Looking at the pale faces of everyone in the hall, Xiao Xiruo found that she seemed to be the one who failed to keep up with the rhythm...
"Mr. Li, are you sure that the poison on Concubine Shu's body is Gan Zhen?"
Looking at Dr. Li and others who rushed in, Queen Mother Hua's tone changed significantly.
As members of the Dayan royal family, everyone present was well-informed, and naturally they were no strangers to the strange poison "Gan Zhen" in Northern Yi.
Legend has it that there is a bird in Northern Yi that feeds on the venomous fruits of poisonous snakes, called the poisonous bird. This bird goes up to the sky and into the earth, and is extremely difficult to catch. The poison obtained from this poisonous drug has strong medicinal properties but a sweet taste, so that when eaten,
Not only are people unaware, but they may also eat more because the poison is too delicious.
But as we all know, this poison has no cure and is extremely precious...
"When I return to the Queen Mother, I know that I have little knowledge and have only seen this poison in some medical books. Fortunately, Dr. Ao is well-informed and can recognize this poison."
Immediately letting Dr. Ao out behind him, Dr. Li and others never stopped wiping sweat.
In the eyes of ordinary people, their hospital is too high-ranking, and all the doctors there are very skilled...
However, only they themselves understand that after the death of the late emperor, they are the only old guys who have no choice but to stay in the palace and serve the emperor and his ladies who are now not very important.
If it's a certain disease, it's easy to say, but for a strange poison like "Gan Zhen", they are really helpless...
"To report to the Queen Mother, the poison of Gan Zhen is extremely strong. The person who is poisoned will be poisoned into the lungs within a stick of incense, and then vomit blood. As the poison deepens, everything in the body of Concubine Shu will turn into blood...
Therefore, Wei Chen feels that the poison that Concubine Shu was poisoned by should be sweet poison."
Doctor Ao bowed his head and listened sincerely to every word.
And the symptoms he mentioned were exactly what the bystanders thought.
Because Xiao Xiruo saw them nodding, and their expressions were more solemn than the other.
"Your Majesty, these symptoms are indeed the same as Gan Zhen's."
Frowning at the Du Juan over there, Xue Xue couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition in her heart.
Not only her, but Xi Yang and others also looked a little ugly.
But before they could react, Prince Gong Feng Hua, who had been silent for a while, stood up again.
"Gan Zhen?"
The man walked slowly to Du Juan and said condescendingly:
"Do you know what poison this sweet poison is?"
Facing Feng Hua's question, Du Juan frowned obviously, and then said very perfunctorily:
"It's the poison of the Beiyi people. There is no cure. If you get poisoned, you will die. It is suitable for Concubine Shu to take."
"You bitch..."
After hearing this, Ming Cui roared again, but as she was held down by several eunuchs, she had no chance to attack Du Juan again.
Fortunately, Feng Hua raised his leg and kicked Du Juan hard on the lower abdomen.
"With only a little knowledge, you are full of nonsense! How could a slave like you be able to get the strange poison of the Beiyi people? I would like to advise you, you still have time to tell the truth!"
As soon as Feng Hua said this, except for some of the female relatives in the palace, everyone else in the palace understood it clearly.
Not to mention these human beings, even Xi Yang and Jiangxue could see the secret inside at this moment.
It is understandable that Du Juan wants to kill Concubine Shu, but is it easy for a palace maid to assassinate a concubine?
Not really.
It is true that there are many ways to kill people in the palace.
Pushing people into the lake, framing people, skidding and frightening people, pretending to be ghosts to scare people...
However, a palace maid did not meet these conditions at all, so she could only choose to poison.
But where does the poison come from?
All a powerless palace maid can do is steal.
"Yes, there are imperial doctors coming in and out of Changle Palace every day. It's not like you don't have the chance to steal poison. But you don't even look at what you are stealing. Gan Zhen, do they have it?"
As soon as Feng Hua finished speaking, Imperial Physician Li and others all knelt down in front of Empress Dowager Hua.
