Chapter 426

Xuanyuan Jing smiled wickedly when he stepped into the west. As if he had just remembered, he added, "Wrong." Brother Huang has already decreed that Miss Liang and my eldest brother are engaged, and this king should call you sister-in-law! ”

As soon as this sister-in-law came out, Liang Rujun's noodles suddenly turned white! She stood there trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time.

The Queen Mother was disturbed by Xiao Li's violent death, and when she saw Liang Rujun's miserable face at this moment, she couldn't help but sneer: "What? Miss Liang, look at your abnormal face, do you have any opinion on the mourning family's choice of you as Princess Min! ”

"The courtiers don't dare!" When Liang Rujun heard this, he fell to his knees with a thud.

The Queen Mother snorted coldly and said, "Forgive me and don't dare!" As she spoke, she turned her head, looked at her son and said, "Jing'er." Since you're here, let's go in together! I can also see for the mourning family, who did this sin! ”

"My son is happy." Xuanyuan Jingxi hurriedly said, and as he spoke, he stepped forward and held the hand of the Queen Mother. The mother and son went in.

Gu Ruoxi followed behind without thinking too much, Xiaoli's death was none of her business at all, she had nothing to worry about.

Liang Rujun walked at the back, she hadn't reflected on Xuanyuan Jingxi's evil words, and the pain in her heart was irrepressible. She raised her head and looked at Gu Ruoxi in front of her, and she couldn't wait to rush up and kill her with a knife!

If it weren't for this woman, would Xuanyuan Jingxi be so cold to her!

Liang Rujun couldn't swallow this breath at all, but she counted the account on Gu Ruoxi's head, but she didn't blame Xuanyuan Jingxi at all.

Soon, everyone entered the Buddha room one by one.

From the door to the front of the Buddha hall, there are palace people standing straight on both sides, they are guarding expressionlessly, and at the bottom of the Buddha hall, there is a corpse parked, covered with a white cloth, and everyone has not come closer, they smell a pungent bloody smell.

Gu Ruoxi frowned, except for the bloody breath, she seemed to smell a faint sweet smell, and this smell was very close to herself......

She quietly looked down at the purse she was carrying, and at this moment, Liang Rujun, who had been walking behind her, suddenly spoke: "Miss Gu, what are you looking at?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the Queen Mother and Xuanyuan Jingxi, who were walking in front, immediately turned their heads.

Gu Ruoxi didn't have time to put down her purse, and her movements were clearly seen by several people in the house. But she didn't see the slightest panic on her face, but smiled faintly, and said very apologetically: "The bloody atmosphere in this house is too strong, and the courtiers are a little uncomfortable, so they took out the purse. As he spoke, he wanted to stuff the purse back into his sleeve pocket, but at this moment, the Queen Mother suddenly said, "Slow! ”

Gu Ruoxi stopped her movements and looked at the Queen Mother very puzzled, but heard her instruct to Jingyue on the side: "You go and bring her purse!" Please ask the doctor to verify it

! ”

"Yes! Empress. Jingyue also knew that the stakes were high, so she didn't intercede for Gu Ruoxi, but lowered her head and walked over and said, "Second Miss Gu, I'm offended." Then he reached out and took the purse in her hand.

In this process, the Queen Mother had already ordered someone to ask for a doctor.

Gu Ruoxi stood there with no panic on her face.

But Liang Rujun on the side suddenly laughed lowly, just when she was smiling the most brightly and proudly, Xuanyuan Jingxi suddenly turned his head and glanced at her, his eyes were cold, as if he was looking at a dead person.

Liang Rujun was stunned.

However, Xuanyuan Jingxi had already turned his head to look away, and the scene just now seemed to be Liang Rujun's hallucination.

She couldn't be happier anymore.

