Koizumi held her breath and prepared to announce the good news all at once.
Unexpectedly, he just made a start, and instead of bringing a surprise to His Highness the Crown Prince, he brought a shocking shock.
A slave like him who is used to serving noble people can usually guess what the noble person is thinking just by looking at his reaction, especially since Mo Junyu did not hide it at this time.
"Your Highness, please don't misunderstand me. This servant is here to announce the good news. This is really a great event!"
Xiaoquanzi explained hurriedly, fearing that Mo Junyu would misunderstand again and get to the point.
Not the deposed prince
Mo Junyu's expression was frozen and he looked at Xiaoquanzi doubtfully.
Xiaoquanzi nodded sharply and spoke the content of the imperial edict briefly and quickly: "The Emperor knows that you have been framed by a traitor this time..."
Before he finished speaking, Mo Junyu stood up loudly.
Before Koizumi finished speaking, Pi Tou snatched the imperial edict from the other party's hand and opened it.
This is probably the first time in all the years that Koizumi has read out imperial edicts that he has encountered a situation where he directly snatched the imperial edicts.
I was a little dumbfounded, but he quickly suppressed me firmly.
He continued to say in a high voice: "His Majesty said that he gave you a chance to atone for your sins. As long as you can catch the real murderer who poisoned Caifeng within three days, everything before can be forgotten."
By forgetting the blame, even the previous punishments can be thrown away, and Mo Junyu's status as prince can be preserved.
"Your Majesty asked your slave to give this to you!" Xiaoquanzi stuffed another note into Mo Junyu's hand.
Deliberately lowering his voice, he mysteriously confessed: "As long as you follow the instructions above, you will be able to catch the real culprit."
He even provided the method to catch the real culprit. Don't let this be too obvious!
Mo Junyu couldn't wait to open the note and was stunned when he saw the writing on it.
With the familiar handwriting, he immediately recognized that the note was written by Mo Junyang.
"Jun Yang..." His Highness the Crown Prince pondered.
Xiao Quanzi explained his doubts in an obedient manner, "Prince Yelu from Liang Kingdom came to the imperial study just now to cause trouble. Although Your Majesty dealt with it, he still asked his servants to invite Prince Mo.
After the two noblemen had a secret talk in the royal study for a while, the prince left, and his majesty issued an imperial edict to you, your highness, and asked your servant to explain everything to you. What else are you unclear about? "
This is also the reason why Koizumi is like a cannonball when he comes up, and everything is thrown away.
After Mo Junyu thought for a moment, he understood the reason why Mo Xiangbin asked Xiaoquanzi to do this - he didn't want him to be separated from Mo Junyang because of a misunderstanding, and he misunderstood that Mo Junyang was unwilling to save him.
In fact, even if Mo Junyang really let it go, he just felt hurt and would not blame Mo Junyang for it.
But just now I heard Mo You mentioning that Mo Junyang was ready to give up helping him, and then he heard that Mo Junyang was silent - looking at what Mo Junyang was doing, if Mo Xiangbin hadn't taken the initiative to mention it, that person wouldn't have taken the initiative to talk to him. Ti-helped him so much.
Mo Junyu's thoughts suddenly changed. This feeling was too difficult to describe!
There's fear, there's emotion, there's relief...
In the end, everything turned into a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he couldn't help but call softly: "Brother Yang."
Mo You watched from the side and cried with joy. He pulled Mo Junyu and said happily: "Your Highness, this is really great! I know that Your Majesty will never give up on you!"
Look, isn't the opportunity here? Let's hurry up and follow the prompts, and we will definitely catch the murderer..."
He read the content on the rice paper clearly, paused, and asked doubtfully: "Isn't this the content of "Qinzhou Chronicles? Caifeng Chapter"? What kind of method is this to solve the case?"
Mo You was purely talking to himself, but he had a loud voice and never restrained himself. He didn't expect that his voice could not only be heard clearly by the two people around him, but also successfully reach the ears of another person.
The secret spread silently, and the three of them were unaware.
Xiaoquanzi shook his head and said that he was just a messenger and had no idea what Mo Xiangbin and Mo Junyang had discussed secretly.
Continue to repeat Mo Xiangbin's explanation, "In short, please act as soon as possible, Your Highness, and don't make any noise, so as not to cause complications."
Mo Junyu nodded cautiously, and ordered his subordinates to give Xiaoquanzi a generous reward before sending him out of the East Palace.
Mo You asked quickly: "I still have a doubt. The method provided by the Crown Prince - said to be a method - is actually more like a legend!"
'The colorful phoenix has a spirit, and its eyes can see through the yin and yang of life and death... The reflection of the murderer cannot be evaded. '
"Qinzhou Chronicles - Colorful Phoenix Chapter - Nirvana Rebirth" records the 'Colorful Phoenix', a sacred object. It is said that a pair of glazed eyes can record all the ugly things in the world. If someone has evil thoughts about it and harms it, it will definitely be punished by that The double glazed eyes recorded it and it will not disappear even after death.
It sounds like nonsense at first glance, who knows if it will be effective!
