Although many important officials and women think that the whole people in the hall are suspects, this practice is too much - it's true that all the civil and military officials of the whole dynasty have the idea of killing the king, and the Chu family can still sit in the Royal chair?!
In particular, after two also asked men and women to separate to the temple or screen after undressing for inspection, which is an insult to the Manchu Dynasty, good or bad!
But empress Gu and empress Jiang took the lead in asking several high-ranking ladies to go to the side hall to watch the palace people undress and untie them, check whether there are things and traces of poison, and everyone lost their voice: there is no special treatment for their parents and their wives, let alone you courtiers?
…… The reason for this is that the Empress Dowager party and the Queen's party do not trust each other.
The Queen's party suspected that this was arranged by the Queen's party, and the Queen's party also suspected that this was a premeditated plan of the Queen's party for a long time!
I'm afraid that it's the other side's work, the other side's call to catch the thief, and I want to catch the real thief at the same time. So empress Gu and empress Jiang, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, can only check together. When they prove their innocence, they open their eyes to the other side to avoid being fooled!
Empress Gu and empress Jiang were not suspected, and their entourage was proved innocent. Then, after the screen of the main hall, the women went to the main hall. Everyone, including the servants and the ignorant children, all received a strict inspection in front of the public.
The inspection is not over yet - the second queen personally presided over and began to check the whereabouts of all the people since they entered the palace gate. They should send people to the neighborhood to check which section of railing, which pillar and which seat they have leaned against!
It's ok if I don't mention the railing after two times. When I mention the railing, Qiu Hualan suddenly "clatters" in her heart: "just now I was talking and laughing with my cousin Xin at the outer railing. It seems that someone threw something under the flower tree outside the railing at the corner At that time, cousin Xin thought it was snow reflecting light. Did it have anything to do with the assassination of Shengjia? "
Isn't that to say, she and Xin Fubing are trapped?!
In this moment, the city can't help feeling dizzy!
Even if the emperor is a puppet, even his mother, Empress Dowager Gu, can't bear the crime of regicide! Even if the emperor is not dead yet, if something wrong is found under the flower tree, and Qiu Zhaolan and Xin Fubing can't make it clear - they are both doomed!
Not only they, their relatives and friends behind them, even the famous Jiang family, may not be able to survive!
"What to do?!" Qiutiaolang calmed himself and thought quickly about the countermeasures. "Now I can't tell cousin Xin that I can't find a safe chance at the moment. Secondly, if I really want to plant empress party to kill the monarch, she doesn't know anything about the natural reaction - and she can't say in advance that there may be something related to the plot of holy riding under the flower tree. The flower tree is too close to the place where we laugh It's so close! The Empress Dowager party will surely say that we only confessed under pressure! "
That only choice, can wait for thing to be checked out, when interrogate a crime, die not to admit!
"Why didn't you wake up just now? I saw the sound of footsteps and throwing things in the corner of my clothes. Why didn't I catch up? " "Even though I was suspicious, I was already talking to cousin Xin, but was interrupted by the waiter who rushed into the hall. Now it seems that the waiter is not right! Although it's true that shortly after he entered the palace, Emperor Fengjia arrived, but Who knows if he is there looking at the wind and drawing our attention away in time to avoid our suspicion? "
But now it's too late to regret - the palace people have already walked towards the gate to search for the railing.
According to the practice of empress Gu and empress Jiang not trusting each other, but also proving each other's innocence at the moment, it is natural that there are palace people on both sides. Qiu Tailan estimated that in order to appear more natural, the Empress Dowager party should pretend to discover things under the flower tree without passing through, so their search time should be longer.
But to her surprise, the palace people did not come back for a long time to report: "that railing has been searched, and it has been checked outside the railing. There is nothing wrong."
This reply didn't make the second generation think it was wrong, because the second generation didn't have any doubt about the two younger generation, Qiu Xulan and Xin Fubing. However, qiutiailan didn't know that he would be confused about the real murderer after the second attack, so he stayed for a long time: "how does that scene have nothing to do with the poisoning of Shengjia? Or is it not the Empress Dowager's side? "
It's not the empress dowager, but the empress as usual. Qiu drai Lanxiao's husband's house has Xue Chang's promise, but he doesn't know the specific progress, so it's inevitable to speculate: "did the empress party decide to start ahead of time, and the reason why we chose Xin Fubing and I to throw things near the flower tree was to help us to talk and laugh?"
Thinking about it like this, I was still very worried. "What did the man throw? I can't find it this time. It may be hard to find it. But what must have been thrown? I will never hear the strange noise in the snow! " It's hard to feel sad. "Now, Tucao has been too much to her brain. Now she thinks she knows: even if we want to make complaints about our jokes, even if it is hard to find, what if it is discovered? Then cousin Xin and I are ready-made scapegoats, aren't we? "
She knew that empress Jiang and old lady Tao had a quarrel with each other, so she naturally doubted, "so when sacrifice is needed, I will be the first one to be pushed out, right?"The more he thought about it, the angrier he was, the more he felt that his sleeve had been pulled. He was shocked by autumn, and he was back to his mind. However, Su he said in a low voice behind him, "the old lady just called back for you twice!"
"Grandma, my granddaughter-in-law just lost her mind. I hope you will forgive me!" Hearing the words, autumn LAN quickly whispers to old lady Tao to apologize.
