Baili Qingcang looked at the third prince and several courtiers, and the corners of his eyes jumped uncontrollably: "Do you all think the fifth prince is suspicious?" ”

The courtiers who came out to speak were already difficult to ride tigers, they were the most troublesome when Baili Junyi lost power before, and now if they want to hold back, it is estimated that Baili Junyi will not let them go, so they can only fight hard: "For the safety of the emperor, please also ask the emperor to send someone to investigate clearly." ”

Baili Jun sat on the seat carelessly, looking at the kneeling courtiers with cold eyes, some of them were the people of the second prince, and some of them were the people of the third prince, and now they came together in order to deal with him, and their face was really not small, but a group of people who didn't know the truth of the matter at all, recklessly stood up to crusade against him, and they were really ignorant and fearless! Thinking about it, he couldn't help but taunt the third prince, picked up the wine glass and took a sip slowly.

The third prince's heart sank, what did Baili Junyi's expression mean just now? Is he laughing at himself? The plan that originally felt like victory was in hand, suddenly came up with a wave of uneasiness.

Hearing the courtiers' answers, Baili Qingcang smiled coldly: "Do you all think so?" ”

The crown prince took the lead to stand up: "Back to my father, the sons do not agree with the rhetoric of several ministers, the life history of the fifth emperor brother has been investigated very clearly, his biological mother is a virtuous concubine, how can he have a connection with the Dayue Kingdom, and the reasons for revenge and the like don't make sense at all, the fifth emperor brother is the prince, where to deal with a small etiquette waiter with such a calculation, and the five emperor brothers have been grounded before, it has only been a few days since he came out, where is there time to do things at the banquet, and please ask the father to investigate." ”

As soon as the prince's words came out, the third prince and Concubine Li almost couldn't believe their ears, in their plan, even if the prince didn't fall into the well, he would protect himself, how could he suddenly help Baili Junyi speak?

The prince lowered his head, his eyes were gloomy, if he could, he wished that several of his royal brothers were dead, how could he help Baili Junyi speak, but when Baili Junyi and Bu Yuntian returned, he was at the scene, and he also knew that when the preliminary Yuntian was killed, that person was his mother Zhao Huiying, at the beginning, Baili Qingcang cared about the face of the prince and the Zhao family, and did not directly deal with Zhao Huiying, and now everyone is attacking Baili Junyi, if he doesn't stand up and say a fair word, Isn't that showing his cold-bloodedness in front of his father?

Hearing the prince's words, Baili Qingcang's expression was a little satisfied, Bu Yuntian was disfigured by the fire and left the palace, he was not in the palace, so he didn't know that the culprit was Zhao Huiying, now, Zhao Huiying is dead, even if Baili Junyi has hatred, this revenge can be regarded as revenge, how can he find his head, and he now has extremely deep trust in Baili Junyi, and he is more and more angry with this group of courtiers who will do anything to frame Baili Junyi!

"The prince has a point." Baili Qingcang's words made the faces of the ministers below change drastically, "You courtiers, you don't want to worry about the king on weekdays, but you have repeatedly framed my son, this intention is really sinister. ”

Baili Junyi, who had been watching the excitement from the side, stood up: "Father, these people are clearly deliberately framing Erchen, Erchen just took a closer look, the evidence of corruption found by Erchen at the beginning, these people are the most serious, but at the beginning, if they do something serious, even if they do something wrong, then they will be punished together, please ask my father to pick the top of these people and hand them over to Dali Temple for disposal." ”

"Your Majesty, the ministers are wronged, and the ministers are thinking about the emperor's safety."

"Your Majesty, the appearance of poisonous wine at the banquet is really sensational, Weichen and others just want to maintain the emperor's dragon body, please forgive the emperor."

Baili Jun looked at them impatiently: "Father, these people still don't admit their guilt to death, they are simply unrepentant, when you personally issued a holy decree, announcing that the sons of the world are the sons of virtuous concubines, these people openly question your will, isn't it a great disrespect?" Ministers, isn't it a contradiction that you keep saying that you are thinking about your father, but what you are doing is questioning the majesty of your father? ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, but Weichen doesn't dare."

Baili Qingcang looked at the ministers in disgust, and waved his hand to let the guards enter the door: "Take off the flower feathers worn by these courtiers, put them in the prison of the Criminal Department, and wait for disposal." The men were repeating those words, and he was tired of hearing them.

The third prince sat in the seat, but his hands and feet couldn't stop being weak, and his father didn't suspect Baili Junyi at all, why? Shouldn't that be......

Baili Junyi swept the people who were doing it with cold eyes: "Father, although those criminals are hateful, but what they said has some truth, at the banquet you held, the wine was poisonous, or an inexplicable poison like Hedinghong, the sinister intentions of the people behind this can be seen, we must strictly investigate to the end, and catch the mastermind behind the scenes!" ”

Baili Qingcang nodded, and he was a little afraid in his heart, his eyes couldn't help but sweep among several princes and concubines, and those who could do anything at the palace banquet were afraid that only these people in the palace were ......

