Chapter 66: Prince Rui's Arrest
Chapter 66 The incident occurred and Prince Rui was arrested
"Uncle Emperor, what are you doing?" Mu Jinchen's passion was instantly frozen by the ice and snow, and He Qinru fell to the ground as soon as he let go of his hand.
She got up awkwardly and stood silently behind Mu Jinchen.
Xuanyuan Ji led dozens of imperial guards and looked at Mu Jinchen with murderous intent: "The prince said that the poison chamber in Prince Rui's mansion contains a large amount of poisons from southern Xinjiang, but is it true?"
"no!"
Mu Jinchen screamed in denial.
He Qinlan set up the poison room, and no one except him and He Qinru knows about it now!
How could it be leaked?
When He Qinru heard about the poison chamber, she suddenly felt bad and quietly stepped back.
For safety reasons, she had to move those things away...
call out!
A dart suddenly came and nailed her skirt to the floor.
If she took another step forward, it would be her feet that were nailed!
"Prince Rui, please explain." Xuanyuan Ji looked at the entrance of the cave. He did not go down to search immediately, but looked at Mu Jinchen.
Xuanyuan Ji ordered again.
"try to find!"
"He Qinlan is dead." Xuanyuan Ji reminded him coldly.
"Your Highness King Chen, there are all idle items here. It seems that no one has entered for a long time." Commander Song of the Imperial Guard said.
Now that the matter has come to this, he can only use He Qinlan, who has been dead for many days, to take the blame. I hope Xuanyuan Ji can believe it...
But from the outside, there were no new footprints in the room.
He Fenggang had just had a quarrel with He's mother about He Qinlan and was sulking.
Looking at a room full of unused items stained with dust, Mu Jinchen said with a smile: "Uncle Emperor, this is the storage room in the house."
Xuanyuan looked at him with disdain: "What's so scary about my own things?"
"yes!"
Mu Jinchen was frightened, his face was as white as paper, and he was trembling non-stop.
He hurriedly ran to Xuanyuan Ji, trying to get close to him: "Uncle Emperor, it's really hard on you in such a cold weather. Shall we go sit in the house?"
The house is filled with dust, step by step, and a burst of flying ash will be stirred up when the clothes are turned.
The icy snowy wind howled, lifting his robe.
"This is not my thing, it belongs to He Qinlan!" Mu Jinchen said tremblingly.
That extremely sarcastic gaze was as cold as snow.
Gu Qingluo's secret letter to the prince not only explained the poison room, but also drew a simple map to clearly indicate the location of the poison room.
Xuanyuan Ji put his hand down, found the right direction and twisted it, and the sound of "clicking" mechanical rotation was heard.
Mu Jinchen was desperate...
…
If those things are discovered, all the hard work will be wasted!
She looked to Mu Jinchen for help: Prince, please find a way to stop them!
Mu Jinchen was even more panicked!
If those things are discovered, he will not be able to get away with poisoning the prince!
Xuanyuan Ji picked up Mu Jinchen and jumped down.
Xuanyuan Ji ignored him and walked in.
"Yes! Digging secretly! Someone must have wanted to harm me and secretly dug this tunnel..." Mu Jinchen blinked in panic, trying to find a perfect reason for himself.
"These idle items are not used at ordinary times, and those servants are too lazy to do their cleaning duties, which makes the emperor laugh." Mu Jinchen pretended to be calm and joked.
Mu Jinchen shook hard twice.
"King Chen, please go down and take a look!" Commander Song sneered and jumped down first.
Everything here is covered with dust, but one edge of the copper basin is shiny - someone has touched it.
"Everything will be clear when we get to the imperial court." Xuanyuan Ji was too lazy to listen to his words and took him away directly.
The iron box is about two feet wide and one foot high. It can be said to have a very large capacity for containing poisonous insects!
If Xuanyuanji hadn't used medicinal powder to stop the poisonous insects from crawling out, everyone who went down to the cellar would have been killed by the poisonous insects.
