Chapter 439

Jixiu's fist trembled.

Sure enough!

"Your Majesty, if you want to tell the truth from the truth in Princess sun's words, it's not difficult." an official thought about it and said, "just bring the maid mentioned in Princess sun's words and tell the place and hour of that night in public."

After the accident, Princess sun was kept in solitary confinement for interrogation. Therefore, there was no need to worry about the possibility of communicating with the maid in advance.

Normally, it's true - Ji Xiu's look keeps changing. Now he just feels that everything in front of him is unspeakably strange. He's thinking, who is Zhan Yunzhu working for this time

Is that Xia Tingzhen?

Xia Tingzhen persuaded sun Taifei?

But how did the old fox do this under the emperor's eyes?

Ji Xiu's thoughts were complicated and confused until the maid was brought up. The confession he said in fear was almost the same as that of Princess sun.

Ji Xiu stared at the maid: "your master and servant must have agreed in advance how to slander our official!"

"Lord Ji is worried." Han Yan said expressionless, "Princess sun was personally detained and interrogated by the lower officer. During this period, not to mention her personal maid, she has never seen a fly from outside. She has no chance to agree with anyone."

Hearing this, Ji Xiu felt cold from the deepest part of his heart.

Princess sun has never seen anyone?

Not even Xia Tingzhen?

Who persuaded her, and who made a confession for her with the maid?!

Thinking of a possibility, Ji Xiu looked at the emperor on the seat and said, "Your Majesty, in order to protect the king of Hunan, imperial concubine sun has enough motivation to slander her officials. It is because of this letter that can be easily imitated and only two confessions that have no material evidence to prove... I'm afraid it's not enough to condemn her officials! And she can never admit what she hasn't done!"

Emperor Qingming looked at him noncommittally.

That alone is not enough to convict immediately.

So——

"Han Yan."

"I'm here."

"Take someone to search Ji Shangshu's residence carefully immediately, and don't miss any corner."

Han Yan responded immediately.

Emperor Qingming said to Ji Xiu, "if Ji Shangshu didn't do this, I would never have wronged Ji Shangshu - I sent someone to search for it to prove it."

Ji Xiu's face was tense: "I understand."

After sun Taifei identified him, the arrest guard went to search his residence, but only according to the rules.

But judging from today's situation, maybe something that doesn't belong to him will be found!

Facing this unknown situation, Ji Xiu was impatient and nervous.

The arrest guard quickly arrived at Ji Xiu's residence in the palace.

"Gentlemen, this is the residence of our master Ji Shangshu... I don't know what you're doing?" the servant in charge asked in a fog when he saw the wanted guard wearing a knife around the waist.

Aren't these people in the wrong place?

Wei Ding, a wanted official beside Han Yan, said: "Ji Shangshu is suspected of murdering the Empress Dowager. We'll come to search according to your Majesty's order!"

"Plot... Murder the Empress Dowager?!" the servant whispered, "it's impossible!"

The party ignored him and immediately rushed everywhere to search.

Ji Wanyou, standing in the corridor dressed as a servant, looked at these people with shaking eyes.

Murder the Empress Dowager

Such a crime is enough to ruin her Ji family!

"How could it involve the master..."

"Didn't I hear that the murderer was Princess sun?"

"Where is the master now..."

"What shall we do?"

Listening to the flustered and restless voices of the servants in her ears, Ji Wanyou turned pale. Scenes by the lotus pond this morning flashed in her mind. Those beautiful pictures that should have made her happy and sweet

The anti crime guard searched everywhere, and Han Yan's cold voice sounded from time to time: "don't let go of any corner! Don't miss anything suspicious!"

Something suspicious?

Ji Wanyou looked pale and confused towards the bedroom with the door open.

Han Yan went in himself.

The servant in charge also hurried in and said nervously: "there must be some misunderstanding. My adult can never do such a thing..."

Han Yan turned a deaf ear to this and only took his subordinates to search every place carefully with a business look.

A moment later, a police guard found an undivided sachet on an indigo robe hanging on the screen.

The wanted guard sniffed the sachet between his nose and said, "Sir, there seems to be a smell of herbal medicine in it."

"Herbal medicine?" Han Yan's eyes flashed and said, "take it."

"Yes."

The search methods of the arrest guard have always been meticulous. He carefully examined the whole yard inside and outside. Even the floor tiles in the yard were slightly loose. It was three feet away from digging the ground.

After searching for more than half an hour, the arrest guards responsible for searching everywhere returned to the hospital one after another.

"Sir, just search!"

Han Yan nodded and said, "go back with me and reply to your majesty."

Watching a group of arrest guards go out of the courtyard, Ji Wan Youqiang starts with his trembling legs and quickly follows him.

