If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Qin Shu took a step back and asked in confusion, "May I ask why Your Highness wants to arrest me? What crime have I committed?"

"What crime?"

Prince Ning sneered and approached Qin Shu, "Everyone here is from Prince Jin's Mansion, and you are the only outsider. My third brother has never been poisoned in all these years, how come he was poisoned when you came?"

Qin Shu laughed, "Your Highness Prince Ning's method of solving cases is truly miraculous. I really admire you. I wonder what evidence Your Highness Prince Ning has to prove that I was the one who poisoned you?"

Prince Ning snorted coldly, "Evidence? As long as you enter the Dali Temple, there will be evidence. Come here!"

"Wait a minute, Your Highness." Princess Jin came over and stood in front of Qin Shu, saying softly, "I heard that the prince had called the imperial physician, so I brought people here. When I arrived, Miss Qin was just passing someone to pass on the message, and she hadn't entered yet."

She turned her head and glanced at Qin Shu, and said, "This poison was not administered by Miss Qin."

Based on what Qin Shu had said to her before, she subconsciously felt that the matter of the prince being poisoned might not be that simple.

It is true that she is the princess, but if she causes any trouble for the prince, I am afraid that the prince will not let her off easily.

Prince Ning sneered and said, "Princess Jin is indeed as virtuous as the rumors say. She is really willing to protect the woman that my third brother likes."

Seeing the ugly expression on Princess Jin's face, Prince Ning smiled smugly, "I have been standing outside the palace gate for a while. Qin entered the palace at 9 o'clock, and half an hour has passed."

"I wonder if she walked for half an hour from the gate to here, or waited outside the gate for half an hour?"

Princess Jin was suddenly speechless and couldn't help but glare at Qin Shu fiercely.

Qin Shu lowered her eyes and smiled slightly, "Your Highness Prince Ning came to the gate of the mansion but did not enter. Was it just to wait for this hour? Or, Your Highness Prince Ning already knew what would happen in an hour. Now, is he entering the mansion to verify it?"

Prince Ning's face immediately turned pale, and he said harshly, "You are just a lowly person. How can you interrupt me when I am talking to Princess Jin?"

Qin Shu smiled calmly, "So what Your Highness Prince Ning means is that you can punish the common people at will and kill innocent people, but you don't allow the people to defend themselves?"

She raised her eyes, looked at Prince Ning, and bent her knees slightly, "Since that's the case, I will leave it to your Highness Prince Ning to deal with. You can kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you."

The current emperor is willing to listen to the opinions of the people and gather their wisdom. He not only allows civil and military officials to give advice and suggestions, but also allows local governments to listen to the opinions of the people.

However, Prince Ning acted arbitrarily and sentenced others to death based solely on his own conjectures.

They take human life so lightly and don't allow others to defend themselves.

Although in private, the lives of the people are indeed worthless, and they can be killed at will, and as long as there is no trouble, no one will care.

However, the woman in front of him was a loyal and filial daughter who had appeared before the emperor and all the court officials and had her name recorded.

A great hero who had just successfully planted a new crop was tortured into confessing and even killed...

Once the emperor and the censors of the Censorate knew about this, I'm afraid the emperor's memorial would go straight to Prince Ning's face!

Prince Ning glared at Qin Shu fiercely and said in a cold voice: "You are cunning and treacherous, and you are very eloquent. Let's see if you are innocent when you go to the Dali Temple Prison!"

Qin Shu said calmly, "Why is your Highness the Prince of Ning so anxious to throw me into prison to get a conviction? Since your Highness the Prince of Ning has already waited for half an hour, why not wait a little longer and see what the Imperial Doctor Jin says?"

"All the guards in Xuanlang Pavilion can testify that when I arrived, His Royal Highness Prince Jin was already drinking. Could it be that I put poison in his wine right in front of him?"

"Moreover, your Highness's wine and food have passed through several hands. Anyone who has come into contact with the wine and food is a suspect. Why don't you ask Her Majesty to order all these people to be gathered together and interrogated one by one."

Prince Ning sneered, "Why, now it's your turn as a little girl to be the head of the Prince of Jin's Mansion?"

Qin Shu knelt slightly and said, "How can I, an outsider, be qualified to manage the household for the princess? I was just suggesting it. The final decision has to be made by the mistress of the mansion, the princess."

Princess Jin immediately walked to the door and ordered, "Come here, arrest all those who have come into contact with His Highness's food today. Interrogate them after His Highness wakes up!"

At this moment, a eunuch in a crimson-purple eunuch robe squeezed in from the crowd and asked curiously, "Why is it so lively today? Is it a good opportunity or an unfortunate opportunity for us to come?"

The visitor bowed and greeted the two princes and Princess Jin, and after explaining the reason, he looked at Qin Shu and smiled, "Isn't this Miss Qin?"

Qin Shu looked up in surprise, then knelt down and said yes.

The eunuch smiled and said, "I am a servant of the Emperor. I saw the young lady once in the court that day."

Qin Shu suddenly realized: It turned out to be Li Dexian, the eunuch chief of the emperor.

She quickly knelt down and bowed, then bowed again and said, "I have no eyes to recognize gold and jade, I greet you, Lord Li."

Li Dexian smiled and stretched out his hand, "Hey, young lady, stop being so polite. The emperor has been praising you for being loyal to the country and filial to your parents these past few days, and saying that you are a rare good child."

Qin Shu replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise, and thank you, Lord Li."

The Princess of Jin kept smiling, but Prince Ning's face turned dark in an instant.

At this time, Doctor Jin came out, wiping his sweat, and said with a long sigh, "Your Highness is blessed by heaven. After drinking the poisonous wine, he felt stomach discomfort and vomited it all out."

"Fortunately, the poison was not serious. I have already cured your Highness of the poison. You will recover after a short rest."

When Princess Jin heard this, she hurried in.

Prince Ning's eyes were as sharp as a knife, sweeping across the submissive Qin Shu, then he flicked his sleeves and followed her in.

Prince Yu looked at Qin Shu thoughtfully, then ran in while shouting, "Second brother, wait for me."

Li Dexian also came in holding a whisk.

Everyone crowded into a small warm room, and it was crowded for a while.

Then Qin Shu immediately heard Li Dexian yelling, "Oh, Your Highness, what happened? What happened to you?"

……

A quarter of an hour later, Li Dexian followed Prince Ning and Prince Yu out of the inner room.

Before leaving, he smiled and said to Qin Shu, "Miss Qin, the emperor heard that you tried to grow some vegetables and was very curious. He said that he would summon you to the palace in a few days. You should make some preparations early so that you won't be panicked when the time comes."

The Emperor wants to summon Qin Shu to the palace, so Prince Ning should not use the poisoning of Prince Jin to embarrass her during this period.

Qin Shu was grateful and thanked him respectfully.

She lowered her head slightly, but could still feel the cold gaze of His Royal Highness Prince Ning falling on her head.

And Prince Yu...

Qin Shu waited until everyone had gone far away before she slowly stood up.

She lowered her eyes and glanced downstairs, just in time to meet Prince Yu's gaze as he turned back to look at her.

There was both teasing and understanding in that look.

There was a meaningful smile at the corner of his lips.

Qin Shu was startled. When she looked carefully again, Prince Yu had already turned his head back, as if the glance just now was just an illusion of Qin Shu herself.

It turns out that none of the royal family members are simple!