Over there, the Queen Mother had already walked a foot away in front of the corpse, and commanded the palace people in a deep voice: "Come on, uncover it!" ”

But at this moment, Xuanyuan Jingxi suddenly spoke: "Queen Mother! You're old, so let your sons do it! If you wait and see something uncomfortable, you won't be able to bear it! ”

"No, the mourning family wants to see with their own eyes, how did Xiao Li die!" The Queen Mother listened to Xuanyuan Jingxi's words, shook her head and said: "If it is an ordinary palace person who dies violently, then the queen mother will definitely not personally investigate this matter thoroughly, she only needs to do it for the people below, and the mourning family only needs to listen to one result." However, this time it was different, she died in the small Buddha hall of the mourning family! ”

"This Buddha hall was built by the mourning family for your dead eldest brother to personally supervise the palace people, and I have always prayed for him over the years, but today, there is a dead person here, if you don't check it clearly, this palace will definitely not give up!"

This is a resounding statement.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi heard this, he glanced at the Queen Mother in a daze, and saw that he couldn't persuade her, so he had no choice but to let the Queen Mother go.

The palace people on both sides got the signal, and immediately stepped forward and slowly uncovered the white cloth sheet covering Xiao Li's body.

The person lying down at the bottom was really Xiao Li, she was dead, but her eyes were open, and there was blood flowing out of her pupils, dripping all over her face, and at this time, the blood stains had coagulated.

This picture of death is indeed scary enough.

The Queen Mother only glanced at it and hurriedly turned her head sideways, reciting Amitabha Buddha in her mouth. Xuanyuan Jingxi also couldn't bear to turn his head sideways. Behind him, Liang Rujun was almost crying, but Gu Ruoxi's eyes were firmly fixed on the violent little pear, with a thoughtful expression.

"How did she die so miserably?" After a long time, the Queen Mother sighed and said, "It's really beyond the expectations of the mourning family!" ”

Xuanyuan Jingxi hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, please mourn, you take care of your body!" ”

The Queen Mother smiled reluctantly at her youngest son, but she turned her head and said in a stern tone: "Why hasn't the imperial doctor arrived yet?" ”

"! Already on the way, soon to arrive! Jing Yue hurriedly explained.

The Queen Mother turned her head and instructed the palace people: "Cover it with a white cloth!" Wait for the Imperial Doctor to perform the autopsy. ”

Soon, Xiao Li's hideous corpse was completely covered by a white cloth sheet.

The Queen Mother didn't want to stay here for a moment, so she took her son's arm and walked out, Gu Ruoxi and Liang Rujun followed behind.

When she got outside, the Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked at the Buddhist hall that had existed in Cining Palace for more than ten years, and her eyes were very complicated: "When this case is over, let's seal it here!" The mourners never wanted to come here again. ”

She just asked two young ladies to come and copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for the death of her eldest son, which was originally a good thing, who could have predicted that things would eventually develop like this? Her loss was simply too great.

The Queen Mother was sad in her heart, so when she looked at Gu Ruoxi and Liang Rujun, her eyes were very unkind.

Especially Guruo Creek. Liang Rujun's future has been pinched in her hands, but the second lady of the Gu family has the emperor behind her, and she can't help it for the time being......

Or, let Jing'er marry her? In the future, if she wants to torture her, it will be much more convenient.

As soon as the Queen Mother had this idea, she dispelled it, no! She can't lose her favorite little son for the sake of a Gu Ruoxi!

Xuanyuan Jingxi looked at the sad look in her mother's eyes, but her resentment towards Liang Rujun was even deeper, he definitely didn't believe that Gu Ruoxi would be the one who killed Xiaoli behind the scenes, so there was only one real culprit! That's Liang Rujun!

At this moment, Xuanyuan Jingxi simply thought that it was a wrong decision for him to coax the Queen Mother to make Liang Rujun Princess Min! How can such a vicious woman be widowed? She's damn it!

Not long after the three of them came out of the Buddhist hall, a few people hurried outside, and it was the doctor from the Tai Hospital.

The Queen Mother did not hesitate, and immediately sent two imperial doctors in for an autopsy, leaving one with the best medical skills, but she instructed Jingyue: "Where was the purse just now?" Take it to the Imperial Doctor to test it! ”

said that, naturally, it was Gu Ruoxi's purse.

Jingyue didn't dare to hesitate and handed the purse to Imperial Doctor Liang, she didn't even dare to look at Xuanyuan Jingxi's face. But she knew that her little master must be full of worries in her heart at this moment.

Gu Ruoxi stood there, still expressionless on her face.

Liang Rujun's eyes flashed.

