Gong Xiaoxuan's actions could only be described as fast. Just as morning, he had just agreed to host the court and seek out the true culprits behind the deaths of the Emperor and the crown prince, news had spread in the afternoon that he had found them.

Inside Supreme Harmony Hall, Gong Xiaoxuan sat on the highest seat and watched the court officials arrive in groups of three or five. An unfathomable curve appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Gong Xiaoxuan's dark eyes slowly swept across everyone in the hall. The depth in his eyes became even deeper, and his mouth hooked up into a sneer: "This king promised all the ministers that they would work hard to find the real culprit that murdered the crown prince and Emperor, so I went to the crown prince's mansion to check on the situation in the Royal Younger Brother, and in the end, I discovered something very interesting."

Everyone was puzzled. What was this interesting? Wasn't the crown prince in a coma?

Gong Xiaoxuan did not keep them in suspense, and directly indicated to the people around him, and then someone went out to bring a few people in.

Everyone looked closely and saw that it was Imperial Physician Wang, Imperial Physician Li, Imperial Physician Wei, and Imperial Physician Zhang. Last time, they came to Supreme Harmony Hall to prove that the Princess An had poisoned the Emperor. Everyone began to speculate.

"This old official greets Prince An."

It was still the same boring and dry greeting, even the same. Gong Xiaoxuan's eyes flashed a look of playfulness, and he waved them to get up.

"This prince doesn't specialize in medicine. When I heard that the crown prince had fainted for no reason, I specially went to Imperial Hospital to bring a few imperial physicians with superb medical skills over. As for the interesting things, I might as well ask Imperial Physician Wang to tell everyone."

Gong Xiaoxuan's words were reasonable, but cold sweat trickled down Imperial Physician Wang's forehead when he was called out, and he replied hesitantly, "This old subject obeys."

"After His Highness the Crown Prince fainted, the butler of the Crown Prince's Palace came to invite them to the Imperial Hospital. At that time, this humble official was on duty, but when he heard the situation, he hurriedly followed them.

However, after arriving at the crown prince's residence, he discovered that the crown prince's entire body was covered in wounds, his flesh was mangled and his veins and muscles were injured. The perpetrator was extremely cruel, but fortunately the wound was not fatal. However, the crown prince had not woken up since taking the medicine, and when I checked his pulse, I found that his pulse was extremely similar to that of the unconscious Emperor.

Today, we, the imperial physicians, have followed Prince An to the crown prince's residence to make another detailed examination. We have confirmed that the crown prince and the Emperor are infected by the same poison. "

It wasn't a very long sentence, but Imperial Physician Wang continued to speak for a long time, his voice hoarse. But this didn't affect the meaning of his words.

The crown prince was not unconscious for no reason. Instead, he had been poisoned and passed out. The people from the crown prince's residence were still holding onto the news and refusing to say anything.

A few days ago, a few imperial physicians came to the Supreme Harmony Hall together and told the crown prince that the poison in the crown prince's body was unique to the Princess An and that they had almost sent him to the guillotine. Currently, the Princess An was still in prison.

And this crown prince was poisoned by the same poison after he was imprisoned in Princess An, Princess An couldn't possibly fly out of prison to the crown prince's mansion to injure and then poison the crown prince, right?

After figuring out the details, everyone's expressions changed when they saw the imperial physicians. If they didn't give a reasonable explanation, it was likely that not only the officials wouldn't be satisfied, the cold faced Prince An sitting in the highest seat would make things difficult for them.

Gong Xiaoxuan's entire body was instantly covered in cold Qi, his eyes were filled with cold Qi, but at the same time, he did not seem to be hysterical, just that the aura caused one's heart to become anxious.

"If this king remembers correctly, a few days ago several imperial physicians said that the Emperor's poison was unique to the Princess An. Now that the Princess An is still in prison, and the crown prince has been poisoned by the same poison, how do you explain that?"

Gong Xiaoxuan kept pressing further and further, as if he wanted to hear a response from the imperial physicians. The court officials who usually stood by the Prince An's side also agreed.

All the imperial physicians had cold sweat trickling down their faces, their bodies trembling slightly.

Although the Rui Crow inside the poison was rare, and Princess An had it, it was not to the extent that only Baili Jinxiu had it. According to their knowledge, the Imperial Hospital only had two Rui Wu's in its collection, but very few people knew about them.

And the reason why they had slandered Baili Jinxiu as the only person to possess the Rui Wu was because of someone supporting them from behind. Under such circumstances, there was simply no way to refute them.

All of the imperial physicians looked at each other, the Imperial Physician Wang standing at the head wiped the sweat off his forehead, and all of them kneeled down, his voice tinged with tears. "This old subject deserves to die. Back then, I was possessed and forced to lie in front of the palace.

Suddenly, the Imperial Physicians said they were being coerced. Who was it that could coerce the Imperial Physician? If the Princess An was slandered, would the Prince An let go of these imperial physicians?

Gong Xiaoxuan saw that everyone's gaze was on him, and his eyes dimmed. He stared fixedly at the imperial physician who knelt down, and spoke coldly: "If you plead guilty now, you can still handle it lightly."

Handle it lightly? A few imperial physicians' eyes immediately lit up when they heard these words. The hesitation in their hearts was cast away. Imperial Physician Wei, who was originally curled up to the side, quickly spoke up.

"The criminal is willing to plead guilty. The one who threatened us is His Highness, the Crown Prince."

The ones who threatened the imperial physicians by slandering the Princess An were His Highness the Crown Prince, but then he thought about it, this seemed to be the most logical, the ones who were most likely to rise to the top were the Prince An and the Crown Prince, and once the Princess An fell, it would directly affect the entire Prince An.

Imperial Physician Wei did not pay attention to the surprised looks on the court officials' faces as he continued, "His Highness the Crown Prince has come to us, saying that if we do not do as he says, we will make sure that the families of these officials die without a burial ground. As sinners, we are all people from the same family, so we cannot bear to send someone with black hair for no reason.

A few of the imperial physicians by the side also nodded their heads in agreement. Imperial Physician Wei's words had thoroughly confirmed the fact that the crown prince was coercing them.

However, the court officials did not sympathize with them, and only stared at Gong Xiaoxuan. Being slandered by the crown prince in such a way, Prince An would definitely punish these imperial physicians with rage.

To everyone's surprise, there was not a single ripple on Gong Xiaoxuan's handsome face, nor was he flustered and exasperated like everyone had imagined. He only looked at Temple of The Magistrate with cold eyes.

"Since you've confirmed that the Princess An is slandered, then?"

Gong Xiaoxuan did not directly say what he wanted to do, but the long tail caused Temple of The Magistrate's heart to tremble, and he promptly replied: "This humble subject will go and instruct the Princess An to release him right now."

A trace of gentleness flashed across Gong Xiaoxuan's eyes, and he said softly: "There's no need, this king will personally go and fetch Princess An."
