Chapter 2425 Lily Secrets

Everyone stared closely at the second prince. This time he closed his eyes again, but it was just this action.

Bai Ruozhu took a breath, "Don't worry, I know you can't say it now. I'll just talk to a few people. If it's wrong, just move your eyes from left to right."

"Your trusted guard?"

After waiting, the second prince's eyes moved left and right. Although it was very slow, everyone still understood what he meant.

"Your princess?"

Just as Bai Ruozhu finished asking, the emperor said: "Jiro hasn't married the princess yet."

"Then change it to your concubine, or the woman next to you?" Bai Ruozhu asked.

This time, the second prince closed his eyes, and the emperor was surprised, "When did you have a woman?"

"Your Majesty, please immediately send someone to check the second prince's palace." Bai Ruozhu reminded.

"Okay, I'm going to give instructions to the people below." The emperor was about to go out.

"An ordinary woman would not have such a rare poison. Let's keep him alive and interrogate him." Bai Ruozhu reminded again. She vaguely felt that the emperor was really too kind, and she didn't expect all these twists and turns.

The second prince couldn't hold on anymore and fell asleep again.

Unexpectedly, the emperor caught the poisoner that night and invited Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun to interrogate him together.

Bai Ruozhu saw a woman who was not too young. She couldn't tell the difference between the hair accessories of the Fusang woman and the woman, and she couldn't tell whether the other woman had ever been married before, but the woman looked like she could be the second prince's mother at that age.

"I have asked someone to find out. It is Lily who has been seducing Jiro and always serving him. Jiro's daily stew is also made by her herself." The emperor said angrily.

Bai Ruozhu frowned. She felt vaguely strange, "Your Majesty, what is the identity of this Lily, and why is it in the second emperor's womb?"

Also Lily, this name really makes people think astray.

The emperor looked a little embarrassed and hesitated before saying: "She is Jiro's wet nurse. When the prince is over six years old, he must live in a separate palace and cannot stay with Masako anymore, so this Lily is also assigned to be the housekeeper here."

The corner of Bai Ruozhu's mouth twitched. This was done to her own wet nurse. What's the difference between it and a prostitute? Is this what Fusang people are good at?

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I really didn't poison the second prince. I only have a way out by following the second prince. How could I harm him? There must be some misunderstanding here!" Na Lily cried.

"Jiro said it was you, but you still dare to quibble. Come on, I'll torture you!" the emperor said angrily.

Bai Ruozhu had already vaguely felt that it was not Lily who had poisoned her, but Lily was indeed at fault and deserved some punishment.

Soon someone took a cane and beat Lily on the back. Lily screamed repeatedly, but kept shouting injustice and saying that she would never harm the second prince.

After beating her for more than 20 times, Bai Ruozhu raised her hand and said, "Your Majesty, I think it's unlikely that it's her, otherwise the other party wouldn't have silenced her until now. Maybe someone borrowed her to get close to the second prince, or maybe someone borrowed her to get close to the second prince. There was something tampered with in her stew, but it’s been so long that it’s hard to find out anything.”

Lily collapsed on the ground in pain, and suddenly her face changed drastically and she said: "By the way, Your Majesty, the casserole I usually used was broken a few days ago. Strangely enough, it was Ling Wei who bumped into me."

"Who is Ling Wei?" Bai Ruozhu asked immediately.

The emperor's expression changed, "It's the secret guard I assigned to Jiro, but he has always been loyal to me, it can't be him."

As he said this, he glared at Lily and said, "You know how to climb randomly."

"Your Majesty is aware that I really haven't!" Lily was anxious to death. Unfortunately, no one else saw it at the time, so she couldn't prove what she said at this moment.

"Your Majesty, why don't you give her to me temporarily, and I'll find a way to ask clearly." Bai Ruozhu wanted to use medicine to test whether Lily was telling the truth, but she didn't want to use medicine in front of the Fuso people.

"Okay." The emperor agreed immediately, and now he trusted Bai Ruozhu very much.

Soon, Bai Ruozhu tapped Lily's acupuncture points and carried her back to the small courtyard where they were staying temporarily.

"Is the second prince inside? Is he okay?" Lily couldn't move and was being carried by Bai Ruozhu. She was a little scared, but when she entered the courtyard, she couldn't help but ask.

Bai Ruozhu noticed the concern in her eyes. That emotion could be seen by Bai Ruozhu, who was also a woman. This Lily had deep feelings for the second prince.

She didn't think it was inappropriate for Lily to be older than the second prince, but the identity of this wet nurse was really...

"It will be fine." Bai Ruozhu said calmly.

Lily breathed a huge sigh of relief, "I'll tell you everything I know, but I really didn't poison the second prince, and I won't harm him even if I die."

Bai Ruozhu pulled her into his room and threw a pill directly into her mouth. Lily's eyes soon lost focus.

Lily confessed some things and proved that she was not lying, but because of this, Lily had no secrets, so what she confessed was of little use. After asking, she still didn’t know who the poisoner was, but her casserole was indeed zero. Wei knocked it over.

What kind of skills does a secret guard have? Could he accidentally bump into the master's wet nurse and knock over the casserole in her hand?

Unless someone wants to destroy the casserole and destroy the evidence, Bai Ruozhu will definitely be able to find some clues as long as the original casserole is still there.

It's a pity that now all the pieces of fool have been thrown away.

"Let the emperor send someone to keep an eye on the zero guard secretly. It may not be him, maybe he is also being used." Bai Ruozhu said to Jiang Yichun beside him.

Jiang Yichun didn't rush out and went to rub her eyebrows behind him. He didn't like to see her frowning the most.

"Let the Emperor worry more about it. Even if we can't find out the mastermind behind it, it won't be a loss for us. We just need to be careful and take precautions."

Bai Ruozhu pouted, "But the person behind the scenes may have the Poison Sutra. I have to find a way to get it."

Jiang Yichun almost forgot about this incident. He smiled and said, "Okay, I will help you get the "Poison Classic"."

"Aren't you afraid that I will learn more about poison and become the most poisonous woman?" Bai Ruozhu hugged his neck and said jokingly.

"What are you afraid of? If you die under the peonies, you will be charming even if you are a ghost." Jiang Yichun laughed, and Bai Ruozhu gritted his teeth in anger. He was really becoming more and more shameless.

In order not to raise suspicion on the Emperor's side, Bai Ruozhu imprisoned Lily for another two days before sending it back to the Emperor's side and explaining the results of his interrogation.

Lily, on the other hand, looked confused. She didn't remember that she had been interrogated. Could it be that Mr. Bai had a good heart and believed her words and let her go like this?

…

"Master, Bai Ruozhu noticed that the barrel had been tampered with. We haven't dared to do anything in the past few days. Do you want to..." In the dark corner, a person in the shadow asked.
