Princess Consort Is No Pushover

"Yes, Your Majesty." As Yun Ruoyue said, she hurried towards the corpse and observed it carefully.

But after looking around, she found nothing unusual.

Apart from the big wound on the head, the corpse had no other wounds.

Seeing her serious face, the queen said coldly: "Yun Ruoyue, do you see anything?"

Yun Ruoyue stood up slowly, and shook her head heavily, "No, Concubine Lan should have died under this ax!"

After finishing speaking, she looked at Chu Xuanchen worriedly, she was really afraid that he would be wronged.

He believes that Xuan Chen will not kill Lan Wu, he absolutely disdains to do such a thing.

The queen snorted coldly, "Your majesty, Yun Ruoyue is a doctor, and even she didn't see it. It seems that Lan Wu was indeed killed by this axe. The physical evidence has been proven, and we are all witnesses, so it is said that King Li is the real one." fierce!"

As she said that, she looked at Chu Xuanchen again, and said sternly: "King Li, you are a dignified prince. I didn't expect you to put Lan Wu to death because of a little quarrel. You killed my daughter-in-law so cruelly." , is really a heinous crime!"

Speaking of this, she looked at Emperor Hongyuan again, and said with heartache: "Your majesty, you must not let Lan Wu die in vain, we must give her justice. For the sake of the royal family's reputation, I implore you to abolish the title of Prince Li, Sentence him to death again, so that Lan Wu's spirit in heaven can be comforted!"

Yun Ruoyue hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, my nephew believes that Xuan Chen will never kill Lan Wu. He said just now that he saw a woman who looked very similar to me running this way, so he followed here. This is obvious. Someone pretended to be me to lure him here, and then framed him to kill someone. This is a conspiracy, the real culprit must be someone else, please learn from the emperor!"

Chu Xuanchen also cupped his hands, "Your Majesty, I saw that woman clearly at that time. The clothes she was wearing and the hairstyle she wore were all very similar to Ruoyue. The most important thing is that her face was exactly the same as Ruoyue. I suspected that someone had changed her face." Rong Cheng Ruoyue's appearance to lure the minister here is just to lure the minister into this trap, please the emperor must trust the minister!"

Seeing Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue's sincere words, Emperor Hongyuan rolled his eyes.

Before he has cultivated a general who can replace Chu Xuanchen, he must not dispose of Chu Xuanchen at will.

He had learned a lesson from the Battle of Yanzhou before, and now Chu State had to rely on Chu Xuanchen to fight the war, so he would not kill Chu Xuanchen again for the time being.

But if Lan Wu was really killed by Chu Xuanchen, he would not spare him lightly.

Thinking of this, he said coldly: "Xuan Chen, although you are my nephew, if Lan Wu was indeed killed by you, I will definitely punish you severely. The state owns the state laws, and the family has family rules. I will not punish you just because of your meritorious service. Protect you. But this matter is of great importance and needs to be re-tried. You are the only suspect now. I will first deprive you of the title of prince, and then put you in the prison, and I will try it myself!"

"Your Majesty..." Yun Ruoyue was startled upon hearing this.

"Yue'er, don't worry, I didn't kill the person, I believe the emperor will clear me up!" Chu Xuanchen interrupted Yun Ruoyue.

Yun Ruoyue nodded firmly, "Yes, Xuan Chen, I believe in you. Don't worry, I will find a way to find out the real culprit and clear up your grievances!"

"Okay, you don't have to worry, I will be fine if I didn't kill anyone." Chu Xuanchen said, patted Yun Ruoyue's shoulder reassuringly.

At this time, Emperor Hongyuan said: "Come here, take King Li to the prison and temporarily lock him up."
