Chapter Seventy-Five: Case Judgment
Nuan Jin's face was still pale, and she lay silently on the couch, as if she was asleep.
Cen Run has been standing by the bed, looking down at her quietly, what is wrong? He kept thinking about what happened, was it just an accident? But my intuition tells me that things will never be so simple, but who can it be? Wanting to persecute Princess Yan in the inner courtyard of the palace is undoubtedly a capital crime of beheading, who would be so ignorant.
Is it Princess Xuanyue or Concubine Dan? Could it be the Queen Mother? This idea only arose for a moment, and was denied by Cen Run, although they didn't like Nuan Jin, they wouldn't be so painful as a killer.
He was a little upset, it was difficult to calm down and think about these things at this time, his warm brocade was lying here, still unconscious, he promised her every day that he would protect her and protect her, but what? But she became what she is now, he really wants to kill himself, or the person lying here is himself, although she will be sad, but at least it is better than being so helpless now.
The door behind him was gently pushed open, Cen Run turned around, and saw that it was the prince who walked in, and hurriedly got up and saluted.
"The slave knocks on His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Chitose!"
Lou Xuanning nodded: "Get up." How's Nishiki doing? Have you ever woken up? ”
He also didn't get a drop of water after he knew that Nuan Jin had an accident, and he kept staying in the outer hall, probably because he knew the love between Nuan Jin and Cen Run, so he couldn't help but not go into the house to disturb.
At this time, his eyes were blood-red, and he was extremely worried when he thought about it, but when he saw Cen Run shaking his head, his eyebrows were deeper.
"Did you go check what's going on?" Lou Xuanning came to the side of the bed and tucked the corner of the quilt for Nuan Jin.
"Someone has been sent to investigate."
He raised his head and looked at Cen Run: "Don't you think it's an accident?" ”
Cen Run's answer was very vague, after all, before the matter was clear, everything was unknown: "Just in case." ”
"Well, I hope Taifu Rong can come back in time."
Cen Run didn't speak, there is still no news of Mrs. Rong, his old man's whereabouts are uncertain, and it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find him, but Nuan Jin is seriously injured and cannot be delayed.
The first time he had such a helpless time, he was in a panic, he didn't know how long he could keep his sanity, he only knew that if Nuan Jin really had three long and two short, then he would not be able to survive: "The slave has already sent someone to find the prince and the prince, in addition, he is also recruiting divine doctors among the people, maybe there will be people in Nanchen who are as skilled as the prince and the prince." ”
"Well, I'm relieved that you're doing things. Now, there is no other way but to wait. Lou Xuanning got up, "You are by her side, she should be happy." ”
He made a pun, Cen Run was noncommittal, and in the end, Lou Xuanning just sighed and left.
The room was quiet again, and Cen Run sat on the edge of the couch and carefully took Nuan Jin's hand.
Her hands were cold and soft, soft and unworked, delicate like the silkiest satin.
Cen Run protected Nuan Jin's hand in the palm of his hand, hoping to pass on some warmth to her, he had a lot to tell her, but in the end he only confided into her name, which was both sour and tender: "Ayin ......"
A gentle knock sounded on the door, and outside the door was Bingwen's voice: "Master, Nan Yi is outside asking to see you." ”
Cen Run didn't want to see her, but after thinking about it, he pushed the door and walked out. He softly closed the door and motioned for Nanyi to go to the courtyard for questioning.
When he was far away from the inner hall, he looked at Nanyi.
Nan Yi's face was pale, as if he had made a big mistake, and he fell to his knees with a pop: "Slave and maid are guilty of death!" If you don't protect the princess, please punish the chief! ”
Cen Run's face did not change, it was as calm as a lake in late autumn, and he couldn't detect a trace of waves, he sighed, walked slowly to Nanyi's side, raised his palm and slapped it mercilessly.
But in an instant, Nan Yijue saw a flower in front of her, and a huge force struck, making her fall backwards uncontrollably, and before she could come back to her senses, there was a burning pain on her cheeks.
