Chapter 331: The thief shouts to catch the thief
"Indeed, this prince met the lord of Nan'an and the king of Yunan in the peony garden."
Shen Baiwei heard the three words of Yunan Wang, and the memories of humiliation swept over, biting her lower lip, and her voice became mean: "Even if the lord of Nan'an has a witness, he can't clear the suspicion, after all...... The people of Dali Tai found oleander powder on the outer top of my incense box, and above my incense box was the incense box of the lord of Nan'an. ”
Ouyang Yi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his gaze at Su Qingcheng couldn't help but become complicated: "Come on, bring the incense boxes of the two." ”
The two delicate incense boxes were held up by the officers and soldiers, and it was obvious to the naked eye that Shen Baiwei's incense boxes were hollow shaped, and it was indeed possible that they had penetrated from below.
"What does the Lord of Nan'an have to say?" The Four Princes said.
"Just now, Miss Shen asked the county lord a few questions, now it's time for me to ask Miss Shen." Shen Baiwei's eyes flickered, and she suddenly had a bad premonition, she subconsciously glanced at her friend who was kneeling behind her, and Miss Lin replied to her with a reassuring look, and she was relieved.
"Nan'an County Lord, may I ask."
"Do you know what kind of incense this county lord is?"
Shen Baiwei sneered: "The county lord hasn't opened the incense box again, let alone a people's girl, I'm afraid the others don't know." ”
"The lord of this county has brought the name of Beiyuan, and it is the spring letter of the snow in the snow." Su Chengcheng did not leave, and his voice was gentle and powerful.
"So what, is the county lord still showing off how noble you are and how precious and rare the incense you have brought?" Shen Baiwei sneered, "Even if you bring the ambergris that the king loves, I'm afraid it has nothing to do with today's poisoning." ”
The snow spring letter is the thing of the northern abyss, and as the head of the three kingdoms, the northern abyss is rich in land and resources, although this snow spring letter is circulated between the two countries, but the price is expensive and very rare. Even the four princes and the eldest princess present had only heard of it but had not heard of it.
But when Su Tingcheng said that the incense she was carrying was the spring letter in the snow, the eldest princess who had been worried about her breathed a sigh of relief, if it was the spring letter in the snow, Su Tingcheng's suspicion would be gone in an instant......
"If Miss Shen doesn't know what the Spring Letter in the Snow is, the county lord doesn't mind sending a book of Baixiang to the Shen Mansion." Su Qingcheng smiled and was generous.
Shen Baiwei's face turned red with anger, and she said, "Is the county lord laughing at me for being ignorant?" It's just a taste of incense, no matter how precious it is, I will say it bluntly, the folk girl suspects that the lord of Nan'an put oleander powder on her incense box, and then fell into my incense box! ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion in the lobby, and Ouyang Yi had to speak up again: "Silence! Miss Shen's speculation is not without evidence...... Does the lord of Nan'an have any arguments? ”
Su Qingcheng got up and slowly walked to the side of the officer and soldier holding the incense box, and there was no panic on her face: "Spring letter in the snow, as the name suggests, is an incense that can only be made by grinding in the snow in winter and can only be made in the spring of the next year. ”
"Lord Nan'an! Dali Terrace is not a place for you to show off," Shen Baiwei rolled her eyes unabashedly, where is there still the reserved and dignified dignity of a noble girl, "You are talking so much, are you nervous that I found out about your crime?" ”
Su Qingcheng chuckled, and the contrast with Shen Baiwei's shrew appearance was obvious: "What the county lord wants to say is that in addition, the spring letter in the snow is extremely difficult to preserve, and it needs to be handmade with a pure handmade ice blue and white jade incense box to keep its original fragrance, and this kind of incense box is of delicate quality, as smooth as an ice spring, not to mention the powder of oleander, even if the dust is on it, it can't stand." ”
Shen Baiwei's face changed slightly, and she said without giving up: "How is it possible, then how to explain the powder on the top of my incense box?" It must be something at the bottom of the county lord's incense box......" Her voice trembled, trying to hide her uneasiness.
Su Tingcheng flipped the incense box, Wu Ya brought a bowl of flour from nowhere, only to see Su Tingcheng grab the flour and sprinkle it on the incense box: "The flour is finer than oleander powder, please take a look." ”
Sure enough, the flour did not leave any traces on the ice blue and white jade incense box, as if it slid down like flowing water for a moment.
"Miss Shen, if the county lord remembers correctly, the Shen family seems to have always been standing on the side of the three princes, why are they interested in participating in the three princes' incense tasting meeting today? I don't know if there is an invitation? ”
As soon as Su Qingcheng's voice fell, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Baiwei, the matter had come to this point, the fourth prince had naturally guessed the truth of this, and said coldly: "This prince remembers that he has never given Miss Shen a post, Lichun, how did Miss Shen come in?" ”
"Back to the prince, Miss Shen is here with Miss Lin, and one post can bring two people in."
Su Tingcheng chuckled: "It turns out that Miss Shen came in as Miss Lin's maid." ”
"You ......" Shen Baiwei's muscles burst out, and she said angrily, "I was poisoned!" Why are you all talking to her! Could it be that your royal family is joining forces to bully me, a common person? ”
The eldest princess was about to get angry, and Su Tingcheng threw a glance at her, and she snorted coldly and sat down again.
"Speaking of poisoning, the county lord has something to say, oleander poisoning can cause nausea and vomiting at best, and death from heart rhythm disorders, and the guests near the incense burner are all nauseous, why did Miss Shen vomit blood?"
"That's because...... I'm weak. Shen Baiwei panicked and said.
"I see, except for Miss Shen, the rest of the poisoned people are all men, and their physique is naturally better than Miss Shen," Su Qingcheng said slowly, "Then why is Miss Shen, who is weak, still standing here alive after vomiting blood, while the strong adult man is still resting in bed?" ”
"Please take a clear look at the four princes, I think that today's poisoning was all directed and acted by Miss Shen and wanted to blame me." Su Qingcheng raised his hands above his head and made a loud sound.
"Lord Nan'an! Don't deceive people too much, I'm just ...... The poor man who wanted to defect to the Four Princes but accidentally fell for the design of the villain! Shen Baiwei teared her heart and lungs, "Besides, you say that I was poisoned based on this alone, in case I have a special physique, and the symptoms after poisoning are different from others." ”
Ouyang Yi was very entangled, and now he naturally saw that what Su Qingcheng said was the truth, but there was no evidence at the moment that it was a play directed and acted by Shen Baiwei.
"I can testify that this poison was jointly inflicted by Miss Shen and Miss Lin," a masked man walked out from behind Ouyang Yi's seat, and Su Chengcheng recognized it at a glance, this person was Su Yizhi, "I was a doorman in the Four Princes' Mansion, and I happened to hear Shen and Lin conspiring to poison the two young ladies outside the attic. ”