In front of everyone's eyes, Imperial Physician Liang reached out and took the purse handed to him by Aunt Jingyue, opened it slowly, but took out a sachet from it, the sachet was made into a heart shape, indigo silk as the base, embroidered with peony flowers, looking very exquisite, Imperial Doctor Liang raised the sachet under his nose and smelled it, and closed his eyes slightly.

The Queen Mother was a little anxious, and couldn't help asking, "Imperial Doctor Liang, what's going on?" ”

When Imperial Physician Liang heard this, he turned around, he glanced at the Queen Mother and said, "Niangniang, the minister smells this incense."

There is nothing abnormal in the sac, and the spices in it are all cloves, male cloves, male cloves, fennel and other items, but for the insurance period, I still asked someone to bring a pair of scissors, and the lower officials have seen it with their own eyes to know if these are the only ones. ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately waved her hand, Jingyue retreated when she heard the sound, and within a quarter of an hour, she took a pair of orange scissors.

Imperial Physician Liang took it, and cut the sachet open in front of everyone. He handed the scissors back to Aunt Jingyue and carefully examined the spices himself, all eyes fixed on his face.

After a long time, Imperial Physician Liang raised his head and reported to the Queen Mother: "Back to the Queen Mother, there are no poisonous powders or prohibited drugs in this sachet, they are all ordinary spices. ”

"Really?" The Queen Mother was a little skeptical.

Imperial Physician Liang nodded and said, "If you don't believe it, you can wait for the two imperial doctors inside to come out and let them test it too." ”

"That's it!" When the Queen Mother heard this, she immediately waved her hand and said: "Your Imperial Physician Liang's medical products and character, this palace still believes in it." As she spoke, she paused and said, "What else is in that purse besides this sachet?" ”

When Imperial Doctor Liang heard this, he immediately reached out and took it out of his purse, but he took out a few pieces of plum blossom shortbread.

Seeing this, Gu Ruoxi immediately said embarrassedly: "Back to the Queen Mother, this is the pastry that the courtiers brought from home, which were originally eaten in the carriage, but they didn't finish it, and the courtiers forgot about it, so they ......"

When the Queen Mother heard this, she smiled coldly and said, "Second Miss Gu, are you afraid that after entering the palace, the palace will make you hungry?" What stupidity! ”

"The courtiers don't dare!" Gu Ruoxi hurriedly bowed his head and said.

However, the Queen Mother ignored her, just turned her head and said to Imperial Doctor Liang: "You check it, see if there is poison in this shortbread?" After all, this is something brought in from outside the palace, so don't worry about it if you don't check it. ”

"Yes, sissy." Imperial Physician Liang listened to the instructions, and immediately lowered his head to inspect it, and after a while, he raised his head and said, "Hui Niangniang, this pastry is also non-toxic." ”

However, the Queen Mother refused to believe it and asked, "Imperial Doctor Liang, you have been tested so soon?" ”

At this moment, Gu Ruoxi on the side suddenly spoke: "Back to the Queen Mother, the courtiers are willing to eat these plum blossom cakes in public to prove that they are non-toxic!" ”

"Really?" When the Queen Mother heard her say this, she was stunned for a moment.

Gu Ruoxi nodded without hesitation.

The Queen Mother immediately said: "Okay! Miss Gu has the courage to eat these pastries in public to prove her innocence, and this palace admires it! ”

"Empress Dowager Xie compliments." Gu Ruoxi said lightly, and as he spoke, he stepped forward, took a piece of pastry from the handkerchief in Imperial Physician Liang's hand, and ate it without hesitation.

All eyes were on her face, waiting to see how she reacted.

However, Gu Ruoxi was not afraid at all, and after eating a piece, she stretched again

Hand took a piece!

Liang Rujun's eyes suddenly deepened!

Only Xuanyuan Jingxi, he quietly showed a smile where others couldn't see. On the private in Ba.

Others don't know, but he knows, Gu Ruoxi must be hungry, so he said something like eating pastries! Everyone was nervous, and only he could see that Gu Ruoxi's food was extremely sweet.

No, she ate four or five pastries on Imperial Doctor Liang's handkerchief.

