Hearing Lin Mengya's words, Ming Yue's expression changed slightly.
Lin Mengya's security was too strict, so the things in the courtyard were put in during the chaos today.
Moreover, she was afraid that they would attract too much attention, so she did not wrap them in waterproof paper.
Unexpectedly, this became a breakthrough for Lin Mengya.
"That's right. If you don't believe me, you can dig the soil and have a look."
Qinghu understood what Lin Mengya meant and immediately said.
He and Xiaoyu were the ones who took care of the chrysanthemums in Liuxin Courtyard.
Except for today, they would take care of the chrysanthemums carefully every day, so that no one could take advantage of them.
The Queen nodded slightly, but remained silent, so that no one could figure out what she was thinking.
"First, if I had the intention to murder the Crown Prince, I would have kept the talisman safe, right? The paper would have rotted if I poured water on it. Don't tell me I just want to be discovered by others on purpose? "
Many people agreed with Lin Mengya's words.
She was right. Who didn't want to hide something like plotting against the royal family?
It was indeed strange that they could be found out so openly.
"Do you think you can get away with this? Maybe you saw the Queen and the Crown Prince and came up with a plan to murder them. Your Highness, I heard that there is a kind of spell in the southwest barren land that can harm people. The victims only need to walk in front of the talisman to fall into the trap. "
Ming Yue seized the opportunity, wanting to add insult to injury.
But Lin Mengya just smiled and said calmly, "You're right, Your Highness.
"You're right, Your Highness. However, I didn't know that Her Majesty the Queen and the Crown Prince were here. If you said so, whoever instigated the Queen and the Crown Prince to come here is on my side, right? "
"You! You're twisting words and forcing logic! "
Ming Yue suddenly realized that she had said something wrong, because she was the one who instigated the Crown Prince and the Queen to come here.
If she hadn't mentioned it in front of the Queen, the flowers in Lin Mengya's courtyard would be the best in the capital city.
She also said a lot to provoke the Queen, so that the Queen and the Crown Prince would not come to Prince Yu's banquet.
"Secondly, just like what Princess Ming Yue said, I wanted to kill Her Majesty the Empress and the Crown Prince on a whim. But just now, I was in the room, helping Aunt Hua deal with Madame Wang. Don't tell me I know how to clone myself? Ever since the Empress and the Crown Prince came to this courtyard, I've never been to the place where the talisman was found. Furthermore, my maids were all in the room and had never come out. Empress, please understand. Tonight, except for the servants in my mansion, everyone else is wearing the same uniform. If my maid wanted to take advantage of the chaos to do something, there would be witnesses, right? They were so eye-catching. Could it be that everyone was blind and deaf at that moment? "
This was the brilliance of Lin Mengya. Tonight, except for the servants brought by each family, everyone wore the same green and gray clothes.
She and the servants in Long Tianhao's courtyard could only wear white or pure white clothes.
Moreover, the people who were arranged to serve in the two courtyards were all people they trusted.
Those from the Outer Court were not allowed to enter the Inner Court.
Those from the Inner Court were also not allowed to have any contact with those from the Outer Court.
If there was any handover, it had to be double checked by Steward Deng and Lin Kui.
Therefore, as soon as Lin Mengya said this, someone immediately nodded and said, "You're right, Princess.
I was standing beside you just now, and I didn't see any servants in the mansion getting close to the chrysanthemums. I think it must be done by someone else. "
Lin Mengya looked in the direction of the person. She was dressed like a daughter of a rich family.
However, she had been wearing a mask. Lin Mengya couldn't see her face clearly, and her voice was a little low. She must not want to be recognized.
Lin Mengya nodded slightly as a greeting.
The masked woman also nodded and hid in the crowd.
"There are many suspicious points in this matter."
After a long while, the Empress said this.
Lin Mengya secretly felt that it was a little tricky. The Empress was indeed a scheming and astute person. She had said so much, but the Empress still refused to answer.
"However, this matter is related to the royal family, and it was found in your courtyard. You also have a responsibility to help us find the real murderer, right? "
The Empress's words made Lin Mengya feel a little difficult.
If she said yes, the Empress might take her away in the name of helping to investigate the case, and then she could do more tricks.
If she said no, it would only make the Empress be accused of being guilty.
At that time, she would not be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
"The Empress is right. So from now on, I will put the Princess under house arrest and wait for the investigation of mother and the Crown Prince at any time. It is related to the safety of the royal family, and I am responsible for it. "
His voice was low and deep, with a hint of indifference.
Long Tianhao's tall and slender figure appeared in everyone's sight.
