Shen Zhijiang's face turned purple with anger, and he roared angrily: "You are talking nonsense! Besides you, who else in the Shen family is so cruel that he used witchcraft to murder the old marquis! Only you! You are such a heartless beast——"
The prince's face was cold and he glanced displeasedly: "Master Shen, I am asking questions now, why are you interrupting?!"
Shen Zhijiang said angrily and fearfully: "Your Highness, I..." Everything I said is true!
"Stop his mouth!" Emperor Zhaoming said coldly: "Prince, keep asking."
The imperial guards who were escorting Shen Zhijiang immediately took action and firmly covered Shen Zhijiang's mouth.
Shen Zhijiang's eyes widened in anger, he groaned twice and had to quiet down.
Xiao Lingyue continued: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, I can swear on my life that when I lived in Jade Tower, there was never such an unclean thing in the room, unless someone took advantage of my absence.
Hidden secretly."
The prince narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "What evidence do you have?"
Xiao Lingyue said: "The evidence is the paper attached to the witchcraft puppet."
Paper?
The prince was stunned.
Everyone in the hall looked at it subconsciously.
The front and back of the witchcraft doll are covered with thin yellow paper, written with cinnabar, and pierced by dense silver needles.
It looks extremely weird and ominous.
"According to Mr. Du, what is written on the yellow paper is Mr. Shen's birthday. This is the biggest flaw."
Xiao Lingyue said in a deep voice: "I didn't grow up in the Shen family. Lord Shen is my grandfather. I don't know his birthday at all!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. If you say that...
This is indeed a flaw.
Things like birthdays and horoscopes are usually not easily revealed to others unless they are married or married.
In an ordinary family, most elders will know the horoscopes of the younger ones.
But younger people rarely know about their elders.
Most people won't ask deliberately because they have no use at all.
What's more, Xiao Lingyue didn't grow up in the Shen family, and her relationship with the Shen family wasn't good, so she had almost no chance to learn the old Marquis' horoscope.
"This... I'm afraid that's not necessarily the case, right?" Du Yanbo suddenly said.
It wasn't until Xiao Lingyue spoke that he knew she was "Shen Wan" mentioned by the Shen family.
Regarding Xiao Lingyue's explanation, Du Yanbo asked: "The steward of the Shen family told me that after you severed ties with the Shen family, you went to the ancestral hall of the Shen family and read the genealogy, right?"
Xiao Lingyue's heart sank: "I went to the ancestral hall to look for the genealogy just to cross out my name on the genealogy."
Du Yanbo asked: "So, you have indeed read the genealogy?"
Xiao Lingyue: "...Yes." She couldn't deny it.
Du Yanbo said: "The family tree contains the birth date of Mr. Shen, which means you have a chance to know it."
Xiao Lingyue frowned slightly: "But after I checked off my name, I immediately left the Shen family, and I never went to the Shen mansion again."
Cui Li suddenly said: "This brings us back to the question I just asked the county master."
"Although you said that you have always been at the inn and never left, in fact, with your ability, you can leave the inn quietly in the dead of night, sneak into Shen's house, do some things, and then return to the inn without alerting anyone.
!”
Xiao Lingyue: "..."
Mr. Wen Ge and other important ministers thought about it carefully and agreed: "Yes, Mr. Cui is right!"
"If you have the skills of Anping County Lord, it will not be difficult to do this."
"Moreover, the county head has just admitted that she can do it." This chapter has been completed!
