Transformed into a vicious concubine? Being led by the eldest sister is annoying
Chapter 222: The murderer is the second prince?
The jailer did not wait for King Chen to ask, and took the initiative to say: "I found that there is something wrong with the food in the Queen's cell."
Xie Mochen's heart moved, and he said, "Take me to have a look."
The jailer took Xie Mochen to the kitchen of the queen's cell.
Pointing at the food on the table, he said, "Your Majesty, look, this food is poisonous."
Xie Mochen looked at the food carefully and found a white powder in it.
He dipped a little powder on his finger, put it under his nose and smelled it, and his face suddenly became gloomy.
"This is poison." Xie Mochen said.
The jailer said, "Your Highness, when I discovered that there was something wrong with the food in the Queen's cell, I immediately had it taken away for testing, and it turned out that the food was poisonous."
Xie Mochen's eyes were full of praise, "Well done. Go check immediately to see who delivered the food."
The jailer said, "Yes, I will check it right away."
After the jailer left, Xie Mochen fell into deep thought.
He knew that this matter must be related to the queen's death.
He must find out the truth as soon as possible, otherwise, this matter will become more complicated.
At this moment, Mo Er came over and said, "Your Majesty, I found a suspicious person."
Xie Mochen looked up at Mo Er and asked, "What did you find?"
Mo Si said respectfully: "I found a woman wandering around the Queen's cell, her behavior was very suspicious."
Xie Mochen's heart moved and he walked straight out of the cell.
Mo Er brought Xie Mochen to the vicinity of the Queen's cell, pointed at a woman and said, "Your Majesty, that's her."
Xie Mochen looked at the woman carefully and found that she was wearing the clothes of a palace maid, her face was pale and her eyes were flustered.
When the woman saw King Chen, she was so frightened that she trembled all over and said, "My lord, spare my life!"
Xie Mochen frowned. He hadn’t asked anything yet, but this palace maid was so scared?
The woman hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I am the Queen's personal maid."
Xie Mochen hummed, his voice was very cold, "You are the Queen's personal maid? How did you get into the cell?"
You have to know that when the queen was thrown into prison, there were no palace maids around her.
And now he is still in prison, and this palace maid can still come in. It has to be said that she has some skills.
The maid trembled, knelt down in front of King Chen and cried out, "Your Majesty, the Queen died unjustly!"
Xie Mochen stared at the palace maid with his deep eyes.
The female palace maid shuddered and continued, "Your Majesty, the Queen was murdered by someone."
Sure enough, this palace maid knew some inside information.
In other words, she happened to see the queen being murdered.
Xie Mochen asked in a deep voice: "Who killed the queen?"
The maid started to cry: "The Queen's death is related to the Second Prince."
Xie Mochen was shocked. Second brother?
The second prince is brave and resourceful, but he has always been very low-key.
It's not impossible.
Killing the queen made the third brother hate him even more.
It can also allow Concubine Xiao to take the throne.
It really is a three-in-one skill!
The maid continued, "Your Highness, I dare not speak nonsense. I just heard from the Queen that the Second Prince wanted to get rid of you and asked the Queen for cooperation, but was rejected by the Queen."
Xie Mochen's face darkened visibly.
His eyes were narrowed and his whole body was filled with hostility.
"You know you can't talk nonsense without evidence, especially since that person is the Second Prince."
Although he believed what the palace maid said, he had no evidence so how could he explain to his father?
The maid kowtowed, "Your Highness, I have no evidence. But I know that the Queen has been asking people to investigate the last time she and the Emperor were poisoned. She must have discovered something, which is why she was killed by the Second Prince."
Xie Mochen pondered for a moment and waved his hand, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly. You can go down first."
The palace maid didn't dare to stay any longer and got up and left.
Xie Mochen fell into deep thought.
He knew that this matter must be related to the second prince.
Perhaps the poisoning of my father was also planned by my second brother, and he let my third brother and the queen take the blame.
I have to say that this second brother is really smart.
The jailer returned soon.
He told King Chen that the food was delivered by the Queen's personal maid.
Xie Mochen had a sullen face and said indifferently, "Bring the person to me!"
"Yes, Your Majesty. I will bring the person here right away!" The jailer knew that his chance to turn things around had come.
Mo Er moved a chair and asked King Chen to sit down.
He retreated behind King Dust.
Not long after, the jailer came back with a very pretty palace maid.
When the palace maid saw Xie Mochen, her face suddenly turned pale.
She knelt on the ground and kowtowed for mercy.
Xie Mochen looked at her coldly, "Tell me, who instructed you to poison the food?"
The palace maid lowered her head, not daring to look at King Chen.
She said in a trembling voice: "Yes...it was the Queen who asked me to do this."
Xie Mochen sneered.
"Ben wants to hear the truth!"
The maid was shocked, but she still said stubbornly: "Your Highness, what I said is the truth. The Queen knew that she would not live long, and she did not want to be tortured anymore, so she asked me to poison the food to end her suffering."
Xie Mochen snorted, thinking that this was treating him, the great King Chen, as a fool.
He didn't believe a word the palace maid said.
The queen was framed, she couldn't have committed suicide.
Xie Mochen stood up and walked to the palace maid, his eyes narrowed, "I will give you one last chance to tell the truth."
The palace maid was shaking with fear, obviously knowing King Chen's methods.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, what I said is the truth. The Queen really asked me to poison the food."
Xie Mochen's cold eyes fell on the palace maid, as if she was a dead person.
Just then, Mo Si walked in and said, "Your Majesty, I have found some clues."
There was no need for Mo Chen to speak, Mo Si started talking.
"I have found out that this maid named Xiaoman has had contact with the Second Prince."
A cold light flashed in Xie Mochen's eyes.
One is the queen's personal maid, and the other is the second prince.
It's easy to tell that there's something going on between these two people.
Xie Mochen waved his hand and said, "Take him away for interrogation."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Mo Si responded and waved his hand. The guards then escorted the palace maid away.
Xie Mochen immediately took Mo Er and the guards away from the Ministry of Justice prison.
Go to the second prince's residence.
When the second prince learned that his fifth brother had arrived, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.
He knew that this fifth brother must have found some clues.
He asked someone to invite Xie Mochen into the study room, and then asked someone to guard the door and not let anyone approach.
When Xie Mochen walked into the study, he saw the second prince sitting on a chair.
He snorted coldly, "Second brother is very cunning."
