When Mu Yunjin and Chu Li went to and from the interrogation hall of Dali Temple, the outside of Dali Temple was already full of onlookers, and many people cursed after seeing Mu Yunjin getting off the carriage.

Although these people deliberately lowered their voices because of fear, some unpleasant words still reached Mu Yunjin's ears.

Mu Yunjin frowned, and being scolded like this again for no reason made her feel annoyed for a while.

After entering the interrogation hall, Chen Pu was sitting on the interrogation platform.

On the side, Master Huaiyuan, Li Yingxuan, Li Mingzhong, including Mrs. Li, and a series of people involved have all arrived.

The atmosphere in the entire interrogation hall was weird and solemn.

Chen Pu's complexion was also not very good-looking. This case is extremely difficult, and no one is easy to offend.

But he also sent his subordinates to examine the Buddha statue and searched the Shuiyun Temple, without any clues.

Letting Mu Yunjin come to the interrogation hall now is nothing more than a show for the people to see.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Pu looked through the case book and formally decided to start the trial.

"Princess Ning, have you ever seen the Buddha statue in the darkroom of Shuiyun Temple?" Chen Pu cut to the chase and asked Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin nodded, "Yes."

"When did you meet?" Chen Pu asked again.

"I met you two days ago when I went to Shuiyun Temple to pray with the female family members in the palace." Mu Yunjin said.

Hearing this, Chen Pu glanced at the case book, "When did you see that Buddha statue, is there someone accompanying you, or is it just you?"

"At about six o'clock in the morning, King Han of Donglin Kingdom sneaked into the dark room and wanted to remove the Buddha statue. Master Huaiyuan, I, and two friends went to the dark room together." Mu Yunjin said word by word.

When Chen Pu heard this, he turned his eyes to Master Huaiyuan whose hands and feet were tied with iron chains, "What Princess Ning said is true?"

"It's all true. The king of Donglin Kingdom Han is still imprisoned in the prison of Shuiyun Temple." Master Huaiyuan said.

At this time, a woman in white plain clothes spoke contemptuously, "Everyone knows that Master Huaiyuan knew about the Buddha statue and did not report it. Who knows whether Princess Ning and Master Huaiyuan have colluded with this rhetoric."

As soon as these words came out, all eyes were on the woman in plain clothes.

Mu Yunjin looked sideways, and saw that the woman had a graceful posture, and her skin was as crystal clear as jade. At first glance, she was a pampered and pampered woman.

After looking at it for a while, I found that this person was also somewhat familiar. It seemed to be a certain concubine of Emperor Ximing before, but I couldn't name her.

"Are you the one who claimed to have seen me touch the Buddha statue?" Mu Yunjin folded her arms and looked at the woman in plain clothes.

The woman in plain clothes looked at Mu Yunjin and nodded, "That's right, Aijia did see you enter the dark room with his own eyes, and it was only you, without the Master Huaiyuan and friends you mentioned."

Sad family?

Mu Yunjin did some calculations, and besides Empress Dowager Zheng and Empress Dowager Rui, there was only one concubine who could call herself that.

But this woman in plain clothes, who is only in her thirties, is already a concubine?

After a pause, Mu Yunjin didn't bother with this question, and continued to speak——

"Then when and where did you see me? When you saw me enter the dark room, was there someone beside you who witnessed this? How did you determine that I was the only one in the dark room and that I touched the Buddha statue alone?" Mu Yunjin asked a series of questions.

Since it is a lie, a lot of loopholes can be found by random reasoning.

This woman is afraid to be another scapegoat in her early years.

The woman in plain clothes didn't seem panicked when she heard this series of questions, and she answered them one by one, "I saw you when the time was not up. After you finished talking with Zhuang Yuyan, you went to Master Huaiyuan's monastery. At that time, Master Huaiyuan was accompanying Empress Dowager Rui to offer incense, so he was not in the monastery at all. Also, you also fabricated King Han of Donglin Kingdom. He never appeared in the dark room, and he was not in the secret prison of Shuiyun Temple."

"The court ladies and eunuchs beside Aijia have seen what Aijia said, and there are a few accompanying nobles and talented people. If you don't believe me, you can send them to confront."

After the woman in Su Yi finished speaking, Mu Yunjin knew that she had really come prepared.

Rong Min, I am afraid that he has already been rescued from the prison at this moment.

Now, both sides have their own arguments, and they all have reasons. For a while, it is really impossible to judge who is right and who is wrong.

Mu Yunjin only knew that once this happened, even if she was innocent, she would have to be held back for a while.

Chen Pu originally heard Mu Yunjin ask a series of questions, and thought it would be reversed, but this Concubine Liu Xian is not a good person to deal with, and now even he doesn't know what to do.

It stands to reason that he tried his best to keep Mu Yunjin.

But right now, I can't find a good way.

After thinking for a while, Chen Pu quietly gave Chu Li a look for help.

Chu Li sat aside, as if he didn't see Chen Pu's eyes, his face was tense, and he didn't say a word.

Due to her special status, even though she was a suspect, Li Yingxuan who had been sitting and listening to the case said at this time, "Concubine Liu, what you said is wrong. After meeting Miss Zhuang, I stayed with Princess Ning the whole time. Then I went to the Buddhist hall to offer incense and pray for blessings, until a man in black rushed into Shuiyun Temple to assassinate..."

"The emperor is also aware of the assassination of the man in black, and Mr. Chen should be aware of it too."

