Chapter 335: Killing People and Killing Mouths
Before night completely fell, Chu Mubai and others had already been ordered to enter the palace.
When Chu Mubai saw Yuehua, he naturally couldn't hide his excitement, but after a greeting, he didn't know what to say. After all, men can't have a short chatter like a woman, but they want to talk a few more words with Yuehua, and rubbing their hands is a little cramped.
However, Yuehua ignored Mo Guhan's approach, pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't Zijin enter the palace with you?" β
Chu Mubai snorted: "She still has official business." β
"What official duties can she have? It's all night. β
Yuehua admired Zijin's straightforwardness and straightforwardness, and deliberately matched her with Chu Mubai. It's not that she likes to mess with the mandarin duck score, she privately hopes that Chu Mubai can get out of the shadow of Xiangshen's death as soon as possible.
Chu Mubai didn't like Xiang Shen, but Xiang Shen died to protect himself and him, which made Chu Mubai feel very guilty, and felt that she shouldn't have rejected her so ruthlessly, which made her sad for so long.
Now, it has become a regret, Chu Mubai still often goes to Fenglin, visits his parents, and then talks to Chu Jiu Xiangshen.
Xiangshen is a hurdle in Chu Mubai's heart, and Chu Mubai is a knot in Yuehua's heart.
Especially every time she saw the green stubble on Chu Mubai's chin, which was slightly decadent, her heart was sad. She selfishly hoped that someone could be by Chu Mubai's side, take care of him instead of her, let him cheer up and relax, and let go of the burden of the past.
And Zijin obviously likes him, although he has never said it in front of himself, but at the beginning, regardless of her reputation, in front of everyone's eyes, she confessed that she was Chu Mubai's fiancΓ©e, Yuehua knew that she must have loved Chu Mubai miserably.
For Chu Mubai, Zijin took the initiative to give up the happy rivers and lakes, no longer go back to his hometown, and stay in the unaccompanied capital, what can he do for it? She said that she wanted to keep filial piety for the deputy general Qiu who entered the earth, but everyone knew it. Only with such a dare to love and hate temperament will she be vigorous and good to Chu Mubai, and she will not shy away from her intentions.
Chu Mubai has always been restrained and reserved in her relationship, so she thinks that the two are really a good match.
She discussed with Mo Guhan and gave Zijin a position in front of Chu Mubai, so that she could get the moon first near the water. Women's appointment, this is also a precedent to follow in the Chang'an Dynasty, and it is not absurd, so Chu Mubai can't refuse.
It's just that the two of them chased one and ran the other, and there was no result.
Yuehua was a little anxious, and asked with a questioning tone.
Chu Mubai hesitated again, not knowing how to explain.
"I'm used to being alone, and besides, I've been with Shao Xiang today and haven't returned home."
Yuehua hated to use a rope to tie the two of them together, and she was a little anxious, and she was a little scared at Chu Mubai. Chu Mubai was at a loss, lowered his head and obediently listened and laughed, without saying a word, occasionally smiling.
Mo Guhan on the side was a little unhappy: "Chu Mubai, did you summon you in today to make Queen I angry and anxious?" If you rush Yuehua out of a bad way, I will not spare it. β
Although Mo Guhan was a teacher to ask for the crime, he finally rescued Chu Mubai, accused Yuehua again and again, and hid behind Shao Ziqing.
Shao Ziqing smiled and teased: "This woman is a mother, if she really nags a little, otherwise how can she call her mother-in-law mother?" β
"I can empathize with that." Mo Guhan also added oil and vinegar.
Yuehua glared at the three of them dissatisfied, snorted lightly, and could only stomp her feet.
Immediately after, Han Yuchu also entered the palace, followed by Chang Lingxi, which made Yuehua really overjoyed, and he had already thrown the matter of Zijin out of the clouds.
Mo Guhan was bedridden for a few days, the government and politics were delayed a lot, and when he saw a slight improvement, he couldn't wait to find a few people to come over, sit down in front of the wine table, and talk about family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs. And Yuehua and Ling Xi exchanged heads, talking about how they felt after being pregnant, whispering, and their faces were full of excitement.
Ling Xi suddenly talked about Lian's, she said that after she was pregnant, she went back to Changle Hou's Mansion twice, Lian's eyes were a little confused, and when she saw her, she actually mistook her for Chang Lingyan, and dragged her hand and chattered endlessly.
Han Yuchu stood in front of him, frightened, lest the Lian clan suddenly make a difficulty, and it would be bad for Ling Xi and the fetus in his womb.
Who would have thought that the Lian family just kept talking about how the fifth aunt and Chang Lingluo treated her harshly, how they didn't take her seriously, and asked Ling Xi to call the shots for her.
Later, Chang Lehou came in with a sad face and told Ling Xi that the news of Chang Lingyan's death was deliberately leaked to the Lian family by the fifth aunt and Chang Lingluo, and the Lian family was seriously ill, tossed for two days, and was sluggish for two days, and after waking up, he was a little confused, and kept talking about Ling Yan and Ling Rui. But Chang Lingrui sometimes stood in front of her, and she didn't know it.
The two of them also sighed for a long time, originally they felt happy, and they both said that Lian was self-inflicted, but later they said that they felt that she was also desolate and a little pitiful now.
