Chapter 364 Who is the Murderer

Yuan Qingling asked: "Has the window in that grandma's room been sealed?"

Grandma said: "There must be some."

"you sure?"

Grandma said: "Of course, not only her, but also the window of my original room was sealed. This window had no door. The wind blew in in the winter, but it was very cold."

"No way? What should I do if it rains?" Yuan Qing was startled. She had never seen the house where the nuns lived in the palace. She didn't know what it looked like.

Grandma smiled and said, "No, that small window is just a hole the size of two fists. Plus there is a porch outside, and the window is high, so rain will not spill in."

Yuan Qingling said suspiciously: "This is strange. If other people's windows are also sealed and they burn the stove inside in winter, the chance of poisoning will be very high."

Aunt Xi waved her hand, "Princess, where can the servants get the charcoal? Even if the master rewards me, it's only one or two kilograms a month. I can't bear to burn a few pieces in a night. But, will burning the stove cause poisoning? I have never heard of this.

."

Yuan Qingling said in surprise: "No charcoal? Then why did I hear the prince say that when this grandma died, a charcoal pot was lit in the house?"

"Maybe it was a reward from the Queen." Auntie Xi thought for a moment and said, "Yes, I remember it was very cold in the days when she died. She was already old and was afraid of the cold at night. Burning more charcoal would also be helpful.

of."

Yuan Qingling asked about other aspects of the case, and Grandma Xi remembered them all. After Yuan Qingling heard this, she felt more and more that Luo Guibi was unjustly accused.

After Grandma Xi finished speaking, she asked Yuan Qingling, "Why do you suddenly ask about these old things?"

Yuan Qingling looked at her grandma and said softly: "Luo Guifei was wronged. She did not murder the queen."

Grandma was shocked, "Unjustly accused?"

"Yes, it's very possible."

Mammy was stunned, "But the emperor personally ordered Luo Guibin to die. If Luo Guibin was unjustly accused, wouldn't it mean that the emperor made a mistake?"

Yuan Qingling lowered her eyes before she thought of this problem.

Your Majesty, will you admit that you were wrong?

Mammy sighed: "It would be great if the verdict could be overturned. The Ninth Prince and Seventeenth Princess would no longer have to be bullied. Now their situation in the palace is really worrying."

Yuan Qingling had never seen the Seventeenth Princess and had no impression of her, so he asked: "How old is the Seventeenth Princess this year?"

"It's twelve." Aunt Xi said.

After a pause, she sighed softly, "But it seems that the child is eight or nine years old, with a sallow face and thin skin. The queen must have ordered the nanny and the others to be mean. If they want to live in the palace, the two brothers and sisters must be carried by the queen."

If the Queen is in a bad mood, she will take it out on her siblings first."

Yuan Qingling asked: "Does the Emperor not care?"

Aunt Xi smiled bitterly, "Who dares to report it to the Emperor? And even if the Emperor knew about it, he would at most just ask the Queen to pay attention. Is it possible that he would still be angry with the Queen?"

Yuan Qingling thought about it. The emperor must have felt sorry for the queen who was almost poisoned to death. As long as it wasn't too much, the emperor would have turned a blind eye.

So what kind of life did the ninth prince and the seventeenth princess lead?

After Yu Wenhao left Jinghou Mansion, he went straight to Huguo Temple.

Around dark, we had arrived at Huguo Temple.

Without saying a word, he pulled the abbot into the Zen room.

Master Abbot was confused by him, "Your Majesty, why are you so anxious?"

Yu Wenhao ran in directly after tying his horse outside. He was a little out of breath and could not take a breath, so he immediately asked: "Master, the last time I brought the princess here, you talked in private. Did you tell her?

, if a person lights a charcoal stove in a small secret room, will he be poisoned to death?"

Master Abbot slowly sat down, crossed his legs, and said without blushing, "I did say that."

"Seriously?" Yu Wenhao's eyes almost jumped out of his head.

"I really said it," said Master Abbot.

Yu Wenhao sat down next to him, "No, I am saying, will people really die?"

"Well, it depends on how long you have been staying in it, and it also depends on how big the house is and how well the air circulation is."

Yu Wenhao said: "The house is small and sealed, and it only lasts one night."

The abbot clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, if this is the case, there is indeed a possibility of poisoning, and the possibility is very high."

"Where did this poison come from? What is it called?" Yu Wenhao was confused.

The abbot looked at him with pitiful eyes. Poor man, he knew at a glance that he had not studied chemistry well.

Master Abbot started Baidu Encyclopedia to popularize science, "That's what happens. People are trapped in a closed space and burning charcoal. The combustion process will consume the oxygen in the closed space. Afterwards, the incomplete combustion of carbon and oxygen will combine to form carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide can combine with

The hemoglobin in the blood is tightly bound, causing it to lose its ability to exchange gases. People eventually die from carbon monoxide poisoning and lack of oxygen."

After the master abbot finished speaking, he looked at him gently, saying it so clearly, the prince should understand.

But Yu Wenhao was completely confused. His pupils shrank, then expanded and then narrowed, but he still couldn't understand what the master said, "What Yang Qi? The combination of Yang Qi and Yin Qi will be poisonous? What kind of red protein? Is the protein red?"

What kind of egg is it?”

"Hemoglobin." The master said.

"Is there protein in the blood? Whose blood has protein in it?" Yu Wenhao collapsed.

Master Abbot looked at him and said, "About this issue, why don't you ask the princess?"

"How could she know? Isn't this all what you said?" Yu Wenhao said.

Seniors have done harm to people, Master Abbot sighed.

"Your Majesty, why don't you tell me, what is the purpose of this matter? Is it to resolve the case?"

Yu Wenhao nodded, "Yes, to conclude the case, I suspect that Luo Guibin did not murder the queen."

So he told the story of the death of the nun next to the queen who was poisoned and mentioned it to the abbot.

After hearing this, Master Abbot said: "According to what the prince described, this nanny died of carbon monoxide and lack of oxygen."

"Is that the murderer?" Yu Wenhao asked.

"Hmm...how do I put this? Tan must be the murderer, but there must also be other factors, such as sealing a small space, duration, etc." Master Abbot tried to put it simply.

But Yu Wenhao did not give up and tried to understand, saying: "That is to say, grandma burned the charcoal herself and died of poisoning. It has nothing to do with anyone."

Master Abbot shook his head, "You can't say that."

"Ah?" Yu Wenhao was confused again. Isn't that what he meant?

Master Abbot said slowly: "Your Majesty must prove that she burned the charcoal herself and was not placed by others."

"It can be proved that the door is locked from the inside and no one has entered." Yu Wenhao said.

"However, as far as I know, there is no such thing as a nun in the palace." Master Abbot's eyes shone with wisdom.

Yu Wenhao was startled, yes, there is no such thing as a servant in the palace, unless they are highly respected stewards.

"Xu was given to her by the Queen," Yu Wenhao guessed.

"Then we need to prove the queen's intention in giving the charcoal, and also, does the queen know that if the charcoal is burned in a sealed room, it will cause poisoning? That's all I said, no more, the prince can investigate by himself.

"

This is what Master Abbot said.
