Chapter 175: Poisoning

Entering the noon gate, the two of them did not stop all the way, and soon went out of the Shenwu Gate, opposite the Shenwu Gate was the Taihe Gate, and the two guards who were guarding outside the Shenwu Gate before were nowhere to be found. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Chi Langyi walked very fast, Yu Nianniang exercised every day, but she didn't lag a few steps behind.

After the square, enter the Taihe Gate, the first hall is the Taihe Palace, behind the Taihe Hall is the Zhonghe Palace, and the last is the Baohe Palace.

After entering the Taihe Gate, Chi Langyi headed in the direction of the South Three Institutes. Yu Nianniang went to the Baohe Hall alone. In order not to attract attention, she chooses a path that is sparsely populated. There are a lot of trees in the surrounding garden, the lights are dim, and it is not easy for people to see the place where the shade is thick.

Yu Nianniang glanced at the Wuying Palace, which was as bright as bright in the dark night, and she bypassed the dimly lit flower garden and went up to the corridor of the Zhonghe Hall. As soon as he walked to the Zhonghe Palace, he met Wei Qiyu in a hurry.

When he saw Yu Nianniang, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and asked with a slap on his face: "Where did you run to, everyone is looking for you!" ”

Yu Nianniang was stunned.

Wei Qiyu looked at her with a serious face, and asked a series of questions: "When did you leave?" Why don't you say hello? What the hell did you do? Alone or with whom? The palace is too big, do you remember where you have been? Did you meet anyone on the way? ”

Yu Nianniang looked at him: "What happened?" ”

"The third prince was suddenly poisoned." Wei Qiyu looked serious and carefully observed Yu Nianniang's expression: "You tell me the truth, where have you been for so long?" ”

"Outside the noon gate." Yu Nianniang said with a frank expression.

Wei Qiyu's tense expression gradually eased, and he frowned: "It's okay, why are you running outside the noon gate?" Then his brows furrowed again: "It's okay, there are few people over there." ”

As he spoke, he looked around: "I don't have time, I'll talk as I walk." ”

Yu Nianniang nodded.

I didn't expect that the third prince would be poisoned when I left here, what a coincidence!

"The third prince didn't know what he ate, he returned to the Baohe Hall from Taihe Gate, and something happened after a while, and the doctor diagnosed the pulse, saying that he had eaten something unclean, and he didn't know what it was now...... There were a lot of people tonight, and I went to Taihemen to watch the fireworks, and the emperor is very angry now...... Everyone is suspicious, but you are the only one who is not here, and I am about to find most of your palace...... Since it's none of your business, you answer truthfully, by the way, are there any guards who see you along the way? ”

"Yes." Yu Nianniang nodded.

The guards on patrol saw her, but those people didn't seem to know her, and when she went out, there were two guards in Shenwumen, but when she came back, she didn't see her.

Soon arrived outside the Baohe Palace, the two stopped talking, Wei Qiyu entered the hall first, and Yu Nianniang followed closely.

The emperor in the palace sat on the throne with a dark face and the queen, only a few ministers of the court were in the palace, Yu Taifu, Zhenguo Gong, General Protector, Ning Anhou, Wu Hou Ye, Hubu Shangshu Wang Guo'an, Rite Langzhong Wang Xingshi, Chi Langyi didn't know which way to go, and he actually arrived at the Baohe Hall one step ahead of Yu Nianniang. and Wei Hongshan.

And the first thing Yu Nianniang noticed was the person kneeling in the center of the hall, Wang Lingying. She looked panicked, her face was pale, her tears had not yet dried, she lowered her head slightly for a while, and looked at Wang Xingshi and Wang Guo'an on the side in a panic for a while, but unfortunately neither of them looked at her.

When Yu Nianniang came in, she heard Wang Xingshi in the Ministry of Rites say: "Although the little girl is a little pampered on weekdays, she never dares to be presumptuous in front of the princes, and she has no courage to harm the three princes. Wang Xingshi knelt on the ground.

The emperor stiffened his face, ignored Wang Xingshi, and stared at Yu Nianniang who was kneeling and kowtowing expressionlessly, with a faint murderous aura in his eyes.

