Chapter 195: A bite back
..
Concubine Shu looked at Jun Shaoheng deeply, as if she wanted to imprint his appearance in her mind, and after a long time, she withdrew her gaze, straightened her waist and knelt there.
"Yes, it was the concubine's doing."
Shen Sitang and Chen Yue'an glanced at each other, neither of them was happy because of Concubine Shu's admission.
The sad face between Emperor Yongqing's eyebrows and eyes stretched, but his tone was still low: "Concubine Shu, did you really do it?" "
Concubine Shu nodded slowly: "Yes, the third prince was killed by the concubine, Xu Wangda did kill a lot of people for the concubine, the concubine is in the palace, raising a few can help, it is normal, so far, the concubine has nothing to hide." "
Emperor Yongqing's eyes were fierce: "Say, why did you kill the third prince, did you kill the fourth prince too?" "
Shen Sitang looked at Concubine Shu.
There was no superfluous expression on Concubine Shu's face, she pondered for a moment and continued: "Your Majesty, the third prince was indeed killed by the concubine, but the concubine has no choice. As she spoke, Concubine Shu actually bit her finger and let the blood drip down.
Shen Sitang's face changed suddenly when he saw Concubine Shu's blood.
Concubine Shu looked at Shen Sitang and laughed: "Deputy Envoy Shen shouldn't be unfamiliar with this, the blood of this palace is not the same as the blood of normal people, right?" "
Shen Sitang never expected that Concubine Shu's blood was cherry red, and Concubine Shu had also been poisoned by chronic poison.
Concubine Shu was laughing, and she was smiling very proudly.
It's like saying to Shen Sitang that she won this game!
"Your Majesty, the people of the Gu clan in southern Xinjiang have bought off the concubine's personal palace maid, and the concubine has fallen into their trap and contracted this chronic poison, the concubine needs to take the antidote every month, otherwise she will die in Huangquan, the concubine has no choice, the concubine can only do what they say!"
When Concubine Shu said this, she burst into tears.
Emperor Yongqing was furious: "How can this be reasonable! Nanjiang's hand actually reached out to my harem, and I thought it was Concubine Shu that you were colluding with them. "
"The concubine is already the prince's mother, why should the concubine collude with southern Xinjiang? Isn't the concubine making trouble for her son? "Z.br>
Emperor Yongqing nodded repeatedly.
Concubine Shu continued: "Why did the concubine let Xu Wangda kill those palace people, it is precisely because the concubine knows that those people are all in southern Xinjiang, Your Majesty, the concubine is so afraid, the concubine does not dare to tell Your Majesty, nor does she dare to tell the prince, the concubine is burdened with these shackles and has lived for so many years, the concubine originally thought that they just wanted to control the concubine who was the prince's biological mother, but they didn't want them to kill the three princes, and the concubine did not want to murder His Majesty's children, but the concubine had no choice, the concubine was incompetent, and the concubine was afraid of death." "
Concubine Shu burst into tears and choked up.
"Your Majesty, the Qinglan next to the third prince was arranged by people from southern Xinjiang, but they have been asking the concubine to give her the antidote, and those people in the palace are like this, they just want to make it all look like the concubine's plan, and the concubine is controlled by others, so she can only obey their arrangement."
Emperor Yongqing sighed: "I know your difficulties, Concubine Shu, I have suffered you all these years." "
When Concubine Shu heard this, she cried even louder, and she lay on the ground: "Your Majesty, it's the concubine who deserves to die, the concubine did kill a lot of people, but the prince doesn't know these things, the concubine hides everything from him, he really doesn't know anything, Your Majesty, you must believe the concubine." "
Emperor Yongqing nodded again and again: "I naturally believe in you, the prince has always been respectful, how can I doubt him." "
Jun Shaoheng spoke out at the right time: "Father, even if the mother concubine killed the third brother, she was coerced, please ask the father to spare her for the sake of the mother concubine being controlled by others!" "
Shen Sitang's hands hanging on both sides clenched into fists.
Does she believe what Concubine Shu said?
She was smiling at her just now, wasn't she telling her that it was all acting?
If Concubine Shu had a hard time, she should have said it a long time ago, and she could even take the initiative to tell Emperor Yongqing the truth after the saintess of Southern Xinjiang was expelled.
But she didn't, she killed the four princes according to their plan and framed the royal court banquet.
All this shows that Concubine Shu is not controlled by others at all!

..
As for why she was poisoned, it is very likely that she took precautions and ate the chronic poison herself, waiting to use it one day, anyway, she joined forces with Nanjiang, and the antidote must not be eaten up.
Shen Sitang's eyes lit up when she thought of this, but she quickly lowered her eyes and didn't show it.
Concubine Shu is still selling miserably: "Your Majesty, it's not a pity for the concubine to die, I just ask Your Majesty not to blame the prince, he doesn't know anything, he really doesn't know anything." "
She kept repeating this sentence, which was really a picture of the hearts of parents in the world.
Emperor Yongqing agreed, and the prince knelt beside Concubine Shu, hugging Concubine Shu and choking.
The mother and son cried distressingly.
Emperor Yongqing sighed heavily and said, "I won't blame the crown prince, concubine, you said that the third prince was killed by you, what about the fourth prince?" "
Concubine Shu shook her head, tried to stop her crying, and said with a crying tone: "The concubines knew that they would make a move on the four princes, but after the Holy Maiden of Southern Xinjiang was discovered, they broke off contact with the concubines, probably they thought that the concubines betrayed them, if the concubines hadn't killed those people before, and concealed them, and took the opportunity to hide some antidotes, I'm afraid the concubines would have died a long time ago." "
Emperor Yongqing was taken aback: "You mean, the death of the fourth prince has nothing to do with you?" "
Concubine Shu nodded: "The concubines really don't know how they want to assassinate the four princes, but the concubines know that this matter must be related to southern Xinjiang, Your Majesty, the concubines originally didn't know that southern Xinjiang colluded with the demon clan, and the concubines only learned about this recently, do you say that it is possible that this matter was done by the demon clan?" "
Emperor Yongqing looked at Shen Sitang: "Didn't Deputy Envoy Shen say before that the poison in the Four Princes is very similar to the snake demon venom?" Maybe it's really the demon clan's doing. "
Concubine Shu nodded in agreement, and then said: "Your Majesty, in fact, the concubine has always suspected that there are still people behind the people in southern Xinjiang, and the concubine is thinking, why did they choose the concubine?" There are so many concubines in the harem, and the reason why they chose the concubine is nothing more than because of the prince, so the people in southern Xinjiang are coming to the prince, and when the incident in the east window happens, if the concubine dies unexpectedly, and then present the evidence of the crime to His Majesty, the concubine has no proof of death, and the prince is speechless, so what should Your Majesty do? "
Emperor Yongqing continued her words and said, "I will naturally depose the crown prince and give him the death penalty. Speaking of this, Emperor Yongqing's face suddenly changed: "Southern Xinjiang and the demon clan actually want to murder the prince!" "
Concubine Shu looked puzzled: "But Your Majesty, what is the benefit to them of getting rid of the crown prince?" If the crown prince is given death by His Majesty, and the other princes also die one after another, then who will benefit in the end? "
Emperor Yongqing looked at the Junting Banquet.
Concubine Shu once again pointed the finger at the Jun Ting Banquet.
Emperor Yongqing narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Emperor, you once went to the border city to attack the southern Xinjiang and defeated them, you told me that you would not conspire with the people of the southern Xinjiang!" As long as you say, I will believe you! "... co
