While the princess and Xiao Hanhan were resting, Luo Yechen asked the housekeeper about the whole process of the princess' production.

Knowing that someone was trying to poison the princess in the ginseng soup, Luo Yechen's anger instantly soared to the top.

He ran aggressively to the emperor, wanting to know the outcome of the interrogation.

As a result, the maid who delivered the soup was completely unaware of it, and Granny Wen asked her to serve the soup, and she did it honestly. The poisoning had nothing to do with her.

Luo Yechen asked, "What about the others? Who is responsible for making the ginseng soup? Has everyone checked it out?"

Because he was too eager, his attitude was inevitably a little rushed.

The Duke of Dingyuan coughed lightly and reminded the King of England to restrain his attitude. He was talking to the emperor, not interrogating the suspect.

Marquis Dingyuan was afraid that the emperor would be dissatisfied with King Ying because of this, so he immediately looked at the emperor and said respectfully.

"This matter is related to the safety of the princess and her son. The prince is too anxious, and please don't have any knowledge of him."

Luo Qinghan didn't care much about these little things, and waved his hand to show it was okay.

He said indifferently: "Everyone in the kitchen has been inquired, and everyone has no problem."

Luo Yechen couldn't believe it: "How is this possible? If there is no suspect, how did the poison in the ginseng soup come from?"

Luo Qinghan was speechless.

This is also where he is puzzled.

All the people in Fuzhong who may have come into contact with the ginseng soup have been carefully checked.

No matter in terms of time, place, and motive, they are not suspected of committing the crime.

The poison in that bowl of ginseng soup seemed to have just emerged out of thin air.

Luo Yechen didn't give up, he decided to ask again in person.

Luo Qinghan didn't say much about this, and directly asked the guards to release all those people.

Luo Yechen gathered everyone on the school grounds and conducted an interrogation one by one.

Dingyuan Hou stood by and stared, his sharp eyes swept across everyone present one by one, once someone showed a guilty look, he would immediately be caught by him.

Luo Qinghan and Xixi also wanted to know the result of the interrogation, so they sat and watched.

All the people who may have come into contact with the ginseng soup are here, and there are only six people in total.

Even though Luo Yechen asked very carefully and used all the means of coercion and inducement, he quickly finished asking everyone. The result was the same as before, everyone's answers were complete, and nothing suspicious was found.

Luo Yechen was so impatient that he walked back and forth with his hands behind his back, thinking all over his head, which link went wrong?

Others think the same way.

Where is the problem?

Luo Qinghan turned to look at Xixi and asked in a low voice.

"Do you see anything wrong?"

Xiao Xixi shook her head: "No, all these people are telling the truth."

These six people have very ordinary faces, and there is no such thing as being riddled with evil spirits, which means that they are not harmful.

Then the butler asked all the evidence involved in the case to be brought up.

There are half-cut ginseng, a casserole for making soup, a wooden spoon for scooping soup, and a red glass bowl for serving soup.

There is still a small half bowl of cold soup left in the glass bowl, and a small spoon is quietly placed on the side of the bowl.

As soon as Luo Yechen saw the small half bowl of soup, his anger rose up, and he could not wait to shove the half bowl of ginseng soup directly into the real murderer's mouth.

The government doctor has already inspected these instruments and said truthfully.

"Ginseng is indeed the best 100-year-old ginseng. It is non-toxic. The casserole and wooden spoon are non-toxic, and the bowl and spoon are not poisonous. Only the ginseng soup is poisonous."

This shows that the poison is directly placed in the ginseng soup, rather than smeared on the surface of the casserole, wooden spoon, bowl, and spoon.

In other words, only people who come into contact with ginseng soup are likely to be poisoned.

So the suspicion was concentrated on the six people present.

But no matter how they checked, there was no problem with these six people.

The case has entered a dead end, and there is no way to find the correct exit.

Luo Yechen could directly kill all six people without asking indiscriminately, but this could only serve to vent his anger and would not help the progress of the case in any way.

He wanted to know who the real poisoner was, and who wanted to harm his princess and child?

He wants to chop the poisoned murderer into scum with his own hands!

Only in this way can the hatred in his heart be solved!

Marquis Dingyuan looked at the sky: "It's getting late, let's go here today, look back and check slowly, you can always find out the truth."

Although Luo Yechen was unwilling, as far as the current situation is concerned, it can only be done first.

He waved his hand and let the six people be taken down, along with the evidence.

At this moment, Xiao Xixi suddenly stood up.

"Wait a moment."

Everyone was stunned and looked at her in unison.

I saw her walking straight to the tray holding the evidence.

She stretched out her right hand and picked up the small and delicate spoon.

The spoon is polished with high-quality ruby, the surface is smooth and round, the handle is also carved with delicate patterns, and the workmanship is extremely exquisite.

It must have taken a lot of thought to make such a beautiful spoon.

However, it is such a beautiful small spoon, but it emits a faint blood light.

That is an ominous symbol.

Seeing the imperial concubine staring at the spoon for a long time, Luo Yechen couldn't help asking.

"Do you see anything wrong?"

Xiao Xixi raised the spoon, looked at the sun carefully, and then asked back.

"Are you sure this spoon is okay?"

The government doctor hurriedly said: "I have already checked it, and there is no problem."

Xiao Xixi: "How did you check?"

The doctor said truthfully: "Scraped the surface of the spoon, and then checked what was scraped, and the results showed that it was non-toxic."

Xiao Xixi pointed to the spoon handle: "Have you checked this place?"

The mansion doctor stepped forward immediately, stared at the handle of the spoon, and shook his head.

"No."

When checking the utensils, generally check the places that will come into contact with the soup. There is no need to check the parts that are not in contact with the soup, such as the handle.

Xiao Xixi didn't say anything more, only said: "Let's do an experiment, please bring a bowl of hot soup."

Luo Yechen glanced at the housekeeper.

The housekeeper immediately hurried out of the kitchen.

Soon he brought a bowl of hot chicken soup.

He breathlessly explained, "There is no ginseng soup in the kitchen right now, only chicken soup for now."

Xiao Xixi: "Chicken soup is fine too."

She took the chicken soup and had the government doctor check it to make sure it wasn't poisonous before starting her own experiment.

She put the spoon into the chicken soup, then called out the maid who was in charge of serving the ginseng soup and asked.

"When you brought the soup to the princess, did you stir the ginseng soup with a spoon first?"

The maid was trembling with fear and anxiety, but she fought back and answered truthfully.

"Back to the words of the imperial concubine, yes."
