A baker's dozen
At noon, it warmed up a bit. The eunuchs in Changchun Palace searched the palace carefully, Qin Meiren and Zheng Cairen in Jingren Palace were still kneeling, Xiao Dezi's legs were already numb and unconscious, and he was sweating like rain at this time. Qin Meiren still said the same sentence: "Zheng Cairen, you have no evidence, I have never used any poison, if you don't believe it, you will know when Gonggong Feng searches the palace." ”
Zheng Mengjing continued: "Gonggong Feng can't find anything when he searches the palace, this poison is on Qin Meiren." ”
When Qin Xiangxiang heard this, his eyes immediately dodged. The dream was not completely sure, but seeing that Qin Xiangxiang was so nervous, he was finally sure that he had guessed correctly: "Your Majesty, yesterday Qin Meiren fell into the water and was carried back to the palace by the little nobleman, it was the concubine who changed the clothes for Qin Meiren, and the concubine saw Qin Meiren with a pendant around her neck, which was very peculiar." ”
Qin Xiangxiang glanced back at Cuifang in disbelief, but saw that Cuifang was staring at her, with a chill in her eyes. Qin Meiren instantly saw that Qin Xiang was white, and Cuifang was collected by Yixue Pavilion.
"Gonggong Feng said that the Pharmaceutical Division did not have a record of taking Heding Red, that is, someone brought it into the palace without permission. But when the show girl enters the palace, her body will be carefully checked, and it is impossible to bring it into the palace ordinarily, unless it ......" Zheng Mengjing squinted at Qin Xiangxiang's chest, and Qin Xiangxiang subconsciously covered the pendant on his chest.
"I remember you said that the pendant was a relic of your mother," the emperor got up and walked down slowly.
"Since it is a relic, it can escape the inspection of the grandmother and bring it into the palace......" The queen looked at Qin Xiangxiang's expression. I already had a rough guess in my mind.
Qin Xiangxiang was in an extreme panic, and the emperor had already walked up to him and dragged the pendant down. This pendant is really related, the emperor picked it up and took a look, and saw that there was a gap in the middle, and he couldn't break it no matter how hard he tried. Qin Meiren stared, wishing they didn't know how to open it. But the emperor only looked at it a little, and then he knew the mechanism. There is a small bead on the pendant, which looks like a decorative one, but in fact it is connected to some mechanism in the middle of the pendant, and the emperor twists the bead, and pushes the pendant forward, and the pendant opens along the gap, like a coffin lid. The pendant opened, and sure enough, there was some powder, and Qin Xiangxiang finally lowered his head.
At this moment, Feng Bao rushed over, and before he could report the results of the palace search, the emperor hurriedly asked him to take a look. Feng Bao himself knows how to use medical skills, so he hurriedly came over to take a look, picked up a little more and sniffed it, and knelt down in shock: "Your Majesty, this is Heding Hong!" ”
The emperor looked down at Qin Xiangxiang, who was kneeling at his feet, and his disgust was overflowing. At this time, Cuifang suddenly knelt down and cried: "Sister, sister, you died so miserably!" The cry was terrible, as if it was about to exhaust all its strength, and it made people cry when they heard it.
Dream continued: "Your Majesty, Cuifang is Cuilan's own sister, and the two of them entered the palace only to take care of their seriously ill parents at home. But Qin Meiren did not hesitate to kill people in order to compete for favor, no wonder Cui Fang cried like this, which made people's hearts unbearable! ”
Seeing this, Yuzhi pulled Cuifang forward and pulled Cuifang's sleeves up, and her body was scarred, some of which were obviously injuries on top of the old injuries. The bruises do not disperse, and the bruises add together, which is shocking.
"Your Majesty, the queen's mother, the slave maid is the head of Yixue Pavilion, one day I saw Cuifang fetching water, I saw the scars on her body, and when I asked about it, she shook her head. Now that I think about it, I must have been bullied by Qin Meiren often, and I didn't dare to speak. ”
Qin Xiangxiang looked at Cuifang, although she had been bullying Cuifang for a long time, it would not make her bruises all over her body, why did she have so many scars now?
Seeing this, the queen personally came down and picked up Cuifang's hand, caressing those scars, and tears in her eyes: "What kind of femme fatale is this, so she treats her subordinates so harshly!" Chunlan, go to the Pharmaceutical Division to get some good medicine! After that, he looked at the emperor, who was already furious, and shook his head as much as he tried to suppress his anger: "I really didn't expect it." He turned back and took two steps, then turned to look at Qin Xiangxiang, thinking that her act of competing for favor was extremely stupid, if it weren't for Zheng Mengjing, even if she was really poisoned that day, he would not be sad in his heart. After thinking about it carefully, the emperor didn't say this sentence after all, he only looked at her frightened face, and said in disgust: "Murder pays for life, the Qin family kills the palace people, and from now on, he will be flogged at noon every day until he dies." ”
Qin Xiangxiang sat down paralyzed, the matter had come to this, she struggled to crawl over and pick up the jade pendant that was thrown on the ground, thinking of committing suicide with the crane top red powder inside, but when she opened it just now, it had already been poured clean by Feng Bao, Qin Xiangxiang put the jade pendant in the palm of her hand and held it tightly, and her heart was sour.
Xiao Dezi knelt, thinking that the Qin family had no possibility of turning over, so he crawled to the emperor and cried: "Your Majesty, Qin Meiren instructed the slaves!" Xiao Dezi retracted his confession at this time, but the emperor didn't appreciate it: "I almost forgot about you." After speaking, he glanced at Feng Bao, and Feng Bao knew: "Where did the pickled stuff come from, drag it out and beat it to death!" ”
The guards took the order and took Xiao Dezi and the Qin clan down. Xiao Dezi begged for mercy to no avail, his face was already pale, and he couldn't stand up at all. When the guards took him away, they found that he was so frightened that he was urinating on the ground, and the wet and long marks came out from under him and dragged all the way until they disappeared around the corner.
