"After Fan Xiao Wen's death, Wei Wen Chang took advantage of everyone not paying attention to him and quietly wiped out the Poppy Pollen without being noticed.

However, since the examination by the Imperial Physician and the Dali Temple only found that Fan Xiao Wen died of an asthma attack, that made us think he merely became sick.

At that time, so many people witnessed it with their own eyes, so everyone would believe that it was a reasonable cause of death, and no one would suspect that this was actually a murder case."

Murong Ci remarked and analyzed the case clearly and reasonably.

Shen Zhiyan clapped his palms again, admiring him very much,

"His Royal Highness' speculation is absolutely magnificent."

Murong Yu's face became heavy.

He didn't expect that His Royal Highness could guess the facts of the case based on so few clues in such a short period of time.

Although the facts of this case were not very complicated, it involved the Ministry of Etiquettes and Rituals, the servants of the Wuying Hall and Concubine Rong.

Ordinary people simply wouldn't be able to connect these unrelated people and things together.

In addition to being bold and careful on every details, you also need a clever and brilliant mind.

Xiao Yongzi opened his mouth slightly and looked at His Royal Highness blankly, with his face dark and full of shock.

'His Royal Highness actually inferred that it wasn't all my doing alone.

He really is a god-man of investigation.'

In the next moment, the fear of death grabbed his heart, and the tragic death of his family seemed to be reflected in front of him.

Suddenly, he was out of breath and his soul flew away.

It didn't matter if he died, but he never wanted to hurt his family.

Murong Yu's eyes were as dark as midnight,

"So, Concubine Rong instructed Xiao Yongzi to murder Fan Xiao Wen.

But why did Concubine Rong do this?"

Murong Ci smiled,

"Concubine Rong is the daughter of Duke Rong Guo of the Rong Clan, so it's not surprising that she would naturally want to help her nephew, Rong Qing Ting.

Rong Qing Ting is also participating in the Competition this time, and she probably hoped he'd be in the top three."

Shen Zhiyan continued:

"I believe Rong Qing Ting's talent is second only to Fan Xiao Wen's.

He is as gentle as a jade, fresh like the breeze, and with his distinguished background and famous talent from all over the world, he is also a beloved person in the hearts of many famous ladies.

Rong Qing Ting works in the household department.

Although his position is low, his future is promising and unlimited."

Among the young famous talents in the Country, he could be regarded as a precious one.

"As long as the number one young talent in the Northern Yan Kingdom, Fan Xiao Wen died, wouldn't it be Rong Qing Ting the one who would benefit the most from it?"

She smiled cleanly,

"Furthermore, Rong Qing Ting has practiced martial arts for many years, and he is considered both talented in civil affairs and martial arts.

The chances of him winning were the greatest."

"For the sake of her nephew, Concubine Rong did not hesitate to use her influence to kill Fan Xiao Wen in secret."

Murong Yu's deep eyes flew with a trace of contempt,

"Her actions can also be regarded as a 'great gift' for her Rong Clan..."

"Concubine Rong must have thought that the murder wouldn't be discovered by anyone, but she didn't expect that all of this would be understood by Your Highness."

Shen Zhiyan smiled and looked at Xiao Yongzi,

"What else do you have to say?"

"Your Royal Highness is wise, and what he said is right.

This servant pleaded guilty and is at his disposal.

I beg Your Royal Highness and the Prince Regent to spare my family."

Xiao Yongzi really panicked, afraid of being haunted by ghosts, and banged his head to the grown bowing deeply, with his forehead that started bleeding non-stop.

"If you do what as I say, I'll forgive your family."

Murong Ci sneered meaningfully.
