C10 It must be Her

Bai Suyue frowned. She had been thinking how she would explain herself once the coroner found out that the man had been killed by the force of the fall. But now, it seemed that she had completely forgotten about the Scarlet Hairpin that she had left behind on his chest.

"My daughter doesn't want to defend herself. I believe Lord Fuyin will get enough evidence to find out who the real culprit is!"

Bai Suyue finally understood why Fuyin called her to come to the government office.

If a normal nobody died, and it involved the General's Estate and the crown prince, the authorities would naturally have a way to handle it cleanly. But now, it involved the young master of the Shang Shu family, which was no longer a small matter.

"But there is evidence!"

Fuyin's expression was dark as he instructed the coroner to carefully remove the Scarlet Hairpin from the man's chest.

Looking at the familiar object, Yan Yingrou subconsciously touched her head. Her face instantly turned pale.

Furthermore, that Scarlet Hairpin was the only dowry her mother had left her after she had entered the General's Estate.

Bai Suyue looked at the Scarlet Hairpin with a serene gaze, Yan Yingrou's pale face made her feel extremely comfortable in her heart.

"Is this Miss Bai's item?"

Fuyin asked in a deep voice. Bai Suyue's lips curled up into a smile as she said, "Sir, you should look carefully before coming here to ask!"

Look clearly... Fuyin was stunned. He took the Scarlet Hairpin and looked carefully, a row of small words was carved on the silver Scarlet Hairpin.

Yan Yingrou!

Fuyin couldn't help but mutter. Yan Yingrou's face turned pale and her eyes turned red.

"Yue Er, why did you do this?"

Yan Yingrou looked at Bai Suyue with tears streaming down her face. Disappointment could be seen in her eyes.

Feng Muling's heart ached when he saw how miserably Lili had been bullied. He spoke coldly, interrupting Fuyin's questioning of Lili.

"Fuyin, the facts are clear, isn't they? She is the murderer of the son of the Minister of Revenue, Rou is just a woman, she doesn't even want to kill a mouse. As the crown prince and Rou entered the room together, she doesn't have the time and motive to kill, right?"

Fuyin's eyes flickered slightly. Looking at Yan Yingrou who looked like she was about to shrink into the crown prince's arms, his heart skipped a beat.

He glanced at Bai Suyue with a troubled look and suddenly felt sorry for her.

Who didn't know that Bai Suyue was the publicly acknowledged fiancee of the crown prince, and the emperor had even personally decreed it? But now, the crown prince had pushed her down the chasm without any hesitation in order to protect another girl.

The identity of the deceased was special, so he had no choice but to take this matter to heart. Moreover, he had to give the Minister of Revenue an explanation.

Bai Suyue's heart went numb when she heard the unreasonable and unreasonable words coming out from Feng Muling's mouth.

She already knew that Feng Muling would change his bottom line again and again.

As the current crown prince, he didn't even look at the evidence before changing the outcome between her and Yan Yingrou with just a few words. The look in his eyes made it seem as if he was going to make her a prisoner.

"Since this lady has Crown Prince's protection, this humble subject can't make things difficult for you. But Miss Bai, it seems like you are the most suspicious one now. I'll make it difficult for Miss Bai to be a guest at the manor until the truth is confirmed!"

Bai Suyue pursed her lips, her expression cold and fierce.

Yan Yingrou shrunk her neck back and looked pitifully at Feng Muling, tightly grabbing his sleeve.

"If General Bai finds out about this, he definitely won't let me off. Rou should take the initiative to avenge elder sister Yue Er, but …" "But Rou can't do it. That's the truth. Rou doesn't dare to lie!"

His words were extremely emotional, and anyone who heard them would feel touched.

Feng Muling's eyes were filled with pity. He touched Yan Yingrou's face and determination flashed through his eyes.

"Rou, don't worry. In a while, follow me into the palace. I'll definitely tell my mother and let you become my secondary concubine!"

Yan Yingrou's eyes flashed. She gripped her sleeves tightly.

This result was completely different from what she wanted. She didn't want to be a side concubine! But now, Bai Suyue suddenly became different from before. She was very flustered and couldn't convince Feng Muling as things were wrong.

Crown Princess's position would definitely be hers.
