The owner of the footprints was found, but Luo Xue Ning also said that the owner of the footprints was not the murderer who killed Young Master Yun. The murderer of Young Master Yun was someone else.
But this makes the case even more complicated. If no one explains the matter clearly, people's curiosity will be enough to overwhelm them.
The same was true for Emperor Nan Shao. He looked down at Luo Xue Ning, wishing that Luo Xue Ning could solve all her doubts at once.
However, Emperor Nan Shao still paid great attention to the method. He had to sort out his questions and ask them one by one slowly.
"Luo Xue Ning, I want to ask you, why are there traces of someone else's footprints next to Miss Yun's body?"
At this time, the owner of the footprints, the fat eunuch just now, was detained by the guards and knelt in front of Emperor Nan Shao. When he heard Emperor Nan Shao's question, he lowered his eyes slightly and looked at Luo Xuening. He also wanted to know where the flaw was that was discovered by this novice woman.
But he didn't dare to raise his head, and could only stare at Luo Xuening's long skirt.
"Because, after Miss Yun was injured, this eunuch was the first to find Miss Yun's body. However, instead of reporting it, he did something else and continued to put the blame on others."
The word "blame" made Emperor Nan Shao's expression change immediately. What Luo Xue Ning meant by blame was to put the blame of hurting Miss Yun on Long Mo Xun, and he himself was stupid enough to believe it.
If Luo Xuening had not come to investigate the matter today, Emperor Nan Shao thought uncomfortably that he would have already wronged his son by now.
Emperor Nan Shao felt guilty. He turned around and glanced at Long Mo Xun indifferently. However, Long Mo Xun, receiving the gaze from Emperor Nan Shao, still had an indifferent look, without any emotion or resentment.
Emperor Nan Shao sighed. His son was just like that.
Looking down, Luo Xuening's clear voice rang beside my ears.
"The eunuch left a series of footprints beside Miss Yun's body, but only the pair of footprints closest to Miss Yun's body were deeply sunken."
"Under normal circumstances, when people walk normally, the footprints they leave behind are shallow. However, if the heaviness of the body changes, the footprints will naturally change as well."
"So this eunuch squatted beside Miss Yun's body and checked whether Miss Yun was dead. As for the token in Miss Yun's sleeve, it was stuffed in by the eunuch because when I checked Miss Yun's body, I found that Miss Yun's clothes had some wrinkles. It was obvious that someone had touched Miss Yun's body."
After Luo Xuening finished speaking, she cast an indifferent look at the eunuch who was now restrained by two guards and looked as pale as death.
Emperor Nan Shao glanced at the eunuch indifferently, only to see that the eunuch immediately hung his head without saying a word of excuse, which formed a sharp contrast with his arrogant look just now.
It can be said that he acquiesced.
Emperor Nan Shao secretly gritted his teeth, it was really this eunuch who actually dared to frame Prince Jing. Who gave him the courage?
However, Long Moxun's token appeared inside Miss Yun's clothes. Perhaps it could be said that it was done by someone else, but where is the Xuanming Palm Seal on Miss Yun's body?
Xuanming Palm. In the entire imperial palace, besides Long Moxun, who else can use Xuanming Palm?
So it is impossible to explain the model clearly by just selecting one or two sentences.
The Queen's cold eyes swept fiercely on Luo Xue Ning. She was filled with regret in her heart. Today, she should not have let Luo Xue Ning take over the case just for a momentary anger.
She originally thought that Luo Xue Ning was just a hypocrite, which was why she made such a suggestion. While destroying Long Mo Xun, she would also destroy Luo Xue Ning, who had one foot in Long Mo Xun's camp.
Now, it's great. They didn't expect that Luo Xue Ning was really capable and actually found out the truth layer by layer. Then what was the point of their painstaking frame-up? They were going to waste all their efforts.
The queen snorted coldly, and glanced at Luo Xuening with her indifferent eyes. She sneered coldly, "Prince Jing, this token is something you hold close to you. It is extremely important. How could you let someone steal it so casually?"
This seemingly well-intentioned questioning actually just pushed Long Moxun into the ranks of suspects once again.
