If you want to find out who poisoned Zhao Ningyi, you must start from the source of the poison.

Maybe the other party wants to do it without knowing it, or maybe it is only this suitable poison, so he chose Sanhua meridian poison. The layman may not know, but Luo Qingluan, who is proficient in pharmacology, knows that the configuration of the Sanhua meridian poison is very harsh, and it requires three micro-poisonous herbs with similar attributes, which can only be successfully concocted.

And these three poisonous weeds do not stipulate which three must be, as long as the attributes are restrained, and the concocted is hugely toxic, even if it is a three-flower meridian poison. After all, there are too many herbs in the world, and after mixing them together, they change their own attributes, just to distinguish the toxicity is difficult for ninety percent of the doctors, so that on the night when Zhao Ning was prone to poison, it was useless for the Wuyang Mansion to invite the imperial doctor in the palace.

Now Luo Qingluan has figured out that the Sanhua meridian poison that Zhao Ningyi took is made of three kinds of snake grass, lamp flower ember and ghost needle flower.

She couldn't help but be glad that if the other party didn't choose these three poisonous weeds, but used extremely ordinary ones, or they could be bought at will, then it would be difficult for her to find the murderer. But now, because of the particularity of the lantern embers, she only needs to figure out who has used this herb recently, and then she will be able to follow the vine.

Although it is not possible to determine the identity of the poisoner, it is at least an opportunity.

She first asked Liang Yuyan to help check the situation of these three herbs on the market, and at the same time informed Lin Yixuan that the two-pronged approach could save time and know more details from different channels. After all, Luo Qingluan only has five days this time, time is pressing, and she must be as soon as possible to prevent her opponent from getting in the way.

"What about Wuyang Palace, is there any change?" Luo Qingluan asked.

"Not yet, everything is normal."

Liang Yuyan said: "Zhao Ningyi is the only son of King Wuyang after all, and he is naturally sad when he dies, but because of the holy decree of Emperor Southern Wei and your identity as a princess, he is silent for the time being, so the outside world does not know that Zhao Shizi is dead." However, Princess Wuyang was not so restrained, she cried all day yesterday, and said a lot of bad things about the princess, if it weren't for the princess's plan, I really wanted to shut her mouth. ”

Looking at Liang Yuyan's hateful look, Luo Qingluan shook her head: "Forget it, she lost her beloved son after all, although Zhao Ningyi is not a good person, but for Princess Zhao, it is naturally different, we don't care about her." ”

"That's right."

Frowning slightly, Liang Yuyan said: "When I went to check the herbs yesterday, I happened to see the county lord of Qinghe going out, although she was sitting in a sedan chair, but she happened to pass by me, so I saw her." ”

"At this time, shouldn't the county lord of Qinghe stay at home with her mother, why is she still going out?" If so, Luo Qingluan also felt that something was wrong.

"So I also thought it was strange, so I followed it to take a look, and only then did I follow her all the way, only to know that she actually went to the Second Prince's Mansion."

Luo Qingluan suddenly felt that something was wrong: "Zhao Xiu went to Lin Xiaochen?" What to do? ”

As far as she knew, didn't Zhao Xiu have a deep affection for Lin Yixuan, and wished she could be the crown princess as soon as possible, how could she go to the Second Prince's Mansion alone, and it was still at this time? Could it be that she went to Lin Xiaochen to inquire about something, or had a clue about the cause of her brother's death, so she went to ask?

No matter how you say it, these things are not what Zhao Xiu should do at all.

There is only one point, unless the matter is related to Lin Yixuan, and it is related to Zhao Xiu's position as the crown princess, otherwise she will definitely not go to Lin Xiaochen, but I am afraid that she will hide it from her family.

After listening to Luo Qingluan's analysis, Liang Yuyan also nodded: "That's true, I was careless yesterday, I didn't expect to go here." But Princess, it's too late now, and I haven't heard what the county lord of Qinghe and Lin Xiaochen are talking about, what should I do now? ”

After thinking about it, Luo Qingluan said: "Don't worry, if they are just talking about inconsequential matters, then it doesn't matter if you don't know." If Lin Xiaochen needs Zhao Xiu to do something, then we just need to stare at Zhao Xiu, she didn't know that we found out, so naturally she wouldn't be too careful. Yuyan, you find someone to keep an eye on her and see what Zhao Xiu is going to do. ”

……

In the Yunyi Pavilion, the girl was waiting cautiously beside her, and the eyes of Princess Feng of Wuyang were swollen from crying, and she still kept wiping her tears with a silk: "Ning Yi, mother's son...... You've died so miserably......"

Not daring to imagine his brother's tragic death, Zhao Xiu tried his best to keep the situation of that night out of his mind. For Zhao Ningyi, she didn't have much affection, and even wished that she didn't have this brother before, so unlearned, unskilled, and a person who waited for death, she became his sister, which was simply humiliating.

It's just that, looking at Feng's sad appearance, Zhao Xiu couldn't bear it: "Mother, don't cry, my father will definitely avenge my brother, no matter who killed my brother, he can't run away." ”

"As soon as I saw the seductive look of the woman, I knew it had to be her."

