Chapter Forty-Nine: The Prince of Poison Plotted Suicide in Fear of Crime

With all kinds of questions, she went back to the county lord's mansion.

The first thing he did when he returned to the mansion was to order the secret guard to carefully investigate the relationship between Empress Zhao and Gonggong Qian.

Even so, the uneasiness in her heart still lingered.

She didn't care much, hurried back to the palace, and went straight to the East Palace.

As soon as she stepped into Xiao Yan's bedroom, she heard Father-in-law Qian coax and persuade: "Your Highness, this blood swallow porridge is your favorite food, and if you don't eat it, it will be cold." ”

"Okay, this palace knows, and this palace can use it." Xiao Qi said impatiently.

Hearing this, Xiao Han's face changed greatly, and he immediately signaled the palace people to pass it on, and then said with a smile: "Your Highness, there are good things here, I smell the fragrance outside!" ”

As she spoke, she deliberately observed Father-in-law Qian's expression, but because Father-in-law Qian kept hanging his head, she couldn't see the look on his face at all.

Xiao Yan on the side was extremely happy to see her, and handed the blood swallow porridge in his hand to her: "Sister Han, this is blood swallow porridge, if you like it, I will give it to you." ”

When he saw this bowl of 'Blood Swallow Porridge', countless thoughts flashed through Xiao Han's mind. But in the end, she took the bowl of porridge and ate it again.

Then she put down the bowl of porridge, and frowned slightly: "This porridge is too sweet and greasy, the county lord doesn't like it very much, so let's withdraw it." ”

The palace people in the East Palace were about to serve this bowl of porridge, but Xiao Han suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, and the whole person fainted.

When she woke up again, she found herself lying in a strange dormitory.

Her throat was so thirsty that she had to shout, "Water, water..."

Xu was because her voice was too weak to attract the attention of others.

For this, she had to struggle to get up and try to get out of bed and pour water herself.

As a result, she misestimated the degree of her physical weakness, and the whole person fell under the bed in an instant.

The huge muffled sound attracted the attention of the palace people outside, and the palace people hurried in and shouted in a low voice: "County Lord, County Lord, what's wrong with you?!" ”

When they saw her curled up on the ground, the palace people who came in were frightened, and hurriedly called people, and the last palace people went to find the imperial doctor, and the other two palace people worked together to help her to the bed.

"Water, water, I want water..."

The palace people on the side immediately said: "Wait a minute, the slave maid will pour water for you." ”

After drinking almost a jug of water, she felt that her throat felt much better, and before she could ask about it.

I heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then Emperor Wu An led Xiao Qi and a imperial doctor appeared in front of her.

Emperor Wu An hurriedly stepped forward and said with a concerned face: "How is Pingle, do you feel that there is anything uncomfortable in your body?!" Doctor, don't you see the Lord of Pingle yet! ”

The Imperial Doctor stepped forward to check her pulse in fear, and at this time she gradually remembered what happened before she fell into a coma.

It didn't take long for the Imperial Physician to get up and reply, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the residual poison in the county body has been cleaned up. However, the county lord's body has not yet recovered, and he still needs to recuperate for a while. The minister will prescribe a prescription to help the county lord recuperate and avoid sequelae. ”

Emperor Wu An said lightly: "Don't go quickly, if the county lord has any mistakes, you are the only one who asks!" ”

After the imperial doctor opened the house, he led Hongxiu to the imperial hospital to grab medicine, and the other palace people also withdrew from the palace under the emperor's instructions.

After everyone left, she spoke weakly: "Uncle Huang, what the hell is going on?!" ”

At the suggestion of Emperor Wu An, Xiao Qi told her everything that happened.

It turned out that after she fell unconscious, black blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth.

This made him suspicious, and while he ordered people to go to the Tai Hospital to find the Tai Doctor, he ordered the entire East Palace to be sealed off.

After that, Emperor Wu An got the news and quickly rushed to the East Palace.

After the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor, she was indeed poisoned, and the cause of her poisoning was the bowl of 'blood swallow porridge'.

Immediately, Emperor Wu An ordered that all the palace people present be detained for interrogation.

The Tai Hospital also began to step up the development of the antidote, but fortunately, because she didn't eat much of the bowl of blood swallow porridge, the poisoning was not deep, which gave the Tai Doctor enough time to develop the antidote.

After severe torture, one of the palace people couldn't stand the confession, saying that he had put something in the bowl of blood swallow porridge at the behest of Father-in-law Qian, but she said that she didn't know that the bag was poison.

According to the confession of this palace person, Emperor Wu An immediately ordered the forbidden army to arrest Father-in-law Qian.

As a result, when the forbidden army arrived, they found that Father-in-law Qian had committed suicide in fear of crime. Before his death, he also left a letter in which he admitted that he had planned all this.

Therefore, the clue came to an abrupt end when it arrived at Father-in-law Qian.

As for whether there is someone behind him and what his purpose is, these are all buried forever with the death of Father-in-law Qian.

She had been in a coma since that day, but fortunately she woke up.

Because the Imperial Physician once said that if she can't wake up within seven days, then it is very likely that she will not be able to wake up in this life.

Fortunately, on the sixth day, she woke up.

After listening to Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Han had mixed feelings in his heart.

She knew in her heart that the person behind Father-in-law Qian should be Queen Zhao if nothing else. As for whether he really committed suicide in fear of sin, Xiao Han was also skeptical.

After all, Grandpa Qian died at a good time, and according to her understanding of Grandpa Qian, he didn't look like a person who would commit suicide in fear of sin.

No matter how she guessed, there was no meaning, because Father-in-law Qian was dead, and there was no evidence of all this.

In fact, at the beginning, she was gambling.

When she saw Father-in-law Qian in the East Palace, the uneasiness in her heart became more and more obvious.

She vaguely guessed that something should have been put in the bowl of porridge, so Father-in-law Qian kept persuading Xiao Qi to take it.

But she didn't have any evidence, and she wanted to completely solve Father-in-law Qian, so she went to eat the bowl of blood swallow porridge.

If this porridge is poisonous, then Father-in-law Qian will definitely not be able to get rid of it, and he can do it once and for all. Moreover, because of her poisoning, it will also arouse the attention of the imperial uncle to the East Palace.

If the porridge is not poisonous, then she has nothing to lose.

However, she also considered whether it would endanger her own safety, so she deliberately only ate a small snack and put down the bowl of porridge.

She was most glad that the poison given by this father-in-law Qian was not the kind of poison that sealed her throat when she saw blood, which allowed her to survive.

Now that she looks at it, her goal can be regarded as achieved, without Father-in-law Qian, there is one less threat by Xiao Yan's side.

As for Empress Zhao, without her father-in-law, presumably she will stop for a while.

In addition, the emperor's uncle must strengthen the garrison of the East Palace because of this incident, so Xiao Qi should be safe in a short period of time.
