Chapter 217: Motive for committing the crime

Views:

Huang Yueli was also a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Bai Ruoqi could actually come up with this trick. As expected of her cousin, she is indeed smart enough and... shameless enough!

Huang Yueli made a frightened expression at the right time, widened her innocent eyes, and said in disbelief: "Second sister, you...how could you say that about me? How could I slander you?"

She bit her pink lower lip, as if she was about to cry.

When the Queen Mother saw her, she felt even more pity in her heart when she thought of the injustice she had suffered over the years.

"Girl Li, don't be sad. The Aijia believes that you are not such a person! Qier, how can you say this about your sister? The Aijia really didn't expect that you are such a person!"

"The Queen Mother, you are too partial, Qier has evidence!"

Bai Ruoqi gritted her teeth and defended herself loudly.

"Before Qier fainted just now, she was drinking with Third Sister, so she is the most likely suspect of poisoning the wine!"

The Queen Mother was stunned and looked back at Huang Yueli, "Is that so?"

Huang Yueli said aggrievedly: "Yes, we were indeed drinking at that time, but it was the second sister who came to me to drink. She brought the cups and the flask, and the second sister is such a powerful master, how can I do it?" Poison under her nose?"

"Then you mean, I poisoned myself and drank the poisoned wine myself? Am I that stupid?"

Huang Yueli pursed her lips, looking innocent.

"I... you said you were stupid, I didn't say..."

Hearing this, many people in the audience couldn't help laughing.

"Pfft..."

"It's so funny, there are still people who say they are stupid!"

Bai Ruoqi blushed and couldn't believe that she had fallen into Huang Yueli's trap again without checking for a moment!

"You... it's useless for you to ridicule me! When Dr. Liu came here just now, was it you who proposed the method of diagnosing the pulse with a thread? If you didn't have ulterior motives, why did you do it so much? It's obvious that you and Dr. Liu had colluded long ago!"

"What did I collude with?"

Huang Yueli's expression became even more innocent.

"Second sister, it's true that I proposed the Xuansi pulse diagnosis, but I was thinking about your reputation! After all, your bleeding place is... there... If the imperial doctor sees this... "

"What do you mean?!"

"Besides, I really don't understand why Dr. Liu 'misdiagnosed' when he was diagnosing the pulse with a silk thread. When he saw the patient's face, he wouldn't misdiagnose? Why? Could it be that Dr. Liu didn't misdiagnose, or was just a picker? He Who is the target?"

Huang Yueli opened her big curious eyes, seeming to be really confused and needed Bai Ruoqi to solve her confusion.

When Bai Ruoqi was asked this question, she was speechless!

She didn't expect Huang Yueli to react so quickly, and he immediately caught the flaw in her words!

If Dr. Liu would not have "misdiagnosed" Bai Ruoqi when he saw her, wouldn't it mean that the mastermind behind this incident has something to do with her, Bai Ruoqi

Bai Ruoqi had no choice but to avoid the topic and continued: "Anyway, we were the only ones drinking at that time. It was either me or her who poisoned me. Of course, I couldn't have poisoned myself. The only suspect was Bai Ruoli. Moreover, She also had a huge motive for committing the crime!"

"Oh? What's the motive?" the Queen Mother asked.

Everyone present also pricked up their ears.

Bai Ruoqi said loudly: "Bai Ruoli has always regarded herself as the fiancée of His Highness the Crown Prince, and she wants to eliminate me as a competitor!"
