Chapter 273: The Murderer Is Him
As soon as Gu Nanfeng heard that the poison in the cook's body was exactly the same as Qin Zhiyi's, his eyes immediately turned cold.
He stared at Qingyun and scolded, "People died right under your noses? Qingyun, when did you become such a waste? β
Qingyun knelt on the ground with a puff and said in a deep voice, "Subordinates should be damned." β
After a pause, he said, "However, the subordinates still have something to say." β
Gu Nanfeng looked at him and didn't say a word.
Qingyu said quickly: "The poison has long been on the cook's body." The imperial doctor checked that the time of his poisoning was probably about the same as the time of the queen's poisoning. The reason why he died so quickly was because the torture that had damaged his body for several days, so the toxins that could have been taken care of for a while were attacked earlier. The subordinates hadn't thought that he would also be poisoned, so they didn't take precautions, which made people die. β
Gu Nanfeng was silent for a moment, and then said coldly: "I poisoned people early...... The cook would never have imagined that he would die of this poison himself. Forget it, the other party is thoughtful and has been deployed early, no wonder you didn't expect it. β
Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief, and finally didn't have to be dismantled by His Majesty.
Gu Nanfeng let him get up and said in a deep voice: "Continue to investigate, we must find out the person behind the instigation." β
After speaking, he looked at Zhao Lingyi, who was kneeling below, frowned and said, "What's the matter with her?" β
Qingyun hurriedly said the words of the cook before he died, and said, "The cook only said that he was similar in shape, and he died before he finished speaking." So...... The subordinates didn't dare to jump to conclusions, so they brought the lady concubine here. β
Gu Nanfeng's face changed when he heard him say the first sentence, and his eyes looking at Zhao Lingyi were full of murderous intent.
Zhao Lingyi also understood at this moment, and she finally came back to her senses.
"Your Majesty, it's not like this, the concubine didn't poison the queen's mother, and the concubine definitely didn't." Zhao Lingyi panicked, knelt down and took a few steps forward, and said, "The concubine doesn't know why that person is talking nonsense, the concubine really doesn't know ......"
She looked at Gu Nanfeng and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, you have to believe in the concubine, the concubine will never dare to poison the queen." β
"If it's not you, who else?" Gu Nanfeng stared at Zhao Lingyi and said word by word: "You have long been dissatisfied with her, and you can't wait for her to die, right?" β
When the words fell, a slap was slapped on the table, and with a bang, the two people were scared, and their faces turned white.
Especially Zhao Lingyi, her body couldn't help but tremble.
"There are no concubines, there are no concubines......"
"You're jealous that she's robbing you of your queenship, that's why you're doing this?" Gu Nanfeng said coldly: "When you were in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing, you took Li Mao's old ministers to run to her and talked nonsense to force her away, but it didn't work, so you came up with such a poisonous plan and wanted her life?" β
"Concubines don't have ......"
"Zhao Lingyi, you were raised by your mother herself." Gu Nanfeng gritted his teeth and said word by word: "For the sake of my mother, I have always treated you well." Results...... Even if my mother is alive, I will pick your skin. β
"Someone!" Gu Nanfeng said coldly: "Drag her down to me and interrogate her strictly." If you can get the antidote, then give her a good death, if you can't get the antidote, you will be cut with a thousand cuts. β
Zhao Lingyi's pupils dilated instantly, and she said in disbelief: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty spares your life, the concubine does not, the concubine has absolutely no ......"
Gu Nanfeng: "Who else can you be?" β
Zhao Lingyi had already been dragged to the door, and she was extremely scared.
As long as she gets out of this door, she will never live again, and she will be cut by a thousand cuts.
At the last moment when she was pulled out of the door again, she suddenly grabbed the door frame and didn't let go, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, it's not a concubine, it's definitely not a concubine." But I know who it is, I know who it is! β
Gu Nanfeng paused and said in a deep voice: "Let go of her." β
As soon as the person who pulled her let go, Zhao Lingyi instantly fell to the ground.
Her fingers kept trembling, and she wanted to crawl and take two steps forward, but she found that she didn't have the slightest strength in her body.
She was almost dead.
Gu Nanfeng looked at her coldly: "You say you know who it is?" β
Zhao Lingyi swallowed her saliva and raised her head, revealing her pale face.
Her lips trembled twice, and then she trembled and said, "Yes, it's Mr. Liu." β
As soon as her words fell, the faces of the rest of the people changed instantly.
Qingyun turned his head to stare at her in disbelief, while Gu Nanfeng stood up directly from the chair and said sharply, "What nonsense are you talking about?" β
Mr. Liu in Zhao Lingyi's mouth is none other than Gu Nanfeng's teacher, Liu Yinghan.
Liu Yinghan is the master that the Emperor Taishang found for Gu Nanfeng, and he is his enlightenment teacher. Since then, all the way has been inseparable from Liu Yinghan's support.
Back then, he was not afraid of advanced age, and followed Gu Nanfeng from the capital to the north. Subsequently, he assisted Gu Nanfeng in the north and helped him settle things in the north.
After he ascended the throne, he sent someone to take Liu Yinghan back to the capital from Beilin.
Calculating the time, Liu Yinghan had just arrived in the capital not long ago.
Gu Nanfeng glared at Zhao Lingyi and said coldly: "The teacher has just arrived in the capital, and the poison in the queen started when she was in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing. At that time, the teacher was still in the north, how could he harm the queen? β
Zhao Lingyi immediately said: "People are in the north, but it doesn't mean that the queen's poison is from him." β
Gu Nanfeng: "Why do you say that?" β
"Mr. Liu has long wanted the queen's life, and I can't think of anyone else who can come up with such a meticulous way to harm people." Zhao Lingyi said in a trembling voice: "It must be him, he has always wanted the queen's life." β
Gu Nanfeng's face was full of disbelief, and his voice was the same as Zhao Lingyi's, and he also trembled a little: "You, you said that Liu Yinghan had already wanted the queen's life?" β
Zhao Lingyi looked up at Gu Nanfeng, with suspicion in her eyes: "Your Majesty doesn't know?" β
Gu Nanfeng's heart seemed to be held in his hands, and he couldn't breathe from the pain.
"What do I want to know?" Gu Nanfeng's eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the beads and roared, "What else should I know?" β
Zhao Lingyi was frightened, and immediately couldn't help but tremble and said: "Dang, the assassination in Beilin back then was instigated by Mr. Liu." β
Gu Nanfeng: "......"
Qingyun's body shook and almost fell directly to the ground.
He turned his head to look at Nanfeng, with horror on his face.
Gu Nanfeng's face was not much better than Qingyun.
He was silent for a long time before he said, "No way, the teacher won't do this." Back then, he also interceded for the queen, saying that when the big event was decided, he would let the queen live. Heβhow could he ......?"
Zhao Lingyi looked at Nanfeng's reaction and knew that he really didn't know.
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Lingyi said: "He pleaded for mercy back then because His Majesty didn't love Qin Zhiyi. Later, he was ruthless, but it was also because His Majesty loved Qin Zhiyi too much. β
