Bai Qianfan cautiously went up the steps with a tray, Hao Pingguan stood on the porch, and hurriedly greeted him when he saw this, "How can I let Niangniang personally bring it over, Yuegui and Green Lotus?" ”

Bai Qianfan's body turned slightly, avoiding his hand, "Don't scold them, the boss, I want to send them myself." ”

Hao Pingguan said with a smile: "All the old princes are inside, and they must be greatly praised when they see the queen mother so virtuous." ”

Bai Qianfan asked, "Isn't the matter finished yet?" ”

"Ten years of the big festival, naturally everything has to be done properly, you can go in."

Bai Qianfan went in with a tray, and there were some people sitting in the room, the elders and a few children of the clan, and the King of Jin was also there, discussing something with the emperor.

The emperor was a little absent-minded, and when he saw Bai Qianfan coming in, he got up to greet him, "Why are you here?" ”

"I saw that the emperor didn't eat much in the morning, and I thought that I would be hungry this time, so I cooked corn soup to fill your stomach."

King Jin smiled: "The imperial sister-in-law is really sensitive, no wonder the imperial brother treats the imperial sister-in-law like a jewel." ”

The emperor took the bowl of corn soup, stirred it lightly twice with a spoon, and squinted at King Jin, "This kind of thing is not enviable, if you take care of it, Princess Jin can do the same." ”

King Jin pretended to be annoyed and angry, "Is the imperial brother going to expose my shortcomings in front of all the uncles?" ”

All the princes laughed, and a few of them secretly looked at Bai Qianfan, there were a lot of rumors about this queen, she was the fifth lady of the Bai Xiangfu in the past, and she was the princess of Wuyang in Nanyuan, and there were rumors about assassinating the emperor on the wedding night a while ago, but the emperor tried his best to avoid the rumors and was very fond of her.

It's really a bit of a spoil, and I dare to match you and me in the face of the emperor, and there are no rules at all.

The emperor scooped a spoonful into his mouth and said, "Besides, call someone to serve it, so that all the uncles can also taste the queen's craftsmanship." ”

Bai Qianfan didn't speak, just looked at him, his expression was a little dazed, seeing that the spoonful of corn soup was about to be eaten in his mouth, he suddenly rushed up, slapped the bowl to the ground, and the snow-white corn soup was sprinkled on the ground, everyone was stunned, a white Persian cat didn't know where to get out, ran to the puddle of corn soup and licked it with his head down.

Bai Qianfan shouted: "Xiaobai, don't ......"

The Persian cat looked up at her, her body was crooked, and she fell to the ground, and the king of Jin was close, and when he stepped forward to sniff, he was dead. He slowly straightened up and looked at Bai Qianfan, "Empress, what do you want to do?" ”

All the people's eyes moved to Bai Qianfan's face with King Jin's question. It's really a strange news in the world, the queen poisoned the emperor, and she dared to still be in front of everyone, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, I was afraid that no one would dare to believe it.

Bai Qianfan's face was pale, looking at the Persian cat on the ground who had lost his breath, tears were raining down, and he shouted, "Xiaobai, Xiaobai......"

An old prince shouted: "Emperor, what are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and call someone to arrest the queen." ”

"Emperor, what are you hesitating about, everyone sees is believing, can you still wronged her?"

The emperor's face sank like water, and he slowly walked in front of Bai Qianfan, "Empress, do you want to kill me?" ”

"No, I, I ......" Bai Qianfan cried and shook his head, but he couldn't say why.

The emperor turned to look at the old princes, "Uncle Wang heard it, and the queen said no, I believe her." ”

"Emperor," the old prince grieved, "everyone knows that you usually love your wife as much as your life, but now that she wants your life, do you still want to protect her?" ”

"I don't believe she did it, and no one can wronged the queen until the matter is clarified."

King Jin arched his hand and said, "Brother Huang, how about letting the younger brother investigate this case thoroughly?" This matter is urgent, if you don't figure it out in time, not only the uncles, but even the younger brothers don't worry about the royal brother and the queen staying together, the royal brother is the son of heaven, he is the body of a daughter, and he can't tolerate the slightest mistake, there is such a big hidden danger around him, and if it is spread out, the subjects of the world are restless. ”

An old prince stepped forward to stop in front of the emperor and Bai Qianfan, "King Jin's words are reasonable, your majesty, this matter is not trivial, before it is investigated, for the safety of the emperor, it is best not to see the queen again." ”

"Presumptuous!" The emperor brushed the old prince away and held Bai Qianfan's hand, "She is my daughter-in-law, if something like this happens, how can I abandon her?" ”

"Your Majesty!" He knelt down in the old pro-dynasty, "You can't be so confused, for the sake of a woman, you ignore the society and the people of Li, you will be spurned by the people of the world!" ”

King Jin also knelt down, "Your Majesty, no matter what, you have to find out the matter clearly, so that you can also return the queen's innocence." ”

"Your Majesty!" All the princes knelt down and shouted in unison.

The emperor was a little helpless, and waved his hand, "That's it, you go and check, I will wait here." ”

The princes got up, and the king of Jin said: "It's not difficult to investigate this matter, and the queen's personal palace maid will know as soon as she asks, and in addition, the imperial doctor of Wei will come to check what poison is in the corn soup?" It is also necessary to find out where the poison came from, as long as all these things are clear, the matter will be clear. ”

The emperor nodded, so Yuegui was called, she didn't know what was going on, she felt that everyone was staring at her, a little inexplicably afraid, and then looked at the corn soup and the Persian cat on the ground, her face changed suddenly, and she looked at Bai Qianfan in disbelief.

King Jin drank and asked, "Who cooked this corn soup?" ”

Yuegui shuddered in fright, and hurriedly withdrew her gaze, but she bowed her head and said nothing.

"Tell me quickly, if there is half a lie, this king will let people kill you alive."

Yuegui's legs were weak, she knelt down, and said tremblingly: "Yes, it was cooked by Niangniang?" ”

"From boiling to delivery, can you borrow someone?"

"Niangniang said that she would cook desserts for the emperor herself and not let anyone interfere."

"In other words, from boiling to delivery, the queen mother did it alone?"

Yuegui bit her lip and hesitated for a long time, but still nodded.

At this time, Wei Zhongqing walked in quickly and bowed his hand to the emperor, "Minister Wei Zhongqing is driving, so urgently summoning the minister, I don't know what's going on?" ”

The emperor was silent, and he remained silent since the King of Jin began to try the case.

King Jin said: "Imperial Doctor Wei, please check it, what is the poison of this corn soup on the ground, why did this cat die after licking and eating two mouthfuls?" ”

Wei Zhongqing was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, and in the middle of the ring, his face darkened, and he got up and replied: "Lord Wang, the cat's neck muscles are stiff, the pupils are extremely constricted, the whole body is tight, the teeth are tightly closed, and there seems to be a convulsion. ”

King Jin frowned, "But where did this strychnine come from?" ”

Wei Zhongqing suddenly knelt on the ground, "Lord Wang, yesterday, the whereabouts of the two money strychnine in the Tai Hospital were unknown. ”

"Bastard!" King Jin slapped the table violently, "Why don't you report it early?" ”

"The number is not much, Xia Guan thought it was mixed with other medicinal materials, but it can be checked and checked, but there is still none, only the queen mother has been to the Tai Hospital that day, and Xia Guan does not dare to make a judgment, so ......"
