Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Zhang also asked Zhu Cong and Zhu Xian to follow.

Only the parties knew the purpose of Empress Dowager Zhang's doing, and Nie Shuyao responded with a smile, just to let the two learn her methods of investigating cases.

Several of them followed Emperor Zhengde to the Spring Palace, and the first thing they saw was Zhang Meiren, who was busy, with tiredness flashing on her face. Seeing that Emperor Zhengde was back again, he hurriedly stepped forward to give a salute.

Nie Shuyao and Nie Tianxi just stood like that, and they had no intention of saluting her at all. Because Emperor Zhengde was present, Zhang Meiren just glanced at them and didn't say anything.

The foreign man should not have entered the harem, but today is special, Nie Shuyao's sister and brother are here to investigate the case. What's more, there are two princes beside them, and outsiders can't say anything.

Emperor Zhengde said solemnly: "Today's things are rotten in my stomach. ”

The surrounding eunuchs and palace maids hurriedly bowed and said yes.

Emperor Zhengde looked at Nie Shuyao and said, "What happens next?" ”

Nie Shuyao said: "Take us to see Liu Meiren." In addition, please ask Zhang Meiren to call the slaves and maids who first found that Liu Meiren was poisoned, and Liu Meiren's personal attendants also called. ”

Zhang Meiren frowned slightly and looked at Zhengde.

Zhengde said: "Do it." ”

As he spoke, he took everyone to Liu Meiren's sickbed, where two imperial doctors were diagnosed and treated, and they saw Emperor Zhengde busy making a big salute.

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand, and walked to the sickbed, and everyone was startled when they saw Liu Meiren's appearance. Especially Emperor Zhengde, he felt that the person in front of him was very strange, and it was estimated that even if Liu Meiren restored her previous appearance, he would not touch her again.

Liu Meiren is eighteen years old, which is the age of a flower. But now the woman on the sickbed is like an eighty-year-old woman. Her plump cheeks were sunken and wrinkled, and her hair had turned gray. The man is unconscious. The hands are exposed like the bark of a tree, and the tendons are exposed.

Nie Shuyao's sister and brother instantly thought of Nie's family, her hands are also like this, I really don't know how she suppressed the poison for more than ten years, she must be living in pain every day.

"Your Majesty, I need information about Liu Meiren and Zhang Meiren before entering the palace, what is the relationship after entering the palace? And how do the slaves and maidservants around her get along? Nie Shuyao said calmly.

Zhengde frowned slightly. Glancing at the other eunuch beside him, "You go and get these." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The eunuch walked quickly.

Zhu Xian asked for what he couldn't say for Zhengde. "Auntie, what then?"

Nie Shuyao said: "I still have something to ask the imperial doctor, and then we will go to the front to interrogate those slaves and maids who are in charge." ”

The two imperial doctors were also very discerning, so they said to Zhengde: "The ministers should know everything. ”

Zhengde nodded. Nie Shuyao asked, "What did Liu Meiren eat to get poisoned?" When will the poison be treated, and when will it be treated? ”

One of the elderly doctors said: "According to Liu Meiren's slave maid, after eating a bowl of bird's nest before going to bed last night, Liu Meiren woke up in pain in the middle of the night, and she was poisoned within an hour. Last night, the doctor on duty at the Tai Hospital was a novice, and when he came to diagnose it, he didn't see the poisoning, thinking that he had eaten unclean food, so he used this medicine.

Liu Meiren was unconscious this morning. His face is getting old. It was Zhang Meiren, who lived in Yingchun Palace with Liu Meiren, who sent someone to call me again, and then it was diagnosed that he was infected with 'dove poison'. ”

Emperor Zhengde also said: "It was also me who was sent by Zhang Meiren to inform me." ”

"I see. Let's go to the front. Nie Shuyao nodded slightly, already having a clue in her heart.

When she came to the front hall, Zhang Meiren had called all the people involved in the case.

A little palace maid had already moved seats for Nie Shuyao and the others, and Nie Shuyao and Nie Tianxi sat at the bottom, quietly looking at the crowd of people.

