Chapter 28: Five Years of Peace
Song Jinrui seized the opportunity and wanted to put Song Zhiyao to death, such a purpose was too obvious, Concubine Xiang shook her head quietly, signaling Song Jinrui not to be excessive.
Song Jinrui silently retreated to his position and looked at Song Zhiyao with an unwilling expression.
Song Zhiyao looked at Song Jinghe and said; "Father, can you let your sons talk about this matter one by one?"
Song Jinghe nodded; "Tell me what you think."
Song Zhiyao nodded; "First of all, this incense burner is Erchen's good, but the spices in it have been replaced, because Erchen's spices will definitely not add mantoxin, if the father doesn't believe it, the father can ask the son's body about the taste, although the spices are exactly the same as those used by the son, but the person forgot a little, with the spices of mantoxin, the taste has changed."
Song Zhiyao said and stretched out her clothes in front of Song Jinghe, Song Jinghe sniffed it, nodded, and motioned for Song Chuyu to come over, Song Chuyu silently walked to Song Jinghe's side, Song Jinghe sniffed it gently, it was really a little different.
This detail was discovered by Song Zhiyao when she went to Song Chuyu's room, but fortunately, she was more sensitive to the taste, after all, this smell was too shallow, and if you didn't pay attention to it, you wouldn't notice it at all.
"Secondly, the imperial doctor who treated the imperial sister has been bought, as for who bought it, it is inconvenient for the son to say, after all, who knows it, and besides, if the father still doesn't believe it, then the son will pass the witnesses over."
Song Zhiyao looked at Song Jinghe unhurriedly, Song Jinghe heard Song Zhiyao's words, and he already knew it in his heart, but ......
There are even witnesses? In a short period of time, Song Zhiyao was still imprisoned in the dungeon, how did she do it.
"Pass it on."
"Yes."
Song Zhiyao clapped her hands, and the person who had been waiting outside for a long time walked in tremblingly and knelt on the ground.
Song Zhiyao looked at this humane; "And tell me the truth, make sure you can walk out."
The man lowered his head and did not dare to raise his head; "The little one has seen the emperor, the queen's mother, here's the thing, some time ago someone came to the little one and said that he wanted to buy man poison, and gave the small one a large sum of silver, and the small one agreed to this thing because of greed for money, after getting the man poison, some of them were given to that person, and some of them were given to the prince's bedroom, and the little one was moved to put the rest in the prince's bedroom, but the little one never thought that that person would poison the princess with man poison, and also framed the prince, the little one really didn't know, please ask the emperor to be clear. ”
Song Jinghe was furious: "In the palace, you actually did such a thing of stealing chickens and dogs!" Will the entire palace be poisoned by you in the future? Who gave you your bear's heart leopard gall! Who! ”
"Your Majesty, the little one knows that it's wrong, the little one doesn't dare anymore, please spare the little one this time, the emperor ......"
The man was on his knees and peed his pants in fright, and there was a puddle of water on the ground.
Song Zhiyao waved her hand and motioned for the guards to stay down.
"Father, isn't this matter still unclear and understood?"
"Father! This person may have been found by the prince, and the purpose was to help the prince take the blame. ”
"Then can you explain why the two of them smell different? Who gave the mantoxin, and where is the imperial doctor now, and call over and ask. ”
Song Jinghe sat on a chair and stared at Song Jinrui.
Song Jinrui frowned, the imperial doctor had already left the capital.
"Father's ......"
"Where's the Imperial Doctor! Call here. ”
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor is unwell, and the concubine let the imperial doctor go back, he should be at home now, or should someone invite him over?" Concubine Xiang looked at Song Jinghe's annoyed and angry appearance, and hurriedly spoke.
The queen sneered beside her; "Not feeling well? At home? Presumably he knew that something was wrong and had quietly left the capital, right? Presumably, even if someone is sent to the imperial doctor's house, the building is already empty. ”
"You ......" Concubine Xiang clenched her handkerchief, eager to screw off the queen's head, but she still held back.
looked at Song Jinghe affectionately: "Your Majesty ......"
Song Jinghe now has a headache; "Okay, you go to the Imperial Doctor's house to see what's going on, and besides, the person outside the door, you go and investigate what's going on."
"Yes."
The father-in-law, who has served by Song Jinghe's side for many years, handled the things that Song Jinghe explained beautifully, and he didn't drag his feet at all.
But......
Song Jinghe and the others waited in the house for a long time, and the people sent out came back to reply.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor's home is empty, it seems that he left yesterday, and now I'm afraid it's ......."
"What about the guy outside, how is the investigation?" Song Jinghe stroked his forehead, he had a headache, what was the matter.
"Your Majesty, the outside has also been investigated, is it ......"
"What is it?"
"This ......" the man looked at Song Jinghe with some embarrassment.
Song Jinghe stared at this person; "Why, say, I forgive you not guilty."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the results of the investigation by the person outside are exactly the same as what the prince said, and someone did it on purpose...... Please also ask the emperor to take a clear look. ”
"Nonsense, you guys are just messing around!" Song Jinghe was annoyed and angry, and slapped the table angrily; "Do you know what you're doing? You've disgraced the royal family! What, it's a joke in the end? Someone framed the prince? Or is this man-poison your own! Say! I said it well. ”
Song Jinghe seemed to be angry, and directly slapped the table trembling.