He walked over calmly, step by step.
He had an indomitable spirit, as if as long as he was there, Lin Mengya didn't have to worry about anything.
He was wearing a black robe, which was plain and simple, but on him, it rendered a different kind of noble.
When the Empress looked at Long Tianhao coldly, there was a deep jealousy buried deep in her heart.
Why did such an excellent son crawl out of that bitch's belly?
Why was Long Tianhao the only one who resembled his father the most?
Therefore, Long Tianhao must die!
"Your son pays his respects to mother. Mother, please don't be angry. Your son is guilty of such a thing."
In front of outsiders, the Empress had to be fair.
If it was known that she favored the son of the legitimate wife, it would cause criticism.
She slightly eased her expression, raised her hand and said,
"Well, you have always been close to the Crown Prince, and I also believe that you will not have such a terrible idea. However, I must take your princess away with me. It is related to the Crown Prince, and I can't tolerate it. "
It seemed that the Empress had to use Lin Mengya as a warning.
However, Long Tianhao, who usually gave in, stood firmly in front of Lin Mengya at this moment.
"Mother, if you don't trust me, I will ask to go with the Princess to help with the investigation."
Even the Queen did not expect that Long Tianhao would not budge an inch.
Looking at his determined eyes, the Empress slightly clenched her hands.
Just when she was about to agree, she heard Lin Mengya say,
"Wait! Your Majesty, the Prince is the heir of the Emperor, and also the pillar of the country. If he is taken away with me, it is inevitable that some people will deliberately slander him. How about this? Today, the governor of the capital city and the commander of the imperial guards are here, so let's get to the bottom of it tonight! "
Lin Mengya's words made the Empress, Concubine De, and Long Tianhao slightly change their expressions.
The Empress did not expect that Lin Mengya was still making a last-ditch struggle at this point.
"Okay, then I will do as you say. However, do you have any ideas? "
The Empress's eyes were filled with a biting coldness.
Lin Mengya's proposal was tantamount to courting death.
Want to find out? It was not that easy. If she could not find out, she would have to leave with the Empress obediently.
"Ya 'er, you …"
Concubine De was a little anxious. All these things were aimed at Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao.
As their mother, how could she not be worried!
"I just took a look at the cinnabar on the talisman, and it is a little strange. I happen to have something here that can predict that the cinnabar will turn red. Those who framed me, more or less, will have this cinnabar on their hands or on their clothes. I will find out as long as I test it. Your Majesty, do you think this method is feasible? "
Lin Mengya's words made the Empress fall into deep thought.
After a long while, she finally nodded.
In Princess Ming Yue's eyes, there was a look of panic and panic.
She was supposed to hide in the background and watch the show.
If not for the fact that she was eager to prove Lin Mengya guilty, she would not have jumped out to blame Lin Mengya.
What should she do? If Lin Mengya really found out, she would be implicated.
Jiang Ruqin, who was in the crowd, was also a little anxious.
Beside her, the little girl's face was ashen.
Since Lin Mengya went to Mount Lingju to hunt, she had been thinking of ways to sneak into Liuxin Courtyard.
She did not expect that Lin Mengya would ask Aunt Jinyue to keep watch.
Jinyue had been keeping a tight watch on Liuxin Courtyard all day long, so Lin Mengya had no chance to make a move.
Looking at Lin Mengya's confident look, Lin Mengya was afraid that the bitch really had a way to find out.
"Okay, then come and do it. Someone, invite the governor of the capital city and the commander of the imperial guards to come and do the test."
"Yes."
Lin Mengya's palms were already full of sweat.
Qinghu took advantage of the moment when she was not paying attention and came up behind her.
"Lass, do you really have a way?"
Lin Mengya hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"There is no such thing in the world. I can only tell who is stained with cinnabar. Later, you and Xiaoyu will act according to my eyes. "
Qinghu never doubted Lin Mengya's words. Since she said she could tell, she must be able to.
Her superbrain radar could scan for minute amounts of poison. If she focused, she could scan up to 0.0001 milligrams.
She hoped that the amount of cinnabar on that person could reach this amount.
"Lu Yun, the governor of the capital city, and Zhu Aizhi, the deputy commander of the imperial guards, pay our respects to the Empress and Concubine De."
Zhu Aizhi? Lin Mengya subconsciously looked at the name when she heard it.
Sure enough, it was the general who had befriended her in the temporary imperial residence.
She did not expect him to be promoted so quickly.
If he wasn't such an ungrateful person, she would have gained another capable assistant this time.
