Chapter 184: The First (II)
Heavy, presumably Zhong Shanggong knew it in his heart. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Slave maid...... What the slave said is true, everything is the concubine "Concubine Liu is a relative of the palace, and the palace should take care of her, does this mean that even the incense she burns in the palace has to be kissed again to see if it is poisonous?" ”
Xiao Junwan turned to Emperor Taihong and said: "Your Majesty, Zhong Shanggong of the Shanggong Bureau of the Inner Mansion is already waiting outside, and the incense is made by the people of the Shanggong Bureau. ”
When Zhong Shanggong walked into the hall, Xiao Junwan saw a trace of worry on Concubine Shu's face, but Jiang was still old and spicy, and in front of the witness, Concubine Shugui's ability to deal with chaos was unmatched.
Zhong Shanggong trembled and saluted, but his eyes looked at Concubine Shu from time to time.
Xiao Junwan said coldly: "In front of Your Majesty, you still haven't recruited from the truth." ”
"Your Majesty...... Your Majesty. Zhong Shanggong slurred, and when the words came to his mouth, he still didn't dare to speak.
Xiao Junwan had already expected that Zhong Shanggong would be afraid of Concubine Shu's presence, and had previously written down Zhong Shanggong's confession and had it drawn by him. Xiao Junwan then presented Zhong Shanggong's confession.
After Emperor Taihong looked at it, he was furious: "What you said in your confession is true? ”
Xiao Junwan said again: "The mastermind and the instigated, which crime is more committed by the slave and maid, otherwise give the slave and maid a hundred guts, and the slave and maid will not dare to murder Concubine Liu." ”
"How dare you slander this palace!"
"Guifei Niangniang, now that someone is here, Niangniang still thinks she is slandering Niangniang?"
"Xiao Junjuan, you can buy a female official casually, it's like framing the palace?"
"How dare the slave and maid frame Niangniang, since Your Majesty ordered the slave and maid to find out the death of Concubine Liu, the slave and maid should do their best to catch the real murderer."
Concubine Shu sneered: "Just based on her words, you assert that it was this palace that instructed her to poison?" ”
"My sister is so anxious to defend herself, isn't she a thief."
Concubine Hui walked in slowly and saluted: "See Your Majesty, the concubine heard that the concubine refused to admit her guilt, and she was in a hurry, and she came in without waiting for the communication, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive her sins." ”
"How dare you instruct her to slander this palace!"
"Sister's words are serious, my sister is busy investigating the case, but she doesn't have the leisure time to slander her sister, not to mention that the truth of the incense was discovered by Xiao Shangyi first, and she instructed the slander, where to start?"
After some argument, Emperor Taihong seemed to have a headache, and said sharply: "Enough, whether Concubine Liu's death has anything to do with you." ”
"Your Majesty, the concubine has been wronged."
"Your Majesty, that's the case, that incense was done by the people in the inner mansion of the concubine Niangniang, and now the human and material evidence is there, and I hope Your Majesty will make a clear decision."
"This palace has never ordered them to poison the incense!"
"Your Majesty, the crown princess has arrived."
"Biography."
Su Sheng came in in a hurry, and when he saw Concubine Shugui's angry face, he knew that the situation in the palace was not optimistic.
Su Shengxue owed: "Erchen...... I've seen my father. ”
Xiao Junwan glanced at Su Shengxue, who was too young to be as calm and calm as Concubine Shu, and her salute was a little hasty and flustered.
"The crown princess came just in time, I don't know that Concubine Liu died of incense poisoning, can the prince know?"
"What incense poisoning, how can that incense be poisonous!"
"So, the crown princess knows what kind of incense the slave is talking about?"
Concubine Hui smiled and said: "Xiao Shangyi just mentioned a sentence of incense, and the princess couldn't wait to explain, she must be very clear about the origin of that incense." ”
Concubine Shu was anxious: "Shengxue ......"
When people are in a hurry, it is inevitable that they will be busy getting rid of their sins and not being careful, Xiao Junwan is secretly happy in her heart.
Concubine Hui said happily: "Don't worry, concubine, the concubine just said a word." After that, he glanced at Xiao Junwan again and motioned for her to continue.
Xiao Junwan said again: "Since the crown princess knows about ......"
Su Shengxue interrupted Xiao Junwan's words: "When did I say that I knew?" Fang said that the incense is poisonous, I was surprised for a moment, and I just answered casually. ”
Xiao Junwan was not in a hurry or annoyed, and said lightly: "Of course, you can not admit what Niangniang said herself, but Zhong Shanggong has already explained that it is the noble concubine Niangniang, but she added something to the incense." ”
"You are so bold that you dare to slander the concubine! When did the concubine Niangniang order you to poison the incense? ”
Zhong Shanggong's face turned pale with fright: "Slave maid...... Slave ......"
Xiao Junwan said coldly: "Zhong Shanggong, if your testimony is false, you should be punished by ripping out your tongue according to the law!" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, it is indeed the concubine Niangniang who instructed the slave maid to do this, please ask Your Majesty to be gracious."
Su Shengxue hurriedly said: "Shut up, the concubine only let you add musk to the incense, when will you poison Concubine Liu to death in the incense!" ”
With Su Shengxue's sentence, Xiao Junwan's heart suddenly became happy, and it was in vain that she took a lot of effort to talk about it, and Su Shengxue said so easily.
Xiao Junwan looked at Concubine Shu and said, "Even the crown princess has admitted it, and the concubine still wants to shirk it?" ”
"Yes, this palace ordered someone to add musk to the incense, but this palace didn't let them poison it, and Concubine Liu's death has nothing to do with this palace."
"So, the mother herself admits to adding musk to the incense?"
Adding musk to the incense is just an attempt to kill the emperor's heir, which is much lighter than the crime of murder, so Su Shengxue will naturally help Concubine Shu get rid of the crime, and if she is not careful, she will fall into the trap in Xiao Junwan's words.
"This palace didn't kill Concubine Liu, don't think about deducting all the charges on the head of this palace."
"Slaves don't dare." Xiao Junwan said to Emperor Taihong, "Your Majesty, Concubine Shugui Niangniang has admitted that it was she who ordered the Inner Mansion to add musk to the incense used by Concubine Liu Niangniang to worship the gods. ”
"I never thought it would be you......"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is at fault, but the concubine has not harmed Concubine Liu's life."
Xiao Junwan instructed Imperial Physician Zhang: "Imperial Physician Zhang, you will repeat what you said before. ”
"Yes." Imperial Physician Zhang said, "Back to Your Majesty, the incense burned by Concubine Liu does have musk added to it, and Niangniang worships the gods every day, and frequently smells the musk, so that the emperor's heir in the womb is very ill and hurts the mother's body." ”
"Joke, musk can still kill people?"
"Niangniang didn't want to hurt Concubine Liu's life, but the incense with musk harmed the imperial heir in Concubine Liu's womb, the imperial heir is damaged, and Concubine Liu's mother can still be safe?"
"Even so, at most, if you slip tires, why die in the middle of the night?"
Concubine Hui pretended to be sad: "The concubine is still excusing herself, but poor Concubine Liu and the little prince lost their lives in vain and did evil." ”
When Emperor Taihong heard this, he was even more furious: "How can you have such a vicious mind, and you won't even let go of the lives of Concubine Liu's mother and son!" ”
Concubine Shu was in a hurry, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, what the concubine said is true, it must be that Concubine Hui and Xiao Junwan bought the imperial doctor's nonsense, then the musk will never hurt Concubine Liu's life." ”
