Mo Wenqing arranged for a coroner to go to the village to perform an autopsy on Qu Wenqian.
Before the matter was clarified, Qu Li stood calmly by and watched Fang accuse her.
Qu Yuxing burst into tears, "Master Mo, Qu Li is a rebellious person. She doesn't follow filial piety. She has an extremely vicious heart!"
This statement indirectly confirms that Qu Li is the murderer of Qu Wenqian!
Changle's eyes were blazing with anger, but when he met Qu Li's warning eyes, he could only swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"Master Mo, until everything is investigated thoroughly, I ask to be imprisoned in Jingzhao Prefecture's prison!"
boom--
It was as if a thunder exploded in everyone's mind.
What kind of place is the Jingzhao Prefecture Prison? Everyone is trying to avoid it, but there are actually people who want to go in on their own initiative?
"Li'er, what are you talking about?!"
Changle was the first one to be unhappy.
Qu Li gave her a look that told her to stay calm. Even if she had many questions in her mind, she had to suppress them.
Mo Wenqing was still thinking.
Just at this moment, two people walked in from outside, both of them were people of very high status.
"Second Prince! Fourth Prince!" Mo Wenqing stood up and saluted.
Xiao Ci and Xiao Rui arrived almost at the same time, both wanting to win over Qu Li and help her clear her suspicion.
"Qu Li, don't worry! This prince believes that you definitely didn't kill anyone!" Xiao Ci glanced at Fang and Qu Yuxing with eyes as cold and sharp as a sword.
Xiao Rui secretly competed with him and said with concern: "Yes, this prince also believes that you will never do such a thing!"
A hint of panic flashed in Qu Yuxing's eyes.
He thought that without Xiao Xian, Qu Li would lose his power and he could do whatever he wanted to him!
Unexpectedly, there are people who are willing to stand up for her!
Qu Li's face didn't show any gratitude at all. She said calmly, "I appreciate the Second and Fourth Prince's kindness! However, I believe that those who are innocent will be cleared!"
Xiao Ci and Xiao Rui were both a little disappointed.
"Second cousin, fourth cousin, those who know think you two are loyal to Li'er and still remember the affection you showed her as the princess of seventh cousin! Those who don't know will try to throw dirty water on Li'er, saying she's having affairs and that's why we need a divorce!"
Changle's words did not save any face for the two of them. Their faces turned pale and blue, and they could hardly maintain any expression.
Qu Li secretly gave Changle a thumbs up, with a smile in his eyes.
"Prince Chen has arrived!"
When they suddenly heard the voice of the relay, everyone thought they had heard it wrong.
Seeing the tall man walking towards them step by step with a dignified pace, everyone suddenly came back to their senses.
"Seventh brother, why are you here?" Xiao Ci frowned, looking displeased.
Xiao Xian glared at him coldly, "If my second brother can come, why can't I?"
Xiao Rui has always been more tactful than others. Seeing Xiao Ci being humiliated, he remained quiet and did not provoke Xiao Xian.
In his opinion, Xiao Xian still cared about Qu Li, but because of Rong Yehua, Qu Li refused to be demoted to a concubine.
"Aren't I quite surprised? You and Qu Li just divorced. It is said that couples who harbor hatred for each other can easily become enemies!" Xiao Ci was suppressed by his gaze, and his voice became lower and lower.
He didn't want to lose face in front of everyone, so he finished speaking.
Xiao Xian snorted and rubbed his fingers.
"Just now, my father asked me to be responsible for supervising the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Justice, and Jingzhao Prefecture. If there are any unjust, false or wrong cases, I will not tolerate them!"
His words were powerful and gave people an endless sense of oppression.
Ever since she found out that he slept with Rong Yehua, Changle has been harboring resentment towards Xiao Xian.
At this moment, I actually feel that he seems to be more pleasing to the eye than before.
Noticing her gaze, Xiao Xian turned his head to look over.
Their eyes met, and Changle quickly looked away.
Xiao Xian's gaze passed over her, lingered on Qu Li's face for a moment, and then moved away.
There was a complex look in his eyes.
He really couldn't bear to leave her!
Xiao Ci frowned.
The emperor really favors the seventh son and entrusts him with all the good things!
Seeing through his thoughts at a glance, Xiao Xian said coldly with a hint of ridicule: "The imperial edict will arrive soon!"
Mo Wenqing cupped his hands and said, "I will fully cooperate with Prince Chen!"
Xiao Xian lifted the corner of his robe and sat down next to him.
"Then let's continue the trial!"
Mo Wenqing nodded. "I have already asked the coroner to go to Zhuangzi to perform an autopsy on Qu Wenqian. The results should be out soon."
"You can go ahead and interrogate him freely, and pretend that I'm not here!" Xiao Xian said with a stern face and a deep tone.
Xiao Rui unfolded the folding fan in his hand somewhat angrily.
I was thinking of giving Qu Li a good deal, but I didn't expect that Xiao Xian would snatch the advantage away from me!
Mo Wenqing briefly explained his thoughts when footsteps were heard outside. It was the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict.
Xiao Xian received the imperial edict, and there was still no extra expression on his face.
Mo Wenqing looked at Fang and said, "Fang, you said Miss Qu went to the manor yesterday and that it was after she treated Qu Wenqian that Qu Wenqian suddenly passed away. Is there anyone who can attest to this?"
Whenever Fang mentioned this incident, her heart, liver, spleen and lungs ached terribly.
"Qu Li is so murderous and heartbreaking! No one could have imagined she could be so vicious!"
She cried bitterly, and her tears fell to the ground.
Changle couldn't hold it in any longer: "You're really interesting. Li'er was in the clinic the whole day yesterday, and so many patients can testify to that!"
Everyone present remembered the people who had knelt on both sides of the long street not long ago, pleading for Qu Li despite the scorching sun.
That scene will be unforgettable for everyone who has seen or heard it!
It was precisely because of this that Xiao Rui wanted to make his presence felt in front of Qu Li. If he could win over Qu Li, it would mean winning over the hearts of the people and gaining the support of poor students all over the world!
Fang was stunned for a moment.
Mo Wenqing instructed his subordinates to find a few random civilians to understand the situation. Then, his solemn gaze returned to Fang's face, and his voice deepened several degrees: "Fang, do you have anything else to say?"
Fang opened her mouth and said, "Every time I went to see her before, she would give me some white pills. After Wen Qian took them, his condition did improve! I trusted her so much, but she..."
Mo Wenqing frowned, "If you continue to cry, I'll wait until you calm down before I tell you."
"When she showed up at the farm yesterday, I was happy! After all, I went to find her at the time because I really wanted her to go and help Wen Qian in person! So, the moment she showed up, I was especially happy.
However, I never expected that she would be so vicious! She actually poisoned Wen Qian and killed him!"
There was another heart-wrenching cry, and the person crying felt very upset.
Changle gritted his teeth and said, "If you cry again, I will kill you!"
Fang's eyes were blazing with fire. She pointed at her and shouted to Mo Wenqing, "Master Mo, did you see that? The Princess of Changle County is in cahoots with her!"