Even if Luo Xuening said that the murderer was not Long Moxun, aren't his whereabouts strange?
Emperor Nan Shao's expression turned cold and he stared at the empress unhappily. Then he turned his eyes away. He really wanted to hear how Long Moxun explained.
Long Moxun sneered: "Father, I also want to ask, why would someone in this palace forge an imperial decree? And what is his purpose in deliberately tricking me out?"
"What did you say?"
Emperor Nan Shao narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Long Mo Xun with a vigilant look.
How come he didn't notice such a thing?
"The reason why I was in the outer palace was that someone forged an imperial decree to let me out. However, I found out later and that person got angry and started fighting with me. It was at that time that I found that my token was missing."
"I think it was lost during the fight and was picked up by someone by chance, and used as evidence to frame someone."
When Long Moxun said this, his eyes were full of mockery. Seeing his eyes like this, Emperor Nan Shao felt ashamed and asked with a frown.
"Where is the person who forged the imperial edict?"
"He is dead. I have buried him in the back garden. If you send someone to search for him, I think we can find his body."
The Emperor of Nan Shao suddenly felt a chill on his body. His son, Prince Jing of Nan Shao, was in danger inside the palace, but no one came to help him, forcing him to take action himself.
Emperor Nan Shao suddenly felt guilty. His son had no intention of telling him about his murder. If he didn't ask, he would not have planned to tell him at all.
Emperor Nan Shao felt a little embarrassed. He had always known that Long Moxun had not had a very good life in recent years. There were many dangers around him, and in order to protect himself, he even practiced superb martial arts.
Emperor Nan Shao couldn't imagine how many crises Long Moxun had faced to become so unmoved as he is now.
Thinking about it, I feel inexplicable pain in my heart.
As soon as these words were spoken, the people present only felt gusts of cold wind blowing past. Even on this hot summer day, they only felt the cold air rising from the soles of their feet and rushing up to their heads.
Prince Jing's reputation for cruelty was indeed not for nothing, and Prince Jing never cared about his own reputation.
Everyone turned sideways, trying not to look Long Moxun in the eye, lest Prince Jing accidentally noticed them again and thought of their previous behavior of taking advantage of someone's misfortune. He would get angry and quietly deal with them.
Everyone was in danger, but Emperor Nan Shao had an ugly face, but what else could he say now that things had come to this? He couldn't punish his own son for a eunuch who had falsely conveyed the imperial edict.
"Anyone who falsely conveys the imperial decree should be killed."
Emperor Nan Shao said this with a stiff expression, and then he heard Long Lingxu's indifferent voice, asking casually.
"How could someone in the palace dare to forge an imperial decree? Are you sure this is true?"
Long Lingxun did not hide his doubts. In fact, Long Moxun and the Queen planned this today. They wanted to drag Zhong Long Moxun into the water, but they didn't expect that at the most critical moment, Long Moxun actually escaped.
Long Lingxun was so angry that he couldn't vent it out. He had suppressed Long for too long, so naturally his tone was not good. Emperor Nan Shao glanced at him coldly with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Long Moxun, facing his defeated general, simply gave him a contemptuous look: "If you don't believe me, just go and see for yourself. The body is still in the water, you can pull it out yourself."
Who wants to go to the prison to find the corpse? Long Lingxun felt a chill and stared at Long Moxun fiercely.
Long Lingxun was speechless and retreated abruptly at the Queen's signal.
"Prince Jing, I naturally believe that you must have had a reason to kill someone. However, regarding Miss Yun's case, how could he have your Mysterious Nether Palm Seal on him? I still hope that you can give us an explanation to comfort the deceased and his family."
The Queen's words were very clever. Long Moxun found it funny. Queen, you just want to give yourself a reputation of being cruel and bloodthirsty. But this title is too classic. For so many years, Long Moxun has been focusing on this crime. Now, would he care about what the Queen said at this time?
Long Moxun was too lazy to pay attention to her and his gaze fell on Luo Xuening.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Why don't you explain to them, um, how did my Xuanming Palm Seal appear on the body of a corpse?"
