Chapter 82: A Day to Find the Truth
This time, the men's team appeared, so as the captain of the men's team, Baili Yunzheng attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared, because General Baili is now a famous general, and many women in the capital secretly agreed, but because Su Yuelan was too strong, everyone did not dare to show their hearts.
After the start of the men's Keju competition, Baili Yunzheng was also very strong, and won several points, and now the other team is led by Prince Mufu, Baili Yunzheng and Prince Shogunate have always been on the wrong track, just like Li Chuxia and Su Yuelan in the last game, these two are also-for-tat after they played.
Mufu's methods are more insidious, and when he competes with Baili Yunzheng after he goes on the field, he secretly cheats and makes no one present see it, only Baili Yunzheng knows what the prince has done.
The prince's methods are naturally known, but now he has no intention of entanglement with the prince, so when the two of them compete against each other, the players under him are also like these two people, and they don't like each other, and everyone grabs the ball on this one.
But no one noticed that many of them had finished the cakes served by the guests and began to run into the hut.
Li Chuxia watched Baili Yunzheng being in the limelight on the field alone, just like he had just now, and laughed inexplicably, at least the two of them have slightly similar personalities, but they have an accurate grasp of some things and will not give up the slightest bit to others.
However, he stopped the prince, but he didn't expect that the people under his hands could be manipulated by the people under the prince, so he almost let the people under the prince score a goal, Baili Yunzheng quickly stopped the ball before the ball entered the goal, and then kicked it back to his own field.
The prince was trembling with anger at this scene, but he didn't expect that this Baili Yunzheng could be so shameless, and he could kick back to the field again before his goal was scored.
So in the prince's cruel eyes, he had the mentality that he was bound to win this game.
The game was at a fever pitch because neither side scored again, and that ball was intercepted on the pitch and not allowed into the opponent's goal.
Li Chuxia was a little nervous at this time, after all, this last goal was the key to victory, and the two sides were tied 1:1, and now they rely on the last ball to determine who will win this game.
Then when everyone was not paying attention, Baili Yunzheng finally grabbed the ball, and then in front of everyone, a goal entered his own goal.
"Rubbish!"
The prince's eyes were grim at this time, and after watching Baili Yunzheng grab the ball and kick it into the goal, he obviously lost.
Then after winning this game by the white-collar workers, he was rewarded by the emperor, but the emperor did not expect that his prince would be so wasteful and embarrassed himself on the court.
Baili Qiao'er's face was a little not good, she didn't expect her younger brother to be so strong, and he didn't even let the prince, and now I'm afraid that the emperor still feels a little unbearable.
After winning this game, many people noticed that there were many people lining up to go to the thatched hut, and everyone felt that there must be something wrong with this pastry, otherwise they would have started to run to the thatched hut after eating.
So the emperor sitting on the high platform also found out that something was wrong with these ministers, and directly called the imperial doctor to see what was going on with those ministers who ran out of stomach, and the result was that they all had food poisoning after eating.
So the emperor was furious and slapped the table to catch the person who was holding the pastry.
"Your Majesty, the people's daughter thinks there is something wrong with this matter." Li Chuxia was the person in charge of pastry on the field at the Keju Competition, so of course he was not allowed to be the first to be arrested at this time.
So everyone looked at Li Chuxia who was arrested in front of them with a slight change of face, not that they didn't expect that this woman had taken up all the limelight, and now she was arrested by the emperor because of this kind of thing.
"Bold Li Chuxia! How dare you poison food! ”
The emperor looked at this Li Chuxia's expression changed slightly, but he didn't expect that this woman would poison this meal, causing so many ministers to run to the thatched house now.
"Your Majesty, the maiden thinks there is something strange in this matter." At this time, in order to prove his innocence, Li Chuxia also began to talk to the emperor.
The emperor didn't listen to what Li Chuxia said at this time, and directly let the meaning around him start to test what was the difference between the pastries on this plate.
Several imperial doctors have detected poisonous things in this pastry, so the fact that poisoning the pastry is considered to have been hammered here.
Baili Yunzheng of course couldn't let Li Chuxia be punished alone, strode to the top of the high hall, came to the emperor's side and knelt down directly.
"Your Majesty, Weichen was originally the person in charge of this conference, because I learned that it was good to make pastries here, so when I thought about it, I didn't expect that there would be such a mistake now, please punish Weichen if you want to punish it!"
