Chapter 68: Returning the Monarch's Innocence
Duanmu Youning sneered: "Naturally no! The medicine in the princess is called 'Mei Gu', and the medicinal properties are extremely violent! After entering the human body, it only takes a cup of tea at most to have an attack, and once the attack is uncontrollable, it will make people lose their minds in an instant, and they no longer know what day it is! Otherwise, if the princess still has a trace of sobriety, how can she have an affair with Gao Zhengliang?"
Unable to figure out the key for a while, Tanglin Luo Xi couldn't help frowning: "It turns out that this medicine is so powerful, but what does this mean?"
Duanmu Youning smiled: "Your Majesty, the medicinal properties of the charming bones will attack in a full range of times in the time of a cup of tea, and the princess only felt unwell after King Zhan left for half an hour, doesn't this mean that the medicine is not ordered by King Zhan at all?"
Only then did I understand the key point, and everyone couldn't help but let out an "ah" in unison!
The time of a cup of tea is only equivalent to a quarter of an hour, and it is impossible to delay the medicinal properties that will attack soon! And Dongling Guyun left Donglin Drifting Snow half an hour in advance, this medicine could not have been given by him anyway!
A warm and touching smile appeared at the corner of his lips, Dongling Guyun quietly looked at Duanmu Youning, and an extremely strong thought suddenly rose in his heart: How could such a strange woman be allowed to fall into the hands of people like Donglin Linfeng? That is simply a tyrannical thing......
Seeing that he was about to force Dongling Guyun into a desperate situation, but suddenly the peak turned around, and it was his crown princess who caused all this, Dongling Linfeng was so angry that his whole body was trembling! Gritting his teeth, he snorted coldly and said: "But how do you know that this medicine is a charming bone? If you draw conclusions based only on the breath exhaled by Piaoxue, it is too arbitrary, right?"
I knew you would say that. Duanmu Youning was not in a hurry or impatient, and said with a smile: "This is easy to prove: within twelve hours after taking this medicine, this person's blood will have a strong sweet fragrance, and the originally white bones will temporarily turn pink, which is a characteristic that other drugs do not have, and the name 'Mei Gu' comes from this." But don't worry, after 12 hours, everything will be back to normal, and the occasional dose will not cause any effects on the body. The princess just needs to prick her finger ......"
"Who dares to hurt this princess?!" Seeing that the plan was about to be ruined, Tanglin Piaoxue was anxious and angry, and had already hidden his hands behind his back, staring at Duanmu Youning and screaming, "The medicine was given by Brother Yun, he just didn't want to marry me as a concubine! It was useless to let what you said fall into the sky! Father won't believe it! Father! She's talking nonsense, you can't trust her......"
Dongling Luo Xi frowned, obviously a little difficult to decide: "Duanmu Youning, are you really sure that it is a charming bone......?"
"Yes. Duanmu looked motionless, "Just borrow a drop of the princess's blood, and everything will be revealed! If the princess's blood does not have the sweet fragrance that the courtiers say, the courtiers are willing to apologize for their own crimes!"
Speaking of which, it would be difficult for Tanglin Luo Xi to believe it or not! Unless Duanmu Youning really didn't want to live. After a little hesitation, he turned his head and said, "Piaoxue, I don't want this to happen, but I can't wronged Yun'er because of this......!
"Erchen don't!" Donglin Piaoxue retreated again and again, screaming desperately, "This medicine is from Brother Yun, he can't rely on it! Father, you said that you want Brother Yun to be responsible for your sons, you can't change your order overnight! You are the emperor, Chrysostom Yuyan ......"
"I'm saying that if it really happened to Yun'er, I must be responsible for you. Tanglin Piaoxue's reaction was enough to explain everything, and Donglin Luo Xi couldn't help but sink his face, "But before that, I have to let Yun'er be undeniable! If you insist on refusing to prick your fingers, I can only believe Duanmu Youning's words!"
Wouldn't believing in her be the same as believing that Dong Ling Guyun didn't do it? But if you prick your finger and everyone smells the sweet fragrance of her blood, wouldn't the result be the same?
Desperately looking for an opportunity among all the clues, Tanglin Piaoxue's eyes suddenly lit up, and Duanmu Youning had already preemptively said: "Does the princess want to say that even though the medicine is not from King Zhan, he can secretly arrange manpower and wait for him to leave before giving you the medicine?"
The rhetoric that he had finally come up with was preempted, and Tanglin Piaoxue was furious: "Could it be ...... Isn't it? Since he can arrange for Gao Zhengliang to wait at the door to send me back, wouldn't it be different to arrange for someone else to drug him? There are so many people at the banquet who have the opportunity to approach me......
Duanmu smiled quietly: "What if you weren't drugged at the banquet?" Does the princess still have to say that His Royal Highness King Zhan arranged for someone to sneak into Luoxuezhai to be drugged?"
"It can't be. Dongling Luo Xi shook his head and took the words, "Fang Piaoxue has already said that he will leave early because he feels unwell, and at that time, the medicinal properties have already begun to attack, so why is it necessary for Yun'er to go to Luoxuezhai to poison him?"
