Because of the presence of outsiders, Lan Xin didn't want to answer the emperor's words, and he didn't need to annoy him, saying more things that would damage Long Wei. So Lan Xin lowered his head obediently, standing aside without moving. Cao Qinchuan examined the cause of death for Nian's family.

In fact, it couldn't be more obvious, Nian's sudden death must be poisoning. But the crux of the problem is where the poison came from, the porridge rewarded by the Queen Mother is not poisonous, and she has never drunk tea or eaten any pastries.

So, whose ingenuity is it?

Cao Qinchuan took a look and knew that Mo Sang was a person with a body. It can be seen that the gossip in the palace is really not groundless, and the person who handled it is very likely to be the emperor. In this way, Cao Qinchuan couldn't help but be cautious. No wonder the emperor wanted to invite him, a dignified judge, to personally examine the autopsy, because he didn't want to attract the unwarranted suspicion of others. After all, as an old minister, he knows what a gentleman's heart is, and he will not chew nonsense and reveal the rumors at this time.

"Your Majesty, according to the preliminary investigation of the old ministers, he was poisoned and died." Cao Qinchuan didn't say a word about being pregnant, and his face was extremely calm. "This poison is a chronic poison and you may feel uncomfortable if you take it occasionally. It is necessary to take it for a long time, and wait for too much poison to be deposited in the body, which will cause death. In other words, the deceased had been taking poison for a long time, and the old minister estimated that it had been at least more than a month. ”

Hongli suddenly lost color, his face changed from shock to anger, and changed a few times: "How can the Cao Yuan verdict be determined? ”

This also made Lan Xin shocked, how could this be, it was clear that the Queen Mother's decision was only made in the past few days. And the rumors of the harem have only recently made a lot of noise. Yueyu, wasn't that the day when Mo Sang entered the palace, who had such the courage to plan until today from that time?

"Your Majesty, please take a look." Cao Qinchuan pinched Mo Sang's sleeve, pointed to the bruises on his wrist and said: "In fact, the body of the corpse has more bruises like this, precisely because long-term medication has damaged the texture." This kind of poison is not caused by highly toxic drugs such as arsenic and poison, but by swallowing a small amount of chronic poison every day for a long time. It's just for a while, what kind of poison it is, the old minister can't find out yet. ”

"The person is already dead, and since it is known that it was poisoned, it is enough." Hongli was a little discouraged, and there was a lot of anger hidden between his words, quite a bit of a broken jar. "Li Yu, take it down and handle it carefully."

These words shocked Lan Xin again. She didn't understand, if the emperor really had a strong affection for Nian's family, how could he let the servants take the corpse down and dispose of it carefully. She died because of him, and she still carried his flesh and blood in her womb. This coldness is a strangeness that Lan Xin has never seen, and it is hard to imagine that this emperor, who was still angry because of Nian's death, hastily disposed of this woman who made him feel heartache as soon as he turned his face.

Is this really the same person's mind? Lan Xin looked at the man in front of him tremblingly, and his face became more and more gloomy.

Cao Qinchuan saw that there was no need for him to stay here, so he wisely took the opportunity to retreat. The less you know about the royal reputation and the secrets of your master, the better, and the less you know, the more peaceful your heart will be, and the longer your life will be.

"It turns out that the queen arranged everything for me from the beginning, but I was too careless to find out." The cynicism in Hongli's tone is long, the eyes are very disdainful, and the suffocating ruthlessness is revealed.

"When the emperor said this, he thought that the concubine was the one who poisoned him?" Lan Xin couldn't believe it, was the man standing in front of her with a bloody face really her husband? No, it should be said that he is cold, like the Son of Heaven who is high above, and he is a well-deserved Son of Heaven, but he is not her husband or her beloved.

Hongli saw that Lan Xin still had the intention of quibbling and prevarication, and couldn't help frowning: "Qiansang's meals have always been prepared by the imperial dining room. And I often eat with me, but my dragon body has never been damaged in the slightest, why is this so? That means that the person who wants to take Qiansang's life has never thought of hurting me from beginning to end. ”

Lan Xin's tears welled up all of a sudden, she thought that the emperor didn't know her thoughts, so she was so angry. But now she heard it clearly, the emperor knew that from beginning to end, his sincerity was for his good and would not hurt him for half a point. But he still has to speak coldly like this, but he still has to be suspicious of her in every way.

This feeling is no different from Ling Chi's execution, Lan Xin clearly felt that Hongli was cutting her flesh and skin one by one, the straight road was drenched in blood, and the straight road was covered with bruises, and he was unwilling to stop.

"Didn't the emperor want to say that the concubine put the poison in the tonic specially prepared for Nian's in the imperial dining room, and poured her to drink it every day. And the emperor hasn't eaten the supplements needed by those pregnant women, so he's safe, right? Or do you want to say that except for the queen with a dignified concubine, no one has the ability to reach the sky with his hands and eyes, and he can poison the Nian family so silently? ”

Lan Xin's original intention was not to contradict Hongli, but she wanted Hongli to know that the feeling of being suspicious by him was no different from forcing her to die.

