Chapter VIII

Xi Ze looked at the scene in front of him with a calm face, quickly turned his thoughts, and finally ordered Wei Zixiu to diagnose Li Zuiwu's pulse.

After a short time, he got Wei Zixiu's reply: "Back to the emperor, the little master of Concubine Xuan is indeed poisoned!" ”

Xi Ze looked at Fu Ningyan coldly, and his voice had the power of dripping water into ice: "Guifei, how do you explain?" ”

At this time, Fu Ningyan couldn't sit still anymore, she got up and knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine was wronged, the concubine never instructed Concubine Xuan to poison the little princess, let alone threaten Concubine Xuan with a snow kiss, all of this has nothing to do with the concubine, as for why Concubine Xuan was poisoned, the concubine really doesn't know!" ”

"I don't know?" Concubine Xuan screamed loudly, "You don't know? Could it be that the concubines themselves poisoned themselves? ”

Fu Ningyan looked at Li Zuiwu fiercely when she heard this, and said hatefully: "According to the palace, you are quite ruthless to yourself in order to frame the palace!" This palace has no grievances with you, why do you frame this palace like this? ”

"...... you" Li Zuiwu was about to faint, her eyes widened and she shouted, "How could the concubine poison herself?" The concubine is most afraid of death, how can she hurt her body? Guifei Niangniang, it wasn't this kind of rhetoric when you used the snow kiss to coerce the concubine to deal with the queen for you, but now that the matter is revealed, you say that the concubine herself poisoned herself, who will believe what you say? ! If you really didn't threaten the concubine, and the murder of the little princess was all planned by the concubine alone, why did the concubine poison herself? Pointing to you, what benefits can concubines get? ”

This series of questions made Fu Ningyan shocked and hated, but she couldn't answer a single question for a while!

Li Zuiwu unceremoniously pressed step by step: "Guifei Niangniang, you answered the concubine!" ”

Fu Ningyan trembled with anger, she removed her gaze from Li Zuiwu, looked at Xi Ze, and said very earnestly: "The emperor Mingjian, the concubine is really wronged, the matter of the little princess really has nothing to do with the concubine, and the concubine doesn't know why this concubine is so desperate to bite the concubine, but the concubine is really not her mastermind behind the scenes, please ask the emperor to judge!" ”

At this moment, Shen Luyi suddenly got up and said to Xi Ze: "Your Majesty, the concubine thinks that the poison on this concubine is under the concubine or herself, as long as you search the Fenghua Palace, won't it be clear?" Please also ask the emperor to send a decree! ”

Fu Ningyan was shocked and said loudly: "Your Majesty, don't ...... it."

"Is the concubine empty-hearted?" Fu Ningyan's words were only said a little bit before Mu Xuehan interrupted without yin or yang, "Concubine Jing just gave a Jianyi, the emperor hasn't issued an edict yet, the concubine is so nervous, it seems that this Concubine Xuan's words are still somewhat credible!" As she spoke, she turned her head to look at Xi Ze again and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you think?" ”

Xi Ze was silent for a few seconds, and said coldly: "Guifei, now that you are under suspicion, if you are really innocent, the search palace can wash away the suspicion for you, I don't know what the concubine is nervous about?" ”

Fu Ningyan forced herself to calmly replied: "Your Majesty, the concubine is the head of the concubines, and she has the power to assist in the six palaces, if you venture to search the palace, it will really damage the prestige of the concubines, and please ask the emperor to take care of it, the concubines are indeed innocent, please believe in the concubines!" ”

When Shen Luyi heard this, he burst into a sinister smile, and said unceremoniously: "The concubine is so hard to stop, but it is even more difficult to guess what shady things are hidden in the Fenghua Palace, if the concubine is bright and upright, naturally majestic and powerful, the more you block it, the more suspicious it is!" ”

As soon as her words fell, Mu Xuehan immediately said: "Concubine Niangniang, the queen is here, what power and prestige do you mention?" Your Fenghua Palace is a forbidden place in the palace, and even the emperor can't search for it? Is it that the whole harem will have to look at your face in the future? Who is this harem honored? Have you figured it out? ”

"You two ......" Fu Ningyan was forced into a corner by Shen Luyi and Mu Xuehan, her face was as white as rice paper, her head was full of sweat, she couldn't argue with Shen Luyi and Mu Xuehan, so she had to look at Xi Ze and begged sincerely: "The emperor Mingjian, the concubine is indeed wronged, today's matter has nothing to do with the concubine, the emperor ......"

"Guifei ......" The person who interrupted her this time was Wang Ningxuan, "Your Fenghua Palace, can this palace be searched?" ”

Her voice was full of majesty, cold without a trace of warmth.

Fu Ningyan gritted her teeth, still looking at Xi Ze: "Your Majesty ......"

Wang Ningxuan interrupted her again: "Fu Ningyan, this palace asks you, what does it mean that you don't answer?" Do you dare to despise this palace in public? ”

Wang Ningxuan, who has always been gentle, suddenly made a difficulty, and Fu Ningyan had to reply stubbornly: "The concubine doesn't dare!" Naturally, the mother found it! ”

After receiving this reply, Wang Ningxuan quickly looked at Xi Ze and said, "Your Majesty, for the sake of fairness, the concubine asks the emperor to order a search of Fenghua Palace, please ask the emperor for permission!" ”

Xi Ze stared at Fu Ningyan and said coldly: "I'm ready!" ”

With Xi Ze's will, Wang Ningxuan looked at Shen Luyi calmly and calmly, and ordered: "Concubine Jing, this errand will be handed over to you by the palace!" Shukui, you go with Concubine Jing! ”

Shen Luyi curled the corners of her lips, bent down and said, "Don't worry, the concubine will not be dishonored!" ”

She glanced at Fu Ningyan with deep meaning, and left the middle palace quietly.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Shen Luyi went for a full hour and a half.

Shen Luyi, who was belated, came to everyone with something very "rich" and reported to Xi Zeyu: "Your Majesty, the queen's mother, and the concubines have found the poison and antidote of snow kisses in Fenghua Palace!" As soon as her eyes turned, it flowed to Fu Ningyan's body, she was extremely proud, and smiled at Fu Ningyan with a deep smile, "Guifei Niangniang, you are really well hidden, this snow kiss poison was hidden by you in the secret compartment of a locked box with golden steps, and the antidote is hidden in the dark compartment at the bottom of your rouge box, if it weren't for the concubine to search carefully, it would be easy to be ignored, you are really well-intentioned!" Not only that, but the concubines also found other unbearable things, such as your letters with the ministers of the previous dynasty, and these filth! ”

After speaking, she presented all the things to Xi Ze, and said respectfully: "Please take a look at the emperor!" ”

Xi Ze took a look, and then he realized that the previous courtiers asked him to abolish the queen on the grounds that he had no heir, and Fu Ningyan planned it, and the "filth" in Shen Luyi's mouth was a piece of paper full of cursing Wang Ningxuan.

After reading it, Xi Ze couldn't help but be furious, he smashed things in front of Fu Ningyan, stood up and scolded: "Fu Shi, these things, you are the same, how can you explain them to me?!" ”
