Chapter 57: Report the three crimes of Concubine Xian
The golden dragon pattern on a black robe was particularly conspicuous, full of majesty leaking, accompanied by a dignified majesty, slowly coming, bringing a full house of slaughter.
"My emperor has arrived!" With a long shout behind Gonggong Ming, the twelve little eunuchs with him knelt on the ground, Qing Xihuan raised his head in panic, and bumped into Dong Chuchen behind He Hui, who was covered with frost, staring at Concubine Xian.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live. Everyone in the hall knelt on the ground, and Qing Xihuan looked at the ground without looking up.
"Your Majesty ......" Concubine Xian was stupid, she didn't expect Hehui to come at this moment, and she knelt on the ground with a nervous and ugly expression.
"Long live Your Majesty......"
Syllable.
A loud slap accompanied by a crisp fall on Concubine Xian's face, Concubine Xian raised her eyes in fright, and another loud slap fell on Concubine Xian's face.
"Your Majesty......" Concubine Xian covered her face and didn't dare to refute, only a pair of big bright eyes full of tears and doubts.
He Hui didn't explain the reason for the two slaps, looked around the lobby, pointed at Shu Zhaoyi, who was kneeling on the ground and didn't speak, and shouted angrily, "If you don't take care of the princess well, you will be fined for a month!"
Shu Zhaoyi bowed to the order, but did not speak.
He Hui said, walked in front of Qing Xihuan, and prepared to help Qing Xihuan.
Seeing this, Dong Chuchen stepped forward, helped Qing Xihuan up, raised his warm hand and touched Qing Xihuan's cheek, his eyes full of distress.
Qing Xihuan wanted to push Dong Chuchen away, but He Hui was in the hall, so he had to follow Dong Chuchen's outstretched hand and get up.
Except for Concubine Xian, everyone else got up. He Hui threw up his sleeves and sat on the chair in the hall, looking at everyone, and the anger in his eyes did not dissipate at all.
Seeing that He Hui's trip was aimed at herself, Concubine Xian crawled and cried to He Hui's feet, and said with a frightened face, "Your Majesty, Taochun is dead!"
"A maid!" He Hui paused, waved the sleeve of his hand, and said, "Death is death! Why are you making things difficult for my child!"
"Your Majesty's child......" Concubine Xian looked at Qing Xihuan in confusion, Qing Xihuan was not angry or happy, she lowered her head and looked at the ground, Dong Chuchen took a step forward, held Qing Xihuan's hand, and gently blocked Qing Xihuan behind her, and looked at Concubine Xian with sharp eyes.
"Yes, Xi Huan, the daughter of the Qing general, Chen'er's fiancée, is also my child!" He Hui was afraid that Concubine Xian didn't hear clearly, so he deliberately raised his voice, and his anger increased sharply.
"Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know, the concubine doesn't know that she is the prince's fiancée, the concubine doesn't know!" Concubine Xian bowed, looked up at He Hui slightly, and hurriedly said with tears and fear, "The concubine is frightened......"
He Hui sighed heavily, stretched out his hand and pointed at Concubine Xian angrily, full of anger pressed on his chest, his voice lowered but his anger did not decrease.
"Anyway, from now on, let's go to the cold palace to calm down. After that, he looked at Qing Xihuan.
Qing Xihuan only hung his head and said nothing.
Concubine Xian was shocked, and in an instant, she cried and cried with great sadness, "Your Majesty, the concubine is wronged, and the concubine has something to do!"
He Hui frowned tightly, seeing that the imperial physician's guards were all there, and seeing that the maid on the ground was terrible, Concubine Xian's face was full of horror, her head was suddenly windy, she couldn't hold back the pain in her head, and pointed at the imperial doctor, "You say." ”
Imperial Physician Wei was ordered to kneel on the ground, kowtow tremblingly, and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." The minister was invited to Huamu Courtyard by Concubine Xian Niangniang today, and saw that there was a maid dead on the ground, bleeding from the mouth and nose, which was caused by poisonous hair, so the silver needle was tested for poison, and it was really poisonous. ”
Hearing this, Hehui's face was pale, his eyes were cold, he looked at the main hall for a while, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Go on." ”
"It's her! Your Majesty! It's her Shuzhaoyi who wants to kill the concubine! The concubine wants to come to Huamu Courtyard to have a small gathering with Shuzhaoyi to taste tea today, but Shuzhaoyi has been reluctant to push back and block, and then she has no choice but to make this tea for the concubine, after brewing, the concubine smells tired, so she gives it to Taochun, Taochun drank it and died of poison in less than a moment, bleeding from the seven orifices, Your Majesty, imagine what this tea is like if the concubine drinks it!"
