Chapter 655 Poisoning
This person is none other than Princess Yongning.
Queen Mother Guo secretly thought that she was the Queen Mother, so why did she have to wait here to wait for these two people to decide the winner? Unexpectedly, the attention of everyone present was attracted by Qin Zhao and Zhang Yun, and no one seemed to regard her as the Queen Mother as a respected person.
Only Princess Yongning still remembers her as the Queen Mother.
Nianyun listened to Princess Yongning's instructions, moved the imperial concubine chair over, and helped Queen Mother Guo sit down.
Queen Mother Guo regretted it after she sat down. She was not interested in playing chess and didn't understand why these people liked to waste their time on such things. She didn't know whether it was because she was old or because playing chess was too boring for her.
, she looked drowsy.
She suddenly became conscious because of the warm applause that rang out around her.
"What happened?" Queen Mother Guo's voice was a little hoarse.
Nianyun leaned over and said to Queen Mother Guo: "Miss Qin just won."
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother Guo sneered: "If you win, you win. Why are you making such a fuss?"
A bunch of ignorant country bumpkins.
"That's what the empress said." Nianyun responded in a low voice.
On the other side, Qin Zhao stretched. She felt tired after playing chess for the first time. Zhang Yun was good at chess and it was hard for her to win this time.
Since her awakening, she has never had to take more than an hour to win a game.
Zhang Yun was in high spirits. She sincerely admired Qin Zhao. She came to Qin Zhao excitedly and said: "Miss Qin's chess skills are really superb, which makes the girls of the country admire her."
Qin Zhao felt like her eyelids were fighting. She didn't know why she felt so sleepy while playing chess. Wasn't it time for lunch and nap?
She steeled herself and said, "Miss Zhang's chess skills are also very good. It's a fluke that I can win."
"Miss Qin is not only superb at chess, she is also humble. No wonder Miss Qin is so valued by the emperor." Zhang Yun said to herself.
Qin Zhao chuckled, thinking that she was valued by Xiao Ce not because of her good chess skills.
Baozhu had already noticed that Qin Zhao was not in good spirits. In fact, when Qin Zhao was playing chess, she noticed that her master seemed to be very sleepy. The girl obviously went to bed early yesterday, but it was not too early to get up today.
"Is the girl okay?" Bao Zhu stepped forward and asked worriedly.
Qin Zhao shook her head, trying to say that she was fine, but for some reason she became more and more dizzy. The next moment, she felt dizzy, her vision turned dark, and she lost consciousness...
Qin Zhao's sudden fainting shocked everyone present, Baozhu was even more frightened, "It's not good, the girl fainted..."
For such a large flower party, there will always be imperial doctors waiting to be dispatched.
As soon as Baozhu shouted, some imperial doctors rushed over. One was Imperial Physician Ke and the other was Imperial Physician Wu.
Imperial Physician Ke was Empress Dowager Guo's exclusive physician and did not dare to step forward easily. Imperial Physician Wu quickly went to Qin Zhao to take his pulse. After taking the pulse, he frowned.
Baozhu saw something was wrong and asked, "What happened to Miss Qin?"
Doctor Wu took her pulse again and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, Miss Qin has been poisoned."
Baozhu's face changed slightly: "Master Wu, are you sure our girl has been poisoned?"
Over there, Queen Mother Guo sneered and raised her lips when she heard this: "She is playing chess here so well, how could she be poisoned? Mr. Wu, are you sure Qin is poisoned?"
Qin Zhao was really going to be poisoned, why didn't he die immediately?
"My official is sure that Miss Qin's symptoms are poisoning." Dr. Wu replied, he did not dare to make a fuss about this kind of thing.
When Xiao Linzi saw that something was wrong with Qin Zhao's situation, he dared not stay in the imperial garden and quickly went to Yangxin Hall to report the news.
Xiao Ce received the news and immediately came to the Royal Garden.
When he arrived, the place was crowded. Coincidentally, Qin Zhao had just woken up.
He quickly walked to Qin Zhao and asked, "Are you okay?"
Qin Zhaoren was still a little confused. She shook her groggy head: "What's wrong with me?"
Seeing her confused look, Xiao Ce knew that he couldn't get anything out of the question. He called Dr. Wu over and questioned her carefully, and Dr. Wu answered immediately.
The poison Qin Zhao was poisoned was not uncommon and could not kill anyone, but he would fall into a coma. It was somewhat similar to the poison that the Empress Dowager had been poisoned before, but it was not as toxic as that drug.
"Am I poisoned?" Qin Zhao finally realized what he was doing and his mind was gradually clearing up.
When was she poisoned and why didn't she notice it at all?
"Thoroughly check everyone and everything on site!" Xiao Ce said and looked around: "Can anyone leave just now?!"
"Just now, my dear sister, I immediately asked the guards to maintain a state of security. No one has left." The one who replied was Princess Yongning.
When Qin Zhao heard Princess Yongning's voice, he remembered that it was Princess Yongning who came to find her today. If it hadn't been for this woman, that person wouldn't have been able to kill her.
Who on earth used what method to attack her? She didn't even notice.
Looking back now, she always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was.
Xiao Ce gave the order and began to thoroughly investigate the scene.
The poison was discovered quickly and was planted on the chessboard. Not only was the chessboard poisonous, but the imperial concubine chair that Queen Mother Guo had just sat on was also poisonous.
When this was discovered, everyone's strange eyes were fixed on Queen Mother Guo, and the scene became particularly quiet.
At this moment, Qin Zhao finally figured out what the problem was.
It is impossible for a master of palace fighting like Queen Mother Guo to make such a stupid mistake. Someone was clearly putting the blame on Queen Mother Guo. Although she had been concentrating on playing chess with Zhang Yun before, she could also hear the movements around her.
She remembered that Princess Yongning had spoken to Queen Mother Guo. At that time, Princess Yongning had the opportunity to poison the imperial concubine chair where Queen Mother Guo was sitting.
If the poison will invade the skin as soon as it touches the skin, then Queen Mother Guo must have been poisoned just now, right? Princess Yongning was standing next to Queen Mother Guo at that time, and then detoxified Queen Mother Guo, so this matter could be hidden from the public.
No wonder Princess Yongning wants to drag her into the water, because she is the most critical link in Princess Yongning's plan and she is indispensable.
Princess Yongning was not afraid that she would guess that she was the one responsible for the poisoning, because both Princess Yongning and her had the goal of getting rid of Queen Mother Guo, and it was impossible for her to undermine Princess Yongning.
The only thing she could do was to remain silent.
After the initial shock, Empress Dowager Guo finally came to her senses and said sharply: "Emperor, it must be the Qin family that has framed the family!"
Xiao Ce originally doubted the authenticity of Queen Mother Guo's poisoning, but when he saw Queen Mother Guo throwing the blame on Qin Zhao's head, his face instantly sank: "What evidence does Queen Mother have to prove that Qin Zhao poisoned herself? There is evidence at this moment.
Indicate that it was the Queen Mother who poisoned Qin Zhao!"
Seeing Xiao Ce facing Qin Zhao, Queen Mother Guo suddenly became angry and said: "You would rather face this witch than trust the Ai family? Emperor, think about it, how could the Ai family be so stupid and do such unsavory things in public?"
If the Ai family really wants to attack the Qin family, there are many ways, and there is no need to ruin their reputation in this way."
