Liu Yi thought in his heart that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood, and he might not be satisfied with what he asked, but at least he would not be punished too heavily. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These days, those people have endured the torture in his hands, and finally they began to be unable to pry open their mouths and tell them everything they knew. But what they said, not what he wanted to know.

Liu Yi was not interested in some of the secrets of the first emperor's harem, what he wanted to know was who these people were placed in Fengyang Palace by people with hearts. and who instructed him to intend to do evil to the emperor or the imperial concubine.

It was only after he had tortured the men again that some people began to confess to the murder. However, he only asked a few words, and he knew that the two confessors were not really pushers. Because these two have no relatives and no reason, admitting this crime means that they can't stand the punishment, and they just want to die and be free.

But just when Liu Yi thought he couldn't ask anything, one person confessed. It's just that he couldn't have imagined that the one who confessed his guilt was the one he felt was the most unlikely.

Fang Sheng had a disease, and he became ill as soon as he was sentenced. After a few times, Liu Yi was worried that he would die before he could ask anything, so Fang Sheng's punishment was not very heavy.

This is not very heavy, and it is only compared to several other prisoners, in fact, the skin and flesh of the beaten are open, and there is no good meat on the body.

Under such circumstances, Liu Yi was extremely skeptical and disbelievable about Fang Sheng's admission. But what Fang Sheng said made him understand that he really didn't confess because he couldn't stand the punishment.

"Si Gong Mingjian, I was in Liuxian Pavilion that day, in fact, I didn't get sick, I just pretended to be sick. The reason is because before that, I saw the layout inside, in order to push the imperial concubine off the top of the pavilion before anyone reacted. ”

At that time, Liu Yi couldn't believe it, but there are no absolutes in everything, and some things are just more impossible, but they will be the truth. He remembered what he had said to the emperor before, and felt that it was really a slap in the face.

Then Fang Sheng confessed something, that is, although he intended to kill the imperial concubine, he did not mean to harm the emperor. At that time, if the emperor did not stand firm and fell backwards, he would have hugged the emperor to death.

But after saying these words, and then asking who was the instigator, Fang Sheng couldn't answer, shook his head and said yes, and he didn't know who instigated it.

He had been sick for three years, and his first attack was discovered. But the person who found it did not expose him to his face, but secretly gave him a note. Although Fang Sheng didn't know much, he happened to know every word on the note.

It shows that he already knew about his illness, but he was also a eunuch, and he also sympathized with him that he would be kicked out of the palace because of this illness. So he didn't expose him, and he also got some symptomatic medicine for him from time to time. In the past three years, because of those medicines, Fang Sheng's illness has not had many attacks.

At first, Fang Sheng was still uneasy, but after a long time, he actually believed what was said on the note at the beginning. It's just that just a year ago, he gradually realized that his situation was not quite right.

From time to time, I feel dizzy and abdominal pain, not only will my nose bleed inexplicably, but I also began to have chest tightness and blood in my stool. Just then, he received another note.

It said that for such a long time, the medicinal herbs sent were mixed with some poison. After taking it for a long time, this situation will occur, and this poison cannot be cured, so you can only take an antidote to suppress the poison and relieve the toxicity in the body.

At this point, Fang Sheng knew that it was too late for him to regret it, so he had to follow the instructions of the note man. Because not only did he not want to die, but he also did not want to die after being tortured by poison.

And he was terrified for a year, and often when he couldn't get the antidote one day, he received his first mission. That is, after being assigned to Fengyang Palace, the imperial concubine was quietly removed.

Of course, Fang Sheng knew that if he made a move on the imperial concubine, he would not end well. But if he doesn't do it, he will definitely die, and if he does it to the imperial concubine, as long as he is not discovered, he can still have a chance of survival.

It's just that even if he enters Fengyang Palace, he is a eunuch, but he can't get close to the palace concubine at all. But the note man is urging more and more powerfully, and even the amount of antidote is getting less and less.

When he saw such a high Liuxian Pavilion that day, he had the idea of doing something in his heart. It is not right to say that the illness is all fake, although he had signs of illness at that time, it was not very serious, but it could be controlled.

At that time, he was not sober enough to make such a foolish decision, thinking that as long as the imperial concubine died, then everything would be over. But I didn't expect that no matter whether I succeeded or not, I would have no way to live.

These days he struggled to admit it, just wanting to live a few more days. Because of the torture of those poisons, he was more resistant and endured than the people around him, but as time passed, he also knew that he had reached the end of his life.

In the past few days, Fang Sheng had already discovered his body and started that familiar torture again, because he hadn't taken the antidote for a long time.

This is the reason why Fang Sheng is willing to confess.

Liu Yi immediately invited Imperial Doctor Mo, who had a hand in poison, to check Fang Sheng's pulse and probe the poison on Fang Sheng's body. Imperial Doctor Mo really discovered the problem of Fang Sheng's body, but he didn't know the origin of this poison.

This poison is unheard of.

At this point, Liu Yi understood that he didn't know more things from Fang Sheng, so he went back and forth. Because Fang Sheng's target was the imperial concubine, he was also relieved in his heart.

If the target is the emperor, it will be a terrible thing. But if the person who wants to murder is the imperial concubine, then the matter is much simpler, it is nothing more than that someone in the harem is jealous.

Or a certain family, in order to pave the way for their daughter to enter the palace, only to think of doing something to the imperial concubine. And to be able to place someone in the palace to select chess pieces three years ago must have been done by a certain family.

It's true that the more people don't want to die, the easier it is to die.

In Liu Yi's view, when Fang Sheng was targeted a few years ago, he was already doomed. Even if there is no such thing as an imperial concubine, the people behind it will also force Fang Sheng to death for something else.

After Emperor Qiyuan saw Liu Yi, he understood that things had already come to an eyebrow. It's just that he wants to go to the court early now, so naturally he can't ask at this time, and he can't know the inside story until after the next dynasty.

However, after the next court, after hearing Liu Yi's reply, Emperor Qiyuan immediately darkened his face and asked in a deep voice: "There are thieves who want to attack the imperial concubine, and you have been interrogating for so many days, but you haven't even noticed a single hair of the people behind the scenes?"
