Chapter 107: The Queen's Poisoning (Part II)
[Chapter 1, Volume 1]
Section 109 Chapter 107 The Poisoning of the Empress (Medium)
Hearing Duanmu Qing's cold drink, the eldest prince and Concubine Qin were suddenly startled.
Duanmu Lingyun knelt on the ground, and before he could say the words of Greeting, he only felt a darkness in front of him, and a force came, hitting the 'chest' and falling to the ground suddenly! raised his head in disbelief and looked at Duanmu Qing with anger on his face: "Father, ......"
Duanmu Qing actually kicked the heart of the eldest prince!
Clenched his fists tightly, Duanmu Lingyun only felt that the whole person was trampled under the feet of the emperor who was high in front of him! This man was his father, and he was the most rightful heir, but he was kicked to the ground in full view of everyone!
The palace 'girl' and the slave knelt on the ground, lying on the ground and not daring to raise their heads!
Duanmuqing pointed to the eldest prince with an indignant face, and trembled with anger: "Okay, you are an unfilial son, your queen mother is poisoned and is now in a coma and not awake, you know how to get rid of the poison 'sex' without first telling the imperial doctor to treat your queen mother, but here you are playing a big role, do you still have filial piety in your eyes?" ”
The eldest prince was suddenly shocked, and he didn't know what he would do to fight for the throne if his reputation fell: "Father, the son knows that he is wrong!" Erchen heard that the queen mother was poisoned and unconscious, and he hated to replace him, and now he found the suspect, and only thought of breaking her body into thousands of pieces to avenge his mother, and he was dizzy for a while, and asked his father to forgive him......"
Duanmu Qing looked coldly at the eldest prince who was holding his 'legs' with a mournful face, and his expression was dim. Gude, who was on the side, saw the eldest prince like this, and hurriedly stepped forward and said softly: "Your Highness, you better let go of the emperor first, the emperor heard that the queen mother was poisoned, and he was very worried, so let the emperor sit aside for a while!" ”
Duanmu Lingyun choked, although Gude was an old man beside the emperor, but without the emperor's instructions, where did he dare to say such a thing, he thought in his heart, and hurriedly knelt aside: "Father, the son knows that you are worried about the queen mother, but please pay more attention to your body, otherwise the queen mother will not be at ease when she wakes up!" Hate only hates the person who poisons, and dares to hurt the mother of a country, this is a heart of disobedience! Please see it! ”
Duanmu Qing pursed the corners of his mouth, and looked at Duanmu Lingyun with a coercive gaze: "Oh? It seems that you are very concerned about your mother's body, so I have just made it clear to you, why don't you send someone to talk to the imperial doctor who treats your mother? ”
The eldest prince was shocked, but he didn't expect Duanmu Qing to hold on to this matter, raised his head slightly and met his cold eyes without any emotion, and suddenly his back was cold, and cold sweat suddenly wet his clothes: "Father, son, minister......"
Concubine Qin on the side hurriedly looked at the imperial doctor on the side: "Imperial doctor, please hurry up and take a look at the queen's mother, the mother is fine, the emperor and the emperor will not be so worried!" The emperor, the eldest prince is also worried about the queen mother for a while, this is 'messy' proportions, he has been in poor health some time ago, this ground is cold, in case the cold is like the topic, the queen mother woke up and knew how to be sad? ”
Mu Qingya slightly hooked the corners of her 'lips', Concubine Qin's words not only explained her concern for the queen's mother, but also helped the eldest prince to relieve the siege, and showed her kindness in front of Duanmuqing.
Duanmuqing's anger was slightly reduced, and he looked at Mu Qingya, who had been standing quietly on the side as if he was out of the way: "Qingya, what is the matter with this?" Offending these minions? ”
His words almost made the maintenance of Mu Qingya clear, and the faces of Lin 'Yu' Yan and Concubine Qin on the side changed instantly, and they secretly thought of the plan they had already designed, so they gritted their teeth and did not show any abnormality! In their hearts, they hated Mu Qingya thoroughly, they just couldn't understand what such a girl was worthy of Duanmu Qingqing's attention, and they even spoke out to defend it without even asking, ignoring their life and death! Thinking like this, even if he has already seen through the cannibalistic nature of this palace, he still can't help but feel desolate!
