Chapter 196: The Truth of the Matter

Nan Fengling pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said, "Something is wrong?" ”

"Something is wrong there?"

"There's something wrong with the named maid."

"There's a problem there?"

Xiao Ying looked at her fixedly, and just asked questions.

"I can't talk about the problem there, but I always think it's weird."

"She saw that she didn't stop her hands and feet, but she came out to identify it at this time."

"If she wants to get on top, expose it before the queen eats the pastry, saying that she can't be appreciated. Now that the queen mother is gone, she has spoken out to expose that there must be ghosts in this. ”

"This maid looks at the face, I ......"

Before Xiao Ying finished speaking, Nan Fengling suddenly interrupted, "Did your queen mother eat pastries on the night of her illness?" Are you done with the pastry? ”

"Nope."

"On the second day of your mother's illness, you came back, and then sent someone to guard the palace of forgetfulness, and even if the plate of pastries was poured, it must not have been processed yet. She's stalling, she's trying to destroy the evidence. ”

Xiao Ying nodded, immediately got up, and rushed to the dining room of the Forgotten Worry Palace.

Seeing that things were about to come to light, it was impossible for Nanfeng Ling to sit idly anymore.

She followed Xiao Ying and went to the dining room together.

Xiao Ying took out the silver needles, put the pastries grouped together on the table, and inserted the silver needles one by one.

The silver needle was inserted and pulled out without the slightest sign of blackening.

Nan Fengling didn't believe it, took the silver needle in Xiao Ying's hand, and tested it in the same way, but the silver needle still didn't turn black.

She pinched the silver needle and thought for a while, then said aloud, "My queen mother told me that there are actually many things in this world that we can't see or touch. ”

"What do you mean?"

"I can't see it, I can't touch it, maybe there is some poison, and I can't try it with a silver needle."

"Poison that can't be tested by silver needles?"

"I don't know medical skills, but Your Highness can find someone who understands medical skills to take a look at these pastries, and the insiders will look at the doorway, maybe someone who knows how to do it can tell at a glance whether these pastries have been tampered with."

Xiao Ying listened to Nan Fengling's suggestion and asked Pei Feng to go to Tai Hospital to find Du Heng.

Among the many doctors in the Tai Hospital, Xiao Ying only believed him.

After waiting in the dining room for a while, Twilight Heng followed behind Pei Feng and walked quickly to Xiao Ying.

Twilight Heng stood up straight in front of Xiao Ying, and Nanfeng Ling saw his appearance clearly.

The man looked no more than twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a burly posture, a broad chest, wearing an ink-colored shirt, with distinct facial features, and a pair of peach blossom eyes under the sword eyebrows.

Du Heng pretended to glance at Nan Fengling inadvertently, and said to Xiao Ying, "Wechen has seen His Highness. ”

Xiao Ying stepped forward and helped him, "Dusk Heng, now is not the time to care about these courtesies, can you help me take a look, have these pastries ever been moved?" ”

When Twilight Heng heard this, he stepped forward and first tried the pastry with a silver needle.

When nothing happened, he put the silver needle between his nose and sniffed it.

The three people in the dining room watched his every move.

Seeing him frowning slightly because of the silver needle in his hand, they all wondered what he had found.

Twilight put away the silver needle in his hand and reached out to pick up the ordinary shortbread in front of him.

He opened the shortbread in half, sniffed it between his nose again, raised his head and said to Xiao Ying, "Where is the queen mother now?" ”

"It's in the main hall."

"Can Wechen take a look?"

Xiao Ying nodded and took the lead.

Coming to Mu Yunchu's bed, Du Heng continued to observe for a long time.

During this period, the hall was as quiet as stagnant water, so quiet that the sound of silver needles falling to the ground could be heard.

A few moments later, Twilight got up from the couch.

Xiao Ying hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How?" Can you see anything? ”

"The queen mother is indeed poisoned."

"What's the poison?"

Du Heng paused and replied, "Ginkgo biloba is non-toxic, but if the juice is extracted from the ginkgo biloba buds, dozens of catties of juice, and refined into a little thick, it can kill people, and the silver needle can't be detected." ”

Xiao Ying sneered when she heard this, smiled and laughed, and then laughed unbridledly, "If no one is instructed from behind the scenes, how can a little maid have such a powerful scheming?" ‘

"Xiao Ying." Nanfeng Ling called softly and stepped forward to help him.

He waved his hand, and the next moment he suddenly turned and walked away.

Nan Fengling was stunned for a moment and quickly followed.

Only Du Heng and Pei Feng were left in the hall.

They glanced at each other and quickly followed.

Xiao Ying went to the dungeon to interrogate the identified maid.

The maid probably didn't expect Xiao Ying to suspect her, so she shrunk and knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.

"Who ordered you?"

Xiao Ying clenched the short whip in his hand, and the green tendons on his forehead had jumped suddenly.

Nan Fengling was worried that he would lose control and kill the maid, so he stepped forward and held his hand tightly.

"Say! Who instructed you? ”

"What is Your Highness talking about, the slave doesn't understand."

"Who instructed you to poison the queen's pastry?"

Hearing the word poisoning, the maid's body trembled, and her speech became uneasy, "The slave doesn't know who His Highness is referring to, and the slave doesn't know about poisoning." ”

"I don't know about poisoning, but I know how to identify my wife? It's too late to escape from the Palace of Forgetfulness, so you want to blame others? If you don't tell the truth again, Prince Ben will cut off your hands and feet and make you a man. ”

"Your Highness, the slave has wronged ......"

Before the maid finished speaking, she was whipped on the back.

The whip almost cost her half her life, but she screamed in pain, but she still knelt, but her body trembled more and more.

"If you don't confess again, the prince will punish your relatives together, and the nine clans will be punished."

At the mention of her loved ones, the woman's body stopped shaking.

Seeing that the person in front of him was also a person of affection and righteousness, Nanfeng Ling rushed to Xiao Ying and waved the second whip, and said loudly, "I know that you can't help it, if you are willing to confess to Your Highness, Your Highness may spare your life." ”

"Spare my life?" The maid muttered and looked up.

When she and Nanfeng Ling looked at each other, she suddenly smiled, "What if the slave maid wants more than that?" ”

"If you don't want this, dare to ask the girl what else she wants?"

"The slave maid wants to wait for the prince close and accompany the prince, the slave and maid don't ask for anything, they just want to be by the side of His Royal Highness the prince, the slave and maid begged the queen, but the queen wanted to send the slave out of the palace."

"You're lying."

"How can the girl see it?"

"Not to mention whether you can think of this method as a maid, even if you think of it, you may not have the conditions to extract this ginkgo sprout juice."

"The girl is really from a rich and noble family, I don't know the truth that money can make ghosts grind, as long as the slave has silver, what can't be bought? I am afraid that if the slave wants to buy a life, as long as it costs money, it can be easily bought. ”

"You ......" Nan Fengling still wanted to argue, but the little eunuch sent by Xiao Ying to search the maid's room came back.

He put a white bottle in his hand.

Xiao Ying took the bottle.

"What else do you want to say now?"

"The slave and maid have nothing to say, the slave and the maid confess their guilt, and only beg the prince not to implicate the relatives of the slave and maid, which is all done by the slave and maid alone."

After speaking, the maid directly bit her tongue and committed suicide.

Nanfeng Ling was frightened by this scene, and Xiao Ying stepped forward quickly and blocked her vision with her hand.
