TISHW 141




 Chapter 141 Noble circle truly chaotic 5

Probably everyone couldn't stand Qin Shiyu's perversion, they didn't respond to his words anymore and quickly moved to the next venue.

There were no additional discoveries in the rooms of Prince Xiang, Empress Jiang and Study Companion Jian. However, in Princess Huahua's room, they found that one of the 12 white porcelain jade bottles in a box was missing. This confirmed what she said about throwing away saccharin. Later, the formula for the "Sweet Trap" poison was found at Top Scholar Ye's home, with the word ‘Jiang’ written underneath.

"Did Empress Jiang give you your poison formula?" Jian Cang asked.

Ye Yuanyu nodded, "I heard from her that there was a poison that was very similar to saccharin powder. So I used a handkerchief and a bell as a means to threaten her into copying the recipe to me." 

At this point, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Now it seems, I wasn’t coercing her, but more like her plotting against me, right?”

"Deducing it like this, Princess Huahua was the one who did it?" Jian Cang turned to Shu Hua, "The bottle of medicine that Top Scholar Ye gave you was poison and you sprinkled the bottle of medicine on the cake and presented it to the emperor. .”

Shu Hua looked at Ye Yuanyu. Ye Yuanyu had no choice but to defend, "I have a bottle of poison. But after I gave you the real saccharin powder, I knew that I would not be able to implement the plan today. Afraid of being found out and getting into trouble, I threw away the bottle with poison.”

But this didn't sound credible. What’s more, no one found the poison bottle where he said he threw the bottle.

In the end, a bottle of poison was found in the old emperor's room. Ye Yuanyu wondered, "Why is the poison I threw away here?"

Jiang Yu said, "The people below picked it up and gave it to me. I was dancing for the emperor at that time, so I casually put it here."

Ye Yuanyu asked, "Before the birthday banquet officially started, you were dancing for the emperor? Weren't you at Crown Prince Qin's place?"

Jiang Yu said, "I was at Crown Prince Qin's place two hours before the birthday banquet started. I returned to the emperor one hour before it started. He asked me to dance for him."

There was no doubt about this. Empress Jiang was brought into the palace by the old emperor because of her graceful dancing posture.

Moreover, the portrait on the table proved that what Empress Jiang said was true. It was a charming woman with a bright red dance dress, long arms stretched out, and a soft waist. She was obviously dancing, but the woman’s facial features haven’t been painted yet. While the hands and forearms were colored. The golden bells on the wrists were even more vivid.

Xiang Chen said, "The emperor's painting habit is quite strange? Normally, isn’t it finish painting before putting color?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shiyu stared at the portrait carefully. Jian Cang suddenly exclaimed, "Wow, there is more exciting information here!"

The group gathered over closer and discovered that it was Top Scholar Ye's background that the old emperor got the shadow guards to investigate.

Jian Cang looked at Ye Yuanyu, "Top Scholar Ye, you aren’t the son of Emperor Jing. You are the son of the old emperor!"

Everyone was shocked.

It turned out that after the old emperor sought power and usurped the throne, he needed the support of a strong in-law. So he forcibly married the Empress Song. Whether it was for stability of the country or stabilizing the Song Family, his first prince had to be from Empress Song. So he decided to get rid of a pregnant concubine in his backyard.

That concubine was Top Scholar Ye's mother. In the end, it was still his own flesh and blood. So he didn't kill her. The concubine ran away with a pregnant belly and hadn’t been heard from since.

Xiang Chen said, "So Top Scholar Ye, your mom took you to hide here and there and refused to let you come to the capital, not because you are a descendant of the previous emperor, but because she was worried that the emperor would kill you in order to consolidate the imperial power."

"But with the birth of Prince Qin and the emperor knowing that it wasn't his child, his mind began to change. As well as being his first son, you are so outstanding too. He was quite ecstatic. When taking you with him at any time and passing on the emperor’s skills, he wasn’t testing you, but to teach you. He was so eager to depose the crown prince because of your appearance..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Jian Cang said, "Every bite and every sip being preordained explains the cause and effect..."

Shu Hua looked at Ye Yuanyu, "So we are siblings?!"

Qin Shiyu drawled out from the side, "It's even more impossible for you two. Hurry up and marry Prince Xiang."