Mu Qingya stepped forward slightly, and actually knelt down: "Your Majesty, Qingya doesn't know what's going on, everything is up to the emperor!" ”
Duanmu Qing glanced at her quietly, and before she could speak, the eldest prince on the side couldn't hold her breath: "Father, this slut is lying!" Concubine Qin and Lin Ruren have already said that she actually poisoned her food, so that Lin Ruren was poisoned, but I didn't expect that she still has no remorse! ”
"Girl, your skills are good, and you can even be poisoned?" Duanmu Qing said meaninglessly.
Mu Qingya didn't get up, lowered her head slightly, didn't speak, only kowtowed deeply!
Duanmu Qing looked at the eldest prince with righteous words, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, for this sister-in-law, he also put a lot of patience into cultivating at the beginning, but it was a pity that he was spoiled by too superior position! has formed such a domineering 'sex'!
"Since you are poisoned, you can't rely on one-sided words, but what evidence is there?"
"Your Majesty, I don't believe that Qingya did this matter, please ask the emperor to investigate it thoroughly, although Qingya has a misunderstanding about the slave and maid, but in the end, she will not treat the slave and maid like this, please the emperor will be clear!" Lin took two steps forward, staggered to his knees, kowtowed heavily to Duanmu Qingqing, and didn't forget to glance at Mu Qingya comfortingly!
"Well, come on, King Xuan will come over and search the Ninghua Hall inside and out, I want to see where there are so many poisonous 'medicines'!" Duanmu Qing said coldly, his ice-like eyes passed over everyone, was he really old and confused? There were people poisoned at both ends of the palace for three days, and when did the heavily guarded harem become a sieve, and everything was sent in!
Mu Qingya knelt on the ground, her knees tingled, although she had entered the palace a lot of times, but she had never knelt for so long as she did now, she was so delicate, she thought that in order to beg her younger brother Mu Xuanming, she had kneeling outside Concubine Li's palace for two days and two nights! Glancing at Lin 'Yu' Yan on the side, her mind turned slightly, although she loved Qin Jin very much, but in the end she cared more about herself, otherwise she would not have thought about how to calculate her at this time, she had also seen a lot of warm and cold people in the people, some people sold their sons and daughters to people for money, and some people worked hard for their children and bandits! Although there is not much emotion, in the end, Qin Jin is still not worth it in his heart! No matter how beautiful she is and how talented she is, her grandfather and father use her as a bargaining chip, and her mother treats her as a chess piece, and she is also a poor person in the end!
Suddenly, Wang Yao's voice interrupted her Hus's 'chaotic' thought:
"Your Majesty, Weichen has already checked and found a bag of 'medicine' powder in Miss Mu's room that is the same as the poison in Lin Ruren!"
Duanmu Qing's eyes changed: "Are you sure?" ”
Wang Yao nodded: "Back to the emperor, there is nothing wrong!" One of a kind, indeed! ”
"Mu Qingya, what do you have to say?" Duanmuqing's expression was unfathomable, and his serious face did not distinguish between joy and anger!
"Back to the emperor, the courtiers don't know!"
"Don't know? You think you can prevaricate by not knowing! The eldest prince's face was full of anger, "Father, it must be Mu Qingya's dissatisfaction that boldly did such a rebellious thing, please ask my father to severely punish Mu Qingya!" ”
Duanmuqing turned the Buddha beads in his hand, and his eyes gradually precipitated: "Mu Qingya, do you know the crime of bullying the king?" ”
"Back to the emperor, the minister's 'daughter' knows, it is precisely because the minister's 'daughter' knows, so he has been answering the emperor and saying that he doesn't know, Qingya does not know what happened now, although he went to the queen's palace a few days ago, but he was only invited to enjoy the 'flowers', and he has not been in contact with the queen's mother, moreover, the palace is heavily guarded, where can Qingya have the opportunity to hurt the mother's phoenix body, and ask the emperor to see!" He didn't know what was going on, so he answered with not knowing, so the eldest prince, who was also unclear about this matter, kept saying that he wanted to be punished, and the hidden danger of bullying the monarch was buried!
