After Princess Lin Yang finished speaking, she left silently. Sheng Shaoqing looked at the back of the princess as she dropped the rope, and thought to herself that Princess Lin Yang looked ordinary on the surface, but in fact she was not simple at all.
[How can you think that such a person is simple when she is favored by the eldest princess of Hengyang and the late emperor? 】
It took the system a long time to remember and add, [However, it is indeed a bit of a love affair.]
Sheng Shaoqing:
Cui Yun knew from the beginning that the queen mother asked her to go out to refill the water not to cool the tea, but to leave space for her and the princess to talk alone. Therefore, after seeing Princess Lin Yang leave, Cui Yun returned to the palace knowingly.
After failing to find the Queen Mother in the main hall where the princess was received, Cui Yun thought for a moment and turned around and entered the back hall. Sure enough, he found the Queen Mother on the imperial concubine's couch, taking a nap with her eyes closed.
Cui Yun could only bite the bullet and interrupt the Queen Mother's recuperation, "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has revived Zhang Qing, but he is still in a coma. I'm afraid I won't be able to ask anything recently."
Sheng Shaoqing did not open his eyes, but nodded and said, "There was such a commotion today, and his guilt has been proven, so what else do you need to ask?"
Cui Yun said worriedly, "Weichen is worried about this thing."
Sheng Shaoqing could only open his eyes and follow her line of sight. The exquisitely crafted box was still lying on the ground and no one dared to touch it, while someone had already cleaned up the powder.
"Are you worried about the person behind him?"
Cui Yun nodded. She was worried that the person who sent the medicine had bad intentions and took the opportunity to murder the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother's food and drink were all taken care of by a dedicated person, and they could only be sent to Yongguang Palace after being inspected by several people, but if the Queen Mother was in this palace,
If something goes wrong, it's really hard to prevent.
The more Cui Yun thought about it, the more scared he became, and his hands began to shake unconsciously.
"Then who do you think it could be?"
Sheng Shaoqing yawned and closed her eyes. She was so tired today that her mind could hardly move.
Cui Yun calmed down and said, "According to Wei Chen's investigation, many of the people who are good friends with Zhang Qing have close personal relationships with people from the Wei family, so it could be that."
Cui Yun reasonably suspected that Wei Zhen collected such a recipe just to make the Queen Mother addicted to it, so that he could take the opportunity to control the government.
What His Majesty said today confirmed her suspicion.
[Please ask the host to judge whether Wei Zhen did this? 】
[If the answer is correct, there will be additional rewards on top of the basic points.]
Well, for the sake of the extra reward, Sheng Shaoqing reluctantly started his brain, which was almost turning into a ball of mush, and started thinking.
Based on the analysis of various theories taught to her by the system, when a person does something, he always chooses the answer that is most beneficial to him after weighing the pros and cons.
Combined with different people's behavior styles, conduct and IQ, we can deduce who did it.
Wei Zhen likes to play dirty tricks, so giving him cold food powder seems like something he can do.
The meaningful words he said in Yuan Che's ears today only increased Wei Zhen's suspicion.
And once he becomes addicted, Wei Zhen will definitely be the biggest beneficiary of this matter, because from the current point of view, only he and Yunzhi are rebelling against him. After his fall, it will be easy for him to deal with Yunzhi.
"I think it's him." Sheng Shaoqing replied confidently. Anyway, whether it is yes or no, there is always a 50% accuracy rate.
[Friendly reminder, don’t be so arbitrary.]
What kind of clue is this? It's better to just tell her that it's not.
"Not him? Who else could it be?"
[I’ll give you another reminder, “one bite per person”]
"One bite per person?"
【Yes, "one bite per person". 】
………………
What kind of reminder is this? One bite at a time.
wrong!
One person has a mouth, and when they are grouped together, there is only one person in the mouth. Isn’t that a prisoner?
Who is the prisoner?
Who did she keep as prisoner?
The first prisoner has been offline, and Wang Shanggong does not have the ability, so, "Is it Mrs. Li?!"
【No, think again.】
"It's Li Lingjiang!" Sheng Shaoqing was shocked for a moment, "How could it be him?!"
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem unreasonable.
Although Mrs. Li was imprisoned in secret, the news was leaked from Zhang Qing. Li Lingjiang found out that his sister was imprisoned and thought that instead of just waiting for death, he might as well take the risk and maybe carve out a bloody road to transport things out of the north.
Liang, there was no stolen goods, and Sheng Shaoqing couldn't do anything to him for the time being.
On the one hand, he tried to lure the tiger away from the mountain and transport the people and the stolen goods separately, so that he might get away with it. On the other hand, he asked Zhang Qing to offer medicine to him. If he fell into the trap, no one would be able to stop them from now on.
