Chapter 431: The Emperor Has Died
When the third princess began to speak, the audience suddenly fell silent, this strange tacit understanding made this quiet seem a little embarrassing, and the smile that Li Xiuhua had forced to make collapsed again.
She knew that in the eyes of everyone present now, she was already a watery poplar and a shameless woman, but who could she talk to about the pain in her heart?
Taking a deep breath, Li Xiuhua finally adjusted her mood, and said with a forced smile again: "The unfilial daughter Li Xiuhua wishes her father and the emperor a healthy body in the new year, and her daughter can't always be by her side, but I wish my father everything...... All the best......"
Li Xiuhua said the words of blessing, but in the end, she suddenly choked up, and the originally joyful feast was suddenly dyed with some sadness. Everyone was silent, and Chu Yun, who had always had a very vicious eye and a heart like a stone, was even a little touched at this moment.
To be honest, Chu Yun saw a lot of people crying, in fact, it was easy to tell who was true and who was fake.
Probably, I don't know where it touched Li Xiuhua's heart, making it difficult for her to control her sadness. However, Chu Yun cared more about the last part of Li Xiuhua's congratulatory speech.
Although Li Xiuhua quickly took it back, Chu Yun still caught it, it was a small word that was not fully spoken.
Everything is small......
Except for being careful in everything, Chu Yun couldn't think of any other words.
Probably Li Xiuhua also felt that it was a bit inappropriate to say this kind of thing on this occasion, so he changed it to all the best, a little blunt, but barely passable.
After Li Xiuhua finished saying the congratulations, the field was not quiet for long, Li Ming suddenly laughed, but didn't say anything, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all. Chu Yun was a little dazed, he didn't know what he meant by laughing, this emperor was really not very easy to guess.
Li Xiuhua didn't speak again, and then continued, to Li Shuyuan.
If Li Xiuhua is as miserable as an abandoned woman, then Li Shuyuan is like a resentful woman, exuding an aura that no one or acquaintance should approach, and the originally dignified and graceful princess has become like this, which is really embarrassing.
The greetings he said were not much different from the previous two princesses, and he also wished Li Ming good health and all the best. Li Ming picked up the wine glass and drank it as he wanted.
In the end, it's time for the eldest princess.
The status of the eldest princess is relatively high, so she is sitting next to Li Ming, and after the sisters have congratulated, it will be Li Jiali's turn.
Li Jiali said impassionedly: "My daughter only has three wishes in this life, one is to wish her father to live a long and healthy life, the second is to wish the people to have no worries about food and clothing, and three to wish Xichuan to be prosperous. ”
This, the words are very beautiful, but Li Jiali did this, but it was a foul!
The other three princesses only said some very homely words, and the younger generations wished the elders good health, but when it came to Li Jiali, this was clearly a sign of loyalty and ambition, and it was so great and upright, and at this sensitive time, her thoughts could be said to be known to passers-by.
However, Chu Yun secretly looked at Li Xiuli's expression, she actually didn't have any waves, as if, she had already known that Li Jiali would do such a thing, and Li Shuyuan and Li Xiuhua were the same, their faces were expressionless, uh, these two had given up treatment, and they didn't have much reference value.
Therefore, Chu Yun originally estimated that the other three princesses would glare at Li Jiali angrily, but this scene did not appear.
Li Ming listened to Li Jiali's words, and immediately said three good words in a row, picked up the wine glass and wanted to drink it again, but the embarrassing thing was that there was no wine in the wine glass, and the palace maid who was waiting on the side picked up the wine jug and poured wine for Li Ming, but the wine jug did not pour out the wine.
This was very embarrassing, the palace maid hurriedly knelt down, and before she could say the "slave damn" in her mouth, she was stopped by Li Jiali: "Don't panic, this is a big holiday, don't say anything unpleasant, go down!" ”
Li Jiali made a decision for herself lightly, and did not consider Li Ming's opinion, but Li Ming also seemed to be slow to react, as if she didn't think that Li Jiali was already tentatively encroaching.
And Li Jiali picked up the wine jug beside her and poured a full glass for Li Ming.
Li Ming smiled and praised: "The beauty really has the style of a king, and she is relaxed in everything, so that you can supervise the country, and I don't have to worry about it." ”
Chu Yun: "......"