Old lady Tao said lightly: "you haven't seen such an occasion. It's not surprising that you are scared Don't worry, it has nothing to do with us. Calm down and don't lose our family's face! "
Although the tone is calm, it means a lot.
Autumn drag LAN feels in the heart to block flustered, but has to bow to lead the training: "granddaughter-in-law knew!"
However, although her abnormality was found even by the old lady Tao sitting in front of her, there was no doubt about it. Because a lot of young women and young ladies, this will look better than her and not go anywhere.
In the end, this matter is too big. Even if they have a clear conscience, they don't need to worry about the fire burning on themselves like qiutiailan. However, if you think about the consequences caused by this tonight, you will feel shivering!
It's just a surprise that it's been till dawn, and everyone has checked and checked, but no doubt has been found!
Even though empress Gu and empress Jiang took the lead in inspecting and explaining what they had done in the place where they had been since they entered the palace, these two people, with the palace city as their home, could not be regarded as an example. They left all the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and their families in the palace until they found out the murderer?
So in the early morning of the first day of the first lunar month, the palace gate, which was suddenly closed and heavily guarded from midnight, finally opened.
All the people who left the palace in long lines were tired physically and mentally, but they couldn't rest at home immediately.
Because those who didn't come back after a night were so anxious that they had to explain and appease. Old lady Tao especially praised Sheng Shishui for doing a good job in this regard: "your eight sisters in law are pregnant. It's really not appropriate to tell her about this."
Last night, when we went to a banquet in the Jiang family, we didn't reply. Even the servant who was sent to inquire about the news was blocked outside the palace. In the current situation, Sheng Shishui almost thought that the Empress Dowager's party had come to see a dagger and left the Jiang family in the palace!
However, she still kept her quiet in front of little Dow: "grandma, they are all tired. They didn't go in front of the door to say hello and then settle down. No need to say hello! Starling especially drank too much and vomited so badly that he was afraid to quarrel with you when he came back. So my grandfather asked him to stay in the front guest house for one night. You may as well settle him down! "
At this meeting, I'm afraid that little Dow is still sleeping soundly.
Old lady Tao has always attached great importance to the little Taos. She is very satisfied with the way of holding the dead water.
However, she didn't have time to boast much. Then she had to arrange someone to admonish the younger generation, servants and so on. She was not allowed to talk about the poisoning of the saint driver at the new year's Eve banquet, so as not to cause trouble. To make use of this, she had to wait for the Duke of Qin to come up with the rules!
But autumn drag LAN is not in the mood to listen to these now, she now a mind all put in: "19? Grandmother, last night, 19 said that the palace went to confront Dai Cong and other people, but later his Majesty was poisoned and the Palace door was closed. No one could enter the palace, but he did not know if he had come back. "
Old lady Tao was also concerned about the answer to this question. She immediately sent someone to inquire about it.
Fortunately, there was a letter of approval soon: "the 19th childe and the eldest childe wanted to go back to the palace after their confrontation with Dai Cong's Witness last night. At that time, the palace gate was closed. The two women's edicts forbid everyone to enter and leave, so they went to another court near the palace gate to rest. This meeting has come back and is being called to sacrifice by the old master! "
Old lady Tao was relieved at the same time as qiutiailan. The former looked around and said: "first of all, let's go down and get some sleep When they have finished sacrificing their ancestors, they still have to be busy! "
On the way back to the fourth room, the water of shengshishui could not catch up with her and asked her a few questions. Hearing her story, she couldn't help but look pale: "how could this happen? This is in full view of the public! "
"What's more strange is that the Empress Dowager and the fourth aunt are turning over the people and things in the whole hall!" A low voice, "even if it's a product, it's only a mockery when it's checked! That's the way it is. Don't even find the poisons. You think it's weird? "
Sheng Shishui was surprised and said: "no poison found? Is your majesty poisoned out of the air? "
"Only the drink your majesty drank was poisonous, but there were only a dozen breaths in front of your Majesty's entrance, which was tasted by a little waiter." "Autumn drag LAN sighed," that small inside attendants nothing! "
Sheng Shishui's eyebrows are locked tightly. When he looks up, he sees that he has arrived at the courtyard of autumn billows. He stops walking: "go back to have a rest first, alas, a good day..."
"Grandma said it had nothing to do with our family. Don't worry too much about my sister-in-law." Autumn drag LAN comfort her a few words - although Sheng Shishui left home, did not personally experience the scene of the emperor's poisoning, but was more frightened. After all, the autumn swaying LAN and others at the banquet knew what had happened, but they didn't know anything about the passing water - how many terrible possibilities had she thought about that night?
However, the storm was coming. They didn't have time to talk much. After a few words, they went back to the house to settle down.She is really tired to say that she is tired, but she can't sleep when she is put on the couch. I'm afraid that I will continue to be busy, so I have to force myself to sleep Half asleep and half awake, I suddenly felt that the tent was winded up by a strong wind, and I followed a man who came in with a strong momentum, but stopped at the edge of the couch, as if he had stopped.
Autumn traction LAN first surprised, then looked, but saw the river is bending down, reaching out to his face.
"What's the matter?" See the excitement that his eye ground holds grudgingly, the fog water that autumn drags LAN a head!
