Chapter 315: Judgment
The Queen Mother drank a few sips of tea to ease up, looked at the doctors who were a little in a hurry, glanced at the queen, and looked at the queen in her heart, so she diverted her attention.
"Queen, who do you say is the person who poisoned me, knowing that I attach great importance to this child, and dare to do it under my nose, there are few people in this harem who can be so bold."
The queen chuckled in her heart, she knew that the queen mother's words also included herself, and hurriedly cleared herself.
"A few days ago, I thought about congratulating Concubine Zhen, after all, the child in her belly is His Majesty's first emperor, I naturally attach the same importance to it as the Queen Mother, I knew that it would be the current situation, I should have come to guard it earlier, but who in this palace would be so fearless?"
The queen said this on purpose, after all, Xu Xiangjin has been in the limelight in the harem these days, and it is easy for the Queen Mother to think of her without such a reminder, and the Queen Mother has already looked at Xu Xiangjin unpleasantly, and compared with herself, it is naturally easier to suspect her.
Sure enough, the Queen Mother pondered a little, and directly gritted her teeth and patted the table, "It's really against her, I don't want to touch her anymore in the emperor's face, I didn't expect her to be so uninteresting, she is really getting more and more daring!" ”
Although neither of them mentioned their names, they had already coincidentally convicted Xu Xiangjin of this crime in their hearts.
On the way, Xu Xiangjin sneezed a few times without warning, causing Zhan Qing to stop and check, "Is it a cold?" ”
"I'm fine." Xu Xiangjin rubbed her nose, always feeling a little ominous, but she thought she was too worried, "I guess my nose is a little itchy, let's go quickly." ”
Under the rejuvenation of the imperial doctor's skill, it didn't take long for Concubine Zhen's poison to be resolved, and after drinking the medicine, the person slowly woke up.
Although Concubine Zhen woke up, of course the child was not saved, and the imperial doctor was so frightened that his face turned blue and he knelt at the feet of the queen mother in a heap.
"The Queen Mother, it is the incompetence of the ministers and other ministers, who failed to keep the little prince, and please punish the Queen Mother!"
This child has not even arrived for half a month, and it has not been formed at all in the mother's womb, so naturally she can't bear the slightest danger, and the Queen Mother also knows, this is no wonder the Imperial Doctor, but the anger in her heart has nowhere to vent, but even so, she can't punish the Imperial Doctor, after all, who knows who will use them next in the palace.
"All of you go and wait by the door, and don't get in my way here."
What the imperial doctor just said naturally entered Concubine Zhen's ears, and she didn't seem to react a little, her eyes were open in confusion, she didn't speak, and she didn't move.
At this time, Xu Xiangjin and Zhan Qing had already rushed over, and when they were at the door, they had already learned about the current situation from the mouth of the imperial doctor, although they felt that it was a pity, but when they saw that Concubine Zhen was fine, she was still a little happy, after all, in her opinion, in this harem, the only person she could talk about was Concubine Zhen, and she also saved her life, she really didn't want her to have an accident.
"Concubine Zhen, it's really good that you're okay! I was really scared to death on the road just now, but how could you suddenly get poisoned? Can you guess who did this? ”
Xu Xiangjin wanted to shake Concubine Zhen's hand, but she opened it, which made her stunned for a moment, and she didn't quite understand what was going on.
"Your Majesty, I don't want to see Concubine Pity now, please let her leave quickly!" Concubine Zhen seemed to be enduring grief when she said this.
Xu Xiangjin looked at Concubine Zhen, and looked at Zhan Qing suspiciously, successfully seeing the doubts in the other party's eyes.
Although I don't know what's going on, but since Concubine Zhen who is lying on the bed has already asked for this, plus there are still the queen and the queen mother sitting inside, Xu Xiangjin is really not suitable to stay here, it is safer to let her go back to her own place.
He walked over and grabbed Xu Xiangjin's hand, for fear that she would be confused, "I'll look at it here, people are fine, you don't have to worry, now you go back first, I'll tell you something later, don't think nonsense when you go back, okay, wait in the room for me to know?" ”
Now that he had seen that Concubine Zhen was fine, and the child's affairs could not comfort her, it was really nothing to do here now, so Xu Xiangjin nodded and walked out.
As soon as the door of the room was closed, Xu Xiangjin heard the voice of Concubine Zhen talking inside, subconsciously stopped, and listened with his ears open.
Concubine Zhen in the room cried pear blossoms with rain, telling the reason for her poisoning.
"Your Majesty, I'm really happy to have this child, so I'm very grateful to the concubine, I don't have any defenses for her, I went to her a few days ago, the concubine wanted to pour me a cup of tea, I was a little bored, so I followed while she didn't care, and I saw her secretly put something in the cup, at first I didn't care at all, but after coming back, it became more and more uncomfortable, until..."
