Inside the Wuling Courtyard.

The princess looked at the ledger on the table, but her eyes were glazed, and it was clear that her mind was not on the ledger.

Although she is calm on the surface, she is still worried about the prince's concubine in her heart. However, there is not much she can do now, only to stabilize the Qi Wangfu and appease the families of those officials who were imprisoned because of the case of the first prince.

This prince has been locked up for several days, and he doesn't know how His Majesty wants to make a decision in his heart.

Something happened in the past few days.

The case of Wang Zhengjun's father and son was ironclad, and he was quickly sentenced to death, but Wang Zhengjun was an important witness in the case of the former prince, so he kept his life alive and never carried out the execution. His Majesty suddenly became concerned about this case, and asked the people of the Criminal Department to bring the Wang family father and son to justice as soon as possible, but the people of the Criminal Department have been looking for excuses to drag it out. Finally, His Majesty's patience was exhausted, and they gave their father and son a cup of poisoned wine, and it was directly over. This father and son, who committed heinous crimes, also died a dignified death.

However, although Wang Zhengjun was given death, he was not the most critical witness in the case of the former prince, so it would not affect this matter.

However, His Majesty's attitude was obvious for a while, he obviously didn't want to mention the events of that year anymore, and wanted to erase all the events of that year.

None of these things happened, and the princess had to speculate about His Majesty's intentions for a long time, and she became more and more worried.

"Princess!" Lily of the Valley hurriedly entered and said, "The news just came that Concubine Jiang seems to have caught an assassin who assassinated Mo Daoyuan!"

"Oh?" the princess put down the ledger and frowned.

"Princess, we all understand that this Mo Daoyuan must be related to the case of the first prince, and now if someone wants to kill him, it must be to kill people and kill him, and the person behind this is the person who framed the first prince back then, the prince will make such a big fuss, isn't it just to find out that person?

The princess's eyes narrowed slightly, if she could find out the murderer behind the scenes, it would be a great achievement for the prince, and this credit would definitely not be able to be monopolized by Jiang Liu!

"Let's go, let's go to the Autumn Water Garden and have a look!" the princess said coldly.

After a while, the princess came to Qiushui Garden with a few people, she glanced coldly at Mo Ziyu who was standing at the door, and said lightly: "Concubine Jiang, don't be polite." ”

She then sat down on the top, played with her nails, and said lightly: "Concubine Jiang don't stand, sit down." ”

Mo Ziyu sat down and asked, "I don't know why the princess came?"

The princess raised her eyes and glanced at Mo Ziyu coldly: "I heard that you captured an assassin?"

"It is true. Mo Ziyu said.

"Since it's an assassin found in King Qi's mansion, leave it to me!" the princess said lightly, "Qingling, you go and bring the assassin, I will interrogate him personally." ”

Qing Ling glanced at Mo Ziyu.

Mo Ziyu smiled slightly: "The princess doesn't need to be interrogated anymore, this person's identity and background, purpose and the main messenger behind the scenes are already very clear!"

"Now that it's clear, let's talk about it. ”

Mo Ziyu shook his head lightly and said, "Princess Qiyu, now is not the time, it is not appropriate to disclose this matter." ”

"What's the matter, I'm a dignified princess, I'm still an outsider?" the princess sneered, "It seems that Concubine Jiang didn't take me in her eyes! As Princess Qi, I can't be a blind man with my eyes open, can I?

"Princess, the prince entrusted the safety of Mr. Mo Daoyuan to me on the night before the last time he went to court, and now the assassin assassinated Mr. Mo, so this assassin is under my control. It's not that I can't tell the princess, it's just that the time is not ripe, if the princess insists on going her own way, what went wrong with the thing that the princess wants to do, and the princess blames it, is the princess willing to bear this blame?"

"Are you threatening me?" the princess stared at Mo Ziyu coldly, "The prince is now in the prison, and my father and brother are all relying on me outside, you are just a small side concubine in the Qi Palace, what can you do? Only when I understand the ins and outs of the matter, can I let my father and brother think together to save the prince! Don't use chicken feathers as arrows, I can spare you if you delay the business, and the prince can't spare you!"

"This method was set by the prince and me, and I can't watch the princess ruin her plan. Mo Ziyu said lightly, "If the princess wants to blame, she will wait for the princess to come out and then blame, but before, I will not let the princess take this moment away!"

"You!" the princess smiled coldly, "Concubine Jiang is trying to provoke me?"

"So what?" Mo Ziyu looked at the princess's eyes without fear, "Although the princess is in charge of the palace, if she wants someone in Qiushui Garden, she has to agree to it." ”

"What if I have to take people away?"

