Chapter 544: Breaking the siege
Ji Beihan only felt that he couldn't explain it clearly with ten mouths, kowtowed, put on incense, got up, looked around at his former colleagues, and said loudly, "It seems that this matter has been explained by this king, no matter what, you won't believe this king, and he didn't poison you, right?"
The ministers commented, "We didn't poison us?"
"Yes, all of them were poisoned by people who ate the banquet in the past, how can this be explained?"
"This king only asks one thing, did you eat anything together before eating the banquet?" Ji Beihan asked loudly.
The ministers all shook their heads, but some people whispered, "Yesterday morning, the emperor gave us a happy fruit, do you remember?"
Everyone suddenly said, "It's okay, everyone is fine after eating." ”
Ji Beihan asked, "What kind of happy fruit?"
Everyone couldn't answer, "It's just a fruit like a jujube, it tastes good, the emperor said, it's a tribute, let us all try it, we all ate it, the taste is really delicious, what is the fruit called?"
Everyone thought about it for a long time, but there was no answer, "I just ate it at the time, I didn't ask, but this is the first time I have eaten that kind of fruit." ”
couldn't say the name, Ji Beihan couldn't check it, "Think about it again, what kind of fruit is it?"
"King Ji, you are chasing and asking like this, is it a suspicion that the emperor deliberately let us eat the fruit that will cause diarrhea to frame you?"
"This king did not say this, but if you want to investigate now, you must find out what you have eaten, because the people in this king's house have also eaten the banquet, but none of them have diarrhea, which can only show that you ate something before going to this king's house. ”
"However, the fruit was eaten, there was no discomfort, and after eating the banquet, it began to attack, if there is a problem with the fruit, it will attack before the banquet, King Ji, you say this, it really disappoints us, even if you admit that it is just an accident, we can understand, but what do you mean now? Say that your banquet is fine? There are so many of us, we didn't sleep all night last night, tossing until now, it's a little better, poor Lord Taifu, innocently lost your life, but you are shirking responsibility!"
"Yes, I just want to shirk my responsibility! I didn't expect King Ji to be such a person who didn't take responsibility. ”
"Moreover, the emperor and Concubine Jing also pulled a ...... all night"
Ji Beihan was speechless, very helpless, and Taifu's children cried bitterly, "Ji Beihan, today, I want you to pay for your blood debts!"
The son of the Taifu family shot directly, and hit Ji Beihan's heart with a palm, Ji Beihan easily dodged away, and did not fight back, "Please calm down, if my Ji Mansion makes a mistake, we will definitely admit it, but this matter is definitely not intentional on our part, hundreds of people in the Ji Mansion have eaten the same food, and none of them have an accident." ”
"That's because, you take the antidote in advance, Ji Beihan, don't quibble anymore, no one will believe you, we have been deceived by your sanctimonious image for so many years, and now, you have finally revealed your true nature, first got rid of the emperor, and now, you want to get rid of the new emperor and all our courtiers together, so that you can ascend the throne yourself, right?
These words caused more people to discuss, "God, I didn't expect King Ji to have such a thought." It's horrible. ”
"You ......" Ji Beihan became more and more tired the more he spoke, so he simply didn't want to say anything, shook them away with internal force, and said angrily, "If this king has such a mind, why bother talking nonsense with you? You love to believe it or not, but this matter, this king didn't do it, he didn't do it!"
"Is it so hard to admit your mistakes if you don't change your life? ”
"The Divine Decree to ......"
The father-in-law came in with the holy decree, and everyone knelt down, and there was a lot of noise just now, but it was quiet in an instant.
The father-in-law coughed and began to recite the holy decree, to the effect that King Ji has always been benevolent and will not do anything dirty about poisoning his colleagues, and the emperor is convinced of him, so this matter, there is another strange thing, too Fu De is high and wants the public, but he lost his life because of this trivial matter, it is the loss of the monarch's country, it is the emperor's loss, the emperor is heartbroken, however, the person has passed away, and no matter how much he is investigated, he will not survive, so he also wants his relatives to mourn, as for the person who poisoned, he will definitely investigate it thoroughly to the end, and I hope that the secretary will not hurt the harmony because of this.
The sons of Taifu are naturally unconvinced, but the emperor said that he is convinced of King Ji, and it makes no sense for them to make trouble again, the emperor is obviously protecting King Ji, and they can only consider themselves unlucky, after all, no one can afford to offend.
Immediately afterwards, the father-in-law asked people to bring in a lot of silver, saying that it was compensation for the Taifu, and the sons of the Taifu were all brightened up, and they were busy kowtowing to thank him.
This matter was temporarily stabilized.
Ji Beihan was holding back the fire in his heart, and he had to go back to the palace to thank him, no matter what, it was Junzhu who helped him out of the siege.
Of course, he would not forget the matter of that fruit, and asked to his face, "Your Majesty, the ministers heard that before the ministers went to the palace to eat the banquet, the emperor personally gave them some fruits to eat?
Jun Zhu said calmly, "The fruit, I can't see it with my eyes, so I can't describe it, but it's very similar to dates, I think it's delicious, so I divide it and give it to Zhongqing to taste, does King Ji think that there is a problem with the fruit I gave?"
"The minister didn't know, so I wanted to ask in detail, and asked the emperor to check, what is the name of this fruit?"
Jun Zhu called his father-in-law over and asked him face to face, and his father-in-law replied, "It is the fruit of the Bailan Kingdom, and it is called crispy sweet dates, which are quite big, sweet and delicious." ”
As he spoke, he asked someone to send a few over.
Ji Beihan looked at the fruit, there was nothing special, it was just a few points bigger than the dates that he moved, pinched one and tasted it, it was really sweet and crisp, and there was nothing uncomfortable about eating it, but it was not good to keep it, this fruit was tampered with?
However, Ji Beihan could only think about it in his heart, he couldn't say this, after all, there was no evidence that the emperor came to frame him like this.
Ji Beihan suddenly found that this Jun Zhu was even more difficult to deal with than Jun Qingyan.
Chu Ge also tasted one, and he really didn't have a problem eating it, but the jujube is a thing that is easy to have diarrhea if he eats too much, and if he adds some more ingredients, the effect will be ......
Fang Jing could see that Chu Ge and Ji Beihan were turning a corner, wanting to put the blame on Jun Zhu, and they were immediately unhappy, "Chu Ge, you don't suspect that the emperor is harming you, right? I think, are there any ghosts in your palace?"
"We will check again, thank you to the emperor for relieving the siege for the ministers, and the ministers and their wives retreated first. After Ji Beihan finished speaking, he pulled Chu Ge away.
