Chapter 519: The Dongying people assassinate the Holy Maiden
"What evidence do you have to prove that this matter was done by Qinglan?" Lin Yuan felt that the saintess must know something.
"Think about it, if the Dongying envoy dies here, who will have the best benefit? Didn't the Imperial Doctor say that the envoy of Dongying was heavy on Gu poison? Then this Gu poison can only be Qinglan except for me. The holy woman didn't know what she was thinking, and suddenly looked at Lin Yuan with a sudden realization.
"Maybe the Gu poison on Er Qinglan was given to her by the Queen Mother, so it is the Queen Mother who wants us to fall out with the Dongying people, and the Dongying people will definitely attack Southern Xinjiang at that time."
"This queen mother is really a good calculation, Weng Beng fights with each other, and sits on the fisherman's profits."
"What should I do now, Queen Mother, you must help me." The holy woman looked at the forest kite with a pleading gaze.
Lin Yuan nodded, took her hand and patted it gently: "Don't worry, I won't sit still in this matter, I must rescue you." ”
"Thank you Queen Mother, thank you Queen Mother for willing to believe that I am innocent." At this time, all the hopes of the saint were pinned on Lin Kite.
Lin Kite held the hand of the saint girl tightly, as if comforting her.
After the two of them talked a few more words, Lin Yuan went to the deceased's room to look for some clues.
When Lin Yuan and Guan Yue searched the deceased's room, they suddenly found a pair of unopened herbs: "Guan Yue, come here, you go and take this medicine to the medical hall to see what kind of medicine it is, and check which store this herb comes from." ”
"Yes, slave and maid." After Guan Yue answered, she left the post station with the unopened herbs.
Lin Yuan thought that there must be some ulterior secret in this herb, so he hurriedly asked Guan Yue to take it to the medical hall.
While waiting for Guan Yue to come back, Lin Yuan walked around the room of the dead Dongying envoy again, and after looking around, he didn't find anything suspicious, so he gave up.
It didn't take long for Guan Yue to hurriedly walk back with the pair of medicinal herbs in her arms: "Queen Qiyu, the slave maid has already run all over the large and small medical halls in the city, but she has not found out what kind of medicine this medicine is and where it comes from. ”
"How is this possible? Since there are herbs, there must be prescriptions, how can there be no records on file? As soon as Lin Yuan heard Guan Yue say this, she frowned slightly.
It stands to reason that the medicinal materials that each medical hall goes out every day will be recorded by a special person in the file, how can there be no information at all, or is there something strange in it?
"Queen, what should we do next?" Guan Yue cautiously asked Lin Kite.
Lin Yuan's face was full of sadness, the clue was interrupted, and now he had to go back to the palace to find another way to see what kind of way could successfully rescue the saint.
"Let's go back to the palace first, and let's talk about this matter after we return to the palace."
After speaking, Lin Yuan left the post station, and when he just returned to the palace, he saw Zhao Yun leading people out of the palace in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, where are you going?" Lin Yuan looked at Zhao Yun who was in a hurry with some confusion.
Zhao Yun was obviously a little surprised when he saw Lin Kite: "You just left the palace?" ”
"That's right, I went to the post station to see the Holy Maiden, and by the way, I went to the dead Dongying envoy's room to look for some clues, but unfortunately there were no clues." Lin Kite said with some loss.
"I don't know where you're going in such a hurry, Your Majesty?" Lin Yuan asked again.
Zhao Yun then remembered that he still had something important to do, so he just said a few words: "Something happened at the post station, and the Dongying people wanted to kill the saint in private, so as to avenge their Dongying envoy." ”
"What? But I just came back from the inn, why didn't I find out about it? ”
"This matter is a long story, you better go back to the palace first, and I'll deal with it." After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he hurriedly wanted to leave.
"No, how can this matter be without me, if the saint is really injured, I will definitely not forgive myself, I will go with you."
Zhao Yun knew that he couldn't resist Lin Kite, so he had to nod and agree.
Along the way, Zhao Yun explained the whole thing to Lin Yuan: "They Dongying people feel that the Dongying envoy died unjustly, so they want to solve this matter privately, just as they sneaked into the saint's room and wanted to kill the saint, they were noticed by the saint, shouting and attracting officers and soldiers." ”
"Is there anything wrong with her, saint?" Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked on the front foot, the saint on the back foot had an accident.
Zhao Yun shook his head: "The Holy Maiden is fine, as for the Dongying people, they have been captured by the officers and soldiers, and now they are waiting for me to deal with it." ”
"These Dongying people really can't hold their breath, the truth of the matter hasn't been figured out yet, and they want to kill people." Lin Yuan also said indignantly.
"They have always been like this, and this is not once or twice, and now I am worried that if the envoys of other countries die in their own country, the two countries will cause a war, not to mention that it is not a war between two countries, but a war between our three countries, and if there is any more moth, the war will definitely be fought."