But at this time, Hongli no longer believed the words in Lan Xin's mouth, and the only thing hovering in his mind was Qiansang's poignant words from the bottom of his heart.

He just hated himself, why didn't he tell her clearly at that time, sending her out of the palace and letting her take the child away was his last sincerity. So much so that until he died, Qiansang thought that he would inevitably die for him......

To die for the love of your heart, and to be forced to die by your sweetheart is not comfortable at all.

"Since the queen understands, why doesn't she return to me happily?" Hongli's heart is not quiet, he has already blamed himself fiercely, but it is useless. Only when the queen acknowledges all this can his heart be better.

Lan Xin resolutely did not compromise, the matter was not done by her, why did she have to take it on herself. But she is not a concubine, at this critical time, she understands her situation and does not want to break with the emperor. After all, she really loves him, even if he is cold, he is selfish, and he is ruthless and cold.

Thinking so, Lan Xin sighed faintly: "Your Majesty, you can not believe the words of the concubine, but if you want to do these things, you must have someone to help." After all, the poison was not thrown into it by the concubine herself, right? Since this is the case, from the imperial dining room to the heart cultivation hall, who has handled it, you will know it at a check. The matter is not based on nothing, and it will certainly not be impossible to investigate, so I ask the emperor to find a credible person to find out about this matter. If it is really done by the concubine, it will be disposed of by the emperor alone.

However, if it is found that this matter has nothing to do with the concubines, the emperor will have to take back today's words and return the concubines to innocence. ”

Forcibly enduring the heartache, Lan Xin tearfully blessed Hongli: "I didn't show my innocence, I didn't disturb the emperor's investigation of the facts, from today until this matter is complete, the concubine will not take a step out of Changchun Palace." ”

After that, Lan Xin took Jinlan and Suo Lan's hands, turned around painfully, and the tears in his eyes couldn't help falling down at this moment. She frowned, closed her eyes tightly, and whimpered silently. I've never tried it, it's heart-wrenching like now, and I can't wait to break it out in pain.

He is her husband, her closest person, why only doubts, only misunderstandings, why not believe in her innocence? Lan Xin didn't want to ask such ruthless words, because no matter what he said, his heart would only hurt more.

Suo Lan felt Lan Xin trembling violently, and choked in a low voice: "Queen Mother, you keep the phoenix body." Those who are clear will clear themselves, and the emperor will not blame Niangniang. ”

Jinlan understood the queen's feelings this time, after all, she was the one who accompanied the queen day and night all the way. How sincere the queen is to the emperor, how can she not understand. Thinking like this, Jinlan burst into tears like rain, and his heart was very sour. "Niangniang, the emperor was shocked for a while, how could he know that there were people around him who poisoned people every day. Although this matter has nothing to do with you, Niangniang, after all, it is out of the harem.

Xu said that the emperor did not show his mind clearly, he did not suspect that you were poisoned, but ...... Instead, blame you for not taking care of the sinister hearts in the harem. Don't think wildly and misunderstand the emperor's sincerity. ”

Lan Xin's eyes were red, and the slave squeezed out a smile that made people look sad: "This palace understands that this palace is the queen and the daughter of the Fucha clan, even if she loses her life with all her might, she has to live the appearance and bearing of the mother's world." ”

The unspoken words were the most painful thing in Lan Xin's life. is the daughter of the Fucha clan and the queen of the Qing Dynasty, so she can't be a wanton little woman, and she can't be a spoiled and stupid favorite concubine. So everything he gave, he could only bear silently.

including his suspicions, including his suspicions, including his false words that he recognized himself as a curse......

Lan Xin didn't know how she walked back to Changchun Palace, she just remembered his cold expression and his cold accusations. Remember his coldness and ruthlessness. This has become a nightmare in Lan Xin's heart, lingering.

I don't know when the end of such a day will be.

Su Wanrong served the Queen Mother to sleep peacefully, and then she hurried back to Zhongcui Palace without Concubine Hui. This day can be described as thrilling, and when she heard the news that the emperor and the queen had turned their faces, she was even more like a pins and needles, and she couldn't wait to immediately come up with a way to get the best of both worlds, so that the queen was completely defeated.

But who knew that when she returned to Zhongcui Palace, she was restrained by Prince He, who had been hiding in the palace early in the morning. Like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, it is easy to become the prey of a hunter's trap.

"What do you want to do with the Prince? When this Forbidden City is your palace, you can come when you want, and leave when you want? Su Wanrong was also angry, she didn't want to be coerced every time: "If you dare to trespass on Zhongcui Palace again, I will show the emperor and dispose of you according to law." ”

Hongtian didn't pay attention to Concubine Chun's words at all, he only clamped her neck viciously, and asked in an awe-inspiring voice: "Mo Sang's poison, is it you?" ”
