Zhao Fangding must be nervous, he remembers not badly, according to the record contact of several pages before and after, the torn pages of paper are copied one by one on the white paper, but when writing a certain line, the hand 19 stopped, and it took a while to start writing again, solemnly writing the words "On the second day of the second month of February, Ma Yuanchen took two taels of aconitum from the imperial doctor".

Looking at this line of words, Liu Hu's pupils shrank, he and Zhao Fang both thought of it together, and there was nothing wrong with the rest of the records, but this one record alone may affect the poisoning of the second elder brother, is this the purpose of tearing the paper?

"That little rabbit cub actually dares to play tricks under our noses!" Zhao Fang suddenly scolded angrily, Xiao Chengzi is undoubtedly the most suspicious, if it is he who tears the paper, then it may also be him who steals the snake venom, but he doesn't know who he is responsible for.

"Father-in-law, in my opinion, this matter must be heard by the heavens, otherwise once the upper authorities check it out and find that the booklet has been torn, I am afraid that the father-in-law will be blamed." Liu Hu said.

Zhao Fang waved his hand distraughtly, "Our family can save it, and we will go to the emperor after dawn tomorrow, as for Xiao Chengzi's side, our family will also pay attention." Alas, there have been endless things in the palace recently, and I don't know what it's for. ”

The night seemed to be extraordinarily long, with one darkness after another, and it seemed that there was no end in sight......

Liu Hu returned to Chengqian Palace, but saw that Hongli was still waiting in the same place, and immediately told him about the things one by one, and told him not to worry too much, the book was torn up is certainly the possible evidence of destruction, but the corresponding doubts are also more obvious, I believe that presented to the emperor, he will inevitably find out the strange, as long as he follows this line and continues to investigate, he will be able to prove Concubine Xi's innocence.

Hongli left at this time, but then turned back after a while, this time it was for Liu Hu to try to go to the Tai Hospital to inquire about who the person named Ma Yuanchen entered the palace as a Tai Doctor.

Liu Hu wrote it down carefully, and after the shift change at dawn on the second day, he went to the Tai Hospital, where Imperial Doctor Liu was reading the medical book, and he didn't care when he came in, until Liu Hu went around the circle and asked about Ma Yuanchen's guarantor, he raised his head in surprise, "It's strange, there have been two people who have come to ask about this this morning." ”

Liu Hu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, "Dare to ask Imperial Doctor Liu, who else is there?" ”

Imperial Physician Liu put together the medical book and replied, "It's Gonggong Su in front of the emperor." ”

Hearing this, Liu Hu suddenly understood, it must have been Zhao Fang who returned the matter to the emperor, and the emperor was suspicious of Ma Yuanchen and sent Su Peisheng to inquire.

"Imperial Doctor Liu, what is this guarantor ......" Liu Hu asked cautiously.

Imperial Physician Liu's eyes flashed, and he said: "It's Imperial Physician Deng, Imperial Physician Ma is a disciple of Imperial Physician Deng outside the palace, and he has been studying medicine for seven or eight years. ”

When Imperial Physician Liu's words fell into Ling Ruo's ears several times, the question that had been confusing her was finally solved, since there was such a relationship, then Imperial Physician Ma must have been instructed by Imperial Physician Deng to go to the imperial pharmacy to ask for aconitum, and Imperial Physician Deng could use this aconitum and the stolen snake venom to make poison to harm Hongshi.

"Master, does this prove that you didn't poison the second elder brother?" There is a joy that is rare in the past few days.

Ling Ruo lowered his head and smiled bitterly, looked at the silk thread that was hooked in his fingertips and said, "How can it be so easy, these are just one-sided speculations, at most it is possible, and it is not evidence at all." "Nian was afraid that someone would find evidence, so he destroyed everything that could be destroyed early in the morning, and he refused to leave even that line of records about the use of aconitum aconitum.

When Shui Yue heard this, she couldn't help but be disappointed, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then what we do will become useless."

"You can't say that." Shui Xiu continued: "At least, the emperor also suspects the things we suspect, and sent Father-in-law Su to investigate, as well as that little Chengzi, I believe that the emperor will be able to prove the innocence of the master." ”

"I hope this day will come sooner, I have been locked up all day, I always feel panicked, and I don't know what happened to Mo'er." As soon as she said this, Shui Yue couldn't sit still, they hadn't heard from Mo Er for a long time, and they were really afraid that those people in the Shen Criminal Division would be ruthless, and Mo Er's life would be difficult to save.

After talking for a long time, Ling Ruo accidentally saw An Er talking to Yang Hai outside, the two frowned from time to time, and said one by one, "What's wrong?" ”

Seeing Ling Ruo asking, An'er had to come in and say, "Back to the master, the slave maid found a dead cat outside the teahouse, and her body was rotten, and she wanted to ask Gonggong Yang to help bury it, so as not to alarm the master." ”

Dead Cat ......

Ling Ruo's heart moved, and he hurriedly said, "Quickly take the palace to take a look, and you can call Nanqiu over." ”

Although An'er didn't know what to look at about a dead cat, she didn't dare to ask more, and took Ling Ruo all the way to the outside of the teahouse, and saw a hideous cat on the ground, Chengqian Palace never raised cats, and wanted to jump in from other places, the hair on the side of the cat's mouth was bloodstained, and there was a pool of blackened blood beside it.

After waiting for a while, Nanqiu arrived, and she didn't sleep well for a moment in the past two nights, her eyes were as red as rabbits, and she saluted: "Master, are you looking for a slave?" ”

"I remember you said that the first cup of tea that was brewed at that time was poured out, right?"

"Yes, the slave remembers that she threw it on a cat." Speaking of this, she glanced at the dead cat on the ground and said, "It's a little like this one, isn't it ......?"

Ling Ruowei nodded, and in her surprised look, she raised her hand to pull out a silver hairpin from An'er's hair, and inserted it into the already hardened cat corpse, and when she pulled it out again, the hairpin body that had not entered the cat corpse just now had turned black, which was clearly a sign of poisoning.

"It should be that this cat was poisoned when Tian was splashed by the water you splashed, and its death is very similar to when the second elder brother was poisoned." returned the hairpin to An'er, but saw that the girl shrank her hand behind her and said that she would not accept the hairpin, Ling Ruo smiled when she saw this: "That's it, change Ming'er's palace to reward you with another hairpin." ”

"Master, what do you do with this cat, it has long been known that the tea is poisonous, and it is normal for the cat to die of poisoning in the tea." Shui Xiu looked suspicious, she didn't understand Ling Ruo's actions, not only her, but Nanqiu and the others were also average.

Ling Ruo smiled silently and said, "But we can use this dead cat to set up a game within a game." When a person has a ghost in his heart, he is often afraid of something that does not exist at all. Speaking of this, she called Yang Hai and whispered in her ear.

After listening carefully, Yang Hai carried the tail of the cat's corpse and said, "Don't worry, master, the slave will definitely tell Leader Liu word for word." ”

With Yang Hai's departure, before sunset, rumors about a cat being poisoned in Chengqian Palace spread all over the palace, and the rumors also became more and more cracked in this transmission, from one cat to ten or twenty or more; At night, some guards said that they heard a terrible cat meow from the Chengqian Palace, and some said that they saw a group of cat spirits haunting, as if they were looking for people who harmed them, in short, it was extremely terrifying.
