Chu Xinyuan’s heart sank, sinking to the ground.
In such a tight trap, it is indeed possible that someone from Prince Liang's Mansion is involved, but he has no clue yet!
He raised his head, looked at the man with such a majestic power and dark eyes, and said in a harsh voice: "Father, I want to poison my seventh brother, so I sent the person next to me to follow Yue Xi to do it personally.
, do you want everyone to know that you are from the Erchen sect? In your eyes, is Erchen so stupid?"
Emperor: "..."
The emperor was also very angry about this matter.
Early this morning, the Tianlao people did not dare to hide anything and reported in detail the incident of Chu Jingxian’s near poisoning last night.
Because there were two jailers changing guard at that time, the entire jailer department knew that the food was delivered by the personal entourage of King Liang, and those jailers died of poisoning after eating the food. How dare they when it comes to King Liang.
Concealed?
When the emperor heard this, he was very angry.
He just locked Lao Qi in there for one night, but Lao Qi almost died in the hands of someone with intentions.
Although Lao Qi is just a useless dude, he is still his son!
Taking action against the prince, and the person doing it may also be the prince, which is enough to make him furious.
Why did he give birth to such a bunch of careless things?
But after calming down, he felt something was wrong.
Whether it’s the confession, the evidence, or the fact that Lao Qi was poisoned, everything points to Lao Wu.
Let’s talk about the confession first. The eldest palace maid was interrogated by Jiang Yi himself. Because no one could bear the severe punishment, the poison in the eldest palace maid’s mouth was removed, her teeth were pulled out one by one, her fingernails were peeled off piece by piece, and even
The finger bones were also twisted one by one. The maid could not survive or die. She finally collapsed and poured out all the bamboo tubes like beans.
It is clear why she is loyal to Lao Wu and who she comes into contact with.
When she was very young, her father died and her mother only gave birth to her. The family wanted to seize their family property, so they forced her mother to death and sold her into a brothel. She was twelve years old that year.
She had already remembered the incident and had written down the grudge. She was rescued. The man who rescued her said that he was from His Highness the Fifth Prince. The man asked her to call him Uncle Ji. Not only did he save her, but he also helped her get rid of
The uncle who forced her mother to death.
Uncle Ji also said that the reason why His Highness the Fifth Highness was willing to save her and avenge her mother was because there was someone important to His Highness, her uncle from the Liang family, named Liang Zhongxing, who begged His Highness for mercy.
Only then did Uncle Ji take action.
She remembered in her heart that the Fifth Highness was her benefactor, and she would go through fire and water for the Fifth Highness, no matter what. Her uncle from the Liang family was also her benefactor, and she would find a way to repay him in the future.
Uncle Ji asked her to join the palace as a palace maid, saying that she wanted to repay His Highness the Fifth Prince's kindness, so she became a palace maid, and the Fifth Highness would need her in the future.
So she has been working carefully in the palace. The palace maids have the opportunity to get married once a year. Uncle Ji sometimes comes by himself or sometimes sends someone to remind her of the kindness of the Fifth Highness and give her some tasks.
She was very happy to be able to do things for her benefactor. Concubine De was also kind to her, but she remembered her mission. She entered the palace to help His Highness the Fifth.
Chu Jingxian was filial and would often collect some delicious and fun things to give to Concubine De in the palace. This was not a secret in the palace.
When that person asked someone to give her poison and then sent a message asking her to poison the food the next time Chu Jingxian brought food to Concubine De, and put the blame on Chu Jingxian, she was very hesitant.
However, she only hesitated for two nights before deciding to do it.
Her life was saved by His Highness the Fifth Highness, who also helped her avenge her mother. If she can't even handle this little thing, how can she deserve to call His Highness her benefactor? How can she be worthy of asking His Highness to plead for her?
Uncle Liang Zhongxing who took action?
Everything that happened later is also included in the confession.
When the emperor saw the confession, Jiang Yi also mentioned the possible loopholes in it, that is, the eldest palace maid was seventeen this year. When she was thirteen, Chu Xinyuan was sixteen, and that year he had just asked for orders to go to the battlefield.
p>
A prince who has no foundation in the palace and no one to rely on goes to the battlefield to prove himself. Would he save a completely unrelated person for a few words of pleading from an ordinary attendant next to him?
In addition, although the eldest maid regards the Fifth Highness as a benefactor and Liang Zhongxing as a benefactor, all this was said by "Uncle Ji". She has neither met Liang Zhongxing nor the Fifth Highness.
So this made the emperor's face become darker and darker.
If what the eldest lady said is true, was Chu Xinyuan already arranging his own power four years ago?
If Uncle Ji is lying, it means that this game has been set up for four years and is only now starting to close!
No matter which point, the emperor was furious.
The fact that Lao Qi was poisoned is even more obvious.
As Chu Xinyuan said, if he really wanted to poison Lao Qi, would he send his personal guards to do it himself? What is the difference between that and announcing to the world that he was the one who wanted to poison Lao Qi?
Jiang Yi has already led people to capture Uncle Ji, Liang Zhongxing and Yue Xi.
As long as they are caught and interrogated, the truth should be revealed.
But even if it weren't for Chu Xinyuan, the emperor would not be in a good mood.
Because he thought further.
If it weren't for Chu Xinyuan, then the man behind the scenes would make such a big deal and cover his two sons in it. Why would he do this? More importantly, who would do this?
That truth may be something he doesn't want to see!
But as Chu Xinyuan thought, because he was not the emperor's beloved son, although the emperor felt that he might not have done it, he still had no good impression of him and said coldly: "You are not stupid, you are very smart!
This approach! It’s also very smart. Just because everyone will think this way, it’s easy for you to clear your suspicions, isn’t it?”
Chu Xinyuan: "..."
He lowered his head and said bitterly: "Father, I don't know what the truth of this matter is, and I can't refute it. If my father doesn't believe me, my father will put him in a prison to wait for the truth."
Let’s release it when the truth comes out!”
The emperor snorted.
Concubine De has already said that she was not poisoned, but just had a bad stomach.
But the palace concubine is poisoned. This kind of thing cannot be tolerated. It must be investigated to the end. If not investigated openly, the palace ban must be cleared secretly.
And Lao Qi almost died of poisoning, this matter cannot be taken lightly, it must also be investigated strictly.
So, he paused and said: "Here comes someone!"
Jiang Yi, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, came in.
The emperor said: "Lock Prince Liang to the heavenly prison!"
Jiang Yi said: "Your Highness, please!"
Chu Xinyuan kowtowed, stood up, and followed Jiang Yi down.
At this time, his heart had sunk to the ground.
If this thing hits him on the head, then all his years of hard work will be a joke, and the commander of the Gyeonggi Guard will soon be replaced by someone else!
