Chapter 394: Serial Bureau: Rebuttal

If the emperor spoils the Empress Dowager Nalan so much, he will definitely be angry with these close maids because of the death of the Empress Dowager Nalan. He is likely to order all of them to be executed and be buried with the Empress Dowager Nalan! She doesn't want to die!

And now the only chance is to seize the opportunity to put all the blame on Song Zichu's head. With Song Zichu, the mastermind, who also transferred the anger of the emperor, the emperor may have a little more pity for these close maids of honor. Even if they are allowed to guard the tomb for the Empress Dowager Nalan, it is better than being executed like this!

What's more, at present, Empress Zhang and Song Zichu are tit-for-tat. If she helps to bite Song Zichu to death, Empress Zhang may remember her merits and show kindness. She is the queen, and she can say the power of life and death of the people in the harem in one word!

Anyway, according to the arrangement of Empress Dowager Nalan, the charge of murdering mother-in-law and dragon descendants was originally to be put on Song Zichu's head. All kinds of details and evidence have been prepared for a long time, but now it's just an accident.

The Empress Dowager was really poisoned, and the rest are still the same as the original script. It is not difficult to find Song Zichu's charges!

Thinking about it, Ziyuan suddenly talked.

"Since the Empress Dowager's illness, the slaves and maidservants have served the Empress, and have always been cautious in their diet. They tried the poison before letting the Empress eat, and they dared not neglect at all. Only last night, because of a moment of happiness, the emerald white jade flower made by Princess Ding... The maidservant thought that the Empress Dowager and Princess Ding were after all the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the direct relatives. After the Princess Ding returned to Beijing, the Empress Dowager was close to her and loved her and almost even took out her heart. However, if she had the slightest conscience, it was impossible to murder the Empress Dowager and pity her. The Empress Dowager didn't eat all day. She just thought that the Empress's body couldn't stand it. Since she liked it, it was better to eat more or less, so she neglected it... The maidservant never thought that the princess was gentle and quiet on the surface and her heart was so vicious, just because the Empress Dowager had given birth to the arrangement of a side concubine by Her Royal Highness before. , you will do such a poison! I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"

With that, Ziyuan still couldn't help kowtoing, looking regretful.

Seeing that she said that the maidservant deserved to die, she pushed all the blame on her head and tried her best to get rid of herself. After a little thought, Zichu understood Ziyuan's thoughts. She sneered in her heart, but on the surface she looked aggrieved and angry. She bit her lips and said, "Ziyuan, I have no hatred with you. Why do you slander me? You were not the only one present last night, everyone heard it clearly. Obviously, the mother said that she had no appetite for other meals and only wanted to eat emerald white jade flowers, but the cooks in the imperial dining room could not cook it. I originally felt that my cooking skills were neglected and I didn't want to do it. You said that I have lived in Yunzhou for two years and must be familiar with these Yunzhou dishes, but now I don't even want to cook a dish for my mother. . I really thought about it when I saw my mother, so I made a fool of myself. Why are you so... so..."

As he spoke, he suddenly stamped his feet, covered his sleeves and sobbed, looking infinitely wronged.

The two sides held their own words and couldn't argue. The concubines led by Empress Zhang looked at this and then at that, which seemed difficult to make a decision.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty, in fact, it is not difficult to identify the truth. As long as you bring up the emerald white jade flowers made by Princess Ding and ask the imperial doctor to test the poison, you will know whether Princess Ding is innocent or the murderer of the Empress Dowager!"

Ziyuan did not quarrel with Zichu, but directly threw out a killer mace, "That plate of emerald white jade flower, the Empress Dowager and Princess Hui were not used up last night, and there are still remnants left in the kitchen. Just take them to distinguish them. Please allow the emperor, the emperor and the Empress!"

Of course, Ziyuan knew that the plate of emerald white jade flowers had been tamped when it was brought back to the small kitchen by her hand.

Sure enough, when the remnants of the emerald white jade flower were served, the imperial doctor affirmed: "This dish is indeed poisoned with a considerable amount of poison orchids, which is exactly the poisoned by the Empress Dowager and Princess Hui, but it is covered by the smell of thick soup and ginger spices and other smells. Easy to find."

The imperial doctor's words are equivalent to declaring Zichu's crime and solidify her crime of murdering the empress dowager and Princess Hui.

For a moment, everyone's eyes focused on Zichu.

Junyu's heart sank. It seems that this is simply a well-designed conspiracy, completely for the beginning of the son!

He couldn't help but feel a burst of chagrin. Knowing that the Empress Dowager Nalan had no good intentions towards Zichu, he should not let Zichu come to Yihe Palace today. At least, avoid this limelight first, wait for him to see something, and then break it one by one. It's better than now. Watching her be accused of such a crime, but she can't fight back!

Jun Yu was annoyed, but because of her identity, she could not immediately open her mouth to defend her. Naturally, in his heart, he has begun to plan quickly, thinking about the flaws in Empress Zhang and Ziyuan's words.

In full view of the public, Zichu's expression changed from a previous grievance and anger to a complete shock, and then suddenly realized, followed by a flame of resentment and anger.

