Chapter 228: Weak Heart
Everyone in the Zhang family looked at the twelve small porcelain vases.
The second daughter-in-law who had just spoken, was obviously bolder, and she was about to apply the bottle to her hand when she took the first step, but Mrs. Zhang stopped her, and the second daughter-in-law couldn't help but shout: "Mother!" ”
Before Mrs. Zhang could speak, the eldest daughter-in-law stood up and said: "My brother and sister are confused, my father-in-law was poisoned by Rong Su, so many of us saw it that day, but the old gentleman brought by His Royal Highness the Prince said that his father-in-law had been poisoned for a long time, which is clearly excusing the thief!" ”
The crowd nodded.
"But...... But if not, what if we are really poisoned? The second daughter-in-law squatted down to protect her youngest son, "Mother, my eldest man is the only seedling of the Zhang family!" ”
The eldest daughter-in-law glanced at her and didn't speak.
Mrs. Zhang also hesitated, but for the sake of her little grandson, she finally wavered: "That's it, you can take back a bottle by one of you, you can use it if you want, there are not so many words." ”
The medicinal powder openly given by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not be poisonous no matter how you say it.
Early the next morning, Qin Shao rushed to Zhang's house, and the entire Zhang family panicked, seeing her was like seeing a savior, and the second daughter-in-law bowed her head and bowed: "Please Your Highness and Mr. Save our mother and son!" ”
Twelve bottles of medicinal powder were distributed, only the palms of her and the child changed color, black and red were terrifying, and she almost lost her soul.
Qin Shao looked at Mr. Yucheng.
Mr. Yucheng stepped forward: "Please stand up to the noble man who applied the medicinal powder last night." ”
Everyone moved, except for the eldest daughter-in-law and the old lady, they all stood up, and everyone was really afraid of death!
Mr. Yucheng took a box of cinnabar and applied a piece of it to everyone's palm, and all the people who had applied the medicinal powder did not leave cinnabar, and he walked to the old lady again, and Mrs. Zhang sighed and stretched out her hand for Mr. Yucheng to check, and could only admit: "I also painted it." ”
Even the old lady was not exempt from the so-called inspection powder.
The eldest daughter-in-law was a little flustered at the moment: "I'...... I didn't have a picture because I didn't believe that my father-in-law had been poisoned a long time ago, we practiced medicine in the Zhang family era, how could my father-in-law not find out that he was poisoned! ”
Mr. Yucheng said frankly: "Of the twelve bottles last night, only two bottles will turn the palm red, and the remaining ten bottles are colorless and odorless but can cover the color of cinnabar, so everyone in the field did not lie." ”
Except for the old lady, who estimated that her face was lying, there was only the eldest daughter-in-law.
"People will always shoot to death, I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so noble and arrogant, and she did not hesitate to risk her life in order to prove Rong Su's guilt?" Qin Shao approached the eldest lady, and his tone was intriguing: "I don't know what enmity and grudge the eldest lady and Rong Su have?" ”
"I ...... I just believe what I see......" The eldest daughter-in-law swallowed her saliva and insisted.
"Do you believe that you won't be poisoned," Qin Shao said with a smile, "After all, only the person who poisoned will be sure that he won't be poisoned." ”
The eldest daughter-in-law's eyes widened suddenly, and she shouted excitedly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is clear! The courtiers have been wronged! ”
Qin Shao sneered, obviously not believing this woman's words.
The eldest daughter-in-law suddenly glared at her resentfully: "Even if you are the crown prince, you have to tell the evidence, and you can't conclude that I am the one who poisoned me just because I didn't apply the powder!" ”
"Proof, that's so easy to find." Qin Shao waved his hand.
I'm afraid that I don't know who the person who secretly poisoned me, once I know it, I have a direction, it's not easy to find?
Soon, the East Palace guards searched for relevant records in the mansion.
The eldest daughter-in-law is responsible for purchasing the house, and since Zhang Yuanzheng said to the palace that he was sick, he naturally wanted to drink some decoction.
Those tonic medicines are presented by the eldest daughter-in-law.
