Chapter 51: Body Search
In front of everyone's eyes, Tong Qingyan looked at the excited Princess Huai, sighed in her heart, and was just about to stand up, when Song Zhan moved first.
"This matter involves the Huai Wangfu, and Weichen should also cooperate with Lord Yan in investigating the case, and ask the emperor for permission."
"That's right."
Emperor Jia Kang reclined on his seat and nodded towards Yan Shangshu, and the eyes of everyone in the hall wandered between Song Zhan and Tong Qingyan, but Princess Huai was even more anxious.
"Zhan'er, what do you do with this, you ......"
"Lord Yan, you ask."
Song Zhan bluntly interrupted Princess Huai's words, and didn't even give him a look, and Yan Shangshu didn't bother to pay attention to the internal lawsuits of other family members, so he straightened up and began to routinely.
"Princess Fang Caihuai said that this matter is related to the lord of Yanyang, and His Royal Highness the Prince of the World stood up and said, is there any hidden secret?"
"There is nothing to hide, what the mother concubine said is talking about milk tea recipes......"
"I gave the milk tea recipe." Tong Qingyan calmly left her seat and stood in the main hall, looking at Yan Shangshu calmly in Song Zhan's complicated eyes, "Since today's matter has involved me, I should face Yan Shangshu's investigation directly." ”
Yan Shangshu glanced at the generous little girl, and felt some admiration in his heart, getting involved in such a thing, ordinary people would be anxious to clear themselves, this county lord's demeanor is okay.
In fact, Yan Shangshu thought too much, Tong Qingyan purely felt that it was not about herself, even if someone wanted to frame her, she had to be framed, and now she was afraid of being nervous or something.
"The county lord said that this milk tea recipe is yours?"
"Yes, I researched the recipe, and when Princess Huai went south to worship her ancestors and lived in the Governor of Changchun Mansion, I dedicated the recipe to her."
"Princess Huai, is what the county lord of Yanyang said right?"
"Yes."
"Then can the county lord of Yanyang write down this recipe for the imperial doctor to see."
"Yes."
The recipe is actually nothing unusual, but it is added with some mung beans when boiling milk, and after boiling, the beans are filtered out and there is no fishy smell.
The imperial doctors also came to this conclusion after reading the prescription, there was no problem with the prescription, and Princess Huai also read the prescription to confirm that it was correct.
Tong Qingyan's calm appearance made everyone return to the original doubts about this matter, there is no problem with this recipe at all, but the third princess did drink Princess Huai's milk tea before the accident, isn't it still Princess Huai's suspicion.
Of course, Princess Huai also understands that her current situation is very bad, but she doesn't know how to prove her innocence, and she can't climb Tong Qingyan, so her brain is even more confused.
King Huai, who had been pretending to be dead, glanced at Princess Huai, and snorted lightly in his nose, this woman is really useless, she only entered the palace for so long, and she will cause trouble as soon as she enters the palace.
Originally, it was taboo to bring outside food when entering the palace, which was completely handing the handle to others, and it was really an ignorant woman, who actually dragged her feet.
Tong Qingyan glanced at Princess Huai sympathetically, this woman is really unlucky, now there is no one to help her speak, King Huai doesn't care about anything, even his own son has a cold face, it can be seen that he wants to ruthlessly give this dizzy old mother some color.
Watching the drama and watching the play, Tong Qingyan will not really ignore Princess Huai, so she will rush to the identity of her mother-in-law, Tong Qingyan feels that she should also come out of this.
"Lord Yan, I have clues to provide."
"Oh? What clues does the county lord have? ”
"I can return Princess Huai's innocence with this clue."
Tong Qingyan's words made Chen Yan's eyes light up when she was anxious and had nothing to say, if she hadn't told her reason to pay attention to her demeanor, Chen Yan couldn't wait to rush over and hug Tong Qingyan now, she had never felt that this Miss Tong San was so pleasing to the eye.
"I don't know if the evidence of the Lord of Yanyang is human or physical evidence?"
"The witness, that witness is me." Regardless of the uproar in the hall, Tong Qingyan looked coldly at the maid kneeling there, and saluted Emperor Jiakang, "The emperor is above, what Erchen said is not half a lie, Erchen saw it with his own eyes in Cining Palace, this maid pulled the sleeve of the third emperor's sister-in-law at that time, and the third emperor's sister-in-law did not drink Princess Huai's milk tea." ”
Princess Huai's heart fell completely, and after slowly sitting down, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, and glared at the panicked maid with some hatred.
"What the county lord said is right, what you maid said before was a lie? Say, why did you frame Princess Huai!? ”
"The slave didn't dare to lie, the slave and the maid ripped off the sleeves of the three princesses at that time, but the three princesses drank it or not, the slave and the maid really didn't know. The slave maid thought that the three princesses had an accident after drinking milk tea, but it was also because the imperial doctors said that there was no problem with the diet on the table, and the slave maid thought about it, and the three princesses had only been exposed to that milk tea, could it be ...... Could it be something else? ”
The milk tea tea set of the third princess and the bottle of milk tea for Princess Huai have long been cleaned, the evidence is difficult to query, and the maid's words can be explained, Yan Shangshu felt extremely headache for a while, and there was no clue at all? !
"Your Majesty, the concubines are a little puzzled, if the incense in the three princesses is contaminated in the palace, most of the medicines are in the palace, and all the medicines in the palace are in the hospital, and no one has stolen it to find out. If there is no one in the palace, is it possible that it was brought in from outside the palace? ”
Concubine Hui hesitated to open her mouth to break the deadlock, Yan Shangshu also nodded approvingly, as early as when he was named by Jiakangdi to take charge of the case, he had already asked Shunxi to check the medicinal materials of the Tai Hospital, and there should be a result soon.
When Shunxi, who went to the Tai Hospital to check the medicinal materials, came back, Concubine Hui finished saying those words and directly reported the results of the inspection, and the medicine in the Tai Hospital was not missing at all, so the incense was not stolen from the Tai Hospital.
Now the spearhead of the matter is faintly pointing to the outside of the palace, and the civil and military officials in the palace and their families are all concerned, why is this matter getting more and more nonsense, how can it become that someone outside the palace wants to harm the three princesses?
"Your Majesty, now that it has reached this point, the concubines may need to be searched."
The concubine looked at the eyes of the audience, and asked Emperor Jiakang for instructions, since there is no problem in the palace, the problem lies in the people who entered the palace today, and the search is the fastest way and the most offending way.
"Search, I must find out today, Li Zhong loves concubine, arrange for men and women to check separately, be sure to check carefully."
"Yes, the minion obeys."
"Yes, the concubine obeys."
When things came to this point, the body search was unavoidable, and everyone got up one after another and divided into two waves, men and women, because there was a third princess lying in the side hall, and only one side of the side hall was available, so the female dependents with cumbersome clothes became the first to be searched.
The five female dependents checked, starting with the noble concubine and the four concubines, and then checking the prince's civil and military officials, the men checked much faster, and when everyone checked, there was still no problem, and Jiakangdi's face was even more ugly.
Li Zhong was crazy about reciting Buddha in his heart, how could this harmful person be so powerful, the deeper he hid, the worse the emperor's mood became......
