Chapter 0296: Palace Banquet [8]

The others heard them muttering quietly and began to talk in low voices.

Shang Yujiao, who was frowning, put his right forearm on his knee, leaned forward, half-squinted his eyes and asked in a condensed voice, "Imperial Doctor Pei, after your careful examination, what is the cause of their death?" ”

Pei Lixin unhurriedly ripped off the white cloths on the other stretchers one by one, and in comparison, the smell of corpses from the other three corpses was disgusting.

"Back to the emperor, Li Jieyu died of overconsumption of drugs, which led to cardiac arrest." As he spoke, he walked towards the two corpses in the middle, "Everyone, please see, they are the Xiyan girl from Jiyue Fang and the palace maid Yueluo who was burned to death in the Qiling Hall a few days ago. ”

After the two corpses were burned by the fire, the pitch-black skin was already cracked, and it was shaped like black charcoal.

"Imperial Physician Pei, this king heard that Miss Xiyan was exactly the same as Li Jieyu when she died, and her body showed no signs of decay, why is this?" Shang Yici paused slightly, glanced at Su Zhen, slowed down his voice and said, "There is also Aunt Yueluo...... Mother, diagnosed by the imperial doctor, before she died, she had applied a kind of ointment. This medicine came from the hand of Su Gongzi. ”

"His Royal Highness King Qin is right, Miss Xiyan and Li Jieyu have been taking the same medicine for a long time, but the medicine only takes effect after they die. As for the ointment mentioned by His Royal Highness, Weichen has checked it and there is nothing unusual. ”

Between the words, Pei Lixin walked towards the last corpse, which was also the best excuse for those court moths to take down the East Palace, the Taifu Mansion and the General's Mansion.

"As for this last corpse, just as the imperial doctor of the Tai Hospital checked before, the palace maid dumb slave had applied the ointment given by Su Gongzi. However, it was highly toxic in that medicine. Not only does it decay little by little, but after death, people will turn into dry bones in a very short period of time. ”

Shang Yujiao was not as pretentious, covering his mouth and nose, or showing a frightened look like others, and continued to ask lightly, "Jing'er, what is your so-called truth?" ”

Shang Jingyao bit her lip, then took a deep breath and said, "Father, Su Zhen is not a murderer!" ”

"Oh? So have you found the real murderer? ”

"Found it." Shang Jingyao replied firmly.

"Where is this man now?"

"Dead."

"Dead? Your Royal Highness Princess, do you think that you can help Su Zhen clear her name by talking nonsense casually? Yu Wude scoffed.

"Su Gongzi is not wrong, why do you need to wash your name?"

"Princess, why did the dumb slave get hurt? ”

"The reason why the dumb slave was injured was because this princess wanted to snatch Lord Gu's spiritual pet Leshu, and it was the dumb slave who rushed up to block the attack for this princess."

"In this way, the person Su Zhen originally wanted to harm was not a dumb slave, but You, Your Royal Highness the Princess!"

"General Yu doesn't need to provoke, when the Japanese princess and Su Gongzi only meet for the third time, why does he want to harm me? If he wants to harm me, but accidentally injure the dumb slave, why should he save her? If you want to save it, why do you want to poison it? Since he had already been poisoned, why did he kill her in the middle of the night? ”

Shang Jingyao's series of logical questions made Yu Wude speechless.

"Jing'er, you said so much, but you can't prove that Su Hao didn't kill anyone. Instead, you thought of him too much as good and good, and were blinded by that guy's disguise. ”

Originally, when Yue Xian'er was still there, he helped Shang Yici a lot, and for a while, he couldn't see through why 'Shang Jingyao' was backwater, could it be that this girl was really confused by Su Hao in a short period of time?

"Fifth brother, don't you also have no evidence? Why did Su Zhen directly convict Su Zhen of death? You're all just hearsay! You are the king of Luo Qiqin, don't you know what it means to be a person? ”

In the already silent Shaohua Palace, there were obviously thousands of people, but now it suddenly seemed to be an empty hall.

The queen caught a glimpse of Shang Yujiao's face suddenly changed, and hurriedly preemptively scolded, "Jing'er! Don't be presumptuous! ”

"Queen Mother, you once taught Jing'er that a gentleman is an adult, and a gentleman is evil, and a villain is the opposite. Jing'er was ignorant before, and her father and queen mother and grandmother had always been worried about it. In fact, Jing'er doesn't understand, she just doesn't like it. I don't like this palace, I don't like the people in this palace. ”

"......" The queen was angry and wanted to get up, but Shang Yujiao held her hand and said to Shang Jingyao, "Finished!" ”

Shang Jingyao was stared directly by his sharp and wise eyes, her heart was empty, she pursed her lips and said boldly, "Father, the son is willing to vouch for the position of this princess, Su Zhen is definitely not a murderer!" ”

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"Father! You have always been fair and strict! This is right and wrong, anyone with a discerning eye can see it clearly! Do you know that Li Jieyu and Xiyan were easy to get acquainted with outside the palace in their early years. One of them is the popular pillar of Jiyuefang, and his painting skills are already superb, and the other is Jieyu Niangniang, who has been newly canonized for less than three months. They don't seem to have any connection, but in fact they have been secretly in contact. ”

Su Zhen raised her eyebrows, silently listened to Shang Jingyao's nonsense, and inadvertently turned her head, only to see Xiao Chuhong staring at her. touched his nose, and his gaze fell back on Shang Jingyao.

"Jing'er, you said that Yu'er and Xiyan have dealings, but one of them is from Jiangnan and the other is from the desert."

The insiders present laughed in their hearts, and they all wanted to hear how Shang Jingyao lied.

Shang Jingyao's eyes drifted to Gongzi's transcription, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed, "Father, it's true." However, after the investigation of the sons, they... They are for the art of resembling the face, after all, what girl doesn't want to live forever and be beautiful? ”

After the words fell, the official wives and young ladies in the women's table opposite couldn't help but nod.

"Jing'er, do you have any evidence for the bizarre speculation in your mouth?"

"Back to my father, there was before, but now it's gone." Shang Jingyao shrugged, her lips pursed, and her face was full of helplessness.

"What are you talking about?"

"Father, it's not impossible for you to want to know, but the dead are the greatest, and you can't be angry with them!"

"You just put it bluntly, Hugh is going to beat around the bush again." Shang Yujiao said sharply.

"Father, it's not that it's gone, it's actually eaten into their stomachs, which is the medicinal herb that Imperial Doctor Pei said. In order to maintain her appearance, Li Jieyu specially asked the palace maid Yueluo to leave the palace in the name of buying paintings, while Xiyan took the opportunity to hide the medicinal materials in the box, so wouldn't it be seamless? ”

Yu Changqing frowned, after they found out this secret in the Shuyue Palace that day, they immediately asked everyone to keep their mouths shut, how did Princess Jingyao know? And she actually broke the medicinal materials that Li Jieyu took to cause women's infertility into good medicine.

Seeing that everyone was skeptical, Shang Jingyao continued, "Father, do you remember those porcelain dolls?" They're all magical! It was it that killed Yueluo! ”

"Porcelain doll killing? You're making it up too outrageous! ”
