Chapter seven hundred and eighty first pleading guilty
Doctor Liu drank tea absentmindedly. When he saw Ling Ruo coming in, he quickly stood up and saluted, "I have seen Concubine Xi. May you be blessed."
"Blessings?" Ling Ruo didn't look at him and sat down in the chair. "If I don't die, I've already received great blessings from Doctor Liu. How can I dare to say "blessings".
Doctor Liu could hear the coldness in her words, and he quickly knelt down and said, "This humble minister deserves to die, please show mercy to me."
"Don't dare!" Ling Ruo glanced at the increasingly dusk sky outside and said in a dark voice: "Now that you have climbed the high branch of the Queen, how can you put me in your eyes? But..." She lowered her head and said darkly.
He stared at Imperial Physician Liu with pity, "It would be too naive for Imperial Physician Liu to think that he can sleep peacefully in this way."
"You deserve to die!" Doctor Liu knelt on the ground and did not dare to get up, with a look of fear on his face.
"If you want to apologize, please go back to Kunning Palace. What are you asking me for? If people see it, you will think that I am treating you harshly. Someone, please send Dr. Liu out."
Seeing her say this, the look of fear on Imperial Doctor Liu's face became more intense, and he refused to leave despite any words. Shuixiu drove for a long time, but didn't see him move a step, so she couldn't help but said mockingly: "Emperor Liu, you are also a deputy after all.
Dean, why are you hanging around like a piece of brown candy? Do you still want to have a meal here? That's my apology, I haven't prepared your share."
"Your Majesty, it is clear to me that Wei Chen really has his own reasons. Please give Wei Chen a chance to explain." Doctor Liu knew very well that if he walked through the gate of Chengqian Palace today, then Concubine Xi would definitely kill her.
His relationship with her told the Queen that when the time comes, given the Queen's ruthlessness, he will never end well.
It took a lot of effort for me to have everything I have now, and I absolutely cannot lose it, let alone this life, so no matter what, I must explain it clearly.
Ling Ruo chuckled lightly and said nothing until the curtain completely enveloped the entire sky, making the Forbidden City dim and unclear in the twilight. But soon, lights came on one after another. This was the palace people holding lamps.
, making the Forbidden City as bright as ever even at night.
Suddenly, the sound of "dang...dang..." was heard. Such a sound did not ring often in the palace, but once it rang, it meant that someone was dying. Ling Ruo stood up and walked slowly.
When he got to the door, he held on to the doorframe and showed a bit of sadness. Hong Sheng said, "It's such a pity."
After Cheng Qian Palace also held the lamp, Ling Ruo turned around and looked at Imperial Physician Liu who had been kneeling on the ground by the light of the lamp, "I will give you a chance, but if you cannot satisfy me, you will
It should be clear what the consequences will be.”
Doctor Liu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. As long as Concubine Xi is willing to listen to his explanation, everything will turn around. He quickly kowtowed and said, "Thank you, empress."
Just as he was about to get up, Shui Xiu suddenly said: "Mr. Liu, the master only allows you to reply, but does not allow you to get up unless you are ready to leave here."
Doctor Liu quickly knelt down again, collected his thoughts and said, "I don't dare to hide it from my mother-in-law. The person who killed the third elder brother was not Doctor Jin, but... Wei Chen."
Ling Ruo raised her eyebrows and said with some surprise: "Oh? I'm willing to tell the truth. I thought you were going to keep hiding this from me."
"How dare you, a humble minister." Before Doctor Liu could finish his words, Ling Ruo suddenly got angry and said sternly: "What have I told you? You must truthfully report to me everything the queen asks you to do, but you
Well, the matter of the third elder brother was not exposed at all. It was so hard to hide it from me, and it almost killed me and the fourth elder brother. Liu Hua, if I want to pursue the case, you will die.
A thousand times and ten thousand times are not enough!"
