Chapter 166 The secret prison, secret interrogation
A young eunuch came, and Murong Yun went out to deal with it, "What's going on in the palace? Who summoned Princess Lie."
The eldest princess was so powerful that the little eunuch couldn't help but tremble, "Back to eldest princess, it's... it's Prince An."
"What does Prince An want from Princess Lie?"
The young eunuch said: "Back to Princess Lie, Prince An heard that Princess Lie made the Queen Mother faint with anger and now has a severe headache. Prince An wants Princess Lie to come into the palace to diagnose and treat the Queen Mother's headache."
Murong Yun raised her lips and sneered: "Go back and tell Prince An that the prince has been poisoned and his life is at stake. He needs Princess Lie's help in detoxifying him. She has no time to enter the palace."
By the time the young eunuch was sent away and Murong Yun came in, Feng Mingwei had already forced the poison out of Xiao Heng.
Seeing him waking up, Murong Yun came over nervously and said, "Your Majesty, how are you?"
Xiao Heng's face was very pale. The injury he suffered in the military camp was not healed yet, and he was poisoned again, which almost killed half of his life. He regained his breath and said, "I'm fine, princess. Don't worry."
Murong Yun wanted to hold her and cry loudly, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."
Then he looked at Feng Mingwei, "Brother and sister, how is the prince's health? Can you help him recover as soon as possible?"
"He was seriously injured in the military camp and has not recovered. Now he has been poisoned. His vitality is seriously injured and it will take time to recover."
"You can't rush this matter."
Mrs. Xiao looked at her son and wiped away her tears, "Then please give Princess Heng'er some medicine to take care of her body."
Feng Mingwei said: "He can't take supplemental medicine yet."
"Take the antidote pill!"
He took a bottle of detoxification from the medicine box and gave it to Xiao Heng.
"Lie down and I'll show you the wound on your stomach."
Xiao Heng took the elixir and said, "Thank you, Princess."
Mrs. Xiao and Murong Yun were worried and didn't want to leave.
Feng Mingwei didn't force herself and checked his wounds in front of them.
"It's a bit inflamed, don't wear a bandage from now on."
"I'm going to give you medicine, but I need to disinfect it first. It will hurt a little at first, please bear with it, Your Majesty."
The cotton was soaked in disinfectant and touched the wound.
Xiao Heng's lips suddenly lost color, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He could only grit his teeth and endure it.
Mrs. Xiao and the others watched from the side, leaning together nervously.
After Feng Mingwei gave him medicine, she simply wrapped it with a layer of breathable gauze. "Okay, don't touch the water for the next two days. In fact, he is recovering well."
"Thank you, Princess." Xiao Heng thanked her again.
"It's better to report the matter about the poisonous scorpion to the emperor truthfully and let Dali Temple investigate thoroughly!"
Murong Yun nodded, with a cold look in her eyes, "I will go into the palace to find my father later."
The person behind it not only wanted to harm her son, but also wanted to kill her husband.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess who it is.
The Xiao family holds military power, and Xiao Heng is the eldest son-in-law.
The Changning Marquis Mansion will definitely be a help to King Qin.
After all, they were involved in this battle for inheritance.
Murong Yun wiped her tears, packed up and planned to enter the palace.
But at this moment, the girl ran over in fear, "Madam, it's not good, there are many poisonous scorpions in the eldest lady's room."
"The young master was accidentally bitten by a poisonous scorpion."
Hearing this, Mrs. Xiao's eyes almost went dark and she almost fainted.
Xiao Heng became excited and said angrily: "Why don't you hurry up and save people?"
Murong Yun was so frightened that she hurriedly ran to see her son.
Feng Mingwei rushed out of the room as soon as she got the news.
Xiaoyu had already escaped from the house with Mo'er in her arms, with seven or eight palm-sized black poisonous scorpions chasing them behind her.
Seeing this scene, the girls and women in the Hou Mansion were so frightened that they screamed and ran away with their heads in their hands.
The poisonous scorpion only stared at Xiao Yu.
She could hardly run anymore when a poisonous scorpion jumped up and was about to attack her.
At this time, a figure descended from the sky, holding a flying knife, and within a short time, he killed all the poisonous scorpions.
The poisonous scorpion that jumped up to attack Xiao Yu was cut in half.
Feng Jian turned back to look at his wife and children, then went over to pick them up and said, "Yu'er, it's okay."
Xiao Yu cried weakly: "Mo'er was bitten by a poisonous scorpion, please find Wei'er quickly..."
After saying that, she fainted in his arms.
