In the dormitory, Mu Qianxia, the queen mother, and the prince anxiously waited for the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment. Outside, the concubines and princesses of the palaces were also waiting in the courtyard outside, presumably the matter of Mu Chenyi vomiting blood and falling into a coma had spread to the mansions of the officials outside the palace, and I don't know how many people began to move.

The Imperial Doctor slowly stood up and walked in the direction where Mu Qianxia and the others were standing.

"Imperial Doctor, how is the emperor's illness? When can I wake up? Didn't the emperor just be weak and weak in his limbs before? How can you vomit blood and fall into a coma now?" The queen looked at the imperial doctor nervously, and even the words she uttered became incoherent.

"Queen Mother, with all due respect, the emperor is a manifestation of poisoning. Just now, Weichen has used a silver needle to stabilize the toxins in the emperor's body, and it will neither attack nor deteriorate in the short term. After discussing with the rest of the imperial doctors and poison doctors, Wei Chen will start to detoxify the emperor. ”

"What? How could the emperor be poisoned? The things that the emperor comes into contact with on weekdays will go through layers of screening, and the daily diet will also be specially tried by someone to determine that it is non-toxic before it is presented to the emperor. How could the emperor be poisoned?" The queen exclaimed incredulously.

"Imperial Doctor, do you know what kind of poison is in the imperial brother?" Mu Qianxia asked calmly. If someone didn't do it deliberately, how could the royal brother be poisoned? Thinking of the sudden illness of the imperial brother without warning before, Mu Qianxia felt more and more that all these things were deliberately done by someone. However, no matter who the other party is, she will do whatever it takes to find the other party out.

"This, the emperor is poisoned by spices." The Imperial Physician hesitated for a moment and replied honestly.

"Spices?" Mu Qianxia frowned and said suspiciously.

"Because the emperor is busy with political affairs in the court, he often suffers from insomnia at night, and lack of sleep is particularly prone to headaches. In order to have a good night's sleep, the emperor once asked Weichen privately and asked Weichen to prescribe some medicine. In order to improve the efficacy of the medicine, Weichen also allocated special spices to the emperor and set them off in the palace to calm the nerves. It's just that the emperor asked Weichen privately about this matter, and no one else knew, so Weichen hesitated just now. ”

"Then can the imperial doctor explain that the emperor was poisoned by that spice?" The prince spoke in a deep voice.

"It's a highly toxic product produced by mixing sandalwood with lotus pollen."

"Lotus pollen? Isn't this the fragrance of the eldest princess? A palace maid behind the queen exclaimed.

The imperial physician took a step forward, said "offended", closed his eyes and sniffed lightly on Mu Qianxia's body, then took two steps back and opened his eyes, "That's right, it is indeed the fragrance of the eldest princess." The Imperial Physician affirmed the palace maid's answer.

"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, do you have to give us an explanation now?" The queen said coldly.

"This princess has nothing to explain, if it wasn't done by this princess, it wasn't done by this princess, and this princess won't carry the black pot for others casually, and naturally she won't shirk it at will." Mu Qianxia said disdainfully.

"Heh," the queen sneered, "quibbling." ”

"Is this princess quibbling, isn't the queen's heart very clear?" Mu Qianxia asked rhetorically.

"Hmph," the queen snorted coldly, "Come on, search for the palace." ”

"Bold, who dares to do it?" Mu Qianxia stood there with a cold face, and the coercion exuded from his body made the people around him shudder, and for a while, no one dared to take a step forward. Even the queen couldn't help but want to take a few steps back at that moment.

"Hongu will come by himself." The queen waved away the palace maid beside her and walked towards Mu Qianxia.

"Queen Mother, you want to search the body of this princess so much, do you know that this princess has something on her body that should not be carried?" Mu Qianxia raised her eyebrows and asked with a sneer.

Up to now, if Mu Qianxia still doesn't know anything, it will inevitably be too simple and brainless. Regardless of whether the queen finds evidence from her today or not, she will take action against her. The royal brother is now unconscious, and he can no longer protect her, if she is the queen, I am afraid she will choose to make a move at this time. The queen has been in charge of the six palaces for so many years, and it is impossible for the palace to have no manpower. And she herself has moved out of the palace for a long time, and she has long since stopped paying attention to the things in the harem, so naturally she has no life, and she only brought Liuli into the palace today, it seems that it will be difficult for her to go out today. Mu Qianxia smiled bitterly, sure enough, if he didn't listen to Gu Li's words, he would be unlucky.

Thinking about all this, Mu Qianxia looked away, didn't the queen want to drag her into the water, how could she let the queen be alone?

Mu Qianxia stepped forward again, looked directly into the queen's eyes, and her tone was even more aggressive, "Queen Mother, only the murderer will know everything about the matter, how do you know so much about it?" ”

"This, this palace, this palace......" Xu is Mu Qianxia's aura was too strong, and the queen inexplicably felt that her heart was weak, and her confidence was obviously insufficient, and her words began to become intermittent.

Seeing this, the crown prince immediately interrupted the queen's words, reversed the spearhead, and pointed directly at Mu Qianxia, "Eldest princess, should you also explain why you have the fragrance of lotus flowers on your body?"