"These are all prescriptions prescribed by my father-in-law, and I am only responsible for buying medicine! Mother, mother, you have to believe in your daughter-in-law, your daughter-in-law will never do such a thing that is unconscionable! The eldest daughter-in-law knelt at the feet of Mrs. Zhang.
The old lady touched her daughter-in-law's head and looked at Qin Shao's face with an unkind face: "The courtiers know that Rong Su is from the East Palace, but even if His Royal Highness wants to protect it, he shouldn't splash dirty water on my Zhang family!" ”
"Whether it is splashing dirty water or not, the old lady will soon know." Qin Shao said.
In fact, she didn't have a score in her heart, after all, this operation was really chasing the wind, but if she didn't gamble, she wouldn't be able to catch the poisoner faster.
Mr. Yucheng personally inspected the eldest daughter-in-law's room and the place where the medicine was boiled, but found nothing.
Qin Shao's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and the joy in the eyes of the eldest daughter-in-law who escaped by luck was definitely true.
She clapped the case and said, "Come on, catch her!" ”
What if there is no evidence, she is the dignified prince of the East Palace, even if she is framed, does he dare to say a word!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Of course, Old Madam Zhang had to stand up and stop it: "Your Highness, is this going to be bent into a move?" ”
The second daughter-in-law hid back with her son in her arms, couldn't help but pull the old lady, and said in a low voice: "Mother! How dare you talk to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince like that! ”
The old lady has no husband but has two sons, and she will have to mix in officialdom in the future, how can there be any reason to offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a daughter-in-law.
"You! I knew you wished my eldest sister-in-law would die early! Seeing that Qin Shao had no scruples, the eldest daughter-in-law wanted to arrest people domineeringly, and she couldn't care so much screaming and begging Mrs. Zhang to save her.
"Mother! Mother save me, I am the wife of the Zhang family, you can't watch me be humiliated! ”
"Mother! Sister-in-law has not come out for many years, but you and I still have Dalang," the second daughter-in-law whispered the wind in her ears, hoping that the old lady would not ignore the future of the Zhang family because of a woman!
offended Qin Shao, no one had good fruit to eat.
Old Madam Zhang was obviously hesitant.
Qin Shao watched a good show in vain, and then nodded at the old lady: "Thank you for your cooperation, the eldest lady of the Zhang family is involved in the case, and she will be temporarily taken away for interrogation, and if the truth of the matter is revealed, she will be released." ”
"Mother, mother, save me! They clearly want to make me a scapegoat! "The eldest daughter-in-law still doesn't understand anything.
Qin Shao made it clear that he was going to sacrifice a Zhang family member in order to protect his appearance, and he also used his power to make the Zhang family suffer this dumb loss, and he didn't dare to sue again.
Maybe Rong Su alone is not enough for the Zhang family to swallow this breath, but the East Palace and King Rong work together, who can stop it!
"Mother! Yes! Qin's eldest daughter-in-law was torn and dragged away, and Qin Shao was still in the Zhang family at the moment, so she didn't give her face at all, not to mention that when she arrived at the East Palace, she was so scared that she couldn't help screaming: "Qin Shao, he won't be the prince soon, don't be afraid of him!" Mother! ”
"Stop!" Qin Shao walked over with a smile, and the eldest daughter-in-law realized that she had said something wrong, "How do you know that Lone Ma is not the prince, huh?" ”
"I ...... I'm afraid I'm in a hurry, I'm talking nonsense! ”
Qin Shao looked at Old Madam Zhang: "Mrs. Zhang has seen it, this woman dares to curse the crown prince of the dynasty, what is the reason for taking her away for interrogation, presumably the Zhang family will not mind." ”
Old Madam Zhang also glared at her eldest daughter-in-law with hatred, what could she say?
As soon as the old lady doctor left, half of his connections were scattered, not to mention that the other party was Qin Shao, a towering tree.
Qin Shao raised his feet to leave, and Chu Ying suddenly led the crowd to report: "Your Highness, Mr. Yucheng said that he found a clue, please go over quickly!" ”
"Ha, it doesn't look like there's going to be any trouble." Qin Shao pointed to the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhang family: "Take her, let's go." ”
