Chapter 160: Accountability
This kid is so ...... It's ugly.
His face was dark, his eyes were closed, and he was covered in blood. Not only is it shocking, it's disgusting.
"This ...... This is my child? Emperor Zhao trembled and took the child from An Nenglu's hand, and the temperature from his arms warmed his cold little body.
An Nenglu also had red eyes, and replied crying: "Yes, Your Majesty." β
Emperor Zhao didn't want to look at him, so he carried the child to Ning Yinde. He asked again, "Imperial Physician Ning, is this my child?" β
Ning Yinde didn't dare to look directly into Emperor Zhao's eyes, he lowered his head and nodded. "Well, yes."
"Heyβ" Emperor Zhao sighed, shook his head, and handed the child to An Nenglu. "Let's bury it."
"Grandpa Hai!"
Tonight's Gonggong Hai has already cheered up twelve points of spirit, and is ready to be sent at any time.
"Your Majesty, the minions are here!"
Emperor Zhao roared angrily, "Why don't you still drive Kunning Palace?" β
Haigong Khan was frightened, "Drive Kunning Palace." β
Kunning Palace.
Queen Wu Yashi frowned.
Concubine Xiao was like a sparrow in a tree, chirping non-stop.
"Queen Mother, we succeeded, why are you unhappy? Concubine Wan Guifei is certain to die this time, and the child in her belly will not be born. Hahaha, cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, it's very happy. β
She drank sweet soup while eating the freshly steamed jujube cake from the imperial dining room.
In order to come to Kunning Palace as soon as possible to deliver rose cakes, she got up early in the morning and didn't even have time to eat breakfast. Seeing that the queen has returned to the palace, she can also eat with peace of mind.
Compared with the queen's anxiety and uneasiness, Concubine Xiao was much more relaxed. Don't do it if you're afraid, don't be afraid if you do. Always looking ahead and looking backwards, what great things can be accomplished with timidity.
"Oh, my dear queen, don't bother yourself. Come, let's eat jujube cake together. β
Empress Wu Yashi pushed away Concubine Xiao's chopsticks and rolled her eyes a few times. "You can still eat something that has no heart and lungs."
Concubine Xiao pursed her lips, "Why can't you eat it, do I have to cry if I become Wan Huilan's slut?" β
Wu Yashi: "Do you know that because of your rose cake, Concubine Shu has been poisoned and died in Changyin Pavilion." β
"What? Concubine Shu ...... "Concubine Xiao realized the seriousness of the problem, but she couldn't figure out why Concubine Shu was poisoned." "No, that plate of rose crisp is obviously for Concubine Wan to eat, how could Concubine Shu eat it?"
Empress Wu Yashi sneered, "Heh, could it be that you are asking about the palace now?" β
Concubine Xiao shook her head boredly, "Queen Mother, I didn't mean that......"
"It's the slave who did it." Su Xin knelt down as she spoke. "Concubine Xiao, it was the slave who divided the rose cake you brought into two plates, and served them to Concubine Shu, Concubine Wan and the Queen Mother respectively."
As soon as she heard this, Concubine Xiao's face immediately changed.
She yelled at Su Xin, "Who made you do this? Do you know that you killed that greedy fat lady by doing this! β
Although he was shouting about the fat lady, he felt very guilty in his heart. In fact, Concubine Shu is really not so annoying, and she is not in the way of anyone in the palace. So when I suddenly heard the news of her death, I felt some indescribable reluctance and deep self-blame.
"Concubine Xiao, do a full set of dramas, this sentence has always been said by you." Su Xin's eyes were only indifferent, and in the face of Concubine Shu's death, she didn't think that she had done something wrong. "Please think about it, if the slave only puts the poisonous part in front of Wan Guifei, doesn't that mean that someone wants to put Wan Guifei to death?"
Concubine Xiao shook her head angrily, "What the hell logic, isn't it the same now?" It's still clear that Wan Guifei is going to be put to death. β
"yes, yes." Empress Wu Yashi also nodded frequently, "And now she has relied on the palace to push her palm, making something out of nothing, pointing all the fingers at the palace." β
"What? Queen Mother, you still pushed Wan Guifei? The soap cake on the chopsticks fell to the ground, rolled a few times, and became dusty.
Wu Yashi was almost angry with this concubine, and she yelled, "Don't you understand the words? This palace has said that it is made out of nothing, and it is made out of nothing! β
"The queen mother is not in a hurry, Su Xin thinks that these are nothing. As long as we can find out the murderer behind the poisoning of Concubine Wan and Concubine Shu, your suspicion will naturally be lifted. β
The queen pointed at Concubine Xiao, "Well, she is the murderer behind the scenes." β
Concubine Xiao was stunned on the spot, and her face turned pale. "Queen, you don't plan to give me out, do you? We're in the same boat. β
"Concubine Xiao is not in a hurry, the queen will naturally not sell you." At this time, Su Xin seemed unusually calm and composed.
Queen Wu Yashi actually saw a trace of extremely discordant ambition in her eyes, what was this girl thinking in her heart? Could it be that I have misjudged her for so many years?
Su Xin said slowly: "Didn't Concubine Shuniang just happen to be poisoned and died?" This proves that the queen is not the murderer behind the scenes. Just imagine, how could the queen take such a big risk to poison the concubine? β
"What?" Concubine Xiao pondered, "You mean to lead the whole thing to the fact that someone wanted to murder Concubine Shu and accidentally injured Concubine Wan?" β
But soon she felt that she couldn't explain it, "No, no. It simply doesn't work. Someone like Concubine Shu, who would harm her? No one believed it. β
"That's right, Concubine Shu has been in the palace for so many years, and she has never had a word with anyone. Who would poison her? "Queen Wu Yashi also felt that this method did not work.
Su Xin continued: "If it doesn't make sense, then how about saying that someone wants to murder the queen?" β
"What?!" Empress Wu Yashi was displeased, "Su Xin, what are you talking about?" β
"Murder of the queen's mother......" Concubine Xiao thought about it and was overjoyed. Don't blame Su Xin yet. β
Then he immediately congratulated the queen: "Congratulations to the queen, we have finally come up with a brilliant excuse." β
Su Xin smiled and nodded, "It seems that Concubine Xiao has understood." β
Empress Wu Yashi asked, "What do you mean?" β
"Queen, think about it. These two plates of rose crisp are poisonous, which means that the four mothers may be the murderers who want to poison them. It's just that the lady concubine is greedy and eats the rose crisp first, and then she will be poisoned first. If it's the queen, what if you eat the rose cake first? Isn't that supposed to be another story? β
"It means to direct the whole thing to the person who wants to murder Bengong, and Concubine Shu and Wan Guifei are just the scapegoats of Bengong."
"Exactly."
"But...... We've got to find a murderer. β
Su Xin smiled: "The slave maid has long thought of who the murderer is. β