Chu Yun's heart can be said to be very shocked, when did Li Jiali already do the work of the prince, Chu Yun originally thought that he was just assisting in handling official business, but this was clearly the treatment of the prince.
But when she looked at Li Xiuli in a blink of an eye, she was still expressionless and unfazed, but Chu Yun found that Li Xiuli's gaze would float to the wine glass in Li Ming's hand without a trace.
Chu Yun didn't know how to feel, although he had not yet started everything, even if he had reached all this, it was useless to count it, he was like a character who had opened the perspective of God, but at the same time, because he was from the perspective of God, he could only watch the battle and not participate in it.
Chu Yun watched Li Ming drink that glass of wine, what would happen next, Chu Yun had no eyes to watch, and he didn't dare to deliberately watch it, because Chu Yun felt that he needed to start performing. Stay, how do you show that kind of surprise and surprise?
"Knock ......"
It was the dull sound of the cup falling on the carpet, Li Ming suddenly showed a look of pain, and covered his chest, this sudden change suddenly provoked a burst of exclamation. Mixed in the crowd, Chu Yun's performance, on the contrary, not many people paid attention.
Chu Yun always felt that he had been an extras for a while.
Li Jiali was the closest, and immediately supported Li Ming, and drank: "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" ”
Everyone gathered around one after another, Chu Yun couldn't help but complain in his heart, this emperor had a heart attack, and he was a little out of breath, you guys surrounded the past, are you speeding up his death?
Although he complained like this, Chu Yun followed a principle, that is, to follow the people at all times, come from the masses, go to the masses, help the people, and rob the emperor of oxygen.
The Imperial Physician had already arrived quickly, but by the time the Imperial Physician arrived, the Emperor had already died......
Chu Yun's brain made up his last line: "You guys don't get so close, I think you can still save ......"
On Chinese New Year's Eve, such a big thing happened, and it was expected that Xichuan would shake the whole country, but now, it could not be shaken there. The emperor was cold, so Li Jiali was the highest person present, and she quickly controlled the situation.
The palace guards quickly arrived at the scene, and none of the people who attended this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner could leave.
Li Jiali looked sad, asked the imperial doctor with a heavy face, and said, "Father, what is this reason for him to ......?"
Li Jiali was so sad that she couldn't finish her words, but Chu Yun looked at it coldly, it was all hypocrisy, Li Jiali was not sad at all, and even cheered in her heart. It is enough to see that she is very happy about the current situation.
Chu Yun glanced at Li Xiuli again, and seeing that she was still so calm, Chu Yun was not calm. Dear, you can't do it!
Even if all this is designed by you and can point the clues to Li Jiali, but now that Li Jiali has controlled the situation, when the time comes, black is black, white is white, and you are not far from being cool!
Li Jiali's question can be said to be embarrassing for the imperial doctor, the imperial doctor is a doctor, not a pretend, how can he still analyze the cause of death for you!
However, in the end, he studied medicine, although he was not very professional, but he could still see a little sign of it, besides, as an imperial doctor, he also knew what diseases the emperor had before his body.
The imperial physician asked, "What did Your Majesty eat and drink just now?" ”
When these words were asked, everyone's faces changed slightly, and the implication of the imperial doctor's words was that the emperor died of poisoning?
Li Jiali's face also changed, but there was joy in her eyebrows and eyes.
This was delighted, but it made Chu Yun confused, that, did he make a mistake......
"Father, he just drank a few glasses of wine and ate a few mouthfuls of food, and we have all eaten these wines and dishes."
Li Jiali seemed to be justifying, but as she spoke, she handed the wine jug just now to the imperial doctor, and said, "This is the wine that my father drank just now, and I drank it before." ”
The imperial doctor took the wine jug, sniffed at the spout, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and said, "There is a foxglove flower in here!" ”
"What!"
The people in the room were shocked, and the imperial doctor explained: "Your Majesty suffered from heart palpitations a few years ago, and it was all treated by rehmannia flowers, but this medicine should not be overdosed, if it is overdosed, for Your Majesty, it is tantamount to intestinal poison, and if Her Royal Highness the princess eats a little by mistake, it will not be a big problem." ”
After the imperial doctor said these words, he suddenly woke up, and he was afraid that something big had happened......
