Huanan He sat on the fauteuil with joy.

It was great that someone responded positively to the idea that he had just come up with.

He closed the folding fan and tapped his palm lightly with it, making a rhythmic sound. And then he said.

"Okay. So please have a try first."

With a light smile, Huanan He turned his eyes quietly and looked at the target in the crowd.

At this moment, the man was standing quietly at the end of the team with an uptight and anxious expression.

A bright cold light flashed past Huanan He's eyes. He showed a faint smile and then turned his attention to the test result of the envoy from Boni.

Standing in front of the table, the white-bearded old man couldn't wait to raise his right hand. He put his hand into the hole of the golden box quickly, probing the bottom.

Huanan He looked at the old man's fearless and peaceful expression, smiling.

"Lord, please take your hand out."

The old man followed his words.

"Your Highness, please look."

When his right hand came out of the golden box, it was still clean.

Huanan He raised his head, saying, "Great. There is no mark on his hand, which means that he is not the murderer."

The old man spread out his five fingers and laughed excitedly. He turned around and raised his right hand to the envoys of foreign countries.

"Look at it carefully! I'm not lying. I can't be the murderer."

Huanan He couldn't help laughing secretly. People from western tribes were really simple and easy to deceive.

"Why is this box so magical?"

The envoy of Jinzhou scratched his thick curly hair and whispered suspiciously.

He really couldn't figure it out. Could it be that this golden box really had some magic power? Why could it distinguish truth and falsehood of everything on behalf of living people and find out the real murderer of murder cases?

With a lot of doubts, he leaned towards the table and put a hand into the box without saying a word.

Huanan He shook his folding fan and reminded him.

"Your fingers must touch the bottom of the box so that the divine eyes inside can see your hand clearly."

The envoy laughed and pulled out his hand.

His hand was also clean.

In an instant, everyone's curiosity was aroused. Wang Can directed the long queue in front of the table to test one by one.

Halfway through the test, there was a sudden commotion at the end of the line.

Huanan He raised his head to look. It turned out the interpreter of Ying State was making a fuss with the servants of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

"What happened?"

Huanan He was clear about it, but he pretended not to know what happened and stretched his neck to ask his subordinate.

The servant glanced at the interpreter with dissatisfaction and raised fist salute.

"Your Highness, Mrs. Yuancang is unwilling to participate in the test, and I am persuading her."

The interpreter beside the woman immediately pointed to the nose of the servant and shouted in anger.

"You are talking nonsense! Madam doesn't feel well, and it's so noisy here, so she wants to go back to the room to have a rest because of the headache! Are the officials of Da Yi so impersonal?"

Huanan He said smilingly.

"Please don't be angry. It will disturb Madam if we argue about a trivial matter."

As he spoke, he walked forward with the golden box in his hand, and Wang Can accompanied him all the way.

Mrs. Yuancang was in a white mourning dress, and her face without makeup was filled with anger.

Huanan He stopped stepping forward and stopped his smile, looking at the woman calmly.

"Madam, I'm sorry for my negligence. The General just passed away, and you have been sad all the time, so we shouldn't let you stay here for a long time."

Wang Can rushed to make the translation before the interpreter. After hearing this, the woman stretched her furrowed and resentful brows a lot.

Huanan He continued gently.

"But Madam, I believe that you do not want the person who killed the General to continue to be at large. You also want to find the murderer as soon as possible to comfort the General's soul in heaven."

"I take out Da Yi's national treasure 'Linglong Box' today just to find out the real murderer as soon as possible. Therefore, all the envoys present must participate, and no one can avoid it."

After Wang Can finished interpreting, the woman started to curse in rage.

The interpreter of Ying State strutted in borrowed plumes, shouting with a savage face.

"B*st*rd! Madam is the wife of the General. How can you command her to take the b*llsh*t test instead of comforting her?"

"Shut up!"

Wang Can couldn't help retorting. He would never allow the people he respected to be abused by the people from Ying State.

Huanan He smiled lightly and shook his head towards Wang Can to help him calm down.

When he spoke again, there was a hint of sternness in his tone.

"Based on the time General Yuancang was killed, the murderer should have poisoned him an hour before he left the embassy."

"In this way, all the people in the embassy are suspectable, and this is why all of you are required to participate in the test."

"Madam, you are a member of the envoy team of Ying State. If I treat you specially, what will other envoys think?"

Among the foreign envoys, there were some people who could understand Central Plains Mandarin. After Huanan He finished speaking calmly, they all echoed in disfluent Central Plains Mandarin.

"His Highness's words make sense. No one wants to be suspected of being a murderer. We have all taken the test, so why do people from Ying State have the privilege of not taking it?"