The emperor didn't speak, and Yu Nianniang didn't get up.

Wei Qiyu replied to the emperor: "Back to the emperor, Weichen met Miss Yu outside the Zhonghe Palace. ”

Dali Siqing on the side got the emperor's approval, looked at Yu Nianniang very seriously and asked, "Miss Yu, where did you go just now?" ”

Yu Nianniang raised her head, the emperor on the throne had cold eyebrows and expressionless face, staring at Yu Nianniang without anger and self-authority.

The majesty of the Son of Heaven is not something that anyone can withstand. Wang Lingying on the side shrank back.

Yu Nianniang felt a little depressed around her. She lowered her eyes and replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, back to the queen's mother, the maiden entered the palace for the first time, and felt that the palace was particularly beautiful, so she went to the palace for a turn." ”

"Where?" Dali Temple Qing Road.

"Outside the noon gate!" Yu Nianniang replied truthfully.

What's getting better outside the noon gate in the big night? This excuse sucks when you hear it!

All the ministers looked at Yu Nianniang expressionlessly, and a fire rose in Wei Hongshan's chest.

Dali Siqing frowned, and said in a bad tone: "What are you doing outside the noon gate?" There's no garden pool over there! ”

"When I entered the palace, I was terrified, I didn't dare to look at random, I only knew that the building was exquisitely shaped along the way, the glass was shining, and the palace was majestic, so I wanted to see it, so I went." Yu Nianniang knelt on the ground, staring at a floor tile in front of her, and replied with a respectful and serious face.

The answer is passable, but not very convincing.

"Then why don't you go to the back court?" Dali Temple Qing Road.

The palace is divided into the back court and the outer court, the back court refers to the Kunning Palace, the harem including the Qianqing Palace, and the outer court is the palaces other than the Baohe Palace.

The back court is complicated, with three palaces and six courtyards, four or five east and west, countless gardens, lakes, and streams, even if people who have entered the palace go to the wrong place, they often have them.

"I'm afraid of getting lost." Yu Nianniang said.

"And what do you see?" The emperor suddenly said coldly.

The king is best at hiding his joy and anger, although the emperor did not show how angry he was in his words, but his indifferent expression and the killing intent flashing in his eyes made people's hearts tremble.

Dali Siqing immediately shut up.

Yu Nianniang kowtowed, straightened her body even higher, lowered her head and replied: "Back to the emperor, the night is too dark, the lights are too dark, and I can't see anything clearly." ”

"Humph!" The Emperor snorted coldly.

Dali Siqing's eyelids jumped, looked at Yu Nianniang's expressionless face, and said sternly: "Yu Nianniang, if you don't explain your previous whereabouts clearly, the third prince is poisoned, then you are the biggest suspect!" ”

Yu Nianniang raised her head, looked at Dali Siqing, and said slowly: "My lord, the fireworks were finished in the middle of the day, and then I went out of the Taihe Gate, and met a team of patrolling guards on the way. How can I have time to harm the three princes. ”

"That's just your statement, whether that's the case or not, we'll find out until you've asked the guards. And you can come back immediately after leaving the Shenwu Gate. After a pause, Dali Siqing said again: "How long did it take you to return to Taihemen?" ”

"It's almost dark when I come back!" Yu Nianniang said.

Dali Siqing raised his eyebrows: "An hour? That is to say, you went out of the noon gate, and then returned to Taihemen from the noon gate, but it took half an hour each, you are a girl's house, can you go back and forth in one hour? ”

"Adults don't know, the people's health since they were young, not good, they have to take a walk every day, and after arriving at the general's mansion, this habit has not changed." Yu Nianniang said.

Dali Siqing looked at Wei Hongshan.

Wei Hongshan immediately faced the emperor and replied respectfully: "This is indeed the case. ”

"That's good." Dali Temple Qing said, originally she thought that Yu Nianniang told the truth when she was scared and scared by a little girl, but who knew that Yu Nianniang said that she went to the noon gate, not to mention the emperor, even he didn't believe it. And when he answered his question, he actually looked at the truth.

Dali Siqing suddenly felt that Yu Nianniang was not simple.