Song Zhiyao watched quietly from the side, and said unhurriedly; "Father, someone framed his son in this matter, it's just that he doesn't want his son to choose a concubine as he wishes, why don't we make it a trivial matter, how about a trivial matter? In this way, the royal face can be regarded as preserved, as for the matter of Princess Chuyu being poisoned, just find a scapegoat, that is, that person has a grudge against Erchen and wants to use Princess Chuyu to suppress Erchen, how about it? ”
Song Jinrui didn't expect Song Zhiyao to say such a thing, and was stunned for a while, but the queen looked at Song Zhiyao with some dissatisfaction, such a good opportunity, why didn't she pick it out! It's Concubine Xiang who is framing you.
At this time, Concubine Xiang walked to Song Jinghe's side, gently rubbed Song Jinghe's temples and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is better than what the prince said, turn big things into small things, and turn small things into small things, after all, it is also a shame for the royal family to spread it, maybe how many people are watching the jokes of the royal family." ”
Song Jinghe gently patted Concubine Xiang's hand and motioned for Concubine Xiang to sit down, and Concubine Xiang sat beside Song Jinghe obediently; "Okay, this matter is according to what the prince said, big things are turned into small things, you all go down, as for Chuyu, you should cultivate your body well during this time, don't go out of the palace, as for the prince, the bedroom outside the palace has been built, you can go out of the palace."
Song Zhiyao nodded yes, cheering in her heart, she can finally leave the palace! This palace is too depressing.
But the queen's face was very ugly, and she just wanted to open her mouth to refute, but was interrupted by Song Zhiyao: "Thank you for your father's grace, if your father has nothing to do, the son will retire first." ”
"Let's go down." Song Jinghe waved his hand, and Song Zhiyao was also in the cell for the night, physically and mentally exhausted, so she turned around and left.
And the queen looked at Concubine Xiang and Song Jinghe's appearance together, frowned, and didn't want to continue watching, so she retired and left.
Song Jinghe and Concubine Xiang's family were left in the house.
Concubine Xiang motioned for the two little ones to go down, and Song Jinrui and Song Chuyu turned around and left with great eyes.
But Song Jinrui was not convinced, why Song Zhiyao was able to find evidence in a short period of time, what are these people doing, these little things can't be done.
After Song Chuyu went out with Song Jinrui, Song Chuyu whispered; "Second brother, I think the prince is a little different from before."
"I have long felt that the prince is different, he is too cunning, if he had suffered this dumb loss before, I didn't expect to be so cunning now!"
"yes, I always felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't find any evidence."
"If you are idle during this time, take the prince's side to see, and you will definitely grab the prince's pigtails."
"I remember, but the prince is about to move out of the palace, and if you want to go to the prince's mansion, it must not be so simple."
"So, you have to grab the prince's pigtails as soon as possible! The prince can't be given a chance to breathe. ”
"yes, got it."
"Okay, you haven't fully recovered yet, so go down and rest." "Then I'll go first."
Song Chuyu waved his hand and turned around to return to his bedroom, while Song Jinrui began to wander around the palace, trying to catch some clues, but he didn't find anything, and Song Jinrui left in a gloomy manner.
As soon as Song Zhiyao returned to the dormitory, the queen rushed over from behind.
"Come here."
Song Zhiyao heard the queen's voice and walked over, looking docile.
The queen swallowed the words in her mouth again, and Song Zhiyao's appearance made people unbearable to scold.
"Tell me, what happened today, why did you let go when you grabbed Concubine Xiang's pigtails."
When Song Zhiyao said these words again, she already knew that the queen would definitely ask herself when she came back.
No, here it is.
"Queen Mother, in fact, even if Concubine Xiang is found out in this matter, the father will not have any harsh punishment for Concubine Xiang, it is nothing more than some painless punishment, it is not good for us, it is better to be a favor, this matter is settled, after all, the father is so smart, he must know the harm in the middle, plus, some time ago, the son mentioned to his father about living in the palace, no, the father directly agreed? There's no need to stall, but in the end, we're still good. ”
Song Zhiyao said this one by one, and the queen was directly confused, and looked at Song Zhiyao with a puzzled expression; "Why don't you see any benefits in this palace, and what are you talking about leaving the palace, why didn't you tell this palace in the first place! What else are you hiding from Hongu, or do you now feel like you've grown up and your wings are stiff? Can you get out of the control of the main palace? ”
"Queen mother, you misunderstood the son-in-law, the son-in-law absolutely has no such thoughts, as for the matter of leaving the palace, the son-in-law just told his father not long ago, and he hasn't had time to report to the queen mother, after leaving the palace, for the rights and wrongs in the palace, the son-in-law can more or less avoid it, and the queen mother can also save a lot of worry, not to mention, after leaving the palace, he can show his skills and feet, there are always some restrictions in the palace, and Concubine Xiang has to target the sons everywhere, even Song Jinrui and Song Chuyu are targeting the sons."
"That being said, after you leave the palace, everything can only be done on your own, after all, the queen mother can't go out of the palace anytime and anywhere to help you."
The queen's tone was a lot softer, and Song Zhiyao knew that her words were successful, so she walked to the queen's side, gently took the queen's hand, sat beside the queen and said: "Queen Mother, don't worry, now that the sons and daughters have grown up, they are handy for those things outside the palace, and the queen mother does not need to worry, only when they are out of the palace, the sons can show their skills and feet, and there are fewer constraints." ”
The queen nodded; "You're right, you do have some restraints in the palace, not to mention that you are also old enough to marry a wife, it's time to move out and live."
"It's really good that the queen mother can understand her son."
"The queen mother doesn't understand you, who can understand you, okay, that's it, the queen mother doesn't care about you so much, after moving out, remember to come to the queen mother to see more when you have time, after all, the queen mother is the only one."
