He Lin also wondered before the night, was it just to wrongfully accuse her of killing a cat by the person who calculated her? Even if this cat was Concubine Ande's pet, no matter how much the emperor favored Concubine Ande, there was no reason for him to be too guilty of her because of the cat, unless he wanted everyone in the world to scold him for being a faint king.

What's more, her father He Guanglie was leading the troops to fight, and her mother had just donated a sum of grain and grass to the imperial court, so it was reasonable that she would be reprimanded by the queen at most. Now it seems that she really underestimated the viciousness of Princess Chunyang, and the crime she wanted to impose on her turned out to be murder and rebellion.

In the first ten years of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the regime was not stable, and the Li family had no prestige in the eyes of the family that had been lying in this land for hundreds of years, and various forces that wanted to take the opportunity to overthrow the new dynasty sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and the assassinations of Taizu Emperor Li Junyi were also unprecedentedly frequent, and it is rumored that Li Junyi was assassinated by three different forces in the palace within a month. This is also related to the fact that the composition of the rebel army was too complex when the Li clan was unveiled, and the new system had not yet been established at the beginning, so that the palace guards at that time were like nothing.

Later, Emperor Taizu spent several years purging the various forces that fought the world with him, and formulated a etiquette system under the advice of Yang Mengzheng and other ministers, and gradually strengthened the guard of the entire palace. It is rumored that Empress Shunde was also worried about Taizu's assassination every day, and his early death made Taizu angry, so he made a decree that anyone who brought weapons and poison into the palace privately, no matter who it was, would be punished for the crime of plotting against the monarch as long as it was discovered.

Wei pulled He Lin to kneel respectfully in front of the emperor and empress, and He Linwan's knees were a little stiff when he was pulled by Wei to kneel, but she did not break free.

"Please Your Majesty and Niangniang Mingjian, although the daughter of the courtier is stubborn, she is not unreasonable, and she will never bring poisonous things into the palace. Wei's tone was resolute.

The queen pondered for a moment and let Wei and He Linwan get up. Seeing that the emperor was about to speak, Princess Chunyang said coldly: "You said that if you didn't bring it, you didn't bring it? The assassins who were caught assassinating and committed suicide without taking poison also claimed that they did not enter the palace to assassinate!"

He Linwan looked at Princess Chunyang and asked seriously, "The princess keeps saying that I entered the palace with poison, is there any evidence?"

Princess Chunyang smiled mockingly: "It's really not a coffin without tears!"

Aunt Lan answered, holding something in both hands and presenting it. It was a white embroidered handkerchief, with some fine particles scattered on it, and it was impossible to see what it was, and when Aunt Lan took it out, she stretched out her hand straight, and her face could not hide the look of disgust.

"This is what I had Yukihime dig out of Yukihime's stomach after she died. Doctor Zhang, you can discern what this is. "Princess Chunyang is an understatement.

The women present couldn't help but look away when they heard that this thing was dug out of Yukihime's stomach.

Imperial Physician Zhang walked over, carefully identified the things on the white embroidered handkerchief, and said affirmatively: "This is the seed of oleander, it is a highly poisonous thing, and the Persian cat should have swallowed the seeds of oleander and died of poisoning." ”

The queen frowned: "Even so, it can't be proved that the oleander seeds were fed to Xue Ji by He Linwan, maybe Xue Ji ate it by mistake, or someone else gave it to eat." ”

Princess Chunyang looked at Zhixue: "Did you see what Xue Ji was doing when He Linwan grabbed Xue Ji's neck?"

Zhixue thought about it, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said firmly: "The slave remembered, she seems to have stuffed something into Xue Ji's mouth!" Zhixue looked at Hongrui again and asked, "Hongrui, you also saw it, right?"

The palace maid Hongrui looked at He Linwan and nodded: "It seems, it seems to be." By the way, the thing that Miss He used to throw at Xue Ji at that time may have been oleander seeds. ”

Princess Chunyang smiled slightly, and said to the emperor and empress: "Father, mother, since this is the case, it is better to send someone to the place where He Linwan met Xue Ji in the imperial garden to find out." Maybe we'll find some evidence. ”

The queen glanced at the emperor, and only instructed the palace people: "Take someone to the imperial garden to find it." “

He Linwan didn't speak, just looked at the evidence that was said to have been found in Xue Ji's stomach and groaned secretly.

There was no doubt that the people sent by the queen had found a few yellow-green grains in the place that Hongrui had said. After being identified by Imperial Physician Zhang, it turned out to be oleander seeds, which were the same as the fine particles on the white embroidered handkerchief.

A maid also presented a purse: "This is a purse found nearby, and there are a few oleander seeds in it." ”

Hongrui immediately exclaimed when she saw the purse, pointed at He Linwan and said, "Isn't this Miss He's purse? ”

Princess Chunyang sneered: "He Linwan, now that the human and material evidence are there, are you still unwilling to admit your guilt?"

He Linwan couldn't help but laugh. This method of planting blame is really not very clever. But sometimes you don't need to be clever enough to do harm, as long as you are shameless enough.

