Chapter 300: Blindfolding
The medicine boy followed Bai Cheng in the kitchen to boil medicine for His Royal Highness the Prince, Sheng Zi'an ordered the maid to get hot water, wrung a towel and wiped His Royal Highness the Prince's body.
But with the towel in her hand, she didn't know what to do, although there was such a male patient when she was a doctor in modern times, but her relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince was not a simple doctor.
A few days ago......
Sheng Zi'an's face flushed.
What happened with His Royal Highness the Prince that day suddenly appeared in his mind, Sheng Zi'an only felt that his face was getting hotter and hotter, but after all, she was the princess, if she let the maid come, she would have a feeling of green light above her head.
Gritting his teeth and wiping his body for His Royal Highness the Prince, Sheng Zi'an was even more like his face was on fire, and ordered the maid to take the basin away, and sat at the table for a long time before the heat on his face disappeared.
"Niangniang, Jing Zhaoyin sent someone to pass the word and ask if you want to go to listen and interrogate Xiaoshui?" The maid who came in respectfully saluted.
"Of course you have to go, prepare the car." Sheng Zi'an got up and walked out as she spoke, she wanted to see how much Xiao Shui had the ability to reverse black and white, for a master like He Sirui, she could be regarded as benevolent and righteous.
The carriage sped all the way, and finally stopped outside the gate of Jingzhao Yin's Mansion, Sheng Zi'an only brought a maid, after all, His Royal Highness the Prince still needs someone to take care of it, and what she is worried about is that He Sirui still has someone left in the Prince's Mansion.
After all, she can't guarantee that there is no second Xiaoshui, and she will harm His Royal Highness the Prince of the World again for He Sirui.
In the hall, Xiaoshui was tied up by five flowers, but she was not tortured, so that when Xiaoshui saw Sheng Zi'an, he could still scold loudly: "You are murderers!" You deserve your lives! ”
"Smack!"
A loud slap landed on Xiao Shui's somewhat pale face, and it was immediately red and swollen, Sheng Zi'an understood that they were only looking at the identity gap between her and Xiao Shui, and the jailer would give Xiao Shui a slap.
"Concubine Shizi, please be seated." Jing Zhaoyin had a respectful attitude and ordered someone to move the chair, but it was given to Sheng Zi'an, in the final analysis, her status was higher than herself.
"I'm just here to listen today, you don't need to be so polite, it's the same when I sit next to me." Sheng Zi'an walked to the chair on the side and sat down, and when Jing Zhaoyin saw this, he was no longer polite.
"Shackle her away." Jing Zhaoyin said to the jailer on the side.
"My lord, the prince relied on his identity, bullied others, and insulted Miss He, so he was angry and hurt her! You have to call the shots for my young lady! Xiaoshui knelt on the ground, kowtowing and crying.
"My lord, may I ask her a few questions?" Sheng Zi'an said.
"Naturally, princess, please ask." The speed at which Jing Zhaoyin changed his face, Sheng Zi'an was admired, and he was still questioning Xiao Shui sharply just now, but now he was respectful.
But she also knows that if an official can't even do this, he may not be able to sit in the position of Jing Zhaoyin.
"Xiaoshui, since you said that the prince intended to insult He Sirui, you saw it with your own eyes?" Sheng Zi'an asked with a chuckle.
"I saw Miss He being carried out of the Shizi's room covered in blood, and when she came out, she was already out of her mind, and the Shizi still looked like she wanted to insult Miss!" Xiao Shui said confidently.
"He Sirui was indeed killed by the prince, but do you know what the crime of poisoning the prince should be?" Sheng Zi'an asked lightly, but Jing Zhaoyin's face changed suddenly.
I thought it was the son of the world with some hidden disease, but I didn't expect it to be poisoned?
"Nonsense! The prince is pretending at all, he wants to clear his name and kill to pay for his life, my lord, you want to be the master of our master and servant! Otherwise, my young lady will not be blind even under Jiuquan. Xiao Shui cried loudly, Sheng Zi'an shook his head and smiled.
Foolish loyalty can really kill people!
"Pretended? Do you know that the medicine He Sirui gave to His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has even been confirmed by the imperial doctor? The shopkeeper of the pharmacy where she bought the medicine also admitted that she bought it, if He Sirui didn't have that kind of thought, why did she often go in and out of the Shizi's Mansion? And why did you want to drug the son? Doesn't she know what the man will be like when he takes the medicine? Sheng Zi'an asked step by step.
Xiao Shui knelt on the ground, his eyes flickered, and then he looked up at Jing Zhaoyin:
"My lord, my young lady was framed, it was they who forged the evidence that the young lady bought the medicine and framed the young lady, the young lady has always been clean and self-conscious, how could she do such a thing?"
"Clean? That's right, even if you say that the prince bought the medicine by himself and took it by himself, but do you think that if the prince really wants to have that kind of idea about He Sirui, he can use the medicine himself? Or do you want to say that His Royal Highness the Prince of the World will only think about He Sirui after using medicine? Sheng Zi'an's words made Xiao Shui a little flustered.
But she still firmly believes that He Sirui is innocent, and they must be too clever in their methods, so she didn't find evidence.
"The son of the world is drugged is simply a trick, in order to cover up his crime of trying to forcibly occupy the young lady!" Xiao Shui said angrily.
"He Sirui's record of buying medicine has been verified by the emperor, if the prince of the world drugged himself, why did He Sirui leave the medicine powder on his body, but His Royal Highness the prince did not?" Sheng Zi'an asked calmly.