Concubine Liu Xian sneered when she heard this, "Yes, there is indeed a man in black, but after the man in black appeared, there was no disturbance at all, and they were silenced one by one. Who can guarantee that this is not the person sent by Princess Ning to act?"

"In short, you have witnesses, and Ai's family also has witnesses. I'll trouble Mr. Chen to investigate this matter thoroughly."

"Everyone knows that since Ai's family entered the palace, they stayed in their bedroom to worship Buddha all day long, and rarely participated in various activities in the palace, and they had nothing to do with Concubine Ning. There is absolutely no need to deliberately frame Concubine Ning like this."

"It's just that the matter is of great importance now, involving the lives of the Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager Rui. Aijia is just telling what he sees and knows, so as to facilitate Mr. Chen's trial."

"If it turns out that the Ai family really wronged Concubine Ning, then the Ai family will give herself a piece of white silk as an apology."

The righteousness of Concubine Liu Xian's words made the people watching outside the door applaud for a while, expressing their support for Concubine Liu Xian's words.

Indeed, in the eyes of the common people, Concubine Liu Xian's words were well-founded, and Mu Yunjin often caused some disturbances in the past, so most of the common people subconsciously acquiesced to Concubine Liu Xian's words.

Mu Yunjin sneered, and looked at Concubine Liu Xian, "A piece of white silk, apology with death, I remember these eight words."

Concubine Liu Xian smiled back.

"There is also this new empress who poisoned and murdered Empress Dowager Rui, which is also a heinous crime." Concubine Liu Xian 'reminded' Chen Pu again.

After finishing speaking, he was helped up by the maid beside him, "Ai's family has to go back to the palace to deal with the affairs of the Supreme Emperor, so it is inconvenient to stay longer. If necessary, Lord Chen can order someone to summon Ai's family at any time."

After the words fell, Concubine Liu Xian walked out of the interrogation room.

Chen Pu originally thought that Mu Yunjin and Chu Li would make the next move, but the two of them tacitly kept still, allowing Concubine Liu Xian to leave Dali Temple slowly.

Chen Pu had no choice but to look at Chu Li.

Chu Li nodded slightly towards Chen Pu.

Chen Pu immediately understood, made a decision, and said, "Since both parties have testimonies, I still need to verify them one by one. During this period, Princess Ning Mu Yunjin is confined to Prince Ning's residence and is not allowed to go out for the next summons."

After finishing speaking, Chen Pu carefully looked at Chu Li again.

"My lord, my lord, we Xuan'er must have been wronged, and please search for the evidence carefully and return us Xuan'er's innocence." Mrs. Li, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help but speak.

Her family, Xuan'er, was really full of disasters. It wasn't long after she became the queen. First, she was taken away, and then she was framed and poisoned...

If I knew this earlier, I might as well marry an ordinary family.

Chen Pu was suffering from a headache, all the mess was spread on his head, and he was not pleased.

"Let's come here first today, leave the hall!" After Chen Pu finished speaking, he got up and left quickly.

...

On the carriage back to the palace, Mu Yunjin made a decision.

"I will go to Tiansheng Continent tomorrow, you stay here and deal with the affairs of Emperor Ximing and Empress Dowager Rui," Mu Yunjin said.

The beginning of July is approaching, since senior Murong has calculated this opportunity, it must be beneficial to them, if they miss this opportunity, they don't know when the next time will be.

She was tired of dealing with these thieves.

If you want to live a stable life, these people must be excluded!

What's more, there is still the time bomb of Leng Yuan, she must not take it lightly, and must get rid of it as soon as possible.

Chu Li held Mu Yunjin's hand, frowned slightly, "I'm going with you."

"No, if you don't participate in the affairs behind Emperor Ximing, people in the world don't know how to talk about you, maybe they will say that we fled in fear of crime." Mu Yunjin refused.

"Huan'er, what do people in the world have to do with us?" Chu Li asked Mu Yunjin, his eyes full of determination.

Mu Yunjin was startled, and her thoughts drifted back to the past...

That's right, there was a time when everyone in the world couldn't tolerate her and Si Qing.

Now that I am reliving my life, why do I have to take other people's eyes into consideration...

She is like this, she often forgets the essence of many things because she thinks too much and has too many scruples.

This is probably what she dislikes most about herself.

...

After returning to the palace, the inside and outside of the palace were surrounded by imperial guards. Inside the palace, the guards were so strict that not even a fly could fly out.

As soon as Mu Yunjin returned to her room, she began to tidy up her things.

The phoenix tail whip, the decree of the gods, the black jade hairpin, the military decree of the Donglin Kingdom and other useful things are all carried close to the body.

Chu Li walked aside, opened a dark cabinet on the wall, took out a brocade box from inside, and took out the bracelet given by the monarch of Nanting Kingdom in the brocade box, and several bells on it also rang clearly.

"Take this too." Chu Li handed it to Mu Yunjin.

Mu Yunjin looked at the bracelet and was a little puzzled for a moment, "What are you wearing this for?"

Chu Li chuckled, grabbed one of the bells, and shook it in Mu Yunjin's ear.

Mu Yunjin was taken aback, "This bell has no sound?"

As soon as she thought about it, Mu Yunjin immediately came to her senses, grabbed the bell, and took a closer look, and found that something was stuffed inside the bell.

What Yun Guangyao gave was kept so secretive, could it be... Xue Po Pill?
