Chapter 425

"Is this the source of infection?"

Chu Yunhan almost trembled and pointed to the dirty cloth that Ling Jingxuan had left on the table. It was actually sewn into the inner layer of the clothes. Even if they were more careful, they couldn't find out. Damn, who was that man? How could he come up with such a dark and vicious trick This is not just a matter of fighting for power and power. If there is no Jingxuan, smallpox may have spread in the imperial palace. At that time, the Imperial Palace and even the imperial city will become a dead city. What's the meaning of winning the throne? Just to kill Xiao Qi, why can it be so cruel?

"Well, this cloth is old and decayed. It should have been preserved for many years. Maybe they wanted to use it for a long time, but they haven't found a chance."

Looking at the worn-out cloth, Ling Jingxuan sighed. He sewed the cloth with smallpox into Xiao Qi's clothes. Even if they found it, it was very difficult to trace it. Because they didn't know who it was. When they sewed the cloth in, they had to start from Xiaoqi Lingling. At that time, the scope of their involvement would be too wide In order to track down the palace, Yan Shengzhi is afraid to be the first one to agree. In short, even if they find the cloth, they can only prove that Xiao Qi was indeed harmed. If they want to trace, it will be extremely difficult.

"What shall we do now? Report to my cousin and let him intervene in the investigation? "

Zeng Shaoqing's face is rare without any playful expression, and her expression is indescribable and dignified. Jingxuan's previous arrangements clearly meant that he did not want his big cousin to interfere in the matter. He was prepared to find out the real culprit and find out the culprit in the time that Sikong Tama won for them. Now, they find out a piece of cloth from his clothes. If they want to find out the person behind the scenes, they must be on a large scale It is impossible for the emperor not to be disturbed.

"Am I crazy? Me?"

With his eyes on the cloth, Ling Jingxuan gives him a bad look and asks the emperor to put in a foot. The matter will only become more complicated: "Chunxiang, show Dong Xiang the torn imperial uniform to have a look, and may determine when the clothes were made?"

It is true that large-scale tracing is sure to disturb the emperor. There are many ways to solve the problem. It is not necessary to arrest the relevant persons on a large scale and torture them. The exclusion method can also help him find out the criminals.

"Yes"

Chunxiang picked up the clothes on the ground and sent them to Dong Xiang. Yan Shengrui did not speak from the beginning to the end. With the ability of his daughter-in-law, his rash interruption would only disturb his rhythm. At this time, he was willing to push behind him and support him in silence.

Dong Xiang, who took over the clothes, looked over and over again. He even picked out the sewing thread and looked at it carefully. At last, he made sure to look at Ling Jingxuan: "it's not wrong, princess. This royal uniform was sent from the embroidery department last month. According to the regulations of the palace, two new sets of winter royal clothes will be issued to the princes every month, and the old ones will only be replaced when the new ones cannot be replaced The clothes were just brought in soon, so the seventh Royal Highness wore the newly acquired two royal robes in half a month before the onset of the disease. "

The rules in the palace are very strict. The clothes they wear are not the same as those kept in the house. If they have a new one, they will take the old one to wear for his highness. They will bear the sin of deceiving the Lord.

"How often is Xiaoqi's imperial uniform starched

After a little silence, Ling Jingxuan asked again. Dong Xiang didn't even think about it. He immediately answered him: "two days, it's not easy to dry the winter clothes after being washed. The court clothes are only needed to be worn when they go to the imperial court and accompany the emperor. Generally, they are washed once every two days. This dress should have been starched and washed just before the seventh Prince's illness."

"Who usually washes Xiao Qi's clothes?"

"The clothes of the masters of the palace are all uniformly washed by the maids of the washing clothes department. They will send them back after they have been washed and dried. The seventh Royal Highness is the emperor's legitimate son, and his clothes should be starched and washed by a specially assigned person. This can only be known by asking the lady in charge of the washing clothes department."

"Is it?"

Ling Jingxuan hooked his lips and finally found the Crux: "Yan Shan, you go to the washing room immediately and find out who is responsible for washing the clothes of the seventh prince. By the way, see if they have any signs of disease. If not, the prisoners are basically them. Remember, don't scare the snake."

If you're lucky, that person should not have been killed. After all, it hasn't broken out yet. It's very likely that people who have been using their hands and feet are still alive.