However, these emotions flowed clearly from her face. Zichu suddenly sneered, then fell silent like stagnance and nodded, "I see, that's it! So that's it!"

Seeing this, Jun Yu was eager to give Zichu a chance to defend her. She quickly asked, "Zi Chu, what do you understand? Have you thought of a way to prove your innocence?

"The facts are all there, and the evidence is as clear as a mountain. It is clear that the princess plotted the empress dowager and the dragon descendants in her womb because of personal resentment!"

Seeing that the emperor spoke for his son again, Shen Guifei was angry and hateful. He hurriedly cut off his words and said decisively, "Your Majesty, now the evidence is conclusive. It is determined that the princess is unforgivable that she plotted to murder the empress dowager and the dragon descendants. The concubine thought that it should be dealt with in accordance with the national law and sentenced the princess to be executed. Song Shi'an, the right prime minister, is not strict, which makes her make a big mistake, and she should also be guilty!"

When Queen Zhang heard Shen Gui's words, she still agreed. Later, when she heard the last sentence, she frowned and said indifferently, "Shen Gui's sister is cautious. Although there is evidence that Princess Ding and her mother's murder is inseparable, her father, the right prime minister, has only recently made great contributions to relieve the epidemic for the country and the people. Shen Gui's sister's brother has always been at odds with the prince of Song, which is also known to me, but it is not appropriate to make such a suggestion because of personal resentment.

Jun Yusun seemed to notice something from Zichu's expression and said, "Don't interrupt the two of you. Since the guilt is conclusive, why don't you listen to Princess Ding's words again? The truth will always become more and more clear, and it will neither mistake the real murderer nor wrong the innocent.

After he finished speaking, looking at Zai Zichu's expression, could it be that the Empress Dowager Nalan conspired with people to get rid of the child in Princess Hui's womb, and then set up a bitter plot to frame Zichu, but the result was so wrong that the Empress Dowager herself died of poisoning herself?

However, since the matter is the queen's own mastermind, how could she kill herself with the wrong dose?

Jun Yu thought about it and always felt that things would not be so simple...

Under the refocus of the crowd, Zichu seemed to finally wake up from shock and regain his usual calmness, quiet like an ice sculpture, and said lightly, "After the emerald white jade flower I made last night was used by my mother and Princess Hui, the remnants of vegetables have been preserved until now, but they have not been poured out or cleaned? Is it that Yi and Gong's small kitchen is so lazy and scattered, or has it that someone has long expected the current situation and deliberately kept this plate of dishes to testify?

When she reminded me like this, everyone suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Indeed, the remnants used last night should have been cleaned up a long time ago. How can they be preserved until now? Is someone deliberately framed?

Ziyuan was slightly stagnant when she heard the words, and then said, "Princess Ding probably thought that the dishes mixed with poison orchids should be given to the empress dowager, and then the small kitchen will clean up the dishes and wash the dishes, just to help you eliminate the evidence, right? Unfortunately, because the dish you cooked last night tasted very good, the Empress Dowager made a special speech and let the cooks in the kitchen learn from it. The leftovers were left by the chefs. The Empress Dowager said that if she wanted to eat in the future, she didn't have to bother the princess every time! Therefore, this happened to leave evidence. This is called the recovery of the net, which is sparse and unmissive. It must be the blessing of the empress dowager's spirit in heaven, so that the real murderer who murdered her has no place to escape!"

She reacted quickly and immediately made up for the mistake. In addition, Empress Dowager Nalan did order this before, and then it was even more suspicious of Zichu.

"Okay, as if what you said is true, I cook in the small kitchen of Yihe Palace, surrounded by the maids of Yihe Palace. In full view of the public, how can I play with the dishes?" Zichu showed no weakness to Ziyuan and asked coldly.

Ziyuan immediately retorted, "Why does Princess Ding have to argue?" Although you cook in Yihegong's small kitchen, you use your fingers to turn around the people in the small kitchen, and no one is idle. Everyone is busy and focused on the things in their hands. Why is it difficult for you to poison the dishes if you find a gap that no one pays attention to you? People in this small kitchen can also testify!"

Empress Dowager Nalan has long thought of this excuse, and they have also figured out a way to refute it.

"I admire, I have to admire Miss Ziyuan!"

Zichu sneered when he heard the words and looked at Ziyuan, who thought she was calculating. The corners of his eyes were slightly bent, forming a charming arc. He said lightly, "At that time, I remember clearly that it would be after being delivered to the kitchen door, Miss Ziyuan took the excuse to serve her mother, so she turned away. From beginning to end, after Ziyuan and several other girls served their mother here, I cook in the small kitchen. From the discovery of her mother's accident until now, Ziyuan has also stayed here and has never had contact with people in the small kitchen. However, first, when I cooked in the small kitchen, and then the cooks did not clean up the remnants of the emerald white jade flowers in a panic in order to learn this dish... Miss Ziyuan was here, but she knew clearly what happened in the small kitchen of the west courtyard, as if she had seen it with her own eyes. Can you say that Miss Ziyuan has thousands of miles of eyes and can see things through the courtyard? Or is this statement the script that you have prepared for a long time, Miss Ziyuan, just waiting for it to be said at this time?
