He said, and then thought of something again, and continued: "That child kept repeating a sentence, he said that his cousin had come, his cousin had brought monsters... Lan Yu's tone was extremely terrified when he said this. Although I asked him which cousin it was, he refused to say anything, but I think it shouldn't be hard to guess."
Di Jun's eyes turned cold and detached: "What do you want to say?"
Situ Fei shrugged: "I'm just telling the truth, this is indeed what Lan Yu said himself, if you don't believe me, you can ask him yourself."
"There are so many people in the Blue House, but you directly locked onto Chu Ci as the suspect." Emperor Ji's lips curled into a cold smile, his voice dripping with frost.
"This is what you said yourself, Your Highness. I didn't say it. Xiao Yu's cousins are not few in number, but currently, there are only two who are still alive. One is Chu Ci and the other is Chu Ci's younger sister, Chu Cheng. However, Chu Cheng was married to the King of Su a year ago and she suffers from leg disease. It's said that she rarely goes out as she stays deep within the palace. Who has more suspicion on them? Isn't it obvious?"
Yes, Si Tu Fei always believed that it was most likely a Chu Ci.
It's not that he targeted Chu Ci, but rather there are many clues in the evidence they have now that point to Chu Ci.
Moreover, Chu Ci had a falling out with the Duke of Hu Guo and had a huge fight with the Crown Prince in the past two years. How could he suddenly change his ways and become friends with the Crown Prince after being destroyed at the Blue House?
Is it that she really changed her sex or is she guilty and wants to personally come to Qingzhou to destroy the evidence, which one is more credible, isn't this a obvious thing?
However, Emperor Chi's next words were calmly and one by one refuting his doubts. "Firstly, only two people survived, it doesn't mean that the so-called cousin is among them; Secondly, living in the palace for many years does not necessarily exclude suspicion; Thirdly, when Blue House had an accident, Chu Ci was playing outside the East Palace and was caught by the king to be scolded, and he himself accidentally got hurt, no time to care about Blue House, the king is the best witness, just this point alone is enough to prove that she has nothing to do with it."
It's reasonable to say that Emperor Yan could make such a long speech to clear Chu Ci's name, and it's not surprising that Situ Fei would be skeptical, but he felt that no one would dare believe it after saying it, and what Emperor Yan said was reasonable, making it hard for people not to believe.
But even if Chu Ci really clears up the suspicion, what's the benefit for Di Jinlei? Isn't Di Jinlei always the one who dislikes Chu Ci the most? Why would he speak up for Chu Ci like this...
Situ Fei found it strange, but he wouldn't ask because he knew that Emperor Yan would not answer him even if he did.
"He could only raise his hand in a gesture of surrender: 'Alright, I give up. From now on, I won't doubt the Crown Princess again. Is that enough?' He said, changing the subject to the main topic, 'However, Your Highness, going back to what you said earlier, there are countless Fetal Spirits in the dungeon beneath the South Border Palace. On my side, I have poisonous medicine that can wipe out those monsters all at once. It's just a matter of when you give the order.'"
"Tonight," Emperor Tie said calmly, "I have already ordered the Dark Guard Army to prepare. We will make our move at midnight."
Upon hearing this, Situ Fei immediately understood Emperor Chi's meaning. Emperor Chi had already secretly surrounded Bian Nanfu.
