Chapter 136 It Wasn't Her Who Killed
Chapter 136 It Wasn't Her Who Killed
"It really is the Queen!" Bai Jiri said in surprise.
Bai Jiyue's face was gloomy: "Tie her up and wake her up, then we can ask her."
Bai Jiri didn't move for a moment. This is the Queen, do you really want to tie her up?
Ming Yuan, on the other hand, took a rope and tied the queen to the stool without saying a word.
He seemed to have no mercy on women. He pinched the queen's chin and stuffed a pill into her mouth.
After a while, the queen woke up slowly. When she saw that the person standing in front of her was Bai Jiyue, her face suddenly became alert.
"Bai Jiyue, you plotted against me!" she said coldly.
Bai Jiyue smiled leisurely: "Empress, weren't you the one who plotted against me first?"
Now that she has already torn her relationship with the Queen, she has made all the mental preparations. It's either you die or I die!
"I don't know what happened that made the Queen plot against me so deliberately and even leave the palace to supervise the matter. Can the Queen tell me?"
Hearing her words, the queen immediately frowned and said, "Bai Jiyue, stop pretending. I want to ask you, what did you do to Princess Qingyue?"
Bai Jiyue and Bai Jiri looked at each other.
What the Queen said was very strange. It was clearly her who sent people to hunt down Qingyue, but now she was asking her the question!
"I know he finally can't stand me anymore. If you want to do it, go ahead. I've already prepared to die! But before I die, I want to know what he did to Qingyue by sending you!"
he?
Bai Jiyue was a little confused.
From what the Queen said, it seems that there is someone else who wants to kill Qingyue. Who is this "he" she is talking about?
After thinking for a while, she said, "What do you think, Queen, he will do to Princess Qingyue?"
The Queen immediately showed a sad expression and cried out: "Qingyue is still a child, what crime has she committed? Even if you really can't tolerate her, just send her away, why kill her!"
As she spoke, she burst into tears, her face full of sadness.
Seeing that her sadness did not seem fake, Bai Jiyue became even more confused.
Didn't the Queen always find it hard to tolerate Qingyue? Why does it seem as if the Queen truly loves Qingyue?
The more the queen thought about it, the sadder and angrier she became. She even started to struggle madly on her chair: "Kill me, kill me!"
She fell to the ground with the chair, still struggling and twisting, shouting "Kill her".
Bai Jiyue stepped forward and stuffed a cloth into her mouth to stop her from screaming.
She asked Mingyuan to look after the queen, and she motioned Bai Jiri to follow her out into the next room.
There were several people lying in the room, one was the maid beside the queen, and there were several secret guards in black. They were the people who had captured her before.
These people were knocked unconscious by the drugs they gave them and have not woken up yet.
The three people watching in the room were Xie Ping, Zhu Yuan and Ma Qiao.
Bai Jiyue walked over quickly, pulled up the sleeves of the secret guards and the maid, and looked at their wrists.
Their wrists were smooth without a single scar.
Bai Jiyue looked back at Bai Jiri, and Bai Jiri also understood: "The one who is chasing Princess Qingyue is probably not the Queen's people, and the one who is related to Dad's death is probably not the Queen either."
Bai Jiyue frowned: "I have to ask her in person to find out."
Just as she was about to go out, Zhu Yuan stopped her: "Bai Jiyue, maybe the Queen really didn't do this."
Bai Jiyue turned to look at him, raising his eyebrows.
Zhu Yuan continued, "If the Queen had sent someone to hunt down Princess Qingyue, she would have killed you directly when she saw the jade pendant you revealed in the palace today, instead of leaving you alive and asking you where you got the jade pendant."
When Bai Jiyue asked them for help, he found out that the cute little boy following Mrs. Bai was actually Princess Qingyue.
Bai Jiri nodded and said, "That's right. If her goal was to kill Princess Qingyue, she should have killed all the people related to Princess Qingyue, and there was no need for her to show up in person."
Bai Jiyue felt that what they both said made sense.
Originally, she used herself to lure the enemy in order to see if the people sent by the Queen had scars on their wrists.
But unexpectedly, the Queen herself was lured out.
There was really no need for her to show up in person, unless she was in a hurry and had too many questions to ask, and both of these reasons usually came from concern rather than silencing someone.
It seems that she really needs to have a good talk with the Queen.
She returned to the next room and saw the queen sitting listlessly in a chair, completely devoid of her previous excitement.
Bai Jiyue felt something was wrong and turned to look at Mingyuan: "What did you do to her?"
"I fed her a medicine. After taking it, she will tell the truth." Ming Yuan replied in a deep voice.
Bai Jiyue looked at him in surprise.
How many treasures does this guy have?
Before, she asked her friends to help set a trap, which was the drug that Mingyuan took out.
The strength of the Queen's secret guards should not be underestimated. Even if several of them join forces to fight them, putting aside the question of winning or losing, the noise will definitely be huge and may be discovered by outsiders, increasing their danger.
If someone else gets hurt, Bai Jiyue will feel guilty.
Bai Jiyue had thought about this, but now that things had come to this point, there was really no other good way. He could only pray that his friends were all well.
But Mingyuan gave her a good idea: medicine!
Not only did he have a method, he also had medicine. They used the drugs he provided to successfully capture the Queen and her group, while they themselves remained unharmed.
And now, Mingyuan has taken out another medicine that can make people tell the truth!
"You... have saint blood?" she couldn't help but ask.
Looking across the Qinglan Continent, the Saints were the best at making medicine. From the previous healing elixir to the current truth-telling medicine, she really couldn't think of any other possibilities.
"You have seen my spiritual roots." Mingyuan said.
Yes, she had seen his spiritual root, the yellow one, which was the pure human bloodline.
"Then why do you have so many medicines?" she couldn't help but ask.
Ming Yuan smiled and said, "I just met a Saint by chance and bought a batch of medicine from him."
He turned to look at the queen: "She's almost there, you can ask now."
Bai Jiyue looked solemn and turned to the queen: "Queen, please tell me, did you send people to hunt down Princess Qingyue?"
The queen's eyes were half open and half closed, her expression dull: "It's not me."
"Who is that?"
"Yes... Your Majesty."
Bai Jiyue turned her head and looked at Mingyuan in shock. Mingyuan had a faint expression and motioned for her to continue asking.
Bai Jiyue took a deep breath and adjusted his mentality before asking, "Why did the emperor want to kill Qingyue?"
"Because he knows that Qingyue is not her biological daughter." The queen's voice was very flat, like a lifeless wooden figure.
"Qingyue is not the emperor's biological daughter, so whose daughter is it?"
"Your Highness Prince Qing."
Bai Jiyue was silent. No wonder she felt that Qingyue and Prince Qing looked so similar. It turned out that they were father and daughter!