Shu Hua rolled her eyes at him and didn't want to pay attention to him.

Jiang Yu was afraid that he would involve her again and interjected, "So Top Scholar Ye killed his biological father?"

Ye Yuanyu said, "I told you that I didn't kill him. I didn't have time to implement the plan."

Others naturally didn't believe it, Xiang Chen said with a smile, "Everyone says they aren’t the murderer."

"Let me summarize the current situation. It is now certain that the emperor died because of the 'Sweet Trap' poison. The recipe for this poison actually came from Empress Jiang. After she found out about the emperor's preferences and cooperated with me inside and outside, we released a bait to make a cream cake for the emperor. Princess Huahua made it herself. It’s unknown what Crown Prince Qin had done, but Top Scholar Ye got the poison formula by threatening Empress Jiang."

"What happened next was that both the Crown Prince and Top Scholar Ye wanted to use Princess Huahua's hands to sprinkle poison on the cake. However, the Crown Prince was unable to complete the key poison exchange link due to the private meeting between Princess Huahua and Top Scholar Ye and had to give up temporarily. Because Top Scholar Ye was soft-hearted toward Princess Huahua, he finally gave up the frame-up and gave her real saccharin powder."

"But these are all one-sided stories. There are suspicions. In the same way, although Princess Huahua has no motive, the bottle of saccharin powder Top Scholar Ye gave you, you can't be sure whether it was saccharin powder or a 'sweet trap'. So it’s still uncertain whether it was you who did it or not.”

"And Study Companion Jian had a white porcelain jade bottle on him. He said he picked up Princess Huahua's saccharin powder bottle, but in fact what it is is unknown. You cannot be determined yet."

"And Empress Jiang..." Xiang Chen looked at Jiang Yu, "In the end, you cut the cake for the emperor. You are a suspect too."

The whole process was still confusing.

The loudspeaker of the program team sounded: "Next, it's time to test everyone's observation and reasoning abilities. Please vote who of the six suspects is the murderer based on their own speculations. If the real murderer is voted out, the rest wins, be awarded the title of investigator of this episode, and receive a bonus; on the contrary, if the murderer wins, the bonus of this period will belong to the murderer alone."

Everyone rubbed their hands. Then they entered the trial room one by one to vote. Those who didn't enter were scattered in various corners for final analysis.

Qin Shiyu walked up to Jiang Yu and asked, "Who do you think it is?"

Jiang Yu put on a thoughtful expression, "I think Ye Yuanyu is more suspicious."

Qin Shiyu said casually, "Then vote for him."

Jiang Yu felt his tone was strange and couldn't help but look at him suspiciously.

Qin Shiyu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "What? Has little Royal Mother finally discovered my charm?"

Jiang Yu:……

This person was too into character. Didn't want to be teased, she asked directly, "Who do you think is it?"

Qin Shiyu looked down at her and suddenly smiled, "Isn't it you?"

Jiang Yu's heart skipped a beat, but on the surface she appeared innocent, "No, how could it be me?"

Qin Shiyu rubbed his chin and hesitated, "Should I vote for you?"

Jiang Yu said, "Of course not."

Qin Shiyu looked at her, "Want to win?"

Jiang Yu said, "Of course, who doesn't want to win?"

"Okay." Qin Shiyu smiled lazily. Xiang Chen came out at this time. It was Qin Shiyu’s turn to go in. Before going in, he suddenly raised his hand and gently rang the bell on Jiang Yu's wrist, and smiled meaningfully, "Then I'll listen to you. Who told me to like you?"

Jiang Yu:……

 Audiences:【……】

【Did he have an aphrodisiac today? Keep oozing all the time. 】

【Am I the only one curious about what he means? Is he being flirty, or is the murderer really Empress Jiang? 】

【It’s a bit like a simple flirt, but I think the murderer might really be Empress Jiang? 】

【Whether it's flirting or not, as always people can’t figure our God Yu out. 】

Fortunately, after entering the trial room, Qin Shiyu directly gave everyone the answer, "The murderer should be Empress Jiang."