"Father, this is clearly quibbling!"
Duanmu Qing looked at the eldest prince: "What should you do according to your words?" ”
"Back to my father, according to the opinion of the son, I will first scold her with twenty rods, and see if she can recruit her!"
Duanmuqing's face turned dark, and before the words of reprimand could be spoken, a 'waiter' hurriedly ran over: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has come down, and he also brought a palace 'girl' named Yinhong, saying that he saw that the palace 'girl' was burying something in the corner next to the royal 'flower' garden!" ”
"Biography!" Duanmu Qing's movement of twisting the Buddha beads stopped, and then said casually!
Duanmu Lingyu was dressed in a gorgeous outfit, holding a folding fan with plum 'flowers' falling snow in his hand, and his clothes were graceful, obviously he had just returned from outside the palace: "Erchen has seen his father!" ”
Seeing his dress, Duanmuqing's face turned cold: "Look where you still have a little princely appearance!" What a system! ”
Duanmu Lingyu stood up indifferently, and picked up the fan and fanned it at the right time, his eyes swept over Mu Qingya, who was kneeling on the side, and his eyes moved slightly: "Father, don't worry about these things for now, when the son just came back from outside the palace, he saw this slave and maid panicking to the emperor." Hua 'Yuan ran, so let Wei Xi follow over to see, I didn't expect to send her what she was buriing, and after asking for a long time, I found out that it was Concubine Qin's slave here, so I pulled her over, speaking of which, what did this girl do, it's strange! Father, this slave is burying some powder, and the son asked Wei Xi to take some, and it just so happens that the imperial physician is also there, so let's take a look, what kind of harmful thing is this! ”
Wang Yao on the side saw it and hurriedly stepped forward to check: "Your Majesty, this powder is the same as the poison found in Miss Mu's room!" ”
"This slave ......," Duanmu Qing frowned.
Yinhong trembled and knelt on the ground, and didn't even dare to raise her head when she heard Duanmuqing's question. Gu De on the side stepped forward slightly and said softly: "Your Majesty, the slave just looked at the palace 'girl' is the slave maid who was just sent out to ask for the imperial doctor, and she just saw her in the palace, I don't know ......!" ”
Duanmu Qing's eyebrows tightened, and he said coldly: "What a bold!" It's not really recruited! ”
"Your Majesty, the slave doesn't know, the slave doesn't know anything!" Yinhong knelt and kowtowed repeatedly, but she only said that she didn't know.
Duanmu Lingyu closed the fan and slapped his palm, and said coldly: "You still haven't recruited from the truth, your father is here, and he will naturally call the shots for you, otherwise you will only have a dead end!" Even your family will not escape the extermination of the Nine Clans! ”
Yinhong raised her head suddenly: "Seventh Prince, don't 'force' the slave maid!" ”
Duanmu Lingyu frowned, and a trace of strangeness crossed his heart: "When did this prince 'force' you, you ......?"
"Your Majesty, please spare your life! The slave and maid are cheap, knowing that it is impossible to escape death today, but please ask the emperor to bypass the slave's family, the slave and maid are 'forced', it is Mu Qingya who took the slave and the slave's family and threatened to let the slave and maid scare the queen and Lin Ruren into poison, and she also asked the slave and maid to poison Concubine Qin's mother, but Concubine Qin's 'milk' mother is not thin with slaves and maids, and slaves and maids are ...... Slaves...... The Seventh Prince just coerced the slave maid even more, asking the slave maid to say that it was the instigation of Concubine Qin, but the slave maid couldn't do such a thing! Niangniang, the slave is sorry for you, you have done such a thing against the master, and the slave and maid will be a cow and a horse in the next life and then repay the mother! After saying that, he fell to the ground with a bang!
Wang Yao hurriedly stepped forward to check, and then was suddenly shocked: "Your Majesty, this slave committed suicide by taking poison!" ”
