Xia Qing said eagerly: "Your Majesty, she is the best at acting. If not for this, the Queen would not have been deceived by her for so many years. You must not be deceived by her."
Wei Jingxuan said in pain: "Xia Qing, although I have some issues with you, it has been so long, why are you still unwilling to let me go? Do you have to die for you to be satisfied?"
Ji You begged on the side: "Your Majesty, the Queen's business is really none of the slaves and aunt's business. The slaves have never harmed the master."
Xianyue lowered her eyes and said: "You two have always been the only ones who have come into contact with the Queen. If it weren't for you, who else could have harmed the Queen."
Ji You said with a mournful face: "Master committed suicide by drowning, what do you have to say to make me believe it?" After that, he looked at Song Zihua with some resentment, "Mr. Song, you really got me killed this time!
"
Xianyue said coldly: "If you haven't done anything evil, no one can harm you. It's just that you two are too bold to harm the Queen. If the Queen hadn't appeared, you would still be kept in the dark until now."
middle."
A trace of anger flashed across Hongli's eyes, and he stared at Wei Jingxuan at his feet. While increasing the strength under his feet, he said in a cold voice: "You are so brave, you dare to lie to me!"
Wei Jingxuan felt as if her chest was about to be trampled to pieces, and even breathing became difficult. She tried to raise her head and said with difficulty with tears: "I really... really don't have it!"
Staring at the tear-stained face, Hongli showed no pity at all and said expressionlessly: "Someone, take her and Ji You to the Criminal Punishment Department and torture them until they are willing to tell the truth. Remember, tens of millions of dollars
Don’t let them die!”
"My slave is wronged!" Ji You shouted loudly, his whole body was shaking, and he kept saying that he was wronged. Unfortunately, no one believed him. When he saw Xiao Wu bringing two eunuchs to arrest him, Ji You
Suddenly he got up from the ground and pulled out a silver hairpin from Xia Qing's bun nearest to him.
Before anyone could react, he had already rushed to the Zi coffin and shoved it hard into Mingyu's throat. Seeing this scene, Hongli's face changed drastically. He immediately let go of Wei Jingxuan, ran over quickly, and kicked her.
Ji You kicked him to the ground and shouted: "You are so brave, you dare to hurt the queen's body. I... want you to suffer the most extreme punishment in the world and die!"
Ji You allowed Xiao Wu and others to catch him and said: "Your Majesty, look at the place where the slave stabbed you and see why the Queen died!"
His words made everyone stunned. Hongli subconsciously looked at Mingyu's wound. Mingyu had already died and his blood was coagulated, so there would be no blood flowing out. But at this moment, there was
Another liquid flowed out. Although the color had become turbid, Hongli knew that it was water... it was water...
After him, Xianyue also saw this scene, and her expression changed drastically. The queen clearly didn't commit suicide by drowning, so why was there water flowing out of her throat? Why... why was this happening?
Could it be that they guessed wrong? No, they guessed wrong. Regardless of the queen's temperament or the situation at the time, she would not commit suicide, but...
Xia Qing staggered back and said in a trembling voice: "How...how could this happen? How could there be water in her throat..."
While they were stunned, Wei Jingxuan struggled to get up and cried: "Your Majesty, do you believe it now? The slaves and Ji You were unjustly accused. Someone deliberately wanted to harm the slaves. I'm afraid it was the Imperial Physician of Lian Song.
He is also colluding with them."
Song Zihua came back to his senses and was about to speak when two angry eyes fell on him, "Song Zihua, what on earth is going on?"
Song Zihua hurriedly knelt down and said in panic: "Wei Chen... Wei Chen doesn't know what's going on!"
Wei Jingxuan crawled to the Zi Palace and said sadly: "Master, I miss you so much. If you were still alive, you would never let others bully the slaves like this." Hearing this, Ji You also broke away from Xiao Wu and others and climbed up.
He went to Wei Jingxuan and cried with her.
Hongli gritted his teeth and said: "Song Zihua, you once pledged your life to say that there was no water in the queen's throat. You have also seen the result. It's not that the queen died by drowning, but that your so-called method was completely ineffective. You are so brave.
How dare you deceive me!"
"A humble minister must never dare to deceive the emperor. This is indeed recorded in the medical books. I never thought that it would be ineffective, thus misinterpreting the cause of the queen's death. Please forgive me." Now that the lie has been told, it cannot be
Take it back, otherwise it will only be worse.
Wei Jingxuan turned around and said excitedly: "Is it really a wrong interpretation? Dare you ask Imperial Physician Song, which medical book are you talking about?"
Song Zihua's eyes flickered and he said: "It's been so many years, I...can't remember it anymore."
"No." Wei Jingxuan pointed at him and said loudly: "It's not that you can't remember, it's that there is no such medical book at all. You are lying to the emperor, you are a criminal and deceiving the emperor!"
Hongli nodded slowly and said: "Yes, Song Zihua is a criminal who deceives the emperor and should be punished for his crime!"
The situation was reversed overnight. Both Song Zihua and Xia Qing became in danger. Seeing Hongli's murderous intention, Xianyue said quickly: "Please, Your Majesty, please suspend the thunderous anger. I believe it.
There's a misunderstanding about this matter, so let's wait
Let's discuss the crime after we find out." Seeing that Hongli was unmoved, she added: "In addition, since the cause of the Queen's death has been found out and the water in her throat has been removed, the coffin should be closed immediately to avoid
If she is disturbed again, she will embark on the road to death as soon as possible."
This sentence finally temporarily stopped Hongli's murderous intention, and he slowly nodded and said: "That's right, don't disturb the queen again, close the coffin!"
After listening to Hongli's words, Sixi quickly led people to cover the heavy coffin and nail the coffin nails again. After everything was restored, Hongli walked to the Yangxin Hall with different hopes.
My thoughts go with him.
Wei Jingxuan held Ji You's hand and followed behind. After arriving at Xia Qing's side, she showed a cold smile and whispered: "Why, do you really want my life?"
Xia Qing gritted her silver teeth and said, "Don't be complacent, I won't let you escape like this."
Wei Jingxuan chuckled: "As a sister, let me remind you, at this moment, you should quickly think about how to protect yourself, Imperial Concubine...I am afraid it will be difficult to protect you, not only you, but also Song Zihua, you will all die;
This is the price you pay for harming me."
Ji You said from the side: "Auntie, is this just like stealing the chicken but losing the rice?"
Wei Jingxuan chuckled and said: "Others are just losing a handful of rice, but they are losing their own lives. Thinking about it, it's really pitiful!"
Ji You echoed: "My aunt is merciful, but let me tell you, this is their own sin, and they are not worthy of pity at all."
