Ni Yueshan tried to persuade her earnestly, but Ni Yueshuang sneered, "You're saying it's a frame-up? Then wasn't Doctor He the one you brought back? Could the person behind this be so powerful as to predict the future and plant someone in the military camp?"
Her words were full of sarcasm, but every word seemed to make sense!
"Dad, would you rather believe that your daughter murdered someone than investigate the truth?"
Both of them are Ni Gaofei's daughters, but he is still struggling with who to listen to.
"Dad, you don't have much time to think about this. Someone has already gone to the palace to deliver a message. I believe someone will be there soon!"
Ni Yueshuang's words made Ni Gaofei ponder again, and then he raised his voice: "Come here, imprison the young lady in the woodshed."
His words undoubtedly meant that he believed the murderer was Ni Yueshan!
Ni Yueshan frowned. Didn't Ni Gaofei want her to find out the truth, prove her innocence, and also prove that the Prime Minister's Mansion was innocent?
Ni Yueshan followed the servant out, and soon she understood what Ni Gaofei was thinking.
Perhaps he was afraid that this matter was manipulated by Ni Yueshuang, and if the truth was revealed, the Prime Minister would be charged with deceiving the emperor.
If Ni Yueshan were to sacrifice herself, she alone would be guilty...
Ni Yueshan felt depressed and uncomfortable at the feeling of being abandoned after weighing the pros and cons...
Just as Ni Yueshuang said, the palace quickly sent someone.
First he checked Ni Yueshuang's body and comforted her, and then he began to question her.
"Prime Minister, our Shuangpin was in her prime, but how could she have a miscarriage after returning to her parents' home? Prime Minister, the Emperor is very angry. You must find the murderer!"
Ni Gaofei frowned and responded: "Don't worry, eunuch, I will give the emperor a satisfactory explanation."
The bed curtains on which Ni Yueshuang lay were originally drawn low. She reached out and slowly lifted them, "Eunuch, the suspect is Ni Yueshan, my elder sister. Please conduct a thorough interrogation for me!"
At the same time, Ren Mei rushed into Zhucui Pavilion anxiously: "Madam, this is bad. The young lady has been locked up. The crime is still murdering the emperor's heir. You must get up quickly and investigate the truth for the young lady!"
She threw herself to the bedside. The servant standing nearby said in great distress, "When Shuangpin returned yesterday, the Madam was already too sick from the cold to get up. She's still comatose. How could she have the energy to investigate?"
Ren Mei lifted the bed curtain and took a look. Miao Yuan's cheeks were unhealthily flushed, her eyes were tightly closed, and her breathing was very heavy. She really had no way to make a move.
Ren Mei stood up in a dilemma, then left in a hurry.
In Jidong Pavilion, she walked to the bedside and shook Jing Yuchen vigorously: "Second Prince, something terrible has happened, wake up quickly!"
Jing Yuchen opened his eyes and looked at Ren Mei in confusion: "What's the matter?"
"Young lady has been framed for the murder of the Dragon Heir, Second Prince. This is too serious. You must get up and investigate!"
Jing Yuchen supported his forehead and sat up, his eyes confused...
After his thoughts came back to him, he said, "Please speak carefully."
"It's too late. The young lady is locked up in the woodshed. Someone from the palace has come to interrogate her. The people from the palace have come with the emperor's order. When interrogating a suspect, how can they not use torture..."
Jing Yuchen frowned and quickly got out of bed, not caring about his messy hair and sleepy eyes.
In the woodshed, Ni Yueshan was still sorting out his thoughts when the door was opened. Seeing someone in palace dress walking in, Ni Yueshan narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Are you Ni Yueshan?" a shrill voice asked.
The servants of the prime minister's residence brought a chair and placed it aside, and the eunuch sat down.
Ni Yueshan responded honestly: "That's right."
"Very good. Shuangpin says you are the murderer behind the murder of the heir. There is both witness and evidence. Will you confess your guilt, or will you try to make a few excuses and then be tortured?"
That's not polite at all...
If she opened her mouth to defend herself, she would definitely be tortured, but if she accepted it silently, she would only be convicted, but she would not be punished for the time being.
She looked outside the door. The light outside was too strong and a cold wind was blowing in, but apart from the palace maids and people from the prime minister's residence, no one came out.
Ni Gaofei did not come to her rescue and let the people in the palace deal with her. She really became an abandoned child!
Ni Yueshan lowered his eyes and responded, "Eunuch, you just want to close the case as soon as possible. You don't care who the murderer is?"
The father-in-law scoffed, "Miss Ni, we don't want to get involved in the affairs of your Prime Minister's Mansion. The evidence points to you. It's the easiest way to convict you directly. Why not do it?"
