Chapter 24
  I heard the name Xiao Jiang.

The memory in Ning Muqing's mind was instantly mobilized.

Scenes of hatred also surged into my heart. Xiao Jiang was the only son of the Duke of Zhenguo. He went to the battlefield to kill the enemy at the age of fourteen. He was a great hero who once stood side by side with Chu Lixuan.

This Prince Xiao has great martial arts skills and a dignified appearance, but his personality is extremely bad.

In the past, he liked to tease the original owner the most, and he always let the guards bully her too.

One time in the middle of winter, 'Ning Muqing' was pushed into the lake by his order. 'Ning Muqing' almost drowned, and it took all her strength to finally climb ashore. He ordered his people to push her down again.

At that time, Xiao Jiang was aloof and said with cold eyes, "Aunt Jiahe died of hemorrhage because of your birth. If Rourou hadn't begged me to let you live, I would never have let you live until now."

Anyway, every time he met her, Xiao Jiang would give her a lesson.

Xiao Jiang relied on the fact that he was the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo and had made great military exploits, and did all kinds of evil to 'Ning Muqing'.

Even the other people in the capital followed suit and made fun and pranks whenever they saw 'Ning Muqing'.

As soon as she heard this name, Ning Muqing's mind automatically thought of the humiliation she had suffered, and she felt a surge of resentment in her heart.

"No matter how miserable I am, it won't be your turn to ridicule me. We are both prisoners. It's probably impossible for you to take the opportunity to take revenge."

Ning Muqing asked coldly, "Really?"

The next second, the silver needle was inserted into the keyhole, and the keyhole of the prison was opened instantly.

"Xiao Jiang, people always have to pay for what they have done."

Punishing Xiao Jiang should be treated as a small reward for 'Ning Muqing'.

……

the other side.

Chu Lixuan's face was ashen.

Doctor Xiao also knew that the matter could no longer be concealed, and immediately fell to his knees.

"In the dungeon, Guard Yue interrogated the princess. The princess told us personally that she was also poisoned and had an antidote to suppress/poison in her hand, which deceived everyone.

He also put forward the conditions that the guards of Yue and Miss Tingqin should be punished twice, that I should remove all the guards from the dungeon to Cangwu Zhai, and prepare a clean dress for her. "

"The pale pink Muyun gauze is what I prepared for the princess. Along with the gauze, I personally put it into your room, Your Majesty."

Chu Lixuan stroked the fabric with his fingers. The fabric was as soft as light clouds, carrying the fragrance of the texture of a woman after wearing it, as well as a faint scent of blood.

"Did you do as she asked?"

Doctor Xiao lowered his head even lower and said hurriedly, "The princess said at the time that she was afraid of Miss Qin's revenge and didn't want to come out of the dungeon to see anyone. For the sake of the prince's life, I could only grit my teeth and agree."

"Does this mean that the palace's defenses were completely absent during that period?"

"Yes." Dr. Xiao nodded, frightened.

"When did the guard resume later?"

"After burning the incense, I guessed that the princess had come out of the dungeon, so I led the people to guard the door again. After waiting for four hours, there was no movement in the courtyard.

Later, Yue Lin's guard knocked on the door to ask about the situation. Unexpectedly, his body could not hold up after being injured. Before he could ask about the situation, he fainted and walked to the door of the prince's room. "

"That is to say, during the time you were helping him heal, there was no defense outside the door of my room."

Doctor Xiao suddenly remembered this and said quickly, "My lord, this is all my negligence."

"When did I wake up?" "At the fifth hour, I saw that there was no movement in the courtyard. I opened the door and came in. Only then did I find that the princess was not in the room at all."

The more Dr. Xiao thought about it, the more scared he became. Why did he believe Ning Muqing's lies? Fortunately, the prince was fine, otherwise the ten heads of slaves like them wouldn't be enough to cut off.

After hearing these clues, an impossible possibility suddenly appeared in Chu Lixuan's mind: maybe Ning Muqing had been here. She came when Dr. Xiao was transferred away from the defense and left when she was negligent in saving Yue Lin.

'Ning Muqing' has always been a superficial, stupid, and vain woman in the inherent impression of everyone in the capital.

However, after Chu Lixuan actually 'played' with Ning Muqing several times, he found that this woman was actually very organized and could grasp the key points of conflicts at once and quickly hit the weak spots.

They clashed several times, and Ning Muqing never lost in his hands.

When facing Xiao Yuyi and others alone, he can still trick them to achieve his desired goal.

Chu Lixuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you sure Ning Muqing has never been to my room?"

"What does the prince mean?" Dr. Xiao was stunned for a moment.

Chu Lixuan was poisoned and fell into a coma at three o'clock yesterday. After Yue Lin and Xiao Yuyi inquired about the whereabouts of the 'miraculous doctor' to no avail, Yue Lin went to the dungeon to interrogate Ning Muqing. Later at two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yuyi took away the defense and arrived at three o'clock. After recovering immediately, Yue Lin came to the door at 2 o'clock to ask about fainting and gave Yue Lin medical treatment.

Finally, Dr. Xiao waited for another hour and rushed back at 2:00 pm to open the door.

Therefore, from the second quarter to the third quarter of the hour, Ning Muqing might be able to leave at this time.

Moreover, Chu Lixuan clearly remembered that it was dark outside when he fought against the 'miracle doctor'.

But this is only possible.

The facts still need further verification.

"Since Yue Linzi came to the door of my room at three o'clock and then fainted, is Yue Lin awake now? And do you still remember what happened yesterday? Did you hear Ning Muqing's voice at the door of the room? "

Chu Lixuan peeled off the cocoon and drew silk, feeling extremely cold.

"This..." Dr. Xiao hesitated and thought for a while, "After Yue Lin came to his senses, he mentioned it to Wei Chen and asked the princess if she had cured the prince. Could it be that the princess was inside at that time and just left when we were not paying attention? Already?"

"You have to ask to know whether this is the case." Chu Lixuan did not rush to a conclusion.

"I will go and ask the Yuelin guards now."

Doctor Xiao immediately left in a hurry, and soon someone came over carrying Yue Lin, who was beaten and bruised all over.

"Your Majesty, my subordinate did go to the room that day and asked at the door. The people inside told me not to come near, and then I fainted."

This means that there was someone in Chu Lixuan's room at that time.

But it still couldn't be said that the person here was Ning Muqing, because Yue Lin was seriously injured at the time, and the voice heard outside the room was not real, and he was not sure what the speaker meant.

"Check! The servant guards who were on duty between two and three o'clock yesterday, and when Ning Muqing appeared yesterday."

The man is as cold and arrogant as a snow-capped mountain god.

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked out of the room.

Doctor Xiao and Yue Lin looked at each other's faces, their eyes filled with shock.

They never thought about the possibility that Ning Muqing had been here.

At present, all the maids and guards were once again summoned in the front yard of the palace.

Xiao Yuyi and Chai Yan acted separately and called out the servants on duty near the dungeon, bamboo forest courtyard, and Chu Lixuan courtyard that day for questioning.
