Chapter 608: Poisoning

Being questioned by them, Chu Qiaomeng was slightly embarrassed.

"I only met the palace maid before my mother a few days ago, when she was dying, she told me the truth of that year, hoping that I could find an enemy for my mother and comfort my mother's spirit in heaven. The big palace maid also found out about the whole thing later, and she didn't know who the enemy was......"

Chu Qiaomeng explained a few words simply, and Chu Qiaosi next to him reacted and immediately nodded vigorously.

"That's right, I went with Sister Dream at the time. The big palace maid didn't think of this at the time, and she later learned that there were tea and flowers like Shun Bilong and Usa, which a merchant in the Western Regions told her. She has been serving by the imperial concubine's side, and after thinking about it carefully, she realized that the imperial concubine was killed by a traitor. ”

Chu Qiaosi's explanation was more complete, and everyone had no doubts.

The emperor's heart was full of shame, and when he thought of the imperial concubine again, her face became painful.

At the same time, Concubine Hua's face became flustered, and she could naturally talk to the emperor calmly just now. But at this moment, her hands trembled slightly, still pretending to be calm.

cast a look at the palace maid behind her, and the palace maid knew how to behave. Met a look with Hua Guifei and sneaked away from the side.

Seeing the emperor's sad expression, An Lan began to think about what happened at that time, and a picture quickly flashed in her mind.

"Your Majesty, what Princess Meng said just now is all true, and I also felt something wrong when I drank the tea at that time, because only some merchants in the Western Regions knew about this side, and no one in the capital probably knew about it, so I didn't say much. I never thought that I would be hit. An Lan sighed helplessly.

She naturally knew that Usa's tea was unusual, and she had also learned about it from a merchant in the Western Regions.

Chu Xingze has many shops, and it is inevitable to contact merchants from the Western Regions. I had met those businessmen with Chu Xingze before, and I learned about it by chance. But I don't want to make a mistake in myself.

"It turns out that this person has the audacity to attack my princes!" The emperor Long Yan was furious, and he grabbed the tea cup next to him and fell to the ground.

Now that he finally figured out everything, that person not only killed the imperial concubine, but now he is doing the same trick again.

An Lan is just a female streamer, and she is not often in the harem, and she is not her own concubine, so it is naturally impossible to compete with the women of the harem. The only possibility is the dispute between the princes, so An Lan is implicated in it.

The emperor narrowed his eyes, he already had his own plan in his heart, and quickly narrowed the scope to the mothers of those princes.

He didn't say what he really thought, but sent it to the head of the imperial dining room.

In less than a moment, the head of the imperial dining room came in with a sincere fear.

"See the emperor!" The chief steward knelt on the ground, glanced at the emperor in horror, and trembled with fright.

"Do you know why I asked you to come here?" The emperor picked up the tea in front of him and calmly took a sip, his face was so dark that it was hard to see the extreme.

"Back to the emperor, the little one naturally knows why the emperor summoned the little one. This time, the little one was indeed in charge of all the food at the banquet, but the little one didn't have the courage to attack the princess at all, and the little one didn't know what was going on. Maybe it was the people under his command who had received benefits to do such a thing, please let the emperor know what to do, this matter has nothing to do with the small ones......"

The first reaction of the chief manager was that the emperor wanted to take his anger out on him for this matter! Besides, if such a big thing happens, everyone will be implicated, and he can only get away with it as much as possible.

"I naturally know that this matter has nothing to do with you, and now that you are the head of the imperial dining room, there is no need to do such a thing. Therefore, I want you to bring all the palace maids and eunuchs who had prepared meals and refreshments that day, and I will interrogate them carefully. ”

The emperor calmly ordered the governor.

He thought about this matter very clearly, and it was impossible for him to be poisoned halfway. At that time, there were many people in charge of serving the food to the table, and it was impossible to poison it in front of everyone.

If it was made at the beginning, there would be a lot of opportunities to poison it, and it would be possible to be unaware.

After listening to the emperor's words, the chief steward immediately went to do it, and found all the girls who were preparing tea and pastries.

According to An Lan, she only ate pastries at that time, and she was in a coma before she had time to eat today's main course, so it could only be that there was a problem with the pastries and tea.

"Your Majesty, the girls are all here! The small ones did an investigation just now, and only a few of them may have problems. ”

The chief steward made the emperor quite satisfied, and since he narrowed down the scope, he could naturally determine who was the murderer among several people.

The emperor was obviously tired at this time, and he cast his eyes on the person next to him. The eunuch next to him knew what the emperor meant, and he immediately walked next to one of the palace maids.

"You girl still hasn't recruited from the truth, how did you poison it, who instructed it?" He roared suddenly, and the little palace maid was so frightened that she knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

Seeing that this little palace maid didn't admit it, the eunuch went over to intimidate other palace maids, and they shirked each other's responsibilities one by one, and no one wanted to admit it.

After interrogation, they didn't ask a detailed question at all, and several of them all cried bitterly, and some of them were so frightened that they lost their minds, and the entire hall looked extremely chaotic.

Asked back and forth, they only said that a strange palace maid had come halfway, and they didn't know anything about the others.

It was precisely because of such a clue that the emperor sent someone in the palace to find the palace maid who had come. For a while, all the palace maids were terrified, and the palace was completely in chaos.

Early the next morning, many important ministers of the DPRK and China gathered in the hall of the post house, most of them followed by two entourages, carrying a few bags and a change of clothes.

The prime minister headed by him sat on the main seat, holding the teacup and not stopping the light taste. Just then, a man approached.

Seeing him coming, the prime minister raised his eyebrows.

"How? You ready? Are all the adults there? The Prime Minister's voice was methodical.

"Yes, my lords, some of the adults are all here, we can go immediately."

With his words, the prime minister got up from his seat and counted the number of people, and all the ministers who should come came.

Then let people take them to the exclusive car, and a group of people set off towards Guangdong.

At this time, the palace was already in chaos, but the emperor was carefully reviewing and reading in the imperial study, and he didn't know anything about the outside world.

Because of his recent busy schedule, he had reviewed nearly a full day's recital, and it was dusk.

Hearing a noisy shout from outside, the emperor frowned slightly, and the eunuchs outside rushed in.
