Chapter 152: The Second Prince underestimated Su Moyan's medical skills
"Yes."
Gu Junjing nodded: "This plan is the arsenic mixed with the batch of medicines that Princess Jing boiled for the Queen Mother." If it weren't for the princess's meticulous heart and discovering the plan of the people behind the scenes in advance, she would have fallen for the tricks of the people behind the scenes. ”
Concubine Shu realized at this time: "Therefore, the person behind the Tianfeng Gambling House is a person in the palace, and in order not to compensate nearly 40 million taels of silver, he would rather sacrifice the Queen Mother for nothing than put Princess Jing to death!" ”
I have to say that Concubine Shu's words are very particular.
She didn't say who the people behind the scenes were, but her sentence "I'd rather sacrifice the Queen Mother for nothing" was invisibly to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and set up the ruthlessness of the people behind the scenes, and in order to achieve the goal, she did not hesitate to sacrifice the innocent people who were close to her.
When the identity of the person behind the scenes is revealed, no one will feel sorry for this murderer.
"That's true. However, he also knew that this foolproof plan, although it could kill the princess, was still too risky after all. So, he pinned all his hopes on Jun Ye. It's just that he didn't expect that Princess Bingxue was smart, and after being caught by Jun Ye, she caught a maid and painted her appearance, instead of her in Shilipo to complete the fate of being beheaded. The people behind the scenes thought that they had spent two million taels of silver and everything would be fine, but they didn't expect that early on the morning of the eighth day, they would get the news that the princess was not dead. The princess also took the soldiers of Jing Yuwei to the gambling house to ask for the eight million silver taels, and in a fit of anger, he made the foolproof plan, ran into the palace to feed the queen mother, and put all the evidence of the crime on the princess. It's a pity ......"
Gu Junjing shook his head: "He underestimated the princess's intelligence, and also underestimated the princess's medical skills. ”
"So, the person behind the Tianfeng Gambling House is the second prince?"
"Yes." Gu Junjing bowed.
Concubine Xian was stunned, and at the same time muttered: "No wonder Concubine Chen Guifei spends money like running water every month, at that time, Concubine Ben thought that she was favored by the emperor, and the people of the Internal Affairs Office gave face." Now it seems that it should be the filial piety of the second prince, but the gambling house can earn 10 million taels in just a few days, so how many years has this gambling house been established? How much money do you make each year? Has the second prince ever honored the emperor? ”
Concubine Xian's question can be said to be quite good, and it immediately made Emperor Xiaoming suspicious.
Tianfeng Gambling House is the second child, and he doesn't know about this, because the second prince has never given him this money.
Also, what has the second child done with the money he has earned over the years, except for honoring Chen Guifei?
Most of the silver taels he co-opted from the ministers on weekdays were asked for by his father, and the rest were from his concubines.
Where did the money go to the gambling house?
Emperor Xiaoming looked at Gu Junjing with a solemn expression, and Gu Junjing quickly understood that Emperor Xiaoming was suspicious in his heart.
The thin lips under his mask seemed to be smiling.
"What have you done, the minister has sorted out the evidence and put it in the box, and the emperor can check it on his own, or directly transfer it to the criminal department for investigation. After all, the duty of the younger brother is just to find out who is behind the poisoning, and the rest should not be done by the younger brother. ”
The duty given to him by the Queen Mother was to investigate the real culprit who poisoned her and Su Moyan.
He will not overstep, so that Emperor Xiaoming, after being shocked, finds fault and says that he has done something that is not within his share.
All:......
This is like listening to a book and hearing that it is rising, and suddenly there is a sentence of "I want to hear the details, wait for the next explanation", which makes people angry, anxious, and itchy.
Emperor Xiaoming also realized that there was a huge secret in this box.
And this secret, Gu Junjing was reluctant to tell it in public.
Emperor Xiaoming stood up, "He Yuan, take the things away." ”
He Yuan immediately asked people to carry the box away.
After Emperor Xiaoming left, the queen and others were curious about what was in it, but the queen had to endure it considering the sarcasm that Gu Junjing gave her.
Concubine De asked Gu Junjing curiously: "What is in there?" ”
Gu Junjing can be regarded as respectful of Concubine De.
"If the royal brother wants everyone to know, one day he will let everyone know, and if the imperial brother doesn't want everyone to know, it is inconvenient for this king to say more."
"Alright."
The Queen Mother opened her mouth at this time: "Since you know who poisoned the mourning family, you all should withdraw, except for King Jing and Princess Jing who stayed, you all go." ”
Seeing that the Queen Mother was driving away, the Queen was unwilling to stay longer.
Gu Junjing didn't want to say more, so she didn't ask, anyway, she had a way, and she could find out the results she wanted from other people.
After the concubines retreated, a little palace maid secretly went to Chen Guifei's palace.
At this time, Chen Guifei had already woken up from a coma.
She also knew that she would survive because of Su Moyan.
Maybe it was because of the dying of the person, Chen Guifei suddenly became emotional, and felt that she and the second prince couldn't stand up to Su Moyan.
The palace maid beside her also checked the fabric of the witchcraft doll and reported it to Chen Guifei.
"Niangniang, that cloth is the fire cloud cloth that Persia paid tribute to the emperor, and only the queen has it under the entire palace, so the person who harmed you may be the queen."
Thinking of the queen's aggressive appearance at that time, Chen Guifei gritted her teeth, but she couldn't speak, and could only make some strange sounds in her mouth.
"!"
At this time, a little palace maid ran over from outside, looking panicked.
"Oh no!"
Chen Guifei looked at the little palace maid who ran over, and it was the eyeliner she arranged beside Concubine Xian.
The little palace maid said to Chen Guifei: "King Jing has found out that the person who poisoned the Queen Mother is His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and he has also found evidence of many crimes committed by the Second Prince. ”
Knowing that Gu Junjing had found out the truth, Chen Guifei's heart surged, and the wound on her neck collapsed in an instant.
"!"
The grandmother who was in charge of taking care of Chen Guifei panicked, "Quick, go and call Princess Jing!" ”
Chen Guifei took her hand and shook her head vigorously.
Mama didn't know what Chen Guifei meant, until Chen Guifei motioned for her to bring a pen and paper.
When I saw Chen Guifei saying above, "Commit suicide, don't save it, don't make a noise, blame the queen, remind the emperor to remember our old feelings, spare Qi'er's life".
"Mother's ......"
Mama knelt on the ground and wanted to persuade Chen Guifei, but Chen Guifei was resolute and refused to compromise.
In the end, the grandmothers had no choice, so they took out the medicinal materials that the queen had given to Chen Guifei before, and boiled a bowl of medicine for Chen Guifei to feed.
In the Imperial Study.
Emperor Xiaoming looked at the closed box and hesitated.
He knew that as long as he opened that box, the second prince would have to die.
