Chapter 19: Unknown
"Your Majesty, the courtiers know where they are." Gongsun Chuyue's voice sounded in the main hall, and everyone turned their heads to look at her in unison.
"Really? It's up to you to search. The emperor's voice flashed with doubts, even his guards couldn't find out, how could a woman be?
Gongsun Chuyue was ordered to stand up, and with the support of Chunhua, she stood up with difficulty, kneeling on the ground for a long time, making her limbs numb, and it took a long time for her to regain the sensation of her legs.
Gongsun Chuyue slowly walked in front of the palace maid and circled around her twice, without speaking, the air was so quiet that it was suffocating.
The beads of sweat of the maid of the palace kept sliding down her forehead, and her psychological defense line was obviously facing collapse, and her originally calm eyes became extremely flustered.
Gongsun Chuyue likes this method very much, in a quiet environment, she can unconsciously break down the other party's psychological bottom line, make her think confused, and thus expose her feet, but the psychological quality of this palace maid is too poor, she hasn't started yet, it's already over, Gongsun Chuyue pouted in a place where people couldn't see clearly, cut, it's not a little challenging.
When Situ Heng tested her, she persisted for a long time, alas, she unconsciously remembered him again, most of her hunger was Situ Heng's participation, even though she really hated him, but there was always a trace of softness in her heart, only to Situ Heng's softness.
Gongsun Chuyue knew that her heart had been shrouded in hatred, she didn't stop it, but kept letting it go, because only this endless hatred supported her through countless days and nights, if there was no hatred, she didn't know what the meaning of her doing it all over again was.
There are so many good memories in the past, but now they have become her life-threatening talismans, how much she loved Situ Heng in the past, and now how much she hates him, she knows that all this is not all to blame Situ Heng, everything is the prince, but she really can't control herself, if there is no hatred to support, she doesn't know where she is going.
Gongsun Chuyue stared at the palace maid in front of her, her thoughts drifted into the distance, and it wasn't until she heard the whispers of the people next to her that she suddenly came back to her senses, heh, it seems that Situ Heng has too much influence on her.
Even she didn't know whether she approached Situ Heng because of revenge or something else, she didn't want to delve into the reason, so that's it. If the matter is resolved smoothly this time, she should also go to see Situ Heng.
Gongsun Chuyue walked to the side of the palace maid and took her hand, Gongsun Chuyue obviously felt her resistance, Gongsun Chuyue smiled, grabbed her hand hard, and pulled her to the group of imperial doctors.
"Doctor, can you lend me a blade?" Gongsun Chuyue had a decent smile on his face, and he pleaded with the imperial doctor in a sincere tone, and his bright smile dazzled everyone's eyes.
"Oh, yes, yes." A physician took out a small blade from the box, which was only used by practitioners and was very convenient for treating wounds.
Gongsun Chuyue borrowed the blade with a smile, turned his head to look at the palace maid, and said, "Your hand is really beautiful, green and jade fingers, which makes me very envious?" ”
Gongsun Chuyue spit out the words slowly, word by word to her, but the palace maid was still dying, constantly trying to break away from the clenched delicate little hand.
Gongsun Chuyue grabbed her hand tightly, and the blade kept rubbing against the nail cover, one by one, one by one, testing everyone's patience, and finally someone couldn't wait.
"Gongsun Chuyue, are you delaying any longer? If you let this palace find out that you have not found any useful clues, the sin will be increased. The queen's solemn and majestic voice came, and the smiling face was gone at this moment, with a hint of impatience in the voice, but everyone was anxious to know the truth, so no one found out.
"Sister, what are you anxious about, the truth will come out soon, I don't know who it is, it's so vicious, if you catch it, you should really break the corpse into thousands of pieces, sister, don't you say?" Gongsun Xin took the queen's words, and gently brushed the tulle with his hand, but the-for-tat in his tone was too obvious.
"Back to the emperor, queen, Xin Guifei, the truth will come out soon." Gongsun Chuyue looked at the people above, and he didn't have the heart to exert pressure, so he accelerated the movement in his hand, and after a while, the fine powder piled up.
"Imperial Doctor, are you bothering to check what these are?" Gongsun Chuyue held the paper and put it into the hand of the imperial doctor closest to her, and she stood aside, waiting for the result.
The imperial physicians gathered in a circle, chattering and discussing, and constantly doing experiments, taking the powder and sniffing it between their noses, then pinching a little and putting it in their hands, observing carefully, after a long while, the leading imperial physician lifted his robe and knelt on the ground.
"Emperor Qiqi, it is the poison in Miss Lin, but unfortunately, there are only finished products, and Weichen can't detoxify them, alas." The imperial doctor shook his head and said with a sigh, his expression very regretful.
"Your Majesty, even if this palace maid is poisoned, someone must be behind it, otherwise, how can a slave and maid have such a powerful poison." The queen was unyielding and aggressive, looking at the people below, a ghostly light flashed in her eyes. How could she let go of this perfect opportunity.
