Chapter 224: Clear Clues
"Second prince, the master said that the second prince is a clue?" asked Liuli. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Liuli, can the second prince speak now?"
"Master, the slave maid has gone to see it, but Concubine Shu has been closing the door. However, the slave maid heard that the imperial doctor who went to treat the second prince said that the second prince was too frightened, and he could only prescribe the right medicine after a few more days of observation. ”
After listening, Su Zixu frowned deeply and said: "On the day Yao'er fell into the water, the second prince's reaction was too strange, even if he was frightened by Yao'er falling into the water, it was impossible to be so frightened that he couldn't say anything, unless he saw something more terrifying than this." ”
After speaking, his face sank instantly.
They have been ignoring the second prince as an eyewitness, and now that they think about it, if they want to find out the truth of the matter, they must start from the second prince.
It's normal for children to cry when they see something they're afraid of, but it's not normal to be scared and not be able to speak after so many days. Unless he saw something that day scared him and couldn't bear it.
Liuli's face changed greatly after hearing this, and he said eagerly: "Master, the slave and maid remembered, when the slave and maid rushed to the lake that day, the second prince had not cried, and when the slave and maid asked him where the third prince went, his hand first pointed to the lake, and then pointed in another direction, that direction is opposite to the location of the lake, and the slave and maid seemed to vaguely see a person, at that time, because I was worried about the safety of the third prince, I didn't think too much, and now I want to come ......"
"You mean the second prince pointed in a different direction at that time?"
Liuli nodded and replied affirmatively: "Master, the slave is sure that the second prince pointed in another direction at that time." ”
Su Zixu's face darkened, clenched his fists tightly, and said angrily: "Is the person who attacked him already rampant to the point of committing murder in front of him?"
"Master, the slave will go to the second prince now. After Liuli finished speaking, she pulled her legs and ran out.
Su Zixu scolded: "Liuli." ”
"Master, what's wrong?" Ruri stopped and turned her head suspiciously.
"Don't bother the second prince now. Su Zixu shook his head and explained, "He can't speak now, and even if he asks, he can't ask anything." What's more, the second prince is to blame for his appearance, and Concubine Shu is very protective of her son, and she will not let me get close to the second prince. Wait, it's not too late to go when the second prince is well. ”
The second prince is the child of Concubine Shu, if he really witnessed the whole thing, even if the murderer wanted to destroy the evidence, it would be impossible to attack him. However, she believes that Concubine Shu can see the strangeness of the matter, and according to her position, she can also protect the second prince well.
"Master, it was the slave who was reckless just now. Ruri sighed.
As soon as she heard that the clue was on the second prince, she was anxious to find evidence, and she didn't think about anything else.
"Liuli, during this time, you have to pay close attention to the movements of Concubine Shu and the second prince for the palace, and you can't let people hurt the second prince. ”
If the person who did it dared to openly push Yao'er into the lake in front of the second prince, it would not be impossible to attack the second prince in the future in order to protect himself.
Who is it? So ruthless.
……
Kunning Palace
"Niangniang, it seems that the third prince has been poisoned a lot this time, and even you can't go to visit. As soon as she returned to the palace, Xing'er said slowly while helping Queen Liu into the bedroom.
Empress Liu replied calmly: "There is no cure for the poison of the life-seeking grass, and now that the murderer cannot be found in the harem, the emperor will naturally strengthen his precautions." ”
"But Niangniang is the master of the harem, and she should visit the three princes, but the emperor simply ignores Niangniang's face. Xing'er said dissatisfied.
"Apricots. Queen Liu scolded in a low voice.
". Apricot pursed her lips and screamed.
She just felt sorry for her mother, and she didn't know why, in the past three years, the emperor has ignored the three princes, but some time ago he suddenly paid attention to it, and he moved the palace and found someone to raise the three princes. In the past, the emperor often came to Kunning Palace to visit the eldest prince, but now he goes to see the third prince. Especially like today, the emperor let Niangniang can't get off the stage in front of all the concubines, and she is wronged for Niangniang.
"Xing'er, go and find out about the third prince falling into the water. There is also Mu Chongyi, to check her details. Empress Liu commanded.
"Niangniang doubts Mu Chongyi?" said Xing'er in confusion.
"Her behavior today is very suspicious, and she should be more careful. After all, the poisoning of the three princes is not trivial, and this palace, as the master of the first palace, has the obligation to find out the truth of the matter and give an explanation to the emperor and the three princes. Moreover, it must be found out before the emperor finds out the truth of the matter. Queen Liu sat on the soft couch and said leisurely.
"Mother, why are you doing this. ”
"The poison of the life-seeking grass, even the palace doesn't know where it came from, but it was the third prince who was poisoned, think about it, who will the emperor suspect first?"
Although she knew that the emperor was not the kind of person who was indiscriminate, but the bond she had with Concubine Su had not yet been unraveled, and if those people with a heart wanted to make something and spread it to the emperor's ears, it would be bad for her after all.
"Niangniang, although the emperor has a pimple in his heart for you, he will not doubt you. After all, when something happens to the third prince now, what others think of in advance is you. Apricot replied.
"It's right to prevent trouble, you must help the palace find out about this matter. ”
With that, Queen Liu poured herself a cup of tea and tasted it slowly.
……
"Niangniang, I don't know what happened to the third prince, the emperor turned you and the queen out of the door. ”
"It seems that things are really not good, let people find out tomorrow, is there any medicine in the palace that is useful for Suo Ming Cao, and send it to the third prince. Concubine Qi commanded.
"Mother, you've changed. Yuxi said with a smile and poured a cup of tea for Concubine Qi.
"Changed?" Qi Guifei raised her eyebrows and wondered.
"yes. Yuxi said with a smile while pouring tea, "You didn't care about these things in the harem before. ”
"The third prince is also a poor man, he has no biological mother since he was a child, not to mention all the hardships, and finally has someone to raise himself, and he was poisoned again. Hongu still remembers that he had just been poisoned not long ago, and now he was poisoned for no reason. Concubine Qi sighed, and as she spoke, a trace of sadness unconsciously appeared in her eyes.
"Niangniang, is she thinking of the fifth prince again?" The smile on Yuxi's face had disappeared, and she handed the tea to Qi Guifei and asked.
Concubine Qi took it, took a sip of tea, changed her domineering appearance in the past, and said with a wry smile: "At the beginning, Lezong went because he was poisoned and did not find an antidote. ”
Yuxi was silent, quietly looking at Qi Guifei, the expression on her face was slightly sad.
The fifth son, who was Niangniang's younger brother, was only four years old when he was poisoned, and died because there was no antidote. This has always been a piece of Niangniang's heart, and Niangniang can't let it go.
