Chapter 46

Emperor Yuan of Ming and Prince Rui came forward and saw that one of them was grinding into the center, which was vermilion red, while the other one was a light yellow and dark color.

"The two medicines are different? What's going on?" Prince Rui asked the imperial physician.

The imperial doctor was confused, "This is impossible. This medicine was refined in a furnace, how could it be different in color?"

"Then please ask the imperial doctor to test it out and see which one is poisonous." Yuan Qingling said.

The imperial doctor pointed to the one with a vermilion heart, "It was not originally of this color, why is the center so red in the middle?"

He broke a little medicine and put it in a cup, poured water, and then put a silver needle. The whole silver needle was black, which showed that it was so toxic.

"Your Majesty!" The imperial doctor knelt down with a thud, his lips trembled, "This is absolutely impossible. Someone has changed the medicine. The medicines given by the Imperial Hospital are non-toxic and have been tested."

Emperor Mingyuan's eyes were cold, "Come on, seal the Imperial Hospital, check carefully!"

The guards took the order out.

Prince Rui looked at Yuan Qingling, "How did you know that the medicine is different?"

Yuan Qingling explained: "One missing medicine means someone took one, why should I take it away? Obviously there was something wrong with the medicine taken away. Eunuch Chang said that the medicine fell on the ground when the last time the medicine was given, so it was possible that the order was indiscriminate. The medicine taken away was non-toxic, and the medicine that should have been taken away is still here."

"You've analyzed it correctly!" Prince Rui's eyes were also cold and cold. "Someone dared to poison the Supreme Emperor. It's really a waste of life."

Emperor Mingyuan took all his anger on the imperial doctor. Yuan Qingling hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, I'm afraid the problem may not be in the Imperial Hospital."

Emperor Mingyuan looked at her, "What do you say?"

Yuan Qingling said: "There are three medicines. To take away the toxic medicine, you only need to replace it with one, so that it will not cause any suspicion. However, this person can't take out another Nine-Turn Pill. The Nine-Turn Pill was refined by the imperial physician. The Imperial Hospital can definitely get more Nine-Turn Pills, so that it will not cause doubts if one is missing."

Emperor Mingyuan nodded, "It's reasonable."

Yuan Qingling continued: "There are three ways for the murderer to get the medicine, one is at the Empress Dowager's place, one is at the Emperor's place, and the other is the Imperial Hospital. According to the analysis just now, the Imperial Hospital can already rule out because since the other party can get the medicine from the Imperial Hospital, he can get one more. Similarly, the Imperial Hospital can also rule out that the murderer directly took the Emperor's medicine and made poison in, because the medicine is fixed. After the Emperor was poisoned, the murderer must immediately take away the remaining toxic medicine."

Prince Rui was puzzled, "Why did this person need another poisonous medicine? One pill has already poisoned the Supreme Emperor."

Yuan Qingling said: "When using poison in a hurry, the amount cannot be controlled accurately. Therefore, this second medicine is available for backup. If one pill is not done, plus one pill the next day, you will be sure to poison the Supreme Emperor."

"How come your head is so fast?" Prince Rui praised.

The imperial doctor was greatly relieved. The princess's words had already helped the Imperial Hospital defend his words, and the Imperial Hospital was not suspicious.

Eunuch Chang said: "But only those medicines can be contacted by our family and Madam Xi, and no one else can come into contact with."

Madam Xi came down to be blessed, "It's true."

Emperor Mingyuan had absolute trust in Eunuch Chang and Madam Xi. They had served the Supreme Emperor for many years and were very loyal and would never harm the Supreme Emperor.

"How many people can enter the palace to serve?" Emperor Mingyuan asked Eunuch Chang.

"When the emperor comes, there are three people, all of whom were promoted by the Supreme Emperor himself."

"Come here, I want to ask!" A sharp light flashed in Emperor Mingyuan's eyes.

"Yes!" Eunuch Chang said and went out.

The one who entered the hall to serve was Xiao Quanzi. Xiao Quanzi was mainly responsible for walking the dog and taking Fubao into and out of the hall.

There is another one named Ximei, who serves the Emperor to wash up.

The other one is Xiao Luozi, who is responsible for cleaning the inner hall. The bedroom is very large and he is the only one who cleans the house. The Supreme Emperor doesn’t like the excitement, so he is mostly bedridden, so Xiao Luozi has been cleaning for half a day.

Eunuch Chang brought Xiao Quanzi and Ximei, while Xiao Luozi disappeared.

Xiao Quanzi and Ximei knew nothing about this matter. When they asked questions, they answered questions in a slight manner, and they didn't even know where the medicine was placed.

Yuan Qingling said: "This little Luozi is the key. Since he is responsible for cleaning the bedroom, he will definitely touch the medicine box when wiping the dust. He knows it's not surprising that he has to find him immediately."

Emperor Mingyuan immediately ordered to search through the entire palace and find Xiao Luozi.

Half an hour later, Xiao Luozi found it.

However, it was already a cold body and was thrown into an abandoned well in the cold palace.

The guards of the Leng Palace were found. Because Emperor Mingyuan ordered the whole palace to search Xiao Quanzi, the guards of the Leng Palace remembered that they had vaguely seen Xiao Quanzi come into the Leng Palace today, so they searched around and found the corpse.

The guards of the cold palace were summoned and Emperor Mingyuan personally interrogated them.

"Who else has anyone else been to the cold palace except Xiao Quanzi?" asked Emperor Mingyuan.

The guard replied: "When I returned to the emperor, I saw only Xiao Quanzi, and there were only four guards in the cold palace, who were inspecting day and night shifts, so I really didn't know if anyone came in behind."

Eunuch Chang also personally searched Xiao Quanzi's bed and found a 1,000 tael silver note.

The silver notes were issued by Dingfeng.

Yuan Qingling didn't know how to read the silver notes, but when she saw the seal of the Chu Prince's Mansion, she felt sank in her heart and opened her mouth to defend herself, "Father, it's not the prince."

Emperor Mingyuan was not a fool, so he naturally knew that if he was the King of Chu, he would definitely not give a redemption ticket with the seal of the King of Chu's Mansion.

The whole thing is that someone is going to frame Lao Wu.

Moreover, the planning was relatively hasty, which shows that it was a temporary preparation. This person probably did not expect that the Emperor's condition would improve.

It can be said that Yuan Qingling's straightforward thrust made this man lose all his original plans, so he had to hurry to prepare another strategy, and this strategy would inevitably reveal flaws.

But this flaw, if not careful people, wouldn't have noticed, because the Supreme Emperor has been taking the Nine-Turn Pill for a few days, and these Nine-Turn Pills are recommended by the Queen Mother, and no one would have doubts about the Nine-Turn Pills.

When Emperor Ming Yuan thought of this, he couldn't help but look at Yuan Qingling again. When the fifth brother married her, he was indeed not very satisfied. He was not satisfied with his daughter-in-law. However, such a scandal happened, so he had to accept it. The royal family could not be criticized.

Now, I like it, but my walking posture is a bit strange, like a crab.

He glanced at the imperial doctor and said, "Why don't you hurry up and see what poison it is?"

The imperial doctor hurriedly said, "Yes, I will check it right away."

Prince Rui looked at Yuan Qingling, "Do you know?"

Yuan Qingling shook his head, "I'm not proficient in poison."

The imperial doctor breathed a sigh of relief. If the princess knew everything, was there still a need for the Imperial Hospital to exist?

Yuan Qingling could actually guess what poison the medicine was.
