The first person to react was Jiang Xu.
His face was extremely ugly and he shouted loudly: "Physician, hurry up and ask for the physician."
At this time, he could hardly care about the panic-looking prince, let alone the numerous guests.
The prince was shocked on the spot, and there were still countless blood spots on his face.
It was not until the princess on the side handed over the veil that he woke up.
He turned back and glanced at the princess, but he turned around and supported the pale concubine Jiang Lan: "Lan'er, don't be afraid" Jiang Lan's face was pale as never before.
She pushed the prince away and walked forward quickly, trembling and kneeling down in front of the Duke's wife.
Li Weiyang looked at this scene, but her expression became very strange.
It seemed to be ridicule, but also seemed to be emotional.
From the outside, she felt that she was frightened, so she didn't know how to react.
What happened in the hall was like a play, and she stood there, watching the play.
From beginning to end, she felt an unusually strange calm.
Jiang Xu sent people everywhere to search for Jiang Tian, but found nothing.
Jiang Tian seemed to have disappeared from the world and never appeared at his grandmother's birthday party.
As a last resort, he hurriedly summoned the imperial doctor.
Everyone in the hall looked at each other and involuntarily gathered around him.
The heavy feeling of oppression came down heavily, making Li Weiyang feel that the air here had a sense of oppression, which was disgusting.
She Involuntarily, he took a step back.
"Are you okay?"
A voice suddenly came.
Li Weiyang turned around, but Li Minde had already crossed the crowd and walked to her side, with a look of concern on his face.
Li Weiyang shook his head and looked at the crowd again.
The direct descendants of the Jiang family were surrounded by the Grand Master's chair over there, making it impossible for outsiders to get close.
Li Changle also rushed over in a panic, looking extremely confused.
Through the crowds, the words of Imperial Doctor Liu came over: "My condolences to Master Jiang, the old lady has run out of energy."
Jiang Xu's furious face appeared in his sight, and Jiang Hai shouted loudly: "Mr.
Liu, you don't want to Nonsense, my grandmother was fine just now."
When Dr.
Liu heard this, his face was also very ugly.
For a doctor, there is nothing more humiliating than questioning his medical skills.
His hands in his sleeves were shaking with anger, and he said loudly: "Master, no.
If I'm angry, I'm out of breath.
Can I still tell lies?
If you don't believe me, just take a look for yourself, even my pulse is gone."
When Jiang Xu heard that his mother died suddenly and suddenly, he felt his breath was stuck in his chest and could not speak at all.
Others were even more stunned.
They never expected that it was obviously a good day for his sixtieth birthday, but he had just watched The old lady was full of energy and strong, but why did she die in a short time?
Jiang Lan suddenly said sadly: "Grandma, grandma, what happened to you?
You were fine just now, why did you die suddenly?"
The prince saw his beloved concubine's face full of sorrow and grief, and he quickly said anxiously: "Mr.
Liu, what disease is the Duke's wife suffering from?
Why did she suddenly vomit blood?
She went there immediately."
He had just wiped off the blood stains on his face. , but his complexion did not improve at all.
Jiang Hai also quickly said: "Mr.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Liu, my grandmother suffered from cold a few days ago and was very ill for a time.
Is it because of this?"
Doctor Liu shook his head and said: "No, this is not like an ordinary external cold-evil syndrome."
Mrs.
Li watched from a distance and felt that something was getting more and more wrong.
Her heart beat fiercely and an ominous omen arose.
As if to confirm her words, the next sentence from Imperial Physician Liu was: "In fact, the Duke's wife was poisoned."
When Jiang Xu heard this, his expression immediately changed: "Poisoned" Doctor Liu nodded, took out the silver needle, and tested it in the blood spurted by the Duke's wife.
Then he raised the silver needle for everyone to see.
His two lips opened slightly, but cold words stood out between the closed teeth: Said: "The Duke's wife did die of poisoning."
Everyone saw that the tip of the silver needle was indeed faintly black.
Jiang Xu couldn't help but closed his eyes, his palms were sweating like rain for a while, and two words kept swirling in his mind, that is, poisoning is actually poisoning.
Who has the courage to poison a birthday banquet?
Everyone looked at each other.
The Duke's wife was a first-class wife and the first wife of Duke Jiang.
The Queen Mother personally issued an order for everyone to celebrate her sixtieth birthday.