She's going to find her father!

She's going to see it with her own eyes!

"Girl..." the servant in charge shouted low. Seeing that the girl didn't look back, he sighed and hurried to follow.

Han Yan and his party soon returned to the conference hall with something suspicious.

Eliminate them one by one in public, and the final focus is on the sachet.

"This sachet is the object of Ji Shangshu?" emperor Qingming asked with confirmation.

Ji Xiu's tone did not hesitate: "return to your majesty, this is really a minister's thing."

His daughter sewed it for him and gave it to him this morning. It is said that it contained something to calm the mind and ward off evil spirits. He took it with him all day until he was called here for discussion.

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!

After hearing him admit it, Emperor Qingming nodded slightly.

Just admit it.

Since it is admitted, then everything that follows is doomed to have no room to return to the world.

He also gave a reasonable explanation to the people all over the world and the king of Yan.

"It is said that doctor Zheng came to examine this sachet." emperor Qingming ordered.

Li Ji responded and arranged it immediately.

Doctor Zheng came quickly.

Under the attention of the people, the things in the sachet were poured into the tray. Doctor Zheng held silver tweezers and looked carefully.

Fine cinnabar, dried wormwood, rhinoceros horn pieces

And one... Fragrant pill?

Doctor Zheng picked up the brown "fragrant pill" with tweezers in his hand and looked carefully in front of him.

At this time, Princess sun, kneeling on one side, suddenly said, "emperor, that's the poison!... it was the thing that Ji Shangshu handed over to Cuizhu that day!"

Ji Xiu suddenly panicked when he heard the speech and hurriedly said, "it's ridiculous! If it's really the poison and such hard evidence, why should I put it in the personal sachet if I don't destroy it as soon as possible! This planting is too far fetched!"

Princess sun sneered: "Destroy? Last night, I saw with my own eyes that the pear soup was sprinkled on the blanket and changed the color in only two quarters of an hour... You must know that this poison is very toxic. Even if it is dissolved in water and poured into the soil, it will leave something different. There are traces to follow... And the Empress Dowager just had an accident last night. Of course you dare not move easily in this palace at such a critical moment Hand destroy! "

In this way, it is reasonable to hide it in a sachet full of herbs!

"... I know a fart!" Ji Xiu was so angry that he said anything on the spot: "why this poison is in this sachet is still unknown!"

Doctor Zheng couldn't help his tongue because of the fierce dialogue. He could tell it was poison at a glance. Why are these people so capable?

He hasn't even spoken yet.

"Gentlemen, this is not a poison..." doctor Zheng crushed the fragrant pill between his fingers and said, "it's just sandalwood pill."

"...?" Princess sun, who was arguing with Ji Xiu, looked sluggish. Why was it different from what she said in advance?

"Fragrant pill?" emperor Qingming narrowed his eyes: "can the imperial doctor see clearly?"

"Your Majesty, I will never read it wrong. Moreover, it is not difficult to identify it." when the doctor Zheng spoke, he put the crushed incense pill into a small silver lamp on one side, took a candle from the candlestick on the other side and lit the incense pill.

Soon, there was a faint aroma of sandalwood.

Several officials nodded slightly.

"This is really sandalwood..."

"HMM... it smells good, and it smells good..."

"It smells like Jiexiang residence system..."

"When it comes to sandalwood, there are more than Fu pavilions."

——Are you still here?

It should be the incense fight Conference!

The uncontrolled situation appeared in front of him again. Emperor Qingming was very upset, endured his anger and looked in the direction of Zhan Yunzhu without trace.

The broom star can't even do such a small thing well. Dare you promise him that he will be safe?

It seems that it's just a waste that can't do anything by just talking with one mouth!

Aware of the sight of the emperor, he was always calm and rational in front of people, such as Zhan Yunzhu. At this moment, the bottom of his eyes could not help showing a look of panic.

The emperor seems to have a deep prejudice against him recently. This is his only chance to turn over

To this end, he even had to choose to take the whole Ji family as a chip!

And even without these, depending on the importance of the matter alone, if he fails, the consequences will undoubtedly be unimaginable

But the pill was clearly put in by him. Why on earth did it become a fragrant pill?!

Who did it!

Looking at the silver lamp still emitting light green smoke, Zhan Yunzhu's palm was filled with cold sweat.

Xia Tingzhen, who sat at the head of Wen Chen, still couldn't see the slightest difference.

"The Emperor... It's him..." Princess sun came back and said, "it's true that Ji Xiu instigated me to poison the Empress Dowager. That letter..."

"Your Majesty, minister, you are innocent!" Ji Xiu's voice was determined to interrupt Princess sun's words. He looked at Emperor Ming with a slightly red fundus of eyes with a stubborn color.