Seeing that she couldn't refute any longer, Xiao Shui raised her head and glared at Sheng Zi'an angrily, unable to answer, Sheng Zi'an hoped that she could say more, the more she said, the more flaws there would be.
"In addition to drugging the prince, He Sirui also threatened the prince with kindness at the beginning, and wanted the prince to marry her, but after being rejected by His Royal Highness the prince, she broke the jar and broke it, and came up with the trick of drugged, but in order to protect her reputation, the prince would rather kill her than have a husband and wife with her."
Sheng Zi'an said, but in Xiao Shui's eyes, Sheng Zi'an even had to insult a person who was already dead.
Such a person can be a princess, which is simply intolerable, but she is a slave, and she doesn't even have a chance to overturn the case for her master.
Jing Zhaoyin was shocked, and Xiao Shui's body suddenly shook, and his eyes looked at Jing Zhaoyin in a panic.
"Xiaoshui, it is clear that He Sirui intended to seduce the prince of the world, and came up with such a means to poison the prince, even if His Royal Highness the prince does not kill her, the laws of the court will not leave her alive, you even beat a rake, can you be guilty?" Jing Zhaoyin shouted.
"My lord! Slaves and maids are wronged! You can't believe them, they're murderers! Murder doesn't pay for life, is there still heavenly reason, and there is still royal law? Xiao Shui cried and said.
Sheng Zi'an looked at Xiao Shui, who was crying silently in front of him, and there was nothing else in his heart except for some emotion.
After these days, she still couldn't see He Sirui's true face clearly, and thought she was innocent, and in the end, even if He Sirui was still alive, they couldn't escape a dead end.
"Should He Sirui be allowed to poison His Royal Highness? And then let the emperor personally order her to be executed? Sheng Zi'an asked, although Xiao Shui was a maid, she still knew what the crime of poisoning the royal family was.
But she decided that it was the prince who killed He Sirui because she couldn't take it by force, and now, no matter what the situation is, it is not good for her, her brain is thinking quickly, but she doesn't say a word.
Jing Zhaoyin looked at Xiao Shui who was still upright just now, but now he can't say a word, but anyone who frames him must be full of flaws when confronting him, and Xiao Shui has enough flaws.
Except for the one-sided statement, all the evidence points to He Sirui drugging His Royal Highness.
"My lord, in addition to Xiao Shui's confession, I have enough witnesses to prove that she is lying!" Sheng Zi'an said loudly, full of anger.
Hearing Sheng Zi'an's words, Xiao Shui suddenly cried: "Miss! The slave and maid are sorry for you, and let you be killed in vain, but the slave and maid cannot avenge you......"
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Shui's body collapsed to the ground, and Sheng Zi'an could naturally see that she was pretending.
"What's going on? Come! Call the doctor. Jing Zhaoyin said unhurriedly, he has long been accustomed to this kind of situation, but he usually can't stand the torture and faints, and he has never seen him faint without torture.
"My lord, Aoyagi also knows a little about medical skills, so it's better to let her take a look, and it will save some time to go to the imperial doctor." Sheng Zi'an said.
"That's great, and I'll ask Aoyagi to take a look." Jing Zhaoyin has always maintained a respectful attitude towards Sheng Zi'an, after all, it is very clear who is black and who is white now.
Even if Xiaoshui is hard-mouthed, the facts are the facts, and her one-sided words cannot be changed.
Aoyagi could also see that she pretended to faint and wanted to delay time, and after taking the pulse, she spoke: "Niangniang, my lord, she just fainted from being too frightened, and the slave maid should wake up after giving her a few stitches." ”
Xiao Shui was shocked, but he still refused to open his eyes, Aoyagi took a few silver needles and pricked them on Xiao Shui's body, Xiao Shui's body shook slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and endured the pain and pretended to be dizzy.
The position of Aoyagi's needles is the most painful, Jing Zhaoyin doesn't know medical skills, so he naturally can't see it, just watching Aoyagi prick several needles, Xiaoshui still hasn't woken up.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Xiao Shui's forehead, his brows frowned slightly, Aoyagi saw all of Xiao Shui's expressions in his eyes, Sheng Zi'an only pretended not to know, looking at Xiao Shui, who pretended to be unconscious, to this point, he still endured pretending to be dizzy, and his endurance was very good.
Jing Zhaoyin watched Qingliu get so many needles, Xiaoshui hadn't woken up yet, even if the case was to be decided, Xiaoshui had to admit his guilt, but now that he was unconscious, he couldn't just end the case, and it was inevitable that some people would say that he was ineffective in handling the case and forcibly forced a confession.
"The princess and concubine, now that the person is unconscious, he can't continue the trial, so it's better to leave the court first, wait for the imperial doctor to come and take a look, and then try it another day." Jing Zhaoyin respectfully asked Sheng Zi'an's meaning.
Sheng Zi'an knew that Xiaoshui pretended to be dizzy, Qingliu pricked her so many needles, and she refused to open her eyes, even if she was tortured, it had no effect, and the hasty verdict made others think that they were weak-hearted.
The body is not afraid of the shadow, Xiaoshui is willing to delay time, she let Xiaoshui drag it, it has been delayed for a long time, the person who is suspected is Xiaoshui, Jing Zhaoyin has been an official for many years, and he is not a fool, but he lacks a confession to make Xiaoshui confess.
In this protracted battle, she and Shizi can accompany her to the end, if she drags it out until Shizi wakes up, it will not be herself who confronts her.
"Okay, just ask the adult to let the imperial doctor come and show her." After Sheng Zi'an finished speaking, he walked out with Qingliu, passed by Xiao Shui, and glanced at her sideways.
