Chapter 488: Flag
Facing the interrogation of these two people in front of her, the palace maid was afraid and confused, she clearly didn't do anything, but she heard someone order her to take this trip to the emperor, and she didn't suspect it, she came with the decoction, and she went to the imperial dining room to get it herself, and she didn't meet anyone on the way, nor did she contact anyone, how could a good decoction be poisonous?
I'm afraid that as early as in the imperial dining room, this decoction was already poisonous, why was I so unlucky to be on this pot.
"The slave and the maid really don't know anything, the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid just came with the soup and medicine, it was ordered by someone else, and the slave and the maid really didn't poison the emperor's slave and maid with the soup."
The little palace maid kept kowtowing, always denying this fact, but she was extremely afraid in her heart, it was not that the poisoning had never happened before, but the maid who was reading it, no matter how much she asked, no one would spare her, and now this incident actually happened to her, will the emperor really spare himself?
Seeing that he was so angry, once the emperor was angry, his life would not be guaranteed, but this matter really has nothing to do with him, why was he so unlucky and involved in this matter?
Mu Xiwan looked coldly at the palace maid who kept kowtowing on the ground, although she knew that the poison just now was brought by her, but now there was a trace of doubt in her heart, the maid's appearance seemed to be really not made by her.
Mu Xiwan naturally doesn't want to wronged people in vain, not to mention that in this complex palace, it is normal to be used, maybe this palace maid is being used, but there is another possibility that this function is too good to act, and it can't be decided for a while, it seems that you have to ask for details.
"Tell me if you ran into anyone else on the way? Could it be someone else who took this opportunity to poison the decoction? ”
Mu Xiwan looked at the little palace maid and asked.
The little palace maid shook her head, and then said with a serious face: "The slave maid didn't see anyone when she brought this bowl of soup and medicine from the imperial dining room, and even if she did, she didn't let him touch this medicine, and it should be impossible to poison him halfway." ”
"What you say is true? This is a very serious matter, and if you lie, your life may not be lost, and I don't want you to waste your life to save anyone else. ”
Mu Xiwan looked at the little palace maid, but he was thinking about other possibilities in his mind, if what the little palace maid said was true, then he hadn't met anyone halfway, and this reading was probably already in the imperial dining room.
"The slave and maid have been helpless since childhood, and it is already a blessing for the slave to be a slave and maid in the palace, how dare I do such a hurtful thing, let alone the emperor, even if I give the slave and maid a hundred guts, the slave and the maid will not dare, the princess, the slave and the maid are really wronged."
The little palace maid was already in tears at this time, he really didn't know how to explain, there was only so much he could say, but believe it or not was not in his hands at all.
At the beginning of her tearful appearance, the emperor also frowned.
"If you confess and be lenient, I can spare your life, but if you insist on lying, don't blame me for convicting you in the name of killing the king, and your hair will be ruined at that time."
"Your Majesty, the slave and maid really don't know anything, this matter is really not done by the slave and the maid, although the slave and the maid know that the emperor may not believe in the slave and the maid, but please don't take the slave's life lightly, at least find out."
Although the little palace maid was very scared, she still straightened her waist and then said.
Seeing that she really didn't look like she did it, and she could still do this before she died, the emperor was also a little frightened, and then nodded and said, "Forget it, you can retreat first." ”
The little palace maid was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly nodded and thanked: "Thank you, the emperor, it's really not a slave to do it, the emperor is wise." ”
After finishing speaking, he left as if he was fleeing, but he was not weak-hearted, but worried that if the emperor regretted it, his life might really be in danger.
"Your Majesty, did you let her go so easily? What if it was really him? If he is let go, he will probably run. ”
Mu Xiwan didn't understand what the emperor was thinking about now.
"You should also see that this matter was not done by that little palace maid, so why should we embarrass him? But it's so bold to dare to poison me. ”
"Your Majesty, in fact, I have a guess, I have a good chance of knowing who the poisoner is."
Mu Xiwan said after thinking about it carefully.
Hearing her words, the emperor raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? Who wants to harm me? ”
"Murong Ye."
Mu Xiwan said word by word, at this time, she already hated this person, and nine times out of ten he did the poisoning, after all, this was completely consistent with his purpose, and if the emperor died, the court must be even more messy, and this scene would help him at that time.
"Is that him? Why did he poison me? ”
The emperor frowned and said angrily.
"The news of His Royal Highness the Prince's disappearance, I didn't tell anyone, but there are few people who know the news, they didn't say it, the last person to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at that time was Murong Ye and his party, they deliberately spread this news must be to cause panic, if the emperor also has an accident at this time, presumably the court will be chaotic, and the entire Darong may be ......"
Mu Xiwan didn't continue to say it halfway through, but the emperor naturally understood the meaning of her words.
"What a boldness, he actually dared to poison me."
The emperor slammed the table, and the whole person was already out of breath.
Mu Xiwan shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be the poison he personally inscribed, there may be other chess pieces of him in the palace, but this matter should have been planned by him, and I have a plan to lure out that person." ”
"Say."
The emperor glanced at him, and then asked curiously.
"We want to spread the news of the emperor's poisoning, and the person who poisoned it will definitely come to confirm it in person, and we will plan it."
Mu Xiwan thought about it and then proposed, this is the most advantageous way at present.
The emperor also nodded, and did not refuse, after all, this matter is so serious, as long as the murderer can be caught, nothing else, not to mention that he is not such an unreasonable person.
