Chapter 138: Xue Qiao admits to poisoning
Ten years ago, the former Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department, that is, Xue Qiao's father, was executed for the crime of rebellion and rebellion, and he was a member of the Nine Clans.
At that time, Xue Qiao was not yet ten years old.
However, the person who carried out the case at the time reported that there was no longer a living mouth. No one knew that Xue Qiao had survived.
learned from Xiao Shunzi that Liang Yuexin probably knew about Xue Qiao's life experience.
Xue Qiao didn't lie to her, she was indeed already an orphan. But she never mentioned her father, Liang Yuexin never thought that Xue Qiao would have such a tragic past.
Even if it's a rebellion, there's no need to punish the nine clans, right? In Liang Yuexin's opinion, this is a very cruel thing. One person does things for everyone, why should they affect others? But in this day and age, it is a matter of course.
I hope Xue Qiao is not the one who poisoned her!
Xue Qiao was locked in a room alone, and the Queen Mother sat in front of her, with Toya standing aside.
Xue Qiao's eyes blinked, and she didn't know why the Queen Mother wanted to see her suddenly.
"How did you get 'Extremely Poisonous'?" The Queen Mother didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.
Xue Qiao was only stunned for two seconds, but quickly reacted, shook her head and responded: "The slave doesn't understand what the Queen Mother is referring to, and she doesn't know what 'extremely poisonous' is?" ”
"You're still pretending? You weren't lucky that you didn't die under the knife in the first place. was supposed to live a good life, but I didn't expect to sneak into the palace. The Queen Mother shouted.
Xue Qiao frowned, clenched his fists, and closed his mouth tightly without speaking. The Queen Mother said this, did she find out her identity?
Xue Qiao's reaction fell into the eyes of the Queen Mother, and she further determined the guess in her heart. I saw the Queen Mother take two steps forward, stretched out her hand and said, "Take out the antidote!" ”
"The slave really doesn't know what the Queen Mother is talking about."
"Smack-"
The Queen Mother slapped Xue Qiao in the face. Xue Qiao covered her face with her hands and lowered her head, not daring to speak again.
"The person who ordered to kill your father and mother in the first place was a mourner. If you have the ability, you will come to the mourning family, and you will not be allowed to hurt the emperor! ”
The Queen Mother is full of sectarianism, not like an old lady at all. When the emperor was young, the queen mother had been listening to politics for many years. She came up with a lot of ideas.
Xue Qiao finally couldn't help it, and raised her head and shouted, "Do you think I don't want to?" I can't wait to send you all to the underworld. It's just a pity that I couldn't find a chance. ”
finally admitted that Xue Qiao was the one who poisoned him!
"Obediently hand over the antidote. Maybe the mourning family can save your life! The Queen Mother stretched out her hand in front of Xue Qiao. Of course, she didn't intend to spare Xue Qiao's life, so she used the word "maybe".
"Hahaha......" Xue Qiao laughed up to the sky, laughing so much that tears flowed from his eyes.
"There is simply no antidote in this world. Even if I had, I wouldn't hand it over. I want you to watch your precious son die in agony before your eyes, leaving you alone and old without a son to send to you. ”
As soon as Xue Qiao's words came out. The Queen Mother immediately took a few steps back.
"Bold!" Toya stepped forward and hit Xue Qiao with one hand.
"Even if you kill me, you won't get the antidote!" Xue Qiao has long put life and death out of the way, she can help her father and mother avenge, she died without regrets.
"If you toast and don't eat and drink, you won't die well."
"Hahaha...... Xue Qiao was never afraid. ”
Poisoning the emperor was premeditated, and Xue Qiao never thought that he could get out of the way.
The Queen Mother was furious and instructed Toya: "Put her in the prison and use all kinds of punishments until she hands over the antidote." ”
"Yes, Queen Mother."
When the book of the former criminal department was raided. Xue Qiao hid with the help of the housekeeper and avoided a catastrophe. After that, she lived an inferior life. Until I met Liang Yuexin......
"Ahh
"Little Lord, what's wrong?" The autumn water of the vigil rushed in.
"I dreamed that Xue Qiao was covered in blood and kept shouting for me to save her." Liang Yuexin's hand holding Qiushui was still trembling.
"It's okay, it's just a dream." Qiushui helped Liang Yuexin to lie down and said, "Little master, it's still early, let's continue to sleep for a while." ”
"Nope. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw Xue Qiao, who was covered in blood. Liang Yuexin shook her head vigorously.
"Then Qiushui will chat with the little master."
Qiushui didn't understand why the little lord had such a nightmare. In her opinion, isn't it good for Xue Qiao to stay in Kunning Palace? How can it be covered in blood?
Think about it day and dream night night. That's right. The Queen Mother suspects Xue Qiao and wants to investigate thoroughly. Liang Yuexin was extremely frightened after thinking about it, Xue Qiao did have a motive to commit the crime, and the more she thought about it, the more scared she became.
