Chapter 52: Catch the bag on the spot
Luomei Ju.
Gong Ling had dinner and was taking a walk. After kneeling in the ancestral hall for three days, she has been grounded.
In the past, those people who flattered themselves did not dare to approach Luomeiju. Even on the day of the 100-day banquet, Duchess Chen Guo did not come to see her. Gong Ruo'er stood up for her, but as a result, she was ridiculed by Shen Qingru, and Gong Lan had already sent someone to talk about it.
Gong Ling hated Shen Qingru very much in his heart.
She regretted that she couldn't kill Shen Qingru that day, giving her a chance to fight back.
However, Gong Ling is in a very good mood now. After a day of trouble, Gong Lan had already asked someone to send her a message. Knowing that Xiao Shizi was about to die, Gong Ling breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
It's not in vain that she tried her best to get rid of it, and when this little sin died, she left a Shen Qingru, and she didn't let her handle it.
Hearing that the next person said that Fu Hui was coming, Gong Ling frowned in disgust, but still beckoned to bring someone over.
When Fu Rui saw the palace spirit, she knelt down and begged, "Ask the side concubine to save the slave and maid." ”
Gong Ling said: "Save you? Okay, why did I save you? ”
Fu Hui hurriedly said: "It's not that Concubine Fang asked me to poison Xiao Shizi, people who have been exposed to poison will smell on their bodies, please ask Concubine Fang to help." ”
Gong Ling slapped the table and said, "Bastard, who asked you to poison Xiao Shizi, don't frame this palace." ”
Fu Hui was stunned for a moment and said, "It's the poison given to me by the side concubine......"
The eldest girl beside Gong Ling, Suzu Lan, said: "Furui, you have to think before you speak." ”
Fu Rui hurriedly said: "It was the slave and maid who said the wrong thing, the side concubine did not let the slave and the maid harm people, and asked the side concubine to save the slave and maid." ”
Gong Ling nodded with satisfaction, and said, "What do you mean by what you just said?" ”
Fleur repeated what she had heard from Aunt Lan.
Lily of the valley circled around the hibiscus, sniffed her nose, and said, "It doesn't smell like anything." ”
Furao hurriedly said: "Ordinary people can't smell it." ”
Gong Ling stroked his hair, "Then how can I save you?" ”
Fleur was about to speak, when a playful voice interjected, "I can't save anything." ”
Several of the people who spoke were taken aback. Especially Gong Ling, after seeing the person clearly, his body went weak and fell crookedly on Lily of the Valley's body.
Fu Rui also sat on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Second Young Master...... The prince ......"
Along with Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ran, there were also several subordinates from the palace.
Xiao Yuan glanced at a few people expressionlessly, and ordered: "Take people to Mingxin Hall and invite everyone in each room." There is also the princess and Imperial Doctor Li together. ”
Gong Ling came back to his senses at this time, and was about to pounce on Xiao Yuan's body, Xiao Yuan turned sideways slightly, Gong Ling fell to the ground, and he didn't care about the pain, and hurriedly said: "Lord Shizi, it's not what you think, I'm innocent." ”
Xiao Ran laughed and said, "Concubine Fang, my brother didn't say anything, what are you nervous about." ”
Gong Ling glared at him hatefully, and Xiao Yuan said, "What's there, go to Mingxin Hall and talk about it." ”
With that, he took the lead and left.
Gong Ling knew that he had fallen on the Tao today, stared at Fu Hui viciously, and threatened in a low voice: "If you dare to say half a word nonsense, be careful of your own and your family's heads." ”
Fleur's heart trembled, and she didn't even have the strength to stand up. was dragged to Mingxin Hall.
Forget the moon and curry, Shen Qingru calculated that the hour should be almost the same. Sure enough, when they heard the report from the next person, the prince invited them to Mingxin Hall.
Xiao Yueli and Shen Qingru glanced at each other, and the two of them helped the princess left and right.
When I arrived at Mingxin Hall, the old prince, the old princess, and the prince were all there. The second and fourth rooms have also arrived.
Qin Xiyan, who has not been seen for a few days, is actually there. Seeing Shen Qingru and a few people coming in, he greeted the princess and smiled at Shen Qingru friendly.
This one is deeper than the Palace Spirit City Mansion. Since the lemon incident, he has never taken the initiative to find fault. Occasionally, when I saw Shen Qingru, I was all respectful.
It's really one after the other. Shen Qingru sighed secretly and smiled back.
Fleur knelt in the middle, and Gong Lan helped Lily of the Valley to stand on the side.
The second old man said: "Yuan'er, what is this?" "Actually, about Xiao Ji'er's poisoning, when he came back at night, the second wife told him. Looking at this posture, I also guessed one or two. It's just that no one said anything, so I asked.
Xiao Yuan didn't say anything, Xiao Ran said: "Second uncle, don't worry, you'll know later." After that, he kicked Fleur and said, "Don't say it quickly." ”
Fu Rui trembled and said, "What the second young master said, the slave doesn't know. ”
Xiao Ran sighed and said, "At this time, I haven't said anything, do you want to be exterminated by the Nine Clans?" Xiao Ji'er is the emperor's own king of Anjun, you have a few heads, dare to poison him. ”
Fu Hui's body was weak, and she hurriedly kowtowed, crying: "Second Young Master Mingjian, it's not a slave, a slave doesn't dare to eat a bear's heart and a leopard's guts." ”
The old princess said sharply: "Is it your poison?" After she went back, she had been restless, and it was easy to survive until the night, and when she heard that Xiao Yuan had caught the murderer, she came over immediately.
Fleur was still shouting about wrongdoing.