She controlled her body in a panic, and hurriedly knelt down and crawled back to Cen Run's feet, her whole body trembling like a swing.
"What do we want you to do with the princess?"
"Safe, keep the princess safe." There was a bloody taste spreading in his mouth, Nan Yi didn't dare to pay attention to it, and lowered his head and trembled uncontrollably.
"Oh? But now that the princess is wounded, you are kneeling here intact, what is the reason? ”
Nan Yi was frightened, she had expected this result the moment she saw the princess's accident, but she didn't think about it, only when she was there, she would feel so frightened: "Slave and maid are capital crimes!" ”
"Let's tell us what happened first." Cen Run sat in a chair with an indifferent expression, and Nan Yi's heart was furious.
She didn't dare to hesitate any more, and told everything that had happened.
"Little Zhuozi?" Cen Run frowned and thought for a while, then looked back at Bingwen, "Is there this person in the library pavilion?" ”
"Master, the apprentice went to check, and there was only one eunuch named Xiao Zhuozi among the registered eunuchs, he was on duty in the imperial dining room, and he was thirty-five this year, but I heard Nan Yi say that the 'Xiao Zhuozi' she met looked like she was fifteen or sixteen years old in appearance and voice, and it should not be the same person."
"Hmm." Cen Run nodded, and looked back at Nanyi, "You also find this little Zhuozi strange?" But you didn't tell him to go to the library with you? Just let it go? ”
Nan Yi was speechless, and in hindsight, he was really wrong: "Slave and maid are ashamed!" ”
"Idiot!" Cen Run's voice was cold, and anyone who listened to it knew that he had moved his killing intent.
He exhaled, a little tired: "What's going on with that late coming?" ”
"Back to the chief manager, when the slave maid went, he had already fainted, and there was a strange smell in the cabinet at that time, and there was a cup of tea that had been cooled, and only half of the tea was left, so I thought it was drunk."
Nan Yi carefully recalled the situation at the time: "The slave maid felt strange, so she sent the cup of tea to the Tai Hospital for examination, saying that it was poisoned inside, and the late adult who was sent for diagnosis and treatment was also poisoned, but although the poison was fatal, the evening adult did not drink much, so he escaped by luck." ”
Cen Run frowned and was silent, thinking carefully about the cause and effect, as if he suddenly thought of something, and asked, "What about Tao Tao?" ”
In the past, Tao Tao had never left Nuan Jin, especially now that such a big thing happened, why didn't he see her.
"Tao Tao went to Lord Wan, she had been guarding the outer hall just now, and she was about to rush in, but she was stopped by everyone, and then she was persuaded for a long time before she went to take a look at Lord Wan."
"Where was she then?"
Nan Yi frowned and thought about it: "She said that she was reading in the library with the late lord, and then suddenly someone came to her and said that the princess was looking for her something, she didn't dare to delay and left, but when she returned to Qiwu Palace, she found that the princess was not there, she was feeling strange, and when she just wanted to return to the library, she knew that the princess had an accident there." ”
"Princess, Wanlin, Library Pavilion, Tao Tao, Little Eunuch ......" Cen Run read these words softly, and no emotion could be detected in a pair of good-looking eyebrows.
Nan Yi and Bingwen glanced at each other, but they didn't dare to make a sound, and quietly waited for Cen Yun to speak.
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, his face changed slightly, and he got up and looked at the hall: "Call Tao Tao back, she is in the inner hall, you are guarding in the outer hall, you must be careful in everything, no one except you can approach the princess, everything used by the princess, including the medicine stone, must be checked one by one, if there is any situation, send someone to find our house." ”
"Yes!"
Cen Runyan turned around, the corners of his robe drew an arc neatly, the person had already left quickly, his heart was pounding, and his mind was full of the shadow of that person.
Damn, why did you forget about him.
"Master, where are we going?" Bingwen followed behind Cen Run, and when he saw that his face was not healing, he asked with some worry.
Cen Run replied to the question, with a cold light in his eyes: "Go and find General Lin!" ”
