Chapter 60 Funeral in the Royal Palace

"The poison of Black Oak was caused by Aunt Qiao. Her daughter Yunying and her son Yuncheng both knew about it."

"The person who took orders from Aunt Qiao was Hui Lan, the maid next to Mrs. Zheng Guo."

Tingwei stated the final review results in a few words, and then handed over the interrogation records with both hands.

Yun Si took it and looked at it. She saw the torture instruments and torture methods written at the beginning at a glance. She quickly passed by without looking at it and only read the confession at the back.

Tingwei was so good at interrogating cases that even specially trained spies couldn't stand their interrogation, let alone concubines like Aunt Qiao.

Yun Si read it over and found that the confessions of Aunt Qiao, Yunying, Yuncheng and Huilan were all consistent.

The result of Tingwei's interrogation did not surprise Yun Si.

However, one point made Yun Si particularly concerned.

——The poison of the oak tree is so unknown that only Dr. Lu in the entire Taiyuan Hospital knows about it.

The black oak grows in the extreme south. How did Aunt Qiao, who had never left the capital, know about the poison of the black oak?

This point was also written in the confession submitted by Tingwei. Aunt Qiao knew about the poison of black oak because she heard it mentioned by a servant boy in her yard.

The boy servant's hometown is in the extreme south, so he might know Black Oak.

But one thing Yun Si had to be concerned about was that the boy servant was bought into the Prime Minister's Mansion two years ago and assigned directly to Aunt Qiao's yard.

Shortly after the servant entered the house, Aunt Qiao heard about the black oak tree and started poisoning her mother...

Is this a coincidence?

Or did someone deliberately send the boy servant to Aunt Qiao?

If it wasn't a coincidence... who sent this boy servant to Aunt Qiao?

The only people who can decide whether the servants in the house should stay or go are the grandmother, father and mother.

Aunt Qiao is an aunt. She cannot buy or sell servants by herself, nor can she decide which servants to use around her.

It was impossible for the mother to poison herself, so only the grandmother and father were left.

Yun Si shuddered.

It was two years ago that the boy servant came to Aunt Qiao's yard!

If there have been quarrels and frictions in the family recently, two years ago at home, the relationship between mother and father was very harmonious, and there were only some minor conflicts between mother and grandmother?

Is it really a coincidence?

Yun Si couldn't understand. Two years ago, who among her father and grandmother would deliberately use such cruel methods to kill her mother?

Xie Yan came out at some point. He stood beside Yun Si. Seeing Yun Si's pale lips and trembling appearance, he could guess what she was thinking at a glance.

"If you want to know the truth, then let Wei Ting interrogate your father and grandmother again."

Xie Yan's tone was very relaxed, as if what he was talking about was not the prime minister and the prime minister's mother at all.

"In less than half a day, everything will be done."

Yun Si looked at Xie Yan: "Aunt Qiao, Yunying and Yuncheng...are they still alive?"

Yun Si thought about the torture techniques she had just accidentally witnessed. Can she still survive after such horrific torture?

Xie Yan: "I won't die in the next few days."

Yun Si shuddered again, does that mean there is no guarantee that she will still be alive in a few days?

At my grandmother's age, if she enters Tingwei... I'm afraid she'll never get out again, right?

Her father is not young anymore... Yun Si can deny her father, but she cannot send her father to Tingwei without any evidence.

Her Liuyun Garden is full of traces of her father's love for her over the past ten years.

"If it weren't for my father... wouldn't he have suffered the interrogation in vain?"

Xie Yan saw that Yun Si could not make up her mind for a while and did not urge her.

Yun Si's family affairs all depend on her own wishes.

Xie Yan doesn't care about the truth, as long as Yun Si is happy.

"What do you want to do with your father's aunt and a pair of children?" Xie Yan asked.

From what Xie Yan said, she could do whatever she wanted.

If she said she wanted three people to die now, Xie Yan would immediately have their heads chopped off.

However, Yun Si didn't want to decide their life or death by herself. She looked at Xie Yan and said, "What should we do according to the law? Just follow the law."

Xie Yan couldn't remember the law clearly, so he turned to look at Ting Wei next to him.

Wei Ting said quickly: "Aunt Qiao and her children should be exiled according to the law."

Yun Si nodded: "Then let's go into exile."

Xie Yan was not interested in the fate of the three people at all.

He turned to look at Yun Si: "Can you fall asleep this time? I'm sleepy."

"Want to sleep in your boudoir, or go back to the palace to sleep?"

Yun Si thought that the two of them had almost lost control in the boudoir just now, so she quickly said: "Go back to the palace and sleep!"