There are four palace maids, four eunuchs, and a cook who has long been scared. The rest are all Liu Meiren's slaves.

Emperor Zhengde said: "Just ask, I will be an observer with the emperor today." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Then Shu Yao had the courage to crack the case. Nie Shuyao said and looked at Zhang Meiren, "May I ask Zhang Meiren, what were you doing when Liu Meiren drank bird's nest last night?" ”

Zhang Meiren also sat on the side, and when she heard this, she immediately froze, her face changed and tears burst out of her eyes, and she looked at Zhengde and said, "Your Majesty, this is, is she suspicious of the concubine?" The concubine body, the concubine body ....... ”

I couldn't cry when I was talking, I really cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, so pitiful.

This "pitiful" is not pitiful, but pitiful, pitiful, pitiful.

Nie Shuyao sneered in her heart, she couldn't get used to this kind of woman the most, if she had nothing to do with this case, Nie Shuyao didn't believe it. She has seen too many poisoning cases like this, most of them are killers from the people around her out of jealousy, and she starts from here to ensure that one is accurate.

Emperor Zhengde frowned and said, "Speak well!" I asked Shu Yao to check, didn't I just want to give Zhang Meiren a clean slate? ”

Zhang Meiren immediately stopped her tears, "Yes!" The concubine is wrong. Then she said to Nie Shuyao: "The concubine also drank bird's nest last night like Sister Liu, and it was all boiled in one pot." It's scary to think about! ”

"Oh." Nie Shuyao nodded slightly, and asked again, "Who went to Sheng it?" ”

A little palace maid kneeling beside Zhang Meiren said: "The slave silver peony is the bird's nest that the slave and maid served for our beauty, and I also met Liu Meiren's slave maid in the small kitchen who came to serve the bird's nest." ”

Liu Meiren's slave maid immediately answered: "It's the slave maid who holds the bird's nest for our beauty." ”

"Is it the same pot?" Nie Shuyao looked at the person dressed as a cook and asked.

The cook nodded hurriedly and said, "Slave maid Sun Chef, please check your majesty, it is indeed the same pot." ”

In this way, Chef Sun was not poisoned.

Nie Shuyao pondered for a moment and said, "What kind of bowl is used, bring it to me." ”

Her eyes fell on the slaves and maids, and she found that they did not react in particular.

"Yes!" The red bracelet immediately got up and went to get it.

Zhang Meiren's slave Yin Shao glanced at Zhang Meiren and said yes after seeing her nod.

Nie Shuyao glanced at Nie Tianxi, who whispered in her ear, "Sister, when I talked about the porcelain bowl just now, Zhang Meiren's skin seemed to be tight. ”

Nie Shuyao nodded to indicate that she understood.

Not long after, the two slaves came out with the same blue and white porcelain bowls.

Nie Shuyao took the porcelain bowl and looked at it again, and basically understood in her heart, and asked, "What happened when the two of you walked out of the small kitchen with bird's nest?" ”

The two immediately knelt on the ground, and the red bracelet said: "The slave and maid were almost frightened by the black shadow that jumped out of the flower garden when they parted from the silver peony halfway, and it was the silver peony who comforted the slave and maid a few words, and the slave and maid had the courage to return to Liu Meiren's residence." ”

"Black shadows? What kind. When she said this, Nie Shuyao glanced at Zhang Meiren and found that she seemed to be relieved.

The red bracelet said: "The slave maid didn't see it clearly, it looked like a wild cat and a human figure, it was terrible, and the slave and maid were timid since childhood." The slave maid really didn't harm Liu Meiren, please ask Mrs. to check clearly. ”

As he spoke, he kowtowed as if the slate on the ground was not hard.

"Okay, I didn't say you hurt anyone. Let's wait. "Nie Shuyao can't see this scene the most, these little palace maids are really pitiful, and they will be cannon fodder at every turn.

Then he looked at Yin Peony and asked, "When you were comforting the red bracelet, did you put the food box in your hand with the red bracelet, and this food box is also the same shape, right?" (To be continued......)