However, at the birthday banquet, the originally very healthy Lady suddenly died suddenly.
The cause of death was Poisoned.
This incident is like a huge wave rising from the sky.
Once verified, the implications will be wide.
And they are standing here at this moment, witnessing this great change taking place, and it is destined that they will never be able to stay out of it.
Suddenly, the storm was about to come and the wind filled the building.
Jiang Lan burst into tears and said: "Your Highness, please make the decision for my grandmother."
Sure enough, when the prince heard this, he was furious and said: "This is really unreasonable.
Whoever dared to poison the Duke's wife must be thoroughly investigated and the murderer found out."
At this order, everyone was in an uproar.
Jing Zhaoyin and the Minister of Punishment both came out.
Yao Changqing said: "Your Highness, please report this matter to Your Majesty as soon as possible and seal off the entire Jiang family to prevent the murderer from escaping."
Mrs.
Jiang has a dedicated person in charge of her diet, and there will never be any poisoning caused by accidental ingestion.
Everyone feels that this must be murder, and it is a murder that is provoking the Queen Mother and His Majesty.
Don't you want to do it in a big way?
Is Mrs.
Chiang celebrating her birthday?
Looking at the current results, it can be imagined that the emperor will be extremely angry.
The prince nodded and said: "Come, please go to the palace immediately to report to the emperor and seal off the entire Jiang family.
Mr.
Zhang and Mr.
Yao, please give me a good interrogation and make sure to get to the bottom of this matter."
Zhang Hui, the Minister of Punishment, looked solemn.
He looked at Yao Changqing and said at the same time: "Yes."
On the other side, Li Minde, who had been watching everything happen silently, said softly: "I think there will be a lot of trouble here for a while."
Li Weiyang glanced at everyone in the Jiang family indifferently, but her eyes fell on Li Changle, who was crying, and said slowly: "Of course, they haven't made a big fuss yet, why would they stop here?
Let's be prepared."
But it looked like he had expected it.

Li Minde smiled slightly and said nothing.
Jiang Xu ordered people to immediately place the Duke's wife in a side hall, and ordered the family to prepare mourning clothes and other matters.
He also asked all the guests to sit and wait in the hall, and then arranged for Jing Zhaoyin's people to start inspecting the entire hall, reception room, and even In the bedroom of Mrs.
Guogong, we need to find out where the person was poisoned and who poisoned her.
The crown prince's concubine Jiang Lan's eyes were red, as if she was holding back her grief, and she was talking to Jiang Xu and others, while Li Changle was covering his face with his sleeves and crying, showing an extremely sad look, and everyone else looked sad.
Qi Yan's expression.
The fifth prince Tuoba Rui glanced at the very sad Li Changle and seemed to want to go up to comfort him.
However, thinking of the last time he saw Li Changle's bald head with bugs crawling on it, he couldn't help but feel extremely disgusted and did it for himself.
Several psychological counseling sessions No matter what, he couldn't let his legs go to the big beauty.
As a last resort, he turned away his eyes and said to the third prince Tuoba Zhen, who had been silent since just now: "Third brother, when can we leave?"
You can’t doubt us here.”
Tuoba Zhen withdrew his gaze from everyone in the Jiang family, and said in deep thought: "Didn't you listen to the prince?
You must find the murderer before you can leave here."
In other words, if the murderer is not found, everyone must Stay here, even if you are a prince.
The fifth prince Tuoba Rui snorted coldly and said: "He is not fascinated by that Jiang Lan.
Mrs.
Jiang who listens to her everything cannot be poisoned by us.
Why are you holding so many people hostage?
It's simply It’s ridiculous and generous” Tuoba Zhen had no words, but his eyes turned involuntarily to Li Weiyang, who was talking to Li Minde over there.
After not seeing him for a few days, her face remained cold and cold, her expression was as low-key as ever, and her clothes were not noticeable at all, but Sitting there, she was already a strange sight.
Her eyebrows were raised and her expression was as beautiful as the top.
Her words and actions were like a sea of flowers blooming, making him look at her involuntarily.
This is not because Li Weiyang is particularly beautiful, but because he has fallen in love with this person and will pursue her unconsciously.
Finally, Tuobarui interrupted him: "I really can't sit still anymore, so I'd better go and see what Yao Changqing knows."