"The emperor is wise. Duanmu Youning became more and more relaxed, "And according to the princess, since returning to Luoxuezhai, she has never eaten anything again, so what about the tea?
As she spoke, her eyes had already fallen on the table by the window, and everyone followed her gaze and saw a snow-white tea bowl.
Tanglin Linfeng can be regarded as thoughtful enough. I was afraid that Donglin Piaoxue would wake up and realize that there was a mystery in the tea, so when he left, he took away the tea bowl mixed with medicine and destroyed it, and now the tea bowl on the table is the one he used just now.
There were still some water stains on the side of the tea bowl, and it was obvious that it had just been drunk, otherwise the maid would never have allowed a used tea bowl to sit on the table for a day or two. Tanglin Piaoxue also knew this, and he couldn't deny it: "Yes, when I returned to Luoxuezhai, I felt very thirsty, so I asked the maid to bring tea." But so what?"
"Not very good. Duanmu Youning took a few steps forward, "Your Majesty, the courtiers are brave, please move and take a look at what's on the table." ”
Dongling Luoxi nodded, got up and walked to the table, looked down and took a closer look, only to find that there was a little white powder not far from the teacup! It's just that the white spot is extremely small, if it weren't for the dark red on the table, if it wasn't for a closer look, it would be impossible to find it! He couldn't help frowning: "This is ......"
"Charming bones. Duanmu Youning finally let out a sneer, "The princess is not the medicine at the banquet at all, she was only drugged in the tea after returning to Luoxue Zhai!"
Seeing that fine powder, the muscles at the corners of Tanglin's lips couldn't help twitching a few times! Obviously, it was he who accidentally sprinkled it on the table when he drugged Tanglin Falling Snow. But at that time, the light was dim and the time was in a hurry, he didn't notice it at all, how could he be discovered by Duanmu Youning?
This time he really guessed correctly, Duanmu Youning does have a pair of divine eyes, which can make everything dirty and hide!
The shock of everyone escalated again, and they didn't know what to say! Tanglin Luo Xi was surprised, but still very cautious: "Is it sure? This is really a charming bone?"
"Yes. Duanmu Youning nodded without hesitation, "The courtier once said that she met a master at the bottom of the cliff, who was not only proficient in medical skills, but also good at using poison, and the courtier had studied with him for half a year and knew a lot of medicines. If the emperor doesn't believe it, the courtiers can prove it immediately. ”
Tanglin Luoxi was very curious: "How to prove it?"
"It's simple. Duanmu Youning stretched out a finger, "This powder doesn't have any taste now, but as long as it is mixed with blood, it will emit the sweet fragrance that the courtiers just said." If not, it means that the courtier's judgment is wrong. ”
As she spoke, she bit her finger without hesitation and dripped a drop of blood on the white powder. After a while, an extremely strong sweet fragrance really spread, and the smell was dizzying and almost disgusting!
"Sure enough!" Dongling Luo Xi felt uncomfortable for a while, and immediately stayed away, "Sure enough, it's a charming bone! Hurry up!"
Duanmu Youning nodded, and immediately took the rag on the side to wipe the table clean, but the sweet fragrance never dissipated for a long time. Throwing down the rag, she smiled indifferently and said, "The emperor understands, right? If someone really drugged the princess at the banquet, how could the charming bone appear here? Could it be that he was afraid that the amount of one drop would not be enough, so he came to increase the amount again?"
Sitting back in his seat, Tanglin Luo Xi already believed that this matter had nothing to do with Tanglin Guyun. But after thinking about it carefully, he immediately frowned, staring at the depressed Tanglin Piaoxue: "Piaoxue, what is going on? You obviously took the drug after returning to Luoxuezhai, why did you say that you noticed the onset of the medicine at the banquet?"
"Erchen...... This ......" Tanglin Piaoxue sweated on his forehead, desperately trying to justify himself, "Erchen doesn't know if it is...... What's going on, but at the banquet, I did feel unwell, and I thought it was ...... I thought it was a drug-induced seizure......"
Duanmu Youning secretly sneered, but pretended to be very approving of it: "This is not strange. Presumably, the princess drank a few more glasses during the banquet, and the wine was rising, so she felt hot and dry, so she left early. Later, when I found out that I had been drugged, it was easy to think that the previous heat was due to the onset of the drug, right?"
This explanation sounded reasonable at first glance, and Tanglin Piaoxue didn't care about seeing her as an enemy, so she nodded again and again and said, "Yes, yes! That's right! I really felt hot at that time, so I ......."
Then the emperor will know who is lying. Duanmu Youning turned his head to look at Gao Zhengliang, his eyes were cold, "King Zhan didn't drug the princess at all, why did he arrange for Gao Zhengliang to wait for the princess at the door in advance, so that it would be a good thing to send her back?" ”
Gao Zhengliang's brain boomed, and he finally couldn't support it and collapsed on the ground!
Yes, it's all over! From the very beginning, this strategy was ridiculously clumsy, it was just nonsense under the urgency of Tanglin Piaoxue, and it couldn't stand scrutiny at all! But I originally thought that without other people's proof, it could at least arouse Donglin Luoxi's suspicion of Dongling Guyun, who knows......
