"What happened tonight? Once you sort out the causes and consequences, you can guess pretty much everything."
"Your Majesty, I am not talented, so let me ask Miss Lu a few questions?"
Beside, the Queen Mother clenched her hands tightly.
"Luo Jiuli, you are just a servant girl. You are not qualified to speak in this situation."
When Xiao Mingxuan heard this, his face hardened, and he was about to retaliate when Luo Jiuli grabbed him, and then he raised his eyes to look at the aloof Queen Mother.
"Is the Queen Mother getting old and her memory is not very good? My daughter is now the fiancée of the Ninth Prince. My prince is being plotted by some ignorant people. Don't I, the soon-to-be fiancée, have the qualifications to speak?
?”
"Empress Dowager, don't just allow the state officials to set fires and not allow the people to light lamps. This is really unfair to the Queen Mother of a country."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall fell silent in an instant.
Actually, it wasn't An Jing. He was frightened and shocked by Luo Jiuli's words.
A little court lady silenced the queen mother of a country in front of foreign envoys, and even called the queen mother a brat.
This, this is probably... No, she is not a little court lady, she is the future Ninth Princess who came to propose marriage to the Ninth Prince himself.
The Queen Mother was torn apart by Luo Jiuli in front of everyone. She couldn't get off the stage and her whole aura was messed up.
She wanted to have someone pull down Luo Jiuli, a bitch, and kill her with a cane.
But she deeply understood that Luo Jiuli dared to speak to her like this because it was the emperor and the Nine Kings who supported her and acquiesced behind her back.
If not, how could she dare?
On the side, the emperor did not move, but his expression gradually softened as Luo Jiuli spoke.
Good girl, looking at the entire Changning Dynasty, who dares to talk to the Queen Mother like this?
Even when he was young, in order to secure this throne, he had to hide his talents and bide his time, curb his sharp edges, and accommodate himself to the Queen Mother in every aspect.
"Luo Jiuli, don't be rude."
It was such a casual sentence without being rude, and there was even a hint of indulgence in the tone.
"Queen Mother, Luo Jiuli is still young and speaks in a childlike manner. Queen Mother is the Queen Mother of a country and has a tolerant mind. Why bother with her."
As she spoke, she didn't give the Queen Mother a chance to speak, and turned to look at Luo Jiuli again.
"I allow you to ask Lu Mingxin a question, okay? If you can't find out why, I won't let you off lightly."
"My daughter obeys the decree."
Luo Jiuli smiled, not even blinking at the extremely pale Queen Mother, let alone apologizing.
Everyone was silent. Since the emperor just spoke, he was sending a message to everyone.
Luo Jiuli's wanton behavior was tacitly approved by the Emperor and the Ninth Prince.
At this time, Luo Jiuli lowered his head and looked at Lu Mingxin.
"Miss Lu, I heard that you stayed in the palace the night before the palace banquet?"
Lu Mingxin nodded and said:
"yes."
"Which palace will you stay in?"
"Changchun Palace."
"It seems that the Queen Mother loves you very much!"
Lu Mingxin half-raised her eyelids, a hint of sarcasm flashed across her face.
"Of course she loves her. The Queen Mother not only allowed her to stay in the Changchun Palace, but also gave her a love charm and a perfect plan. As long as the eunuch arranged in advance can trick the Ninth Prince into Yunying Palace."
"As long as I have the opportunity to get close to the Ninth Prince and plant the love poison in the Ninth Prince, when the Ninth Prince falls under the love poison, he will obey my words."
"But, do you think it's just a love poison? No, there's a special poison in it. Once that poison stays in the Ninth Prince's body, it can take up to half a year, and up to three or two months, and the poison will slowly corrode
The Nine Princes’ meridians, bones and blood made him weaken little by little, and finally, he died.”
Lu Mingxin spoke so fast that no one could react.
When everyone came to their senses, the whole place was completely silent.
Deathly silence.
Simply because the information Lu Mingxin broke was too impactful.
They thought that what happened tonight was just some dirty dirty tricks commonly used in the palace, but they didn't expect that it turned out to be a love poison? It was actually related to Sang Nan Kingdom?
The Queen Mother's face was pale, and she was sitting beside the Emperor as stiffly as a wooden sculpture, unable to say a word.
She didn't understand at all, how could everything tonight... be completely beyond her control?
From Hu Hanyu, to Chongyang Hou, and then to Lu Mingxin, these three people are the three most advantageous chess pieces around her.
But tonight, it was destroyed.
The Queen Mother closed her eyes and tried to calm down her uneasy mood.
As for the single prince and fifth princess of Sangnan Kingdom.
The moment their guesses were revealed by Lu Mingxin, both of them felt chills running down their spines.
Love Gu!!
A kind of poison that is only found in Sangnan Kingdom appears in the palace of Changning Dynasty, and is even inextricably related to the Queen Mother?
What's more, the Queen Mother actually used this love Gu to plot and control the Ninth Prince?
At the moment when the matter was revealed, the emperor actually ignored the royal scandal and let them sit on the sidelines and watch?
What does this mean?
Does it mean that the emperor suspects that the Gu master is a spy they planted in the Changning Dynasty? Going deeper...the emperor suspects that the Queen Mother is colluding with Sang Nanguo?
When they thought of this possibility, Prince Shan and the fifth princess suddenly felt uneasy.
On the side, Concubine Hu suddenly opened her eyes and glanced at Lu Mingxin coldly:
"Lu Mingxin, don't talk nonsense!"
Lu Mingxin’s voice was smooth:
"My daughter never talks nonsense, yes or no. As long as the emperor thoroughly investigates the palace, he will definitely know the truth."
Speaking of a thorough investigation of the palace, Concubine Hu couldn't hide the panic in her eyes.
Luo Jiuli frowned and looked at Concubine Hu like a fool.
"My dearest concubine, haven't you ever heard the saying that there is no three hundred taels of silver here?"
"Luo Jiuli, you, what are you talking about? Shut up, please?"
Concubine Hu glanced at the Queen Mother, but saw that the Queen Mother had closed her eyes, and her heart suddenly went cold.
But she was unwilling and unable to give up. She looked at the emperor, not caring about the honor of being a noble concubine. She knelt down with tears in her eyes, grabbed the corners of the emperor's dragon robe, and said excitedly:
"Your Majesty, what Lu Mingxin told are all lies. It was her. She got the love poison and poison from her admiration for the Ninth Prince. It has nothing to do with the Queen Mother!"
"Now that the matter has been exposed, she has the audacity to pass all the blame on others. Your Majesty, you cannot believe her."
When Lu Mingxin told all the conspiracies of the Queen Mother, there was nothing to be afraid of. Hearing Concubine Hu confuse right and wrong, she sneered beside her:
"Your Majesty, your Majesty? Why do you have to do that at the end of the crossbow? Where did you get the Love Gu? Your Majesty knows very well."
"Your Majesty, you don't know something. This love poison was caused by the Queen Mother letting Marquis Chongyang——"
"Lu Mingxin, shut up, shut up for me."
Concubine Hu screamed at Lu Mingxin hysterically.
"shut up."
"Snapped!"
The emperor couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Concubine Hu to the ground with one palm.
"ah!"
Concubine Hu was unprepared. She was slapped and fell to the ground in embarrassment without saying anything.