The audience was all shocked. Based on the voting analysis of Jian Cang and Xiang Chen in the first two rounds, everyone basically felt that the murderer was between Ye Yuanyu and Qin Shiyu. However, as soon as Qin Shiyu opened his mouth, it was someone everyone never thought of.

He was heard analyzing, "Perhaps everyone thinks that Empress Jiang is the person who arranged the arrangements, so she didn't need to use her own hands. But that isn't the case."

"She told everyone the emperor's preferences and provided poison formulas to Top Scholar Ye and I, who are the most capable. But these were to muddy the water. It would be best if we could kill the emperor. But if we can't, she can use it to frame others. Therefore to ensure nothing went wrong, she still did it herself."

"Still remember that two hours before the birthday banquet, she went to Crown Prince Qin’s, that is, my place. She knew that Crown Prince Qin had bad intentions toward her, but at this time, she not only didn't avoid, but instead went to bump into him. Why? Because she needed to go to Crown Prince Qin’s to get poison."

"Yes, being careful, she didn’t make the poison herself, but wanted to get it ready-made from Crown Prince Qin. Crown Prince Qin indeed took her back to his room. Do you still remember the bell that fell by the bed? A container for poison can be a bottle or something else. It can be put in her bell and not catch anyone’s eye.”

 "Also the painting in the old emperor's room. This is the details. In the portrait, Empress Jiang's facial features and posture were very rough, but only the hand was fine and beautiful, especially the string of bells. Because he liked her hands and bells... And two hours before the banquet officially started, Empress Jiang was dancing for the old emperor."

"A lustful emperor with a fetish for hands and Empress Jiang with beautiful hands, you can guess what will happen."

"So, the emperor should have eaten the poison through Empress Jiang's bell before eating the cake. She only had to sprinkle some of the remaining poison on the cake when everyone panicked and went to check on the emperor, this way it looks like the emperor was poisoned by the cake and only needed to frame it on me or Ye Yuanyu."

【Oh my god, I’m getting goosebumps. 】

【Like I said, Empress Jiang’s character is so impressive. There were so many details that weren’t used in the end, so this is the truth. 】

【When God Yu isn't perverted, he is awesome...]

【That said, he is still as awesome when he is perverted. 】

While the audience was laughing and joking, Qin Shiyu picked up a name tag and put it into the trial box after the analysis. Like the previous two people, the camera didn't film who they voted for in order to maintain suspense.

After he came out, Jiang Yu, Shu Hua and Ye Yuanyu entered the trial room one after another. Their analysis was similar. However, the audience who already knew the truth had to sigh when they saw Jiang Yu's serious nonsense:

【If God Yu’s analysis wasn’t so convincing, I would really believe her. 】

【ROFL, she is very convincing. 】

【Of course, don’t underestimate my Elder Sister Yu’s ability. I guess if she couldn’t lie, her logic would be even more impeccable. 】

However, the game had rules. Jiang Yu being the culprit was a fact. She could mislead, but she couldn’t deceive.

After everyone finished voting, the program team began to announce the murderer everyone voted for this episode. The group exchanged glances. The atmosphere began to become tense.

"First, announce the contestants who received 0 votes..."

Jian Cang said, "I think it must be me. Compared with Top Scholar Ye and Crown Prince Qin, my suspicion is too small."

Xiang Chen said, "I should be one of them. I was very cautious and only contributed the recipe."

The two looked at Jiang Yu again, "You should be too."

Jiang Yu didn't say anything. She would have been very confident before, but Qin Shiyu seemed to have analyzed the truth. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Qin Shiyu. At the same time, the program team announced the three people who received 0 votes: " Companion Jian, Prince Xiang and Empress Jiang!"

Jiang Yu's eyes widened in surprise. The audience was shocked: 【Qin Shiyu, what's the matter with you? After analyzing for a long time, no one vote the real culprit? 】

【Is he going to carry out his love brain progress to the end today? 】

Qin Shiyu looked at Jiang Yu and smiled, "Why are you surprised? Don't you want to win?"

Jiang Yu said, "You don't want to win?" 

Qin Shiyu lowered his eyes and looked at her, saying half seriously and half jokingly, "Some things are more important than winning."

Shu Hua was asking why someone would vote for her. When she looked back and heard this sentence, she immediately retorted loudly, "What is more important here than winning?"