Raising his head, revealing a face with bleak makeup, Feng Shi said hatefully: "Your Majesty was also bluffed by her identity, for fear of offending the King of Chu, otherwise how dare that woman be so arrogant and poison your brother." ”

As soon as Luo Qingluan was mentioned, Zhao Xiu's heart was not happy: "But isn't it, it's obvious that she is the most suspicious, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still protecting her, saying that she is pregnant and working, and she is still living in the Prince's Mansion at this time, I am really not afraid that she will affect herself!" ”

Although Lin Yixuan was also good to her before, and there were even rumors that the queen wanted her to be the crown princess, compared to Luo Qingluan, Zhao Xiu knew that she was inferior to her from the first time.

It's not as good as her status in the heart of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

"Mother, you said, if it is really found out that it was Princess Chu who killed her brother," Zhao Xiu asked Feng tentatively, "You say, will His Royal Highness the Crown Prince shield that woman and even intercede for her?" ”

When Feng Shi heard this, he also felt the seriousness of the matter, his son died and could not be resurrected, but his daughter still had to marry the prince, but judging from the current situation, the prince's attitude towards this princess of Chu is indeed different!

There was such a big murder, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not hesitate to believe it, and was even willing to enter the palace to intercede for her, such an attitude had never been so kind to her daughter before.

Looking at Zhao Xiu, Feng asked, "Xiu'er, are you worried about the prince in case he falls in love with that woman, aren't you?" ”

"Not really."

Zhao Xiu had already thought very clearly, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really liked Luo Qingluan, but after all, she was the woman of the King of Chu, and she was still pregnant, so it was impossible for her to have anything to do with His Royal Highness the Prince. After a long time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will forget her after all.

But what she was worried about was what the second prince Lin Xiaochen said yesterday.

Although she rarely interacted with the second prince before, yesterday Lin Xiaochen put her heart into her heart and talked about what she was worried about but didn't notice.

"Mother, what does my daughter mean, what if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince continues to help that woman, and she takes the opportunity to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do something? For example, destroying criminal evidence, bribing witnesses, etc., will it be difficult for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to be affected by the time? The more Zhao Xiu thought about it, the more worried she became, for fear that Lin Yixuan would really be deceived by Luo Qingluan.

When Feng Shi heard this, he suddenly felt that the problem was really serious. She saw the prince's attitude towards Luo Qingluan with her own eyes, not to mention anything else, if the woman couldn't find evidence to prove her innocence after five days, the prince would definitely intercede for her, but her Wuyang Mansion would naturally not give up, and Your Majesty also needs an explanation, in case the prince goes to intercede, I'm afraid that it will anger Your Majesty!

If something goes wrong with the prince, it will inevitably affect her Xiu'er, and such a thing must not happen.

Looking at her mother's face, Zhao Xiu thought about it again and again, and whispered: "Mother, I think, do you want to do something?" ”

"Yes, that woman must not be allowed to affect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Feng's hatred swelled up, and his eyes were full of hatred, "Since she dares to kill your brother, then we can't let her go unpunished, Xiu'er, you go to the prince's mansion immediately, no matter what excuse you use, it's ......"

whispered something in Zhao Xiu's ear, and Feng said hatefully: "It's about your position as the crown princess, and you have to avenge your brother, Xiu'er, this matter can only rely on you." ”

At dusk, the sun is setting in the west, and the secret guards on duty at the gate of the prince's mansion are also a little more leisurely.

It's time for the shift change again, and the two teams are handing over the work, and there is no serious tension at all when performing tasks on weekdays. For them, although they stayed in the prince's mansion, they didn't think anything would happen.

As long as the princess of Chu doesn't leave the palace, the rest of the people will go on as usual, this is the holy decree received by the secret guards.

After all, this is the prince's mansion, and it is not the prince's guilt, they naturally show respect, and even be polite to the guards of the palace. In just five days, they will be able to complete the task, and for Luo Qingluan, the pregnant princess of Chu, they feel that this task is easy.

Soon the handover was completed, and it was a new pair of people who were in charge of the night, and when Liang Yuyan came to the prince's mansion again, they didn't care. After all, if Princess Chu wants to prove that she did not poison Zhao Shizi, she must find evidence, as for the people who enter and leave the prince's mansion, this is a matter that belongs to the guards of the prince's mansion, and it has nothing to do with them.

Soon, Liang Yuyan saw Luo Qingluan: "Princess, your subordinates have already found out what you ordered." ”

At this moment, Lin Yixuan also happened to come in, and as soon as he saw Luo Qingluan, he said, "Qingluan, there is a result......"

When he saw Liang Yuyan, who was also in the room, he found that there was someone, but the matter was important, and he didn't have time to delay, nodded at Liang Yuyan, and told Luo Qingluan the result: "My people went to the Tai Hospital to check, in the past month, only Zhang Yaoshun, the deputy envoy of the Tai Hospital, has used the flavor medicine of lamp flower embers, which is said to be begged by the people in the imperial dining room, saying that he wants to prepare some rat poison." ”

"Zhang Yaoshun Imperial Doctor Zhang?"

Hearing this, Liang Yuyan's eyes also moved, and she immediately said to Luo Qingluan: "Coincidentally, among the people who treated Zhao Shizi, there also happened to be Imperial Doctor Zhang Yaoshun. And I also inquired that he just asked for leave yesterday, saying that he had returned to his hometown for an emergency, and I think he must be suspicious! ”