"Weichen knows." Doctor Liu said with a bitter look on his face: "Weichen has always wanted to find an opportunity to explain it to the empress, but the queen is very careful. Don't think that Weichen is very free in the Taiyuan Hospital. In fact, in the Taiyuan Hospital
With the Queen's eyes, she knows exactly where Wei Chen has gone. Moreover, the set of silver needles... were just given to Wei Chen a few days ago. At that time, the Queen clearly warned Wei Chen that he would go to any palace or courtyard.
I'm not allowed to go because I'm afraid the ministers will tell me about this."
Ling Ruo asked coldly: "So you don't know the poison on the bamboo leaves?"
Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Liu quickly said: "I dare to swear to God that I never knew anything about it, let alone that the queen has been secretly poisoning for so long."
Ling Ruo frowned and said nothing, but Shui Xiu said from the side: "Master, is it possible that besides Imperial Physician Liu, the Queen has other physicians to help her in the palace?"
Ling Ruo shook his head slowly, "I'm afraid not. Imperial Physician Xu once said that the Red Lady is a poison from the Western Regions. The Imperial Physician in the Palace may not be able to come into contact with her. She should have come from outside the palace."
"Empress Shengming." Doctor Liu didn't know what he thought of, and said quickly: "Wei Chen overheard what the Queen's confidant, Eunuch Fu, said to Aunt Jade, and it seemed that she was asking someone to bring something in from outside the palace, so Wei Chen
I suspect that there is someone outside the palace to help. Also, the set of silver needles is definitely not an ordinary handiwork."
Although the Queen's family is low-key in the court and seems to be inferior to the previous Nian family in every aspect, in terms of background, the Nian family may not be as good as the Nala family. If you want to get the Red Lady's poison and the set of silver needles, it is not impossible.
It's possible. Moreover, relying on people outside the palace is naturally safer and more reliable than those in the palace, and will not let the truth out easily. To say the least, even if the time comes, it will be much easier to kill people and silence them.
Ling Ruo did not say these words, but stared at Liu Hua and said: "You continue to speak."
"Yes." Liu Hua swallowed and said, "After the Queen gave the silver needle to Wei Chen, she told Wei Chen her plan. It was at that time that Wei Chen knew that she had poisoned the bamboo leaves, and
Put the blame on the fourth elder brother. Originally, according to the plan, three people in the past few days
There is no doubt that the elder brother will die, but as a precaution, the Queen gave the silver needle containing the red lady's poison to Wei Chen. In order to prevent the plan from changing, Wei Chen would use this set of silver needles to kill the third elder brother.
He died. As for Imperial Physician Jin, he was just the unlucky scapegoat."
Liu Hua said a lot in one breath, and also solved the doubts in Ling Ruo's mind. Just now when Guarjia said that Nala deliberately let Liu and Jin stay, she suddenly thought of the person who really poisoned him.
It should be Dr. Liu,
After all, he was the one who won over the Nala family. So she did not go to the Shenxing Department, but returned to Chengqian Palace. Even if Liu Taiyi didn't come, she would summon him and ask him, "How did you blame this matter?"
Did it come to Imperial Physician Jin?"
Doctor Liu said in a low mood: "When the Queen ordered Wei Chen and Doctor Jin to stay in Yikun Palace to take care of the third elder brother, Wei Chen knew that she had asked Wei Chen to take action. And later, the third elder brother even more
Said he wanted to expose it
Murderer and the like. So Wei Chen took the opportunity to say that the presence of Third Elder Brother would affect the spread of sexual poison, and it was necessary to use silver needles to seal the eight extraordinary meridians to control the spread of poison. After that, he deliberately said that he did not bring a silver needle and borrowed Jin
The imperial doctor's silver needle
, In fact, during the acupuncture, Weichen exchanged his silver needles with his own. Imperial Physician Jin thought that the silver needles pierced into Third Brother's body were his, but in fact they were the ones Weichen had prepared in advance. Waiting for
After applying the needle, return it to him, silver
The difference between the needles is so subtle that you can't tell it if you don't look carefully. Later, Weichen went to get the medicine, and deliberately delayed it for a while outside, waiting until he felt that the poison was almost gone before going in, and the queen would know what happened next.