Seeing that He Linwan didn't speak, Princess Chunyang thought that she was indefensible, and turned to the emperor and queen and said: "Father, mother, He Linwan dared to bring highly poisonous oleander seeds into the palace, it is simply ill-intentioned, and I also asked my father and mother to punish her severely to set an example." ”

Wei Shi took a closer look at the purse and immediately retorted: "This purse is not Ah Wan's!"

Aunt Lan's gaze swept over He Linwan's waist and smiled slightly: "Mrs. He, don't quibble for Miss He, this purse is the same fabric as the one worn by Miss He, maybe it is still from the same cloth." ”

Wei's face tightened: "The fabric used in this purse is a material that has been fashionable in the capital recently, and it is not unique, how can it be convicted on this basis! The needles and threads on the two purses are different! Not to mention where did Ah Wan get the oleander seeds! We do not grow oleanders in our house." ”

Aunt Lan said: "Although you don't plant oleanders in your house, the seeds of this oleander are not difficult to obtain. The He family and the Yuan family have always been good friends, and Miss He has also been to the Yuan Mansion recently, right? Maybe this kind of child was obtained by Miss He from the Yuan family. ”

Wei was shocked when he heard this, He Linwan had indeed been to the Yuan family recently, how could it be so coincidental!

He Linwan couldn't help but look at Chunyang with admiration, and in order to punish her, he thought very thoughtfully for her!

Princess Chunyang smiled slightly, and looked at the emperor at the top of the head: "Father, now that the matter has come to light, please ask my father to send it down." ”

The Emperor looked at the Empress: "I have already said it. The matter was left to the Queen. Queen?"

The queen thought for a while and looked at Concubine An De and Concubine Liu Xian: "Concubine Xian and Concubine De have been in the harem for many years, so how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Concubine Liu Xian muttered: "The concubine thinks that no matter what, the life of a cat is inferior to a human life. The girl of the He family is still young, so I hope that the queen can be light. ”

Princess Chunyang said with a smile: "Concubine Xian's words are wrong, this matter is no longer as simple as she poisoned Xue Ji, have you forgotten that Emperor Taizu once decreed that anyone who brought weapons and poison into the palace without permission should be punished for the crime of killing the monarch and plotting rebellion? Grandpa Taizu won't agree either!"

Princess Chunyang moved Emperor Taizu out, and Concubine Liu Xian and the queen glanced at each other, and it was difficult to say anything for a while.

The queen looked at Concubine An De again: "What does Concubine De think?"

The people in the palace are accustomed to this, and over the years, the queen has asked the opinions of Concubine Xian and Concubine De when dealing with some important affairs in the palace.

Concubine An De smiled slightly: "The He family is also considered a meritorious minister, even if you want to deal with the girl of the He family for the crime of treason, please ask Your Majesty to exonerate the He family." Although Concubine An De said something pleading, she had already convicted He Linwan.

Wei looked at the queen anxiously: "Please be gracious to ...... Niangniang" If he was to be punished for the crime of rebellion, He Linwan would definitely be unable to escape death.

The queen sighed: "The charge of rebellion is extraordinary, this palace can't convict people so rashly, not to mention whether this purse is owned by He Linwan still needs to be verified......

Princess Chunyang said: "Queen Mother." Even if you want to postpone the trial, this He Linwan is also a person suspected of treason, is it possible that you still want to let her go back first? In my opinion, you should still put her in prison first!"

He Linwan, who had not spoken, finally spoke, she ignored the words of the Duke of Chunyang who sent her to prison, raised her head and said to the queen: "Queen Mother, this purse with oleander seeds is not mine, and the so-called crime of rebellion is just a crime of wanting to add it." ”

Princess Chunyang stared at He Linwan coldly: "Is it a crime that you want to add to the crime, and when you are in prison and punished, you will tell the truth." ”

He Linwan pointed to the purse containing oleander seeds: "I will tell the truth without being punished, does the princess know what this is?"

Princess Chunyang sneered: "You still ask me? The Imperial Doctor has already said that this is an oleander seed!"

He Linwan nodded, stepped forward and picked up one and looked at it: "That's right." This is indeed an oleander seed, but it is a yellow-flowered oleander seed. The Yuan family does have a kind of oleander, but it is safflower oleander, although the seeds of these two flowers are poisonous. The symptoms after poisoning are similar, but they don't look the same. ”

Princess Chunyang snorted coldly: "So what, there are more than the two oleanders of the Yuan family in Beijing, if your seeds are not obtained from the Yuan family, maybe they were obtained elsewhere!"

He Linwan shook her head and said seriously: "The princess must not know. Oleander nuts are not easy to survive in the north, and there are basically no people growing them in Beijing, unless they are cultivated in greenhouses. ”

The author of the computer Xiaobai Jun finally figured out today that this is not the reason for upgrading the system, but the hardware of the temperature sensor is broken, and the temperature is inflated, causing a certain program in the system to frantically seize more than 90% of the CPU and cause other programs to run (from the explanation of professionals, but it is not an egg, the author Jun did not understand)

At last...... It's just that a small piece of hardware is broken, and the entire motherboard has to be replaced...... Also drunk. As the author of the turtle, Jun decided to use the computer of the win system.
