Emperor Yanbei said to the five princes and the five princesses, "Can you prove that you have not done it?"

The Fifth Imperial Concubine said, "Your Majesty, you can check out the other pastries I made, and they're all right."

The fourth princess added faintly, "So it was the eighth brother who had an accident in the end."

The fifth princess shaved the four princesses fiercely, and finally looked at the five princes helplessly.

Emperor Yanbei said, "Since you can't prove your innocence, poison the prince, and punish the crime, come and take the five princesses down."

"Father!" The fifth prince hurriedly called.

But before he could say the following, Emperor Yanbei took a step forward and said, "If you fail to take good care of your princess, causing her to do such a thing, you will inevitably be punished, demoted to a knighthood, and meditate on yourself in the claustrophobic mansion."

As Emperor Yanbei's words fell, the forbidden army took the five princes and the five princesses away.

The four princesses lowered their heads slightly, and a little pride appeared in their eyes.

Emperor Yanbei's eyes fell on the four princes and the four princesses, and said to them with a calm face: "Xiao Ba is in your mansion, and you didn't check all the food to be eaten, which caused Xiao Ba to be poisoned, so he is not sober, and he will be fined for three years, stay in the mansion and reflect on it!" Let no one enter or leave until he has received his will."

The fourth prince was a little stunned for a moment when he listened to Emperor Yanbei's order, and then he reacted and asked Emperor Yanbei, "Father, this, isn't this the fault of the fifth brother and sister? Why do you punish us?"

The fourth princess also said, "It was the pastry brought by the fifth brother and sister, and I didn't want to check it, and I really didn't expect that the fifth brother and sister, who usually look very pure, would do such a thing."

Emperor Yanbei didn't mean to answer them, and said to Ye Lin on the side, "Take them down."

"Yes." Ye Lin responded and personally led people to send them back to the Four Princes' Mansion, and also sent heavy troops to guard them.

Back in the mansion, the fourth prince could no longer hide his ugly expression.

The fourth princess was also very worried and asked, "What does Your Majesty mean by this? Doesn't he believe us?"

"The fifth child has always liked to pull his princess to pretend to be in love, and there is no concubine in this house, so that the father often reminds him of the time he spent with the queen in the past, so he has always been very good, if any of the brothers does not have the heart to seize the throne, the father will definitely be the first to believe in the fifth child." The fourth prince said with a calm face.

This is also why the five princes obviously don't seem to have the slightest intention of seizing the throne at the moment, but he wants to take this opportunity to get rid of him.

In case, their brothers fought for their heads and bloodshed, but in the end let the fifth prince be this fisherman, it would be more than worth the loss.

"Father thinks it's us? Think it's the five princes we framed?" The fourth princess asked worriedly.

The fourth prince soothed: "What's the use of him thinking like this in his heart, then Sheng Qingyuan and Ye Lin can't find anything wrong, who else can find out, without evidence, my father has to believe it even if he doesn't want to believe it."

"But what now? The second princess and we are both trapped in the mansion, and we don't know anything about the outside world, and if the other princes take advantage of this time to enter, all the work we have done will be wasted." The fourth princess said worriedly.

"There's nothing to worry about, there are benefits to staying in the mansion, I look at my father, I can't die for a while, we just take advantage of this time to rest a little." The fourth prince said lightly.

If they have been locked up in the palace, but something still happens in the palace, wouldn't it just mean that they have nothing to do with them?

Looking at the four princes who were not in a hurry at all, the four princesses and concubines pinched their hearts.

At the moment, she couldn't be optimistic.

Obviously, all the evidence points to the five princesses, but His Majesty still punished them so heavily, I don't know what His Majesty's attitude is.

Glancing at the four princes with indifferent faces again, the four princesses couldn't help but sigh again.

I hope everything can go as smoothly as the four princes expected.

Palace

……

After a few people were taken away, the Eighth Prince, who was supposed to be unconscious in the side hall, came to Emperor Yanbei's bedroom at this time, except for the little face and a little pale, there was nothing wrong with other looks, and when he saw Sheng Qingyuan, he first called: "Sister Sheng."

Then he saluted Emperor Yanbei, "Father."

Looking at the pale face of the Eighth Prince, Emperor Yanbei was also distressed, waved his hand at the Eighth Prince, motioned for him to come over, and asked gently, "Are you still uncomfortable?"

The Eighth Prince shook his head and said, "Don't feel uncomfortable, Sister Sheng is very powerful."

Seeing that the eighth prince was very dependent on Sheng Qingyuan, Emperor Yanbei was very pleased, and he felt more and more that these two sisters and brothers were also destined.

It's so far away, but they can also meet each other, and they are still the sisters who saved their younger brothers.

"If you're comfortable, you know?" Emperor Yanbei touched the head of the Eighth Emperor and said.

"Hmm." The Eighth Prince nodded vigorously.

Then, Emperor Yanbei asked Sheng Qingyuan, "Qingyuan, so what's going on?"

Sheng Qingyuan said, "My guess is that the food is restrained."

"But Ye Lin said that he ruled out the possibility of food restraint." Emperor Yanbei said with his eyebrows condensed.

Sheng Qingyuan said: "It's not that the food is restrained by the food, but that the smell of the surroundings enters the body, and then it is restrained by what Kangkang eats."