With that, Tuobarui stood up and walked over to Jing Zhaoyin, who looked solemn at the side.
Tuoba Yu was standing next to Yao Changqing at this moment and said to him: "We can conduct a detailed inspection to further narrow the scope.
Since the Duke's wife was poisoned, it means that the murderer has a chance to come into contact with her.
There are two people in this hall.
One-third of the people were eliminated as suspects, because they had no way to enter the inner house, and they were even less likely to poison the Duke's wife's food or the objects she came into contact with."
Yao Changqing nodded and said: "Indeed, after narrowing the scope of the inspection, we will focus on inspecting the maids close to the Duke's wife to see if we can find clues from them."
At this moment, Sandalwood exclaimed: "Miss, are you okay?"
Everyone immediately looked at Li Changle, only to see that her face was extremely pale and she was leaning on Sandalwood, as if she was about to faint.
Jiang Lan had known her since childhood and had a good relationship with her, so she hurried up.
Said: "Changle, are you okay?"
Mrs.
Jiang frowned and said quickly: "Chang Le has always been weak.
Today, the old lady who always loved her passed away suddenly.
I am afraid she cannot withstand the shock.
Why don't you help her in to rest quickly?"
Jiang Lan then told Tan Xiang: "Help your lady go to the embroidered building where I used to live."
"Don't bother me.
I'll just go to the guest room and rest for a while."
Li Changle looked weak and was about to walk out of the hall leaning on the sandalwood, but suddenly he saw Li Weiyang standing up and said with a smile: "Sister, this I’m afraid it’s not appropriate.”
Everyone looked at Li Weiyang, but they only saw a hint of embarrassment on her face.
Jiang Lan frowned and said, "Is there anything wrong with this?"
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Li Weiyang's eyes fell on Li Changle, and her tone was calm: "Grandma just left, everyone is sad, and things here have not been clarified yet, so I think it is better to ask the eldest sister to be patient for a while, at least until the truth of the case comes to light.
Besides, , you care about grandma so much, why didn’t you wait until the murderer was caught before leaving?"
Li Changle's body swayed, showing a slight look of disbelief, and said: "So what Third Sister means is that even if I feel uncomfortable, I must stay here?"
Jiang Lan's beautiful face had a trace of condensation, she turned to stare at Li Weiyang and said: "Anping County Master, you are too harsh on the eldest sister."
"Does Concubine Lan think I'm harsh?"
Li Weiyang repeated the words "too harsh".
She seemed a little surprised, but soon she said solemnly, "I just have reasonable doubts.
Before the matter comes to light, everyone There is suspicion, Princess, do you think so?"
The Crown Princess was stunned when she heard the words.
She didn't expect that Li Weiyang would ask about herself.
She looked at her in surprise.
Li Weiyang said lightly: "Although this is the Jiang family, the most noble person is the Crown Prince.
Since the Crown Princess We are here too.
We naturally respect your opinion on this matter.
What do you think, should people leave this hall alone to rest?"
The Crown Princess glanced at Jiang Lan coldly.
She could see that Li Weiyang and the Jiang family were very difficult to deal with.
Similarly, she and Jiang Lan were also very difficult to deal with.
The enemy of an enemy is a friend.
Since Jiang Lan wanted to protect Li Changle, why doesn't she protect Li Weiyang?
A woman's logic is sometimes so simple.
Just now she thought Li Weiyang was dispensable, but now she immediately felt that she had become more approachable, and she couldn't help but reveal a hint of coldness.
Said: "Concubine Lan, this is the Jiang family.
We should respect the master's wishes and not interfere casually.
Besides, the matter involves the death of the Duke's wife, which is really not a trivial matter.
Of course, I don't mean to doubt Miss Li's intention when I say this. , but the county leader is right, anyone who has a problem should not be indulged easily.
Miss Li needs to rest, and of course she can rest in this hall.
Come and give her a seat. " Li Changle didn't expect that the Crown Princess would interrupt, and his face became even more ugly.
He could only reluctantly thank the seat, and was about to walk to the chair, but he seemed to stumble inadvertently.
Sandalwood couldn't hold it up alone, and was about to fall down again.
As she fell, a hand reached out and held her steady.
Looking back, what I saw was Li Weiyang.
Li Weiyang said softly: "Sister, you have to be careful."
Li Changle hated the person in front of him, but he did not dare to explode in front of everyone.