She started crying again.
Xu Xiangjin outside the door heard what Concubine Zhen said clearly, Concubine Zhen did come to her a few days ago, but she didn't want to see her at all because of Zhan Qing's affairs at that time, so she didn't even see her people, so how could she pour tea, this is simply a slander.
Xu Xiangjin suddenly understood a little, why Concubine Zhen was able to stand out among so many concubines and conceive an heir before, she really thought she was innocent, it turned out that this was a green tea who hid her scheming deep enough, this is not a green tea, it turned out that she had been deceived by her before.
"I'm really shooting myself in the foot, it's time to clean my eyes!" Xu Xiangjin said with some self-deprecation.
Although the abolished queen and the spirit concubine were not good at stubble, at least their badness could be seen, and she still had to take precautions, and Concubine Zhen's trick really made her unguardable.
But since she didn't give this poison, who else could it be, could it be her own accomplice, or ...... Herself!
Xu Xiangjin suddenly felt creepy, this tiger poison does not eat children, even if the child in her belly has not yet been formed, how can she be so ruthless, it is really the more kind people who seem to be on the surface, the most frightening thing is when they are really ruthless.
"System Jun, it's all a good thing you did, thanks to you, I'm stained with a fishy body again!"
Just now, Xu Xiangjin suddenly thought that Concubine Zhen must have known that if it was just her words, it would definitely have no credibility, unless it was to search for poison directly from her own airspace, so she hurriedly rushed back, and she was really a little angry in her heart, so she knew the source system of complaining about this matter.
[Think about it yourself, can you conceive me in this matter, I just want to help you complete the task as soon as possible, who knew that you were still playing stealing beams and changing pillars, and now that you have yourself in it, you know that you are to blame me, can't you think about your own problems! ] 】
"I don't have time to think about my problem now, I should think about where this medicine was put by Concubine Zhen, otherwise I will really be detained for this."
But even if she had run fast enough, she couldn't bear that Concubine Zhen had already arranged for someone to wait there, and as soon as she received the notice, she directly waited for people to enter Yong'an Palace and pretend to search, and then took out the poison from the place where they had already placed the poison, and confirmed this evidence.
"Emperor, now the evidence is conclusive, you shouldn't have anything to say about her defense, she is a poisonous woman who harmed your prince!"
The emperor and the queen mother, including the queen, rushed over in a sedan chair, Xu Xiangjin felt that the queen mother's face was obviously much happier when she saw the package of medicine, and immediately asked the emperor to quickly make a stand.
Now the gate of Yong'an Palace, including the palace maids and eunuchs and guards, is already crowded with people, in full view of everyone, there is such conclusive evidence, Zhan Qing has no way to explain for Xu Xiangjin at all, he can only look at Xu Xiangjin helplessly, sighed, he can only keep her for the time being.
"First put the poor concubine in Lin Yong'an Palace, and you are not allowed to come out without my order."
Xu Xiangjin was very aggrieved, she really wanted to say that this package of medicine was not hers at all, but in this era, there is no fingerprint identification at all, and no one will believe her, and the only person who will believe in her is now forced to punish her due to the pressure of her identity and everyone.
"Anyway, I'm going to say that I didn't do it at all."
Before the door of Yong'an Palace was about to close, Xu Xiangjin endured not to let the tears fall from his eyes, stared at Zhan Qing tightly, and made a defenseless excuse for himself.
Although it was not the first time she had been locked up, she had always held on to hope at that time, thinking that Zhan Qing would always come to save her, but now that she was locked up by him personally, she suddenly had a sense of herself becoming a fish on the display board, and she was being slaughtered.
"Queen Mother, Concubine Zhen has not recovered her health yet, so let's postpone the interrogation for a few days..."
Watching Xu Xiangjin's face disappear in front of him, Zhan Qing had a deep sense of powerlessness, at that moment just now, he would suddenly give birth to a kind of whether Xu Xiangjin was jealous of Concubine Zhen having her own child, so he suddenly acted ruthlessly, and he actually gave birth to a distrust of her.
"Naturally, you can, but this matter is about my imperial grandson, and I don't want this matter to be the same as before, so I must follow this interrogation by my side."
The emperor knows more about Xu Xiangjin's indulgence than anyone else, for fear that he will be biased towards her during the interrogation, so he must ask himself to be by his side.
Zhan Qing glanced at the Queen Mother with some irritation, sure enough, the Queen Mother wanted to guard against every joint, and now this situation did not allow him to refuse at all, even if he was particularly disgusted, he could only nod.
"How about the Queen Mother..."
