After hearing these passionate words, Luo Xuening knew that she was now in a difficult situation.
If Luo Xuening had handled today's matter well and found out the cause of Miss Yun's death, perhaps the emperor would be in a good mood and be able to treat her well. At least, she wouldn't have to worry that the emperor would be angry with her or the Prime Minister's Office because of this matter.
However, if this matter is not handled well, she will offend many people today, including the emperor, the empress, the beloved Concubine Jing, and even the family of the deceased Miss Yun.
Luo Xue Ning sighed inwardly. She really didn't check the calendar before going out, which was why she found herself in such an embarrassing situation.
However, the current situation did not allow Luo Xuening to complain.
"Your Majesty, can you allow me to examine Miss Yun's body?"
As soon as Luo Xue Ning finished speaking, she saw a figure stumbling and kneeling beside her. There was a smell of alcohol, but Luo Xue Ning was familiar with this smell.
Isn't this my father?
Why is Prime Minister Luo here?
Luo Xue Ning was just wondering, there was a big commotion here just now, but her father, Prime Minister Luo, didn't come out, but why did he come out now?
However, when she saw the dirt on Prime Minister Luo's knees under his robe, Luo Xue Ning suddenly understood.
It turned out that Prime Minister Luo was late for showing up just now because he was punished by the emperor. He had just managed to escape, but he could not care less and was abandoned by the emperor. He knelt in front of the emperor together with himself.
"Your Majesty, my daughter is only a little smart and can judge cases. It is just a joke for everyone. The matter of Miss Yun is of great importance. Your Majesty, please think twice."
Hearing Prime Minister Luo's plea, Luo Xue Ning felt a pang of sadness in her heart. Her clear eyes had not shed tears just now when the emperor, empress and Concubine Jing repeatedly made things difficult for her, but at this moment, tears were welling up in Luo Xue Ning's eyes.
How unfortunate she was, traveling to this strange world, walking alone, like a monster that could not be tolerated by this world. However, how lucky she was, traveling to this strange world, and still having her family to protect her.
Although the Prime Minister's Mansion was filled with numerous calculations and conspiracies, she was blessed by her parents in this life. For her, who was an orphan in her previous life, this was a godsend.
Looking at Prime Minister Luo's crawling back, hunched over, clearly enduring, yet powerful, Luo Xue Ning looked at Prime Minister Luo standing in front of her, and for the first time she felt like she had the protection of her family.
That’s great! From now on, Luo Xuening is no longer the lonely and helpless person she was in her previous life. She has a home and family.
Therefore, she was unwilling to become a burden to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
"Your Majesty, I volunteered to examine the cause of death for Miss Yun. However, this matter is my personal behavior and has nothing to do with my father, let alone the Prime Minister's Office. I hereby request Your Majesty, no matter what the diagnosis is, please do not be angry with anyone in the Prime Minister's Office."
Luo Xuening's knees have always been hard, even though she lives in this imperial society. However, she has never been content with the imperial power, and every time she kneels down, she does it so nonchalantly.
But this time, she behaved properly and knelt with a clear conscience, because she was a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Since she had already identified with the Prime Minister's Mansion, her behavior was not only responsible for herself alone, she had to consider the Prime Minister's Mansion.
No matter what the outcome of today's incident is, she will guard the Prime Minister's Mansion because her loved ones are there.
Prime Minister Luo looked back at his daughter, his eyes were both relieved and sad. His good daughter had grown up and became sensible, but she was also sensible, which made him feel distressed.
Prime Minister Luo frowned, he knew that Luo Xuening had made up her mind, no matter what he said, it would not change her mind. He just used his years of hard work to accompany His Majesty to plan a way out for Luo Xuening.
If an accident really happens during this test, he also hopes to protect Luo Xuening so that she will not be persecuted.
The emperor was silent. One was his own minister, and the other... The emperor could see that Luo Xuening was innocently dragged into this matter by Concubine Jing.
The emperor still had some conscience, so he acquiesced. No matter what the outcome was, he would not let anything happen to Luo Xuening.
Luo Xue Ning then went forward to examine Miss Yun's body. According to the combined statements of the imperial physician and the coroner, the cause of Miss Yun's death was as follows.
Miss Yun drank a drug that made people lose their mind, and then, when she was not even fully conscious, she got into a fight with someone. As a result, she died under the combined effects of the drug and force.
The person who drugged Miss Yun was the same person, Concubine Jing.
There is nothing unreasonable about this inference, because, from what they learned, Concubine Jing deliberately gave Lady Yun the medicinal wine to drink. Later, Lady Yun discovered Concubine Jing's conspiracy and fought with her. During the fight, Lady Yun scraped off Concubine Jing's rouge, which saved this unjust case.
However, the fact that this inference is not unreasonable does not mean that it is correct, because from the beginning, it did not put the motive of the crime on this case.
If it was really done by Concubine Jing, what was the meaning of her, a favored concubine, going to such great lengths to kill a concubine who was not qualified for a position? Moreover, the deceased was someone who lived in the same palace with Concubine Jing. Wasn't this announcing to the world her evil intentions?
At first, Luo Xue Ning thought that Miss Yun had mastered Concubine Jing's secret. However, when Concubine Jing became nervous and confused herself, Luo Xue Ning felt that it was unlikely that a woman as cautious as Concubine Jing would be caught.
Taking another look at Miss Yun's body, she found that she had died no more than two hours ago. The imperial physician said that she had drunk drugs that would cause a person to lose their minds before she died. However, Luo Xuening saw that she looked calm. If she had not seen with her own eyes that Miss Yun was dead, it would have been difficult for her to imagine that such a calm face could be of someone who had died tragically.
However, if she was mentally ill and had engaged in intense exercise before death, how could she have died in such a way? This is obviously inconsistent with the judgment of the imperial physician.
Luo Xuening felt that the cause of Yun Xiaozhu's death had yet to be confirmed. She looked at Yun Xiaozhu's body carefully and did not find any other suspicious points for the time being. However, there was a causal relationship in the end.
Luo Xue Ning paced around the corpse, step by step, her eyes full of deep thought. The people present watched her movements, and although they were puzzled, they did not dare to step forward. Even the emperor and the empress felt that Luo Xue Ning seemed to have a different aura, which always had the ability to calm people.
Luo Xuening's mind kept turning and thinking. Finally, her eyes lit up and she found the problem.
"Your Majesty, I would like to uncover Miss Yun's clothes and find out the cause of death."
These words shocked the emperor and everyone present.
The emperor frowned and looked at Luo Xuening as if he was looking at a fool. Is this person crazy? Can he just look at the emperor’s woman casually?
However, Luo Xuening was determined to take it all. Since she had intervened in this matter, she naturally could not let it go. In her heart, she had a bold guess about the cause of death of Miss Yun.
"Your Majesty, Miss Yun did not die of poisoning, but was injured. Moreover, her injuries were inside her body and could not be seen through the clothes. She was injured by an expert. As for the medicine in her mouth, it was poured into her after her death."
