Chapter 169 Suspicion

Ruan Lingzheng was shocked when she learned about this, but after thinking about it, he felt that this matter was not necessarily done by Mo Ziyao. He knew that Qing Zhaoyi was pregnant with only three imperial descendants, and she also advised Qing Zhaoyi to treat her well at that time, not to mention that when the child was born, she would be given birth to her. Why did she have to kill the imperial descendants at this time?

So he immediately ordered Gan Lin and the imperial doctor to go to the cold palace to check what was going on. The result of the imperial doctor's examination was that the reason for Qing Zhaoyi's auterine was that the bird's nest contained enough musk and crane red that caused her to slip in an instant.

Ruan Lingzheng was both angry and painful after hearing this. Although he had no feelings for Qing Zhaoyi, she was pregnant with his first child after all. And the murderer who killed his child turned out to be Mo Ziyao. Why was it her? Why did she do this? Why?

recalled that day, Mo Ziyao leaned in his arms to tell her that Qing Zhaoyi was pregnant, congratulated him for having his first child, and begged for Gu Qinger, who was still in the cold palace, to let her go. But in a blink of an eye, how did she become the murderer of her child?

He wants to hear what Mo Ziyao said.

"Gan Lin, go and pass on to Yao Fei."

"Yes, but your Majesty, do you think you need to report this to the Empress Dowager?" Gan Lin looked at Ruan Lingzheng's face and asked carefully.

Ruan Lingzheng's face is dark, and there is no queen in the harem. The size of the harem is currently under the control of the empress dowager's hand. If you say such a big thing, you must report it to the Empress Dowager. However, in this way, whether this matter is done by Mo Ziyao or not, there is no room for manoeuvre, but I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager's nature will not easily let her go.

"Don't use it first." Out of selfishness, Ruan Lingzheng still wanted to solve this matter by himself. What's more, he also wanted to know why Mo Ziyao did this.

Gan Lin also knew that the matter was serious and did not dare to look at Ruan Lingzheng's gloomy face and quickly retreated.

......

Qing Zhaoyi ate the bird's nest she sent, and Mo Ziyao almost got the news at the same time as Ruan Lingzheng.

When she learned about this, she could hardly believe it was true. How could she miscarry her? At that time, when she and Yunlan went to see her, she stood there and talked to herself. How could she meet the Yuyao Palace with her forefoot, and her back foot had a miscture?

Mo Ziyao suddenly thought of the 'accident' half a month ago. Is it that the man borrowed the bird's nest and blamed me?" I dare not continue to think about it. If so, then this person's mind is really deep.

At the thought of this, her heart couldn't help but be confused. First, she felt sorry for the unmarried child, and second, she couldn't guess the blame, and her heart was inevitably panicked. Third, the emperor and the empress dowager must be furious when they know about this.

Today, she was the only one who went to the cold palace to see Qing'er, but after she left, she had a misdeportuncim. Whether someone blamed or Qing'er accidentally killed the child, of course, it is unlikely that she will get rid of it. No matter how you defend yourself, this guilt may not be washed away.

At this time, the little maid who was called to the cold palace to inquire about the news came back, and she told the reason for the imperial doctor's examination of the minor birth again.

After listening to this, Mo Ziyao's face changed. Musk and crane red? How can there be these things in the bird's nest sent by my palace?

Fortunately, Yunlan's calm nature is not messy. She thought about it carefully and said, "Don't worry. I think I called the maidservant who boiled the bird's nest to ask first."

Mo Ziyao's face was slightly dark and sighed, "If it's really the medicine of the people around her, it's really indisputable. Yuzhi, go and find all the people who have just boiled the bird's nest and all the people who have passed by. I want to ask one by one.

Yuzhi took the order. Yunlan looked at the slowly closed door and frowned and said, "I'm afraid I can't ask anything if I come to them."

Mo Ziyao's face was full of sadness and couldn't help but be annoyed, "I shouldn't have visited her in the cold palace today, otherwise this would have happened."

Yunlan said, "Don't be angry. I went with you. Naturally, I also know that you are concerned about the Qing Dynasty. It can only be blamed that the maidservant didn't say anything to stop it. If the emperor and the empress dowager ask, the maidservant is your personal maidservant, and what you say may not be counted.

"What should I do?" These Mo Ziyao knew it in her heart, but they couldn't find evidence, and it was difficult for the Empress Dowager and the emperor to believe themselves. What should they do? Can we just sit back and wait for death?

Yunlan saw Mo Ziyao walking around the hall with her hands behind her back, and the anxiety on her face was hard to hide. She also knew that it was difficult for her to collect her mind at this moment. She was afraid that she would first mess up her own feet and let the blamemaker succeed.

Yunlan bit her lips and thought for a moment, "In fact, we may not be able to find evidence. As long as we calm down and think about it carefully, we can always find clues."

Mo Ziyao sat down at the table and put one hand on the edge of the table. "Yes, we can't mess ourselves up. The more this time, the more calm we are."

