Chapter 144: Testifying

Zeng looked at Shen Xiang in a daze, "Lord Principal, what do you mean?" ”

Shen Xiang flicked the light and said in a low voice: "Although the people of Ma Gong are not powerful, she is used to playing tricks, and once the child is gone, she will be angry with others." Guo Jin's heart is spicy, and he is sharp, since he knows you, how can he give up and let it go, so there is only one plan for now, that is, to take refuge in them and transfer the blame to others. As for how to turn around, that is their arrangement, although this is a loss, but it is a way to protect themselves. ”

"What will they do, Lord Principal?" Zeng Ji's heart was pounding, and his palms were sweaty with nervousness.

"I'm sure it's good, there will be a game tomorrow, and we'll know when the time comes." Shen Xiang sighed, "I don't know who the unlucky one is!" ”

Early the next morning, Zeng Ji saw Guo Jin coming to Qingyan Palace with the medicine box, so he trotted in front of him and said in a low voice: "Imperial Doctor Guo, the villain has something to say, please borrow a step." Guo Jin pulled his face, but it could be seen that he was also very nervous.

When the two of them came to the quiet place behind their backs, they looked around a few times before they whispered again: "Lord Guo, the villain didn't hear anything yesterday or saw anything, so adults don't have to worry." I am the mother's henchman, and when I get to the villain, I will be sealed, and I will never miss half a sentence. My lord, the matter has come to this, and the villain is also willing to help the adult and the mother, if there is any command, just say, the villain will do his best. ”

Guo Jin only understood what Zeng Ji meant at this time, and said with a cold smile: "You are still smart, okay, since you say so, I really have one thing for you to do." ”

First, let Sui'er know the news that the little princess was sick, even if she didn't see it in the imperial garden at that time. will also try his best to let Sui'er know. With her as a person, she will definitely come to visit, and when Guo Jin, a native of Ma Gong, and several three people testified at the same time, they said that Sui'er killed the little princess. And so it all came to pass. But Sui'er was persuaded by Sun Jue. Didn't come to Qingyan Palace. When Zhao Yu was sent, the people of Ma Gong had already sent away all the people in the palace, leaving only Guo Jin. When they heard that Zhao Yu outside reported that he was coming to visit on the order of Deng Guiren, Ma Guo and the others were stunned at first, but they could only drive Zhao Yu away logically. Then Zeng Ji saw Zhao Yu coming out outside. ran to the queen of the yin to complain, saying that Zhao Yu killed the little princess. Yin Li hated Zhao Yu and Sui'er to the core. Hearing the news at this moment, it was like grasping a life-saving straw, and immediately sent someone to arrest him.

At this moment, in the Qingyan Palace, the body of the little princess has been covered with white linen. The people of Ma Gong cried to death, and Liu Zhao was exhausted and only sat on the couch. I felt powerless to think, so I had to give orders. Not a word.

This is his first daughter, he passed away without taking a few more looks, and the pain of losing his daughter made Liu Zhao's whole body feel like lead, so heavy that he couldn't lift a finger. On his gray face, there is no luster in his eyes, and he still looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

Yin Li put on a full posture today, first arrested Zhao Yu resolutely, and then began to order the whole palace to listen to the people gather, ready to question one by one, find out the witnesses, the emperor did not speak, let himself. Thinking of the Deng Guiren who fell out of favor, it should be exhausted now, and his hard work finally came to fruition, and his excitement was beyond words.

"Cui Huang, you called everyone to the main hall, the emperor is too sad, it is time to take a rest, inform Taichang, and prepare for the funeral of the little princess."

"Whoa!"

After Cui Huang left, Yin Li walked up to Liu Zhao and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine is out temporarily, there are too many things, not only to deal with the funeral of the little princess, but also to find out the murderer who killed the little princess, appease everyone in the palace, and then find someone to do it to drive away the bad luck in this palace." The emperor doesn't have to be too sad, death is determined by heaven, the emperor is blessed, and there will be children soon. ”

Liu Zhao didn't answer, only said "um" lightly, waved his hand, his eyes fell on the white linen covering the child, and sighed. Yes, it is to drive away the bad luck in the palace, is that curse real? Fulfilled again?

Suddenly, Che Qing walked in from outside, and Shi Li said: "Your Majesty, Deng Guiren asks to see you!" ”

"Sui'er?" Liu Zhao's heart trembled suddenly, although he didn't say anything to anyone, he clearly remembered that the days when he couldn't see Sui'er were thirty-seven days. But is this the time to see Sui'er? He was afraid that as soon as he saw Sui'er, everything he had painstakingly arranged would be in vain, and Sui'er, which he thought about day and night, would make all his thoughts collapse.

But no, Deng Guiren's three words stimulated his spirit, and the urge to hug Sui'er into his arms made him want to stop. "I, Iβ€”"

At this time, the people of Ma Gong suddenly let out a scream, "Drive her out, it's this slut, it's her subordinates who instructed her to kill my little princess, it's her, where is she, I will die with her." ”

Her scream, Liu Liu Zhao came to his senses, and said coldly: "Ma Gong people, you also have to look down on your identity, is this what you should say in the mouth of a well-known girl?" Such a thing that has no evidence and no evidence, and has no spectrum, is still eloquently spoken, and you can say it! ”

"Your Majestyβ€”" The people of Ma Gong saw him talking to Deng Sui again, and they felt a sense of grievance, sadness came from it, and they began to cry loudly again!

"So, Your Majesty, to see or not to see?" Che Qing asked tentatively.

"You, let her go back, I'm not in the mood to see her now!" Liu Zhao was ruthless, gritted his teeth and said.