This is involved in the royal scandal, the emperor's heart palpitations, only a few princesses know, and the treatment of foxglove flowers, only the princesses know. Before the dinner began, the emperor had already consumed the foxglove flower, and it should not be difficult for the princesses to know, so this should be a deliberate murder......
Even the imperial doctor can figure out what he can understand, how can these people who specialize in intrigue, not understand.
There are four princesses who are suspicious, and at this table dinner, the palace maids who went out to serve have a total of three concubines, four princesses, and three concubines. The third princess and the second princess can almost recognize two good people, it shouldn't be them, the three concubines are even more impossible, and the emperor's death will not benefit them at all.
The most suspicious ones are Li Jiali and Li Xiuli.
But from Chu Yun's point of view, he suddenly couldn't guess who did it.
Both are possible.
Li Jiali is suspicious, because of the joy she shows, Chu Yun thought carefully, before she asked the maid to retreat, and then poured the wine herself, which is also like a premeditation.
Chu Yun felt a little strange just now, the palace maid who served didn't know how to have no wine in the pot, this should be intentional.
Then there is the point where Li Xiuli is suspicious, she has been looking at the cup, and she has almost told Chu Yun that she knows that there is something in it that can be fatal.
So the question is, who did this thing, which can be regarded as poison, do it?
Who instructed the palace maid who should pour wine for the emperor?
There is only one answer, and it is one of two choices.
But at this time, Chu Yun couldn't choose it. Of course, it doesn't matter whether it can be selected or not, because at this time it is already Li Jiali's home field.
Li Jiali did not directly point the finger at Li Xiuli, but ordered: "Check it for me!" Who prepared this wine? ”
After speaking, Li Jiali's majestic gaze swept over Li Shuyuan's face, past Li Xiuhua, and finally to Li Xiuli, her eyes were cold, as if she didn't care about sisterhood at this time.
"It's ridiculous to blame me with such low-level means, and soon, the truth will come out."
Li Jiali stared at the audience, but her gaze met Li Xiuli for a longer time, and this sentence seemed to be said to Li Xiuli alone.
Soon, the person who went to investigate came back, something happened, the people in the imperial dining room couldn't escape, and the person who made and delivered the dinner party was quickly arrested and questioned, and the person who delivered the wine, named Xiao Anzi, immediately cried when he saw this posture.
Li Jiali asked: "Did you do anything on the way to deliver this wine?" ”
Xiao Anzi hurriedly replied: "No." ”
"You're lying!" Li Jiali broke off, and the momentum of the strong woman frightened Xiao Anzi from kneeling to throwing herself to the ground.
"Say, who told you to do it, otherwise don't blame Princess Ben for razing your ten clans!"
When Li Jiali asked this sentence, Chu Yun felt that it was not good, this rhythm was wrong, Chu Yun imagined that Li Xiuli should be calculating Li Jiali, but from the current point of view, it seems that Li Jiali is calculating Li Xiuli?
As Chu Yun expected, that little Anzi, who seemed to be intimidated by Li Jiali, confessed in a panic and said, "It's something that the fourth princess asked the slave to put away." ”
"You're lying!"
Chu Yun maintained his sick body and retorted with great difficulty: "Xiuli has always been with me, and we also entered the palace together, and we have been sitting down here all the time, and we have never left halfway, how can we drive this person to put yellow flowers in His Majesty's wine?" ”
Chu Yun coughed heavily twice when he said this, which made people worry, this person should not cough up blood......
And Chu Yun's words immediately aroused a strong reaction from Xiao Anzi: "The slave didn't lie, it was Sister Mingyue who came to spread the news, she said that these medicines were for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to make wine and tonic, so the slave dared to put it in, otherwise where would the slave dare to touch the wine of several highnesses!" ”
"Who are you talking about Sister Mingyue?"
Li Jiali didn't wait for Chu Yun to answer, so she inserted forcefully and asked a very critical question, Xiao Anzi was already answering questions at this time, he looked around, and then pointed to a palace maid and said, "She is Sister Mingyue......",
Everyone followed his fingers and saw the palace maid with a pale face but a resolute face.
She is clearly the palace maid who poured wine......
