Back to the day I married my second wife, I turned around and married my ex-husband's uncle

Chapter 443 Mo Xuzi admitted

Seeing that she suddenly calmed down, Mo Xuzi was a little surprised. After a moment of hesitation, he asked in surprise: "Were you pretending just now?"

"Your mother died so tragically, yet you reacted like this. If your mother knew, she would be so heartbroken!"

Mo Xuzi spoke in a tone like an elder lecturing.

Jiang Ningwan smiled coldly after hearing this, "You made up these lies yourself, do you believe them yourself?"

"You say my mother is strong-willed and proud, but a person with such a strong will and pride has thousands of ways to die. How could she beg you for help?"

These words couldn't be more false.

Mo Xuzi simply wanted to tell her how tragically her mother died, in order to make her hate Qin Shuangchi.

But he ignored the fact that these lies were full of loopholes and could not deceive her at all.

Mo Xuzi continued stubbornly, angrily saying, "That's because I have a good relationship with your mother! That's why she begged me!"

Jiang Ningwan snorted coldly, "Who do you think you are? My mother hasn't even begged my father, so how could she beg you?"

"You said you had a good relationship with my mother, so why didn't you save her? Why did you let her die?"

"Do you think you can fool me by telling a few lies? Don't you even look at yourself? People who do all kinds of evil things are disgusting. Nothing they say can convince anyone!"

From the moment Mo Xuzi opened his mouth, one could sense that he was planning something.

Mo Xuzi also became anxious, "You! You are so confused!"

"I have fallen into the hands of the King of Chu and will surely die. How could I lie to you?"

Jiang Ningwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Is this your mission before you die?"

"Let me hate the King of Chu to the core, and I will kill him in your place."

"I really want to know what that person gave you to make you work for him so loyally."

After being exposed by Jiang Ningwan, Mo Xuzi's face turned very ugly.

"You are so stubborn! You will regret it sooner or later!" After saying this, Mo Xuzi closed his eyes and didn't intend to pay any more attention to her.

Jiang Ningwan smiled coldly, "Why? You can't make it up?"

Seeing that Mo Xuzi didn't say anything more, Jiang Ningwan turned and left.

It was already dawn when I walked out of the prison.

There was no one guarding the secret prison, and Jiang Ningwan felt a little worried.

Zhu Xingtian said, "Don't worry, he's imprisoned here. This prison is full of traps, and he won't be able to escape. This Tianji Pavilion prison has been built for decades, and no one has ever managed to escape."

Jiang Ningwan finally felt relieved.

She asked Zhu Xingtian to get some medicinal herbs, and she prepared an antidote. After boiling the medicine, she gave it to the poisoned person and went to her room to rest.

Jiang Ningwan slept until the afternoon. Zhu Xingtian had someone prepare lunch. Jiang Ningwan saw that Qin Shuangchi was not there, so she asked and found out that he had gone to the secret prison.

Without even having time to eat, she rushed to the secret cell.

When he arrived, Mo Xuzi had already been severely tortured and was covered in blood.

Qin Shuangchi, who was sitting on the chair, had a sinister look in his eyes and a cold aura around him, like a demon from hell who kills without blinking an eye.

Mo Xuzi saw Jiang Ningwan and suddenly laughed.

"See? This is his true face. He's ruthless and kills without blinking an eye. How is he any different from me?"

Xiao Lan was startled when he saw Jiang Ningwan coming. He walked over quickly and said, "Madam..."

Jiang Ningwan walked over and said, "It's not the first day I've known him, why would you bother talking here?"

She sat down on the chair next to her and crossed her legs leisurely.

Asked Qin Shuangchi: "He hasn't made any moves yet? Do you want to change some moves?"

Qin Shuangchi was still a little nervous, but when he heard this, he immediately relaxed.

The corners of his lips slightly raised.

"Okay, what's your plan?"

Jiang Ningwan took out two medicine bottles and said, "He's good at using poison, so let him try my poison. It won't hurt, but it will itch incredibly hard, so itchy that it'll make you scratch your heart and liver."

Qin Shuangchi immediately signaled Xiao Lan to take action.

Xiao Lan decisively picked up the medicine bottle, sat down with Mo Xuzi, pried open Mo Xuzi's mouth and fed the poison into him.

"You old thing, you're still trying to sow discord between our prince and his wife! I don't think you'll cry until you see the coffin!"

Soon after swallowing the poison, Mo Xuzi's face became obviously painful. He twisted his body desperately, trying to scratch his itch, but his hands were tied and he could only struggle desperately.

I couldn't stand it after a while.

"I say! Give me... give me the antidote!"

Xiao Lan gave him the antidote.

Mo Xuzi panted for a long time before he calmed down.

She raised her eyes and looked at Qin Shuangchi, "You already knew it, didn't you? Why are you still asking me?"

Qin Shuangchi's expression was cold, "I want to hear it from you."

After a moment of silence, Mo Xuzi slowly spoke: "Yes, I work for the emperor."

"Killing you was his order."

"It was a great opportunity back then, but it only made you lame and didn't take your life."

"You have been a thorn in his side all these years."

After getting this answer, Qin Shuangchi slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Although he already knew the answer, when he heard the truth from the person who hurt him, all the uncertainty and hesitation over the years disappeared in that moment.

When he opened his eyes again, there was only coldness and murderous intent in his eyes.

The cold voice sounded again: "He wants to kill me because he is afraid of me. What about Prince Yi? Why does he want to kill Prince Yi? Kill Prince Yi's wife?"

The medicine for Princess Yi was given by Mo Xuzi. It caused Princess Yi headaches for so many years and she slowly died.

And why.

Mo Xuzi answered truthfully: "I don't know, I just followed orders."

"I only know that he's looking for something of Prince Yi's that's related to the late emperor. I don't know what it is specifically, and I've never found it."

"He suspected that Prince Yi was hiding, so he ordered me to investigate Princess Yi, and therefore he didn't kill her directly."

"I used poison to keep her alive. I hinted many times that to cure her disease, very expensive herbs would be needed. I asked her to exchange something important from Prince Yi's lifetime, but she gave me a bunch of junk instead."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's heart tightened, "Then Qin Suyi's death is also related to this thing?"

Mo Xuzi's brows showed a trace of confusion, "Qin Suyi? I don't know her."

It seems that Mo Xuzi just arrived in Daning and doesn't know who Qin Suyi is.

Qin Shuangchi asked coldly, "You've been searching for the emperor for so many years. I don't believe you don't know what you're looking for."

After saying that, he waved his hand lightly.

Xiao Lan was about to step forward with the poison in his hand.

Mo Xuzi quickly spoke up: "I suspect it should be a will."

"When the emperor first ascended the throne, many people around Prince Yi were killed. I was the one who did it."

"I suspect it's the late emperor's will that makes the emperor so wary."

"It is said that the late emperor summoned Prince Yi before his death. He must have suspected that the edict was in Prince Yi's hands."

Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan's eyebrows jumped.

Will?

Could it be that the will stated that there was someone else who would pass on the throne?

No wonder the emperor killed so many people just for this will.

Even Princess Yi's illegitimate daughter was not spared.

Qin Suyi really suffered an unexpected disaster.

She had never met Prince Yi, but under Qin Beihuang's deception, she lied that she had seen Prince Yi since she was a child, and that Prince Yi had come to see her before his death.

He misled the emperor into thinking that Prince Yi had handed the will to Qin Suyi.

Even Nanny Qin Suyi's grave was dug up.

After listening to this, Qin Shuangchi also fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he sneered, "Last Will?"

"If the late emperor had another will, how could he have passed the throne to him?"

"It's just suspicion."
