Chapter 271: Confession
Satsuki sat on the chair, the whip in her hand swaying for a while.
The man who was hanging upside down spoke in a soft voice, intermittently.
"Someone, someone gave me a lot of money, so much I can't spend in my life, let me poison the queen's mother......"
As soon as his words came out, Satsuki clenched the long whip in his hand. If it weren't for the truth in the mouth of this fat man, Xiao Yue would have been unable to help but make this fat man into flower fertilizer.
"I'm afraid of being discovered, and I don't do it too obviously, so I only dare to do it a little bit at a time, so that the queen's symptoms are not obvious, even if I am uncomfortable, I will feel that it is not other problems and I can't think of poisoning...... And just like that, no one has ever found out......"
He is in charge of the queen's diet, and everything the queen eats in her mouth every day comes from him.
He originally thought that he would take the money and leave the palace in a few more days, before anyone found out.
But he didn't expect to be discovered so early.
Xiao Yue looked at him coldly and said in a deep voice, "When did it start?" ”
The fat man fell silent, and his breath became a little heavy.
Xiao Yue was not patient, and shook the whip in his hand: "Do you need me to help you remember again?" ”
"No, no need to ......" The fat man's voice trembled, and he was beaten out by Xiao Yue, and said with difficulty: "In, when I was in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing." ”
Satsuki: "......"
A camp on the outskirts of Beijing?
At that time, Gu Nanfeng had not yet become the emperor.
At that time, Gu Nanfeng was afraid that Qin Zhiyi would not be used to eating the food of the rough old men in the barracks, so he specially found a cook to make food for Qin Zhiyi. At that time, Satsuki praised the fool for finally doing one thing right, and now ...... Satsuki can't wait to give herself two slaps.
She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth and said, "What about poison? What kind of poison did you give her? ”
The fat man shuddered: "No, I don't know......"
Xiao Yue stood up all of a sudden, and rushed up with a whip: "Do you dare to know?" ”
"Ahh The man screamed and broke down, "I really don't know...... They gave me the medicine, I really don't know what the medicine is, I'm just a cook! ”
"Cook? The cook is not good at cooking, but he actually learns to poison others? Xiao Yue was furious: "You are also worthy of being called a cook?" ”
"I was wrong, I was really wrong...... Grandma Hu, I am also instructed by others, please spare my life. If I die, my family will be finished......"
The fat man was hung upside down, crying snot and tears streaming down his face, and he looked extremely disgusting.
Satsuki resisted the urge to kill and asked, "What about the antidote?" ”
"I, I don't know, I don't even know what poison is, how can I know the antidote?"
The irritability in Satsuki's heart has risen to the next level.
She said slowly: "You always know the person who gave you the poison, right?" ”
The fat man was silent for a long time, and then shook his head with extreme difficulty: "She covers her face every time she comes, and I ......"
Satsuki didn't say anything, silently raising the whip in her hand.
"Ahhhh The fat boy shouted hard before the whip fell.
Xiao Yue paused, and said coldly: "Say." ”
"Well, that's a woman!" The fat man trembled and said, "She is very slender, and there are calluses on the tiger's mouth...... By the way, she accidentally exposed her left wrist once, and I saw a mole on my left wrist. ”
Xiao Yue had a cold face: "Is there anything else you haven't explained?" ”
You fat man is about to collapse: "I told you everything I knew, I didn't dare to hide a word, I really don't know anything......"
Xiao Yue had a cold face, threw the whip in her hand, turned her head and shouted, "Qingyun." ”
Qingyun walked in from outside: "Grandma, what do you command?" ”
Xiao Yue said in a deep voice: "Bring all the palace maids in the palace to the dungeon and let her identify them." ”
Qingyun: "What? All the palace maids? ”
There are three thousand beauties in the harem, there are no real three thousand, but the distance is not far behind. All? When does this have to be recognized?
Xiao Yue looked at him coldly: "Afraid of trouble? Okay, I'll go to your Emperor and ask him if he's troublesome. ”
"Don't don't," Qingyun immediately stopped in front of Xiao Yue and said, "Don't bother, I'll arrange it, and I'll definitely satisfy your aunt and grandmother." ”
Xiao Yue snorted coldly, raised her feet and walked out, and threw down a sentence: "Remind you, focus on checking the people in the palace of the two mothers." ”
Qingyun thought silently: There is no need to remind this.
In Qingyun's opinion, the biggest suspect is the two mothers.
As soon as Xiao Yue left, Qingyun asked the cook to be put down, and casually ordered: "Watch him well, don't let him die." ”
After that, he took people out, planning to go to the palace of the two mothers.
Since the queen was poisoned, the palace of the two mothers has been sealed, and they are not allowed to enter or leave. Only people have people deliver meals on time every day.
On the other side, Xiao Yue came out of the dungeon and bumped into Wu Zhuo who came out of the next dynasty.
Wu Zhuo looked at the blood stains on the hem of her skirt and couldn't help frowning: "You did it?" ”
Satsuki glanced at him and mumbled sullenly.
Wu Zhuo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and his tone became a little hard: "What kind of great suspect actually wants you to do it yourself?" ”
Xiao Yue glanced at him and felt that this person was talking a little weird, but she still said, "It's very important." ”
When Wu Zhuo heard this, the look on his face became even more ugly: "How important?" Is it as important as I was back then? ”
Satsuki: "...... What do you mean by that? ”
Wu Zhuo: "......"
The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, and Satsuki was the first to retract his gaze.
She had something on her mind, and she didn't have much patience, so she didn't want to deal with Wu Zhuo, who had nothing to do, so she turned around and left in silence.
Xiao Yue had just walked a few steps, and Wu Zhuo behind him suddenly shouted: "My things, when will you return them to me?" ”
Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment, and then said in a muffled voice: "The thing is in Niangniang's, you have to go by yourself." ”
Wu Zhuo pursed his lips, but still couldn't help asking, "Then, will you also send a copy to the person you just interrogated?" ”
When Xiao Yue heard this, she turned her head and glared at Wu Zhuo: "Are you sick?" ”
Isn't she a delicacy and sends something to someone who poisons her master? She couldn't wait to dismantle him into flower fertilizer.
Xiao Yue was angry when Wu Zhuo asked a word, so she didn't bother to pay attention to him, turned around and walked back quickly.
Wu Zhuo looked at her angry back, and stood in place for a moment before slowly leaving.
He remembered Qin Zhiyi's previous words, if he wanted to get things back, he would prepare money to redeem them, along with people and things.
He didn't dare to think before, even if Qingyun said it so clearly, he didn't dare.
But now watching Satsuki come out of the dungeon with blood stained on her skirt, thinking that she might also give someone else something like that...... Wu Zhuo couldn't sit still, and the things he didn't dare to think about now appeared in his mind over and over again.