Liang Yuexin's work was not entirely a dream, because Xue Qiao was currently being punished.
The guards of the prison are best at torturing people. The Queen Mother confessed that she had to let the woman speak. Hand over the antidote. Although everyone does not know what the antidote is for and for whom. It's just that according to the queen mother's intentions, she used all the punishment on Xue Qiao.
Xue Qiao was tortured, his finger was pinched and fractured, and his shoulder was burned. But his mouth remained closed, and he didn't say a word.
The guards of the prison were helpless and did not dare to torture her again, so they threw her into the cell. The punishment must also be moderate, it's not good to be killed, and the things that the Queen Mother wants haven't been found yet.
Maybe telepathy is true. Not only did Liang Yuexin dream of Xue Qiao, but even the fat man felt restless and became very anxious.
The fat man is a man who has no temper, but he has been in a particularly irritable mood for the past two days, and he feels like scolding.
A customer came into the store and asked the matchmaker the price of gold, and the fat man quoted the price. The guest was too expensive, so the fat man waved his hand impatiently: "If it's too expensive, let's go." ”
"How do you do this business?" Naturally, the guests left without looking back.
Wen Xuan happened to come to find the fat man and saw this scene.
"What's wrong? Who messed with you? Wen Xuan also felt strange, he had never seen a fat man like this.
"Brother Wenxuan, I ......" The fat man didn't know how to explain, but he was inexplicably irritable.
The emotions of the fat man are written on the face and are easily detected. Wen Xuan thought that the fat man was jealous, because his marriage with Shen Xi made the fat man feel pressured, and he missed Xue Qiao even more.
Wen Xuan smiled, patted the fat man on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go drink with my brother." ”
"Brother Wenxuan, I won't drink." The fat man hurriedly waved his hand.
"And meat to eat." Wen Xuan squinted his eyes and teased him.
As soon as Wen Xuan said this, the fat man cracked his mouth and laughed. Eating meat is his biggest hobby in life.
As soon as the door of the "matchmaker's wife" closed, the two drank wine and ate meat.
Liang Yuexin was relieved not to snow Qiao, and went to Cining Palace many times to ask to see her. Hope to be able to be a part of it. But I went many times, but I couldn't see the Queen Mother. It seems that the Queen Mother is iron-hearted and resolutely refuses to let her participate.
In desperation, Liang Yuexin had no choice but to go to the Qianqing Palace to find Fulin.
Fu Lin was already sick in bed. The spirit is extremely bad. However, when he saw Xiao Xin's arrival, he still smiled.
"Come, come and sit beside me." Fu Lin was half-lying down, and reached out to shake Xiao Xin's hand.
It's just that I haven't seen him for three days, and Fulin seems to have changed as a different person. There was no blood on his face. Coughing constantly, like a terminally ill person.
Liang Yuexin held Fulin's hand, and her heart hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
At this time, Xiao Shunzi walked in, leaned down and whispered something in Fu Lin's ear.
Fu Lin didn't react much, just said lightly: "I know, you can step down." ”
Xiao Shunzi did not retreat immediately, but looked at Liang Yuexin, her lips moved, as if she wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it.
"Get out!" Seeing that Xiao Shunzi is still not leaving. Fulin repeated.
But Xiao Shunzi still did not leave, but knelt down in front of Liang Yuexin with a plop.
"What's wrong?" Liang Yuexin was frightened.
"Ask the little lord to save the emperor." Xiao Shunzi's voice choked when she said this.
"What nonsense? Get out. Fulin rebuked loudly.
"No, let him speak, stand up and say." After speaking, Liang Yuexin helped Xiaoshunzi up.
Xiao Shunzi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said slowly: "Xue Qiao has already admitted to poisoning the emperor, but she refuses to hand over the antidote when she dies." The little lord and Xue Qiao have the best friendship, and ask the little lord to persuade Xue Qiao. ”
Liang Yuexin was stunned, how could this be? Is it really Xue Qiao?
Seeing that Liang Yuexin didn't respond, Xiao Shunzi thought she was unwilling. Then he knelt down again, crying and shouting: "Now only the little master can save the emperor, please save the emperor." ”
Liang Yuexin hurriedly helped Xiao Shunzi up and promised, "I'll give it a try." "I thought about it. And he said, "Give me the 'extreme poison' that you have found." ”
"Not allowed." Fu Lin immediately shouted.
Xiao Shunzi was anxious and begged: "Now only the little master can persuade Xue Qiao." ”
"You just let me go, Xue Qiao was brought into the palace by me after all." Liang Yuexin also can't wait to meet Xue Qiao.
"I don't want you to be embarrassed."
"No, I have to go."
The prison is a place where serious offenders are held, and it is said that there are places where there are people who enter and exit. It can be seen what a terrifying place the prison is.
Liang Yuexin stepped into here, only wanting to see Xue Qiao. I don't care if the surrounding environment is terrible.
