Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Emperor, I did not kill Su Yurou. If Your Highness doubts it, I can prove it to Your Highness!”
Chu Mingyuan’s face turned iron gray. Recalling his conversation with Wu Dao, he spoke coldly, “1 will see how you prove it.”
In front of everyone, Su Yingxue pulled back the sleeves and collar of Su Yurou. “Emperor, the wounds on her skin are visible, it was caused by excessive blood loss. However, I did not drain all the blood from her body. At that time, she collided with me and hit the wall, resulting in the head injury.”
“She was covered in blood. Look at the bloodstains on Miss Su’s clothes. Isn’t it enough evidence of someone dying from blood loss?” An old, raspy voice echoed, and Su Yingxue looked up to see Wu Dao emerging from the side hall.
She raised her lips slightly. “The sir is correct. There is indeed a lot of blood on her, and it hasn’t dried yet.”
Su Yingxue squatted down, examining Su Yurou’s blood-soaked attire. Although she had some of Su Yurou’s blood on herself, she smelled it and said, “The blood on Su Yurou’s body is not hers! It’s a blood bag she prepared in advance to conceal her death from excessive blood loss.”
All of this could not have been a scheme by Su Yurou.
She did not have such a clever mind.
Su Yingxue couldn’t help but glance at Wu Dao.
Wu Dao remained as cold as ever.
“If you say it’s not Rou’er’s blood, then it’s not! Su Yingxue, on what basis do you make such baseless remarks? Do you have the ability to prove it?” Chu Chengye clutched his chest as he stood up, feeling the pain of Su Yurou’s death and harboring even more hatred towards Su Yingxue!
This woman he could only yearn for!
“If she can prove it, all of you who falsely accused her must kneel and apologize to her!” Chu Yihan declared.
His voice was soft but carried considerable weight.
Chu Mingyuan was included among the people he mentioned.
Chu Mingyuan snorted. Making an emperor like him apologize was impossible!
Chu Chengye braved himself. “She is the one who harmed Rou’er. That’s an indisputable fact!”
“Alright, if I can prove it, Seventh Prince and Your Majesty, please apologize to me! After all, falsely accusing me is not something you can afford!” Su Yingxue’s eyes flashed with a fierce light.
The empress also took a gamble. Seeing Wu Dao standing confidently, she believed there would be no flaws, and Su Yingxue would not succeed. She said hatefully, “If you can prove it, I will personally apologize to you!”
Su Yingxue looked at Chu Yihan. Chu Yihan waved his hand, and the people in the palace were at her disposal.
She had prepared some tools, silver needles, clean water, and some glass slides, all developed during her study of her mother’s medical skills.
She drew blood from Su Yurou’s body, squeezed blood from her clothes, and dripped it onto a glass slide.
Just as she was about to prick her finger to take two drops of blood, Chu Yihan quickly stopped her. “What are you doing?”
“Blood test. Don’t worry, Your Highness. It’s just two drops of blood. It’ll be fine,” Su Yingxue said softly and gently.
Chu Yihan extended his hand, stopping her from using her blood.
Su Yingxue was touched by his heartwarming action. “Even though it’s just blood, Your Highness’s blood is much more precious than mine?”
Given Chu Yihan’s high status, it was likely that no one had dared to take his blood before.
“Whether you use my blood or not, if you don’t want to, I won’t let you do it..”
