Chapter 430

At this time, Shi Shi seemed to suddenly think of another key point. She wanted to say something, but she was hesitant and nervous.

Seeing this meticulous and fascinating performance in his eyes, Xu Mingyi felt it was a pity not to bring the always studious Ming Shi to the scene for a long experience.

Emperor Qingming looked at Shi Shi and said, "say --"

At this stage, there is nothing to say about the poisoning.

However, it was soon found that there was.

Shi Shi then summoned up his courage and whispered, "among the poisons that made this poison, there are two poisonous herbs that seem to grow only in Dianzhou..."

Emperor Qingming's face changed.

Dianzhou

It was the fief of the Xiang king.

Officials also set off a different color in their eyes.

Princess sun was the biological mother of the king of Hunan

If we could explain tonight's incident as an old resentment and dispute in the harem... Now, the king of Hunan is completely involved.

If not, how can we explain why this poison, which only exists in Dianzhou, appears in the hands of Princess sun, who is in the deep palace and has never left the capital?

"A load of nonsense!" Princess sun, who was only listening with a dead face, suddenly became excited again, "... What is only in Yunnan, you don't want to slander and talk!"

Shi Shi didn't argue with her about anything.

Because the more Princess sun is like this, the more people will feel guilty. There is no need for her to say anything more.

At this time, the late king of Hunan walked into the hall and saluted the emperor and Empress Dowager uneasily. Seeing the tied Princess sun, his eyes tightened and asked, "brother... What happened?"

"The imperial concubine wants to poison her mother." emperor Qingming looked at him straightly, "and the poison comes from Dianzhou - fourth brother. Do you have anything to say?"

This is the only one of his three younger brothers who can be trusted, but now something like this has happened.

"Brother Huang... There must be a misunderstanding!" the king of Hunan reluctantly recovered from his horror and hurriedly said, "my mother's concubine is pure and kind. She has always been reluctant to trample an ant to death. How can she poison her mother -"

Then he said to the empress dowager, "empress mother, over the years, my mother's imperial concubine has often accompanied you around in the palace. You know her best!"

Without comment, the Empress Dowager said: "The truth remains to be found out, but as far as we know, your mother's concubine is really the most suspected - it's up to her. If she can show evidence of her innocence, even if it's just a clue, it's good. But from beginning to end, she just shakes her head and cries for injustice, and refuses to reveal the rest of her words. How can you let the mourners believe her and intercede for her?"

The soup is poisonous you're talking nonsense.

This poison comes from Yunnan - you're talking nonsense.

... how on earth should people check it?

The Empress Dowager was helpless.

"Mother Princess..." the king of Hunan looked at Princess sun and said eagerly, "you might as well recall what happened and think carefully about whether there is a suspicious person who wants to poison her by your hand!"

Princess sun looked at her son and shook her head silently in tears.

"You have a good memory!"

Princess Sun said with tears, "I don't know anything..."

"... if you only say you don't know anything, then the crime will only fall on you!" the king of Hunan looked so anxious that his head would fall off.

Sun Taifei just shook her head and couldn't say anything useful.

People have different moods.

"It's a matter of great importance, so we must thoroughly investigate it." emperor Qingming said, "before we find out the whole truth, this mausoleum temple may not be safe for the empress mother, but now it's still late at night - second brother, take your mother first and then go back to the Palace to rest and calm down."

The king of Yan lowered his eyes.

Emperor Qingming also promised, "don't worry, second brother. I will find out the matter in person and explain it to my mother."

The king of Yan raised his hand and said, "the younger minister went back to the Palace first and waited for the news."

He knew that his royal brother was borrowing his mother to support him at this time.

But the matter has come to light, so he might as well wait and see what the confession is——

If the justice given in the end is false, he will personally ask for restitution for his mother.

Seeing King Yan leaving with the empress dowager, Emperor Qingming immediately ordered Han Yan to lead the arrest guard to search the mausoleum temple.

Later, the emperor interrogated Princess sun alone, accompanied by the king of Hunan. King Jing and other officials withdrew outside the Zen hospital and waited.

"This sacrifice was meant to pray for Daqing, but now it happened in the mausoleum and temple... Isn't it an ominous omen to spread it?" the Minister of rites who proposed and presided over the sacrifice sighed repeatedly - If heaven's will shows, Daqing is clearly going to end!

The imperial eunuch was shaking his head as well: "... I'm afraid it's an ominous beginning for the king's son to fall in front of the altar today."

He slept too hard at night. Jing Shizi, who had just arrived for a while, looked dazed - why did everything involve his fall? He didn't want to fall into eternal sin because of this fall, did he?

Xia Tingzhen seemed unheard of when they whispered. Her sharp eyes looked at the direction of the Zen academy and didn't know what she was thinking.

Zhan Yunzhu didn't know when to stand beside him. He asked in a voice that almost only two people could hear: "I don't know Xia Shoufu's opinion on this matter?"

Xia Tingzhen didn't look at him, but her sight was still fixed on the Zen yard in front of her: "it's your best skill to guess the emperor's heart."

Zhan Yunzhu's tone was humble: "the lower official is young and ignorant."

"How about I teach you?"

Xia Tingzhen's tone was still cold, but Zhan Yunzhu was stunned.

Since entering the palace, he has expressed his kindness to the chief assistant in public and in private.

No money to read novels? Give you cash or some coins and get it within 1 day! Pay attention to the public · public · number [book friend base camp], get it for free!

He never wanted to fight against this big and deep-rooted chief assistant——

At least he doesn't have the ability now.

As for the so-called family feud, those meaningless things that would only cause trouble were never considered by him.

All he wants is to go up.

Ji Xiu can give him too little help now. He has seen it clearly in the palace these days. In the emperor's heart, Xia Tingzhen still has the most say——

After Xia Han and Xia Xi had such a thing one after another, although the chief assistant was angry and some forces in his hands were dispersed, his own position was still irreplaceable.

This is not only because the emperor's trust for many years is not easy to collapse, but also because the Xia adult has enough means.

These means are what Jixiu lacks and what Jixiu will never learn.

He knows very well that the best way to face such an opponent is to show weakness and kindness.

Now, he seems to have finally waited for a response from the other party——

If we can grasp it properly, it may be a timely rain for him who is not optimistic recently.

Therefore, Zhan Yunzhu lowered his head slightly and said in a slow voice, "I hope you can give me some advice."
