Chapter 267: Human and Physical Evidence
In the palace of the Ten Thousand Dynasties outside the cell, it was not as comfortable as in the dark prison, and Yan Qinghan looked a little anxious at this moment.
Only then did Yan Qing order the imperial doctor to go to check the body of the little prince, and the imperial doctor told him that the little prince himself was suffering from a hidden disease and had been poisoned, so he couldn't be sure what the cause of the little prince's death was.
Xiang thoroughly knew the reason, and he had to ask for an autopsy to know, but the child was still so young, Fang Lanzhi was unwilling to do it anyway, not to mention that she was unwilling, even Yan Qinghan's heart couldn't bear it.
At this time, the little prince had already got out of the coffin and was ready to deal with it.
Yan Qinghan thought back to what Du Ruosheng said to him at that time, "Your Majesty, do you really believe in concubines?" "Your Majesty, the death of the prince has nothing to do with the concubine", Du Ruosheng's words kept coming to his mind, but at that time he hesitated, he knew that with Du Ruosheng's temperament, as long as she hesitated, she must be very disappointed in herself.
His heart was already full of self-blame, how could he not believe her, even so, he shouldn't have let people put her in prison like this.
It's just that Yan Qinghan's remorse now is useless.
The only thing he can do now is to find out the truth as soon as possible and exchange Du Ruosheng's innocence.
In the Shoukang Palace on the other side, Lu Lan was already angry.
"This Du Ruosheng, the mourning family never imagined that she would attack a child! It's really a mourning family to underestimate her! Lu Lan, who didn't know the truth, couldn't help but marvel at Du Ruosheng's ruthlessness.
Although Du Ruosheng is not as easy to deal with as before now, weak and bulliable, Lu Lan still calculates that she will not make a move on the child, but unfortunately, after thousands of calculations, she miscalculated this step.
"Niangniang, now that the child is dead, the concubine Niangniang...."
As soon as the child dies, the fate of this concubine is all determined by Yan Qinghan's mood, without the child as a bargaining chip, what is the use of Fang Lanzhi for them.
"Fang Lanzhi, her life and death mourning family naturally can't be the master, whether she is dead or alive depends on the emperor's will, it's just that this woman is no longer useful to the mourning family, find a chance to get rid of it, it's also a disaster to keep it." Lu Lan's eyes revealed coldness.
"Yes, sissy."
Rong Wan should arrive.
Regarding the child's death, in fact, Rong Wan also had uneasiness in her heart.
From the time she took the child into the palace, she had noticed the abnormality of the child, but if she said that the child had a problem at that time, she was afraid that this sin would be put on her head by Lu Lan, and Rong Wan would naturally not bear this kind of thing of lifting a stone to hit her own feet.
But now that this child is dying so inexplicably, it really makes her heart beat a little drum, not to mention that Lu Lan doubts the relationship between this matter and Du Ruosheng, and even she doesn't believe that this matter will be done by Du Ruosheng, just like Du Ruosheng said at the time, even if she wants to harm at this time, she will not be so blatant, isn't this forcing herself to a dead end? However, Rong Wan's speculations and thoughts are always just thinking about it in her heart, after all, even if she understands it in her heart, she still has to pretend to be confused on the surface.
"Niangniang, Du Ruosheng, what are you going to do?" Rong Wan asked again.
"Hmph, now that you have this opportunity, do you think the mourning family can easily let her go?"
Lu Lan snorted coldly, and Rong Wan nodded understandingly.
As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles.
On the day of the day, in the early dynasty, the ministers waiting in the Chengyuan Palace got the news from somewhere and learned that Du Ruosheng had poisoned the prince.
Yan Qinghan had just stabilized on the dragon chair, and some ministers stepped forward and began to admonish.
"Your Majesty, the queen's poisoning of the prince is a great crime, and this must be investigated!"
"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, Your Majesty, if this matter is true, it must not be tolerated!"
The continuous voices from the left to the right completely annoyed Yan Qinghan.
said in a cold voice: "Who told you that this matter was done by the queen, and it has not yet been decided, if I hear that someone has framed the queen like this, I will kill it directly!" ”
Yan Qinghan's eyes flashed with cold light, and swept straight over the ministers in the audience, and the ministers who were still vibrating suddenly shut up and didn't speak out.
"Your Majesty, you said that it was framed, and now that the certified physical evidence is there, do you still want to say that it is framed?" Just when everyone was silent and didn't dare to speak again, Lu Lan slowly walked into the hall from outside the hall, stood in the center of the hall majestically, and confronted Yan Qinghan.
Yan Qinghan also expected that Lu Lan would definitely not let go of this opportunity, but now the certified physical evidence he said made Yan Qinghan puzzled.
"Queen Mother, where is the physical evidence you said you said?" Yan Qing said coldly.
The eyes of the ministers were also looking at Lu Lan, waiting for her to come up with the evidence that she said that could point to the queen.
"Bring people in." Lu Lan commanded in a solemn voice.
After a short time, the guard escorted a palace maid into the palace.
This palace maid Yan Qinghan knows it, and she is in Du Ruosheng's palace.
The palace maid was pressed and knelt in the main hall by the guards.
