Chapter 184 Detaining the Sixth Prince

Jun Shengjie's six-cousin help me is too fatal to Jun Tingyan!
When Emperor Yongqing heard about this, he rushed to the scene together with the queen. The concubine who had been frightened before immediately fell to her knees in front of Emperor Yongqing, crying and complaining about the evil deeds of the Junting Banquet.

In the end, she did not forget to pour dirty water on Jun Tingyan: "Your Majesty, I heard with my own ears that Prince Qi's son said that my sixth cousin saved me. This matter is of great importance, and I dare not hide it."

Before Emperor Yongqing could speak, the queen yelled angrily: "Presumptuous! What nonsense!"

Emperor Yongqing hurriedly appeased the queen: "Queen, don't be so angry, I will make decisions for the emperor." After he finished speaking, he helped the queen to take her seat.

The queen clenched her hands into fists, as if she was worried about something.

Emperor Yongqing stepped forward to look down at the concubine, and said in a deep voice: "Concubine Min, you just said that the son of Prince Qi slandered the sixth prince before he died?"

Concubine Min suddenly stopped talking. What Emperor Yongqing said was slander, as if he defined the matter directly. If she said that the sixth prince was related to the case of poisoning the fourth prince, it would be against the meaning of Emperor Yongqing.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, although they already knew that Emperor Yongqing was very conniving towards the sixth prince, but now he even tolerated the poisoning of the prince, which is amazing.

What kind of ecstasy soup is this empress pouring into His Majesty!
Shen Sitang was also surprised by this, after all, Prince Qi's son was imprisoned directly before, but at the Junting Banquet, a light slander was enough, and Emperor Yongqing didn't mean to go into it at all.

She subconsciously looked at Jun Ting Yan, but saw that Jun Ting Yan frowned slightly, as if she had encountered a difficult problem.

She was puzzled, and immediately looked away, thinking hard.

Emperor Yongqing spoke again: "Concubine Min, why are you silent? I'm asking you, did Prince Qi's son slander the sixth prince?"

Concubine Min didn't hesitate this time, and immediately replied: "Yes, I did hear that Prince Qi's son slandered the sixth prince before he died."

Emperor Yongqing snorted and looked at Prince Qi angrily: "Prince Qi, why did your son do this? Why did you enter the capital this time, and when did you contact the Yaozu!"

Prince Qi knelt on the ground with a plop: "Brother Huang, there are no ministers!"

"Still saying no! Isn't your son killed by the Yaozu?"

Prince Qi burst into tears: "Brother Huang, Sheng Jie was indeed murdered to silence him, but he definitely did not collude with the monster clan. There must be some misunderstanding in this matter. Someone wanted to frame my younger brother, and I asked my younger brother to make the decision for my younger brother." , seek justice for Shengjie!"

Emperor Yongqing narrowed his eyes, and after a while he looked at Mu Huaichuan and Shen Sitang: "You two, have you found anything?"

Mu Huaichuan hurriedly replied: "Responding to Your Majesty's words, Deputy Envoy Shen found out that His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince died of an extremely rare poison, and initially suspected that it was the venom of a snake demon, but there was no poison in the wine that the Fourth Prince drank, and there was no poison in the dishes. No, I don’t know how the other party used the poison for the time being. As for Prince Qi’s son, Beizhi and Deputy Envoy Shen had talked with him before, and he behaved quite normally at that time. After Beizhi and Deputy Envoy Shen left, his emotions suddenly changed. He became agitated, and finally covered his neck, as if poisoned."

Emperor Yongqing sneered after hearing this: "That is to say, you didn't find any useful clues?"

Mu Huaichuan didn't pick up on it for a while, since the last time Emperor Yongqing wanted to give them a marriage and was disturbed by Chen Yue'an, Emperor Yongqing's attitude towards Mu Huaichuan was not the same as before.

Fortunately, Mu Huaichuan never expected that he could get some affection from this uncle, so he didn't feel disappointed.

Shen Sitang glanced at Mu Huaichuan, and said at the right time: "If you go back to His Majesty, you won't get nothing."

"Oh?" Emperor Yongqing looked at her and asked in a deep voice, "Let's hear it."

Shen Sitang said neither humble nor overbearing: "The death of Prince Qi's son can just prove that the other party needs to use a medium to poison people to death, and can control the strength of the poison, so the matter of Prince Qi's son poisoning the fourth prince is not so serious." Absolutely, the inferior position is more inclined, Prince Qi's son is just a pawn, and the real murderer wants to pour dirty water on innocent people through Prince Qi's son."

Emperor Yongqing's eyebrows moved slightly, Mu Huaichuan heaved a sigh of relief, and the corners of Jun Tingyan's mouth curled up slightly.

This is a loophole, but it was discovered by Shen Sitang.

Originally, the other party's plan was perfect, blaming Prince Qi's son for the death of the fourth prince, and then killing Prince Qi's son to silence him, and discrediting the royal banquet through his last words.

But they forgot that Prince Qi's son was imprisoned in the side hall without water or food. How could he be poisoned?As long as they let Prince Qi's son die unexpectedly, they can just prove that the wine that Prince Qi's son gave to the fourth prince is all right. Not poisonous.

In this way, the suspicion of Prince Qi's son was greatly reduced, so what if he called Juntingyan's name?
Emperor Yongqing was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "Deputy envoy Shen is very reasonable. He is indeed a good investigator of the Inspectorate, but..."

But after saying those two words, Shen Sitang's heart skipped a beat, feeling that something was wrong.

But she also thought about how Emperor Yongqing defended the Junting Banquet. Now that she has alleviated the suspicion of the Junting Banquet, Emperor Yongqing should be happy.

As soon as she thought about it, she heard Emperor Yongqing change the subject and said: "Shen Sitang, based on your relationship with the sixth prince, should I believe what you say?"

Shen Sitang's thoughts sank, and he suddenly couldn't understand Emperor Yongqing. Wasn't he protecting the Imperial Court Banquet?Why do you say such things?Didn't his words overturn her remarks, making her finally get rid of Jun Tingyan's accusation into complicity and exonerate him?
At this time, Prince Jun Shaoheng stepped forward and said: "Father, this matter is of great importance, and the truth must be found out. According to Erchen, all suspects should be controlled now, including Erchen." minister!"

Shen Sitang looked at the prince sharply. The prince's words meant that all suspicious people at the scene, including him, should be locked up, so naturally the royal banquet was also included.

"His Majesty…"

"My son thinks what the prince said is very true."

Shen Sitang was about to speak, but was interrupted by Jun Tingyan's words, she turned to look at Jun Tingyan, he didn't look at her, but looked ahead with a calm expression.

Emperor Yongqing didn't listen to Shen Sitang's words at all, nodded his head, and said in a deep voice: "Since the crown prince and the emperor have said so, I will follow you, come here, let everyone involved in this case Keep it in custody, and no one is allowed to intercede for it."

As soon as Emperor Yongqing finished speaking, a group of guards rushed in and locked Jun Tingyan and others into the side hall. This palace was also surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.
