Ziyan Pavilion is still under lockdown. Except for Shangguan Yue and Zi Ling, anyone who enters or exits will be questioned.
When Xie Yao arrived at Ziyan Pavilion, he entered the courtyard directly.
The guard guard was about to stop him, but Chu Han stopped him with a look.
Shangguan Yue was sitting in the courtyard. Seeing Xie Yao appear, she pretended to be surprised for a moment, and then said with a smile: "The princess is back? It seems that the suspicion must have been cleared, so I said the princess will not hurt Princess Rui."
of."
Chu Han is here, so she can't anger Xie Yao. If Xie Yao gets angry and tells her about her false pregnancy, everything will be over!
Xie Yao glanced at Shangguan Yue coldly and said in a cold voice, "Shangguan's side concubine is very courageous."
Shangguan Yue's heart skipped a beat. What did Xie Yao mean? Why did she say she was brave? Did she already know that she was the one who assassinated Chu Rui?
impossible!
Her plan was not to say flawless, but only one night had passed since Xie Yao was captured and brought to the palace, so it was impossible to find anything.
"What does the princess mean by this?" she asked doubtfully.
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Chu Han walking into the courtyard and looking at her with a look that she couldn't explain. Her heart sank again, "Why is the prince looking at me like this?"
"The reason why I said that before was because those guards said that the evidence was irrefutable and there was no room for turning around. I didn't really want the princess to be imprisoned."
Xie Yao glanced around and looked at Chu Han, "Your Majesty, where is the blood coat?"
Chu Han made a gesture, and someone immediately brought up the bloody clothes.
Xie Yao picked up the blood-stained clothes, without any hesitation that there were a lot of blood stains on them, and looked at them carefully as if she was choosing clothes for herself.
After reading it, she stretched out her hand and put the bloody clothes on directly!
Because it was made according to her size, it fit perfectly.
"Princess, what are you doing in your bloody clothes? Take it off quickly!" Shangguan Yue pretended to be concerned, "You have just been cleared of suspicion. If someone with ulterior motives makes a fuss about this matter again, you will be the one who suffers."
Chu Han saw it and narrowed his eyes.
Xie Yao looked at the effect of wearing the blood-stained clothes, then took them off and handed them to Shangguan Yue, "You can try it on too."
Shangguan Yue subconsciously took a step back, her face looked a little ugly, and she waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, I won't wear it."
Realizing that her reaction was a bit extreme, she quickly explained, "I am pregnant and cannot wear these misunderstood clothes."
Xie Yao raised her eyebrows coldly and glanced at Shangguan Yue without forcing herself.
Shangguan Yue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Xie Yao really didn't know anything.
"What happened to Shangguan's concubine's hand? Is it injured?" Xie Yao's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and she noticed the wound in Shangguan Yue's palm at a glance.
Shangguan Yue smiled forcefully, glanced at the palm of his hand pretending not to care, and then put it behind his back, "I've been a little restless lately and I accidentally scratched it. It's okay."
Xie Yao's lips curled up slightly, "Why does it look like a stab wound to me? Since you are uneasy, don't touch those sharp objects."
"There is no more swords in Ziyan Pavilion." Chu Han suddenly spoke from the side with a deep look.
"This, maybe it's some other sharp thing, I don't know for sure. Because I didn't notice it at the time, I only discovered it later." Shangguan Yue explained forcefully.
Xie Yao did not press the question, but glanced at Shangguan Yue's hand again, and then looked away.
If it was Shangguan Yue who stabbed Chu Rui, then the murder weapon is most likely in Ziyan Pavilion!
Chu Han said he didn't find it, maybe because the search wasn't thorough enough!
Shangguan Yue asked Chu Rui to accompany her back home on a temporary basis, so she was unable to prepare thoroughly, let alone place the murder weapon properly. In a hurry, she could only hide the murder weapon nearby. Coupled with the fresh wound on Shangguan Yue's palm, she
It is certain that Shangguan Yue touched the murder weapon not long ago!
Among all the physical evidence, the murder weapon is the most important and must be found!
Xie Yao's eyes deepened, and she suddenly walked to the root of the courtyard wall. She walked slowly along the courtyard wall, and her peripheral vision fell on Shangguan Yue's face for an instant.
Seeing this, Shangguan Yue didn't know what Xie Yao was going to do, and wondered, "What is the princess doing? You must be careful. This place has just been searched several times by the guards. There may be some things that are unstable and may fall down."
.”
Xie Yao didn't answer, and just walked along the wall.
When she walked near a dry well, she suddenly saw that Shangguan Yue seemed a little nervous, as if she was afraid that some secret would be discovered.
Turning her eyes slightly, she continued to move forward. Until she had walked around in a circle and didn't see Shangguan Yue appear nervous again, she had a plan in mind.
"Your Majesty, have you searched that well?" She pointed back at the dry well while secretly staring at Shangguan Yue from the corner of her eye.
As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that Shangguan Yue's behavior was even worse.
Chu Han's eyes swept across the dry well, and then looked at Wu Feng.
Wu Feng immediately stepped forward and said, "Go back to your lord and princess, I have already ordered someone to check that well, more than once."
Xie Yao nodded slightly, then looked at Shangguan Yue, and suddenly became sharp, as if he suddenly turned into a judge from hell, and asked in a cold voice, "Shangguanyue, why did you murder Princess Rui?"
Shangguan Yue was startled by Xie Yao's sudden change. When she heard Xie Yao's question again, she was confused and a little panicked, "I don't know what the princess was going to say! I was knocked unconscious at the time and was also a victim. Why?"
Possibly plotting to kill Princess Rui!"
"Everyone knows that I have a good relationship with Princess Rui, so I won't harm her."
Xie Yao's lips curled up coldly, with a look that could see through everything. She turned back and took a dagger from the guard, and suddenly threw it at Shangguan Yue.
Shangguan Yue subconsciously caught it with her backhand, with the handle of the knife facing outward and the tip of the knife facing inward.
Xie Yao's eyes were blazing, "You used this posture and movement to stab Princess Rui in the back."
Shangguan Yue became more and more panicked, threw the dagger directly, and pretended to be calm to defend herself, "Princess, do you want to use a gesture to convict me? If the princess has something unspeakable, tell her, and I may be able to help think of a solution, but please
Princess, don’t slander me like this!”
Xie Yao sneered and turned back to point to the dry well, "If nothing else, the murder weapon you used to stab Princess Rui is in that well. Why don't we fish it out and take a look?"
The panic in Shangguan Yue's eyes can no longer be concealed. "Even if the murder weapon is really in that dry well, it was thrown in by the murderer. It has nothing to do with me!"
She didn't understand how Xie Yao knew so much! Why did it seem like Xie Yao knew everything she did?
She must not be led by Xie Yao!
There was a coldness on Xie Yao's lips, "Whether it has anything to do with you, we'll find out when we fish it out."