Mu Qianxia secretly praised the prince for his unruly situation, and he did have the demeanor of being an emperor, but he was too young and vigorous.

"The lotus fragrance on the princess is specially smoked when the princess first entered the palace, which is also a habit that the princess has always maintained. It's just that the previous incense of this princess ran out, and the one she uses now is new. Mu Qianxia replied lightly.

"Oh? Such a coincidence? The eldest princess has not entered the palace for a long time, why did she change to a new fragrance as soon as she entered the palace. Why did the previous one run out so coincidentally? Moreover, in this season, there is no lotus bloom at all, how can there be the fragrance of the lotus, if it is not for the eldest princess who specially ordered someone to find and prepare, the palace really can't think of any other reason. The prince said sarcastically.

yes, how can it be so coincidental? She had always thought wrongly, thinking that the queen had deliberately framed her, but now that she thinks about it carefully, it is indeed as the prince said, the incense she used before was prepared in advance by the next people, if it is used up, those people will prepare it in advance, how can there be a temporary preparation for changing the fragrance today? How can those subordinates ensure that they will not change temporarily because they don't like the taste?

Unless, today, it was all planned in advance; Unless, she has no time to worry about these because she has something urgent to enter the palace; Unless......

The more Mu Qianxia thought about it, the more she felt that her back was cold, and the more she felt that the people behind the scenes were unfathomable.

That person not only asked people to anonymously report the four princes' intention to rebel in advance, but also placed the evidence of the crime in the palace of the four princes in advance; and secretly helped the fourth prince's personal servant Wang Qi to enter the princess's mansion and successfully met her; I also knew that she would not sit idly by, and would definitely enter the palace to ask to see the imperial brother, and then learn in advance that the emperor had recently asked the imperial doctor to secretly prepare the medicine because of a headache, and replaced her daily incense with spices that could cause poisoning; In the end, she took her hand and poisoned the royal brother, vomiting blood and falling into a coma.

The man didn't show up from beginning to end, but he calculated everyone's heart so thoroughly that how many people became a pawn in his entire game. Not only is he clever and resourceful, but his power should not be underestimated, but he does not know what his purpose is. If you are an enemy of such a person, it is tantamount to a mayfly shaking a tree, and you will not measure your own strength. However, for the sake of the people you care about, for the people you want to protect, even if you are an enemy, what does it matter?

The prince saw that Mu Qianxia was stunned and didn't say a word, and the curvature of the mockery at the corners of his mouth became more and more obvious, "Eldest princess, do you feel that your plan has been exposed clearly, and you can no longer find a reason to quibble?" ”

"Heh, this princess said that for what she has not done, this princess will never admit it. The royal brother is so good to the princess, why did the princess attack the royal brother? Losing an umbrella for nothing, are you stupid to be a princess? This princess kindly advises you to find someone to blame in the future, and you must find someone who can convince everyone, rather than a person who can see the problem with a discerning eye, after all, everyone is not like you, they are all fools. Mu Qianxia sneered.

"You, originally this palace also planned to save you some face, after all, you are the aunt of this palace, since you toast and don't eat and drink, don't blame this palace for being polite." The prince gritted his teeth.

"How did you really think of this princess as your aunt from the bottom of your heart? How have you ever been really polite to this princess? In this case, why do you have to act cowardly and pretend to be a good person, you are not tired, this princess is tired of watching you act. Mu Qianxia sneered mercilessly.

Since the eldest princess said so, the palace naturally did not live up to the eldest princess's "point". You said that if this palace declared to the outside world that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess would have belonged to her for a long time, but the emperor forcibly separated you and forcibly ordered you to marry far away and kiss Dongqin, and your sweetheart blamed and secretly executed. Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who knew the truth, was resentful of the emperor, so she secretly killed the emperor while he was sick in bed. What does the eldest princess think of this reason?"

"This is just your one-sided words, this princess is voluntary and pro-Dongqin, and she is not forced by the imperial brother." Mu Qianxia sneered.

But who would believe? Since ancient times, how many princesses have committed suicide in their own mansions because of their friendship, and how many princesses have left their home country with resentment and gone to a foreign land. You said that there are a few people who will believe that the eldest princess is willing to marry away from another country. If there are a few "loyal" subordinates in the eldest princess's mansion who stand up and correct them, does Her Royal Highness the eldest princess think that everyone believes in you or the palace? ”

"You, it's just despicable and shameless, this palace really underestimated you in the past." Mu Qianxia sneered, "You are just a chess piece in the hands of others, sooner or later there will be a day when you will be out, you better hope that day will not come sooner." ”

"So what, as long as this palace achieves its own goal, even if it becomes someone else's pawn and someone else's gun?"

"You're crazy." She and the royal brother both looked away at the prince. Originally, I just thought that he was young and impulsive, but I never thought that he would be crazy to achieve his goal.

"Even if you are a madman, you are much better than a dead man, Your Highness the eldest princess, what do you say?" After that, he didn't look at Mu Qianxia anymore, "Come on, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess intended to murder the emperor, but she was accidentally discovered, so she was put in the prison first, and then interrogated on a later date." ”

"Yes."
