan was stabbed to death by a dart, and you dare to say it had nothing to do with you?"
Although Jing Yuchen was being questioned, he looked relaxed: "It is related. He blocked the dart for me. I should give him a grand funeral!"
Miao Qinghua was just annoyed: "Then why don't you chop off his head!"
Jing Yuchen sighed innocently, "Gratitude is gratitude, hatred is hatred. He killed Qingdie, that's hatred, and saved me, that's gratitude. Mother, I have a clear distinction between gratitude and hatred. Even if I chop off his head, it's General Wan's willingness to accept defeat. Why not?"
Miao Qinghua was obviously very angry. She glared at Jing Yuchen fiercely, but she couldn't say anything else. In the end, she held her forehead with her hand in pain.
Ni Yueshan, standing aside, spoke helplessly, "This is a temple. Seeing blood in front of the Buddha is a sin. Mother, please have the body buried quickly. Oh, and please also arrest the assassin swiftly. The prince came here without anyone by his side. You'll have to worry about this, Mother!"
Then Ni Yueshan bowed, and it was obvious that he was about to leave.
Miao Qinghua closed her eyes, held her forehead and didn't want to look at the two of them.
"Your son will take his leave!" Jing Yuchen said, holding Ni Yueshan's hand and preparing to leave.
Miao Qinghua's voice rang out from behind: "You haven't found any evidence yet that Ye Xingyi isn't one of those two maids?"
Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan paused. Miao Qinghua opened her eyes, a cold glint in her eyes: "If you can't find any evidence of their innocence, it's only natural that I will take their heads!"
"Don't worry, mother. Yueshan and I are more anxious than you are and will actively investigate." After responding coldly, Jing Yuchen pulled Ni Yueshan away.
As soon as the two left, Miao Qinghua fiercely swept the teacup off the table.
After leaving, Ni Yueshan said solemnly, "The horse dog tracked the night clothes to that room. Qingfeng and Qingluan were imprisoned in the room. This also proves that the clothes should belong to them!"
"If this was truly the Queen's doing, it means she had someone tamper with the nightgown beforehand. She can't deny it!"
Jing Yuchen looked at Ni Yueshan and raised his lips. That evil face looked extremely pleasing to Ni Yueshan's eyes, but that smile seemed very strange.
"What did you think of?"
"Method." Jing Yuchen opened his lips lightly and uttered two words. His expression looked extremely confident. Ni Yueshan's heart was filled with joy and he asked curiously, "What method did you come up with?"
"Qingfeng and Qingluan can be saved. Miss Xiao will be here soon. Let her treat their injuries. I believe they will be well soon!"
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen with his distinct black and white eyes, which shone slightly. Then he crossed his arms over his chest and asked, "Who is smarter, me or you?"
There was a hint of joking in his tone of voice.
Jing Yuchen pinched Ni Yueshan's cheek: "Why do I feel that you are a little jealous..."
In the evening, Jing Yuchen invited Miao Qinghua to come over. Miao Qinghua sat down in front of the door of the room with a hint of impatience on her face.
"The Crown Prince sent for me to come here, but have you found any clues? I must return to the palace tomorrow morning. If there is no further progress, I will lose my patience and will have to torture them both to find out who is behind this!"
Although that's what she said, since Ni Yueshan's maid was an assassin, it goes without saying that Ni Yueshan must be the mastermind behind this...
Although Miao Qinghua did not say this explicitly, her words were suggestive.
Ni Yueshan was not angry either. She said to Jing Yuchen, "Prince, what exactly do you want to do by calling the Queen Mother here? Stop keeping us in suspense!"
Jing Yuchen glanced at the servant next to him, and the servant immediately came over and presented him with a nightgown.
Jing Yuchen said, "Mother, why don't you check to see if this nightgown has been swapped by your son?"
Miao Qinghua glanced at it coldly, but did not check it herself. Instead, she asked the palace maid beside her to go forward and check.
Afterwards, the palace maid walked up to Miao Qinghua and shook her head, indicating that there was no problem.
Miao Qinghua finally spoke: "Nothing was switched!"
Jing Yuchen showed a satisfied expression, and saw a horse dog being led over.
"Mother, my son's original idea was to let the horse dog smell the clothes so that he could track down the owner of the clothes. Now I want to use the horse dog. Do you agree, mother?"
Miao Qinghua's eyes were filled with impatience: "I agree!"
The Malinois came forward and sniffed twice, then barked twice, wagged its tail, and ran in one direction impatiently.
The servant couldn't hold the horse dog back any longer, so he started running away quickly.
Miao Qinghua was surprised to see the Malinois running in another direction.
Then she looked at Jing Yuchen, who rubbed his chin with his hand: "From what I have learned, Qingfeng and Qingluan are imprisoned in the room behind this. How come... the dog ran in the other direction?"
Miao Qinghua's face was gloomy. "Don't worry, I found one too."
Soon, another dog was brought over. Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan were not surprised and just watched quietly.
After another round of sniffing, the Malinois did not go in the direction the previous Malinois had gone, but circled around, sniffing everywhere, but in the end found nothing, so it sat down quietly, stuck out its tongue at Miao Qinghua, and barked twice ingratiatingly.
Miao Qinghua frowned. What was going on?
"Mother, this dog didn't notice anything. If Qingfeng and Qingluan are really the owners of this nightgown, they are so close, the dog shouldn't have failed to notice it, right?"
"Why not lead the dog closer to them? Just as a horse can stumble, a dog can also fail."
Jing Yuchen raised his lips slightly, the confidence and mockery in his eyes were so obvious...
