"Xiliang Da Yanshi, this is clearly slander!"
"I only said that the Crown Princess was a suspect, but I didn't say it was definitely her fault. How can this be considered slander?"
"This king's woman will not tolerate your questioning! Your questioning of her is slander against her!"
"Prince Qianye!" Mo Yunfang was enraged by this completely unreasonable man. "You're so protective of your own shortcomings, aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by envoys from other countries?"
Qian Yeming sneered, took out a piece of paper from his bosom, and said, "Princess Ya went to Nanyue twice. Once, she injured civilians in the royal temple and ordered people to kill the people in the Marshal's Mansion who blocked her way, resulting in a murder. In the end, she was beaten up by my Crown Princess and even had to pay compensation. This made the Crown Princess have a grudge against her, and she threatened to kill my Crown Princess.
Everyone saw at the Six Nations Chamber of Commerce this time that Princess Ni Ya wanted to marry me, and after being rejected by me, she took her anger out on the Crown Princess and threatened to kill her.
After all, if we are bitten by a mad dog, we can't hug the mad dog and bite it, right? So what I mean is, we can't afford to provoke her, but we can afford to avoid her and not bother with her.
But the day before yesterday, this woman who had threatened to kill my Crown Princess twice suddenly asked the Crown Princess to meet her by the lake today. Not only did she apologize, she also gave her a gift, and the gift was the rare flowing cloud brocade that the Crown Princess is wearing now.
As the saying goes, if someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. I believe that everyone has their own yardstick in their hearts, and everyone knows what is right and what is wrong.
Xiliang Da Yanshi, you said this matter is related to my Crown Princess, and because my Crown Princess had contact with my princess today, she became a suspect. Then, may I ask, if your princess hadn't been so nosy and insisted on my Crown Princess coming out, how could they have come into contact?"
"..." After hearing what Qian Yeming said, Mo Yunfang was instantly speechless.
She truly had no idea Yeluya had gone to Murong Xiao alone, much less that she'd been so foolish as to post a message inviting Murong Xiao to a boat trip. She'd only just heard that Murong Xiao was with her today, and now that Qian Yeming had brought something out like this, even she felt that anyone with a clue would suspect Yeluya of having ulterior motives.
"Oh, right!" Seeing Mo Yunfang speechless, Qian Yeming continued, "Just now, after I received the Crown Princess, she told me that today Princess Ya insisted that she take off her clothes and put on your Xiliang Liuyun brocade. If she doesn't, she can't leave.
At the time, the Crown Princess felt something was amiss, but since the ship was filled with Xiliang guards, she had no choice but to wear it. So, before donning the Flowing Cloud Brocade, she took precautions and inspected it. She noticed a fine white powder on the lining. She covered her mouth and nose, shook the garment, and then donned the golden silk armor the King had gifted her. The golden silk armor was practically invulnerable to swords and spears, so a mere white powder certainly wouldn't harm her.
However, I have already sent the white powder on her clothes to the Imperial Hospital. I want to see what Princess Ya did to my Crown Princess's clothes. If it is poison, Xiliang Da Yanshi, you must speak up.
Also, I've ordered my men to surround your Xiliang Inn. I believe there should still be white powder inside there that's similar to the one on the Crown Princess's clothes, right?"
