Chapter 1863: Impersonation

” Under everyone’s watchful eyes, this assassin only ate the so-called truth pill that you gave him. That’s why he became like this.” Prince Ping pointed at the assassin’s corpse on the ground and said angrily,” If you didn’t kill him, what did?”

At this point, he thought for a moment and paused before adding,” You said it yourself just now. This truth pill is a new pill that you concocted. No one knows how effective it is. So, even if you didn’t kill him on purpose, you’re still suspected of killing the witness!”

However, when Prince Ping said this, he felt like there was something in his mouth, but he couldn’t feel it when he licked it with his tongue, so he didn’t take it to heart.

Right now, he was feeling excited and happy because he had caught hold of Lin Yuelan’s weakness. At this moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes, the criminal was poisoned to death, and the only person who had fed him was Lin Yuelan.

Therefore, everything was directed at Lin Yuelan.

Jiang Zhenan stood in front of Lin Yuelan and said coldly to Prince Ping,” Prince Ping, this prisoner is extremely important to prove the princess’s innocence. So, do you think the princess would be so foolish to poison someone to death before she could ask any questions and then take the blame for murder?”

At this point, he looked at Prince Ping with a sharp gaze and said coldly,” Prince Ping, does Princess Gu look so stupid?”

Prince Ping defended himself,” Great General, I didn’t say that Princess Gu killed the witness on purpose.”

At this point, his expression also became fierce and serious. He continued,” General, whether you admit it or not, this assassin died after taking the pill given by the princess of Guguo. Therefore, no matter if it was intentional or not, there is one fact that cannot be changed. Princess Gu poisoned this assassin!”

This was the most crucial point; Lin Yuelan had given him the pill in front of everyone, and then he had died.

Therefore, just like what Prince Ping had said, regardless of whether Lin Yuelan did it on purpose or not before the truth of the assassin’s death was found out, Lin Yuelan would temporarily bear the crime of murder.

After Prince Ping finished speaking to Jiang Zhennan, he immediately turned around and sternly said to the Crown Prince,” Crown Prince, it is a fact that Princess Guguo has killed someone. Please give the order to put Princess Guguo in prison immediately. After all the truth has been investigated, we will make arrangements or punish Princess Guguo!”

Looking at the overbearing Prince Ping, the Crown Prince frowned and said sternly,” Seventh Imperial Uncle, you said it yourself. The truth of the assassin’s death is unknown. How can we conclude that Princess Gu poisoned him? So, isn’t it too serious to imprison Princess Gu?”

The Crown Prince was no longer as close to Prince Ping as before. His tone was faintly distant.

He was targeting the princess of Guguo in every way and even wanted to depose the princess. It was more like he was targeting him and wanted to pull him down from the position of Crown Prince.

Prince Ping’s face sank. Just as he was about to say something, Second Brother Hu suddenly spoke.

He said,” Your Highness, Princess Guguo, I have drawn the rough appearance of the jade pendant. Please take a look!”

Hearing Second Brother Hu’s words, the Crown Prince’s heart skipped a beat. He said anxiously,” Hurry up and hand it over!”

Just as the guard was about to take the blueprint from Second Brother Hu’s hands, Jiang Zhennan beat him to it and took the blueprint from Second Brother Hu’s hands to show the Crown Prince.

He did this to prevent anyone from messing around or causing any changes.

The Crown Prince took the blueprint and examined it impatiently.

When he first saw the blueprint, his pupils couldn’t help but shrink. Then, he regained his composure and continued to look at the jade pendant in the blueprint with a calm expression. Suddenly, his pupils constricted violently again. Then, a trace of surprise flashed on his face, but he quickly hid it.

The eldest grandson had been staring at the blueprint ever since Second Brother Hu finished drawing it. He especially noticed the Crown Prince’s expression. Very soon, he noticed the surprise on the Crown Prince’s face. He clenched his fists and lowered his head slightly. A fierce light flashed in his eyes.

The crown prince picked up the gavel and slapped it again. He shouted sternly,” Second Elder Hu, are you sure you didn’t remember the appearance of this jade pendant wrongly?”

Second Brother Hu replied honestly,” Your Highness, I am very sure that I will not remember wrongly!”

The Crown Prince nodded. Then, he picked up the blueprint and pointed at a certain spot.” Why is there a thin line here?”

This thin line was on the left side of the dragon pattern jade pendant. If one did not pay attention, one would not be able to notice it.

However, because Second Brother Hu had drawn the blueprint, it was obvious at a glance.

Second Brother Hu said,” Your Highness, there is a small line on the left part of the jade pendant. I remember it very clearly! At that time, I was a little puzzled. Why would such an exquisite jade pendant have such a small flaw?”

When the Crown Prince heard this, his face was very serious as he said,” What else could it be? Of course, it’s because this piece of jade represents the royal identity, and the identity of the Emperor is fake!”

What was that?

It was fake.

No one expected that the Emperor would tell them that the jade pendant was fake.

Since this jade pendant was fake, it meant that the Emperor was not the one who wanted to frame Princess Guguo.

No!

This kind of dragon pattern jade pendant represented the identity of the emperor, and Second Brother Hu had seen this kind of jade pendant. However, now that he had checked it out, this jade pendant was fake. Did that mean that someone…Someone was…

Someone impersonated the Emperor to frame Princess Gu?

Many people were shocked when they heard this.

Impersonating the Emperor was a serious crime of treason.

Who had the guts to impersonate the Emperor?

This case was no longer just about the princess owing wages. It had implicated the emperor and even involved the country.

The two princes were also shocked.

They also did not expect that this case, which seemed to be the case of the princess owing wages to the workers, would suddenly involve a major rebellion case.

The mastermind behind this rebellion was very likely the mastermind behind the plot to frame the princess.

However, what they did not understand was why the mastermind would impersonate the Emperor and find a few lowlifes to frame Lin Yuelan.

This was obviously a stupid act of using an ox knife to slaughter a chicken. Moreover, this ox knife was a dazzling golden knife. If it were exposed, it would be a great crime!

Prince Ping’s eyes widened. He could not believe that this matter had developed to this extent.

However, his sharp eyes seemed to be spewing anger. He pointed at Lin Yuelan and reprimanded her sternly,” It’s you, it’s you. If you hadn’t poisoned the only witness, we might have found out who was behind this. Now that the only clue has been broken, this king will see how you are going to explain it to His Majesty!”

Lin Yuelan looked at the furious Prince Ping and sneered,” Prince Ping, who told you that this person can’t come back to life after being poisoned?”

Everyone was speechless.
