Zhuang Yuyan said: "There are two scars on her neck, one deep and one shallow. The deep one has the marks facing downwards, and the shallow one has the marks facing upwards."

Princess Xiangnan looked at it carefully: "It's true. But what does this mean?"

Zhuang Yuyan said: "If a person is hung on the beam, the scar on the neck must be upward, but why, the deep scar is downward?"

Princess Xiangnan looked carefully again: "You mean, someone strangled her with a rope first, and the wounds of strangling her went down, and then hung her body on the beam, as if she had hanged herself, Because she was dead by then, the upward scar was lighter in color."

A panicked look flashed across Princess Lu's face: "What kind of scars are deep and shallow, up and down, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Princess Xiangnan looked at her meaningfully, but said nothing.

Zhuang Yuyan looked at Ruan Ruan's fingers carefully again.She raised her head and said to Princess Xiangnan: "Please come and see here again."

Princess Xiangnan also took a closer look and said, "There are no scars on her fingers."

Zhuang Yuyan said, "Please take a look at her nails."

Princess Xiang Nan took a closer look, and was shocked: "There are threads in the nails!"

Zhuang Yuyan said: "This cloth is very small. If you don't look carefully, it is not obvious. It must have been grabbed from the murderer when Ruan Ruan was dying. She glanced at Princess Xiangnan: "Look at this cloth. silk color. "

Princess Xiangnan looked at it again: "Although it is not obvious, it can be seen that it is blue."

Zhuang Yuyan said: "This kind of blue is generally the color of the cloth used to make clothes for the servants. As far as I know, only indigo cloth is this color. May I ask, Your Highness, why would you wear clothes made of this kind of cloth?" ?'

Princess Lu faltered for a long time, then said: "It may also be the prince's servant."

Zhuang Yuyan said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince wore what color clothes last night. You can tell just by asking. He only brought He Wei with you last night. You can also ask what color clothes He Wei wore. But, Princess Lu, How do you explain these three questions? First, why didn’t Ruan Ruan call for help? Or, why did she call for help, but no one heard her? Second, how do you explain the scar on her neck? Third, Why is the thread in her nails this color?"

Princess Lu shouted angrily: "What explanation? Explain what!"

Zhuang Yuyan said: "You don't need to explain to me, but how are you going to face the emperor?"

Princess Lu immediately stopped talking.

Princess Xiangnan said: "Let's stop arguing here, let's play back according to the facts."

After listening to the words of Princess Xiangnan, the emperor asked the Ninth Prince: "What did you wear last night?"

He Wei stepped forward immediately: "The moon white brocade robe His Royal Highness wore last night, I was wearing a blue cotton robe. You can send someone to the Prince's Mansion to ask about this. Many people have seen it."

The emperor looked at Prince Lu: "What do you think of these three questions?"

Prince Lu immediately said: "We misunderstood, since that's the case, let's go back and investigate again, we must seek justice for Ruan Ruan."

The emperor said: "In this case, you go down first, and I will inform Jing Zhaoyin to help."

Prince Lu and Princess Lu immediately left with Ruan Ruan's body.

The emperor looked at the eighth prince: "What do you say?"

The eighth prince knelt down immediately: "Father, this matter really has nothing to do with me. I really didn't ask His Royal Highness, I don't know anything."

The emperor said, "Go down."

The eighth prince hurried away as if he had received an amnesty.
