The grass leaf is very small, and the cloak is dark green, so it is difficult to be found on it.

Princess Jing explained, "today I went out wearing it during the day. I should have accidentally touched it at that time."

Xiao Xi was noncommittal.

She pulled all her cloaks off the screen.

Dongling wants to stop her, but she is stopped by Baoqin.

She can only go to see Princess Jing.

However, imperial concubine Jing can't help it now. She can only watch the imperial concubine start to search for the cloak inch by inch.

Soon, Xiao Xi found some soil on the edge of the cloak hem.

She reached out and grabbed a little soil and smiled.

"The soil is still wet. It must have just touched it."

Princess Jing was speechless.

She asked with tears in her eyes, "what does your imperial concubine mean? Do you suspect my body of lying? My body almost died. Even if your imperial concubine didn't care, why did she fall into the well?"

Xiao Cuixi: "don't change the subject. The palace wants to know if you go out tonight in this cloak? You just answer yes or no."

Princess Jing looked at the emperor and begged with tears in her eyes.

"Your Majesty, my concubine was really hurt. Please make the decision for my concubine!"

If you want to be a normal man, you must be soft hearted in the face of such a beautiful woman.

Unfortunately, what she met was Luo QingHan, a big pig hoof with no emotion.

The big pig hoof emperor seemed blind, completely ignoring her pitiful appeal and said coldly.

"Whatever the imperial concubine asks you, you can say."

Princess Jing's tears fell down after brushing.

She cried bitterly: "why doesn't your majesty believe me? I'm dead, sobbing!"

Luo QingHan: "Chang Xi, go and get a pot of poisoned wine. Since Princess Jing doesn't want to live, let's take her on the road."

Princess Jing's crying stopped suddenly.

She looked at the emperor in disbelief and almost thought she had heard something wrong.

Until father-in-law Chang really brought a pot of poisoned wine, concubine Jing suddenly came back to her senses.

She looked at the glass handed to her, her eyes full of panic and fear.

"No, your majesty, I just said that casually. I don't really want to live anymore. Please take my life back and spare me this time. I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore!"

Luo QingHan looked at her calmly: "are you willing to answer honestly?"

Princess Jing nodded with tears.

Luo QingHan waved his hand.

Father-in-law Chang retreated aside with his wine glass.

Xiao Xixi: "did Princess Jing go out in this cloak tonight?"

Princess Jing choked as she quickly calculated how to deal with it.

"Yes, I did go out in it tonight, but so what? Is it wrong for me to go out in it?"

Xiao Cuixi: "then the problem comes.

Since you went out in it, why did you fall into the water, but the cloak was still dry?

Don't tell me you took off your cloak halfway.

On such a cold day, you suddenly took off your cloak. Do you want to freeze yourself to death? "

Princess Jing was dumbfounded. She was obviously asked.

Xiao Xi then said, "or did the man who murdered you take off his cloak before pushing you into the water?"

Princess Jing opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she couldn't find a suitable reason.

If she were given more time, she might be able to find an excuse for herself, but now the emperor is sitting in front of her, and the imperial concubine is staring at her. She must give an answer as soon as possible, and there is no extra thinking time at all.

She held it for a long time before she dryly held back two words.

"I took an extra cloak with me when I went out. This cloak got dirty when it rubbed against the soil, so I changed another cloak."

Xiao Xixi: "Oh? Is it the cloak that was sent to the clothes washing bureau? I'll ask someone to go to the clothes washing bureau to see if Yingfu palace sent a wet cloak tonight?"

Although she said that, she didn't move, so she looked at Princess Jing with a smile.

Princess Jing's face was already white, and it was even more white at this time.

She didn't go out with an extra cloak tonight. If she went to the clothes washing Bureau, the result would be different from what she said.

Xiao Xixi: "there's another thing to remind you. Shao Xuanshi is not dead. Do you need to see her?"

Princess Jing blurted out, "I don't see her!"

After saying that, she reacted. Her reaction seemed too big, and she immediately shut up again.

Xiao Xixi handed her cloak to the maid in waiting beside her. Her eyes turned around Princess Jing's pale and ugly face and said slowly.

"If you guessed right, you didn't go out tonight with your extra cloak.

You go out in this cloak.

You took off your cloak before you jumped into the lake.

Because this cloak is too thick, it will become very heavy once it enters the water.

If you wear it, it will certainly increase a lot of burden, and may even affect the speed of others to save you out of the water.

On such a cold day, if you stay in the water for a long time, you may freeze to death even if you don't drown.

You jumped into the lake just to reduce your suspicion and sell sympathy. You don't really want to die, so you took off your cloak before jumping into the lake. "

Imperial concubine Jing avoided her sight and smiled miserably: "does the imperial concubine want to convict me with only a cloak? I can die, but I don't accept this unwarranted crime."

Xiao Xixi: "it's very stubborn. Hua Chun and zhi'er died one after another, and Shao Xuanshi was almost killed. You can't do so many things alone. Do you want the palace to take all the people around you to the Criminal Justice Department for trial? Maybe they can know something?"

When Dong Ling heard the speech, his face changed and hurriedly knelt down: "spare your life, imperial concubine and maidservant. I don't know anything!"

Luo QingHan: "send all the people in Yingfu palace to Shenxing division for review."

This remark almost forced the whole people of Yingfu palace to a dead end.

Everyone in the palace knows that if you are in the Department of careful punishment, you have to take off the skin if you don't die!

If they were sent to the punishment department, they would be killed and come out again.

There were cries of supplication.

However, it was useless. All the maids and eunuchs in Yingfu palace were dragged away by the guards.

Princess Jing heard those desperate cries and felt cold all over, colder than when she soaked in the cold lake.

She works very carefully on weekdays. When she does things that can't be seen, she will deliberately avoid the people around her.

But over time, those who serve around them will inevitably notice.

It's just that everyone knows it.

Now all the people in Yingfu palace have been dragged to the Criminal Justice Department for interrogation. Princess Jing can't ensure that these people can keep their mouth shut.