"Yes"

Yan Shan is not stupid. There is no time to delay at this time. Basically, when he agrees to come down, his figure disappears in their sight. Yan Shengrui turns his head and looks at his daughter-in-law: "why lock in the starching maid? Generally speaking, the suspicion of embroidery department should be the biggest "

" it's very simple, because Xiao Qi got sick after washing clothes. "

Although it may have been infected for a long time, the smallpox is still in the incubation period and has not been exposed. Therefore, he will let Yan Shan see if there are any symptoms of the disease in the palace maids. If there is, the embroidery department can not escape. If not, it is obvious that the clothes were sewn into the fabric infected with smallpox virus because of the last sizing Of course, we can't rule out the possibility of committing crimes in the inner hall of Fuqing palace. However, Dong Xiang and Dong Xiang are cautious in everything, and their chances of committing crimes are not high."I've learned that if it's the embroidery department, the smallpox virus hidden in the clothes will be washed out during the washing process. Undoubtedly, the maid in charge of the washing is more directly exposed to the virus than Xiao Qi, and the chance of getting sick is even higher than that of Xiao Qi. If they are sick, we just need to lock in xiuniang who is responsible for making clothes for Xiaoqi. On the contrary, if they are not sick, this one will happen It has nothing to do with the embroidery department, but when you have time to slowly open the stitches of clothes and carefully sew the cloth in, there is nothing else except the starched maid. "

Yan Shengrui is also a little transparent, combined with the task that Ling Jingxuan previously assigned to Yan Shan, he soon integrated the whole thing through.

"And in this way, they can target Xiao Qi and only let him get smallpox."

Chu Yunhan almost gnawed his teeth and said it. Those people were so mean and vicious that he made up his mind to put Xiao Qi to death at the beginning.

"Ha ha This man's strategy is not low. As I said just now, this cloth has been preserved for several years. I heard that before Yunhan was abandoned, smallpox broke out in xialiang City, which is not far from the capital. This cloth is probably obtained from the dead. If my estimation is correct, then the other party should want to use it on Yunhan, but After a while, Yunhan was abandoned, and this cloth was not used for the time being. Later, Yunhan fled from the palace, and the plot was silent. As for why it was used on Xiao Qi, I think it is those people who think Xiao Qi is more threatening than Yun Han What's more, once Xiao Qi has something to do with him, how can Yun Han get along with him day and night? Their plan may be to report Xiaoqi to the emperor when it is confirmed that Xiaoqi is infected with smallpox. The emperor will order Xiaoqi to be executed even if he refuses to give up for the sake of the palace and most people's lives. Smallpox will not spread. If the situation is out of control, smallpox will spread in Fuqing Palace at most. It will be better if you are infected or not People will die, and the event of xialiang city may leave a shadow in the emperor's mind. The emperor will not allow his palace to become the same as xialiang city. "

The sneer on his lips was more and more brilliant, but Ling Jingxuan's eyes did not have any smile. This man could not tolerate it. The infection rate of smallpox was quite terrible. He thought everything would be under his control? Hum, he can't help looking up to himself. If he hadn't developed the vaccinia in time, the imperial city would be a dead city in a short time. By then, thousands of people would die. Even if he was a killer in his previous life, he couldn't help but feel numb when he thought of that picture, but the man In any case, he would not let him live any longer.

"Damn it.

After his analysis, Chu Yunhan couldn't help clenching his fist. In order to get rid of him and Xiao Qi, he did not hesitate to gamble on the people of the imperial city? Is that man not afraid to kill himself?

"Cloud cold."

Zeng Shaoqing hugs him heartily, and his right hand is wrapped in his clenched fist. Ling Jingxuan in the opposite side sighs helplessly. His hands under the table are closely linked with Yan Shengrui. This fact is really cruel to Yun Han, but what is more cruel is the main emissary behind the scenes. Yun Han doesn't have to suffer because of the cruelty of the other party. It's just called I'm afraid the only thing they miss is his appearance? He will let them know how serious it is to miss him.

"Touch!"

About an hour later, under the cover of other shadow guards, Yan Shan, together with the other two shadow guards, rudely threw two maidens who looked like Chunxiang and their age in front of them. Yan Shengrui's eyes sank, and their eyes were like sharp blades. The two maids trembled with fear. They wanted to kneel down and kowtow to them.

"Princess, these two people are the maids who wash clothes for his highness seven."

After the other two shadow guards retreated, Yan Shan knelt down in front of them. When he went to the washing clothes department, he directly caught the nurse in charge of the washing clothes department. Under a threat, the old man almost didn't urinate. He honestly confessed what he wanted to know. According to the Imperial concubine's command, he observed the two men in the dark for a long time to make sure that they were not infected Later, he began to arrest them. Before leaving, he also used the power of Shengqin palace to threaten the mother in charge. Any question about their whereabouts was not allowed to tell the story.

"I think you've all heard of me? Do you want to explain it yourself, or do you want to do it yourself? "

With a cold glance at the two people paralyzed on the ground, Ling Jingxuan carries the tea that Chunxiang has just sent them. Yan Shengrui is silent. Although they are much more angry and anxious than him, in terms of torture, regardless of whether they admit it or not, Ling Jingxuan's means are higher than them, and they directly make each other worse than death.

"Shengsheng is the princess Empress... "

One of the maids gives Yan Shengrui a shaky look. It's not necessary to think about it. The person who claims to be his own concubine must be the Shengqin princess who has been widely circulated in recent months. I'm afraid that all the three-year-old children have heard of his means, let alone them? They can't help but look at Chu Yunhan. Where did they offend this evil star?
