Chapter 546: Death Doesn't Admit It

Xiao Yuan's words were a little ironic, but they also made the palace maid in front of her have no choice, thinking that all the evidence of the crime has been eliminated anyway, and she is not afraid of Su Xiaoman's search.

turned around and said with an unhappy face: "Let them search, if they can't find out why, this palace will definitely go to the emperor to complain!" Hum! ”

A confident performance made everyone want to laugh, things have developed to this point, and the people who followed Su Xiaoman's investigation were like a mirror in their hearts, but I was afraid that the people in front of them didn't know yet.

Xiao Lan reluctantly lowered her arms that were blocking the Praetorian Guards, even though her arms were useless, they couldn't stop the Praetorian Guards.

A group of people quickly entered the concubine's dormitory and searched carefully.

At this time, the eldest prince, who had just returned from the academy, stepped over from the palace gate, and couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw the behavior of the Praetorian Guards, and asked repeatedly: "What are you doing, why are you doing this in my mother's dormitory?" ”

The eldest prince has seen Su Xiaoman and knows what kind of person she is, when he met Su Xiaoman before, he thought she was gentle and amiable and very easy to get along with, but now there is a trace of coolness in his eyes, which makes people feel a little awe.

"The eldest prince, the princess is handling a case, do you know what happened in the queen's palace yesterday? There was another big incident today, which annoyed the princess! ”

"What kind of case, my mother is not a prisoner, you don't respect her so much, don't you take me, the eldest prince, in your eyes?"

Although the eldest prince is only a teenager, he speaks with a head and does not offend anyone.

Concubine Jin was very relieved to see her son protecting herself like this, she didn't think he was very utilitarian in the past, but now she doesn't show weakness when she speaks.

"Don't worry, the eldest prince, we'll find out later!"

The Praetorian Guards searched for a long time, but did not find any poison in Concubine Jin's bedroom, and returned to Su Xiaoman to report: "Princess Qiyu, there is nothing abnormal in this palace!" ”

Lu Li thought about whether this matter was here or not, and he couldn't find out clearly.

"Hear it, although my mother has done some wrong things before, but it was all forced, and now that she has changed her ways, how could she poison the queen mother's decoction, did the princess make a mistake?"

The eldest prince never believed that his mother would do such a thing, out of the protection of the love of mother and son, Su Xiaoman also understood, but now that there has been a death in the palace, if the prisoner is not arrested, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles, not to mention that the motive and physical evidence have been implemented.

After the Praetorian Guards finished reporting, they did not disappoint Su Xiaoman, for a person with such a deep utilitarian mind, it was impossible to find anything in her dormitory.

Seeing Su Xiaoman's expression, it seemed that he was a little disappointed because he didn't find anything, but the corners of the palace maid Xiaolan's raised mouth did not miss Su Xiaoman's eyes.

"Pick it up!"

Su Xiaoman gave an order, and the Praetorian Guards handed over the shoes they had found from the Huanyi Bureau, and the palace maid Xiaolan's face instantly changed from joy to horror, but the fleeting look did not allow others to notice.

"These shoes are from your palace, right? Presumably one of the palace maids in your palace accidentally stepped on my tea garden, you look at the dirt on these shoes, but it is the same material as the soil of the tea garden! ”

Concubine Jin looked at the few pairs of shoes on the ground with a deep frown, pretended to laugh, and asked: "How many palace maids in this palace, and how many people have been to your tea garden and this palace, how can it be clear, and besides, it is too perfunctory for you to think about the guilt of this palace with a few pairs of shoes!" ”

Knowing that Su Xiaoman didn't find anything in her palace, and wanted to talk about her guilt based on just a few pairs of shoes, I couldn't help but feel that Su Xiaoman was a little stupid and too naΓ―ve.

Speaking is also yin and yang.

"What? Is there nothing to say now? This investigation of the case should have been carried out by the general judgment court in the palace, but Jia and Princess Jia were making a lot of fun, was it too idle in this palace? ”

Knowing that Su Xiaoman had no other evidence in her hands, Concubine Jin also began to be complacent, and walked to the gazebo on the side without pretending to have a headache, holding a handkerchief in her hand and covering her mouth and laughing from time to time.

What she said didn't make sense, she was originally a canonized princess, fearless and nosy, Su Xiaoman didn't want to meddle too much in the queen's poison, but she didn't expect that someone with a heart would actually move the ground on her head, so it doesn't matter, if you don't find out the person who tramples on the tea garden, it is difficult to understand the hatred in your heart.

"What Concubine Jin said is that this matter is the matter of the Inner Palace, I think you also know, my carefully tended tea garden was destroyed overnight yesterday, not to mention anything else, if I find out the perpetrator, I will make her pay ten times the price!"

Thinking about the destruction of the tea garden, Su Xiaoman was furious in his heart, seeing that the murderer was in front of him, but he couldn't bring him to justice, it was really uncomfortable.

Hearing what Su Xiaoman said, Concubine Jin sneered instead.

"Oh, isn't it too light for Princess Jiahe to want to wronged the palace with just a few pairs of embroidered shoes, even if it is sued to the emperor, it will not work, not to mention what does the destruction of your tea garden have to do with the queen's fetal pills, why did you bring so many people to me to fool around, it is better to re-manipulate your tea garden with this spare time!"

