"Send soone to diagnose her, confirm that there are Gu insects in her body, so I directly used an interrogation thod where I said she nods."
Chu Heng nodded, "Then the credibility of the confession is quite high."
Xiao Tianhao felt assured seeing him say this, "Lord Chu, since it’s confird that Consort Yun is Bai Yao in disguise, can we capture her directly now?"
"You haven’t received any news from the palace?" Chu Heng raised his eyes in doubt.
Xiao Tianhao shook his head, "Not yet."
As soon as he finished speaking, a guard rushed in, "Minister Xiao, new information."
"Give it to , give it to ." Xiao Tianhao raised his eyebrows in surprise and smiled at Chu Heng, "Well, news just arrived in ti."
Chu Heng humd a response, walked to the desk in the interrogation room and sat down, spreading out all the evidence.
Xiao Tianhao quickly opened the secret ssage, scanning the contents rapidly, his brows furrowed tightly, "Lord Chu, is the person in the palace Bai Yao or an impostor?"
It’s understandable why Xiao Tianhao would say this; the person’s face is disfigured, verifying sothing would take a while.
"Have you considered, what if Bai Yao’s face was already ruined?" Chu Heng was reminded by this, and his nerves throbbed, an uneasy feeling erging from within.
Xiao Tianhao understood his point, his eyes widening in worry, "No, it can’t be, can it?"
"Send a ssage to the palace first!" Chu Heng decided imdiately.
Xiao Tianhao no longer concerned himself with anything else; if Bai Yao dared to directly enter the palace, take advantage of the chance to approach Emperor Xuanming, and plant Gu insects, then the entire imperial court would be shaken!
Xiao Tianhao hurried away.
Chu Heng picked up the brush and drew, recalling the appearance of Consort Yun from the palace, paying attention to every detail, and sketching them.
anwhile, he found the guard who accompanied Xiao Tianhao for last night’s mission and ordered, "Bring the dicine retrieved from the post station last night."
The guard responded promptly, and soon two wooden boxes were delivered.
He drew half of the portrait, confirming the eyes, lips, nose bridge, and ears.
Excluding the facial scars, the features suddenly beca clear.
"Lord Chu, the items have been delivered."
The guard placed the items down and stood beside them, waiting for further instructions.
Chu Heng crouched, opened the wooden boxes, and carefully distinguished the dicinal items inside.
Looking further, failing to find any trace of the Lover Gu, Chu Heng furrowed his brow even tighter.
"Send soone to relay a ssage to Minister Xiao." Chu Heng picked up the brush, swiftly penned a secret ssage, and handed it to the guard.
The guard, not understanding why, didn’t ask questions due to professionalism, quickly proceeded to carry out his orders.
Chu Heng then approached Chunqin once more, saying, "We’ve already learned of your swapped identity; if you are innocent, you will eventually be released. Do you want this chance to redeem yourself? You probably don’t want people from Southern Border to harm the King of Huainan, right?"
"The Prince is innocent; you cannot implicate him." Chunqin, who’s been held in the cell for two days, appeared sowhat bedraggled, more delicate. Hearing the na of the King of Huainan made her instantly agitated.
Chu Heng emphasized, "Whether the King of Huainan is innocent or not needs evidence to prove. If you can provide evidence, the King of Huainan naturally won’t be implicated by Bai Yao, the forr Saintess from Southern Border."
"You must understand, Bai Yao has Gu insects at her disposal that can tempt the King of Huainan to err. Without evidence, even if I know he’s innocent, I wouldn’t be able to help him clear his na."
