Facts - teil 2

Wang Xiao Hu was speechless, thickened his face and praised Ye Zhen Zhen a little. Ye Zhen Zhen's mood became better and start some small talk with, asking how many people are there in his family, what do they do, how did he enter the palace, how many years has it been …..

Wang Xiao Hu, thinking that he will die soon anyway, he answered her honestly, while adding a lot of outside news and stories for Ye Zhen Zhen, whom thought it was very interesting, and was always letting out a small laughter here and there.

The atmosphere was very good.

The atmosphere behind the screen was not good.

While listening to the both of them outside, Ji Wu Jiu can't help but wonder how did the 2 person who was having a strict and tense interrogation session now turn to be a story sharing session with laughter? Even if he heard the entire conversation he still couldn't understand.. this two… are they idiots?

The most important thing was, she placed him here and seems to have totally forgotten.

Waiting for a while more, still Ye Zhen Zhen did not come to escort him, he stood up and headed outside.

"Niang Niang, the things outside although not as intricate as the ones in the palace, but they are better because things are always new, there is many things that you can try, like at that famous restaurant, with various types of cuisines from all over the world, not that I want to praise them overly but in terms of variety they can totally fight with the ones in the palace"

"Really? Have you tried them?"

"I have only been there once, I ate Japanese cuisine, the fish are eaten raw, some people can't take it, but I think it is still not too bad, it's rather fresh."

"Can raw fish be eaten?"

"Can, there is many things to eat there, there is also a deep fried prawns, it is too bad that I am going to die soon, if not I would be able to bring back some for your majesty to try"

"Even though you did something grave, but since you were forced by someone, I will try to ask the emperor to change your…..thats right the emperor!" Ye Zhen Zhen suddenly remember that person, immediately stood up and looked back, only to find that Ji Wu Jiu was already standing outside the screen.

Immediately Wang Xiao Hu kneeled down to greet the emperor. "May the emperor live for tens of thousands of years"

Ji Wu Jiu looked at the both of them coldly, "the both of you are very compatible"

Ye Zhen Zhen, turned to Wang Xiao Hu and said "You may leave first"

Ji Wu Jiu, sat down. Ye Zhen Zhen asked Su Yue to bring a cup of tea, and she served him personally.

"Since when did you get the clue about this case" After everyone left, he asked..

"When I saw Ding Da Xiang's corpse"

Normally if someone were to commit suicide out of guilt, they would not purposely put the evidence on their body, it was obvious he was trying to frame someone. Furthermore even the time to commit suicide was too matching, and if not because someone went back to sneak a nap, afraid only when the emperor arrives only we will know about him. And if want to frame the empress, then the only person to report the case to will be to the emperor.

"Why did you think it is Hui Consort?"

"The dogs that normally bite doesn't bark"

Framing the empress is not as easy as to try to murder Li Concubine, to face two woman of high rank at the same time, will require a lot of courage, intelligence, and relations in order to do so. Of course, by doing this that person must be able to get something with the fall of the empress. That's why Ye Zhen Zhen reduced the size of the suspects to those with the Consort rank and above. Zhuang Consort sides Li Concubine, so she was eliminated, Xian Concubine has not stabilized her position, and with her behavior she would not do something as rash as this, Xi Consort, is someone who just knows how to bark but doesn't bite. As for Li Concubine herself, as per her simple mind, the person she dislikes most now should be Xian Concubine who stole the emperor's doting, that's why it is not her as well.

The last one left is Hui Consort.

"Why did you not suspect Xian Concubine?"

"Xian Concubine is your favourite now, how would I dare to suspect her?"

Hearing this type of sour words, Ji Wu Jiu felt very good, "But Hui Consort does not have any grudge against you?"

Ye Zhen Zhen looked at him "Your majesty, I am a very straight forward person, always speaks what comes to mind, this time when I finally decided to talk less, are you sure you want me to tell you everything?"

Hui Consort, actually won't be so daring to find trouble with Ye Zhen Zhen, but then, one should know, the person behind Hui Consort is the Empress Dowager.

"Its fine".. Ji Wu Jiu shook his head. His eyes met hers, her gaze has no expression. "You are clever", he then took a sip of tea.

"Not only clever, actually I am very clever"

"Pu——"

The tea could not be stopped from coming out from his mouth. Looking down at his robes, and looking at the still calmed Ye Zhen Zhen, he shook his head while wiping his robes with a handkerchief, and sighing tiredly at the same time…..
