Ling Ruo nodded and was speechless all night. After dawn the next day, she asked Yang Hai to continue to stare at Xu, and also asked the palace painter to paint Haitang's portrait so that she could inquire about the medicine shops and look for clues.
After these instructions, Ling Ruo just sat down to have breakfast. After just a few mouthfuls, he saw Si Xi walking in and called out, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, please go over there."
Ling Ruo saw that his face was not very good-looking, so she vaguely guessed, "Has Concubine Qian gone to see the Emperor?"
Si Xi raised her head and glanced at Ling Ruo, but she didn't hide anything and said: "As soon as the emperor came to court, Concubine Qian brought her sixth brother and cried for a while in front of the emperor, saying that the empress imprisoned her in Chengqian Palace last night and refused to leave.
He said to the Emperor that you were interrogating her like a prisoner. The Emperor was not very happy, so he asked his servants to ask the Emperor to come over and ask questions. When the Emperor sees the Emperor later, the Emperor must be careful when he replies."
"Thank you for the reminder, father-in-law." Ling Ruo took the face towel in Shuixiu's hand and wiped her lips, then went to the Yangxin Hall with Si Xi. As soon as she stepped into the inner hall, she saw Mrs. Liu holding her sixth brother in the chair.
While sobbing, Yinzhen sat in his chair with a heavy gaze, not even one of the folds on the desk had been reviewed.
After Ling Ruo bowed, Yinzhen pinched the bridge of his straight nose and said, "My concubine, I said that you trapped them in Chengqian Palace yesterday and were not allowed to leave. You also drugged the cakes to cause her abdominal pain, and you treated her as a prisoner."
During the general interrogation, they also said that you deliberately favored Yan Xue. Are these things true?"
Yinzhen secretly didn't believe that Ling Ruo would do this. Although he doted on Ling Ruo to the core, if Ling Ruo was a person who didn't know how to do things and didn't know the importance of things, he still wouldn't let Ling Ruo take charge of the harem. Since he gave him this power
, which means that he absolutely trusts Ling Ruo. It’s just that Mrs. Liu was crying and wanted to ask Ling Ruo for details. She probably refused to give up, so she let Si Xi go.
Ling Ruo said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Returning to the emperor, in order to find out the injury of the sixth elder brother last night, I did not let concubine Qian leave for a while, but she said that she was drugged in the pastry and treated as a prisoner.
, that is absolutely not the case. Concubine Qian is the mother-in-law of the sixth elder brother and also the younger sister of Chen Concubine. How could Chen Concubine interrogate her? I just want Qian Concubine to answer something clearly. To be honest, it is even more frank.
Nothing."
Mrs. Liu wiped away her tears and said angrily: "The imperial concubine blamed the concubine and Haitang for Hong Zhan's injury. Isn't it just being honest to let Yan Guiren stay out of the matter?"
"Putting it on you, what's going on?" Mrs. Liu had never mentioned this before, so Yinzhen was very surprised when he heard it.
Ling Ruo glanced at Mrs. Liu coldly, leaned forward and said, "Returning to the emperor, I found a pinhole behind the sixth elder brother, and Dr. Zhou found a trace amount of incense near the pinhole, plus the sixth elder brother
It was said that when he was pushed down, his back felt as if mosquitoes were staring at him, so I concluded that the sixth brother was
The coma was not caused by being pushed down, but by someone using a drug-coated needle to stun him. Because the amount was not large, Dr. Zhou did not diagnose it at the time. Your Majesty, forgive me for saying frankly, if it was really Yan Guiren who pushed him out to vent his anger.
Yes, just push it harder. Why do you need to use a needle? Brother Six is unconscious.
There is no benefit to her at all. Secondly, how did Mr. Yan know that he would meet Brother Six when he went to the Royal Garden, so he prepared the needle in advance? I am too stupid to answer these two questions, so I can only speculate that someone deliberately fainted
The purpose of Sixth Brother was to frame Yan Guiren. At that time, apart from Yan Guiren, there was only Hai
Tang was here, so I had to suspect that the matter was related to Haitang. Afterwards, I asked the Imperial Pharmacy and the Jingshi Room respectively. Although no one had taken the poison, Haitang had left the palace last month.
I stayed outside the palace for a whole day before returning. All things combined, my concubine is really a little suspicious of Haitang."
Mrs. Liu sobbed: "Your Majesty, please listen. With just a pinprick, the imperial concubine said that Haitang did this. She also asked someone to paint a portrait of Haitang. She went from house to house and asked. People who didn't know thought Haitang was the one who did it.
Gangster
Besides, the imperial concubine is suspicious of Haitang and is also suspicious of Chen Concubine, and feels that everything was done by Chen Concubine instigating Haitang. Hongzhan is Chen Concubine’s biological son, and Chen Concubine loves him and cares for him before it is too late, so how can she harm him."
At this time, Hongzhan also jumped down from Mrs. Liu's arms, took a few steps forward, and said timidly: "Huang Ama, E Niang will not harm my son. You believe E Niang."
Hearing Hong Zhan Shang's milky voice, Yinzhen's face softened, beckoning Hong Zhan to come to him, caressing his chubby little face and said: "Hong Zhan, tell Huang Ama, you were really
Do you feel like you were stabbed in the back?"
Hongzhan turned to look at Mrs. Liu, who looked slightly tense and said: "Hongzhan, don't be afraid, I will tell you Huang Ama truthfully."
"Yes." Hongzhan responded, and faced Yinzhen's eyes and said something that surprised Ling Ruo, "Huang Ama, I remembered wrongly. The person who was bitten by the mosquito was not his back, but his hand."
"On your hand?" Under Yinzhen's confused gaze, Hongzhan rolled up his sleeves hard, revealing his white and tender arms, but there was a red swelling on the upper end of his arm, which looked like it was bitten by a mosquito.
"My son was a little dizzy at the time, so I don't remember clearly. I didn't know until my arm hurt this morning." Hong Zhan's eyes were very pure, and neither Yinzhen nor Ling Ruo saw any trace of lying in his eyes.
Hongzhan was only two years old. If he lied, it would be impossible to hide it so that they wouldn't even notice it. There was only one possibility, that is, he was telling the truth.
Yinzhen thought for a while and said: "Tell Huang Ama, where did the pinholes on your back come from?"
Hongzhan said blankly: "I don't know."
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen touched his head and said, "Okay, Huang Ama knows, go to your mother-in-law's place."
When Hong Zhan was talking, Ling Ruo had been paying attention to Mrs. Liu's expression, and found that she had been very nervous when Hong Zhan was talking, and she quietly breathed a sigh of relief until he finished speaking.
There is no need to ask, even if Hongzhan's words are not false, there must be something weird. No wonder she dared to run to Yinzhen and cry. It turned out that she had such a plan. It was really hard for her to come up with such a solution after staying up all night.
Mrs. Liu took the opportunity and said: "Your Majesty, Hongzhan is only two years old. It is impossible for him to lie and he will not lie. From this we can see that no one stabbed him in the back and there was no drug. As for why Dr. Zhou checked him
I don’t know that the drug was used, but before I came to see the emperor, I specifically informed several imperial doctors, and they all carefully inspected the pinholes on Hongzhan’s back and found no trace of the drug.”
Yinzhen raised his eyebrows and said noncommittally: "What do you mean, Yi Runyu, by saying that the imperial concubine and Dr. Zhou teamed up to pin the crime of Hongzhan's harm on you?"