The audience laughed:

【No, Qin Shiyu is the only one in the 'All Rounder' group who doesn't care so much about winning or losing. 】

【What is more important than winning? Please your wife? 】

【Ahhhhh, I’m eating it up again! 】

Qin Shiyu smiled and said nothing. The program team began to announce the results of the remaining three people: Shu Hua received one vote, Qin Shiyu received two votes, and Ye Yuanyu received three votes.

"Ye Yuanyu had been identified as the murderer! Please put on the shackles."

Two men in black came up and handcuffed Ye Yuanyu to the wall. He sighed helplessly, "We lost. I'm really not the murderer!"

Shu Hua was doubtful, "You are still lying to us at this time."

Ye Yuanyu stopped talking. Anyway, the matter was a foregone conclusion and there was nothing to say.

His reaction made the group start to murmur in their hearts. Xiang Chen said, "Is it really not him? It’s Crown Prince Qin?"

Qin Shiyu still had his lazy expression. Everyone couldn't discern anything. They could only anxiously wait for the program team to announce the results.

"The vote for this case is deemed a..."

Everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and stared at the speakers. Fortunately, the program team didn't drag it, "Failure!"

As soon as the word "failure" came out, everyone's eyes widened. Jian Cang said, "How is it possible?"

Shu Hua turned to Qin Shiyu, "Was it you? How did put the poison? Your poison bottle was clearly full."

Qin Shiyu smiled slightly and took a step back, revealing Jiang Yu hiding behind him.

Only then did everyone realize that she had a cunning smile on her face.

Shu Hua couldn't believe it, "It's you?! How is that possible? Why?! You don't even have the tools to commit the crime."

The speaker of the program team explained, "The real murderer is Empress Jiang. The key evidence that everyone missed was the bell on her wrist. If you search carefully, you can see the white powder remaining inside."

"She used Crown Prince Qin, getting the poison from him and then danced for the emperor. The emperor had a fetish for hands and ate the poison on her bell at that time..."

It was exactly the same as Qin Shiyu’s analysis.

Only……

Shu Hua angrily puffed at Qin Shiyu, "If you haven't been harassing people at the time! I had even checked the fingernails. How could I not look at the bell?"

Qin Shiyu affirmatively stated, "You won't look. You’ll be taking advantage of the other party."

Shu Hua:......

Ye Yuanyu observed Qin Shiyu's expression, "Did you know it's Empress Jiang?"

Qin Shiyu didn't deny it, nodded, “En, I know."

The group were speechless, Jian Cang expressed the same doubts as the audience, "You know that Empress Jiang is the real murderer, then why didn't you tell us and didn't vote for her?"

Even Jiang Yu looked over curiously. Qin Shiyu smiled lazily, "Why vote for her? She killed the old emperor who wanted to kill me for me. I couldn’t thank her enough."

"And, with this weakness, she has to obey my words..."

Everyone:...

【He was thinking of something. Reaching the end, his smile gradually changed into pervertedness. 】

【Of course you need to seize little Royal Mother’s weakness and you can do that...]

【No, I'm going to change color again. 】

【Hahaha, I feel like he enjoys this role. 】

Shu Hua wanted to shake him awake, "Elder Brother, wake up. It's time get out of character! We are a crime-solving program, not a series!"

Jiang Yu couldn't bear it and covered her eyes. She sincerely asked the program team, "Is it okay if I surrender?"

Qin Shiyu seemed to have thought of something, "No, you knew the emperor wanted to kill me, but you still helped me kill him. Is it because of love, right?" 

His eyes were full of affection, "Don't worry, I won't let you down."

Jiang Yu:……

She ran directly toward the audience, seeking for help for once, "Help! I was wrong."

It made everyone laugh uncontrollably.

【Hahahaha, what kind of crazy love brain is this? It can actually drive our Elder Sister Yu crazy. 】

【It’s so hilarious! This episode didn’t show the solving of the case at all, it focused on their emotional entanglement. 】

【But Crown Prince Qin and little Royal Mother got so much feel and so much sugar to feed on? I want to see it, hahahaha. 】

【Want to see +1】

【I’m a little curious, what would it be like if God Yu really dated? Will he be this doting, or will he be this crazy? 】