"Then it's up to the princess to see what the princess is capable of. Mo Ziyu said coldly.

"Someone!" shouted the princess, "take down this slut who is guilty of the following crimes, does not distinguish between dignity and inferiority, shields assassins, and deceives the prince!"

Then came a couple of guards.

Qingling was protected in front of Mo Ziyu, and several maids from Qiushui Garden were also protected in front of Mo Ziyu.

The princess looked coldly: "Are you going to rebel?"

Qing Ling said coldly: "Since the prince asked the slave maid to protect Concubine Jiang's safety, then no one can hurt her! What's more, Concubine Jiang knows more about the prince's affairs than the princess, and only Concubine Jiang knows the prince's next plan, if the princess arrests Concubine Jiang, causing no one to cooperate with the prince's next plan, and then causing the prince to come out with something bigger, this responsibility, presumably none of us can afford it!"

At this time, the third lady hurriedly came and persuaded: "When, we are all our own people, why bother with sabre-rattling? The prince is still in prison now, I don't know what the situation is, should we start infighting first? No matter what festivals we had before, now everyone's purpose is the same, that is, I hope that the prince can come back as soon as possible." If the prince knows that in King Qi's mansion, we will take a knife against ourselves, I'm afraid it will be cold, right?"

The third lady looked at the princess and persuaded: "Princess, you are the concubine of Xinjiang once." I am willing to vouch for Concubine Jiang with my life, she must have a plan for the future. ”

"Since we are all our own people, and we all have the same purpose, why does she want to be mysterious and refuse to tell us anything?" said the princess mocked, "not to exclude us, but to take the credit for herself! Third lady, you speak for her now, but ask her if she has ever regarded you as her own, and has she ever revealed half of her great plans to you?"

The third lady smiled faintly and said, "As long as the prince can be safe, I haven't thought about it." Didn't the princess wholeheartedly hope that the prince would be safe, but went for that piece of credit?"

"You!" The princess didn't expect Mo Ziyu's attitude to be so tough, plus the third lady was here and the mud, if she insisted on taking the assassin away from her, it would be a loss of reputation, she thought silently for a while, and then sneered, "It's better that your plan is seamless, otherwise I won't be able to spare you!"

When the words fell, the princess took people away.

Mo Ziyu looked at the third lady and said, "You came too timely. If you hadn't come over in time, I'm afraid I would really have to clash with the princess head-on. ”

"Your courage is not small!" the third lady smiled faintly, "This moment has something to do with what happened in the palace that day?"

Mo Ziyu nodded lightly.

The third lady's face changed: "Could it be that the matter has something to do with that person?"

"The third lady is a smart person, she should have guessed it. ”

The third lady bit her lip lightly: "I see." But since there are such important witnesses, why don't you just send them to see Your Majesty and the Queen Mother?"

"The time has not yet come. Mo Ziyu said, "I'm still waiting for something to happen, but I guess it's going to be soon!"

She held the third lady's hand and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, the prince is coming out soon!"

On this night, what Mo Ziyu expected happened, King Zhao was poisoned in the prison!

After a while, the palace sent someone to take Mo Ziyu into the palace to detoxify King Zhao.

The night was deep, Mo Ziyu simply freshened up, took Lu Qiao and Qingling, boarded the carriage, and hurriedly entered the palace.

I saw Concubine Li guarding the door with a pale face, and when she saw Mo Ziyu's figure, she hurriedly held her hand, and cried and said, "Concubine Jiang, King Zhao will ask you, you must cure him!"

Mo Ziyu said: "Don't worry, the concubine will go all out!"

When I entered the house, I saw that there were already two imperial doctors guarding the bed, the two of them had partnered with Mo Ziyu when they were treating the plague for the prince before, and they were very confident in Mo Ziyu's medical skills. ”

There was no time to greet the two, Mo Ziyu put down the medicine box and asked, "What's the situation now?"

One of the imperial doctors said: "We can't see what kind of poison it is, we just used the Nine Spice Jade Dew Pill to temporarily suppress the onset of toxicity, but this Nine Fragrance Jade Dew Pill can't last long, and we still need to understand the toxicity as soon as possible and detoxify the prince." ”

Mo Ziyu looked at Liu Yu's face was pale, without a trace of blood, his lips were black, and his limbs were stiff. There was a basin next to the bed, and several mouthfuls of black blood were spat out in the basin.

She squatted down and took Liu Yu's pulse, her face became more and more heavy, and she frowned: "The situation is not very good." ”