At this time, Feng Mingwei rushed over and saw only seven or eight poisonous scorpions on the ground, with a flying knife stuck on each head. They were not dead, but were nailed to the ground by Feng Jian with the flying knife and could no longer attack.
people.
"Weier, Mo'er has been bitten by a poisonous scorpion, please help." Feng Jian hugged his wife and children and ran towards her.
Mo'er's entire face was purple, and it was frightening just to look at it.
Feng Mingwei took a resurrection pill, pinched half of it and gave it to him to drink. Then she quickly found the place where he was bitten, lowered her head and sucked out the poisonous blood.
…
"How come there are poisonous scorpions in the Changning Marquis Mansion? If the scorpion breeder behind the scenes is not caught, why are there still poisonous scorpions?"
When Emperor Beiwu heard about it, he was furious and called the ministers to the imperial study room to curse him.
Among them, Mr. Liu, the minister of Dali Temple, kowtowed his head on the floor and did not dare to breathe.
"Back to the emperor, the captured scorpion master Shen Xiao has been interrogated. At that time, he confessed to the mastermind behind it..."
Emperor Beiwu's eyebrows were cold, "Who is the mastermind behind this? Can you catch it?"
Mr. Liu looked at Marquis Jing, hesitated for a while and then said: "Back to the emperor, the prisoner said it was Princess Lie... After the interrogation results came out, Mr. Shen Xiao went to the palace and wanted to take Princess Lie back to Dali Temple for interrogation, but Prince Lie was asked about this matter.
If you stop it, then nothing will happen.”
"Later, the poisonous scorpion did not appear. I thought the prisoner was telling lies and was slandering Princess Lie, so I did not report it to the emperor."
"I didn't expect that after a while, the poisonous scorpion appeared again, and... Recently, Princess Lie has been going to the Changning Marquis Mansion frequently. Today, the princess is at Xiao's house, and the poisonous scorpion just happened to appear. It's really hard to say."
Emperor Beiwu's face turned pale, "You mean to say that Princess Lie is the mastermind behind this?"
"I dare not make a conclusion." Mr. Liu said in fear.
Emperor Beiwu was a little angry, "Even if Princess Lie is the mastermind, why did she do this?!"
Mr. Liu couldn't answer.
Shen Jing lowered his eyelashes and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the scorpion master is still in Dali Temple. No matter how he presses, he keeps saying that it was Princess Lie who ordered it and that she is the mastermind behind the scenes."
"There is no smoke without foundation. Combined with Princess Lie's recent behavior, I have to suspect that her purpose in doing this is to win over the Supreme Emperor and the Xiao family to give her protection."
"I also received news that Feng Jian secretly returned to the capital a long time ago. With the help of King Lie, he hid on the outskirts of the capital and did not enter the capital. He waited for Princess Lie to ask for favor from the emperor, and then he returned to the capital 'justly and legitimately'."
"If she saves the Supreme Emperor, it will be a carefully arranged situation by the Feng family..."
He didn't say anything further, but a few provocative words were enough to plant the seeds of doubt in Emperor Beiwu's heart. Emperor Beiwu's face turned pale and he said, "Come here, tell Princess Lie and Feng Jian to enter the palace immediately."
Shen Jing's eyes flashed coldly, "Your Majesty, the Feng family brothers and sisters are very articulate and eloquent, and with the support of the Supreme Emperor, they will definitely not admit it when they go to the palace to confront them."
"Now she has saved the eldest consort and the young master of the Xiao family. When I interrogate Princess Lie, Marquis Changning and the eldest princess will definitely come forward to speak for her and testify. This matter has entered a cycle, and I will never find out the real truth. The truth will completely fall into the trap of the Feng family."
Emperor Beiwu frowned slightly, "Then what do you want to do?"
Thinking about what Feng Mingwei has done recently, it is indeed suspicious, and every time she can defeat everyone with just one mouth.
When it comes to sophistry, she ranks second, while no one dares to rank first.
After a period of observation, Emperor Beiwu had learned that Feng Mingwei was a cunning little fox, even more cunning and difficult to deal with than her father.
Shen Jing's eyes flashed sinisterly, "I believe that this matter should be handed over to Dali Temple for interrogation, and that the person should be directly detained in a secret cell and prohibited from being approached by anyone else. In this way, some unexpected secrets might be revealed from her mouth. ."
"In addition, Feng Jian will be detained for interrogation separately."
"Separate the two brothers and sisters."
Emperor Beiwu didn't dare to be careless when he thought that the Feng family was involved behind the scenes. He said in a deep voice: "Let Jinghou and Dali Temple investigate this matter together."