He looked around weakly, but Li Xiaoran's face was solemn, Mrs.
Li's expression was indifferent, her uncle and cousins were discussing the funeral, and the concubine Jiang Lan She no longer dared to refute the Crown Princess's intention.
In the end, she could only stare at Li Weiyang fiercely and turned her head: "Thank you."
Her voice was very stiff, and she quietly took a step back.
Li Weiyang glanced at her expression full of hatred, smiled lightly, as if she didn't notice anything, and said: "You're welcome."
After this small episode, everyone in the hall could only sit in their own seats.
Of course, the guests who could enter the hall were all powerful people, while ordinary greeters had already been controlled outside.
But it was very painful for these people to just sit like this, so they were willing to stand up and watch the congratulatory gifts originally intended for the old lady.
Tuoba Zhen's eyes fell on a very special gift.
He stood up and walked to the lacquer screen to take a closer look.
There are four lacquer screens in total, and each one is engraved with an exquisite picture.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
The picture is inlaid with gold, silver, jade, pearls and agate, making it undoubtedly a precious antique.
He couldn't help but said: "Brother, is this your gift?"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was stunned for a moment, then walked over, took a look at this gorgeous screen, and sighed involuntarily: "Yes, Concubine Lan has been preparing this gift for me for three months.
I wanted to make the old lady happy today." , who would have thought that she would leave without even seeing the screen, wasting Lan'er's efforts. " When Jiang Lan was mentioned about her sadness, she naturally couldn't help wiping her tears again and said: "Your Highness, I grew up under the knees of my grandmother, and I am the closest to her, but please take care of me.
On the thin side, I must seek justice for my grandmother.”
The face of the second wife of the Jiang family was stiff for a moment, but she quickly lowered her eyes, as if she didn't hear anything.
Li Weiyang looked in her eyes, but she didn't feel strange.
Everyone knew that the Jiang family valued their concubines very much.
The difference is that there are many sons and concubines in the family, but there are few concubines and concubines.
This Jiang Lan is not only the only female among the grandchildren of the Jiang family, but also the only concubine in the Jiang family.
This status is very embarrassing and subtle.
The Duke’s wife actually took her to her side to raise her, and later sent her to Visiting the Prince's Mansion makes people sigh with emotion.
Now seeing the expression of the second wife of the Jiang family, Li Weiyang became more and more sure that the second wife of the Jiang family did not like this Jiang Lan, and she really didn't like it.
Of course, this was not the focus of her concern, so she quickly looked away as if she didn't notice.
At this moment, a government official walked up quickly, and everyone's eyes suddenly widened, waiting to see the conclusion of their investigation.
Yao Changqing quickly asked: "What is going on?"
The yamen servant loudly said: "Reporting to your lords, I found a strange thing in the small flower hall where the Duke's wife entertained guests.
There was a tray containing candied dates freshly offered this year, and the remaining tray was filled with hibiscus cakes. , butterfly cakes and other common snacks, as well as some melon seeds and candied fruits, they don’t look like anything special, but who knows what’s on the coffee table A dead mouse was found under the bed, and a half-gnawed candied date rolled on the ground.
Then he asked the girl in the flower hall and found out that this room was cleaned every day.
If there was a dead mouse, it would definitely be cleaned.
It was found that it was definitely not preserved to this day, so the rat must have just died, so he immediately asked his boss to dissect the dead rat, and found that " Jiang Xu stood up first and asked: "What did you find?"
After he asked, he immediately realized that it was not appropriate for him to go beyond the Minister of Justice and Yao Changqing to ask about this matter, but it was his own mother who died, so no one would agree with him.
He cared about it, and Yao Changqing nodded and said: "You continue talking."
The yamen officer continued: "After he dissected the dead rat, he found some candied jujube pulp in its belly.
So he became suspicious of these candied dates.
He turned around and checked the remaining candied jujube pulp on the ground, and finally found it.
Where does the poison come from?”
Jiang Hua, the third son of the Jiang family who has been silent since the accident, couldn't help but feel moved in his heart: "You mean the murderer put poison into the candied dates?"
The officer immediately said: "Yes, after my subordinates discovered that the candied dates were poisonous, they immediately ordered them to conduct a detailed inspection.
Finally, they found that in addition to this one, two of the other thirteen candied dates were poisonous.
This shows that the murderer committed the crime.
