The whole world thinks that I am trying to usurp the throne

Zhou Xi withdrew his eyes, nailed his eyes to the gavel on the table case, and thought about how to proceed with the trial of the case. Just at this time, a yamen servant came up to the hall and whispered in his ear: "The imperial doctor There is news that the medicinal powder found in the second prince's palace is the same as the poison/medicine in this porcelain bottle."

Hearing this, Zhou Coke rubbed the gavel with his fingers while staring at Yan Xun and said, "Second Highness, some medicinal powder was found in your palace, and the composition of the medicinal powder is the same as the poison/medicine contained in this porcelain bottle. "

Zhou Cozy looked at Yan Xun's expression carefully, a little surprise flashed across Yan Xun's face, and he returned to his original composure, and he asked immediately, "Second Highness, what do you want to say?"

Before Yan Xun could speak, Yan Huan looked at Yan Xun worriedly, and called out in a low voice, "Second Brother..."

"I'm fine." Yan Xun patted Yan Huan's back lightly, looked up at Zhou Cozy, "Why is there poison/medicine in my palace? Where is the poison/medicine hidden?"

Zhou Cozy immediately replied: "The poison/medicine is hidden in a plum bottle with blue glaze and white bamboo pattern in the bedroom of His Highness the Second Highness. As for why there is poison/medicine in the palace of the Second Highness, how can I know?"

The plum bottle with blue glaze and white bamboo pattern was a gift from Yan Xun on Yan Xun's birthday last year. Because of the narrow mouth of the bottle, only plum branches can be inserted in the plum bottle, so it is called a plum bottle, and it can also be used as a wine vessel.

Because Yan Yu had bullied him, Yan Xun didn't like Yan Yu, but he couldn't be noticed by others, so after he got the plum vase, he simply placed it in the most conspicuous place in the bedroom as an ornament.His birthday was five days after Bailu, and a few months later, when the plums were cold and proud, he picked a few branches of cold plums and put them in the plum vase. At that time, there was nothing strange in the plum vase. Hidden inside?And who hid it?

Yan Xun's complexion remained unchanged, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but this smile was not warm at all, but was soaked in sarcasm: "Lord Zhou, who searched for that plum vase?"

"It was found by a yamen servant during the search by the officials." Zhou Co guessed, "Does the Second Highness want to say that the searchers put the poison/medicine into the plum bottle?"

Yan Xun nodded and said: "If this poison/drug belongs to me, and I want to use this poison/drug to kill the emperor, I will definitely destroy the rest of the poison/drug, why hide it in my own In the plum bottle in the bedroom? Is it because I am afraid that others will not find evidence of the crime? I will definitely not do such a stupid thing."

After finishing speaking, Yan Xun looked at Wang Shu, and said calmly: "Right now, Liu Yuan is dead, and he can no longer speak, but before Liu Yuan died, he never admitted that he had a secret meeting with me, let alone that he got this gift from me. A porcelain bottle of poison/medicine is used to harm the emperor, since Liu Yuan and I believe that the secret meeting does not exist at all, Wang Shu, how can you prove that there is really a secret meeting?"

Wang Shu didn't know how to refute for a while, but Yan Xun said sharply: "Wang Shu, you clearly framed me deliberately, and you always wait by my side, so there is a chance to put the poison/drug into the blue glaze. Inside the plum vase with white bamboo patterns..."

Wang Shu didn't expect that Yan Xun would put the crime of murdering Yan Yu on her head, and interrupted with a loud voice: "My servant never thought of harming His Highness the Crown Prince! Second Highness, why do you want to slander this servant?"

Yan Xun saw that Wang Shu's eyes were clouded with mist, and said with a sneer, "You murdered the emperor, and you fabricated the fact that I had a secret meeting with Liu Yuan, and put all the suspicion on me, making the emperor blame me. To come to this court again to give false testimony is really a shame!"

Wang Shu was beaten pale by Yan Xun's words, fell to the ground, and wept softly: "Second Highness, you murdered His Highness the Crown Prince for the sake of the throne, are you going to kill your slaves now?"

"Wang Shu, if you don't admit it, how can you prove that there was a secret meeting?" Yan Xun smiled lightly, "If you want to say that after the secret meeting, Liu Yuan bumped into the maid carrying soup in the mother's harem, you can save your tongue It's hard work. First, the maid didn't see Liu Yuan's face clearly, and the person who bumped into her was only similar in shape to Liu Yuan, how could he be sure that the person was Liu Yuan? Second, even if the person who bumped into the maid was really Liu Yuan, how can she know where Liu Yuan came from, and whether she has that porcelain bottle of poison/medicine on her body?"

Hearing this, Wang Shu's face was full of tears, and the tears flowed down her skin, wetting the ground in front of her. She kowtowed to Zhou Co in the hall, touched her forehead to the ground, and said in a sobbing voice: " Master Zhou, this servant is innocent, and everything that this servant says is what I saw with my own eyes, and there is absolutely no falsehood."

Wang Shu's appearance was like weeds lingering in the violent north wind, which was extremely pitiful. However, Zhou Yan was not a soft-hearted person, and ignored her, only thinking about the joints of the case.

Just at this time, there was the sound of a wheelchair rolling from far to near, Zhou Yan looked at the reputation, and was stunned, the person sitting on the wheelchair was actually Xiao Yuebai, Xiao Yuebai was pushed by a doctor with white beard and white hair. After that, I went to the hall.

Xiao Yue's face was pale and pale, even the color on his lips had faded away. Because of spending the night in the cell, his moon-white clothes were wrinkled and stained with dust, making him look very dim, which contrasted directly with his whole body. Depressed endlessly.

Seeing this, Yan Xun froze for a moment, even his breathing and heartbeat stopped. After a long time, he came back to his senses, stood up on the ground, hurried to Xiao Yuebai, and asked anxiously: "Mr. , how could you be like this?"

Before the words fell to the ground, Yan Xun didn't care about this much, bent down, and stretched out his hand to lift the hem of Xiao Yuebai's shirt. Although his feet were wrapped in soft satin, they were clearly swollen. He carefully covered the soft satin with his hands. On the head of the son, he said anxiously: "Sir, does it hurt?"

The one who was injured was clearly himself, but why did Yan Xun act like a wounded cub, urgently needing to be comforted by himself?

Xiao Yuebai felt that his heart was softened by the warmth from Yan Xun's hands, like steamed glutinous rice cakes that were about to melt in Yan Xun's palm, and he wanted to take Yan Xun into his arms , trying to comfort her, but because there were others present, she could only shake her head and said, "It's nothing, just take care of it for a few days."
