Chapter 32: Encountering Taoyuan (4)

"Aren't you planning to tell the truth?" the eldest princess said, cutting off a full blooming and beautiful chrysanthemum.

Fang Wan was so scared that she shivered and lowered her head: "I, I... Actually, I know that the butterfly was fed medicine. The merchant told me that Wushui Butterfly died after the journey, and feeding medicine could extend the lifespan of several days. I thought to myself that as long as I was sent to His Majesty alive, it would be fine. If I die later, it would be caused by improper breeding of the people in the palace, and it had nothing to do with me. Unexpectedly, Xie Changyan came out halfway... and the butterfly died early. I, I have no choice but to say that it was her who killed me..."

The eldest princess said leisurely: "It seems that you still don't know where you are wrong."

Fang Wan was stunned.

"It is either feeding medicine to butterflies or placing blame on Xie Changyan when the opportunity is not good. They are all means. If you want to compete for the position of queen, you naturally need to use means."

Fang Wan bit her lip: "Then, that's the method I used... too, too clumsy?"

The eldest princess looked at her with a smile, making her feel cold.

"The methods are not bad, but people are too self-righteous."

Fang Wan shook again.

"If you want to frame it, you have to do it strictly so that Xie Changyan Jue has no chance of turning over. Why don't you tell me about the medicine feeding in advance? Why don't you remedy it afterwards? The butterfly is in the hands of Huiwei, and you should destroy the body. How can you let her hand it to His Majesty? Do you think there is no one in the palace, and can't you find out that the butterfly has been fed the medicine?"

Every time the eldest princess said, Fang Wan's face turned paler: "I, I...I dare not. If I really destroy the corpse, your Majesty will ask for a butterfly, but she can't take it out... I'm worried that Your Majesty will take it on her because of this..."

When the eldest princess heard this, her expression slowed down and she put down the silver cutter in her hand: "You are quite conscientious."

Fang Wan kowtowed quickly: "Since His Highness's last instructions, Fang Wan has always thought about the princess first and dared not let her be implicated. But the princess is chivalrous and takes the initiative to stand up for me when she sees me wronged. So, I, I..."

The eldest princess stared at Fang Wan, as if she was looking at her, and seemed to be suspicious of her.

"Your Highness, what should I do now?" Fang Wan knelt down and moved to the edge of her skirt, grabbed the hem of her skirt, her face full of tears, "Your Majesty knows the truth and makes Mr. Ruyi blame him, he must be angry with me. I, I, do I have a chance?"

The eldest princess kicked her lightly: "Next time I dare to hide something..."

"Wanwan will never make this mistake again. You must tell your highness everything in detail!" Fang Wan immediately swore to the sky.

The eldest princess gave up and nodded leisurely, "Of course there are still opportunities. The more you are loved by Your Majesty, the more restless the five major families will be. Wait..."

Ding Da is dead.

He committed suicide. He committed suicide with a flesh-cutting knife, and blood dripped from the couch continuously.

Xie Changyan recognized his face and remembered that he saw him killing a dog in the courtyard. He pinched the dog's mouth and poured a pot of wine. After the dog got drunk, he cut off the dog's neck while crying.

That was the first time Xie Changyan witnessed a dog slaughter, so he remembered it very clearly. At that time, he used this flesh-cutting knife.

Xie Changyan turned around and ran out of the cottage and vomited. "Next time, there is no need to..." Halfway through, he remembered the historical arguments that Feng Xiaoya said, "Forget it, let's take a look." It can be regarded as seeing the scene of suicide fearing guilt.

Meng Buli still stood quietly on the side with a large rattan like a turtle shell on his back.

"Who is the Lord Messenger?"

Meng Buli shook his head.

Xie Changyan held the willow tree and wiped his mouth that hadn't spit out anything, and he was full of thoughts.

The matter of Futu was not a big deal, but someone wanted to delay her entering the palace. But now that the murderer was killed, it became serious all of a sudden. In other words, the other party did not dare to kill, and could do anything at any time.

As a result, the incident did not end there, but became increasingly dangerous.

A chef can cut a knife in the car, and naturally he can add some poison to the meal.

When Xie Changyan thought of this, his face turned pale. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a group of maids passing by with a sad face.

When a little maid saw her, she immediately knelt down: "Girl, forgive me! Please don't drive me away!"

The other servants and maids followed suit and immediately knelt down: "Yes, please don't drive us away..."

Xie Changyan was surprised: "What is this to do?"

An old woman in charge of custody them said, "Your Majesty learned about Ding Da's incident and ordered all the servants and maids in Zhizhi's residence to be replaced." After that, he turned his head and scolded the maids, "Why are you crying? Why have you been going? You have so many eyes, but you didn't see Ding Da tampering in the carriage and still have the face to plead with mercy?"

The servants and maids felt extremely wronged, and Xie Changyan also felt wronged for them. He wanted to plead for mercy, but after seeing Zheng, he stopped. Zhizhi lived in the house and not only her, but also her mother. It would be fine if she was in danger, but what if she was implicated in her mother? What if she used her mother to threaten her? This place must be absolutely safe.

Xie Changyan waved his hand, and the old woman continued to escort the group of people away.

Zheng came over and watched the people leave cryingly, with a serious expression: "Who is so deliberate to harm my son?"

"I'm dead and you can make a profit." Xie Changyan's pupils turned from shallow to thickening. She suddenly thought of a solution. She immediately waved to Meng Buli, signaling him to go to the study with her.

After arriving at the study, Xie Changyan immediately picked up his pen and started drawing. He drew a few strokes, pondered for a while, and then drew a few strokes to see Meng Buli.

Meng Buli felt shivering in her heart by her eyes.

After a stick of incense, Xie Changyan finally finished drawing and signaled him to come and read it.

Meng Buli saw that on the drawing paper was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance but his characteristics were drawn-out-

The left eye is larger than the right eye, the earlobes are thick, the hair is sparse, and the body is thin like a slightly bent bamboo pole.

A note was also marked next to it: "This person is about five feet and five minutes tall, weighs about one hundred and twenty, and his chin is extremely smooth, with few beards or no beards, and he is suspected to be a eunuch."

Meng Buli looked at Xie Changyan in surprise.

“Recognize it?”

Meng Buli nodded.

Xie Changyan did not expect him to speak, so he analyzed himself: "This person was the one who was monitoring us with a cart of oranges that day. Ding Da was silenced, but he should still be alive. As long as he could find him, he could also follow the clues and find out the mastermind behind the scenes. Your Majesty cleared Zhizhiju, which was equivalent to pulling out the other party's eyeliner by my side. At this time, instead of looking for a needle in a haystack, I might as well make bait, let them see the opportunity and make moves. So, for the next period of time, I want you to do two things. One is to send someone to protect my mother's safety; the other is to cooperate with me to go out and lead the snake out of the hole."

Meng Buli was stunned.

"If you can't do it, let the senior brother change the person who can do it."

Meng Buli's face turned solemn, as if he was insulted.

Xie Changyan looked at him and smiled: "See you tomorrow."