"Take the evidence of crime and Prince Rui away together!"
Suddenly seeing He Qinru coming back, he was startled and hurriedly pulled her aside: "Ru'er, why are you back?"
Xuanyuan Ji stopped going down and stared at Mu Jinchen: "Dig in secret?"
There was dust on the ground, and every step left footprints.
At this moment, a scream came from the ground: "Ah!"
A luminous pearl as big as the mouth of a bowl illuminated the basement. Commander Song and others who had just gone down were already lying dead in the cellar, with several poisonous beasts crawling on their corpses, eating away at their flesh and blood.
Immediately afterwards, several Imperial Guards also jumped down.
Mu Jinchen was so frightened by this horrific scene that he kept trembling.
"The prince is awake and will accuse you of poisoning and murder." Xuanyuan pushed Mu Jinchen aside impatiently and strode towards the poison room.
The black brocade hunts and kills like a sword.
"It turns out there is a room down there..." Commander Song slapped himself in annoyance, "My subordinate was not cautious enough. Please forgive me, King Chen."
"Ahem!" Mu Jinchen pretended to cover his nose and cough, "The dust is too big, it's so choking! Uncle Emperor, let's get out!"
"No nephew!" Mu Jinchen trotted to follow. The imperial guards had already opened the door of the poison room.
"Poisonous insects in southern Xinjiang." Xuanyuan Ji sneered, took out the powder he had prepared from his sleeve and sprinkled it.
Mu Jinchen was dissatisfied: "Uncle, I don't know anything..."
Xuanyuanji was very satisfied.
"How could this happen?" He Feng was shocked, "Who came to take Prince Rui away?"
"Yeah, she's dead... Fortunately, she's dead! She's so vicious, and she still creates such a terrible place in my house. It scares me to death." Mu Jinchen patted his chest, looking like a victim.
.
"Your Highness, King Chen, the things here are all poisons from the border area of southern Xinjiang! This bottle of venom is the venom that was poured on the snow grass used by the prince." Eunuch Hu also came with people from Dali Temple and made a quick judgment.
Oops, the poison chamber was discovered!
The pile of debris next to the broken copper basin was moved away one meter, revealing a big hole on the floor!
The poisonous insects made an emergency retreat and crawled into the iron box in the corner.
He Qinru froze on the spot, feeling flustered.
"Uncle, my nephew doesn't understand..." Mu Jinchen kept his head down and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
"No." Xuanyuan Ji threw Mu Jinchen away, "I am handling the case."
And she just didn't notice the danger at all!
"Yes or no, you will know after a search." Xuanyuan's extremely cold face was covered with frost and snow, and with a wave of his knuckled hand, the imperial guards went straight to the poison chamber.
Xuanyuan Ji's eyes were like an eagle. He walked halfway through the storage room when he discovered the mechanism - a broken copper basin.
He Qinru watched helplessly as Mu Jinchen was taken away, avoided everyone and climbed over the wall, and went straight to He's Mansion.
He had only been ill for one night, so Gu Qingluo gathered witnesses and physical evidence in the shortest possible time. Punishing Mu Jinchen with national laws could not only remove the thorn in his side, but also not harm the Gu family at all.
"Prince Rui's conspiracy was exposed and the poison chamber was discovered. Is there any way to save my father?" He Qinru asked.
Mu Jinchen felt chills all over his body, rubbed his hands and murmured: "Why is there a hole in the ground? Who dug it secretly in my palace?"
"Prince Chen?!" He Feng's expression suddenly changed, and a sense of fear arose spontaneously, "The emperor actually sent Prince Chen to come forward, Prince Rui may be hopeless..."
"Dad, what should we do now?" He Qinru asked.
He Feng stroked his beard and thought for a while, then said, "You are not a registered member of Prince Rui's Mansion. Please disappear for a while. As for those things, Dad will try to get them back as much as possible."
"yes."
