The emperor finally spoke,

"Manager Li, please send someone to check everyone's meals now."

All the royal ministers in the Xuanhong Palace put down their meals tremblingly and waited in their seats as if they were dejected.

While Manager Li and others were investigating, the emperor left the dragon throne and stood up with a loud voice.

"Everyone here knows what a solemn day today is. During the annual sacrificial ceremony, even Gu and the Queen Mother stay vegetarian for three days and three nights to comfort the ancestors. But today, someone actually disrespects the ancestors. It is simply treason!"

Everyone was trembling with anger and looked at each other, wondering who was going to press the gun at the memorial ceremony.

As the attendants checked one by one, they finally discovered that the water glass in Prince Luo was actually filled with wine.

Manager Li quickly brought Prince Luo's drink to His Majesty. The emperor looked at Prince Luo with an angry look.

Prince Luo was in a state of shock. He had no idea what was happening. He saw all the courtiers looking at him in fear.

"Luo Hongjing, do you know your guilt?"

Prince Luo was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I really don't!"

"You dare to be so presumptuous, you dare to drink alcohol openly during the sacrificial ceremony, which is a crime of great disrespect!"

Prince Luo was caught in action, and he couldn't argue at this moment! And I could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, and I couldn't find any evidence to defend myself for a while.

I can only cry out for injustice.

"Your Majesty, I was wrongly accused, and someone framed me. Your Majesty is wise and must investigate this matter."

Originally, the emperor was already very tolerant and protective of his only nephew. But on such a grand occasion as the sacrificial ceremony, this unlucky nephew did such a ridiculous thing.

In order to face up to state-owned and national regulations, every family has its own laws. He can no longer cover up this time. Punished in public in front of the courtiers and clans.

"Luo Hongjing was guilty of defying the king's family rules and disrespecting his ancestors. He had his title confiscated and a hundred acres of fertile land was confiscated. He was not allowed to enter the palace!"

The guards obeyed the order and immediately stepped forward to drag Prince Luo out of the hall.

Prince Luo's desperate cry resounded in the palace.

"Your Majesty, I have been framed! Your Majesty, you must make the decision for me!"

The ministers in the palace all looked at each other, some were secretly proud, and some were frightened.

And Prince Luo's dismountation must have given the prince faction a severe lesson. The prince in the palace still stood in the hall with an unchanging expression. It was as if Prince Luo had nothing to do with him, he was cold and quiet.

After Prince Luo was dragged away, the sacrificial ceremony continued. Wei Yunchen saw everything that had just happened, and he had an idea in his mind. What was the truth of the matter? He must ask clearly after the sacrifice ceremony.

After the ceremony, Wei Yunchen intercepted Concubine Jin on their way back to the palace.

"Sister, I need to ask Maid Yan to lend me a moment to speak."

Concubine Jin glanced at Wei Yunchen and then at Yan Muyi, thinking that the young couple were having trouble, so they found fault with her in public.

In order to create opportunities for her younger brother, my sister nodded and agreed.

Wei Yunchen pulled Yan Muyi and walked to a relatively remote alley.

"Let me go, Mr. Wei!"

Yan Muyi said coldly. Wei Yunchen had no intention of letting go and kept dragging her wrist towards the alley.

Finally, Wei Yunchen stopped. Yan Mu took the opportunity to throw away his grabbed hand. Touching the red finger prints.

Wei Yunchen lost consciousness after seeing Yan Muyi's finger prints. He shouldn't have acted just because he was angry. At this time, he felt guilty.

"Master Wei, what do you have to do with me? If there is nothing important, I will leave first!"

After saying that, Yan Muyi wanted to turn around and leave.

"Did you switch Prince Luo's drinks?"

Yan Mu must have been stunned. She didn't expect that Wei Yunchen would guess that she was responsible for this so quickly.

Seeing that Yan Muyi had no intention of leaving, he continued.

"Are you checking about Yan Yue'er?"

Now every word out of Wei Yunchen's mouth hits the nail on the head.

Yan Muyi remained silent. She didn't want to lie to Wei Yunchen, but she didn't deny the fact either. And Wei Yunchen can name Yan Yuer. That proves that he knew Yan Yue'er before this.

Now Yan Mu and Wei Yunchen are pressing each other step by step. Walked up to him and asked.

"Do you know about Yan Yue'er's matter? Or are you also the one in charge?"

The cold question made Wei Yunchen instantly feel that Yan Muyi was not someone he knew, and he looked down upon him with such a chill.

Wei Yunchen retorted.

"I don't know the cause and details of the matter. But Yan Yue'er's death spread widely in the palace, and the impact was not good. In the end, it was ignored. What does it mean? It means that everyone involved in this matter is your fault. Not worth it."

Wei Yunchen held Yan Muyi's shoulders with both hands and persuaded her righteously.

"Stop checking up on Yan Yue'er. She is your sister, and she must want you to live well in this world. I also want you to be well, and don't put yourself in danger!"

Yan Mu looked at the sincere Wei Yunchen and had been with him for more than a year. She knew what he was like and would definitely not do anything shameful.

"I will not give up investigating this matter thoroughly. Even if I do nothing, there will still be people who want to kill me, such as Lord Luo! I escaped by chance this time, but what about next time?"

Wei Yunchen listened and made sense. He knew that he couldn't stop Yan Muyi, so he could only choose to protect her with all his strength.

They eventually broke up. Yan Muyi is more determined to investigate the matter thoroughly, but Wei Yunchen doesn't want her to get deeper into it.

The next day, Yan Muyi judged based on the information given to him by He Ze and Aunt Zhang. Yan Yue'er should have committed suicide because her innocence was stained. Then we have to find out who defiled Yan Yue'er that day.

She got a rough idea of ​​the time based on the information, and asked Linglong what major events were happening in the palace at that time that year.

Linglong thought for a moment and remembered!

"Back then, foreign censors all came to pay homage to His Majesty. A state banquet was held for seven days. A palace banquet was held to entertain foreign censors for a hundred days, and a family banquet was held in the palace in the evening."

Linglong wondered why Yan Muyi asked about what happened a few years ago, when she probably hadn't entered the palace yet. Before Linglong had a chance to ask Yan Muyi, Yan Muyi walked away first.

He turned around and replied.

"Thank you Linglong, I'm in a hurry now, so I'll take the first step!"

Linglong could only stand there and grumbled.

"This Mu Yi is so arrogant and mysterious every day, I don't even know what she wants to do!"
