Chapter 169 What is fed into the mouth is arsenic covered with honey
"That's right." Grandma Bingyan nodded with certainty.
Yu Jiujiu couldn't believe it.
She looked at Pei Shuyan at a loss. His eyes were calm, which inexplicably made her calm down. She thought carefully and said: "I know that dad is not a very smart person, but I also know him. He is definitely not
A person who is cruel and capable of poisoning and killing his brother who is a compatriot of his own mother in order to fight for the throne!"
Her tone was so determined, "Besides, at that time, dad was only six years old. He was still so young. It was impossible for him to think of such vicious methods. Someone must be taking advantage of him!"
After hearing this, Grandma Bingyan suddenly felt complicated emotions swirling in her heart.
The little princess is so smart, as if she had inherited it from the emperor's eldest son.
"At that time, the eldest son of the emperor also said the same thing. When he was dying, he begged the Queen Mother to find out the truth and not to unjustly accuse the emperor."
Grandma Bingyan endured the grief in her heart and continued, "But all the evidence points to the Emperor."
Yu Jiujiu felt his heart twitch when he heard this.
The eldest son of the emperor, her uncle, had been poisoned by the poison brought by his father himself and was about to die. However, he still retained extraordinary sense and believed that his father would not harm his life. He begged the Queen Mother Yin.
Find out the truth...
If my uncle had not died, he would really have become a king ten or a hundred times better than my father.
Really, what a pity!
"Mommy, what is going on?" Yu Jiujiu felt that there were many doubts in front of her, "Six years old is an age that can remember things. Why does it seem that my father doesn't know anything about this matter? Even he thought that his uncle was sick.
Where are the deceased?”
"Oh, this matter is really a long story."
Aunt Bingyan sighed deeply, "The emperor's eldest son is twelve years older than the emperor. When the emperor was born, he had grown up and knew what it meant to be responsible. He was also smart and kind. He doted on the emperor's younger brother very much.
The so-called brotherly bond, at that time, the emperor was also very attached to the emperor's eldest son. The relationship between brothers was very rare in the royal family.
"That year, the emperor's eldest son turned eighteen and was deeply loved by the late emperor. The late emperor had already started to prepare for the emperor's eldest son to assist the government and personally taught him to be an excellent prince. The late emperor, apart from anything else, really loved the emperor's eldest son.
Taught him with all his heart.
"The late emperor's love may have become a reminder for the eldest son of the emperor...
"On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the eldest son of the emperor suddenly contracted a cold. He was dizzy for a few days, but his condition gradually improved after taking medicine.
"The emperor, who was still the eighth prince at the time, was very young and was very worried when he saw that his brother was ill.
"At that time, Concubine Chu suddenly brought a food box to the emperor at night, saying that she had prepared a nourishing medicinal diet herself, which would help the emperor's eldest son get better quickly. Concubine Chu could only do superficial things and people who didn't understand her,
They all thought she had a bodhisattva heart. The emperor was young at the time and always regarded Mrs. Chu as a trustworthy person.
"The emperor was thinking that his brother was sick and couldn't play with him, so he wanted to get better soon.
"So, I personally carried the bowl of medicinal food and fed it to the eldest son of the emperor.
"The eldest son of the emperor asked him, where did this medicinal food come from?
"The emperor followed what Concubine Chu taught him and said that the palace maid next to him knew that he was worried about his brother, so he asked the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital for a house, and then went to the imperial dining room to do it. This statement sounded perfect and not surprising at all.
Become suspicious.
"The emperor is young and naive. Even though he is worried about his brother, he has always been favored and does not know how to take care of others. He has no idea how to take the initiative to make medicinal food for the eldest son of the emperor.
"So what this said is that the maid next to the emperor was thoughtful and prepared the medicinal meal, which makes perfect sense.
"The eldest son of the emperor did not have any defensiveness against the emperor. He was also the younger brother. He personally brought it to his mouth and took several bites immediately. But who knew that arsenic had been added to the medicinal meal?
!”
Yu Jiujiu always listened carefully.
Almost as soon as Grandma Bingyan mentioned that Concubine Chu visited her at night and brought her medicinal meals, she had already guessed the outrageous ending, the stupid mistake made by the emperor’s scumbag father...
But after hearing what Grandma Bingyan said personally, the younger brother personally held the bowl and fed the medicinal food to his mouth...
Yu Jiujiu could almost imagine it.
At that time, the eldest son of the emperor must have looked at his beloved younger brother with a happy and gentle smile in his eyes.
I still felt sorry for my younger brother. I was afraid that my younger brother's hand would be burned if he held the bowl for too long, so I ate several mouthfuls of it just to reassure my younger brother and make him believe that my condition had actually improved because I ate what he had served.
He took the medicinal diet and recovered quickly.
But he never imagined that what his brother brought over and fed into his mouth himself was actually the most poisonous arsenic in the world!
This is simply arsenic covered in honey!
Yu Jiujiu took a deep breath.
At this moment, she felt a little angry because of her father's stupidity!
But then, she felt very powerless about it.
After all, he was only a six-year-old father. He was not an uncle, nor was he like her. He was an ordinary child with average intelligence, a real six-year-old child.
He also had beautiful longings at that time, hoping that the medicinal food he brought over and fed into his brother's mouth would really make his brother get better quickly...
"It's Mrs. Chu!"
The more Yu Jiu Jiu thinks about it, the more annoyed she becomes, and the more she thinks about it, the more she hates it!
She immediately thought of the real mastermind behind the bowl of medicinal food, and said the name of Concubine Chu in a very affirmative tone, and then she became deeply puzzled, "But how dare she be so bold and bold?"
, how dare you use such a method to kill your uncle? Is she crazy, or is she confident that the imperial grandmother will not find out that it is her?
"I don't understand, mama, since dad is fine, it means that the imperial grandmother has found out the truth of the matter, but why is it that Concubine Chu can still live openly to this day and dare to send Long Wuwei to assassinate the imperial grandmother?
"Why?"
Yu Jiujiu really couldn't figure this out.
Aunt Bingyan sighed deeply as she listened. The following story seemed to be even more difficult for her to explain and she was even more angry.
At this time, Pei Shuyan, who had been silent, suddenly said with some speculation: "Could it be because the late emperor knew that it was Concubine Chu who poisoned his most outstanding eldest son, but he still chose to keep Concubine Chu.
?”
Almost the moment he finished speaking, Grandma Bingyan let out another sad sigh.
Under Yu Jiujiu's disbelieving gaze, she nodded heavily, with a hint of sadness and tears in her eyes. They were because the emperor's eldest son died aggrievedly, and because the empress dowager lived aggrievedly these years.
"Concubine Chu was the late emperor's favorite and the most popular concubine at that time. No matter how smart she was, no matter how thorough her plans were, and no matter how clean she cleaned, the Queen Mother still found out the clues, that is, she was...
Concubine Chu accidentally left it in the food box, a ruby gem the size of a fingernail inlaid on Concubine Chu’s clothes.”
