The Crown Prince extended his hand, and Manbao placed the needle pouch in it.
The Crown Prince lowered his eyes and looked for a moment, then said, "I know you don't know who it is, but you must have someone you suspect. Tell me, who is it?"
Manbao hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Your Highness, without evidence, just suspicion, would you use torture?"
The Crown Prince looked at her crossly and said, "If you don't tell me who you suspect, then everyone in the Eastern Palace, especially those from Chongwen Pavilion, regardless of whether they are eunuchs, palace maids, Assistant Lecturers, or compilers, anyone who might have had access to your medicine box will be questioned under torture. Oh, that includes Bai Shan and Bai Cheng."
Manbao immediately said, "We suspect Xu Yu, who serves by my side, but I've been secretly watching her for a long time and haven't noticed anything."
