Yinzhen's face turned cold, and he said to Su Peisheng in a cold voice: "Immediately go check the origin of this bamboo jar. I want to know who is so heartless and crazy that he dares to harm my son."
Su Peisheng was about to accept the order when Nian said solemnly, "No need, I know where this bamboo jar came from and who poisoned it."
"Su Yan? How do you know?" Yinzhen looked at Nian in surprise. He was obviously at a loss just now, how could he know everything in a short time.
Facing Yinzhen's puzzled gaze, Nian said word by word: "It's Hongli. That bamboo jar belongs to Hongli."
When Yinzhen heard this, his first feeling was that Nian was joking. How could someone as young as Hongli poison Hongsheng? Besides, he knew very well that Hongli's temperament was by no means a vicious person.
.
Wen Ruqing was equally astonished. After a moment of recovery, she said even more urgently: "Mother, are you mistaken? How could the fourth elder brother do such a cruel thing when he is gentle and courteous? Besides, the third elder brother is his relative."
Brother, this...this is absolutely impossible!"
Nian suddenly stared at her, with such a look of extreme hatred that Wen Ruqing unconsciously took a step back and hid behind Yinzhen. Nian's cold voice came to her ears, "You mean to say that I have framed a false accusation?"
Hongli?"
"I don't dare," Wen Ruqing said in a low voice, not daring to look at her.
"Your Majesty, everything I said is true. The poison was caused by Hongli. He wants to kill Hong Sheng and I want to kill this concubine!" After saying this, Nian's emotions were a little out of control, and her original charming appearance even changed.
It looks ferocious and terrifying, like a Rakshasa evil spirit from hell, and looks at it with terror.
"My concubine, why are you so sure?" Yinzhen's eyes flickered uncertainly. He didn't believe that Hongli would do such a heartbreaking thing, but Nian's expression didn't look like he was being fake.
"Because I personally saw Hongli holding these bamboo jars and hanging many of them in the bamboo forest. At that time, I asked him what he was doing with so many bamboo jars, so I will never admit his mistake!" Nian said categorically.
With.
Yinzhen thought for a moment and said, "Su Peisheng, go to the bamboo forest and see if everything is as the imperial concubine said. Also, ask the palace servants in charge of cleaning up the bamboo forest who frequent the bamboo forest."
Nian said excitedly: "What do you mean, Your Majesty? Do you not believe what I say? Or do you think Hongli will not poison me?"
Nian's attitude made Yinzhen unhappy, but she was not too harsh. After all, Hongsheng's life or death was uncertain, so it was inevitable for her to be a little excited.
"The noble concubine has misunderstood. I just don't want to be too hasty. I will wait until everything is investigated." After saying this, Yinzhen looked at Dr. Liu who was still examining the bamboo jar and said: "How, can you tell what kind of poison it is?
"
Doctor Liu smiled bitterly and said: "When I return to the emperor, the dew in this jar has almost been used up. There are only a few drops left, so I can't find anything at all. But when Eunuch Su went there, if he saw some dew there,
You might as well bring a jar back, it might be useful."
Su Peisheng glanced at Yinzhen and then said to Imperial Physician Liu: "We have written it down."
Not long after Su Peisheng left, Nala arrived. She said with worry on her face: "I heard that something happened to the third elder brother, and the palace servants couldn't explain the specific situation, so I came over to see, Your Majesty, how is the third elder brother? Is it important?
?”
Yinzhen said with a gloomy expression: "The Imperial Physician Qi is inside, Hong Sheng has been poisoned, and the current situation is very bad."
"How could such a thing happen?!" Nala covered her mouth and shouted softly, with a look of disbelief on her face. After she came to her senses, she said, "I, my concubine, go in and see Third Brother."
"Don't go in." Yinzhen stopped her and said, "Emperor Qi just discovered that Hong Sheng's tears are highly toxic, and he is afraid that they will infect others."
Seeing what he said, Nala had to stop and took Nian's hand to comfort him: "Sister, don't worry too much. I, Guan Hongsheng, have the appearance of a person who lives a long life. He will be fine."
.”
"Thank you for your concern," Nian replied coldly and took his hand out of Nala's palm, regardless of whether Nala would be embarrassed by this.
Perhaps because Nala was used to Nian's rude behavior, she did not show any displeasure. Instead, she kept comforting Nian and asked with concern: "Sister, do you know who poisoned Hong Sheng?
"
"Eunuch Su has already gone to investigate. I believe we will find out soon!" Nian's eyes were cold, making people subconsciously want to avoid him.
Seeing what she said, Nala didn't want to ask any more questions. He waited with them for Su Peisheng's answer. After about a stick of incense, Su Peisheng ran in quickly, holding in his hand the same incense stick as before from Hong Sheng.
The identical bamboo jar found in the house.
He didn't have time to catch his breath due to the rush, and quickly came to Yinzhen and called Qianer and said: "Your Majesty, I have found out that there are indeed many bamboo jars tied to the bamboo forest at the corner of the imperial garden.
There was still a little bit of dew in some of them. In addition, the servant asked the palace servant
, they said it was true..." Su Peisheng swallowed hard and said under the gaze of everyone: "I did see Brother Si hanging the bamboo jar there. And...when the slave came in just now, he saw Brother Si and Cheng Qian.
Aunt Shuixiu from the palace is outside asking about the situation of the third elder brother."
Hearing this, Nian sneered repeatedly and said to Yinzhen: "Your Majesty, the matter is very clear now. The poison on Hong Sheng was caused by Hong Li. He was afraid that Hong Sheng would not die, and even came here to inquire.
At a young age,
It's so cruel and terrifying." Seeing that Yinzhen didn't speak, her voice became a little sharper, "Your Majesty, at this time, are you still prepared to protect Hongli? It's true that Hongli is your son, but
The same goes for Hong Sheng."
Yinzhen was already upset, and he was even more unhappy when Nian asked her repeatedly. He looked at her deeply and said, "Your concubine, I have never said that."
Wen Ruqing poked out half of her face from behind Yinzhen, as if she was a little scared, but she couldn't help but said: "Mother, the emperor has always been fair and strict. If it is really what the fourth elder brother did, the emperor will never be frank, you can rest assured!
"
Nian was already holding back a lot of resentment, but when he saw her talking, he immediately let out his anger, "Shut up, I'm talking to the Emperor, why are you talking!"
"Your concubine." Yinzhen called with a warning. Today, Nian's words and deeds have exceeded his limit several times, but he also knows that it is impossible not to figure out Hong Sheng's matter today, "Su Peisheng, go
Bring Fourth Brother in."
"Hey!" Not long after Su Peisheng retreated, he brought in an anxious Hongli. As soon as Hongli saw Yinzhen, he hurried over and said, "Huang Ama, how is the third brother? Is he serious?"
Seeing Hongli, Nian's eyes were filled with hatred, and she didn't know where she got the strength. She dragged Hongli over and slapped him on the face. She still didn't understand her hatred, and slapped him again and again.
Hongli was beaten so hard that he didn't understand what happened.
