Chapter 11: The Most Poisonous Woman's Heart
The warblers sing and dance, the wine and the beauties, everyone enjoys it.
Suddenly, Prince Xun'er, who was sitting on the throne of the prince, foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground and died. Crying, shouting, the scene suddenly became a pot of porridge.
Concubine Xiang hugged the prince's corpse and cried to death, "Xun'er, wake up, wake up, you open your eyes and look at Eniang, Xun'er ......"
"Give me an investigation, give me a thorough investigation, who harmed my emperor, I want to break his body into ten thousand pieces and destroy his nine clans." The emperor was furious.
Orange Creek was so frightened that his whole body trembled, once he was bitten by a snake, he was afraid of the well rope for ten years, last time the prince died, and he was falsely imprisoned, and this time, the prince died. Orange Creek thought: No wonder the emperor has three palaces and six courts, according to this way of death, no matter how many princes die, it is not enough to die!
What the prince ate and who gave it, checked one by one, asked one by one, and everyone present became the object of suspicion.
It is estimated that because they have been in the palace for a long time, the ladies and ladies of each palace and hall have answered each other fluently, without the slightest panic. Not only that, but while they are rushing to defend themselves, they don't forget to splash dirty water on their opponents.
The emperor was so noisy by them, "Okay, don't make a noise, a raccoon dog, I don't know your thoughts, can I be quiet?" ”
Just when there was no clue about the matter, a childish voice surprised everyone, "Brother Prince ate osmanthus cake." Jiu Gege pointed at the motionless Prince Xun'er in Concubine Xiang's arms with his little finger.
Yang Guiren hurriedly covered her daughter's mouth with her hand, for her, who had no power behind her and only one character under her knees, no matter who did it, she couldn't afford to be guilty, and she would lose her life if she wasn't careful.
It's a pity that it's too late, "Come, Ping'er, come to Huang Ama." "Jiu Gege, who just turned three years old, ran to the emperor's side." Tell Huang Ama, who gave the osmanthus cake to the prince's brother? ”
Jiu Gege pointed to Concubine Li, who was about to speak, "It's Concubine Li's mother." ”
"It's not a concubine, the concubine's osmanthus cake is not poisonous, the emperor will check it, the emperor will check it." Concubine Li panicked.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Ping'er is only three years old, and you can't believe what a child says." Yang Guiren was more nervous than Concubine Li, and hurriedly explained.
"Doctor Liu, test, test osmanthus cake." The emperor said angrily.
Mrs. Liu tried the remaining osmanthus cake on the table with a silver needle, "Your Majesty, the osmanthus cake is poisonous." ”
"The bold concubine dared to murder the prince." The emperor smashed the teacup in his hand to the ground.
"The emperor has been wronged! If the concubine really wants to harm the prince, how can she put the poison in her osmanthus cake? How could a concubine be such a foolish person? Li Concubine knelt on the ground and defended herself.
"Okay, you said it wasn't you, but you told me, who is it?" The emperor was so angry that he lost his mind.
"Your Majesty, murdering the prince is a big crime, let's investigate it thoroughly! These things are the business of the subordinates, so let's start with the subordinates who are close to Concubine Li! Even if anyone does anything, it must be among them. The queen made a statement to the emperor.
After a thorough investigation of the people around Li Concubine, this osmanthus cake was ordered by Li Concubine, from the picking of osmanthus to the production of the pastry, it was personally done by Li Concubine's personal maid, and the spearhead was instantly pointed at her. She was immediately thrown into prison and tortured, a small weak woman, where could she withstand such a crime, in order to suffer less crime, she bit her tongue and committed suicide in prison.
With the death of an important suspect, the matter was settled. Concubine Li was demoted to Shuyi because of her lax discipline. A second-grade concubine, in the blink of an eye, became a fourth-grade Shuyi, and from now on, she will have to suffer from others' fingers, no matter how she argues, in the eyes of others, the prince is what she killed.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xiang insisted on not letting us take away the body of His Royal Highness the Prince, saying that she wanted the Prince to accompany her for the last night." The eunuch reported.
"Let her be! Her heart hurts the most. The emperor looked sad and waved his hand to let the eunuch out.
Concubine Xiang hugged the prince's corpse, combed his hair in a bun, changed into new clothes for him, and lay on the bed with the prince in her arms, her face was full of tears, but she didn't see any sadness. "Xun'er, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, E-Niang can't help it, E-Niang can't let you be E-Niang's handle, your Ama is gone, E-Niang is trembling every day, for fear that one day the emperor will know your life experience......"
There was a cry in his words just now, and he was murderous for a moment, "Don't worry, E-Niang won't let you die in vain, your revenge and your brother will avenge you, it's them, it's the emperor, it's the damn Tong Zhaoyi, it's they who forced E-niang, and E-niang doesn't want to kill you with her own hands...... It's a pity that Na Li Concubine escaped. ”
It turned out that Concubine Xiang knew that Concubine Li was fond of osmanthus cakes, and she was always a personal maid herself, so she sprinkled poison on the osmanthus tree.
The mouth of the green bamboo snake and the needle behind the tail of the wasp are neither poisonous, and they are the most poisonous to women's hearts. What a poisonous woman is this, even her own flesh and blood will not be spared, as the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children!
"Really, I don't know where the dead bees came from, all over the place, even the bees are bullying us who are subordinates." A group of maids cleaning the back garden were complaining.
Orange Creek passed by and saw the corpses of bees and insects all over the ground, took off the silver hairpin and tried it, and the result was just as she thought. She thought: Routines are all routines, what a master! "It's none of your business, hang it high, just watch the live-action version of the palace scheming!"
Oh, yes! As long as she lives, the so-called fame and fortune are just passing clouds for Orange Creek and for her who she doesn't know who she really is. Now her only hope is the few opportunities to meet Heber. Hoping to leave the palace again one day has become her biggest dream here.
Autumn goes to winter, and in the blink of an eye it enters the cold winter, a few days ago, it snowed heavily every day, and the concubines all hid in the house to start a group, and the harem suddenly became much cleaner and more peaceful.
On this day, it was a rare sunny day, and Orange Creek, who had been stuffy in the house for a few days, came to the Imperial Garden early in the morning to enjoy the plum blossoms. The north wind howled overnight, and the flowers fell. Looking at the plum blossoms falling all over the ground, Orange Creek felt pity. "Come on, pick up these petals and find a place to bury them...... It is not a pity to be trampled on by such a proud snow. ”
Although, the people don't know why, but they don't ask much, aren't all masters like this? I've got nothing to do!
"Papapa......" A loud clapping sound came, and the emperor walked from behind, "I didn't expect that my Zhaoyi would be so careful, burying flowers...... Wonderful. ”
"Respectfully Emperor Sheng'an, I'm also bored, just follow the example of Daiyu Funeral Flowers, isn't it stupid?" Orange Creek looked embarrassed.
"Silly, my harem, if they are all fools like you, then it's good! Let's go, accompany me to play a game. After the emperor finished speaking, he moved towards the Smoke Wind Palace.