Gongsun Chuyue stood aside, bowed her head and meditated, she always knew that there was a trick, she thought that the queen would not dig her own grave, but she didn't expect to really ask, if she was not a little sure, how could she appear in a grand manner.
"Your Majesty, has something happened?" An imperial concubine snorted and coquettishly slammed towards the emperor, especially in this hall.
Gongsun Chuyue felt that this voice was a little familiar, and when he looked up, he only felt a choke in his throat, and he was almost choked to death by himself, wasn't this concubine exactly what she saw in that abandoned palace, but she didn't expect it to be the emperor's woman, and the prince put his father's woman on it?
Gongsun Chuyue thought of this, the corners of his mouth twitched, fortunately, fortunately, she was not found, otherwise the possibility of being killed is too great, and this kind of ugly fact is too difficult to say.
"Aifei, where have you been all this time?" The emperor did not answer her question, but asked her with a frown, although they had no connection, but the emperor's suspicious nature doomed the tragedy of Lan Concubine.
Gongsun Chuyue learned that the woman in front of him was dedicated to the emperor by other small countries, this woman was very favored some time ago, maybe the emperor was tired of it, so the emperor hasn't called her much recently, Gongsun Chuyue thought about it, and probably knew how the prince hooked up with her, taking advantage of a woman's lonely moment, giving infinite warmth, no woman can resist it.
Most of the women in the palace are like flowers, but unfortunately no one can appreciate them, and without the support of a strong maternal family, they are destined to be short-lived.
"Your Majesty, the concubine's chest is a little tight, so she went out to get a breath, no, she just came back." Lan Concubine's gentle and charming voice sounded, as delicate as a spring breeze, and her voice like a yellow bird was crisp and seductive.
"Emperor Qiqi, it was not the courtiers who did it, this palace maid is a person in the palace, this is the first time the courtiers have entered the palace, and they don't even know the layout of the palace, how can they be called to her? Please also ask the emperor to be clear. Gongsun Chuyue's eyes were like torches, his voice was sonorous and powerful, and no one could refute what he said.
"That's right, didn't this grandson Chuyue just return to Beijing, how could it be?"
"yes, yes, most of them have been wronged." Several ladies whispered beside them, and indeed there were too many loopholes in this, and there were many doubts that could not be explained.
"Your Majesty, Gongsun Chuyue doesn't have it, but it doesn't mean that Gongsun doesn't have it, sister, don't you say?" The queen listened to the voice below, her fingers clenched, a group of fools, it seems that there is time to teach these people a lesson, they can't say anything, what's the use of living, her eyes are tight, and her displeasure is only a flash.
Gongsun Chuyue listened to the queen's words, her lowered eyes made it impossible to see her expression clearly, she was completely affected, if she didn't guess wrong, this pit was probably dug by the queen, not only eradicated her, but also Gongsun Xin estimated that she would lose her favor, and more importantly, the emperor would be disgusted with the Gongsun family, the emperor was afraid of the Gongsun family enough, it was really a good strategy, she could kill three birds with one stone, and she deserved to be the queen.
"Back to the emperor, back to the queen, the courtiers have a way to make this palace maid tell the truth." Gongsun Chuyue rolled her eyes, she remembered that when she was fighting in the past, she had learned in an unknown tribe that people could unconsciously tell the secrets of their hearts, and only special medicinal materials were needed.
Coincidentally, her master Leng Tianyu has this kind of medicinal material, she has seen the fragrant flower in his medicinal material library, and the number seems to be quite large, alas, there is no way, even the sky is helping her.
"Oh, what's the solution?" The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked her, very interested, if such a thing really exists, then he can learn more about the spies of other countries in the future.
"Your Majesty, please allow the maids of the courtiers to go back to the house to get something." Gongsun Chuyue hooked his head and said in a low voice.
"Exactly." The emperor thought about it for a while and agreed.
After about two teas, Xia He came back panting, and the violent wheezing sound was particularly obvious, which showed how fast he ran.
Gongsun Chuyue carefully observed the queen on the seat, and couldn't take her eyes off it, she seemed to have found something, people are always used to doing something when they are nervous or weak-hearted, and she obviously saw that the queen's hand had been rubbing the other hand without listening.
Gongsun Chuyue looked at it and gathered her mind, well, she seemed to know what to do.
Gongsun Chuyue took the fragrant flowers brought by Xia He, crushed them all, and then picked them up, gently scattered, the fragrant fragrance came to her face, she took the crushed flowers to the palace maid, walked around her twice, and then observed her expression, and when she was a little delirious, Gongsun Chuyue opened her mouth gently.
"Come, tell me, who instructed you to poison Miss Lin, and why?" Gongsun Chuyue's charming voice sounded softly, and his eyes were misty, making people can't help but indulge in it.
Gongsun Chuyue obviously found that the queen's hands were clenched, and although her expression was impermanent, it was not difficult to see the panic in her eyes, but at this moment, the situation took a sharp turn.
"Yes, it's the Emperor...... The imperial ...... "Before the palace maid finished speaking, she had already fallen to the ground, with a small silver needle stuck in her neck, and the wound was very small.
