Chapter three hundred and fortieth into the urn

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a decree, please return to Yangxin Palace as soon as possible."

Why did Nan Muchen do things so repeatedly today? Su Mumu had a premonition that something was about to happen.

"Order the deacon in charge to come here to supervise this matter."

One of the guards agreed and soon found the deacon in charge.

"Empress..."

Baili Ruyue was about to speak when she was stopped and interrupted by Su Mumu's gesture.

"Baili Ruyue, this matter has yet to be decided. We can only discuss how to uphold justice for you after the director in charge finds out the truth. Now please be patient, Concubine Ru. I will send additional manpower to protect the safety of the Jade Palace.

.”

There is no doubt that Su Mumu left the scene of the crime neatly. Seeing Su Mumu leaving in a hurry, Baili Ruyue could no longer hold on and could only return to the Jade Palace to wait for news.

"The Queen has arrived."

There was an eunuch reporting outside the palace, and Su Mumu, who returned to the Yangxin Palace with Forsythia, felt a little puzzled.

"The emperor has summoned me to return to the Yangxin Palace as soon as possible. Why?"

Nan Muchen, whose face was clouded, was pacing back and forth in the hall, frowning and sighing from time to time. Seeing that Su Mumu had returned, there was no joy on his face.

"Does your Majesty know that the envoy from Xihe was assassinated in Liulicai?"

Su Mumu was surprised when Nan Muchen suddenly asked a question. It was you, Nan Muchen, who didn't allow Gale to tell him the truth, but now you have invited me back to the palace to ask me about this matter. Was Nan Muchen's head caught in the door?

.

"I know, but..."

Before Su Mumu could continue, a man wearing Xihe clothes interrupted.

"Did the Queen ever leave the Yangxin Hall between Chen Shi and Si Shi?"

Guessing that this person might be an official accompanying the envoy from Xihe, Su Mumu looked at this person for a few times. He had a wretched temperament, twinkling eyes, a hollow body, and a voice with no confidence. At first glance, he looked like a drunkard.

It was hard to offend the Xihe officials casually, so Su Mumu, who was frank and had nothing to hide, admitted it directly.

"I did leave the Yangxin Hall during this period. At that time, I happened to see two palace ladies flying a kite. Because the kite broke, I ordered them to get another kite and fly it to me.

"

After listening to Su Mumu's words, the Xihe official turned around and asked Nan Muchen.

"Your Majesty, please call the two maids mentioned by the Queen to come and collect evidence."

As soon as the Xihe official finished speaking, Su Mumu knew that she had been set up.

"No, Your Majesty, according to the evidence provided by the eunuchs of the Jade Palace, the two maids were drowned to death in the Golden Water River by the two nuns in the Yunxiao Palace."

As soon as Su Mumu's words came out, the Xihe officials' eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, the envoy from Xihe came to your country for the sake of eternal reconciliation between the two countries. However, he was assassinated in the palace and died in a foreign land. Please give justice to the envoy from Xihe."

He was in a dilemma. The more he sought evidence, the more suspicions pointed at Su Mumu, who had left the palace alone. Looking at Su Mumu who looked calm in the palace, Nan Muchen didn't say a word for a long time.

"Where are those two palace ladies taking orders now?"

Nan Muchen asked in a deep voice, but Su Mumu returned without being humble or arrogant.

"I obeyed the orders of the Jade Palace during my lifetime."

The more questions he asked, the worse it got. Everyone in the palace had always known that the empress and concubine Ru were not getting along, but now they actually admitted that the two maids were taking orders from the Jade Palace. How could this be convincing?

"When did the Queen get so close to the Jade Palace?"

The officials from Xihe listened to Nan Muchen's question and slightly guessed the serious relationship between them, so they raised their ears and listened carefully.

"There are so many people in the Jade Palace, how can I recognize them all? I only found out after the fact that the two of them were from the Jade Palace, and I didn't know it at the time."

Without waiting for another request from the Xihe official, Nan Muchen reached out and handed something to Lu Qi, ordering it to be presented to Su Mumu for inspection.

"Can the Queen recognize this object?"

Lu Qi held it in front of her, and Su Mumu looked at it carefully.

It was the palm-sized Burmese Pear Blossom Pistol that was carefully crafted according to Su Mumu's design. Su Mumu was shocked when he looked at it. When he was kidnapped from a secret passage, the Burmese Rain Pear Blossom Pistol rolled down and disappeared. Suddenly he saw it and knew that this was another

A piece of planted evidence, I can't help but lament that the person I offended must have taken great pains to do so.

"I recognize it. I am the only one in Nanqi who holds this object. However, I don't know where it fell when the secret passage was robbed. Now it has been brought by the Holy Master for me to confirm. I don't know what the purpose is?"

Without Jialan Jiajia, who was guarding the Xihe officials, to stop him, I am afraid that as soon as Su Mumu finished speaking, the Xihe officials would rush up to confront Su Mumu.

Blocked by Jialanjiajie, the officials from Xihe could not break free, but they had no choice but to curse.

"You are in vain to be Queen Nanqi. Your methods are so cruel, causing my envoy from Xihe to die innocently. Your Majesty, you must make the decision for the envoy!"

The evidence is conclusive, and Nan Muchen can no longer argue.

"Take the queen and hand it over to the chief executive for interrogation and verification."

Anyway, I have been framed thoroughly, and I have to be clear even if I die.

"Hold on! Your Majesty, although this Burmese Rain Pear Blossom Pistol belongs to me, I have already said that it was lost when it fell into the secret passage. Why does the Emperor only recognize the object but not the person and still want to arrest me for questioning?"

It seemed that Nan Muchen would not give up until he reached the Yellow River, so Nan Muchen waved his hand to Lu Qi.

"Bring up the evidence."

Lu Qi took the order and picked up a dark green porcelain bottle from the table nearby.

"Queen, do you recognize what this is?"

It's over. Su Mumu just realized this time that it was a frame-up. There was no chance for her to defend herself.

"I recognize it. This is a blood-seeking throat-sealing poison that I personally refined, but..."

Nan Muchen held his forehead and drank as he had a headache.

"That's enough. The envoy from Xihe died after being hit by a poisonous needle containing this poison. Baili Yunxuan, what else do you want to say?"

It turned out to be a deliberate plan, and when Su Mumu looked at Nan Muchen with a sad face, she suddenly felt desolate in her heart.

"Nan Muchen, you have always known me as a person. Don't you even trust me?"

Shaking his head, Nan Muchen dodged Su Mumu's sad eyes with distress.

"Queen, although you are my wife, human life is at stake and the evidence is conclusive. How can I trust you?"

After falling back a few steps, Su Mumu sneered heartbroken. At the critical moment, even the last straw was an illusion. Su Mumu lowered her eyes and shut up, no longer defending.

Following Nan Muchen's instructions, several guards stepped forward to take Su Mumu to the head of the department, with Forsythia following behind with tears in her eyes.

"Forsythia!"

After the general followed him a few steps, he was blocked by Lu Qi.

"The Emperor has decreed that Forsythia japonica is on standby at the Yangxin Hall and is not allowed to leave its post without permission."

The worried Forsythia originally planned to go with the director to take care of her, but the emperor had no choice but to give up. Watching Su Mumu and her group leave the palace, Forsythia wiped away her tears and fell to the edge of the flower bed.