Xiao Ran said: "Grandmother, my eldest brother and I saw her go to the palace concubine with our own eyes, and heard her say with our own ears that it was the concubine who poisoned her. ”
Shen Qingru stood up suddenly, shook her body a few times, and said in disbelief: "Concubine Fang, why are you doing this." I know that usually, you look at me unpleasantly, but Ji'er is innocent, she is still so young, how can you do it. ”
Gong Ling was anxious, pointed at Shen Qingru and said, "Don't spew blood, when did I poison people." ”
Shen Qingru said: "Do you dare to swear? If you instruct others to poison them, you will be lonely and helpless for the rest of your life, and you will have no children or daughters, and you will not be able to die well. After death, he will go to eighteen layers of hell, and he will not be able to live forever. ”
Gong Ling seemed to be frightened by Shen Qingru's vicious curse, and he didn't dare to speak for a while.
The second wife covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "This oath, you can't make it indiscriminately, there are gods three feet above your head, if it really comes true, it will be terrible." Fourth brother and sister, you said yes? "Anyway, whoever is unlucky in the big house has nothing to do with their second room. Besides, Gong Ling has been in the palace for half a year, relying on Gong Lan to be a lot of prestige, and he didn't even pay attention to the second wife. Now, something happened to her, and the second wife watched the play happily.
The fourth lady only came back from her mother's house in the evening, and she heard that something had happened in the palace. Sifang has always been honest, and the fourth wife doesn't talk much. After listening to the words of the second wife, she smiled awkwardly and did not respond.
As soon as the second wife's words came out, Gong Ling didn't dare to open it. just shouted without confidence: "I didn't do it, why do you have to swear?" ”
Shen Qingru said: "Since you haven't done it, why can't you swear." ”
Gong Ling stiffened his neck and said, "I said I didn't do it, I didn't do it, do you have any evidence?" ”
Xiao Ran kicked Fu Hui and said, "Or die?" My eldest brother and I can still wronged you. Someone came, brought all the jewelry found from her room, and the princess who guarded the door of the Forgotten Moon Residence, and brought them together. ”
A fine layer of sweat immediately appeared on Fleur's head.
Mrs. Wang was soon brought up, and when she saw this posture in the room, her legs weakened, and she knelt down.
Xiao Ran said: "What did Fu Hui do to you tonight, tell me clearly, if there is a lie, be careful of your head." ”
Mrs. Wang nodded like pounding garlic, and hurriedly told her about the two taels of silver that she had secretly given to her, and she also took them out together, kowtowed: "Fleur said that her brother was sick and wanted to go back, I really didn't know that she was going to find the side concubine, and I didn't know that she poisoned Xiao Shizi." Pray for mercy from my master. ”
At this time, many of the jewels found in the hibiscus room were also brought up.
Fleur stumbled and said, "These jewels were bought by slaves and maids with monthly money." ”
The second lady stepped forward and picked up a gold-inlaid hosta and said, "The color of this jade is so good, it will cost more than 20 taels of silver, to say the least." He picked up another gold bracelet, "This gold is so large that I can't buy a dozen taels." When did the moonsilver of the people in the palace be so high? It's all time to catch up with the master. ”
Fleur snorted and didn't speak. Gong Ling looked at the second wife as if he was going to eat her. On weekdays, she pretends to be tall, and if there is a god, it is her happiest to jump.
Xiao Ran bent down, leaned close to her ear and said, "Is someone threatening you and not letting you say it?" You don't think about it, she can't protect herself, can she still protect you? Anyway, maybe Big Brother will be merciful and spare your life, but if you don't say it, you and your family will really die. I remember, you have a younger brother at home, who is only eight years old, and he is going to die because of you, which is really pitiful. ”
Fu Hui was already frightened, but she was dying, but now that the human and material evidence was there, Xiao Ran's words broke the last line of defense, and cried: "I said, I said, it was the side concubine, it was the side concubine who gave the slave and maid poison, let me find a chance to be in Xiao Shizi's meal." ”
Gong Ling didn't expect her to really admit it, and said angrily: "Nonsense." I'll tear your mouth apart. "I just want to hit someone.
was stopped by Xiao Yuan and pushed to the side. said: "Let her finish." ”
Gong Ling bit her mouth and looked at Fu Yuan unwillingly, but Xiao Yuan looked at her coldly from the side, and she didn't dare to take action.
Fu Hui cried and said, "Four days ago, as soon as Concubine Fang came out of the ancestral hall, she asked Sister Lily of the Valley to come to me. He gave me a bag of poison and five hundred taels of silver, and asked me to hold a hundred-day banquet on the second day, and many people put poison into Xiao Shizi's food. He also threatened me that if I refused, I would take the lives of my slaves and my family. The slave couldn't, so she had to agree. On the afternoon of the second day, while the nurse was not paying attention, he put the poison into the egg custard and watched Xiao Shizi eat it with his own eyes. also reported a letter to the side concubine. The concubine gave the slave maid another five hundred taels of silver. Let the slave and maid take a good look at it, and report to her if there is a situation. ”
Shen Qingru clenched his fists, the little bun gradually grew bigger, and Shen Qingru began to feed him some complementary food. Recently, I've been asking him to eat some custard every day. Usually, she personally checks and feeds herself. On the day of the 100-day banquet, she was a little tired in the afternoon, so she handed it over to the daughter-in-law of the pillar. Just once, let people have a chance.
Xiao Ran said: "What about the poison? ”
Fleur replied, "The poison ran out, and the bottle was buried by the slave in the corner of the backyard, with a plane tree on the side. ”
Xiao Ran glanced at it, and Manager Wan hurriedly asked people to find it.
Xiao Ran said again: "You said that the palace concubine asked you to do it, what evidence is there?" ”