There was not enough time for him to poison every candied date.
Of course, this also shows that he was very close to the Duke’s wife to have such an opportunity. " Jiang Hua slowly shook his head and said: "There is no need for him to poison every candied date.
He just needs to ensure that the poisonous ones are eaten by my grandmother.
This person has such a vicious mind."
Just when they mentioned candied dates, Li Weiyang's expression had changed.
This change was so slight that no one even noticed it except Li Minde who was standing next to her.
The next moment, the originally weak eldest daughter of the Li family suddenly stood up.
Her face was as pale as the white snow on the branches.
She stumbled slightly.
Sandalwood beside her held her tightly, and she lost her voice. : "Third sister, why did you want to harm grandma?"
When this sound came out, everyone looked at Li Weiyang.
Although Li Weiyang's expression did not change significantly, the coolness in his eyes was no different from the ice and snow: "Sister, what do you mean by this?"
The Crown Princess' eyebrows twitched, but her face remained calm: "Miss Li, please don't talk nonsense."
Concubine Jiang Lan suddenly stood up and said coldly: "Prince Concubine, you haven't heard her finish yet.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
How do you know she is talking nonsense?
Keep talking."
The Crown Princess snorted indifferently and said, "Well, Miss Li, please explain clearly what it means that the Lord of Anping County harmed the Duke's wife."
Tears rolled down from Li Changle's eyes, as if she herself couldn't believe it.
She pointed at Li Weiyang and said: "You were the one who handed the fruit plate to grandma, and you also watched her eat the candied dates.
Apart from you, , it’s impossible for anyone else to touch that thing.”
Li Weiyang's expression turned cold, his eyes turned to her face, and he said coldly: "Sister, you are wrong.
Apart from me, there was also our mother who touched the fruit plate.
She handed the fruit plate to her first.
I, not to mention, the girls in this house must have touched the fruit plate.
If not, did the fruit plate fly into the house by itself?"
Li Changle said angrily: "But they have no reason to harm grandma.
Mother and grandma have always been close, and the girls around her are also loyal.
They will never do such a thing."
Tuobayu heard something wrong and immediately scolded: "Miss Li, you have no evidence, why did you say such vicious words?"
Li Changle showed a stern look, her eyes were like sharp swords, she wished she could stab two bloody holes in Li Weiyang's face, and continued to say hatefully: "I saw it with my own eyes, and everyone in the room saw it with my own eyes.
Everyone has seen with their own eyes, mother, did you see with your own eyes that my third sister handed the candied dates to the old lady?"
There was a look of surprise on Jiang Yuelan's face, and she thought carefully for a moment before replying: "This is indeed true."
Li Changle then looked at the few girls who had been serving the Duke's wife.
They looked at each other and recalled the scene carefully, but they could only nod in agreement.
"What Miss Biao said was that only the county owner held the fruit plate the longest at that time."
"Yes, the old lady took the date from her hand."
"Yes, yes, only the county master can have the opportunity to poison, not to mention that no one else can murder the old lady."
Everyone believed that Li Weiyang had poisoned her, because she was the only one with such a motive in the small flower hall at that time.
Li Changle was the granddaughter of the old lady.
Once the Duke's wife died, her backstage collapsed.
For more than half of the time, there was no need to murder his patron in order to wrongly accuse Li Weiyang.
The same is true for Jiang Yuelan.
She relied on the power of the Jiang family to marry into the Li family and quickly established herself.
What reason did she have to kill the Duke's wife?
As for the girls in the Jiang family, it was even more impossible.
But Li Weiyang was different.
She had a huge quarrel with the Jiang family in the Golden Palace over Jiang Nan's affairs, especially since everyone had heard about the Duke's wife yelling at her at that time.
Perhaps she was holding a grudge because of this.
It seems reasonable to take advantage of this birthday party to find an opportunity to kill the Duke's wife.
The only one who has the motive and the opportunity to kill the Duke's wife is Li Weiyang.
Everyone looked at Li Weiyang with suspicious eyes like sharp swords.
Even Mrs.
Li showed an unbelievable look: "Wei Yang, what on earth is going on?"
Li Weiyang looked at Li Changle coldly and said: "Sister, do you think I poisoned my grandmother?
Just because I touched the fruit plate or because I had a bad relationship with my grandmother.