Yunlan looked at Mo Ziyao with admiration and said in a low voice, "I think this matter is very suspicious. You should know that the two drugs, musk and crane top red, are inaccessible to ordinary people. The musk is made from the dried secretions in the male savorous sac of the deeridae musk. It is an extremely precious medicinal material and a kind of high-grade fragrance. Using it to make spices may cause pregnant women to have slippery tires after smelling for a long time, and making powder to swallow them may cause pregnant women to have a small birth. Therefore, the use of this medicine is prohibited in the palace. Hedinghong is a forbidden drug in the palace, which has been under the sole care of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. It is specially used to kill some people sentenced to death, and even the Imperial Hospital cannot be directly contacted. Although musk can't guarantee that pregnant women will have a small birth, with a small amount of crane red, it will be foolproof. Even if it is not a miscarrison, it will die.

While talking, Yuzhi has come in with two little maids. They probably also knew about Qing Zhaoyi's miscarriness. They were so scared that they respectfully said hi to Mo Ziyao and didn't even dare to raise their heads.

Mo Ziyao glanced at the two of them and asked, "What are your names?"

A maid hurriedly said, "The maidservant Yanchun works in the small kitchen and is responsible for making ordinary soup."

Another said, "The maidservant is bright red and also works in the small kitchen, only responsible for loading or delivering food."

"Hmm." After listening to it, Mo Ziyao's voice gradually cooled down: "Wait aside first."

The two little maids were still granted amnesty and quickly waited carefully, lowering their heads and wringing their fingers, looking very nervous.

Yunlan glanced at the two submissive little maids, held the corners of her mouth slightly, and continued, "If these two medicines are the bright spring of boiling bird's nest or the bright red of the food box secretly put in..."

"It's not done by the maidservant (the maidservant didn't do it), please observe..." The two knelt on the ground almost at the same time and said nervously with one voice.

Mo Ziyao didn't even look at the two, but said, "Sister Lan continues to talk."

Yunlan said, "They are just two little maids in the kitchen. How did they get these two medicines, and how did they know that this bird's nest must be sent to Qing Zhaoyi who was pregnant? Is there a fifth person besides you and my empress dowager? Otherwise, why does it happen to be a musk that makes people slip? The two of them had direct contact with the bird's nest and were very suspicious. They would be interrogated by the emperor together later.

When the two heard that they were going to be handed over to the emperor, they hurriedly touched the ground with their heads and desperately begged for mercy: "Mother, I really don't know (I really didn't do it)!"

"Only the emperor will decide whether you do it or not. Although you are from this palace, if you do such a thing, even this palace will be difficult to protect you. So..."

"Mother, I really don't know (I really didn't do it)!" ......

After saying this for half a day, Mo Ziyao knew that she really couldn't ask anything. Whether they really don't know this or refuse to admit it, they may have tortured them because of this, so they have to say, "Well, you two get up first."

Yunlan walked into Mo Ziyao and lowered her voice and said, "Mother, I think that if this matter is really not done by them, I'm afraid that someone took the opportunity to poison the bird's nest after we left, and it is not ruled out that Qing Zhaoyi's own hand."

"Ah!" Mo Ziyao was obviously stunned and said sadly, "It's indeed possible, but the tiger poison doesn't eat the child. How can she do it? That's her own flesh and blood!"

"I'm just guessing." Yunlan hurriedly said.

Mo Ziyao's eyes flashed and said urgently, "No, we just heard that Qing Zhaoyi was pregnant and didn't let Dr. Zhong take the pulse, so we don't know her situation."

"Does the Empress think..." Is her pregnancy fake?

"Yes, I think there may be something wrong with the child in her abdomen." Maybe it's not healthy, otherwise how dare they attack an imperial family? You should know that the emperor and the empress dowager will investigate thoroughly after knowing this, unless they are absolutely sure.

Before he could think about it, Gan Lin hurried in to convey his will. Mo Ziyao had already guessed that he would ask herself in person, but she didn't expect it to be so fast.

suppressing all her emotions, she said calmly, "I also regret the miscility of Qing Zhaoyi, and this matter has an insemitable connection with this palace. In this way, I will take the people related to this matter to see each other."

"It's so good."

Gan Lin took a look at Mo Ziyao and didn't say much. He asked someone to invite Dr. An, who had been asking for her pulse since Qing Zhaoyi was pregnant, and personally led Mo Ziyao and others to Tianze Palace.

In the harsh winter royal garden, several different varieties of cold plums have been opened these days, red, pink and white, competing for beauty in the cold wind, each with its own advantages.

These cold plums can't help but remind Mo Ziyao that Ruan Lingzheng once said to her that when the flowers are all open, she will walk with her in the plum garden and walk in the snow to enjoy the plum blossoms.

"The plum blossoms are now in bloom, but I don't know if I have the opportunity to enjoy the plum blossoms in the snow with Zheng. I'm really afraid to see the political meeting look disappointed and hateful to me. Alas, I just hope he can believe me as always.

Tianze Palace is not too far from Yuyao Palace, but today Mo Ziyao feels that this road seems to be much closer and closer. I really hope this road will never end.

It's just that she knows that this is unreal after all, and what she should face can't be avoided after all. Although she didn't do it herself, she was still afraid of confronting Ruan Lingzheng.

Still familiar Tianze Palace, still familiar bright yellow back. Just arrived at the door, Mo Ziyao instinctively stopped and her heart beat violently. She only heard the high voices of bright red and bright spring coming along with her: "I see the emperor, long live the emperor!" They knelt down and saluted very knowingly.

Mo Ziyao was stunned for such a moment, but they shouted so loudly. His thoughts were pulled back fiercely and hurriedly saluted him: "I have seen the emperor! The emperor is auspicious!"
