Chapter 192: Investigating the cause of death
Looking at the stammering palace maid, the emperor's face darkened more and more: "What is it?" β
"Yesγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» it's Princess Zhaoyang who doesn't want to take the medicine."
"You're lying!" Xing Ruoyou shouted again, rolled a wheelchair and came to the palace maid, threatening word by word, "Princess Zhaoyang is seriously ill in bed, and she doesn't even have the strength to get out of bed, how can she refuse to be served and fed by you?" Say! Who sent you to harm Princess Zhaoyang?! β
After saying that, Xing Ruoyou turned to the emperor and said: "This woman's heart is like a snake and scorpion, she mutilated the princess, please order the emperor to be executed immediately!" β
"Wronged! Slaves γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» slaves don't! The palace maid was so frightened that her face was pale, tears flowed together, thinking that she would die both horizontally and vertically, and she didn't care about the gag orders that Princess Zhaoyang had repeatedly explained before her death, and said intermittently, "Your Majesty, the princess has not been sick, it is γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» pretended." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone sighed.
Imperial Physician Li, who was the oldest, stood up at this time and reprimanded the palace maid: "Hugh has to be untrustworthy!" At the beginning, the doctors of our Tai Hospital all saw Princess Zhaoyang, and they all concluded that she was seriously ill. In order to survive, you slave not only slandered the reputation of Princess Zhaoyang, but also wanted to ruin the reputation of my Tai Hospital, which is simply unlawless! β
After a pause, Imperial Physician Li bowed to the emperor, and said in a stern voice: "I beg the emperor to immediately behead this palace maid and maintain the reputation of Princess Zhaoyang and the Imperial Hospital!" β
The palace maid was shocked by the name before and after, and fainted directly.
The emperor did not give orders, and the Imperial Forest Army outside the gate did not dare to take action.
Xing Ruoyou stepped forward and pinched the palace maid's acupoint to wake her up, changed her previous color, and persuaded her softly: "Girl, you are upright and prosperous, and you don't want to end your life here." If you want to live, you'd better tell the truth what you know. The Holy One is the Emperor of Wisdom, and he will not condemn you for no reason. β
She was the one who let this palace maid dispose of before, and now she is the one who wants to save this palace maid, and everyone doesn't know what medicine is sold in the gourd.
Imperial Physician Li was already dissatisfied with the frequent meritorious service in front of the emperor because of the punishment, and at this time, the old face full of wrinkles sank, and he said in a strange manner: "Doctor, the rules of the palace are clear, how can you arrange it at will!" β
"It's not arbitrarily choreographed!" Xing Ruoyou looked innocent, and then said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, you will not be able to delay long in deciding whether to execute her or not, even if you listen to the palace maid finish telling the truth." β
After a pause, he continued: "Besides, if you want to find out the real cause of Princess Zhaoyang's death, you must get to the bottom of it!" β
The emperor didn't want his daughter to die so unexplained, and although he was heartbroken, he nodded to Xing Ruoyou.
Xing Ruo whispered a few more words in the palace maid's ear, and the palace maid's feelings seemed to be better, so she slowly told the story.
Princess Zhaoyang was unwilling to marry Wu Guo and negotiate peace, so she came up with a trick to pretend to be sick.
The palace maid also didn't know where Princess Zhaoyang got a special medicine, which can make people enter a state of terminal illness after taking it, and she has deceived the doctors several times.
But after that, she was able to recover her health quickly, so she never took the medicine prescribed to her by the imperial doctors, and just slept in bed and pretended to be sick.
According to what the palace maid said, Princess Zhaoyang was fine this afternoon, but when she came in to serve her dinner in the evening, Princess Zhaoyang had already died in bed.
Although the words of this palace maid alone are not convincing, they make everyone have a little bottom in their hearts.
Xing Ruoyou asked the palace maid to take out the medicine that made Princess Zhaoyang "fake sick" for the emperor and the imperial doctors to look at one by one, and then rolled the "wheelchair" to Princess Zhaoyang's corpse, and said a little sternly: "Your Majesty, just now to prove that Princess Zhaoyang is in good health, and this time it is not because she died of serious illness, but because he killed her!" β
Imperial Physician Li, who was the leader, was angry that he had just made a mistake in judgment, and now he heard what Xing Ruoyou said, and stood up unconvinced again: "Doctor, we haven't found any signs of fatal wounds and poisoning from the princess before, why did you go back on your word at this time?" β
"The adults who just said that Princess Zhaoyang was seriously ill and died of weakness haven't said anything yet!" Xing Ruoyou's expression was stern, but he said something that made people vomit three liters of blood, "Your Majesty, the princess has a fatal wound!" β
"Where?" Imperial Physician Li was more anxious than the emperor.
Xing Ruoyou didn't hide it from him, and pointed directly at the extremely fine blood red in the center of Princess Zhaoyang's throat: "This is it!" β
Imperial Physician Li sneered at this time, turned around and began to complain to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the blood red of Princess Zhaoyang's throat has already been discovered before, and it was suspected that it was a very fine murder weapon penetrating to death, but judging from the skin on the surface of the princess's throat, there is no trace of pulling out the murder weapon, and there is no trace of the murder weapon penetrating the back of the neck, and there is no foreign body in the princess's throat, and even the blood is not blocked!" β
After a pause, he looked at Xing Ruoyou coldly: "It can be seen that this is not a fatal wound at all!" β
He thought that if he exposed these, Xing Ruoyou would be terrified because of his lack of words.
But Xing Ruoyou raised his eyebrows and applauded him three times, and then bowed to Imperial Physician Li, and said slowly: "Imperial Physician Li's medical skills are really superb, I really admire it, and the analysis just now is also what I want to say." β
"Humph!" Imperial Physician Li snorted coldly with contempt, "I remember that a certain grass folk just said that the princess's fatal wound was a red dot in the throat!" β
He insisted on this, just to make Xing Ruoyou unable to step down in front of the emperor.
Facing the emperor's increasingly ugly face, Xing Ruoyou still said calmly and slowly: "Your Majesty, the wound on the princess's throat is a person with strong martial arts who penetrated it with a very thin sharp weapon, causing her to suffocate to death. β
After a pause, her plain hand once again only wanted to think about Princess Zhaoyang's throat, and her words suddenly became sharp: "And the sharp weapon is in the princess's throat, and it is not taken out at all!" β
"How is that possible!" Imperial Physician Li denied it for the first time, and even stepped forward to check Princess Zhaoyang's body again.
The other imperial doctors also exchanged ears for a while.
Xing Ruoyou didn't sell it at this time, and said to Imperial Doctor Li: "There is no need to check, although the sharp weapon stayed in the princess's throat and was not taken out, it disappeared long before we arrived." β
She said so that the more everyone listened, the more mindless they became, and Pu Yangyu couldn't help but interject: "Stop worrying, tell me quickly, what was the Fourth Emperor Sister injured by?" β
Xing Ruoyou nodded at Pu Yangyu, turned his "wheelchair" to the dining table in the middle of the room, picked up a cup of tea, and slowly poured it on the ground, his voice was as calm as night: "This is the murder weapon that killed Princess Zhaoyang." β
Water?!
Everyone was stunned again, and Imperial Doctor Li was even more angry: "What nonsense! How can water kill people! β
It's still a little bit of waterγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