Unfortunately, Sheng Shaoqing had his own buffs and saw through his scheme and found the stolen goods from the county governor's house. When his first evil plan failed, he launched an emergency plan to deal with Sheng Shaoqing from the source.
This Li Lingjiang is really a talent.
"But does Wei Zhen really have nothing to do with this?"
Maybe that bullshit immortal master was sent by Wei Zhen to Li Lingjiang.
【Well, you need a history lesson today.】
Sheng Shaoqing: Ah???
Why go to class again?
"When Li Lingjiang proposed to conquer Nanjing, the first person in the court to object was Wei Zhen."
Sheng Shaoqing:...Okay, she should take a history class.
So who would know that these two are rivals?
Seeing that the Queen Mother had closed her eyes and remained silent again, Cui Yun had habitually covered Sheng Shaoqing with a blanket. Unexpectedly, Sheng Shaoqing suddenly said, "It's not him."
Cui Yun was also used to the Queen Mother suddenly speaking, so she could only continue what the Queen Mother said, "What does the Queen Mother mean?"
"Although Wei Zhen is highly suspicious, the Ai family doesn't think it's him."
Sheng Shaoqing himself felt that this was outrageous, but the fact was that Wei Zhen had nothing to do with this matter, and Li Lingjiang was the culprit. All the inferences he just made were arbitrary.
However, one code leads to another, if he wants to teach Yuan Che a bad lesson, he must settle the score with him!
Seeing that the Queen Mother was so sure, Cui Yun didn't know what to say. However, when the Queen Mother asked about Mrs. Li's current situation, she had to reply, "Mrs. Li and Wang Shanggong are both in Yeting Prison now, and I haven't left since I returned to the palace."
I have seen it, but I think Shen Si Zheng will not treat them badly."
Well, now that the things have been recovered, these two people are of little use. It would be a waste of her money to keep them in Yeting Prison for good food and drink. Sheng Shaoqing pondered for a long time and said, "Mrs. Li stole the palace's finances privately, and she should be punished."
He was punished because she had been in the palace for many years and had served the late emperor with meritorious service. She was demoted as a talented person and moved to Yilan Courtyard. Wang Shanggong was guilty of meritorious service and could avoid the death penalty, but could not escape the crime of living.
Use again."
Cui Yun was confused and said, "Yilan Courtyard is the best-located courtyard in the West Palace. It is only a few steps away from our Yongguang Hall. Why did you put her there?"
Sheng Shaoqing smiled and said, "She, the Ai family has her own uses."
Cui Yun didn't say anything, but Forsythia who came in to make Sheng Shaoqing's bed spoke up, "I heard that Mrs. Li seemed to be a different person in prison recently. She just sat there in a daze without saying a word all day long, as silent as
It's like losing your voice, Queen Mother, you have to be careful."
Sheng Shaoqing asked doubtfully, "What's so careful about this?"
Forsythia whispered, "When I was young, I saw someone in the village lose their mind and go crazy. This was the case before. After being stimulated, my temperament changed drastically. First I was in a daze, and then I went crazy!"
Cui Yun scolded her again, "Stop talking nonsense in front of the Queen Mother!"
Sheng Shaoqing raised his hand to stop Cui Yun, and then asked Forsythia, "Have you heard of any changes in Mrs. Li?"
Forsythia thought for a moment, "There's nothing else. Ever since you finished interrogating Mrs. Li that day, she seemed to have gradually become silent. My maid also accidentally heard someone talking and didn't pay attention to inquire. If the Queen Mother cares,
, maid, go and ask now."
Sheng Shaoqing waved his hand, "That's all, the Ai family is just curious for a moment, but when she goes to Yilan Hospital, we'd better find an imperial doctor to take a look at her."
Forsythia responded, tidied up the bed, helped Sheng Shaoqing go to bed, and then followed Cui Yun out.
"Ms. Cui, do you feel that the Queen Mother is a little different?" After walking far outside the palace, Forsythia quietly asked Cui Yun when no one was around.
Cui Yun glanced at her casually, "What do you mean?"
Forsythia was frightened by Cui Yun's sudden chill, and muttered, "Yes, it's just a little different. My maid also came to serve the Queen Mother with you Cui Yun. It turns out that although the Queen Mother has a gentle personality, she is really an eye-catcher."
I can’t see the owner of the sand. If it were in the past, Mrs. Li and Wang Shanggong would not be alive today."
Forsythia's doubts had also troubled Cui Yun. Ever since Xu Wan made the Queen Mother faint, when the Queen Mother woke up again, she seemed to be a different person. However, the master was always the master. As a subordinate, how could he talk about the master behind his back?
right or wrong?