Even so, I don't have to do it in front of so many people.
If I killed her in front of others, wouldn’t I be afraid that it would be exposed and hurt me later?”
Li Changle's voice was trembling, as if he was unsteady: "Third sister, I didn't expect that you are still quibbling at this time.
Maybe you just took advantage of the lively birthday banquet to take advantage of the crowds and bustle.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Escaped punishment, if not for the abnormality found in the dead rat just now , it is hard for anyone to think that everything eaten by the poisonous candied dates grandma has been strictly inspected before being put on the table, so there must be no problems.
But this can only last until you enter the flower hall, waiting for you.
If you put poison in it, everything will be different.”
Li Weiyang looked at Li Changle's vicious eyes and suddenly sneered and said: "Sister, your imagination is too rich.
Since you said I poisoned you, what method did I use to poison me?
I must have poison on my body.
Where is the poison in my skirt?"
Li Changle stared at her with a cold face and said word by word: "Third sister, since you swore that you did not poison, do you dare to have someone check it?"
Li Minde looked at Li Changle's determined look and couldn't help but sneered, but he just lowered his head and didn't speak.
This show was so exciting.
Li Changle could actually come up with such a trick to put the blame on Li Weiyang.
Thank you so much.
Got her stupid idea Come on, everyone will definitely think that no one in this world would risk their own life to frame someone else's fault, certainly not the Duke's wife, so the murderer must be in the flower hall, and now, the only one who has a grudge against the Duke's wife people have become targets of public criticism.
Tuobayu frowned and was the first to say: "Miss Li, you just say that there is no basis for it.
It is too arbitrary for you to search someone based on your own guess."
Li Changle didn't even look at him.
He just stared at Li Weiyang aggressively, with a trace of hatred flashing in his eyes: "Third sister, do you dare to prove your innocence?"
Li Weiyang looked at her, a hint of sarcasm gradually appeared on his face.
The sarcastic look in Li Changle's eyes made him think that the other party had been cornered by her, so he couldn't help but continue: "If you don't dare, you can only prove it."
Li Weiyang stood up slowly and said: "I have a clear conscience, so what am I afraid of?"
A strange smile appeared on Li Changle's face.
This smile made Sun Yanjun, who was watching from the side, feel a strange feeling in his heart, as if Li Changle expected that he would be able to search Li Weiyang's body.
Nothing happened, but how could this be possible?
Sun Yanjun walked to Li Weiyang, stopped her and said: "Miss Li, you are so aggressive, do you want Weiyang to be searched in public?"
Li Changle sneered and said: "Of course there is no need to search in public.
The Crown Princess is here.
As long as she is here, she can testify.
Just find a room alone and search it carefully."
Li Weiyang's dark eyes lightly scratched her face and said with a smile: "Well, since we want to search, we should search them all.
If anything slips through the net, my eldest sister is so selfless, I guess she won't mind." , she looked at Jiang Yuelan and others who had also been in the flower hall, showing an inquiring look.
Mrs.
Li said: "Indeed, this matter cannot be based on the suspicion of Changle and you alone.
It would be too unconvincing if both people and the stolen goods were not involved.
But it would be too unconvincing if only Weiyang was searched.
Fair.
Since you want to search, you should search.
"She is obviously helping Li Weiyang, and this matter is not trivial.
If ordinary people encountered it, they would have become panicked, but Li Weiyang was very calm.
Mrs.
Li couldn't help but hope that she There are indeed ways to prove your innocence.
Li Changle sneered lightly, with a hint of contempt: "Grandma, not only the third sister, but also me, the girls in the house, and even the mother, all of them can be searched.
Why don't we ask the Crown Princess to testify?"
The Crown Princess glanced at Li Weiyang, pondered for a moment, and said: "What does the Crown Prince want?"
The prince nodded and said: "This is the fairest thing.
If anyone comes, prepare an empty room immediately."

The Crown Princess stood up and said, "It would be fair if I went to see it in person.
By the way, Concubine Lan is interested in going together."
Jiang Lan had no choice but to stand up and said: "The Crown Princess invites you first."
Everyone looked at this scene with a slight chill on their faces.
If something is really found out later, it will be the murder of a first-class wife of the imperial court, which is a natural death penalty.
Although Li Weiyang swore that he was innocent, if evidence is found on her body Mrs.
Li's expression was the most worried.
