Chapter 49: The Night of Sudden Change
Just when Xiao Jingce was in a dilemma and wanted to find a reason to refuse the Queen Mother, An Ping's voice suddenly came from outside.
"Imperial grandmother, don't check, my grandson knows who the real murderer is." An Ping walked in with a righteous face, came to Chi Wanwan's side, and stood still.
"It's her, Princess Jingnan, Chi Wanwan."
An Ping pointed at Chi Wanwan with her right hand, her face full of determination, as if she had witnessed the process at the scene.
"Anping, don't mess around."
Although the Queen Mother was angry, she had not lost her mind.
At this time, Chi Wanwan was the only hope to save the emperor, otherwise, when she reprimanded the imperial doctors just now, she would not have left Chi Wanwan alone.
"Imperial grandmother, don't be deceived by her, she is a thief shouting to catch a thief."
"Think about it, my father is seriously ill, she has been treating it for the past few days, and she has personally boiled the medicine, and there is a group of eunuchs and palace maids staring at her, except for her, who else can have this ability?"
An Ping's mouth seemed to be open at this minute, chattering, and quite organized.
"Princess Anping, it's not enough to rely on just one mouth, you have to prove your words, don't slander this concubine like this because I broke your ugly thing."
Not to be outdone, Chi Wanwan couldn't help but sneer, she just broke her mess yesterday, and she couldn't help biting people today, and she really didn't miss any opportunity to kill herself.
"Does this still need proof? The people of the whole dormitory, besides you, who else can serve my father closely? ”
An Ping retorted loudly, staring at Chi Wanwan with a cold look in his eyes.
"Yes, the emperor's grandmother, even the grandson, is also to let Chi Wanwan guard, half a point can't get close to the father, in this hall, except for her, no one else can do it."
Seeing that An Ping wanted to kick Chi Wanwan off the oil pot, Xiao Jingce naturally spared no effort to add a fire.
"This ......" The Queen Mother was a little hesitant, looking at the prince's brothers and sisters, and then at Chi Wanwan, she naturally believed in her family more, but Chi Wanwan was the hope of saving the emperor.
"Imperial grandmother, if you don't believe it, you can rummage through her room, there will always be evidence left for crimes, and in such a short time, she must not have time to deal with it."
An Ping saw that the Queen Mother was shaken, and he was overjoyed, didn't Chi Wanwan want evidence? She has.
"Queen Mother, the prince's brothers and sisters are reasonable, such a person, if he is not successful this time, he will definitely find another opportunity to start and stay by the emperor's side, can you rest assured?"
"If you follow what Anping said, searching the princess's room can be regarded as giving her an explanation."
Can the queen not know what the queen mother's hesitation is?
Then she blocked the only back road, Chi Wanwan didn't know what to do, and she was innocent.
The three of them, mother and son, spoke and agreed, seamlessly, and Chi Wanwan opened her mouth several times, but she was forcibly interrupted and suppressed.
"Come on, thoroughly investigate the palace of Princess Jingnan."
The queen obviously poked the queen mother's weakness, the queen mother only thought about the emperor's safety, if Chi Wanwan was really such a person, how could she dare to use it with confidence?
A group of eunuchs and palace maids quickly ran to Chi Wanwan's palace.
The Queen Mother opened her mouth, and they all said that two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention eight hands on the opposite side.
Chi Wanwan was a little helpless, thinking that she would not do anything wrong, but looking at An Ping's triumphant expression, she felt faintly uneasy in her heart.
Soon, a small eunuch trotted in with a bag of medicine residue.
"Queen Mother, this was found under the princess's bed." The little eunuch handed the medicine residue to the Queen Mother.
"Doctor, check." The Queen Mother didn't expect to really turn things out, and her heart turned upside down.
"Back to the Queen Mother, there are indeed ingredients in the medicine residue that poisoned the emperor." The Imperial Doctor carefully looked through the medicine scum.
"The Queen Mother, the courtiers are dedicated to saving the emperor, who stopped me from saving the emperor before, have you forgotten?"