Concubine Qi took the lead in speaking out: "Your Majesty, this banquet is the responsibility of the concubine, if something happens, the concubine has an unshirkable responsibility, please punish the emperor." ”

Concubine Qi is in charge of the banquet, if she does something, she will lift a stone and hit her own feet, so she is not suspicious, but she must also be investigated.

Baili Qingcang opened his mouth and said, "Where is the Dragon Scale Army? ”

"The minions are here!"

"Strictly check all the people who have come into contact with food and wine in the imperial dining room to the palace banquet, and bring any suspicious people to the main hall immediately."

"Yes!"

The dragon scale army moved quickly, and the news had already been received from the imperial dining room, and they were already frightened, and the little stewards and the like hurriedly counted the number of people under their hands, for fear that the problem would be on their side, and the other palace people went around to see if there was anything abnormal, and when the time came, they could barely save their lives.

After a while, the Dragon Scale Army found that there was one less palace maid in charge of serving the dishes, and hurriedly sent people to check everywhere, and finally found someone in a utility room, but he had already hanged himself.

The leader of the Dragon Scale Army could only report the news: "Back to the emperor, a palace maid was found hanging in the utility room. ”

Baili Qingcang frowned: "Hanged? ”

"Yes, the palace maid has been in charge of cleaning outside the imperial dining room, and it was called because of the lack of temporary manpower, and the servant inquired and found that this palace maid is usually silent, and has no contact with other people."

Baili Junyi's eyes moved slightly: "Father, how can this little palace maid have the ability to get a poison like Hedinghong, and successfully pour it into the wine?" There must be someone else to help! ”

"What Lao Wu said makes sense, what can you do?"

"Father, the son just asked Ning Hua, saying that Hedinghong is a liquid, and it should be held in a special jade bottle or glass bottle, because a banquet is going to be held, and there are guards and palace people everywhere, and it is not convenient to deal with this bottle, so gather all the palace people first, search them one by one, and find physical evidence, isn't it easy to check?"

"Do as the five princes say."

The guards of the Dragon Scale Army hurriedly received the order, and the search was completed after a while: "Your Majesty, there is nothing special found on those palace people outside. ”

Shen Ninghua glanced at the third prince and found that he didn't have a panicked look, so he couldn't help frowning slightly, the matter should have been planned by the third prince, but he was extremely calm, was he sure that he couldn't find physical evidence? In this case...... She couldn't help but look at the palace maid standing aside, and her eyes moved suddenly: "Father, can you let your son check it?" ”

"Huh? What do you see? Baili Qingcang looked up, just now he had already used his actions to hint that the shadow guard was going to investigate, and it would take some time to find out the results.

Shen Ninghua got up and walked to the place where Zhang Xun was originally sitting, looked at the remnants of the wine glass, and then looked at the palace maid standing on the side: "You come here." ”

The palace maid trembled, and her face became more and more pale: "Slave maid...... The slave maid has seen Princess Zhaohua. ”

The third prince's hand tightened suddenly, and his face was a little ugly.

Shen Ninghua looked at her coldly: "Pluck the hairpin off your head and I'll take a look." ”

"Slave maid...... The hairpin used by the slave and maid is a hosta issued uniformly in the palace, and there is nothing special. ”

Baili Junyi stood beside Shen Ninghua, for fear that the palace maid would bump into her: "If you want to take it, you will take it, where is there so much nonsense?" ”

The palace maid trembled and pulled out the hairpin, but instead of handing it to Shen Ninghua, she held it with her hand and stabbed it at Shen Ninghua: "You die!" ”

The third prince's eyelids jumped suddenly, this palace maid is crazy, when did he let her do this? Concubine Li was also shocked, this palace maid didn't come according to their plan! What's going on?

Baili Junyi reacted in time, hugged Shen Ninghua and dodged back, and then slammed and kicked the palace maid's arm. The hairpin flew out in response, fell to the ground and split in half, and a little liquid flowed out of the shattered place.

Baili Qingcang was shocked: "Come on, detain her!" ”

The guards escorted the palace maid up, and the imperial doctor stepped forward to check the hairpin on the ground: "Back to the emperor, the middle of this hairpin has been hollowed, and it is the crane top red that is in bloom." ”

Baili Qingcang was furious: "Okay, it's really a good method, I even came up with such a method." Bold, bold, bold, who instructed you to do this? ”

The palace maid raised her head and looked straight at Qi Guifei: "Qi Guifei Niangniang, the slave maid is Qingyu, save the slave maid!" ”

Baili Qingcang turned his head to look at Qi Guifei suddenly: "Qi Guifei, this palace maid is in your palace?" ”

Qi Guifei nodded: "Back to the emperor, this palace maid is indeed a concubine in the palace, named Qingyu, this time it was also called because of lack of manpower, but I didn't expect her to have such a bold mind, the concubine problem is not ashamed, please the emperor to investigate." ”