Cai Lun said at this moment: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, the old minister feels that this matter still needs to be explained by Deng Guiren, otherwise, it will be difficult to make a conclusion." When he came in, he saw the body of the little princess, although he was not a doctor, but he could also understand that the situation of poisoning and hanging was not the same as the appearance of the little princess at this moment, but the scene at that time was so chaotic, but it was really difficult to explain to Liu Zhao, and the arrival of Deng Sui at this moment also gave him a chance to explain.

Liu Zhao turned his head to stare at Cai Lun's eyes, "Chang Shi, now is not the time to see Sui'er!" ”

Cai Lun shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, for the sake of the little princess, why not meet you?" ”

Liu Zhao's face was solemn, he looked at Ma Gongren and the little princess again, and then turned his head to look at Cai Lun again, "Chang Shi thinks I must meet him?" ”

Cai Lun nodded and said, "Your Majesty." Human life is greater than the sky, how many court affairs are like this, and there are countless generations of people who have received it. A Zhao Yu should not be tight, but Deng Guiren may also be implicated, and the emperor just heard Ma Niangniang's words. This desire adds to sin. What's the problem? ”

This is an extremely important word, and it is also a very reasonable word, Liu Zhao straightened up. nodded, turned his head to Che Qing and said, "Xuan Deng Guiren goes to the front hall, and I will go too." ”

Yin Liwan didn't expect Liu Zhao to suddenly come to the front hall, and he was busy taking a group of palace people to give gifts. Long live the mouth, and they all sit down. Liu Zhao said: "Xuan Deng nobles go to the palace!" ”

Yin Li was startled, and the expression on her face was both embarrassed and resentful, and it was indescribably terrifying. But she didn't dare to say anything in front of Liu Zhao. just smiled fakely: "Why did the emperor suddenly ask Deng Guiren to come to see him?" ”

Liu Zhao explained: "It was Deng Guiren who asked to see me, and I felt that it was better to solve the matter in person, so I announced that she was here!" How. The queen doesn't welcome Sui'er? ”

"No, how could it be. It's just that the concubine feels that Deng Guiren's slave has made a mistake, and she, the master, should avoid suspicion, and when the time comes, don't say something more and more unclear! She pointed out that Sang scolded Huai's words, of course Liu Zhao could hear it, he only smiled coldly, ignored her, and kept his eyes on the door, waiting for the figure he had been thinking about day and night to appear.

Hearing the sound of Suosuo, Sui'er's figure appeared at the door, a white fox fur cloak hid her tall and graceful figure, but made her pretty face more bright and moving. Liu Zhao looked at Sui'er stupidly, and felt a sour feeling in his heart, these days, every day of lovesickness, but he can only see Sui'er here, even so, he also feels satisfied.

Sui'er slowly blessed herself, took off her cloak and handed it to Su Lan'er behind her, she was wearing a long aqua blue skirt, a short jacket of one color was decorated with white rabbit fur, and her delicate neck exposed the neckline, which was as white as snow. There is no fat powder on his face, but he is as beautiful as a peach and plum, a pair of watery eyes are staring at Liu Zhao, and his long eyelashes are trembling slightly.

She hadn't seen Liu Zhao for a long time, and there was a slight pain in her heart, but this was not the time to think about this, she raised her eyes to look at her, her eyes were deep and difficult to distinguish, and she said lightly: "Your Majesty, the concubine is here for Zhao Yu's matter, and the concubine wants to know, Yu'er just came to visit on my order, and she didn't even enter the door, how did she become the murderer who killed the little princess?" ”

Yin Li said: "Deng Guiren, there are witnesses to this matter, and you can't deny it." ”

Sui'er looked up and saw Yin Li, when she was like this today, she was wearing a bright red auspicious dress, which looked weird and inexplicable, so she said lazily: "Queen Mother, the concubine didn't deny it, just explained the facts." At that time, the concubine and his entourage were going to visit the people of Su Palace, so they heard that the little princess was seriously ill, and because they agreed to call the child, they asked Zhao Yu to take a look first. The concubine heard Zhao Yu say that there was no one outside the palace when she came, but she heard the cry of the people in the palace, saying that the child had died of breathlessness at that time. What does this have to do with Yu'er? What's more, Yu'er didn't enter the palace at that time, so she let the people of the Ma Palace drive out of the Qingyan Palace, where did this death come from? ”

Yin Li sneered: "Everyone has the mood of the master protecting the slave, but this time you can't deny it, come and pass on the witness!" ”

Zeng Ji was brought up, he knelt down and kowtowed, and when he saw Sui'er staring at him, his heart was empty, and he lowered his head again. Liu Zhao asked: "Let me ask you, you said that Zhao Yu was the murderer, how did you see it with your own eyes, and how did she murder the little princess?" ”

Yin Li said: "You don't have to be afraid, there is this palace to make decisions for you, and the emperor to make decisions for you, what are you afraid of?" Say what you have to say! ”

Deng Sui walked in front of him and said softly: "You told me that the little princess was seriously ill, why did you see Yu'er kill the little princess?" What is your name? I don't blame you, you just have to tell the truth! Her soft voice made Zeng Ji's heart feel guilty, but her life was at stake, so she had to grit her teeth and continue to tell the lie.

"Emperor Deng Guiren, the villain saw Miss Zhao Yu enter the palace with his own eyes, and there was no one else in the palace at that time, and then she hurried out and was bumped into by me, and then I heard the people of the Ma Palace say that the little princess is dead. Who else but her would kill the little princess? (To be continued)