"We are all envoys invited by Da Yi. We all have the same identities, and we are standing here and waiting now! So why can't people from Ying State wait like us?"

"Yeah. Two people from your country died one after another. Don't you want to know who the murderer is?"

Huanan He provoked the dissatisfaction of everyone successfully with a few words. Thinking it was enough, he put on a generous look.

"Everyone, please calm down. I believe that Mrs. Yuancang indeed has some trouble. Since she doesn't feel well, I cannot command her to obey all the rules strictly."

"Madam, I've taken Linglong Box to you, so please take the test first. After the test, I will send people to escort you back to the room to have a rest."

As he said that, he held the golden box in his hand closer to the woman.

Wang Can watched it intently from the side, admiring this silver-haired man with beautiful facial features even more.

With such a goad and his eloquence, tempering justice with mercy, he could do everything well!

Sure enough, after Mrs. Yuancang understood what Huanan He meant, her eyes turned more and more resentful.

She glanced at the envoys around her and stood silently on the spot with her hands down, motionless.

After a moment of silence, the envoy from Luocha was the first to lose her patience.

This female official in her early thirties had a straightforward and upright disposition, and she disliked Mrs. Yuancang's being sluggish.

The Ninth Prince had persuaded her with so many fine words and he was so polite. If she still put on an act, she would be shameless!

"Hey, put your hand in the box quickly. How can you let so many people wait for you?"

The envoy from Luocha looked irritated, pointing to Mrs. Yuancang and complaining loudly.

Mrs. Yuancang just lowered her head and pinched her fingers, and her breath was heavy and disordered.

Seeing this, Wang Can smiled coldly and spoke in Ying language.

"Madam, you are not the murderer who killed the General, so you don't have to be nervous. Linglong Box is an intelligential treasure, so it will never wrong a good person."

"For the sake of His Highness who personally takes it to you, please take the test quickly and give an explanation for us who are still waiting."

Mrs. Yuancang frowned without saying a word, her body trembling slightly.

The interpreter rolled his eyes cunningly, approached Mrs. Yuancang subconsciously, and whispered.

"Don't be afraid, Madam. Just put the hand to the bottom of the box..."

The woman turned her head, looking at him with bloodshot and widened eyes as if she had got his intentional or unintentional hints.

In an instant, the interpreter nodded to the woman with some intention, raised his eyes, and said.

"Madam will take the test."

"Great. Please."

Huanan He twitched the corner of his mouth, staring at the woman with his deep cold eyes. The woman held her breath for a moment, pressing her pale lips tightly. She lifted her right hand which seemed to be as heavy as a huge stone, stretched out to the box with difficulty, and put it into the hole slowly.

In the blink of an eye, she pulled her hand out of the box hurriedly.

"Look. She has blood on her hand!"

The female envoy from Luocha was the first to exclaim.

People were horrified and stepped back in unison.

Mrs. Yuancang stared blankly at the scarlet-colored five fingers of her right hand, having a pale face and gasping heavily.

Suddenly, she screamed and then fell to the ground.

Huanan He threw the golden box away and instructed the servants with his chest out.

"What are you waiting for? Capture the murderer!"

The interpreter from Ying State shook his head tremblingly, staggered back a few steps, and kept mumbling.

"How could... How could it be possible...? It's impossible..."

There was an uproar around.

The envoy from Boni had long been coveting the national treasure of Da Yi brought by Huanan He.

Seeing that it was discarded after the real murderer was found out, he ran over hurriedly in chaos, holding the box in his arms. His eyes shone with excitement.

"Your Highness, please give this beautiful treasure to me. I will thank the great favor of Da Yi on behalf of our Emperor."

The old man prostrated himself and kowtowed.

In his impression, the Emperor of Da Yi was very generous, who always treated the envoys from the small countries around the Southern Sea as brothers.

He had been called into the Palace several times. Once he fell in love with any treasure in the Palace, as long as he said it sincerely and praised Da Yi and the Emperor by the way, he would get that treasure as he wished.

At this time, he hoped that the Emperor's uncle would also be generous.

Huanan He turned his head in response. Seeing that the tall brown-skinned old man was holding the box tightly, he felt both funny and a little embarrassed.

Opening the folding fan, Huanan He walked back to the fauteuil and sat down, smiling slyly.

"Lord, since you like it so much, I will give it to you."

"However, I have to tell you that it is not the national treasure of Da Yi at all. There are no divine eyes at the bottom of the box, and it cannot distinguish truth and falsehood. It is just an ordinary gold-clad box."

"I made up the story deliberately in order to find out the real murderer of the poisoning case!"