They all said in unison that they didn't, and beads of sweat fell down from their foreheads.
Obviously, they don't even recognize it...
How can there be something you don’t recognize?
If this crime really falls on them, they are collaborating with the enemy and treason, and want to kill the nine tribes...
After giving Dr. Li and others a cold look, the Queen Mother Hua above finally said to Du Juan:
"Tell me, who gave you the poison? Or, in other words, who instigated you to attack Concubine Shu?"
Being questioned by Empress Dowager Hua and Prince Gong at the same time, Du Juan's psychological defense obviously showed signs of loosening.
But she still held her belly tenaciously, wiped the blood from her mouth and said:
"Returning to the Queen Mother, no one gave me poison, it was me who wanted to kill Concubine Shu, it was me..."
Feng Hua raised his leg and kicked him again.
This time, the kick hit Du Juan hard on the waist.
The woman glanced at Feng Hua in horror, and then her face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye. She was in pain, and the area where she was kicked seemed to have cracked, causing her to suddenly fall to the ground.
"Your Majesty!"
Seeing Du Juan collapse, Queen Mother Hua quickly signaled Feng Hua to stop, then glared at Du Juan and said:
"The Aijia gives you one last chance. If you don't say anything again, don't blame the Aijia for punishing you."
"Someone is coming!"
Looking sideways outside the main hall, Xiao Xiruo saw a group of eunuchs from the Shenxing Department approaching quickly.
In their hands were all kinds of torture instruments, including those that clamped fingers, those with palms and mouths, and of course some that could break a person's legs or even be used for claustrophobia.
As if to complete the play, Du Juan, who was suffering from unbearable pain in her waist, slowly turned her head and looked at the eunuchs in horror.
At this moment, she seemed to be making a choice between immediate death and life worse than death.
Finally, she looked at Xiao Xiruo with tearful eyes. She did not say that Xiao Xiruo gave the medicine. She only said:
"Your Majesty, save me..."
It was this phrase "Mother, save me" that successfully attracted the attention of the audience for Xiao Xiruo.
The eldest lady of the Xiao family, once a noble concubine, the lord of Changle Palace, is also the current master of this cuckoo.
Just before the banquet started, everyone saw her arguing with Concubine Wang Shu outside the palace...
"At that time, Concubine Shu was so angry that she almost started fighting with this guy~"
"I also saw it. My name is Concubine Shu, but she didn't even pay attention to me."
"What you are saying is true... Others can't get Gan Zhen, but the Xiao family has been fighting with Bei Yi for many years, isn't it easy for them to do that?"
…
Everyone in the hall was talking a lot. Ming Cui, who had been pinned down by the eunuchs, got the strength from nowhere and suddenly broke free from the restraint. He ran to Queen Mother Hua in a few steps and said:
"The Queen Mother, your concubine has always been at odds with our empress. She not only poured tea on our empress, but also often verbally abused her. A few days ago, she asked our empress for cuckoos several times, but she didn't want to give it, so she inevitably spoke a little harshly.
…”
Ming Cui recounted all the conflicts between Xiao Xiruo and Wang Shufei in one breath, including the disagreement at the theater that day and the argument outside the palace just now.
What she said was not objective because she concealed all the wrong parts of Wang Shufei.
However, with her start, everyone in Zhongcui Palace agreed, and even the queen nodded solemnly, saying that the noble concubine and Shu Concubine did have deep conflicts.
Ever since, everyone looked at Xiao Xiruo again, but where was Xiao Xiruo?
She said very excitedly:
"They are right, I am at odds with Concubine Shu. As for the poison, well, my Xiao family does have one! Looking at it this way, I really ordered Du Juan to poison Concubine Shu. Yes, this
The logic is perfect!"
Queen Mother Hua: "?"
Prince Gong: "?"
Everyone: "?"
No, what about condemning yourself? Are you so excited? This chapter has been completed!
