Mingyan obviously didn't know why she was asked this question, but she still answered honestly: "...Yes, it was the young lady, she wanted to treat my illness!"
Mingyan did not lie, what she said was completely true. However, her words undoubtedly made it impossible for Ni Yueshan to defend himself, making him the real guilty person.
Ni Yueshan chuckled. This was a very good plan of frame-up.
Ni Yueshuang's work? Ni Yueshan still didn't believe that it was Ni Yueshuang's plan. After all, Longzi was too noble. To kill Longzi in order to deal with her was too high a price to pay.
Ni Gaofei looked at Ni Yueshan, his face full of disappointment: "How can you justify yourself?"
Ni Yueshan frowned and responded, "Father, if your daughter really wanted to cast a spell on Mingyan, why would she do it herself?"
"Why did Doctor He commit suicide? Wasn't it because he was coerced by you? You asked him to teach you the art of poisoning!" The housekeeper immediately took over Ni Yueshan's words and accused her.
"Dad, I want to start an investigation." Ni Yueshan was not panicked. He wanted to investigate in depth, perhaps there would be clues.
Ni Gaofei looked indifferent, and obviously didn't want to say more to Ni Yueshan, so naturally he was reluctant to give her any more chances!
"Take the young lady back to her room. When Shuangpin wakes up, we'll decide what to do with her!"
A servant came forward and made a gesture of invitation to Ni Yueshan. Ni Yueshan frowned. Ni Gaofei was unwilling to believe her!
Ni Yueshan was in mixed mood and walked away.
Qingdie stood aside, her expression filled with resentment: "Prime Minister, plotting to murder the heir to the throne is a grave crime. If the young lady can prove her guilt, the emperor will bring charges against her. Not only the young lady, but the entire Prime Minister's residence could be held accountable. Master, why didn't you give the young lady a chance to investigate?"
What Qingdie said made a lot of sense, but Ni Gaofei didn't want to listen!
Ni Gaofei didn't say anything. Qingdie was anxious. The housekeeper said, "Master, this maid is quite skilled in martial arts. If you don't keep her under control, she might go looking for the Second Prince..."
Ni Gaofei closed his eyes and said, "Lock him up!"
The butler showed a triumphant expression: "Yes, I will arrange it right away!"
Mingyan glared at the butler unhappily and walked out, not giving the butler a chance to take action.
In Jidong Pavilion, Ni Yueshan was sitting on a chair thinking about something when Ren Mei pushed the door and walked in.
Ni Yueshan turned to look at Ren Mei, who said speechlessly, "Miss, they have locked Qingdie up alone, and the Prime Minister's residence is also strictly guarded. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Qingfeng to get out!"
Ni Yueshan propped up his forehead with his hand and said, "Sit down, let me sort it out."
Ni Yueshan thought too much and her head hurt a little. She lay on the table, her good mood for the New Year was completely ruined.
Ren Mei wanted to speak to comfort her, but there was a sound of tiles falling outside?
Amidst the astonished gazes of Ni Yueshan and Ren Mei, another curse rang out: "Who is so bold as to attack this prince? Huh?"
"The villain knows his fault, but he thinks he is a thief..."
Ni Yueshan and Ren Mei looked at each other. Today, Ni Yueshan asked Nanny Bai to call Jing Yuchen over, but she didn't expect that he really came!
Just a sound, full of drunken tunes?
Ni Yueshan went to open the door and saw Jing Yuchen standing at the gate. He was extremely arrogant and the guards knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.
Ni Yueshan chuckled: "Greetings, Second Prince!"
Jing Yuchen's face was filled with displeasure: "When did you get so many guards in your courtyard? How dare you attack this prince? If it weren't for my quick reaction, I would have been hit!"
He shouted in dissatisfaction, couldn't help burping, and then walked towards Ni Yueshan.
Ni Yueshan went forward to support him, and Jing Yuchen pressed his whole body against Ni Yueshan.
Ren Mei hurried forward to help, but Jing Yuchen didn't want her to touch him. He continued to press his whole body on Ni Yueshan and rubbed him.
"Xiao Shanshan, you smell so good!"
Ni Yueshan rolled her eyes at him and said, "You smell nice too, but it's just the smell of wine!"
She helped Jing Yuchen to the bed and let him lie down. The guards outside the door did not dare to say a word to Jing Yuchen. They silently retracted their heads and continued to watch.
Ni Yueshan looked at the drunk Jing Yuchen helplessly, "Ren Mei, is there hot water in the room?"
Ren Mei shook her head helplessly, Ni Yueshan frowned and said, "Forget it, let Jing Yuchen sleep here first!"
*
When it was almost dawn but not yet daybreak, someone came to summon Ni Yueshan to Zhuzhi Pavilion.
Inside Zhuzhi Pavilion, there was a faint sound of crying coming from inside. It was Ni Yueshuang.
Ni Yueshan walked in. Ni Yueshuang's eyes were bloodshot and her face was pale. She pointed at Ni Yueshan and said, "Dad, why did you let this evil person in?"
Ni Gaofei frowned and patted Ni Yueshuang on the back: "Let her come so you can interrogate her."
Ni Yueshuang wiped her face with a handkerchief and shook her head while crying: "No, my daughter doesn't want to see her! My daughter wants her to die for my dragon heir!"
"Dad, there are still doubts in this matter. Your daughter needs to investigate, and then she will be able to restore the truth." Ni Yueshan ignored Ni Yueshuang and looked straight at Ni Gaofei.
Ni Yueshuang snorted coldly and taunted, "Investigate the truth? Ni Yueshan, you still want to play tricks? What, are you still going to say that I faked the pregnancy and miscarriage?"
Ni Yueshuang shook Ni Gaofei's arm and said, "Dad, before the Emperor is furious and issues an imperial decree to punish the murderer, you should quickly bring the murderer to justice. Then the Emperor will think that you are putting justice above your own family and will not punish the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
Ni Gaofei did not refute and remained silent.
He turned to look at Ni Yueshan, who spoke sternly, "Dad, someone is trying to frame me and murder Shuangpin's offspring. This kills two birds with one stone! If we don't find this person, there will be endless trouble!"
