She confessed. Shen Xiao said lightly.

Hua Jingyao asked, "Is she poisoned?" Don't you let people carry her out? ”

"Solved." Shen Xiao said.

Hua Jingyao frowned, solved? That's it?

She pushed open the door and saw Xiangzhu standing there in a daze, his eyes glazed and empty, his mouth open, but he didn't look like he was going to speak.

"Is she alright?" Hua Jingyao couldn't help but ask,

"In another stick of incense, she'll be able to move." After Shen Xiao finished speaking, he strode away.

Yin Zhutou looked at Miss Hua who was hanging here, looked helpless, called the two female jailers, and chased Shen Xiao away.

Hua Jingyao was speechless for a while, and she didn't know what kind of poison Shen Xiao used for Xiangzhu, which would not kill people, but turned people into marionettes.

Fortunately, Shen Xiao didn't go anywhere else, and he and Yin Zhutou met the eldest prince one after another.

When Hua Jingyao walked in, she heard Shen Xiao say, "...... Xiangzhu didn't know that she was a ghost, she always thought that she was testing medicine for Nie Zhengqi. ”

"Test?" The eldest prince asked curiously.

"Yes, Xiangzhu and Nie Zhengqi grew up together, and watched Nie Zhengqi endure the pain of illness. In recent years, Nie Zhengqi's health has become worse and worse, and two years ago, Worry-free Gongzi began to develop a secret medicine for Nie Zhengqi, but this medicine needs a person with the same disease as Nie Zhengqi to test the drug, Xiangzhu volunteered to be a drug tester. Shen Xiao said.

Hua Jingyao couldn't help but interject and asked, "But Xiangzhu is not sick, how can she test Nie Zhengqi's medicine?" ”

Shen Xiao glanced at her and said, "She took the medicine, and after taking that medicine, she will be able to be the same as Nie Zhengqi." ”

"Huh? And this medicine? Hua Jingyao remembered that the eldest prince said that Yue Li diagnosed Nie Zhengqi with defects in his internal organs, could it be that after taking that medicine, he would be able to make his heart lack a corner and make a hole in his liver?

This time Shen Xiao did not answer, and continued to say to the eldest prince: "After Xiangzhu took this medicine, she had a reaction after more than ten days, she often felt unwell, and soon, the carefree prince came again, he brought a secret medicine to cure the disease, and after Xiangzhu took this medicine, the physical discomfort disappeared. But it didn't take long for her to feel unwell again, and after taking the medicine, she was relieved again, and so on for two years. ”

The eldest prince asked, "Who is the carefree son?" ”

Shen Xiao said: "Xiangzhu doesn't know the true identity of the carefree son, Nie Zhengqi often meets him in the Zhenlong Pavilion. ”

"Zhenlong Pavilion?" The eldest prince was stunned, and there were almost no people in the capital who didn't know about the Zhenlong Pavilion. Although as a prince who has received a strict education since childhood, he also knows what the Zhenlong Pavilion is for.

That's a gambling house!

Nie Zhengqi, a person with a broken body, would actually go to Zhenlong Pavilion.

Shen Xiao obviously didn't want to dwell too much on this issue, he continued: "Xiangzhu hates his family, he has hated it since he was a child, and he gritted his teeth with hatred. She said that as long as they lived, they would suck her blood, so she poisoned the tea and food she gave them to drink, and the food she ate was all poisoned, and as for her mother, it was indeed smeared on silver. She said that she felt that she had done the right thing, not only helping her son, but also allowing herself to get her wish. ”

Shen Xiao is not good at telling stories, so when he said this, his voice was as flat as usual, and he couldn't hear the ups and downs of emotions.

But it still only sends chills down people's backs.

Hua Jingyao sighed, she remembered Xiang Zhuniang's ugly state of hating to peel off her daughter's skin and bones, so she could only say retribution in her heart.

The mother has never regarded her daughter as her own flesh and blood, but as a tool to make money, so in this world, not everyone is worthy of being a parent.

The eldest prince thought for a while, and said to Yin Zhutou: "Take Nie Zhengqi to the yamen." ”

When the case is found here, Nie Zhengqi should be arrested.

What the eldest prince did was not wrong.

But in his previous life, what did the eldest prince do?

In the previous life, he did not recognize the life of ghosts, and there was no doubt about the death of Huang Cheng and Huang Xiaoan.

Since Huang Cheng and Huang Xiaoan have no suspicions, then they will not find out Xiangzhu, let alone let Xiangzhu's confession happen, so at this time in the previous life, the eldest prince should not have sent someone to arrest Nie Zhengqi.

It's not Nie Zhengqi who was arrested, so who is it?

Who did the eldest prince arrest and cause more than a dozen people to die?

Hua Jingyao hated to give herself a slap, in her previous life, why didn't she ask clearly.

She really wanted to ask the eldest prince, if Xiangzhu didn't confess, then how would he investigate?

But she couldn't ask, it would be abrupt to ask, and she couldn't say that she had lived a lifetime, and then she didn't know what trouble would get there.

Maybe there will be a scholar who can't make it to her and ask her for the next exam question.

There will also be a bunch of people who don't know each other, and they come to her with a big belly to ask her if the baby in this belly is male or female.

Even the emperor's uncle would ask her when there was a flood and when there was a drought.

Hua Jingyao just thought about it like this, and she was so frightened that she wanted to hide.

So she can't say it, and she can't say it if she kills it.

But to everyone's surprise, Nie Zhengqi did not come.

The people sent came back soon, Nie Zhengqi was sick, and the imperial doctor from the Tai Hospital was in the house, treating Nie Zhengqi.

The eldest prince asked Yin Zhutou to bring Nie Zhengqi over, but he only brought it over, and he didn't say anything else.

Therefore, this is not a formal arrest, but just a person to understand the situation.

Besides, with Nie Zhengqi's identity, although he has no official status, if Shuntianfu wants to arrest people, he must also have official documents.

Just send a few officials, let alone arrest people, maybe people will be blasted out with big sticks.

Hua Jingyao let out a long sigh of relief, maybe her exhalation was a little loud, and the eldest prince looked at her.

"Cousin, shouldn't I bring Nie Zhengqi to the yamen?" The eldest prince asked.

Hua Jingyao smiled and said, "It's not that my cousin can't bring people, but he can't bring them at all, if my cousin doesn't believe it, why don't you try again tomorrow to see if Nie Zhengqi is still sick, and try again in three days to see if his illness is cured?" ”

The eldest prince couldn't help but smile bitterly, and shook his head helplessly, he still lacked experience, if it was Nali Fu Yin, he would never go to Minghui's county lord's house to arrest people recklessly.

At this moment, Hua Jingyao suddenly asked, "Cousin, if you don't find out the ghost Xiangsheng, how will you investigate this case?" ”

The eldest prince was stunned, how would he check? Of course, he prepared a lot of little girls who love to eat and play, and coaxed his little cousin to come to the yamen to help him investigate the case.

You can't say it.

The eldest prince thought about it again and said, "In that case, I won't suspect Nie Zhengqi, I think I might go to check Nie Yuanshen's outer room." ”