She vaguely felt that today's events were very strange.
It seemed that someone was deliberately targeting Li Weiyang, but she really didn't understand that the life of the Duke's wife was good for everyone.
Whether it was Li Changle or the Jiang family, it was impossible to frame Li Weiyang by murdering her.
How is this different from killing a goose to retrieve the eggs?
No one here would do such a stupid thing.
Li Changle was the first to be searched.
The Crown Princess ordered people to carefully check her clothes, sachet, and even the hair accessories on her head, but nothing was found.
Next was Jiang Yuelan.
Like the other girls, they also found nothing.
The last one was Li Weiyang.
Because she was suspected by everyone, she was examined for the longest time.
When she came out, it was already half an hour later.
When everyone saw the Crown Princess leading her out, they couldn't help but ask: "Did you find anything?"
Li Changle looked at the Crown Princess with a sneer.
She would definitely find out.
She was confident about it.
However, under the attention of everyone, the Crown Princess shook her head and said lightly: "No, nothing."
Li Changle's smile seemed to be frozen by frost for a moment.
There was still a smile between his brows, but there was a scowl on his lips.
Her smile and anger were originally very beautiful, but now she turned into a strange and charming face, which made people feel more and more chilled.
She immediately looked at the maid named Hanxiang, who just led Li Weiyang there I changed my skirt that was wet with tea, but my fragrant face was the same at this moment.
Looking shocked and confused, something must have gone wrong somewhere.
How come nothing was found in the search?
Li Changle, who had clearly asked the girl to sew the medicine into the seam of the skirt, stopped thinking about it and stepped forward first. : "Even if nothing is found in the search, it still cannot prove Third Sister's innocence."
Li Xiaoran angrily scolded: "Changle, what are you talking about?"
He didn't want to help Li Weiyang, but at this time, Li Weiyang was related to the Li family's reputation.
Li Changle looked at Li Xiaoran sadly and said: "Father, do you want me to watch my grandmother who has loved me since childhood die in vain?"
Li Xiaoran said coldly: "Chang Le, how do you want Jing Zhaoyin to take your sister back to the Yamen?"
Li Changle bit her white teeth lightly and said as if unintentionally: "Until the facts are clearly understood, I can only wrong Third Sister."
Mrs.
Li was the first to object: "This is not possible.
There is no reason for our young ladies to enter the Yamen."
Jiang Xu said with a face as cold as frost: "Mrs.
Li, this matter is related to my mother's life.
If you are unwilling to give an explanation, we cannot let it go."
The prince also had a troubled expression on his face: "Looks like I'm really going to trouble the Lord of Anping County to follow Mr.
Yao back to the Yamen."
Is Jingzhao Yin Yamen a place where ordinary people can go?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Li Weiyang is a lady and the head of Anping County.
If she enters the Yamen, even if she can come out safely, she will become the laughing stock of the entire Kyoto.
Tuobayu frowned and was about to speak for Li Weiyang, but he heard Li Weiyang speak first.
Li Weiyang faced layers of threats, but slowly said: "Sister, do you really want to find out the cause of grandma's death?"
Li Changle looked cold and said sternly: "This is natural.
I will never let the murderer go unpunished."
Li Weiyang showed an expression that was half-smiling, and Li Changle couldn't help but get angry.
Li Minde's eyes on the side changed again and again, and finally sank into a bottomless abyss.
He slowly said with a serious face: "Since the eldest sister insists on this, I have a good idea."
Everyone looked at Mr.
Li San, who was so handsome that people dared not look directly at him.
His eyes were colder than the snow in the cold winter: "As long as the autopsy is performed, more clues can be found, and we will not just stick to it."
The so-called candied dates can help us better understand when the Duke's wife was poisoned and who poisoned her."
Li Changle's face turned pale, and he felt a chill rising from the clammy palms, and said loudly: "No" This sound attracted the attention of Jiang Hua, the third son of Jiang.
His eyes looked at the cousin carefully, seeming to be deep in thought.
Before anyone else could speak, Li Changle had already realized her gaffe, and she quickly said: "Grandma has passed away, so she should be buried properly.
It is so disrespectful to touch her body."
Yao Changqing was also shaking his head.
Of course he knew that an autopsy should be performed, but judging from this dynasty's practice, the autopsy was only used to examine physical evidence.
At the same time, only the body's surface was examined, not an autopsy.