Lin Yuan could see the sadness between Zhao Yun's eyebrows, and comforted him softly: "It's okay, we have come over so much suffering, and we are no longer afraid of this one, as long as we find evidence to prove that the saint is innocent." ”
"But how easy is it to find evidence? What's more, the imperial doctor has already diagnosed that the envoy of Dongying has been poisoned by the Gu poison of southern Xinjiang, and this Gu poison is only available to the saint of southern Xinjiang, so isn't the spearhead aimed at the saint? ”
"Maybe things will turn around." Lin Yuan said such a sentence that made the second monk Zhao Yunzhang confused.
When he saw Zhao Yun looking at him with a puzzled gaze, Lin Yuan smiled slightly, and told Zhao Yun about the herbs he had just found in the post station.
"Just now, when Guan Yue and I searched the Dongying envoy's room, we found a package of unopened herbs, I thought this package of herbs was a little suspicious, so I asked Guan Yue to take it to the City Chinese Medicine Pavilion to ask, but unfortunately it didn't find out anything."
As he spoke, Lin Yuan took the package of herbs from Guan Yue's hand and handed it to Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun looked at it carefully, and then handed it to the eunuch beside him: "You put away this package of medicine, and ask the imperial doctor when you return to the palace to see what is here." ”
"Yes, Servant Command."
While speaking, the carriage came to the post station where the saint and the Dongying people were, and Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan did not stop and went straight to the post station after getting off the carriage.
"Are you all blind? Didn't you see that our Dongying envoy has already died in your Central Plains, and the murderer of our Dongying envoy is in front of you, why don't you let us kill that woman? The Dongying people who wanted to commit murder were restrained by two officers and soldiers, and they couldn't help but curse angrily.
"Why do you want to protect that saint when we are the victims? Did you listen to us? ”
Seeing that the two officers and soldiers were indifferent to their words, the Dongying people actually scolded a cruel sentence: "Are you all deaf?" There are dogs that are born by mothers and not raised by mothers. ”
"What are you talking about?" As soon as Zhao Yun and Lin Yuan came up, they heard the words scolded by Dongyingren, and Zhao Yun's face was obviously a little bad, and he came to them.
Seeing Zhao Yunlai, the Dongying people were not afraid at all, but intensified: "Yo, you, the emperor of the Central Plains, still know about it, I thought you were going to be a turtle with a shrunken head." ”
"Be careful with your words." Lin Yuan looked at the open-mouthed Dongying man with great displeasure.
"Pay attention to what words? Now that our Dongying envoys have all died in your Central Plains, your Central Plains emperor not only did not give us Dongying people an explanation, but even asked the officers and soldiers to strictly protect the murderer, what kind of reason is this? ”
"How can you be so sure that the Holy Maiden is the murderer? As far as I know, it seems that the Gu poison is not the only one owned by the saint, right? Lin Kite on the side was not afraid of the scolding of the Dongying people at all.
"But now there is only one saint from southern Xinjiang, and the queen mother should not tell me that it is the poison of other people in southern Xinjiang."
"Maybe that's the case, or maybe someone stole the Gu poison in southern Xinjiang and wanted to frame the friendship between our three kingdoms."
"Nonsense, how could the Gu poison in southern Xinjiang be easily stolen? I think you Central Plains just want to protect the saints of southern Xinjiang, right? ”
"We will definitely give you Dongying people an explanation for this matter, but we haven't investigated it clearly, and now you still want to hurt the people of Southern Xinjiang in our Central Plains, if the people of Southern Xinjiang know, do you think they will let you Dongying people go?" Zhao Yun, who had not spoken for a long time, said with a cold face.
"What if you don't let it go? If you don't give us Dongying people an explanation, then we can only kill this holy woman to sacrifice the heavenly spirit of our Dongying messenger. ”
"Do you know that what you just said to me is actually insulting our Central Plains?" Zhao Yun didn't pay attention to what the Dongying people said, but mentioned the words that the Dongying people said just now.
"You should know the strength of our Central Plains, if our soldiers in the Central Plains know that your Dongying people have insulted our Central Plains, do you think they will give up?"
When Dongying people heard this, they immediately closed their mouths with a weak heart, how could he not know the strength of the Central Plains, so no matter how much dissatisfaction he had, he would not dare to make a mistake in front of the Emperor of the Central Plains.
"I tell you, you Dongying people had better settle down, if you do something like today to hurt the messenger, I will definitely not give up."
Zhao Yun slowly came to the front of the Dongying people and warned them: "I have said that I will give you an explanation for this matter, and I will definitely give you an explanation, as long as you stay in the post station with peace of mind, I will definitely guarantee your safety." ”
Seeing that Dongying people nodded, Zhao Yun let the officers and soldiers let them go.
When everyone in Dongying left, the holy woman saluted Zhao Yun: "Thank you to the emperor for rescuing." ”
The saint knew that if it wasn't for the officers and soldiers sent by Zhao Yun to find out today, I was afraid that her life would have to be confessed here.
