The genius doctor and the crazy concubine are rebellious, and the regent seduces her to no end

Time passed by minute by minute.

Every minute and every second seems particularly long.

The witness that Lin Xilan mentioned finally arrived at the Golden Palace.

His hands were shaking slightly, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he began to salute tremblingly.

The atmosphere in the Golden Palace also became tense with the arrival of witnesses.

The emperor sitting on the throne stared at the witness with his eyes as sharp as torches.

"This is?"

The person who came was clearly just an ordinary young man dressed as a businessman!

Judging from his appearance, this person is no different from the ugly maid brought by Princess Mingzhu!

so?

Is Lin Xilan also planning to find someone to call a horse a zebra?

Ha ha.

As soon as he arrived here, the emperor's face became even colder.

The witness fell to his knees with a thud, "Your Majesty...Your Majesty...I pay my respects to Your Majesty...Your Majesty..."

Everyone looked at him unfriendly.

This witness can't even speak clearly, and he still comes to testify?

Lin Xilan brought him to His Majesty, she is seeking death!

really.

The emperor was furious.

"Princess Regent, this is what you call a witness!"

Lin Xilan said calmly, "Yes, Your Majesty, this man will definitely prove Jiang Mingzhu's crime!"

The emperor looked at Lin Xilan with some doubts, and heard the other party say: "Your Majesty, Princess Mingzhu needs money to hire someone to kill me. She is looking for the Shadow Pavilion, which is the most expensive in the industry. She certainly doesn't dare to take such a large amount of money directly from the warehouse of the princess's mansion..."

"After all, the one who manages the money is the princess. If we take out so much money at once, the princess will definitely find out. She loves her daughter like her life and will definitely not want her daughter to do such a stupid thing!"

This is true.

——If the eldest princess knew that her daughter would do such a thing.

She would have locked him up and taught him a lesson long ago!

but.

Why did Lin Xilan say this?

Could it be...

Princess Mingzhu's face suddenly turned pale, because she already knew what Lin Xilan would say next!

as predicted.

Lin Xilan continued, "So, my sister-in-law thought that if Princess Mingzhu wanted to hire someone to kill someone, she would probably sell her personal belongings and then hire a killer after getting the money."

"So, I checked all the pawnshops in the capital, and finally found the one the princess had been to!"

"According to what the shopkeeper said, Princess Mingzhu used some of the treasures she had collected for many years to pawn for thirty thousand taels. No one knows where the thirty thousand taels were spent. But there is no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. Am I right, Your Majesty?"

Jiang Mingzhu's face turned pale.

She never expected that Lin Xilan would even think of this.

"I, I have never been to that pawn shop, let alone sold any treasures! Lin Xilan, you are slandering me!"

slander?

Lin Xilan smiled and said nothing.

The witness kneeling on the ground, the pawnshop owner, said angrily, "Princess, it's fine that you've implicated me, but how can you deny it? When you came to pawn your things, most of these jewelry and jades were royal, and some were even engraved with the seal of your princess's mansion. I dare not lie about this!"

The shopkeeper was afraid that Princess Mingzhu's affairs would affect him, and he was so anxious that he stopped stuttering.

He pointed at Princess Mingzhu angrily.

then.

Take out the things you brought one by one.

All those rare treasures, pearls, agates, precious necklaces and the like were spread out in front of everyone.

Before everyone had time to react, the shopkeeper randomly took out one or two treasures from the collection.

then.

The mark belonging to the Princess's Mansion suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

There was complete silence for a moment.

Lin Xilan said in a cold voice: "The time when your maid went to the pawnshop was just a few days before I was assassinated. I was always traveling in the capital, so it was difficult for the assassin to find an opportunity. The only exception was the time at Nanshan Villa."

"Nanshan Villa is a summer resort, close to the deep forest and far away from the downtown. I went there because the Second Prince challenged me to a poetry contest. But the Second Prince wanted to compete with me just to vent his anger on you, Princess Mingzhu!"

"Then, can I infer that you knew I would go to Nanshan Villa, so you hired a killer in advance? You hurt me, but why did you implicate the Regent as well? Isn't he the one you love the most?"

Do not!

She didn't!

She didn't hire anyone to kill Beichen Yuan!

How could she possibly find someone to kill the person she loved the most...

Princess Mingzhu wanted to explain, but she was speechless because if she did, it would be tantamount to directly admitting that she was connected with the killer!

Of course.

Jiang Mingzhu’s intention must be to kill Lin Xilan, not Beichen Yuan.

but--

Who made the leader of the Shadow Pavilion so kind that he had to test the relationship between Beichen Yuan and Lin Xilan? And the reason for all this was only known to Xiao Wuchen!

"I, I didn't! I didn't hire anyone to kill Lin Xilan, and I would never hire anyone to kill the emperor's uncle. I went to the pawnshop, but I was short of money at the moment..." Jiang Mingzhu was obviously panicked and confused. She had started to speak incoherently, and her words were no longer logical.

Lin Xilan smiled.

"My princess, what you said is very good. I was wronged before, but now it has become that you are short of money. Then may I ask why you are short of money? Where did you spend the 20,000 taels of silver? It is impossible that you took it back to fill the princess's private treasury, right?"

After Lin Xilan said this, the eldest princess's expression became even uglier.

The noise of people's discussions was like a mountain, weighing down her so much that she couldn't breathe.

The eldest princess clenched her fingers.

An ominous feeling grew in my heart.

but.

For my precious daughter.

But she still wanted to say: "Lin Xilan, everything you said is just your one-sided story. Even if it is true, so what? Maybe Mingzhu was short of pocket money for a while, so she went to the pawn shop to exchange her belongings for gold, that's all. How can you prove that she hired someone to kill someone?"

Unless Lin Xilan can really find the people from the Shadow Pavilion and confront them.

otherwise!

Everything is just a mirage!

Lin Xilan also knew this, which was why he did not hesitate to put himself in danger to lure Xiao Wuchen out, using threats and inducements!

Xiao Wuchen was unwilling to violate the ethics of a killer.

but……

But it also gave her a reminder, allowing her to follow the clues and find the pawnshop owner!

"The princess is right. If you insist on not confessing, I can do nothing about it. However, Princess Mingzhu can't escape today! Because I have another witness here!!"

Lin Xilan curled her lips and suddenly clapped her hands.

Then I saw two other people being thrown in.

The two men were tied up tightly, like puppets unable to move, at the mercy of others.

Their eyes also revealed helplessness and fear, and their bodies were shaking constantly.

The two people look exactly like the current Princess Mingzhu.

"My Lord, do you recognize these two people?"