After a pause, Sheng Qingyuan frowned and said, "It's just that the time for that smell to appear was too short, I didn't have time to study what it was, and I couldn't smell it again afterwards."

Afterwards, Sheng Qingyuan said, "If you can, I want to go to the room of the fourth princess to find it."

"The room of the four princesses?"

Sheng Qingyuan nodded, "When I first arrived at the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the Fourth Princess's concubine invited me to her room on the grounds that I was not feeling well, and asked me to help diagnose her pulse.

Having said this, Emperor Yanbei suddenly looked worried and anxious: "Then how are you? Is there anything wrong?"

Sheng Qingyuan smiled lightly: "I'm fine, I can't help me with ordinary poison."

Looking at Sheng Qingyuan's breezy appearance, Emperor Yanbei not only did not mean to breathe a sigh of relief, but became even more worried and guilty.

A person like Sheng Qingyuan, who had no effect on her with most poisons, had seen it before, and such people often needed to be fed with a lot of poison in order to have such an effect.

And this process is often extremely painful.

What happened to make this happen?

His debt to Sheng Qingyuan is difficult to repay.

This is also why in front of the second princess and the fourth prince, he did not hide the importance he attached to Sheng Qingyuan.

Although Sheng Qingyuan has not yet decided whether to disclose her identity, he just wants to send a message to everyone that Sheng Qingyuan is very important and very important to him, so if anyone wants to bully her, they must weigh it first.

Emperor Yanbei narrowed his eyes, pressed these emotions to the depths of his heart, and then asked Sheng Qingyuan, "Do you think it is possible that the fifth child did it?"

"Judging by the current contact, it doesn't look like it." Sheng Qingyuan said truthfully.

After a pause, Sheng Qingyuan said again: "It's just that I haven't had much contact with them, so I don't know much about their actual situation, and I don't rule out the possibility that I have been making a show."

"Hmm." Emperor Yanbei nodded.

In front of the throne, it is difficult to guarantee that there is no absolute selfishness.

Some people disguise well, some people poorly, but in the end they all agree on the same idea.

Finally, Emperor Yanbei's eyes looked at Shen Zhao, "What do you think?"

Shen Zhao said, "Just give it a try."

Emperor Yanbei raised his eyebrows, "How to try?"

The next day, a message came from the palace that the eighth prince was seriously ill and the treatment was ineffective, and finally

Early death. Look at the book

After Emperor Yanbei learned the news, he was so angry that he vomited blood, and his already bad health was even more serious at this time.

The five princesses who caused the poisoning of the eighth prince were ordered to be executed, and the chief eunuch personally sent poisoned wine.

When the Fifth Imperial Concubine learned the news, she was completely stupid, and kept crying, "I really didn't poison His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness, I really didn't."

The chief eunuch looked at her, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Fifth princess, Your Majesty favors Your Highness the Eight, and Your Highness the Eighth Highness was poisoned to death because of your pastry, Your Majesty is naturally sad and angry, and you refuse to admit it, in the eyes of Your Majesty, you just don't admit your guilt, doesn't this make Your Majesty even more angry?"

The chief eunuch said helplessly: "Originally, according to your relationship with the Fifth Highness, your mother clan and your filial piety to Your Majesty over the years, Your Majesty estimated that it could still surround your life for the sake of the Fifth Highness, but you ......

After speaking, the chief eunuch let out a long sigh.

The Fifth Imperial Concubine burst into tears, "But I really haven't done it, what I haven't done, how can you let me admit it?"

The chief eunuch said helplessly: "Since you still insist on this statement, the old slave can't help you."

The voice landed, and the eunuch on the side sent the poisoned wine.

The chief eunuch said, "Don't worry, this wine is very poisonous, it attacks quickly, and it won't make you too painful."

The fifth princess looked at the poisonous wine next to her, and her tears flowed even more, and finally she tearfully picked up the wine glass filled with poisonous wine, and said to the chief eunuch: "I am tired of my father-in-law helping me and His Highness to say that I am useless, unable to defend myself, and even causing him to be degraded, I can't stand him, and I will ...... in the future Find a better princess."

After speaking, the five princesses closed their eyes and drank all the poisonous wine with tears in their eyes.

After a while, the fifth princess lost her breath and fell to the ground and died.

After the news of the poisoning of the five princesses reached the Five Princes' Mansion, the five princes were so grieved that a mouthful of blood spurted out, and they fell to the ground, with bitterness on their faces: "Ah Qing, don't be afraid, I'll accompany you."

After speaking, the five princes spurted out another mouthful of blood, and went with the five princesses.

Originally, the news that the five princesses had poisoned the eighth prince had spread widely, and there was a lot of discussion in the market, but how long had it been, and the news that the five princes and their wives had left together had come out, and the people, including the magnates in the capital, were all talking about it.

While everyone sighed at the depth of the feelings of the five princes and the five princesses, they also pushed the four princes and the four princesses to the forefront.

The five princesses would rather die than admit that it was the eighth prince she poisoned, the five princes were martyred for the princess, this is not only giving up the throne, this is for the princess not even to take her life, how could such a person do something to kill his brother?

The place where the incident happened was in the Four Princes' Mansion, and now the spearhead is suddenly directed at the Four Princes and the Four Princes' Concubines.

When the fourth princess learned the news, she immediately sat down on her chair, her face like ashes.
