Chapter 98

"Ye Ping, what do you think?"

When Empress Dowager Qi saw Ye Ping looking at her eyes, she asked in a deep voice without saying a word.

Ye Ping remained silent, but his thoughts were constantly changing.

He guessed that after he refused, Empress Dowager Qi would find another way to pour dirty water on Concubine Zhou's head. However, he thought that Empress Dowager Qi was only looking for someone to eat snacks and fainted, but he did not expect that he would directly poison Musk Yue.

It's no wonder that in this world, the one who can keep the secrets the most is never a dead person who will never speak.

This made him angry, but it also made him feel powerless.

Everything arranged by Empress Dowager Qi formed a perfect closed loop of evidence. Even if he wanted to overturn the case, he could not turn it over.

Moreover, he had no intention of overturning the case. Empress Dowager Qi and Concubine Zhou, the two men, had a dog bite and a mouthful of hair, were what he wanted to see.

But now, Musk Moon is disrupting all his plans.

If he didn't care about anything, then wouldn't Musk Moon die in vain?

Musk Yue must be helped to get back the justice of Musk Yue, but the internal struggle between Empress Dowager Qi and Concubine Zhou must be allowed to continue. The more chaotic the palace is, the higher the possibility of Musk Yue returning to justice for Musk Yue!

Moreover, we need to find out the cause of Musk Moon's death to see if she died voluntarily, or if someone attacked her!

"I only talk about evidence and not inference. Please bring the candied fruit and let me see it."

Ye Ping said calmly.

"Go and bring it!"

When Empress Dowager Qi heard Ye Ping's words, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. After nodding slightly, she said in a deep voice to the old eunuch beside her.

When the old eunuch heard the sound, he hurriedly ran into the hall without thinking. After a little, he brought a plate of candied fruit to Ye Ping.

"Yes, there is indeed something poisonous here, and it's extremely heavy!"

Ye Ping picked up the plate, sniffed it lightly, and then dipped his fingers in a little bit. After putting it in his mouth, he opened his eyes and said in a deep voice.

"It's indeed that bitch. The emperor favors her in every way. The Ai family also loves her and spoils her. Unexpectedly, she even plots against the Ai family. She is so vicious and doesn't deserve to be a human being!"

When Empress Dowager Qi heard this, she slapped her on the table next to her. She immediately turned her head and looked like an angry elderly tigress. She said to the old eunuch: "Go and invite the emperor and Concubine Zhou, tell them that the murderer who poisoned Xiang Ai's family has been caught!"

"Here."

When the old eunuch listened to this, he nodded and said yes, and rushed out of Cining Palace in a hurry.

"Ye Ping, the Ai family is all pointing at you to make the decision for the Ai family."

Immediately afterwards, Empress Dowager Qi grabbed Ye Ping's arm, wiped her nose and tears, and choked.

If Ye Ping had not seen her memory, he would have known the cause of Musk Moon's death more clearly, which would have meant that this was just an old man who had encountered his daughter-in-law's disobedient and unfilial piety.

"Don't worry, the Queen Mother, I will say whatever I find and I will not hide a word."

Ye Ping nodded and said calmly.

"It's good, it's good, this time, the Ai family finally did not misjudgment this time." Empress Dowager Qi immediately showed gratitude when she heard the sound, and then told the person to take two chairs from the room and sit in the center of the yard with Ye Ping, wiping her tears while waiting for the arrival of Emperor Xuanhe and Concubine Zhou.

Empress Dowager Qi summoned her and said that she had found out the real murderer, so Emperor Xuanhe naturally did not dare to slack off. Although she didn't understand why she had to bring Concubine Zhou with her, she still rushed over.

"Ye Ping, how did you investigate the case that makes the Empress Dowager so sad?!" Emperor Xuanhe took Concubine Zhou and walked into the Cining Palace. When he saw Empress Dowager Qi sitting on a chair sobbing, his face immediately darkened. He turned his head to look at Ye Ping, paused word by word, and asked in a deep voice.

"Emperor, don't blame the good people. It's not Ye Ping, but someone else." When Empress Dowager Qi heard this, she immediately raised her hand and interrupted Emperor Xuanhe's words. Then she looked at Ye Ping and said in a deep voice: "Ye Ping, tell them carefully what happened and what you discovered."

"Today, in the Cining Palace, a palace maid named Musk Yue died suddenly. I came to investigate and found that she died of the poison from the trap. After searching the Cining Palace, I found that the candied fruit sent by Concubine Zhou contained a large amount of poison from the trap. Therefore, the Empress Dowager invited His Majesty the Emperor and Concubine Zhou to come here..."