Su Xiaoman's words made Su Xiaoman speechless for a moment, and he could only stare at her dryly, and Lu Li also heard that there was sarcasm in his words, which was nothing more than saying that Su Xiaoman was idle and had nothing to do.

Just when it was a little difficult to start the defense of Concubine Jin, the voice of the waiter came from the door.

"Princess Qiyu, there is news from the Tongju Court, saying that the seller of the poison of Naqiwu has been found!"

Just when the case encountered a bottleneck and didn't know how to deal with Concubine Jin, the good news finally reached Su Xiaoman's ears, in order to prevent Concubine Jin from slipping again, Su Xiaoman said sideways: "Okay, the general sentence will be sent here, I want to ask him face to face!" ”

Xiao Lan, the palace maid standing behind Concubine Jin, couldn't stand on her heels, her eyes flickered for a moment, and the eldest prince protected Concubine Jin, for fear that others would snatch away his mother.

Half a moment later, the general judge came to Su Xiaoman's side, and respectfully handed the original notebook to Su Xiaoman.

"Princess, Wei Chen sent someone to a store in the Western Regions in Shangjing early this morning to inquire, this is the trading account book of that family, you can take a look first!"

After taking over the account book, Su Xiaoman carefully checked it, and sure enough, the emperor lived up to his wishes, just a few days after Zheng Rongying announced that she was pregnant, someone from the palace went to buy it, to Su Xiaoman's surprise, this account book is so obvious, isn't he afraid of being implicated?

Therefore, he turned his head and asked, "General judgment, may I ask the owner of this Western Regions shop to invite him to the palace for tea?" ”

The General Judgment Court has always been thoughtful, and all those who are involved must be brought back to the palace for questioning, so Su Xiaoman can be regarded as asking the point, and the General Judgment is also excited, and he stepped forward and said: "Princess Huiyu, the boss of the Western Regions is already waiting at the gate of the palace, ready to be sent at any time." ”

At this time, when she heard that the owner of the Western Regions store was coming, Concubine Jin was obviously a little anxious, and hurriedly shouted.

"If you want to investigate the case, you can go to the general court to review it, this palace is not a place to try cases, since you have already searched here, why don't you leave!"

Hearing that Concubine Jin's tone was a little anxious, and even with a hint of panic, Su Xiaoman pursed her lips and smiled: "Since you have come, you can simply ask in this courtyard, how bad it is to run around in the province!" ”

At this time, the palace maid Xiaolan couldn't bear her temperament, and walked out of the pavilion quickly, shouting: "You all go out, my mother is going to rest, if you delay Concubine Jin's mother's recovery, can you afford it?" ”

"If Concubine Jin really has a princess with three long and two short, it is here, come and say, the owner of the Western Regions store will come forward to ask!"

Su Xiaoman's sharp eyes frightened the palace maid Xiaolan took a few steps back, relying on Su Xiaoman's temper to think that it was easy to handle, originally thought it was a soft persimmon that was easy to pinch, but she never thought that she would suddenly be like two people with her before.

With the palace maid Xiaolan on the side, the Praetorian Guards carried the owner of the Western Regions store directly into the courtyard for questioning, and a large crowd surrounded the courtyard, and the boss of the Western Regions was wearing exotic clothes from the border, and stood in front of Su Xiaoman.

Seeing that he was a little scared in his heart, Su Xiaoman instantly became pleasant and relieved: "Don't be afraid, boss, you can tell what you hear and see!" ”

The boss of the Western Regions, who was a little trembling by the crowd, listened to Su Xiaoman's gentle and beautiful voice, and immediately saluted and replied: "Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, the grass people are the sons-in-law of the Western Regions who came to the Sulfur Abyss to join the family, because of the reason for the wealth, so they started a business in the Sulfur Abyss, originally wanted to buy some rare items to attract guests, and the poison of the black was given by the teacher of the grass people, and it was originally a non-sale item to be placed in the store for decoration, about half a month ago, a woman came to the store, saying that there were many rats in the house, I wanted to buy some medicine to get rid of rats, but the grass people thought to themselves that I didn't sell rat poison in this store, so why did they come to me to buy it! ”

Hearing this, some people's hearts began to beat drums, Su Xiaoman listened to the boss of the Western Regions while looking around at the people in the courtyard, only to see the palace maid Xiaolan clenching her fists, looking more and more nervous, Su Xiaoman was even more sure that the person who bought the medicine must be the palace maid Xiaolan.

Seeing that Su Xiaoman didn't seem to be listening, the boss of the Western Regions stopped again and thought that he had said something wrong, and his expression began to panic again, after all, it was the poison he sold, and he thought that this was good, and he had caused a fatality.

"It's okay, you go on to say that this princess doesn't blame you!"

Hearing Su Xiaoman's pardon, the boss of the Western Regions was of course overjoyed, he was originally full of sadness, but his mood suddenly brightened, and he said: "That woman said a lot of things that convinced the grass people anyway, and she happened to encounter the problem of closing the shop due to the bad business of the store, so she sold the poison of the black to the woman at a price of three hundred taels!" ”