Liang Yuexin came by order, and the guards in the prison did not dare to slack off, so they took her directly to Xue Qiao's cell.
At this time, Xue Qiao was lying on the ground. His hair was messy, and there were dried blood stains on his clothes. Liang Yuexin was taken aback, Xue Qiao was like this, it was the same as in the dream.
Liang Yuexin's tears couldn't hold back, she slid down in a roar, and walked towards Xue Qiao tremblingly.
Hearing the voice, Xue Qiao turned around and saw that it was the little master. Surprised and delighted, she wanted to stand up and salute, but the injury was so severe that she couldn't stand up.
"Don't move, lie down." Liang Yuexin stepped forward to straighten Xue Qiao's messy hair.
"Don't cry, little master." Xue Qiao wanted to raise her hand to help Liang Yuexin wipe her tears, but when she thought that her finger was broken, she stopped in mid-air.
Liang Yuexin grabbed Xue Qiao's hand. Her hands were bloody and miserable.
"How can they treat you like that? How can it be? Liang Yuexin couldn't cry anymore.
"They have even done the things of the Nine Clans, so why can't they deal with a woman like me?" Xue Qiao sneered, the pain in her body was really nothing to her.
Liang Yuexin refers to them as prison guards, while Xue Qiao refers to the Queen Mother and the Emperor. They don't think about it consistently.
"I'll take you away now, and let the Imperial Doctor heal you." After speaking, Liang Yuexin picked up Xue Qiao and wanted to take her away.
"No, little lord, I can't get out."
"No, it won't. As long as you hand over the antidote, I will definitely beg the emperor to let you go." I also asked the emperor to let you out of the palace, and the fat man was still waiting for you outside the palace. Liang Yuexin bit her lip and forcibly stopped her tears. She didn't forget that she came today to persuade Xue Qiao.
"No, I'm not going to hand over the antidote." Xue Qiao didn't think about it at all, and refused in one bite.
"No, Xue Qiao, you listen to me......"
"Little Lord."
Before Liang Yuexin could finish speaking, Xue Qiao interrupted her.
Xue Qiao glanced at Liang Yuexin deeply, smiled slightly, and said, "If I can see the little master again before I die, Xue Qiao has no regrets." ”
"What nonsense? I'm not going to let you die. I promised the fat man that I would take care of you. ”
When it comes to the fat man, a trace of guilt will pass in Xue Qiao's eyes. In this life, Xue Qiao lost him after all.
Xue Qiao knew that Liang Yuexin came to persuade her, but how could she be convinced? After a while, Xue Qiao looked at Liang Yuexin and said, "Little master, Xue Qiao has something to say to you." ”
"Let's go out and talk." Liang Yuexin was already anxious. Xue Qiao's injuries are serious and he must see a doctor immediately.
"No, just say it here." Xue Qiao has no plans to go out, she wants to die here.
"Okay, then you can say it."
Liang Yuexin asked Xue Qiao to lie down next to her, trying to make her more comfortable.
"Little Lord, Xue Qiao is sorry for you. It's Xue Qiao who has harmed your life. ”
After saying sorry, Xue Qiao gushed out.
It turned out that when Liang Yuexin was still in Yongning Town, it was Xue Qiao who secretly told the spies sent by Fulin about her.
In Xue Qiao's words, if she hadn't betrayed Liang Yuexin, Liang Yuexin might have walked with the third master and lived an unrestrained life now.
And Xue Qiao did this in the hope that Liang Yuexin would enter the palace, and she would be able to follow her into the palace, so that she would have a chance to take revenge.
It turned out that revenge had been planned by Xue Qiao a long time ago. Liang Yuexin gasped, but she didn't expect to be calculated by Xue Qiao all the time.
"Little master, don't hate me!" Xue Qiao looked at Liang Yuexin with pleading eyes.
Hate? Don't hate! Liang Yuexin likes Xue Qiao more than she hates. And besides, if she doesn't want to enter the palace, who can force her? She was just dissatisfied with Xue Qiao's calculations.
Looking at Xue Qiao's guilty face, Liang Yuexin quipped: "I don't want to think about who your sister Xin is." Can you hurt me for the rest of my life? If I don't like it, why don't I take a leave of absence? Anyway, it's not the first time I've been Huv. ”
Xue Qiao burst out laughing. Luckily, she could still laugh.
"Xue Qiao has one more thing to say." Xue Qiao thought about it and said.
"Say it."
"Xue Qiao never thought of betraying the little master." This sentence has been held in Xue Qiao's heart for a long time, and today I finally have the opportunity to say it.
Liang Yuexin's eyes were moist again, and she reached out to stroke her hair. Liang Yuexin also never believed that Xue Qiao would betray her.
"Xue Qiao left the little master so as not to affect the little master."
The poisoning has been planned for a long time, and it was only implemented after leaving Liang Yuexin, just because she didn't want to affect her. (To be continued.) )
