Chapter 112 Im on fire
It was reasonable for the queen to secretly help Chu Ruoxi excuse her. Chu Ruoxi received her affection and nodded secretly in her heart, but inadvertently looked at the prince who had been cold since she had seen the ceremony.
He frowned slightly and looked at Lingbao thoughtfully without saying a word.
"Empress, the slave is wronged. I dare not do anything wrong to my master, let alone poison the soup. Please check it clearly!"
The queen put such a big hat on him. He was a little eunuch. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants and kept kowtowing to beg the queen for kindness.
"The medicine was handed to you by Dr. He. It's you who decocted the medicine. If you didn't do it, is it still Dr. He?"
The queen's eyes were cold, and as soon as the voice fell, the imperial doctor He on one side "ploped" and fell to her knees. "Please investigate clearly. Weichen did not frame Qin Liangyuan. The medicine that helped Qin Liang's medicine was given to the pharmacy according to the prescription. The father-in-law of the pharmacy room picked it up, and then ordered the little eunuch to hand it over to Weichen for inspection to confirm that it was okay. Bao fried it and sent it to Longxiang Hall.
"Doctor He doesn't need to be so nervous. I don't doubt your intention, just talk about the matter."
"Thank you for your kindness. Weichen really has no intention of poisoning her. Please check it clearly." Doctor He was secretly relieved.
The queen's words with him forced Lingbao to death. He cried and said, "Empress, I'm... I don't have the heart to poison Liangyuan. I really don't!"
"Mother, what the little eunuch said also makes sense." The prince was committed to finding the real murderer to avenge his wife and children, and he did not want to see the queen intending to find a ghost to find a ghost to expose the matter.
"Zeng'er, do you mean this little eunuch is innocent?"
"To poison the royal family, it is necessary to separate the corpses of five horses and nine clans. If Lingbao wants to harm Liangyuan, he should find a way to stay out of the matter. It is impossible to imagine that after the incident, the palace will never give up. He must thoroughly investigate the matter. Isn't he poisoned the medicine to find his own way to die."
After the prince finished speaking, he looked at the queen with a gentle look in the past, and he was a little lonely today.
When the queen saw him like this, she inevitably felt heartache, and her words softened a little: "It's not the slave who decocted medicine. Is it the palace man of Longxiang Hall?"
"This..." The prince was a little embarrassed. He turned to ask Lingbao, "Lingbao, the medicine is in your hands. Something happened when you sent it to my Longxiang Hall. What do you explain?"
Lingbao kowtowed and said, "Your Highness is wise. I really didn't do anything to poison Liangyuan, and I dare not leave half a step when Ijian medicine." He looked at Chu Ruoxi piti pitifully and cried, "Yuanzi is a powerful slave around the crown princess. He came to the imperial hospital to get medicine from Dr. He. I dared not neglect him and chatted with him for a few words. When the medicine was cooked, he sent it to Longxiang Hall to Master Liangyuan."
"B bastard, what do you mean by that?" Seeing that the eunuch was really looking for death, Chu Yuanshan actually attracted the fire to his daughter. As soon as his eyes were cold, he was about to attack.
Chu Ruoxi saw all this coldly and knew that the prince had specially invited the queen to summon their father and daughter to the palace. It would never be as simple as inviting them to drink tea.
Seeing that the little eunuch Lingbao repeatedly mentioned the slave Yuanzi beside him, he expected that the prince's situation must have been laid for himself. While thinking about how to fight back, he was thinking about how to make the prince offend Chu Yuanshan, forcing Chu Yuanshan to jump off the wall early and turn against the prince.
"Father is angry, and this dog slave is vicious. I want to see what else he can say. Is it true that the empress is blind with the prince? It's up to him to bully Ruoxi!"
Chu Ruoxi's face changed. He advised Chu Yuanshan first, and then glared at Lingbao. He clearly said that he wanted to blame himself.
"I didn't dare to talk nonsense. Yuanzi did find a slave. At that time, Eunuch Zheng of Qianyuan Hall came to get the emperor's soup. When I didn't dare to delay the emperor, I left for a while and personally pointed the decoction to Eunuch Zheng in Qianyuan Hall..."
Lingbao was scolded by Chu Ruoxi and his daughter. Knowing that his life was in the middle of the master's thought, he was no longer so panicked and explained what happened to the prince that day.
When the prince heard the words, his eyebrows jumped: "Wait, when you prepared the medicine for your father, was someone guarding Qin Liangyuan's soup in the pharmacy?"
"No... On that day, the queen summoned the imperial doctors to the Qianyuan Hall to serve the disease. There were not many people in the imperial hospital, but they were all very busy. On that day, only slaves were decocting medicine in the pharmacy, but the Yuanzi beside the crown princess was still there at that time..."
"Chu Ruoxi, you are so poisonous!" The prince didn't wait for Lingbao to finish speaking and hit the imperial case with a heavy punch. "Now, what else do you have to say about the case of Qin Liangyuan being poisoned?"
The prince suddenly made trouble and pointed directly at Chu Ruoxi. Chu Yuanshan's face darkened and glanced at the prince with dissatisfaction. He wanted to attack, but finally endured it.
And everyone's eyes fell on Chu Ruoxi.
It's really a Hongmen banquet!
Chu Ruoxi stabilized her mind, her eyes were like water, and she looked at the prince, very innocent. "Your Highness, Ruoxi doesn't understand what she said!"
Her words are timid, her eyes are flexible, and her face is full of grievances.