Concubine Xian didn't wait for Imperial Doctor Wei to speak again, and cried first.
Imperial Physician Wei had no choice but to bow to the ground and said slightly, "Yes." ”
He Hui looked at Shu Zhaoyi, who had been silent standing on the side, looked at it for a while, closed his eyes and sighed, "Check it for me, there are not many people in Huamu Courtyard, check them one by one, and see which person poisoned Concubine Xian and framed the master." When the next people find out, I will divide her five horses. ”
Shu Zhaoyi was silent, knowing in her heart that He Hui didn't really believe in her, but just to leave the dignity of herself and He Hui in front of Qing Xihuan.
Seeing that He Hui did not question Shu Zhaoyi, Concubine Xian opened her eyes wide, pointed at Shu Zhaoyi angrily, and looked back at He Hui. Crying voice: "It's her! Your Majesty, the tea was brewed by her and the princess, the concubine and the princess only had to meet today, there is no injustice and no hatred, the princess will not do anything wrong, and the concubine and Shu Zhaoyi have not been on good terms for a long time, it must be Shu Zhaoyi who poisoned the concubine! Your Majesty wants to be the master of the concubine!"
Concubine Xian's eyes were eager to break Shu Zhaoyi's corpse into pieces, and she gritted her teeth with hatred. Shu Zhaoyi had no anger, just waited, in stark contrast to Concubine Xian.
Just when He Hui didn't know how to solve this matter, he saw Qing Xihuan coming forward from behind Dong Chuchen and kneeling at He Hui's feet.
Dong Chuchen didn't know what Qing Xihuan meant, and it was too late to stop him, so he had to listen to Qing Xihuan's speech quietly.
"Your Majesty, there are a few things that the little girl is missing, and I want to ask Concubine Xian Niangniang to answer, I don't know if it's okay. ”
He Hui waved his hand, "Quasi." ”
Qing Xihuan stood up and looked at the concubine who was in full swing.
"Concubine Xian, the little girl still wants to ask, did Taochun really not eat any food by mistake before her death?" Qing Xihuan's tone was quite questioning, making Concubine Xian feel disgusted, but she didn't dare to be angry on her face.
"The princess can not believe in this palace, but Shu'er can testify, and Imperial Doctor Wei can also testify! If Imperial Doctor Wei is not credible, she can also summon several other imperial doctors to testify together. Concubine Xian raised her head and was full of confidence.
Shu Zhaoyi listened to the side, and suddenly showed a very imperceptible smile.
Xie Niangniang answered questions. Qing Xihuan bowed, and then looked at Shu'er behind Concubine Xian.
Shu'er knelt on the ground with interest, and repeated the previous words again, "Meet the princess, Shu'er remembers, the palace people are not allowed to eat privately, this is the rule, Taochun has been by the slave's side, the slave and the maid will not be mistaken, if the princess does not believe it, you can call the imperial doctor to perform an autopsy, and you will know it after an examination." ”
After Shu'er's words were finished, Qing Xihuan bowed his head slightly and walked to Imperial Doctor Wei's side again.
"Doctor Wei, can you be sure of Shu'er's words. ”
"Yes, see the princess, who has been practicing medicine in the palace for many years, you can be sure. Doctor Wei arched his hand.
"Is there a situation where there are two kinds of food that will be forbidden when eaten together, or is there any poison that was eaten the night before and poisoned today?" Qing Xihuan asked solemnly.
"Chen has practiced medicine for many years, and has exchanged countless experiences with famous doctors and magicians, and there is no case of poison that can occur after a few hours, and it can be so poisonous. Moreover, judging from the bleeding from the mouth and nose of the deceased, it was the red and poisonous hair of the crane and died. The minister is sure. Doctor Wei said seriously.
"Imperial Physician Xie. Qing Xihuan bent down, turned around and passed by Concubine Xian, and bowed at the feet of He Hui.
"Long live my emperor, the little girl reported, Concubine Xian killed the maid Taochun, secretly hid the highly poisonous crane Dinghong, framed Shu Zhaoyi, the three major crimes!"
