Chapter 015: The Jedi Strikes Back
readx;? The hall was still silent, and everyone was waiting for the two aunts above the hall to speak. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Even Aunt Qing bowed her head in the direction of Aunt Jinxiu, as if waiting for Aunt Jinxiu's ruling:
"Aunt Jinxiu, in your opinion, this matter ......"
The woman, who had been sitting without speaking, smiled slowly.
She looked at the two palace maids kneeling on the ground below, their waists straight, and there was a certain desperate determination in their eyes.
"Tian'er's loss of voice needs to be investigated, but the assessment must continue. Put away the answers of these palace maids, and try them later, and then send someone to move these tables and let the two palace maids come forward to speak, I would like to hear what they ask us to do. ”
Aunt Jinxiu gave an order, and the hall began to get busy, and the two grandmothers of Dongyuan and Nanyuan began to collect the answers of those palace maids, whether they had read it or not, they were all collected in one place.
And Mama Hu of Xiyuan stood there, motionless, after all, on the day of the assessment, such a big thing happened in front of Aunt Jinxiu, involving several palace maids in Xiyuan, and it was also her fault for improper discipline.
Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan were brought to the front of the hall and knelt under the high platform, and the majesty of the Youlan Hall seemed to be a little closer to them.
The two held hands and looked at each other, seeing encouragement in each other's eyes.
Xiangqin no longer fuels the flames as before, but hides in the crowd, watching the development of events.
She knows the truth of the tree, and now the evidence is conclusive, and Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan have fallen into a dead end, if she speaks again, it will inevitably make people suspect that she did all this.
"The guards found poisonous tea sets in your house, and Tian'er couldn't speak because she drank the tea in your house, the evidence is conclusive, what else do you have to say?" asked Aunt Qing condescendingly.
"Aunt Huiqing's words, these poisonous teacups are exactly where the flaws in the matter lie. Yun Yao saw Aunt Qing asking, so she raised her head and took the lead in speaking.
"What do you mean by that?" Aunt Jinxiu was curious.
"I just heard from the guards who searched that it was these teacups that were poisonous, just imagine, if we really want to poison Tian'er, we only need to poison the tea she drinks, why do we need to apply poison to all five cups? Isn't it redundant?" Yun Yao replied.
"Yes, everyone knows Yun Yao's skills, if we really have the heart to target Tian'er, we will definitely do it without knowing it, let alone leaving these evidence waiting to be discovered. With such a big flaw, isn't it because someone is framing him behind his back?" Lu Yingquan also spoke.
That sounds like a lot of truth. Aunt Jinxiu's eyes flashed with a fine light, and she said faintly.
She knew that these two girls would not disappoint her, they were young, but they could be in danger on such an occasion, think deeply, and even find flaws in the matter to justify themselves.
Seeing Aunt Jinxiu's slightly approving look, Xiangqin was anxious.
These days, Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan guard her like a thief, so that she can't get close at all, seeing that it is the assessment period, she finally thought of this method, but she doesn't want to be cracked by Yun Yao so easily.
Thinking of this, Xiangqin stepped forward and said:
"Aunt Yu Jinxiu, maybe Yun Yao and Lu Yingquan deliberately left a flaw because they thought of this, and did the opposite to exonerate themselves?"
"There seems to be some truth in your words, but it is difficult for me to judge which is right and which is wrong. Aunt Jinxiu looked at Xiangqin, who suddenly spoke, and seemed to be a little embarrassed.
Lu Yingquan suddenly heard Xiangqin's voice, and a clear flow suddenly flowed in her mind, the frame-up that came out of nothing a few days ago kept flashing in her mind, she seemed to understand something, and she had a bolder idea in her heart.
"Aunt Qiyu Jinxiu, I think...... Tian'er's loss of voice is not a simple blame. ”
"Yingquan!" Yun Yao heard Yingquan's words, and suddenly spoke in fear, as if to stop her from going on.
She knew what Lu Yingquan was going to say, which she had already thought of before Xiangqin could speak, but if this matter was exposed, the subsequent implication would definitely become more and more extensive.
"Let her say!" Aunt Jinxiu was completely interested, "You can tell me, what is not simple." ”
"The five teacups are all poisonous, which means that the first people the murderer wants to kill are actually me and Yun Yao! She didn't know which cup we would use to drink water, so she simply smeared all the teacups with poison, so that no matter which cup we used, we couldn't escape the fate of being poisoned and dumb. Lu Yingquan said, "It's a pity that Yun Yao and I have God's mercy and escaped, but we pity Tian'er......"
"Aunt Jinxiu, I ask for Tian'er's pulse. After Yun Yao finished speaking, she knew that there was no turning back from this matter, so she took the initiative to speak.
Poisoning the teacups was originally a foolproof solution, if they drank the tea from those cups, then the two of them were the two of them who were poisoned, and if someone else drank the tea, it was just a trick to set up a blame and make them irrefutable.
In the entire West Garden, the only person who has an indissoluble enmity with them is Xiangqin. Now that Lu Yingquan has broken this matter, she will simply gamble, if she wins...... You can avoid guarding against the incense every day and being afraid.
"That's right. Aunt Jinxiu nodded in agreement.
Soon, someone brought Yun Yao to Tian'er and asked her to take Tian'er's pulse.
After a while, Yun Yao's diagnosis came to fruition, she took her hand away from Tian'er's wrist, and then said to the two aunts:
Tian'er suddenly lost her voice because she accidentally ate the juice of a plant, which is called Wan Nianqing, and its flowers and leaves contain a large amount of oxalic acid and aspartin, which can cause swelling and pain in the throat, esophagus and stomach after ingestion, making people dumb. ”
"Where is there Wan Nianqing in Chuxiu Palace?" Aunt Jinxiu heard this, and turned her head to look at Qing Ning.
"Back to Aunt Jinxiu, there is no such thing in Chuxiu Palace. Aunt Qing bowed down and replied, "The slave maid will let people go to the Internal Affairs Office to check where the place in the palace is located." ”
"Evergreen likes to grow in damp places or grasslands under the forest, prefers semi-shady, humid environments, and avoids direct sunlight. Yun Yao spoke again, "In the entire Ning Palace, the place that meets these conditions is only the Yeting Palace. Yeting Palace is the residence of the third-class palace maid, located in a remote and cold and damp place, which is most suitable for longevity. ”
"It's really strange now, in this way, except for the two of you, everyone else is suspicious, because they all came out of the Yeting Palace. Aunt Jinxiu said, "Yun Yao, what evidence do you have to prove your innocence?"
"Yes. Hearing this, Yun Yao took a deep breath, and then slowly spoke, "It is recorded in the "Excerpts of Plants and Trees" that the place where Wan Nianqing grows the most and is used most frequently is the southwest county of Ning Kingdom. And among all the palace maids in Chuxiu Palace, there happens to be one person from Southwest County, presumably her use for Wan Nianqing...... Very well understood"
When Yun Yao said this, her eyes fell on Xiangqin's body, which was so calm and waveless, but it made Xiangqin shudder.