Chi Wanwan knew that she was powerless to defend herself, but it was not bad to plant a seed of doubt for the Queen Mother at this time.
"Someone is coming, put Princess Jingnan in prison."
Of course, the Queen Mother didn't forget, but at this time, she was furious, where could she tolerate Chi Wanwan's more words, and identify everything as her quibble.
And she thinks that even if the prince acts ruthlessly, can he still be ruthless enough to poison his own father?
Chi Wanwan was escorted to the cell by the Queen Mother's people, and a foul smell came, and rats squeaked and scurried around.
Chi Wanwan hurriedly dodged away, there were a lot of viruses carried by the rats, and she didn't want to get the plague.
Chi Wanwan hid in the corner with some sorrow, staying up until the evening, and was worrying about how to avoid intimate contact with rats when the cell door was suddenly opened by the jailer.
"Princess, please." The jailer looked respectful.
"You are?" Chi Wanwan looked at the person who came vigilantly, could it be that the person behind the scenes sent to kill people?
"Princess, please look."
The jailer gave a token to Chi Wanwan, which turned out to be Xiao Junmo's arrangement.
Chi Wanwan was relieved to follow the jailer to a spacious and bright cell, which was cleaned, the mattress was brand new and clean, and the food was even more abundant.
"Thank you, go get busy." Chi Wanwan ate happily, and sighed that Xiao Junmo was really one of the top ten good golden thighs.
She's comfortable here, but she's not at ease outside.
For several days in a row, the emperor's condition became more and more serious, and the imperial doctor had no countermeasures, and the queen mother killed three old imperial doctors in a fit of anger, and people were panicked for a while.
"The Queen Mother, the imperial doctors are all experienced, what incurable diseases can be difficult to overcome? But this time it's all helpless, don't you think there's a problem? ”
It was the Queen Mother's personal grandmother who spoke, who grew up together since childhood, and was very trusted by the Queen Mother.
"What do you mean?" The Queen Mother was puzzled.
"I'm afraid it's an evil one." The old lady was close to the queen mother's ear and said word by word.
"This, if it's true, then it all makes sense."
Although the Queen Mother was a little shocked by her words, she was in awe of ghosts and gods, and the Queen Mother immediately agreed with the old lady's statement in her heart.
And because the old lady is her cronie, the trust has increased by three points, and the emperor's condition is getting worse and worse, the queen mother has long been suspicious.
Therefore, I made up my mind directly and asked a Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts.
The Queen Mother has lived in the deep palace for a long time, and she is not clear about these, and in the end she has to rely on the old lady.
The old lady spent a lot of money to invite a famous exorcist in the rivers and lakes, the old Taoist priest was dressed in a Taoist robe, had a long beard, gray hair, but shrewd eyes.
"The Queen Mother's eyebrows and eyes are black, her spirit is not good, I am afraid that she has been haunted by bad luck recently, and she is often accompanied by nightmares in the middle of the night, and she often wakes up."
When the old Taoist priest saw the Queen Mother, he did not kneel, but commented on it.
"The master is reasonable, the mourning family often has nightmares in the middle of the night, and often wakes up, as if he has weighed a thousand pounds on his body."
The Queen Mother was not angry, but she was excited, and she was hit, and the old Taoist priest was right.
"The Queen Mother is afraid that she will be haunted by ghosts, and when Poor Dao does a ritual for the Queen Mother tonight, she will be safe and sound."
The old Taoist priest stroked his long beard, and his face was unfathomable.
The Queen Mother naturally agreed, and on the night she finished doing the rituals, the Queen Mother did sleep peacefully.
Early the next morning, he asked the Taoist priest to prepare to exorcise evil spirits for the emperor, but in the process of doing so, the Taoist priest's dust accidentally knocked over the candles, lit the curtain of the dormitory, and a fire swept in.
Everyone was in a hurry to transfer the emperor, and everyone was talking about it, which was a great omen.
