Chapter 129: Investigate the real culprit

Luo Tian was accompanying Robert in front of the bed, hoping that he would wake up soon.

Queen Elaine stepped forward and said to Luo Tian: "This night is still very long. We have just discussed that we will take turns to watch the emperor. Each person will have two hours. You should go back to the bedroom and have a good rest."

"I want to stay here with my father. You should go and rest first. I will call you when my father wakes up." Luo Tian still sat still.

Roger stepped forward, looked at Luo Tian's sad look and sneered: "Someone really knows how to act. He pretends to be a filial son here, but secretly poisons and seeks power to usurp the throne. It's really a good trick."

After Luo Tian heard this, he jumped up in anger. He originally suspected Roger of poisoning, but now this guy has taken the blame and falsely accused others. It's really impossible not to give him some color to see.

"You don't want to slander people. The matter hasn't been investigated yet, so why do you say someone poisoned me? If you have evidence, show it. If you don't, just shut up." Luo Tian shouted sternly.

Roger was reluctant: "I was responsible for the defense of the Ice Palace in the past, and nothing like this has ever happened. Just two days after my father handed over the defense of the Ice Palace to you, something like this happened. What a coincidence in the world."

Is it something? You want evidence. Now that everyone here is yours, I’m afraid the evidence has been destroyed a long time ago, right?"

Luo Tian retorted: "I am indeed responsible for the peripheral defense of the Ice Palace, but the royal kitchen and internal affairs are independent and not under my control. I suspect that you, Roger, have ulterior motives and are worried that your father will pass the throne to someone else, so he took action.

You are secretly poisoning with a murderous intention, just to ascend to the throne in advance, right?"

"You actually shouted "Catch the thief". I am here today to eliminate harm to the family. Roy, Rosa, we will execute this traitor together..." Roger pulled out his sword and slashed at Luo Tian.

Luo Tian was not hesitant, he also drew his sword from his waist and resisted Roger's attack.

"Stop making trouble. Now your father's life or death is uncertain, and you two are here fighting each other for the throne. How can the emperor be so angry when he sees you like this?" Elaine said loudly.

This was the first time Luo Tian saw Elaine lose such a temper, so he stopped attacking and just resisted Roger.

When Roger saw his mother getting angry, he didn't dare to act recklessly, but when he saw Luo Tian didn't put away his sword, he didn't dare to stop either.

The two faced each other with swords, and no one dared to stop. Elaine walked up to them angrily, separated the two swords, and said to Roger: "Put it away first, don't embarrass yourself here." Then she turned to Luo Tian.

: "Although I am not your biological mother, I am still a queen. Your father is still here, so you must at least give me face."

Roger and Luo Tian both put away their swords, but they still hated each other.

Elaine was worried that the two of them would get into trouble again, so she said: "I am your mother. The emperor is in a coma. I am temporarily in charge. From now on, we will take turns to take care of the emperor in the order just now. I am the first, then Rosa, and then

Next is Roger, Roy, and finally Luo Tian. Each of you will have two hours, and then you can go out."

Roy pulled Luo Tian and said, "Third brother, let's go out first. Don't make mother angry again."

Rosa also said to Roger: "Brother, let's go out first and let father have a good rest."

Luo Tian didn't want the situation to be embarrassing. Moreover, Elaine was Robert's only wife. The two had been together for more than thirty years, so they should not harm his father. The most important thing now was to find out the murderer as soon as possible and find out the person who poisoned her.

Luo Tian followed Roy to the living room, while Roger avoided Luo Tian and returned to the bedroom.

"Third brother, I know that Roger just framed you. He has always coveted the throne and will do anything. But now the matter has not been investigated clearly and there is no evidence. I can only hope that my father will get well soon." Roy said.

"By the way, do you know how my father was poisoned?" Luo Tian asked.

Roy shook his head: "I wasn't there at the time. But I heard from Rosa that she had dinner with her father and mother, and her father was still in good health. Later, my father went to the study and talked with others in Kaiyuan.

It was official business and ended up being there for several hours. When the queen mother saw that her father had not come out, she went to the study to see him. At that time, he had already quit Kaiyuan, lying on the desk and lost consciousness. Seeing that things were not going well, the queen mother quickly called the doctor to check.

, the doctor said he was poisoned."

"So the poison was not placed in the dinner, otherwise it would be impossible for only my father to be poisoned." Luo Tian analyzed.

"Yes, after the doctor gave my father the antidote, he checked the study again with the guards. He found an open bottle of wine on the desk, so he took it back for testing. The result was that poison with the same ingredients was found in the wine. It is almost certain that the murderer was

Put poison in the wine," Roy said.

"I understand. The murderer's goal is very clear, which is to poison my father. Second brother, you rest here first. I'll go ask the guards how the investigation is going," Luo Tian said.

"I see you don't look well, let me go with you." Roy said with concern.

"No, you rest here first, you will be on duty later, I can be alone." After Luo Tian finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Luo Tian found Sharp and asked about the current progress of the investigation.

"Prince, we have checked all the servants and chefs in the Heavenly King's Palace, but we haven't found the poisoner yet," Sharp said.

"I heard that the emperor was poisoned after drinking alcohol. Have you followed up on this clue?" Luo Tian asked.

"After checking, we tested the fingerprints on the wine bottle. There was only the emperor's own fingerprints on it, and no second person's were found. And after the emperor entered the study, no one else went in," Sharp said.

"Take me to the study. No matter how clever the murderer is, he will leave traces." Luo Tian said.

Sharp led Luo Tian to the study, and two guards guarded the door to protect the scene.

There was still a strong smell of alcohol in the room, and there were calendars, family photos and other items on the desk. The wine bottles had been taken for testing, and there were still some drinks on the table that had not been cleaned.

"Prince, look here." Sharp pointed to a wine cabinet and said, "The emperor likes wine. There are more than 20 kinds of wine in this wine cabinet. That bottle of wine should have been taken from here. I checked the wine cabinet.

None of the other wines were poisonous. The murderer only poisoned this bottle of wine because he expected that the emperor would drink it."

"What you mean is that the murderer knew very well about my father's taste and drinking habits. It seems that it was definitely someone close to my father who did it," Luo Tian said.

Sharp nodded and said: "Yes. Of course, it is very possible that the murderer is not one person. For example, someone close to the emperor provided information, and then another person completed the poisoning."

"By the way, you just said that all the servants and chefs have been checked and nothing was found. Are there any who are absent today on leave?" Luo Tian asked.

"Report to the prince, there is indeed a servant who asked for leave today. I also ordered someone to look for him. There should be news soon." Sharp replied.

"Okay, you must keep an eye on this person, he may be the breakthrough point." Luo Tian warned.

Luo Tian carefully inspected the wine cabinet and suddenly said to Sharp: "Check again to see if there are any fingerprints of the murderer on this wine cabinet. Check carefully to see where in this room the murderer's fingerprints may have been left."

Sharp nodded: "Understood. I will search again. But the prince must also be mentally prepared. If the murderer is from Tianwang District, he must know that as long as he leaves his fingerprints, we can unlock the information through the fingerprints left by the Kaiyuan system.

If we find him, we will definitely wipe out all traces."