He also encountered a case in the past.
After a man named Zhou Cheng went to a friend's house to drink, he returned home with severe pain in his abdomen and couldn't help vomiting.
He actually spit out more than a dozen poisonous insects from his mouth.
Seeing that he had vomited so many bugs, he was so frightened that he had a nervous breakdown and died.
Before he was dying, he told his wife Zhang that after he died, he would cut open his stomach to see what kind of bugs were causing trouble.
Find evidence to sue the friend who harmed him behind his back.
Zhang complied with her husband's last wish and personally dissected and examined her husband's body after his death.
After the neighbors found out about this incident, they went to Yao Changqing to report her for destroying her husband's body.
Although the matter was excusable, Yao Changqing still arrested Zhang.
In addition, Zhou Cheng's son Zhou Jin was also arrested because he did not stop his mother from destroying his father's body.
The law of Dali only stipulates: Anyone who harms a dead body shall be sentenced to four years of hard labor; a wife who harms her husband shall be sentenced to five years of hard labor; a son who is unfilial to his parents shall be sentenced to death.
None of these three laws can be directly applied to this case.
On this matter, Yao Changqing had a disagreement with Mr.
Shi, who was the Minister of Justice at the time.
He believed that Zhang was reluctantly complying with her husband's last words, and Zhou Jin, as his son, had no reason to stop him. .
Considering that the motive for this incident was not to cruelly harm the husband's body, he should be treated leniently.
However, Master Shi felt that Zhou Jin was guilty of unfilial piety, and Zhang should be treated as a case of a wife harming her husband.
The outcome of their confrontation was left to the emperor to judge.
The emperor did not think too much and quickly gave instructions to judge the case in accordance with the opinions of the Minister of Punishment: both of them were guilty of death.
Now, to encounter such a thing again, he subconsciously After looking at Zhang Hui, who is now the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, he was the proud disciple of Mr.
Shi.
Sure enough, the next moment Zhang Hui became furious and said: "Anping County Master, don't you know that an autopsy is a humiliation to the deceased?
Or do you not know that my mentor once judged such a case?
Don't you know His Majesty's decree at that time?
Look, You are young and ignorant, I will not care about you, so stop talking nonsense."

This case was very bizarre and was very sensational at first.
Even Huangkou children knew about it.
Li Weiyang smiled slightly and said: "I dare to ask your Majesty, why did your Majesty convict the Zhang family in the first place?"
Zhang Hui immediately said: "Of course it's because she opened the coffin and performed an autopsy."
Li Weiyang smiled and said: "No, it's because she dissected the corpse privately.
The so-called damage to her husband's corpse is her crime.
If she performed the dissection in public through the government's cooperation, it would not be a crime, but to redress her husband's grievance, not to mention this person.
Although the imperial code does not say that the deceased must have an autopsy, it does not say that an autopsy must not be done.
Your Majesty's imperial edict only says that a woman cannot easily damage her husband's body in private.
It does not say that a woman cannot ask the government to conduct an autopsy, right?"
Zhang Hui was stunned for a moment, then became speechless when he thought about it carefully.
He coughed twice and said, "Even so, the consent of the family of the deceased is required before Sir Jiang can do it.
Do you agree?"
Jiang Xu's face was ashen and he said: "Killing the corpse and abandoning the bones is of course not allowed in ancient times."
Not to mention dissecting the body, even exposing the body of a loved one to the public for inspection would be regarded as a great shame and humiliation.
The desecration of the remains of loved ones.
Li Weiyang looked at them coldly and said: "Don't you want to find out the cause of grandma's death?
Don't you want to restore her innocence?
What does it mean to obstruct her in every possible way now?
I know, although my Dali code does not stipulate that an autopsy must be done.
Buried, but you are willing to let my grandmother’s murderer go free rather than conduct an autopsy.
What’s the point?
Are you willing to protect the murderer?”
Jiang Hai said angrily: "Li Weiyang, you have gone too far.
My grandmother died unexpectedly during her lifetime.
It was already unfortunate.
You claimed that you were redressing my grievances with my grandmother, but you clearly wanted to harm her.
You will have her bones and muscles steamed, and then be tortured.
Your heart It is indeed extremely vicious, how can you bear it?"
Li Changle burst into tears and said, "Yes, Third Sister, why are you so cruel?"