At this time, Liang Rujun suddenly said timidly: "Imperial Doctor Liang, don't you take Miss Gu's pulse?" In case she feels unwell......"

The Queen Mother was reminded, and immediately nodded: "Not bad!" Exactly! ”

Imperial Physician Liang couldn't, so he had to come forward to check Gu Ruoxi's pulse, and it was in public.

As early as the moment when the Queen Mother spoke, someone from the palace came forward and moved a table and two chairs in the courtyard. Gu Ruoxi sat at this end, and Imperial Doctor Liang took her pulse at that end, but Gu Ruoxi's wrist was padded with a handkerchief, and it was fine.

All eyes fell on these two men.

Imperial Physician Liang took it very seriously, and after a long time, he let go of Gu Ruoxi's hand, stood up and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, Weichen has carefully checked the pulse of Miss Gu Er, she has no abnormalities in her body, and she is very healthy." It's just that these days seem to be very tiring, and I need to take a good rest. ”

When the Queen Mother heard this, she believed it a little. She believed that Imperial Physician Liang would never dare to lie in front of her.

This pastry is really not poisonous, so Miss Gu will be healthy after eating.

"So, what's in that purse?" The Queen Mother thought for a moment and asked.

When Imperial Physician Liang heard this, he picked up the empty purse and looked at it carefully for a while, before replying: "Niangniang." There is indeed nothing in it, Weichen has looked at it carefully, by the way, even the fabric of the purse itself, there is no problem. He seemed to have guessed what the Queen Mother was going to ask, so he told everything he knew.

Until this time, the Queen Mother was dead, and Gu Ruoxi really had nothing to do with this matter!

However, Xiaoli has been serving her for the past few days, and if this matter has nothing to do with her, it can't be said!

The Queen Mother couldn't help frowning.

That's when it happened. Xuanyuan Jingxi, who was on the side, suddenly spoke: "Queen Mother, since you have already checked Miss Gu's purse, shouldn't it be fair?" ”

When the queen mother heard this, she turned her head and glanced at her son and said, "You mean ......" private Fengcai.

"It's easy! The meaning of the son is that all the people who stayed in the Buddhist room that day have their purses. There are also baggage and other things, which need to be checked! Xuanyuan Jingxi smiled coldly, turned his head and looked at Liang Rujun: "Miss Liang, how about taking out your purse too?" ”

Liang Rujun heard this, and slowly raised his head. But he met Xuanyuan Jingxi's gaze unexpectedly. Her heart sank.

This gaze is really cold......

Although Liang Rujun was sad, he was still rational in the end, and immediately replied: "What Your Highness said is that Miss Gu's things have been checked, so naturally it will be the turn of the courtiers." As he spoke, he took out a small purse from his sleeve pocket.

However, Xuanyuan Jingxi did not let her go, but turned his gaze to Aunt Jingyue: "The dead little pear is serving Miss Gu Er, so who is the girl who serves Miss Liang?" I checked it too! ”

When Jingyue heard this, she immediately walked to the palace crowd, dragged out a palace maid with a panicked face, took off her purse from her body three times and divided it by two, and handed it to Imperial Doctor Liang.

But Imperial Physician Liang didn't reach out to take it, but said, "Aunt Jingyue, put this purse on the table next to you!" Wait and check again, otherwise it will be confused with Miss Liang's things. ”

"That's what Doctor Liang said." Aunt Jingyue said, and immediately stepped forward and put the purse that she had taken from Xiao Luo's body on the table on the other side.

Next, Imperial Physician Liang conducted another careful and meticulous examination, and as usual, everyone's eyes were firmly fixed on her.

Imperial Physician Liang also took out a sachet from the purse, and a moon-white handkerchief embroidered with water lotus flowers, cut it open as usual, and examined it inch by inch.

When Xuanyuan Jingxi saw Liang Rujun's sachet, the expression on his face was full of sarcasm: "The last time Miss Liang entered the palace, she recommended Ren Yao and the two girls to make pastries that were exactly the same as Zhang Yan, Wang Yanfei and others, this time, your sachet is exactly the same as Miss Gu Er, this is really a coincidence!" ”

Before, everyone didn't think there was anything, but now when they heard this, they all realized that these two sachets, whether it is workmanship or materials, are exactly the same!