The prince's nose snorted, and his elegant handsome face was a little angry. "Qin Liangyuan's medicine was tamped, and the slaves around you appeared in the imperial hospital for no reason. So many people in the hospital did not ask, but went to ask the Lingbao of the prescription for decoction. Isn't this an intention?"
"Your Highness means that Ruoxi ordered people to go to the Imperial Hospital and poison Qin Liangyuan's soup?"
Chu Ruoxi looked disappointed and smiled at the corners of his mouth. The smile fell into the eyes of others, but it was extremely sad.
"What if it's not?" The prince did not forgive, "Why did your people go to the prescription to ask Lingbao about Dr. He? On that day, my father's emperor Long was not feeling well. Who doesn't know where the imperial doctor went?"
"What a injustice! Queen, Your Highness, I did go to Dr. He that day, but I didn't poison Qin Liangyuan's soup!" Yuanzi ploped and fell to the ground: "Miss, save the slave, I really don't have it!"
"Zhang'er! It hasn't been found out yet. Don't be angry yet!" The queen looked at his hand that hit the table angrily and reminded him that there was no evidence that Chu Ruoxi ordered his servants to do it. Don't jump to conclusions!
Chu Ruoxi stood up and took two steps forward: "Queen, no matter what Your Highness thinks of Ruoxi, Ruoxi has only one sentence. Such a thing is not done by Ruoxi. No matter how stupid Ruoxi is, she will not let Yuanzi do such a harmful thing, and let His Royal Highness clearly suspect that it is Yuanzi's hands!"
"Ruoxi, don't fool your mother anymore. You won't do anything unreasonable? Why did you deceive the king of Jin to lose Liangyuan and fall into the water? Do you know that if you are not careful, Liangyuan may drown thousands of carp pools?
The prince also stood up and pointed to Yuanzi and said, "What is it possible to instruct him to blatantly poison Qin Liangyuan?"
"Your Highness, do you really think that Ruoxi is a witch of the world and do everything?" Chu Ruoxi was angry: "What is Qin Liangyuan? No matter how powerful she is, she is just a daughter of a guilty minister. I am the crown princess appointed by the former emperor. What is the crown princess of the emperor today? It is worth me to argue with her! Just relying on a dog slave to talk nonsense and say without evidence that I poisoned Qin Liangyuan, Your Highness, is that's how you help the emperor take care of the government affairs of the court?
"Presumptuous!" The prince was also angry.
The queen quickly agreed: "You are not young. How can you play like this? Zheng'er has no evidence. It really can't be said that the person who killed Qin Liangyuan is Ruoxi. Ruoxi, as Zheng'er's imperial concubine, how can you talk about Zheng's previous political affairs? It really shouldn't be!"
The prince stared coldly at Chu Ruoxi, "I thought about my mother's relationship with my uncle. I originally planned to do something wrong, as long as you repent sincerely. If you don't repent for your own selfish desires, don't blame me anymore."
Chu Ruoxi's heart sank, and the prince came prepared. Did he set up a death to frame himself?
"Jing'er!" The queen's face changed and she wanted to stop the prince, but the prince was not moved. "Mother, Chu Ruoxi's heart is vicious, and this will reveal her true face!"
"Come on!"
As soon as the prince's words were finished, a 50-year-old eunuch knelt on his highness, "The slave Yunluo visited the queen and the prince!"
This eunuch Chu Ruoxi had never seen. I don't know how the prince called him to testify. He looked at him and sneered, but found that the eunuch's body trembled. She secretly said in her heart: The prince is also eye-catching and use it as a play!
Chu Yuanshan was very dissatisfied with the prince's behavior and said coldly to the prince, "Your Highness, there is no turning back. Things are not as complicated as you think. There is something wrong with Qin Liangyuan's medicine, or it may be that some people in the Imperial Hospital have derelictioned their duties. It really has nothing to do with Ruoxi. Red, the secretary of Dali Temple, is strict and handle the case. Like God, don't let him investigate this matter carefully, so that people won't be panicked and restless!"
The prince said, "Uncle, don't worry, I will never wrong her! Please ask my uncle to give me an explanation in a moment! Yunluo, tell the truth about what you saw that day.
As soon as the prince finished his words, Yuanzi's body was soft, a little lost his temper, and forced to calm down. He knelt on the ground and stared at the floor tiles in front of him, looking a little panicked.
"Yunluo obeys!"
Yunluo kowtowed his head and replied, "I was responsible for doing chores and cluttering materials in the Tai Hospital. On the same day, I cleaned the backyard and accidentally met this one." He raised his finger to Yuanzi, "I didn't look like a eunuch in the palace, so I paid more attention to it. But I didn't want to lose something from him after touching him!"
"What is it?" The prince asked.
"Yes... it's a large pile of silver tickets and a small paper bag! He picked it up in a hurry and stuffed it back into his pocket and left in a hurry.
"Puff!" Chu Ruoxi suppressed a sneer and interrupted Yunluo's words, "Do you really see clearly? What kind of paper bag is a large pile of silver tickets?"
Yunluo was suddenly interrupted by Chu Ruoxi, as if he had been hit by a whip. His voice lowered and he dared not look up at her. "If you go back to the princess, I will look at it carefully... It's indeed a lot of silver tickets."
"In addition to silver tickets, are there paper bags? How big is that paper bag? What are you pretending to be?" Chu Ruoxi looked calm, like looking at a jumping clown, and asked Yunluo.
Yunluo panicked and looked up at the prince, "The paper bag is not very big, I... I didn't know what was inside at that time?"
"Joke? Even Your Highness dares to fool things. Chu Ruoxi looked at the prince, "Your Highness, this eunuch is full of lies and disturbs the palace. Please blame him as an example!"
