Chapter 213 Brother-in-law and sister-in-law
"Yes, brother-in-law, do you have any evidence? You slander the royal family, but the crime is even more serious. Even if you are the princess!" Princess Pucheng asked with a smile when she heard Li Jie's words, and when she spoke, she reached out to touch the broken hair in her ears.
Li Jie smiled again at this time, "Do you know that when people lie, they will involuntarily do some small movements, such as touching their noses, covering their mouths with their hands, and not daring to look at people with their eyes, while some women like to lift their hair, just like you did just now."
"Is that so? My brother-in-law is really knowledgeable, and the little girl admires it!" Princess Pucheng smiled again when she heard Li Jie's words, and still reached out to lift her hair. This time she obviously did it on purpose.
Li Jie smiled again without caring about it, and said again: "Indeed, these are just my guesses, and there is no evidence at all. But there is one thing I saw with my own eyes. That is, when you poured the wine bottle that day, you deliberately knocked over the wine barrel. Don't you also want to deny this?"
When Li Jie mentioned the pouring of wine that day, Princess Pucheng's expression suddenly froze, but then she returned to normal. Zhan Yan smiled again and said, "Brother-in-law, are you laughing at me for being too stupid? Would I deliberately knock over the wine barrel and then let my father slap me in the face?"
"Yes, no one can do such stupid things!" Li Jie smiled and said, "So after that day, I couldn't figure out why you deliberately knocked over the barrel? But when I saw your mother today, I suddenly figured it out!"
"What did my brother-in-law figure out?" The smile on Princess Pucheng's face also restrained, and her eyes became cold again staring at Li Jie, because Li Jie's words made her feel threatened.
"Actually, it's very simple. Think about it. If I were you, I was abused by my father since I was a child. I would beat him whenever I wanted to, and scold him whenever I wanted to. What makes me even more unbearable is that my father was even more cruel to my mother, and even imprisoned her, and could not even maintain basic living security. Even if I tried my best to please my father, I still couldn't change my mother's situation. What would I do at this time?"
When Li Jie said it at the end, he also looked at Princess Pucheng with a smile, but the other party just stared at him with cold eyes and had no intention of answering his question.
Seeing that Princess Pucheng did not answer, Li Jie continued, "Since there is no hope of pleasing her father, there is only one way to end the miserable life of our mother and daughter, that is, let the man who led to the tragedy of our lives die. As long as he dies, everything will be over!"
"My brother-in-law is really good at making up stories. Is it true that in your eyes, I am a person who is so ruthless and even dares to kill his father?" Princess Pucheng finally couldn't help but say again, but the expression on her face was still very calm.
Li Jie looked at Princess Pucheng in surprise at this time, then smiled again and said, "It's really rare. I've said this. You can still remain calm. I guess you have any support, or you conclude that I have no evidence in my hands, and I can't do anything to you based on these guesses?"
"Why can't I stay calm?" Princess Pucheng asked back, then looked him up and down like Li Jie, and said again, "Brother-in-law, you suddenly stayed, and you guessed for no reason that I had committed a rebellious act like killing my father. Are you not afraid that I would sue you for my uncle?"
"It's really amazing, I actually want to turn the tables!" Li Jie smiled again when he heard this, and then suddenly asked an unrelated question, "Have you heard of the Xuzhen Academy?"
"I haven't heard of it!" Princess Pucheng was stunned when she heard this. She couldn't understand what Li Jie was going to do when he suddenly changed the subject?
"As the name suggests, the Academy of Truth Seeking is a place where the truth in the world is often taught, involving astronomy, geography, medicine, physics, etc...."
"I'm not interested in knowing about the academy!" Before Li Jie finished speaking, Princess Pucheng interrupted Li Jie. Li Jie was halfway through Li Jie's words, but now she suddenly mentioned about the academy, which made her a little anxious.
However, Li Jie ignored Princess Pucheng's interruption, regardless of whether she was willing to listen or not. At this time, he continued to preach: "I once gave a lesson in the Academy of Truth, which mainly talked about the toxicity of metals, such as lead, mercury and other metals, which are highly toxic!"
When Princess Pucheng heard the words "lead and mercury", her body was shocked. Although she was still trying her best to keep herself calm, there was a little panic in her eyes.
Li Jie continued to say: "Lead and mercury are both metals, and their poisoning symptoms are somewhat similar. For example, when people often come into contact with or even take lead, they will show irritability, no appetite, personality changes, abdominal cramps, etc. In addition, if the poisoning is deep, purple-blue lines will even appear at the root of the teeth..."
Li Jie listed the symptoms of lead poisoning one by one, and Princess Pucheng finally could not remain calm anymore. Her forehead was covered with cold sweat and her eyes were staring at Li Jie with fear. She never dreamed that there were other people in the world who understood this.
"If this situation is allowed to develop, poisoning will even go crazy, coma, or even cause other diseases, and die because this is chronic poisoning. Others will only think that this is caused by the poisoned person's illness, and few people will think about it in the aspect of poisoning!" Li Jie concluded again at the end.
When Li Jie first met Zhu Chuang, he found that Zhu Chuang's teeth were very bad. He didn't care much at that time, but now he thought that it was actually Zhu Chuang's heavy metal poisoning, which caused the teeth to discolor, so when he looked at it, he felt that Zhu Biao's teeth were very bad.
"You... do you have any evidence?" Princess Pucheng stared at Li Jie with both hands and asked again. Although she still pretended to be calm, her white little face betrayed her.
"This is the evidence!" Li Jie reached out and took out something from his arms, and then gently placed it on the edge of Princess Pucheng's bed.
This is a golden wine glass, which is one of the wine utensils used for Zhu Chuang to drink wine. Originally, these wine utensils included a wine kettle and several wine glasses. This wine glass was just now when he and Zhu Biao went to see Zhu Chuang to rescue Princess Pucheng who was being beaten, Li Jie found that the wine utensils were placed on the table, and there was wine in it. It was estimated that Zhu Chuang was also drinking before, so he secretly took away a wine glass.
"It's just a wine glass. Do you think it's poisonous? "Prince Pucheng asked again. She was still struggling to death at this time. After all, even if the wine glass is poisonous, it is chronic. Unless it is used for many years, it will have no effect.
