Luo Tong looked at Wu Qingqing with a sneer: "What else do you have to quibble with?"
At this time, Wu Qingqing's face was already pale and the color on his lips was gone. She never thought that Luo Tong would send people to search the west courtyard and find this dress!
She originally wanted to keep it for emergencies in the future, but she didn't expect that it would be found out today!
Wu Qingqing bit his lip, with a look of panic in his eyes: "You remember wrong! I wore this dress after returning to Beijing! Not on the day of spring hunting!"
Before Luo Tong could say anything, the ladies beside him had already excitedly taken the lead.
"We remembered correctly! This is what you wore at the bonfire dinner on the day of the spring hunt!"
"Yes! At that time, you came to us specially to show off and compare, saying how precious your dress is!"
After being reminded by these ladies, many people also remembered the situation that day. Such an incident did indeed happen. Wu Qingqing was wearing this outfit at that time.
Wu Qingqing didn't expect that so many people would jump out to testify, and he was so panicked that he finally took over the situation.
"It's just a piece of clothing, what can it prove? I remembered that the blood stain was accidentally stained on it when Qingqing had her menstruation last time. Doesn't this also work?"
Concubine Xu said while winking at Wu Qingqing.
When Wu Qingqing saw it, he nodded quickly and said, "That's right! I got it from my menstruation last month!"
Seeing that the mother and daughter still wanted to deny it, Lindong didn't need to wait for Luo Tong's instructions to speak again.
"Reporting to the princess, I also found an aphrodisiac drug in Miss Qingqing's house. I have asked Elder Xu of Baihua Valley to identify it."
"Elder Xu said that this drug has strong aphrodisiac and hallucinogenic effects. If ordinary people are taken by it, they will not be able to resist it."
As soon as Lindong finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar again!
The fact that Wu Qingqing still has such drugs is obvious!
"You are slandering me! That medicine is not mine! I have never seen anything like this! I don't know where it came from. You must have put it in my house!"
Wu Qingqing immediately panicked and shook his head in denial!
Even this medicine was found!
This was originally something she wanted to use on Zuo Xiyan when she stayed at Baimeiju for the second time, but she never found the opportunity, so it ended up being put aside now!
Luo Tong ignored Wu Qingqing's sophistry and asked Lindong directly: "Someone must have bought this medicine for her. Also, where did she buy this medicine? Have you found out?"
"It has been found out that her personal maid went to get this medicine. The maid has already tortured her and revealed the pharmacy where it was sold." Lindong replied neatly.
"When I was bringing people over, I happened to meet Mr. Zuo's people who were also investigating, so I left the two of them there to help. I brought the maid here first."
Zuo Xiyan's people are also investigating?
Luo Tong glanced at Zuo Xiyan with some surprise, and when she saw the comforting look from the latter, she felt relieved.
No wonder Zuo Xiyan was sitting here without any anxiety at all and chatting with Concubine Xu. It turned out that he was also collecting evidence, and finally found it with Lindong. It seemed that he traced the past through other clues.
"What about the maid?" Luo Tong knew that Lin Dong had taken care of things, and since he had come to Prince Jia's Mansion, he would definitely bring the evidence with him.
"Bring it here." Lindong said and gestured outside. Immediately, two stern-looking guards entered the flower hall carrying a maid.
The maid's hair was messy and she looked a little embarrassed. Although she didn't see any external injuries, she was obviously frightened and was kneeling on the ground shivering.
Luo Tong raised his eyebrows. She recognized this maid as one of the two personal maids around Wu Qingqing. She would take turns accompanying Wu Qingqing out from time to time on weekdays. Today, she was obviously staying in the house.
"Hey! Isn't this maid one of Wu Qingqing's personal maids?"
"Then it can't be wrong! To do this kind of thing, naturally you can only let a confidant like a personal maid do it, so she must have bought the medicine!"
Many of the ladies nearby had already recognized Wu Qingqing's maid and began to speculate on her.
"You actually tied up my maid!" Wu Qingqing tried to cover up his panic with a voice filled with anger.
"I've said before, this is a servant of the palace, not your personal one." Luo Tong replied coldly.
Then, she looked down at the maid and said coldly: "Did you buy the aphrodisiac for your lady? Where did you buy it? What is it used for? Get it from the truth!"
Seeing that Concubine Xu was about to speak, Luo Tong said directly: "If you tell the truth, I will spare your life today and keep your whole family safe. Otherwise, what will be the fate of a slave who betrays his master, and what will be the fate of your whole family!"
She uses both soft and hard tactics, and will never show mercy when threats are necessary!
She had some knowledge of the situation of the servants around Wu Qingqing, and probably knew some of the situation.
The maid in front of me is a son of the royal family, so the whole family is in the royal palace and receives errands from the palace. At the same time, the deed of sale was also signed by the palace.
Hearing what Luo Tong said, the look of panic on the maid's face finally eased, and there was a bit of hope in her eyes.
When something like this happened, the medicine that passed through her hands made it impossible for her to escape this disaster, but Luo Tong said that he could spare her life, which made her hopeful.
Who would want to die if they could live?
"You have to answer the question honestly! If you dare to talk nonsense, you know the consequences!" Concubine Xu Side saw the looseness on the maid's face and glared at her fiercely.
"Concubine Xu Side, who gave you the courage to threaten the witness in front of me?" Luo Tong's cool voice suddenly sounded, and Concubine Xu Side's face suddenly became darker.
Luo Tong's words also made the maid wake up more. The current situation in the West Courtyard and the strength of Princess An were all seen by servants like them.
Which servant in the palace doesn't know that things have changed in the palace, and the one who calls the shots now is Princess An, not the late Princess Xu Zhi at all?
In this case, do you still need to think about whose words you believe? Moreover, Princess An means what she says, and everyone in the palace knows this. Although she is strict, she never treats her servants harshly, but she is not at all like Princess Xu.
In addition, before he was brought, he resisted once, but what happened later...
The maid was filled with fear. She had never known that Lindong next to Princess An could be so terrifying! She never wanted to fall into Lindong's hands again!
Having made up her mind, the maid didn't dare to look at Concubine Xu Side anymore. She stared directly at Luo Tong and said, "Princess, all this is a conspiracy devised by Concubine Side, Miss Qingqing, and Master Zhengqing!"
