Chapter 312 It’s Snowing
The doctor examined it carefully and his face became serious. He said in a deep voice: "Princess, there is indeed poison on this handkerchief. This poison is the same as the one that the lady was poisoned with."
Du Yuwei's face changed drastically. She didn't expect her conspiracy to be exposed. She clenched her teeth, and a trace of despair flashed in her eyes.
Du Yunsheng stared at Du Yuwei coldly: "Yuwei, what else do you have to say? Today, I will make you pay for your mother's death!"
Du Yuwei knew that she could no longer defend herself. She gritted her teeth and stared at Du Yunsheng hatefully: "Okay, Du Yunsheng, you win. But I tell you, I won't give up. This struggle has just begun!"
Du Yunsheng's eyes flashed with determination, and she sneered: "Then let's see whether you are more skillful or I, Du Yunsheng, can avenge my grievances!"
Du Yunsheng's words were like ice blades, bitingly cold, while Du Yuwei was like a beast cornered, with a ferocious light flashing in her eyes.
"Princess, why are you doing this?" At this time, a soft voice broke the silence. The speaker was Du Yuwei's personal maid Biluo. She had a worried look on her face and tried to resolve the conflict for the young lady.
Du Yunsheng turned his head and looked at Biluo, his tone still cold: "Biluo, you have nothing to do here, leave."
Biluo hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped aside, secretly worrying about the young lady.
Du Yuwei took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and then slowly said: "Yun Sheng, I know you are resentful of my mother's death, but that is not something I can control. I don't even know how she died."
Du Yunsheng sneered: "Don't know? Do you think I will believe you? You are just like your mother, both are scheming people. I will make you pay the price today and let you taste the feeling of losing your loved ones!"
Du Yuwei's face turned pale in an instant. She bit her lips tightly, and her eyes flashed with complicated emotions. It would be futile to say anything more.
She stared at Du Yunsheng and said firmly: "Yunsheng, I know you hate me, but I don't want the hatred between us to continue. We can find out the truth together. If it is really my mother's fault, I am willing to take the responsibility."
A hint of hesitation flashed across Du Yunsheng's eyes, but it was soon replaced by firm determination. She looked at Du Yuwei coldly: "Do you think I will believe you? Do you think I will let you go if you say a few nice words? You are too naive, Du Yuwei. Today, I will make you taste the pain."
After saying that, Du Yunsheng turned and left, leaving Du Yuwei standing there alone. Du Yuwei clenched her fists tightly, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.
……
The Minister of Justice was very sad.
Du Yunsheng's mother Zhang Qingyu was actually poisoned to death by Du Yunsheng's stepmother Liao and stepsister Du Yuwei.
He inquired about all the details, wrote them down, and presented them to Emperor Jiang Tinghuan.
The Minister of Justice Qin Moxuan, with a solemn expression, gently placed the file in his hand on the imperial desk of Emperor Jiang Tinghuan. The emperor took the file, his eyes deep, slowly unfolded it, and read it seriously.
After the emperor finished reading it, a trace of gloom flashed across his brows. He raised his head and looked at Qin Moxuan with a sharp gaze: "My dear Qin, is this true?"
Qin Moxuan lowered his head slightly, and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I have verified it and the evidence is conclusive and there is no falsehood."
The emperor's expression became increasingly gloomy. He took a deep breath and turned to look at Du Yunsheng. Her pretty face was filled with sadness and anger, and her eyes were flashing with an unyielding light.
"Du Yunsheng, do you know about this?" The emperor's voice was calm.
Du Yunsheng slowly stood up, walked to the emperor, and bowed: "Your Majesty, I do know. For many years, I have been kept in the dark until today. My mother was killed by those two people."
The emperor nodded slightly, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes: "Yun Sheng, you have suffered."
Du Yunsheng shook her head gently: "Your Majesty, I don't feel bitter. My mother's soul in heaven has been vindicated, and I feel a little comforted."
"Your Majesty, I am Du Yuwei, your servant." Du Yuwei lowered her head, her voice trembling.
The emperor looked at her coldly: "Du Yuwei, do you admit your guilt?"
Du Yuwei trembled all over, tears welling up in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I know my crime. What happened back then was because my mother and I were impulsive and made such a big mistake. I am willing to accept any punishment to make up for my crime."
Qin Moxuan looked at Du Yuwei and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. He thought to himself that if it weren't for Du Yunsheng's extraordinary wit, the truth would never come to light.
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Qin Aiqing, you can report this case in detail."
Qin Moxuan took the order and recounted the whole story of the case in detail. His tone was calm, but every word touched the heart, moving everyone present.
After hearing this, the emperor's face became even gloomier. He looked at Du Yuwei and said in a cold tone: "Du Yuwei, you have committed such a crime, which is unforgivable. But considering that you are the princess of Prince Ling, I will allow you to commit suicide to apologize to the world."
Du Yuwei's eyes widened, her face filled with horror. She had not expected the emperor to be so heartless. She wanted to explain, but saw that the emperor had already turned and left.
At this moment, Ling Wang Zheng Zhuoling hurried over. He looked at Du Yuwei, with a flash of determination in his eyes.
"Yuwei, you have committed such a crime, I can no longer forgive you." Zheng Zhuoling's voice was cold. He turned and looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead the army to conquer the enemy country to make up for Yuwei's crime."
The emperor looked at Zheng Zhuoling, with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Zhuoling, I am very pleased that you have this intention. I will grant your request and lead the army to conquer the enemy country. You must return victorious."
Zheng Zhuoling took the order and turned to leave.
The emperor returned to the dragon throne and looked at Du Yunsheng with a gentle tone: "Yunsheng, don't worry, I will definitely seek justice for your mother."
Du Yunsheng smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I believe in you."
……
The next day.
"Snowing."
Du Yunsheng came to the window and looked at the goose feather-like snowflakes slowly falling from the sky.
Du Yunsheng's eyes reflected the scene of snowflakes dancing, and a sense of inexplicable melancholy surged in her heart. She turned around, and the maid Xiang Zhu immediately came to greet her.
Xiang Zhu asked softly, "Princess, it's snowing outside, do you want to change into thicker clothes?"
Du Yunsheng shook his head slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "No need, I like this snow. Xiang Zhu, what do you think this snow looks like?"
Xiang Zhu thought for a moment and replied, "I feel that this snow is like pearls scattered by fairies from heaven, pure and flawless."
Du Yunsheng smiled, with admiration in his eyes: "Well said. Xiang Zhu, go and invite the prince over, I want to enjoy the snow with him."
Xiang Zhu took the order and left. After a while, the prince Jiang Shaohan came in. He was wearing a dark blue robe, tall and handsome. When he saw Du Yunsheng, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Yun Sheng, what's the matter with you calling me here?" Jiang Shaohan asked.
Du Yunsheng pointed out the window: "It's snowing, I want to enjoy it with you."
Jiang Shaohan walked to the window, looked at the falling snow, and smiled: "This snow is really beautiful, just like a fairyland."