"Forsythia, do you still remember why I asked you to come to me in Shang Gong Bureau?"
Forsythia was stunned when she heard this, bit her lower lip and nodded.
At that time, she had just entered the palace and was used as a gunman because of her innocent and straightforward personality. Cui Yun couldn't bear her being used by others, so he interceded for her and kept her with him. In this way, he took her all the way to the Queen Mother of Yongguang Palace.
around.
At that time, she was accused of talking nonsense about her master and gossiping. But she was also used as a mouthpiece. In the end, the person who spoke first was not guilty, and the person who listened in the end was not guilty. Only the middle one was her.
The messenger was found guilty.
When Cui Yun brought her to her residence after being beaten and dying, the first thing he told her was, "In this palace, there is a saying that you must always remember, disaster comes from the mouth."
Cui Yun stopped her defense, "Don't you understand yet? Your right and wrong are not important here. What is important is what the master thinks is right or wrong. Whoever the master says is right is right; whoever says is wrong is wrong.
.You are innocent, but you are not completely innocent. Didn’t those words come from your mouth?"
Forsythia was speechless by these words, and since then she has restrained her personality and followed Cui Yun wholeheartedly to work diligently.
When Cui Yun suddenly mentioned this dark history, Forsythia's face turned red and she looked embarrassed.
"I don't mean to embarrass you, but the Queen Mother has been too indulgent of you recently, and you have relapsed a bit. I just want to remind you."
"I can pretend that I didn't hear the words you just asked me, but you must also understand that they must rot in your stomach. No third person can hear these words. Do you understand?"
Forsythia nodded heavily, and after a while she still refused to give up and asked, "But Ms. Cui, don't you have the slightest doubt?"
"I promise that I will ask this question and you will answer this question. I will never mention these words again!" Forsythia stretched out her three fingers and swore to the sky.
Seeing that Cui Yun's expression was a little loose, Forsythia tightly hugged Cui Yun's sleeves, "Ms. Cui, good sister, just tell me!"
"You!" Cui Yun tapped the tip of Forsythia's nose. This damn girl had been by his side for a long time, and she was not afraid of her at all.
"It's impossible to say no. But no matter how the Queen Mother changes, one thing will never change, that is, she is the Queen Mother and our master."
Forsythia blinked and said nothing, but Aning, who was walking by, saw Cui Yun and Forsythia here, and quickly came over and asked Cui Yun, "I just sent away Dr. Li. The doctor said, Superintendent Zhang
It will probably take a long time to wake up, so should we let him lie down like this in Yongguang Palace?"
Cui Yun sneered and said, "It just so happens that two positions have just been vacated in Yeting Prison. Just leave one for our Superintendent Zhang."
Aning looked at Forsythia who was covering her mouth and snickering in confusion. She was just going out for a trip, so how come there were so many things that she didn't know about?
"Just throw it to Shen Wenjin and let her figure it out."
"By the way, when you go to see off Superintendent Zhang tomorrow, you can help me convey the Queen Mother's decree..."
After Cui Yun arranged the affairs, Aning and Forsythia went their separate ways to rest, leaving Cui Yun alone in the small courtyard. Cui Yun looked at the retreating figures of Forsythia and Aning, thinking of Forsythia's doubts and her almost complete
Those abnormalities that I was accustomed to, I shook my head helplessly, turned around and went to sleep.
However, Sheng Shaoqing was numbed by the history lesson that the system suddenly interrupted. In the middle of the night, she really didn't want to listen to the trivial festivities and some childish political struggles of these ministers.
In the third year of Jingyuan Dynasty, Wei Zhen did not like the year-end evaluation given to him by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so he stuffed two caterpillars into the boots of the officials in charge.
In the fifth year of Taihe, Wei Zhen misunderstood that Mr. Xu coveted his carriage, and actually beat Mr. Xu in the street. Afterwards, Mr. Xu asked for privacy. Although the specific situation cannot be verified, this Mr. Xu was promoted to a high rank within three years.
Five times, it says it all.
In the first year of the Taiqing Dynasty, Li Lingjiang once again petitioned for a war, but Wei Zhen refuted his request again. Li Lingjiang went home and went on a hunger strike for three days in protest. After three days, Li Lingjiang was no longer thin, but plump. It turned out that his three-day hunger strike was
I didn’t eat a main meal for three days, there was no dessert before the meal, no snack after the meal, and a late night snack was a complete waste.
The most high-end political struggles often use the simplest means.
After seeing Mr. Wei's "great achievements" over the years, Sheng Shaoqing added two more words to Wei Zhen's evaluation: shameless.