After all, this 'Colorful Phoenix' is a rare species with only two appearing in the past millennium. Normal people would not have evil thoughts about such a precious thing, so it is impossible to verify whether the content recorded in "Qinzhou Chronicles" is true. of
"To take a step back, even if what "Qinzhou Chronicles" said is true, the prerequisite for using this method is that the murderer met Caifeng before killing Caifeng.
The current situation is that we have no idea how Caifeng was killed by the murderer! What if the murderer used some special method to kill Caifeng without confronting Caifeng, wouldn't this method be useless? "
Mo You raised two key questions one after another.
No solution.
Mo Junyu's excitement was suddenly dampened.
It's not that easy for him to be rehabilitated!
This job is not that easy to do!
"Cai Feng must have seen the murderer before she died."
Suddenly, a crisp voice broke in, interrupting the dejection of the two of them.
The two of them raised their heads at the same time and looked at the source of the sound.
I saw Shi Qingxue standing at the door of the East Palace at some point, looking at them calmly.
The words just now were also said by her.
Mo Junyu didn't think about why Shi Qingxue suddenly appeared here. As if he saw a savior, he hurried forward and said, "Sister Xue, why are you here? Come on, let's go into the house."
Shi Qingxue smiled at him, pursed her lips and said, "Qingxue came here because she hopes to visit the room where Caifeng stayed at that time."
Mo Junyu, like a human spirit, immediately understood that the other party was here to investigate Caifeng's death.
Of course he was extremely happy, but while leading people to the room, he couldn't help but wonder why Shi Qingxue did such a troublesome thing
"I was also present that day. I couldn't watch a sacred object being poisoned without an explanation, so some things must be confirmed." Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and explained in a low voice.
Mo Junyu smiled sheepishly when someone saw through his thoughts.
He quickly changed the subject, "By the way, what did you mean when you said Caifeng must have seen the murderer?"
"literal meaning."
The outside of Caifeng's house is still covered by a thick black cloth, and no light can come in at all. Shi Qingxue didn't ask anyone to lift the black cloth, but walked into the house carrying an oil lamp.
Mo Junyu stood at the door, unwilling to enter the house, and only asked: "Three groups of people have come and gone to check here, but they haven't found any clues. What is Sister Xue looking for?"
The subtext is: you won’t find anything.
Shi Qingxue didn't say anything about Mo Junyu's attempt to dampen his enthusiasm. He only said vaguely: "I'm looking for something... Your Highness, can you tell me where those three groups of people have been looking?"
Seeing that Shi Qingxue still didn't give up, Mo Junyu said more directly: "We have searched everywhere before, including the floor, doors, windows, pillars... we even turned over the beams and tiles, and after checking them one by one, No poison was found.”
In other words, they still don't know how the murderer administered the poison.
"By the way, there's another place I haven't looked for yet!" Mo Junyu's eyes lit up as he spoke.
She looked at Shi Qingxue excitedly and said quickly: "There is also a bird cage in Prince Rui's Mansion."
As he said that, he was about to walk out.
Shi Qingxue hurriedly stopped him and reminded: "We must go to Prince Rui's Mansion. Now we should check this room again first. Some clues can only be found here."
"For example?" Mo Junyu stopped and looked at Shi Qingxue curiously.
"For example, how did the murderer poison Caifeng." Shi Qingxue said the purpose of her trip without giving it away.
Mo Junyu thought for a while and said firmly: "Anyway, my people must be fine. The murderer must be an outsider, and most likely..." Lao San.
"Your Highness, be careful what you say."
Shi Qingxue lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes, looking well-behaved.
Mo Junyu smiled bitterly and stopped dwelling on this topic.
Instead, he asked: "This place has been turned upside down, no clues have been found, and we don't know how Caifeng died. How are you going to find it?"
It's just a waste of time here. It's better to go take a look at the bird cage first. I suspect that someone poisoned the bird cage from the beginning. "
"Then why did it take so many days for Caifeng to be poisoned and die? Doctor Shen said that the poison works quickly and is highly toxic. It burst out all at once. Therefore, it is inferred that the bird was poisoned no earlier than Shou. It’s the night before the banquet.”
Shi Qingxue shared all the information she knew so far with Mo Junyu without any grudge, discouraging him again, and even took the initiative to comfort him: "Your Highness, don't worry, the murderer will definitely leave clues when he commits the crime. The reason why he didn't find it before was There is no right way, let’s try another way this time.”
"What are you going to do?" Mo Junyu didn't dare to touch Qiao now, and asked Shi Qingxue seriously and politely.
Shi Qingxue raised her head and looked around, her eyes fell on the beam above the birdcage, pointed at one of the places and asked: "Have you sent anyone up to check?"
"Of course I checked, but no footprints were found..." Mo Junyu paused, as if he thought of something, hesitation appeared on his face.
After a long while, Mo Junyu said hesitantly: "But I found a mark on the top of the beam, as if something had been stuck on it. I thought that when I was cleaning up this room, the servants found the stain and removed it. There’s nothing surprising about that.”
"Hmm." Shi Qingxue responded vaguely, not commenting on this guess.
He just handed the oil lamp in Xia Mang's hand and told him, "Put out the oil lamp."
He went to close the door from the inside again.
Mo Junyu watched the light being blocked out little by little, and hurriedly shouted: "It's so dark in the room, wouldn't it be impossible to see anything if it is turned off?"