Looking at Lu Lan in front of him, as well as Yan Qinghan on the high platform, plus these courtiers of all sizes around her, the palace maid kept trembling.
Until Lu Lan opened her mouth and asked, "Say, what did the queen let you do, and what did you see." "
As soon as the palace maid heard Lu Lan's voice, her body trembled, and she said in a loud voice: "Empress.. Empress. Mother, two days ago.. Let the slave go.. I went to the Tai Hospital to get some medicinal herbs..."Yumeshima Library
"What herbs? Yan Qinghan asked.
He stared straight at this palace maid, paying attention to the changes in every word she said, worried that the words he said would be the slightest disadvantage to Du Ruosheng.
"Yes.. It's Poria cocos..."
The palace maid stammered back.
When everyone heard this, they were still a little puzzled, "Poria? ”
"What do you do with Poria cocos?"
"This Poria doesn't seem to be poison..."
When everyone was talking, the palace maid said: "Niangniang has been feeling a little unwell recently, her mind is uneasy, and she always loves insomnia at night, so she ordered the slave maid to go to the hospital to get some Poria cocos and soak in water to recuperate, but the slave maid... The slave didn't expect the mother.."
The palace maid was still a little choked up as she spoke, and it didn't look like she was lying, Yan Qinghan sat on the dragon chair and listened to her narration little by little.
"You said that the queen asked you to get Poria cocos, what does this have to do with the prince?"
Yan Qing asked in a cold voice.
"The imperial doctor said that although Poria cocos will not have any effect on adults, if it is given to a newborn baby, it is easy to have a big accident, and the concubines... The concubine saw Niangniang yesterday and asked Sister Luoyu to grind the poria into powder, and then went to Xiukang Palace together. ”
The palace maid said again.
Then, Lu Lan opened his mouth: "The mourning family has ordered someone to see it, and traces of Poria cocos powder have been found around the little prince, and the people of the mourning family have also searched for the remaining Poria powder from the queen's palace. ”
After that, Lu Lan gave the bag containing Poria cocos powder in his hand to the eunuchs in the audience, and the eunuchs presented it and handed it to Yan Qinghan.
Yan Qinghan took it, opened it and checked it, it was indeed Poria powder.
"Bring Luoyu up." Then, Lu Lan gave an order, and Luo Yu was also escorted up.
"Get on your knees!" The guards used their strength to make Luoyu kneel in the hall.
Lu Yu was still resisting, and Yan Qinghan could see that she was forced to bring her, but the truth they wanted could only be confirmed from Luo Yu's mouth.
"Luoyu, this palace maid said that the queen once asked her to go to the Tai Hospital to get Poria cocos, but it's true."
Yan Qinghan looked at Luo Yu and asked slowly.
Luo Yu glanced at the palace maid who was just right, her eyes showed a hint of disgust, she pursed her lips before saying, "Back to the emperor, it's true." ”
Even if Luo Yu didn't want to admit it, what the palace maid said was indeed the truth.
Luo Yu didn't expect that this matter would be found by Lu Lan to frame Niangniang.
"Is it true that the queen asked you to grind this thing into powder?" Yan Qinghan was already frowning at this time, if it was really as the palace maid said, I was afraid that this matter would really be even more tricky.
Luo Yu closed her eyes, as if she wanted to escape something, but she still nodded, "However, Niangniang definitely didn't poison the little prince, and the slave didn't say anything!" ”
It's just that Luo Yu's words are useless at the moment, and Lu Lan naturally won't give everyone a chance to believe her.
"Luoyu is the queen's personal girl, and now the queen has been put in prison by the emperor, and now she is not imprisoned, but because you are still useful, do you think you can escape, come on, put her in prison for the mourning family!"
Before Yan Qinghan could speak, Lu Lan immediately ordered.
"Your Majesty, Niangniang really didn't do that, you must believe Niangniang!"
"Your Majesty, believe in Niangniang! The mother didn't do it..."
Luo Yu was escorted down by the guards, her voice getting quieter and quieter, but it was very firm and powerful, until her figure disappeared completely, and the voice seemed to be still echoing.
How could Yan Qinghan not believe it, but now, as Lu Lan said, the certified physical evidence is there, and no strong evidence can be found to prove Du Ruosheng's innocence, and Du Ruosheng is the target of public criticism.
"Your Majesty, now, the Queen Mother has put the evidence in front of us, do you still believe that the Queen Mother is innocent?"
"Your Majesty, think twice, the queen poisoned the prince, and she must not be forgiven!"
In an instant, Du Ruosheng became a cruel, cold-blooded, and ruthless bloodthirsty queen.
Yan Qinghan looked at these people in the audience, but felt a little ridiculous, but it was some evidence that could not stand at all, and now they could be used by them so decisively to accuse an innocent person.
This time, Yan Qinghan would not let them hurt Du Ruosheng no matter what, her hesitation towards Du Ruosheng at that time must have disappointed her to the extreme, if she didn't even believe her now, then what face did she have to face her.
"The matter of the prince, I will personally investigate it thoroughly, and no one is allowed to discuss this matter until the truth is found! Stand down! ”
Yan Qinghan's tone could not be refused, and Lu Lan was naturally unwilling to hear it, but before they could say anything against it, Yan Qinghan had already left the hall.
