Chu Yanchen was also slightly stunned.

Then, he suddenly realized, "The person you saw should be Ling Yuan."

"He is Ling Feng, the twin brother of Ling Yuan. I was secretly investigating a major corruption case at the time, and Ling Yuan... was martyred."

“Dead? The prince wants to say that there is no evidence after death?” Gu Qingshan said, “Then whatever the prince says is true.”

"You're pushing all the blame onto a dead person! Are you, Prince Jing, not an adulterer who's obsessed with someone else's wife?"

The veins on Chu Yanchen's forehead bulged.

But unexpectedly, he did not do it.

He could kill Gu Qingshan who provoked him with just one slap.

But he knew very well that Gu Qingshan was deliberately trying to provoke him in class.

There are so many eyes watching inside and outside the hall.

If he accidentally killed someone, he would lose the case today.

"I won't die without evidence."

"Anything that has happened will leave traces."

A young man's voice came from outside the hall.

Everyone immediately turned around to look, and the crowded people also consciously made way for them.

The man was wearing embroidered clothes and holding a staff and a tiger talisman.

It turned out to be the embroidered clothes envoy who arrived late.

"The key point of this case is that the Embroidered Uniform Envoy has found important evidence." The one who came was a young Embroidered Uniform Envoy with a handsome face, fair skin and cold eyes.

"I am honored to meet the three adults and the prince."

Fang Xun cupped his hands, spread out the file in his hand, and said in a cold voice, "On the first day of September in the tenth year of Yongchu, Prince Jing was summoned to return to the capital secretly to investigate the corruption of disaster relief funds."

"But someone around him leaked the news, causing Prince Jing to be targeted. The other party learned that Prince Jing was very skilled, so they invited a Miao expert."

"Prince Jing was framed by someone close to him and was poisoned."

"The days when Gu Qingshan got married were when Prince Jing's poison took effect."

"This is the file from that year. Please have a look, adults."

Some files are confidential, and only the Embroidered Uniform Envoy can easily obtain them.

The three adults in the hall immediately passed the file around.

They all nodded, "The timing is right!"

"Prince Jing was already poisoned at the time... So, it wasn't Prince Jing's fault?"

Fang Xun produced a second piece of evidence.

"There is another letter here, which is actually left for Prince Jing or his confidants."

"It was because the letter was hidden so well that it was not discovered until it was buried."

Everyone inside and outside the hall was staring at the small object in Fang Xun's hand.

The thing was about the thickness of a thumb and as long as a middle finger, with a leather rope attached, like a brass whistle hung around the neck.

But the leather cord was rotten and the brass was covered with thick green rust.

Fang Xun carefully turned the whistle on the table in front of the three adults.

I didn't expect that this small whistle actually has a mechanism.

He turned the mechanism and rotated the whistle body, and the whistle opened with a snap. Inside was a piece of cloth with words written on it.

“It’s actually a letter written in blood!”

"That's my brother's whistle!" Ling Feng said in surprise.

Lord Tong carefully unfolded the cloth and almost held his breath as he read the words written in blood.

"Only virgin blood can break the poison of witchcraft. But there are spies in the mansion, so I dare not use anyone in the mansion."

"Gu Qingshan came to me and said he was willing to exchange anything for the red pill."

"The palace does not have red elixir. I don't know where he heard the rumor. I rejected him, but he could see that I looked anxious."

"He said maybe he could help! As long as I give him the red pill."

"I was confused for a moment and told him that I needed a virgin with a clean background and a clean family history..."

"After I sent her to the prince's bedroom, he told me that she was his newlywed wife and that she was clean..."

"I know very well that I have made a big mistake. I was confused at the time and forged the red pill for him."

"But I was surrounded before I could personally admit my fault to His Majesty and accept the punishment... I feel so sorry for His Majesty."

After reading it, Lord Tong handed the blood letter to the official from the Ministry of Justice.

The official from the Ministry of Justice read out the words written in blood in public.

Gu Qingshan said angrily, “It turned out to be a fake red pill! No wonder it failed to save my father’s life!”

When he shouted like this, everyone inside and outside the yamen hall looked at him in surprise.

It seems that what was written in the blood letter... is true?

Fang Xun said, "At that time, Ling Yuan found clues about the person who betrayed the prince and went to chase him. Unexpectedly, he fell into a trap and was shot by an arrow and fell off a cliff."

"He wrote this suicide note before he died. Perhaps he was afraid that it would be discovered by others, so he hid it in the whistle. I didn't expect that it would be hidden for seven years."

Ling Feng frowned and looked at Fang Xun.

"No... I remember this whistle was buried with my brother!"

"Where did you find this whistle?"

Fang Xun looked at him and said nothing.

Ling Feng asked in a trembling voice, "You dug up my brother's grave?"

Fang Xun still didn't speak.

But his attitude has already given the answer.

Ling Feng:......

Brother, the punishment you want has come late!

“It’s fake!” Gu Qingshan suddenly said, “You forged the blood letter! You made it all up!”

"You made up this story to exonerate Prince Jing!"

Fang Xun seemed to suddenly remember something.

"Although the poison from that year has been cured, it will leave traces."

As he spoke, he took out a small booklet from his bosom. The booklet was very torn and the cover was written with "The Secret History of Miao Area".

"It is recorded in this book that after this kind of poison is broken, it will leave a green mark on the body of the person who is doing the detoxification and the person being detoxified."

Prince Jing was surprised when he heard this.

He rolled up his sleeves, and there was a deep blue mark on his arm.

He had always wondered about the origin of this mark, but he really couldn't remember it. He had practiced martial arts and fought in battles for many years and had many injuries on his body, so he didn't take it too seriously.

Everyone looked at Song Mingli.

Song Mingli shook his head blankly, "I don't have it on me."

Even if there is, it is impossible to do it here, like Chu Yanchen did, rolling up his sleeves for everyone to see!

She is a woman after all.

"You can ask two women to accompany Madam to the inner room next to the government office to have a look." Lord Tong said, "Perhaps it is somewhere Madam can't see herself."

Song Mingli shook his head, "Really not. If there is, my maid will tell me."

"but……"

Song Mingli frowned and stared at the bruise on Chu Yanchen's arm.

Such a location, such a color...

"But what?" Lord Tong asked.

"Please call Jingyou again..."

Jingyou was summoned to the classroom again.

"Please look, sirs..." Song Mingli rolled up Jingyou's sleeve, revealing his right arm.

On Jingyou’s arm, at the same position, there was the same green mark.

"What's wrong with this mark?" Jingyou asked in confusion, "Isn't this my birthmark? I was born with it."

Chu Yanchen immediately rolled up his sleeves again and squatted in front of him to let him see.

"This is not a birthmark, it is the mark left after the poison was removed." After Chu Yanchen said this, he couldn't help but hug Jingyou.

"It was your mother who saved me, but I didn't know that and let you fall into the hands of the Gu family... and suffer for so many years."

"Daddy is so confused..."

Chu Yanchen hugged Jingyou's small body, his voice choked with sobs.

The Empress Chen, who was sitting in the back hall, couldn't help it, so she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and walked away crying.

"This child... why is this child so pitiful?"

"How could the Gu family use her so thoroughly? "

"This is really cannibalism!"

The Empress Chen was so angry that she gnashed her teeth and said, "This Gu guy should be torn into pieces!"
