I slowly raised my head and looked at the handsome, cold face.

The pain never stopped for a moment, the heat almost spread to my heart, I knelt on the ground and couldn't move at all, my whole body kept spasming and trembling.

My heart tightened when I thought of the torture I had endured in the prison for the past three days, but when he said this, he didn't even raise an eyebrow, as if it didn't matter at all.

Why wasn't he worried about his life?

However, maybe this is the prince of the heavenly family, even if I really die in the prison and die under the torture of Pei Yuanchen, he won't look at me more, how can he care, a small, palace maid who is more despicable than ants?

Hehe......

I couldn't help but laugh, and as I laughed, cold sweat poured out of my forehead frantically, and my whole body was chilled, so cold that I almost couldn't stand it.

As if sensing something, Pei Yuanhao glanced at me, I turned my head lightly, avoiding his gaze, and he grinded his teeth.

"You two, shouldn't you be here?!" At this time, the emperor, who had been silent, finally spoke, his face was gloomy, and he pointed at Pei Yuanchen and said: "I asked you to supervise this case, so that you can help your third brother find out the truth, not to let you say cool things!" ”

"The son is guilty."

The emperor coughed twice, and then said to Pei Yuanhao: "You have been investigating for a long time, did you find out these ugly things that are jealous?" ”

Pei Yuanhao hurriedly said: "Father, the son also found another clue. ”

"Oh? What clues? ”

"Erchen checked the records of the imperial dining room that day and the list of people entering and leaving Shangyang Palace, and there was nothing abnormal, so Erchen went to the Tai Hospital. The imperial physician found that the poison in Yingxue was very toxic, and the refining method was also very complicated, but when the imperial physician was preparing the detoxification pill, he found that there was a unique medicinal material in the poison, called the marrow washing flower. ”

"Washing the marrow?"

"This flower is very magical, it is only poisonous when the flower blooms, from flowering to wilting, it only takes a moment before and after, and the toxicity will disappear immediately. Therefore, the person who makes the poison must pick the flowers, refine them, and put them into medicine during this time, otherwise it will be completely ineffective. ”

"There is such a miraculous medicinal herb?" The emperor's thick eyebrows furrowed, and he said, "Then the clue you said is-"

"Erchen found out that this kind of flower only grows in the south, and it is not circulated in the market, and the elixir refined is only traded on the black market."

South!

As soon as these two words came out, the emperor's face immediately changed drastically, and the entire hall of the criminal department immediately fell silent.

Although after decades of assimilation, the Central Plains still failed to include all the Central Plains, especially many famous people in the south of the Yangtze River, who still call the court the Northern Dynasty, even if they are subject to the Son of Heaven, they have always refused to belong spiritually.

Therefore, the word "south" is not just a regional title for the people of the Celestial Empire.

It contains the people there, the spirit there, and the confrontation between swords and swords!

Empress Yin glanced at Pei Yuanhao, the corners of her mouth provoked a smile, and said leisurely: "This time it can be thousands of miles away." What does the third prince mean is that the person who wants to poison the queen is from the south? ”

"It doesn't matter if the person is from the South or not, the clue is in the South."

The emperor glanced at Pei Yuanhao and said leisurely: "Yuanhao, how should this case be investigated, and what arrangements do you have?" ”