Baili Yunzheng knelt in front of the emperor with a serious expression and asked for guilt, so he didn't know why such a mistake happened, but in order to avoid Li Chuxia being arrested, he could only come out by himself to confess.
Because if he is caught, there will be all kinds of people who will find ways to save him, and he will not be charged with killing his head like Li Chuxia.
Baili Qiao'er didn't expect that his younger brother would stand up so strongly and take the initiative to ask for guilt, originally this matter had nothing to do with his younger brother, but now that the emperor remembers that this responsibility also has his younger brother's share, I am afraid that he will also be punished with his younger brother.
Baili Qiao'er, who was originally a little anxious, wanted to help her brother say something good, but she heard that the emperor beside her had already started to punish people angrily.
"Presumptuous! Poisoning the food, this kind of thing is also your negligence! Punish together! ”
The emperor slapped the table angrily at this time, but he didn't expect that this Baili Yunzheng would come out to ask for guilt, in that case, then put them in prison together.
"Your Majesty! I think there must be something strange in this matter, I have been cooking for so long, I have never encountered the problem of poison in food, and I have always done things myself, I will not poison the food, this matter is definitely someone trying to frame me! ”
Li Chuxia wanted to bite the bullet at this time, and asked the emperor to give him time to find evidence After all, Baili Yunzheng was also kneeling beside him at this time, and he didn't want these two people to be able to clear their names because of this incident, and their identities were ordinary, if the emperor opened his mouth, he would be dragged to beheading.
"And what evidence do you have?" The emperor restrained his anger at this moment, and looked at the audience, this woman was so bold to talk to herself.
"When I do this, because everything is done by myself, no one will do it, so it's only the matter of serving the dishes that are too important."
Li Chuxia carefully thought about the details of what he was cooking in the kitchen, and the people who made pastries with him were all trustworthy and would never start.
"Now that there is a problem, then only those palace maids and eunuchs who serve the food ask the emperor to give me a day to investigate this matter."
Li Chuxia risked death to ask for the time of this day, if I relied on this day to investigate this matter, I am afraid that what awaits me is nothing more than imprisonment or direct murder.
When Baili Yunzheng knelt on the ground, his eyes were slightly sideways, and he glanced at Li Chuxia who was next to him, he had always known that this girl had her own ideas, but he didn't expect her to be so calm in front of the emperor.
The emperor's eyes had been looking at Li Chuxia's side at this time, and then lightly fell on Baili Yunzheng next to him.
When the emperor was silent and did not give an answer, everyone also gave up their eyes and watched how these people would be punished.
However, the happiest thing is Su Yuelan and the concubines in the second prince's mansion, this fox spirit is finally going to be disposed of by the emperor, but Su Yuelan also knows that the emperor has a great incentive to agree to Li Chuxia, but he is also praying in his heart that the emperor will not agree, after all, if this is investigated, he will be in big trouble.
"Since you say so, then I will give you a day, if you can't find a result, then you must apologize to death for the civil and military officials on the field."
The emperor said lightly, after saying this, he directly pulled Baili Qiao'er next to him back to the harem, and felt that this woman named Li Chuxia was very interesting, but if he couldn't find any results on this day, it would be a pity for such a person.
After Baili Yunzheng watched the emperor leave, he directly pulled Li Chuxia, who was still kneeling next to him, to a place where there was no one.
"Are you really sure you want to find out the truth?" Baili Yunzheng looked at the person next to him with burning eyes, because he couldn't find out as a result, at most he would be locked up for a few days, but the people around her were different, her identity was ordinary, and it was just a word from the emperor if she wanted to be beheaded.
"If I don't buy myself this day, I'm afraid I'll die here today, so this result must be found."
Li Chuxia looked at Baili Yunzheng next to him with a serious expression, so he didn't know who would be so bold to hurt himself, but he must have hated himself to the bone, so he said that he had not made an enemy in the capital for so long, but the person who wanted to offend invisibly would definitely not be aware of it.
"In that case, then I'll investigate with you." Baili Yunzheng thought that this time was running out, after all, if you want to find out about this matter, it is very complicated, and now there is only one day, it is imminent.
So the two of them directly took a large group of people under Baili Yunzheng's hands and began to investigate from the source, first checked what kind of poison was in this pastry, and after careful investigation, they knew that there was a lot of croton in this pastry.
