"Yes, Your Majesty." As Yun Ruoyue spoke, she quickly walked to the corpse and carefully observed it.
But after looking around, she didn't find anything strange.
Except for the big wound on the head, there were no other wounds on the corpse.
Seeing her dignified face, the Empress said coldly, "Yun Ruoyue, do you see anything?"
Yun Ruoyue slowly stood up and shook her head heavily, "No, Secondary Concubine Lan should have died under this axe!"
After speaking, she looked at Chu Xuanchen worriedly. She was really afraid that he was wronged.
She believed that Xuan Chen wouldn't kill Lan Wu. He absolutely disdained to do such a thing.
The Empress snorted coldly, "Your Majesty, Yun Ruoyue is a doctor. Even she didn't see it. It seems that Lan Wu was indeed killed by this axe. The material evidence is clear. We are all witnesses. So, The Emperor of Li is the real murderer! "
As she spoke, she looked at Chu Xuanchen again and said fiercely, "The Emperor of Li, you are a dignified Qinwang. I didn't expect that you would kill Lan Wu because of a little quarrel. You killed my daughter-in-law so cruelly. It's really a heinous crime! "
Speaking of this, she looked at Hongyuan Emperor again and said with heartache, "Your Majesty, you can't let Lan Wu die in vain. We must give her justice. For the reputation of the imperial family, I implore you to abolish The Emperor of Li's Qinwang title and sentence him to death. Only in this way can you comfort Lan Wu's soul in heaven! "
Yun Ruoyue hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I believe that Xuan Chen will never kill Lan Wu. He just said that he saw a woman who looked like me running here, so he followed. It's obvious that someone pretended to be me to lead him here and then framed him for murder. This is a conspiracy. The real murderer must be someone else. Your Majesty, please investigate! "
Chu Xuanchen also cupped his hands. "Your Majesty, this subject saw that woman clearly at that time. Her clothes and hairstyle were very similar to Ruoyue's. The most important thing is that her face is exactly the same as Ruoyue's. This subject suspects that someone disguised themselves as Ruoyue and led this subject here in order to lure this subject into this trap. Emperor, you must believe this subject! "
Seeing Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue's sincere words, Hongyuan Emperor rolled his eyes.
Before he could train someone to replace Chu Xuanchen as a general, he could not casually deal with Chu Xuanchen.
He had learned his lesson in the Battle of Yanzhou. Now, the Chu Empire still had to rely on Chu Xuanchen to fight. Therefore, he would not kill Chu Xuanchen for the time being.
However, if Lan Wu was really killed by Chu Xuanchen, he would not let him off easily.
Thinking up to here, he said coldly, "Xuan Chen, although you're my nephew, if Lan Wu was indeed killed by you, I'll definitely punish you severely. A country has its laws, and a family has its rules. I won't cover up for you just because you've done meritorious deeds. However, this matter is of great importance and needs to be retried. You're the only suspect now. I'll first strip you of your title of Prince, and then take you to the Imperial Prison. I'll personally try you! "
"Your Majesty …" Hearing this, Yun Ruoyue was shocked.
"Yue'er, don't worry. I didn't kill her. I believe that the Emperor will clear my name!" Chu Xuanchen interrupted Yun Ruoyue.
Yun Ruoyue nodded firmly. "Yes, Xuan Chen, I believe you. Don't worry, I'll find a way to find out the real murderer and clear your name! "
"Well, you don't have to worry. I didn't kill anyone, so I'll be fine." Chu Xuanchen said and patted Yun Ruoyue's shoulder comfortingly.
At this time, Hongyuan Emperor said, "Someone, take The Emperor of Li to the Imperial Prison and lock him up temporarily."
