Nanny Xi was taken to Yonghe Palace by the eunuchs from the Criminal Justice Department.
She was a little panicked. Could it be that she had really been found out? Impossible, absolutely impossible.
"I wonder what crime I have committed?" Nanny Xi pretended to be calm.
Wu Mi said coldly, "You used the Faceless Powder to poison, but you still don't tell the truth. Who ordered you to do this?"
Nanny Xi was shocked.
How did you find her?
Nanny Xi refused to admit it, "I don't know what Eunuch Wu is talking about."
Ning Wanyin, who was sitting in the main seat, watched this scene and said, "Call the witness."
Lianrui walked in with a commoner girl.
This was exactly the palace maid that Ning Wanyin had someone look for outside the palace yesterday.
When Nanny Xi saw the woman's familiar face, she immediately sensed something was wrong.
This was the person who used to work with her in Concubine Yi's palace.
During the time of the previous emperor, she left the palace when she reached old age.
Now she suddenly appears here, could it be that she also knows about what happened back then?
"After Concubine Yi passed away, I sorted out her belongings and found a box of faceless powder." The woman came in, knelt down and saluted, and told everything:
"I was very scared at the time and wanted to destroy it, so I immediately hid the faceless powder on my body and prepared to destroy it secretly."
In the case of the Faceless Powder, all the palace maids in the Zhao Palace were executed.
How could she not be afraid when she saw Wuyanfen? If the Zhao family palace dealt with them according to their treatment, all of them would probably have to die.
So she wanted to destroy the body.
"Just after I hid the faceless powder, Aunt Xi came in. I was afraid that she would find out that I had hidden something, so I left first."
"After I left, I remembered that the bedroom had not been cleaned yet, and there might be some faceless powder, so I hid outside the door and watched secretly. I saw with my own eyes... Aunt Xi found a box of faceless powder and a prescription."
Concubine Yi died of complications during childbirth.
She died suddenly and didn't have time to destroy the things she had hidden.
Nanny Xi picked up the recipe for the Faceless Powder, and she thought she was the only one who knew it.
She didn't expect that besides her, there was another person who also discovered the faceless powder.
What was even more unexpected was that someone would investigate Concubine Yi, who had nothing to do with Zhao.
"Aunt Xi pretended nothing happened, and I was secretly happy. I was worried that Wu Yan Fan would cause trouble again sooner or later, so I left the palace as soon as I reached the age of 18."
A trace of guilt flashed in my eyes. "I wanted to destroy the Faceless Powder, but I knew it was extremely important... I kept it in the bottom of the box."
This is the only evidence that can prove Zhao's innocence.
She was just an ordinary palace maid. She wanted to save her own life, but she couldn't bear to destroy the evidence of others' vindication, so she didn't destroy it and chose to stay.
Over the years...
She thought that no one would mention this matter again.
Unexpectedly, the people sent by Ning Wanyin found her and confessed everything in exchange for the promise of saving her life.
Aunt Xi turned pale. She thought she was the only one who knew this secret.
turn out to be……
Another palace maid also saw the faceless powder.
Wu Mi was also very shocked by the truth of this old case.
Wu Yanfen reappeared in the palace. He checked Zhao and her palace maids countless times but found no clues.
Who knows...
The case file of the Criminal Court is not accurate. This is a false and wrongful conviction.
And the Imperial Concubine was able to find out that Zhao was wrongly accused, and then found Concubine Yi, and then tracked down this palace maid...
Wu Mi was amazed.
Lian Rui presented a box of face powder that she had taken out of the woman's box.
There are both witnesses and evidence.
Nanny Xi had no way to deny it. At this point, she could only say, "It was I who accidentally spilled the faceless powder on the plum tree. No one instructed me to do this. It was all my own carelessness..."
She wanted to distance herself from Ye Zhaoyi, but even if she didn't admit it, Ye Zhaoyi was her master.
The mastermind behind the scenes is clear at a glance.
Ning Wanyin said in a deep voice, "Lianrui, go to Ganxin Palace to report to His Majesty."
To interrogate a concubine, the emperor's order is required.
…
Dyed Maple Pavilion.
As soon as Ye Zhaoyi was taken away by Nanny Xi, she had a bad feeling.
She didn't have to wait long.
In less than half an hour, Wu Mi brought people to Ranfeng Pavilion again.
"What are you doing?" Ye Zhaoyi looked panicked.
Wu Mi said, "His Majesty has ordered that Ye Zhaoyi go to the Criminal Justice Department."
"I won't go, I won't go...I want to see His Majesty..." Ye Zhaoyi shouted hurriedly.
Wu Mi waved his hand, and two eunuchs rushed forward and took Ye Zhaoyi away.
Compared to Aunt Xi's toughness.
Ye Zhaoyi simply couldn't stand the interrogation methods of the Criminal Justice Department.
As long as the torture instruments were placed in front of her, she couldn't bear it and confessed everything.
In addition to the case of the faceless fan...
It was also unexpectedly discovered that she had once wanted to fake a pregnancy to frame Ning Wanyin.
Wu Mi immediately reported the details of the case to Ning Wanyin.
Xiao Guizi and other palace maids were shocked when they heard this. Fortunately, the imperial concubine did not come back at that time...
Ning Wanyin's expression didn't change.
Before traveling, Ning Wanyin would arrange for someone to check the road conditions in advance.
If Ye wanted to bump into him, she would be discovered by the palace servants who had checked in advance before she got close.
No wonder Ye’s behavior was so abnormal after she became pregnant.
However, Ning Wanyin still had a doubt about the case file.
Ye Zhaoyi had few people in the palace, only Nanny Xi and the palace maid who was silenced.
There are palace servants patrolling the Plum Garden every day, so there is a chance that they might discover clues.
If it wasn't that she was extremely lucky and the palace servants were careless, then someone was secretly covering it up for her.
…
Wu Mi went to Ganxin Palace to report the case to His Majesty.
Ning Wanyin sent Lianrui to the Criminal Court again. Ye confessed everything and it seemed that she had no accomplices.
