"What do you an by ’can’t be ruled out’?" Qi Jingyi protested, "If that’s the case, then Ruxin... Madam Ruyi shouldn’t be treating anyone. Whatever happens, how many people die wouldn’t be her responsibility..."
"Old Eight..."
"Brother Crown Prince, am I wrong?" Qi Jingyi sneered slightly, "I believe, for sure, so scoundrel is jealous, jealous of Madam Ruyi’s talents and the rewards she received from the Emperor, so they’re setting traps..."
"I also think that’s how it is." Qi Jingrong surprisingly nodded, "Classic case of jealousy."
Qi Jingyi glanced at his tenth brother in surprise, but quickly cald down. Now was not the ti to ask when he changed his opinion about Xinxin.
"Eighth Brother, Tenth Brother." Prince Han, Qi Jinghao, glanced at his two brothers, "We’re here to oversee the investigation. Although I also trust Madam Ruyi, just talking won’t suffice; we need evidence."
Qi Jingyi and Qi Jingrong had to admit he was right.
"Then let’s find evidence." Qi Jingyi looked towards Lord Jiang, "Since the murderer took action, there must be clues left behind. Once the murderer is found, then Xin... Madam Ruyi will naturally be cleared..."
"I can testify that Madam Ruyi’s dicine is fine." At this mont, soone entered; it was Zheng Xianrou, "Because I was the first to be cured by her dicine."
"I can also testify." Jiang Fangfei, who walked in alongside Zheng Xianrou, nodded, "Moreover, Madam Ruyi didn’t even have a motive to kill Wang Zhengzheng..."
"That’s not necessarily true. Back in the Imperial Garden, she did scare Zhengzheng with poison..." The County Princess of Anning imdiately shook her head, "Such a malicious person..."
"Wei Ran and Shen Jiayin were also there at the ti. Shouldn’t we ask them what exactly happened?" Jiang Fangfei sneered.
"You..." The County Princess of Anning was at a loss for words. Although she was an elder, she was of the sa level as this little girl, and furthermore, this girl was closer to the Empress Dowager, so it was hard for her to confront her.
Yang Ruxin was moved, grateful that she hadn’t befriended the wrong people.
"Alright." The Crown Prince rubbed his temples, "This matter can’t be settled by just your words; evidence is required..." he said, looking at Yang Ruxin. "Rest assured, I will investigate thoroughly."
"Thank you, Crown Prince." Yang Ruxin nodded in respect.
It was getting late, and the Imperial Physician and the coroner were to conduct another autopsy. Thus, Yang Ruxin still had to be detained.
Originally, the Crown Prince intended to open a back door for her, and even the County Princess Fangfei was furious, but she didn’t want to make things difficult for everyone. After all, the rule was that she’s a suspect and must be detained.
There was nothing to fear about prison, especially with so many people speaking to Lord Jiang on her behalf, so she didn’t mind at all.
"Xinxin, don’t worry. I’ll definitely find the murderer." Gu Qingheng promised Yang Ruxin with a determined look.
"Yes." Yang Ruxin nodded, "But you’d better find a way to let see the body." She felt there must be sothing overlooked in the autopsy. From watching those detective TV shows and movies, the phrase commonly used was: the body can speak.
Although the forensic techniques of this era weren’t too bad, they lacked advanced instrunts for assistance, so omissions were normal.
Even though she didn’t understand autopsies, she had special abilities, and without seeing it for herself, she just couldn’t be content.