Ye Ping heard the sound and told everything that happened today.

"Nothing nonsense... You're talking nonsense. The Empress Dowager has always been very good to me. It's too late to respect her. How could she poison her?"

When Concubine Zhou heard this, she could not understand. Empress Dowager Qi planned to put the blame on her head. After being stunned, she pointed at Ye Ping and scolded her angrily, then knelt on the ground, looked at Emperor Xuanhe with a begging, and said, "Your Majesty, I swear that I have never committed the murder of the Empress Dowager! In my opinion, it must be that Ye Ping had committed the murder of Zhou Qian. I also have to pay the charge of murdering the Empress Dowager on my head!"

"Absurd, how could my beloved concubine be a poisoned person!"

After hearing this, Emperor Xuanhe's face darkened, pointed at Ye Ping, and scolded coldly.

"Emperor, your beloved concubine is not a poisoned person. Do you think it is because the Ai family feels that they have lived too long and poisoned themselves?"

When Empress Dowager Qi heard Emperor Xuanhe's words, she immediately glanced at Concubine Zhou who was kneeling on the ground and mocked him.

"That's not what I mean."

Emperor Xuanhe heard the sound, shook his head quickly and denied it.

"That's not what it means? The Ai family was almost poisoned to death. Now that the source of the poisoning has been found, you not only did not help the Ai family punish the poisoning people, but instead spoke to this poisonous woman. What does it mean? It seems that you have really grown up and forgot how the Ai family supported you to grow up in those years..."

Empress Dowager Qi's eyes turned red, and she looked at Emperor Xuanhe, tears streaming down her eyes and talking about the past.

"My son swears, I absolutely don't mean this! But the candied fruit is poisonous, and it cannot be proved that it was poisoned by Concubine Zhou, and she has no motivation to poison it."

Although Emperor Xuanhe was the least willing to listen to Empress Dowager Qi’s past, she was talking about the past, and Emperor Xuanhe had to kneel down on the ground and said respectfully.

"Motivation? Emperor, you are in charge of the outer court and don't understand the hearts of these inner palace women. Why did she poison her? The Ai family knew very well. What they did was to get rid of the stumbling block of the Ai family so that she would have the final say in the future!"

When Empress Dowager Qi heard this, she wiped away the tears in the corners of her eyes, stared at Emperor Xuanhe, and said in a deep voice.

"Empress Dowager, I don't..."

Concubine Zhou knelt on the ground, walked with her knees, climbed in front of Empress Dowager Qi, and told her hard.

The dog bites the dog and begins!

It's lively!

Ye Ping looked at the drama in front of him and only regretted that there were no melon seed beer or watermelon in front of him at this moment. Otherwise, the melon would have been enjoyable!

"If you say it's not you, then tell the Ai family, who is it?"

Empress Dowager Qi was unmoved at all, looked at Concubine Zhou indifferently and asked coldly.

"The Empress Dowager doesn't believe me, so I have to die."

Zhou Guifei was in tears and pretended to hit the lotus jar beside her.

"If you take your innocence seriously, why do you need to prove it with death? I think you are exposed and you are guilty of being a thief. If you want to die, then go and die!"

But unfortunately, Concubine Zhou really underestimated the palace fighting veteran like Empress Dowager Qi. When she heard her words, she had no sympathy on her face, but she just said coldly.

Concubine Zhou was not really good at seeking death. When she heard this, she lost her voice completely and could only lie on the ground and cried constantly.

"Emperor, the Ai family is not willing to believe that this was her. However, Ye Ping has investigated the people in my palace and there is no one who has any malicious intentions. This candied fruit has been sealed in my bedroom since it was delivered. Except for two I ate when I was drinking tea, almost no one can contact me. Ask yourself, if you encounter such a thing, do you also think that your beloved concubine is the most suspicious?"

Empress Dowager Qi ignored Concubine Zhou at all, but looked at Emperor Xuanhe, paused in words and said in a deep voice.

Nothing wrong!

When Ye Ping heard the sound, his expression suddenly trembled. When he looked at Empress Dowager Qi, he immediately became a little more afraid.

At this moment, he finally understood that from beginning to end, Empress Dowager Qi probably never thought that with the help of this poisonous case, she could really kill Concubine Zhou.

From beginning to end, there was only one thing she had to do, that was, to make Concubine Zhou full of suspicion on a false charge, leaving such a stain that could not be washed away.

As long as this stain is not removed for a day, then Concubine Zhou will not be able to become a queen for a day, and will lose many of the powers she has now.

Empress Dowager Qi, a cruel person!

No, a palace fighting expert of her level is not just a ruthless person, but a werewolf!
