Chapter 606: The Secret on the Pill
Everyone was stunned, only to feel that Qiao Zhao's words were too unbelievable, and only Shao Mingyuan and Jiang Yuanchao looked calm.
The two had a rare consensus at this moment: Zhao Zhao (Miss Qiao) could stand here well, and it didn't seem strange that something bizarre would happen.
"Miss Li, let's talk about it, how can these pills prove your innocence?" Jiang Wu said in a gloomy tone.
Qiao Zhao stretched out his finger and pointed to the pills in the box: "Just now, the imperial doctor distinguished these pills by carving a cross on the pills that contain highly poisonous, but in fact, they can be separated without lettering at all." ”
Hearing Qiao Zhao mention himself, the Imperial Doctor couldn't help but speak: "How can this be distinguished? These pills are the same shape, size, and color. ”
"No, these non-toxic pills also have words on them, right here. Qiao Zhao picked up a non-poisonous pill and presented it to everyone.
The pill is not big, and the handwriting on the top of the pill is even smaller, Jiang Shiyi first took it and took a serious look, and then was picked up by Jiang Yuanchao, and it was quickly passed around, and everyone present saw the handwriting on the pill, which was a small "three".
Qiao Zhao took out the remaining pills and lined them up on the table in order: "Eleventh Master, can you read out the small words on the top of the pills?"
Jiang Shiyi glanced at Qiao Zhao deeply.
Qiao Zhao smiled and spit out two words: "The truth." ”
Jiang Shiyi's voice was calm and unwavering: "Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty, one, two、...... Eight, nine. ”
When he read "Nine", just after reading the last pill, Jiang Shiyi stopped.
Everyone became more and more confused, and they couldn't figure out what the girl in front of them was selling.
Qiao Zhao didn't explain immediately, but asked, "The Metropolitan Governor was poisoned and died, who was the first to find out?"
Jiang Shiyi looked at Hongying, the maidservant who was waiting for Jiang Tang's living.
Hongying lowered her head and said, "It was the maid who found it first." The Governor was not accustomed to being served closely, so at night after making the bed for the Governor, the maid went to rest, and the next morning the Governor came to serve the Governor to wash, and found that there was no movement in the house. At that time, the maid felt strange, because the governor was used to practicing boxing in the morning, and although he didn't practice boxing for the sake of the eldest girl in the past few days, he would still get up at that hour. It was so unusual that day, and when the servant came in to take a look, she realized—"
Hongying's face was frightened, and her tone trembled: "I found that the Governor of the Great Governor was bleeding from the seven orifices, and he had already died of anger......
Hongying couldn't go on and sobbed.
"The Metropolitan Governor takes medicine every night, and you are responsible for preparing warm water, so do you watch the Metropolitan Governor take the medicine with your own eyes every time?" Qiao Zhao asked again.
Hongying shook her head: "The Metropolitan Governor is not used to having others in the room, and the maid will leave every time he arranges everything." ”
"I'm going to the governor's room. Qiao Zhao looked directly at Jiang Shiyi.
Jiang Yuanchao looked at it in his eyes and smiled bitterly in his heart.
In her heart, he is probably not as trustworthy as Brother Eleven.
"Miss Li, what are you selling?" Jiang Wu couldn't help but say.
Qiao Zhao smiled: "You have the determination to kill each other for the death of the Grand Duke, don't you have the patience to wait for me to find out the truth?"
Qiao Zhao's words made the faces of the Jinliang guards hot.
"Follow me. Jiang Shiyi glanced at Qiao Zhao and strode forward.
Qiao Zhao didn't forget to put away the pills and raised his heels.
Shao Mingyuan walked beside her, looking inquiring.
"Don't worry, we'll be able to get away from this mess soon. Qiao Zhao said softly.
Shao Mingyuan smiled doting and helpless.
With such a capable fiancée, he can probably eat "soft rice" with peace of mind.
There were two brocade guards standing in front of the door of Jiang Tang's room, and when they saw everyone coming over, they subconsciously tensed their bodies.
"Open the door. Jiang Shiyi said coldly.
The two Jinbian guards couldn't help but look at Jiang Wu.
Jiang Shiyi frowned, and asked concisely, "Deaf?"
Jiang Yuanchao tugged at the corners of his lips.
As soon as the stepfather died, their brocade scales really quickly fell apart.
"Open the door. Jiang Wu commanded, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.
The stepfather has been in control of the Jinliang Guard for decades, and it can be said that the majesty has penetrated into the bone marrow of every Jinlanwei.
After the death of the righteous sister, the father-in-law set aside Jiang 13 and dispersed the power between him and Jiang 11, even if Jiang 13 was the son-in-law of the father-in-law, and stayed in the position of second-in-command for nearly a year, as soon as the father-in-law's order came out, except for a very few henchmen, those boys would still honestly listen to the father-in-law's orders.
The door slowly opened, and Qiao Zhao walked in.
Xu has been breathable for a long time, and there is a peculiar smell in the room, Qiao Zhao didn't care at all, and quickly walked around the room before stopping at the table.
On the table is a teapot painted with a magpie and three teacups of the same suit.
Qiao Zhao stretched out his hand and picked up the teapot and looked at it, playing with the teacup and asked calmly, "Is the cup that the Governor drank water from broken?"
Hongying looked surprised: "The girl is right, when the maid came in, she saw the Governor lying crooked on the side of the bed and bleeding, and the cup fell to the ground and there were broken porcelains everywhere, and those broken porcelains were later cleaned up by the maid. ”
Qiao Zhao nodded, signaling that he understood.
"The truth!" Jiang Shiyi said coldly.
"Patience!" Miss Jo choked back with two words.
Jiang Shiyi's thin lips were pursed and he didn't speak.
"Miss Li, we are patient, but we are not idle. If Miss Li still can't say why, then Jiang can only think that you are messing around. ”
Qiao Zhao glanced at Jiang Wu, cleared his throat and said, "First of all, let's say one thing, the Grand Governor didn't take the medicine I prepared at all that day. ”
"Evidence!" Jiang Shiyi was still concise and to the point.
"First of all, ask the Jinlanwei who came to me to get the medicine, which day he got the medicine after the year. ”
Jiang Shiyi immediately summoned the Jinbian guard to ask.
"It's the twelfth day of the first month. ”
Listening to the Jinlan Guard's answer, Qiao Zhao nodded: "Yes, it is the twelfth day of the first lunar month." The pills I prepared for the Governor were based on a course of 28 days, and the ingredients of each pill were actually slightly different as the body changed every day after taking the pill, so the date was engraved on the top of the pill. ”
As soon as Qiao Zhao said this, everyone suddenly understood the meaning of those numbers on the pill.
Was it the date?
Jiang Yuanchao glanced at Qiao Zhao deeply.
"The Governor began to take pills on the night of the twelfth day of the first lunar month, taking one pill every night, and on the night of the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, that is, the day when the Governor was poisoned and died, he did not take the pill with the word 'twenty-eight'. ”
Qiao Zhao said, handing a pill to Jiang Shiyi.
Jiang Shiyi stared at the small pill, and suddenly understood the meaning of the pill being able to speak.
He was shocked and shocked in his heart, and his gaze at Qiao Zhao deepened.
Qiao Zhao glanced around at everyone and said lightly: "The Metropolitan Governor knows the meaning of the numbers on the pill, and he will definitely take the pill strictly according to the date, since this pill engraved with 'Twenty-Eight' is still there, it means that he definitely did not take the pill on the twenty-eighth night of the first month!"