Just sighing and sighing, there were guards outside the door who swept like the wind, paused at the door of the hall, and said two words to Rong Xiang, who was guarding the door.
Rong Xiang was taken aback, turned around and entered the hall: "Emperor Qi, it is the guards who are guarding the imperial physician Shi Yunhai who came to report. β
Mo Guhan suddenly stood up with a "pout": "Xuan!" β
During the banquet, several people were inexplicable, and they all looked at each other.
The guards had already entered the palace gate, knelt on one knee, and replied: "Your Majesty, as you expected, someone tried to kill people and kill them, and they have been caught." β
"Good! Bring it on! β
The guards responded with a sonorous command and retreated.
Everyone was shocked: "Someone wants to kill people? β
Mo Guhan nodded: "I have been on guard in advance, and I ordered someone to guard carefully, if I really can't hold my breath, I can't wait to do it while I have a night banquet here." β
No wonder Mo Guhan recovered today, and he summoned everyone to the palace to discuss matters, which turned out to be intentionally maze. Shi Yunhai is forbidden to be tortured, and if the concubine Ling is weak-hearted, she will not allow him to live. This act is more than any conclusive evidence of guilt.
Actually, why bother? Yuehua sighed secretly, that Shi Yunhai had already taken on everything, I heard that he still had a wife and children in the capital, and his son was less than three years old, but if he was a man, he would not confess easily. Gritting his teeth, the Shen family may still treat his widow well, why should Concubine Ling take the risk of killing people and destroying her mouth?
Just as he was surprised, two guards escorted a eunuch-like person in, and as soon as they entered the door, they used their strength to slam the man to the ground.
"Your Majesty, it's him, who secretly released poisonous spiders into Shi Yunhai's prison, and was caught by us."
Poison spiders? What a masterful means. It is common for poisonous insects to infest in the cell, and if Shi Yunhai is poisoned and dies, he will not leave any handle.
Mo Guhan snorted coldly: "Raise his head." β
The two guards pulled aside one by one, grabbed the hair, and lifted the face of the kneeling man on the ground.
The eyebrows and eyes looked unfamiliar, not like they were in the palace of Concubine Lingjiao.
"Which temple?"
"Emperor Qi, his identity has been ascertained, and he is the eunuch in charge of punishment in the Shenxing Division. Today, he took advantage of the time to distribute prison food, sneakily approached the cell where Shi Yunhai was being held, and then took out a bamboo tube from his sleeve, and wanted to do wrong, and was caught by us on the spot, and the bamboo tube contained six or seven poisonous spiders. β
Mo Guhan nodded with satisfaction: "Say, who instructed you?" β
The eunuch was still lucky, stumbling and arguing: "No, no one, it's just a coincidence." β
"Coincidentally?" Mo Gu snorted coldly: "Pour those poisonous insects into his mouth." β
His words were terrible, involuntarily horrified, but the cold tone was even more terrifying.
Before the guards could make a move, the little eunuch's face was instantly like earth: "The emperor spares his life, the emperor spares his life." β
"If you want to spare your life, it's natural and simple, and you can confess honestly. You are a man of prudence, and you know better than anyone how many punishments in the palace are life-threatening. Instead of suffering and confessing, it is better to know the current affairs. β
The little eunuch was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he suddenly became paralyzed, and he no longer dared to speak hard: "The emperor spares his life, and the little one confesses, and he doesn't dare to hide it." β
The guards behind him made a force: "Tell me honestly!" β
The eunuch trembled and explained: "It was the palace maid Hancui in front of Concubine Ling, who found the villain today, gave the villain two ingots of gold, and told the little one to put a few poisonous spiders in this bamboo tube into Shi Yunhai's cell while others were not paying attention." The villain is greedy for money for a while, so he responds with a clear conscience. β
"Concubine Ling?" Mo Guhan snorted coldly, which was already expected.
"What else?"
"No, the little ones have all confessed."
Before Mo Guhan could speak, another person broke in in a panic, and as soon as he entered the door, he fell to the ground, not knowing whether he had tripped or his legs were weak, and he didn't dare to raise his head, and he shivered at Mo Gu and replied: "Emperor Qiqi...... Your Majesty, Shi Yunhai committed suicide! β
"What!" Mo Guhan was startled, and his whole body suddenly burst out with a fierce momentum: "Don't you all let you all take strict care?" Why is this useless? β
The guard was reprimanded by Mo Guhan, and he was so shocked that the six gods had no master, and he couldn't justify a word.
"Before he was detained, he must have been searched, how can he still commit suicide?"
"He, he tore his clothes, tied them to the fence locks, and then curled up his body and hung it, and in an instant he broke his shin and died."
"There are so many of you guarding that no one notices? What do I want you to do? β
The guards trembled like chaff, and they didn't dare to defend: "The emperor spares his life, spares his life." When the perpetrator was caught, the minions were slack for a while, busy verifying his identity, but they didn't expect Shi Yunhai to wake up and commit suicide. β
"Idiot!" Mo Guhan couldn't help but be furious. He originally thought that he had caught Shi Yunhai and grabbed Concubine Ling's handle, and he could finally get out of the way, but he didn't expect that he still had a bad move.
