The Empress Dowager glanced at Binglu who was kneeling on the ground. Let's spare her master for now. If something happens to her, a maid, she will not be able to escape death. It's just a matter of time.
"Does the Queen know this thing?" The Queen Mother motioned to the eunuch behind her to bring it to Ye Luo and Mo Yichen and kindly explained to them, "This is the veil that the assassin accidentally left behind when he escaped."
South China Sea Ice Silk Ye Luo looked at what the eunuch was holding and felt even more dizzy. This was the South China Sea Ice Silk that was just presented as tribute a few days ago. Because this type of silkworm is rare and unsuitable for survival, this year only two batches were woven and sent to the palace. Got it
Although this cloth is as thin as a cicada's wings, it is warm in winter and cool in summer. Some of them were given to Mo Yichen and the other to the Queen Mother [
She was irritated these days, so she didn't care and let Bingyue put it away at will. She didn't expect that someone would take advantage of the loophole. She was negligent and was tricked under her nose.
"The Queen Mother found this in the Queen Mother's palace." A guard was carrying a wooden lacquer tray with two things on it, one was a bloody dagger, and the other was a white cloth with half of it burnt black and stained with blood.
Others don't know what the black thing is, but she knows that the half is probably a masterpiece of corpse powder. It seems that Bingyue, the girl, saw that there was no time and wanted to use corpse powder to directly destroy the piece made of ice silk. The clothes ended up being a step too late and only half of them were ruined.
Looking at the expressions of these people and the blood stains on their clothes, it is not difficult to guess that "he" was wearing these clothes when he assassinated Mo Ziyan.
"Show the dagger to Dr. Liu," the Queen Mother said to the guards with a faint glance.
Doctor Liu wore a white cotton glove on his hand. He took the dagger and carefully turned it over and over. After looking at it a few times, he raised his head to look at the emperor and then timidly looked at the queen mother, who knelt on the ground with a bang.
There are rumors these days that the Empress Dowager and the Empress do not get along. Seeing the situation today, the Empress Dowager is going to target the Empress specifically.
But the person in this palace didn't know that the Queen was the Emperor's pet peeve, and these two masters were his food, clothing, and parents. He, a little imperial doctor, couldn't afford to offend either of them.
Why was he the unlucky one today? He was lying on the table and taking a nap in the middle of the night. He was taken directly to Lanyue Palace by two guards. He was frightened and treated the wound of Concubine Hua. Then he trotted to Fengming Palace after the Empress Dowager gave her order. His old bones will have to be left in this palace sooner or later.
"If Dr. Liu lets the Ai family know that you have told lies, you will not risk your life." The Queen Mother glanced at Mo Yichen and looked down at Dr. Liu who was kneeling on the ground.
"According to the shape of this dagger, it is indeed the dagger that stabbed Concubine Hua." Doctor Liu closed his heart and said quickly. Anyway, a horizontal knife will kill you, and a vertical knife will kill you.
"What if it was the dagger used to assassinate Concubine Hua? I have never seen this dagger before." Even the murder weapon escaped from her Fengming Palace. What a thorough plan.
"Queen, the evidence is solid. How dare you quibble about this dagger? You said you don't know this thing?" The Queen Mother pointed at the half-burned ice silk. "I'm afraid you are the only one in the palace besides Aijia who has this ice silk." And the Aijia's batch of cloth is still in the warehouse, would you like Aijia to take it out and show it to you?"
Ye Luo was afraid that the old man's asthma would relapse because of his anger, so he knelt on the ground and whispered, "Piao Ling doesn't dare to doubt that Grandmother Piao Ling has never hurt Concubine Hua."
"What's going on with this cloth?" The Queen Mother felt much better when she saw that Ye Luo had subdued. Then she noticed again that only half of the clothes made of ice silk were left.
"When the Empress Dowager returned to her humble position, she saw this palace maid holding a bottle in her hand. She sprinkled the potion in the bottle on her clothes. Wherever the medicine dripped, the fabric quickly turned into ashes. The humble minister suspected that this was the corpse powder used in the world. "
"Corpse powder" The Queen Mother instinctively took a step back when she heard these words, pointed at Ye Luo and said angrily, "Ye Piaoling, what else can you say? Do you think you can just let your personal maid destroy this dress?" I can escape the fact that you killed someone. It’s a pity that your maid was a step too late.”
"Someone will throw the queen into the cold palace and pull these two maids out and kill them with a cane." If he hadn't seen that she was pregnant with a royal heir, he would never have let this vicious woman go so easily.
"Death with a stick!" Ye Luo had a trace of panic in his eyes, stood up and sneered, "Let me see who dares to touch these two people" [
The guard who caught Bingyue and Binglu for a moment was frightened by Ye Luo's sharp voice and let go uncontrollably.
Although the rumors about the third young lady of the Ye family are hard to hear, Ye has always appeared as a gentle and beautiful woman since she fell into the palace. Over time, everyone in the palace knew that the queen was famous for her good temper and she never even shouted loudly. But The cold and severe look now is really chilling.
Inadvertently, a person flashed in their minds. Only the emperor could have such a cold expression, which would make people feel cold all over.
"The matter of the Imperial Grandmother remains to be investigated. I will definitely give an explanation to the Imperial Grandmother. Besides, the Queen is pregnant now and the conditions in the cold palace are probably not suitable for the Queen to live in." Mo Yichen winked at Ji Ting, "Ji Ting is still stuck here. Why did the Empress Dowager stay up all night and why didn’t you send the Empress Dowager back to the palace on your behalf?"
"Wait a minute, the Ai family will insist on sending the queen to the cold palace today." This is her favorite grandson. Now that his wings are hard, he dares to openly oppose her, a grandmother.
"Then please ask the Imperial Grandmother to let the guards step over the body of the minister." Mo Yichen glanced sharply at the surroundings and looked at the Empress Dowager unwaveringly.
He is here today to tell those people that no matter who they are, they cannot touch the Queen...
Otherwise, if he finds out who did it, he must first consider whether he dares to bear the consequences.
"You, you..." The Empress Dowager pointed at Mo Yichen with one hand and covered her heart with one hand, breathing heavily.
Mo Yichen was startled and hurriedly wanted to step forward to help the old lady. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step forward, his heart was so clogged that he coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Chen..." Ye Luo hurriedly supported Mo Yichen and looked at him worriedly.
He took Mo Yichen's hand and felt his pulse for a while before he felt relieved. The pulse condition was just a matter of two days of intensive conditioning, but he still felt that something was wrong in his heart.
