Chapter 028: Wronged

"The jade hook is for the emperor, and for the queen mother. Mu Qingchen came to the main hall of Ci'an Palace, looked at the two people sitting on the top, and saluted.

It seems that Shen Bining is really going to make trouble, but it is poisoning, and it is not fatal, so she made such a big battle, which made her a little surprised by Shen Bining's status in the Shen family.

"Queen Mother, you must be the master for Bining-" Shen Bihuan sat beside the Queen Mother, looking at the Queen Mother with an aggrieved expression, as if she was holding grievances for her sister.

Mu Qingchen sneered, who in Ningyue Kingdom didn't know that there was a fierce fight between the concubines of the Prime Minister's Mansion at the beginning, Shen Bihuan treated her mother harshly and despised her sister, Shen Bining didn't respect her mother and sister, but she came here to play the role of sisterhood, really when she came from a foreign country, didn't she know anything?

Inevitably, it's ridiculous!

"Mu Qingchen, are you guilty?" The Queen Mother heard Shen Bihuan's cry, immediately turned her head, looked at Mu Qingchen standing in the hall, and shouted angrily.

The jade hook was frightened, and he didn't know where the sin was, so he asked the Queen Mother to make it clear. Mu Qingchen blessed himself again, and said to the Queen Mother calmly.

"Hmph, Concubine Yi was poisoned not long ago, just drank the ginger tea you sent, according to the girl Nuan Xia next to her, that ginger tea, you forced Bi Ning to drink it, do you dare to deny it?" The Queen Mother said to Mu Qingchen with disgust in her eyes.

"The ginger tea was sent over by someone ordered by the jade hook, this is true, but in this process, the jade hook has never touched the bowl of ginger tea, so how can it be poisoned?" Mu Qingchen sneered in his heart, but his face became more and more aggrieved, "What's more, the so-called persecution is just the words of the girls, the queen mother is aware of everything, how can she be gullible? ”

"What a sharp-toothed Jade Hook Princess, I underestimate you. Well, since you want evidence, then I will give you evidence!" Xiao Ling suddenly opened his mouth at this time, shouting loudly, "Someone-"

As Xiao Ling's words fell, Ruo Li, who was supposed to be in King Yi's Mansion, and the doctor who treated Shen Bining were tied into the palace, just when Qingchen secretly sighed at the speed of Xiao Ling and the Queen Mother's movements, he heard Xiao Ling speak again:

"Princess Yi, do you know these two people?"

"Naturally, I know each other, I have seen Jade Hook before entering the palace, one is Ruo Li, who is in charge of Jade Hook's diet, and the other is Dr. Zhou, who diagnoses the pulse of Concubine Shen. Mu Qingchen replied truthfully.

"It's good for you to admit it, Doctor Zhou, tell me what the poison was in Concubine Shen, when it was poisoned, and how it was poisoned? The Queen Mother glanced at Mu Qingchen and spoke to Doctor Zhou.

"Emperor Qi, Queen Mother, the grass people were invited to the Yiwang Mansion to diagnose the pulse of Shen Concubine Shen in the warm winter, when the grass people arrived, Shen Concubine Shen had been poisoned for half an hour, and the grass people verified that the poison in Shen Concubine was called Red Snake Grass, and the symptoms of taking this poison were like being poisoned by the red snake, which was very dangerous, and when Shen Concubine was poisoned, she did only take a bowl of ginger tea, so the grass people could be sure that Shen Concubine was poisoned when she drank ginger tea. Dr. Zhou thought for a moment and said.

"Even if Concubine Shen was poisoned at that time, it doesn't mean that the poison was caused by me. Actually, from beginning to end, I haven't touched that bowl, which can be proved not only by the girl Jin Yan next to me, but also by the people in the kitchen of King Yi's Mansion and Concubine Shen herself. Mu Qingchen replied calmly.

"But the mourning family heard that this girl who is responsible for making ginger tea is by your side, it is hard to guarantee that you did not instruct her to poison the ginger tea, what else do you have to say?" the queen mother spoke again.

"The Queen Mother Mingjian, although this girl is my errand boy, but she is not my personal maidservant, nor is she my confidant, just imagine, if I want to poison people and murder people, how can I find an untrustworthy and unreliable person?" Mu Qingchen argued.

The Queen Mother never thought that Mu Qingchen would react so quickly, no matter what the problem was, she had a way to deal with it, so she couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Xiao Ling, but saw that Xiao Ling looked at Mu Qingchen with a thoughtful expression, as if she saw something else through Mu Qingchen.

"Although she is not your confidant, she may be bought by you!" Xiao Ling seemed to think of something, and suddenly spoke, and his eyes looking at Ruo Li also had a hint of murderous intent that could not be mistaken.

"If she can really be bought by me, she can naturally be bought by others, but it may not be that someone else bought her to frame me?" Although Mu Qingchen said this, the aggrieved expression on his face remained the same, and no one could bear to blame her if he saw it.

"You quibble! Bining is good, how could he frame you? It is clear that you are jealous that Bining has won the favor of King Yi and are worried that your position is unstable......" Shen Bihuan spoke at this time.

"Where is Concubine De Niangniang talking about this? Jade Hook didn't say that Concubine Shen framed Jade Hook, how could Concubine De Niangniang guess like this......" Qingchen pretended to be surprised, his eyes were full of horror, and he seemed to say this sentence inadvertently, but the Queen Mother glanced at Shen Bihuan with great disapproval, with a warning.

Shen Bihuan glared at Mu Qingchen fiercely, so he had no choice but to be silent, sitting in his place, the cold light in his eyes almost splitting Mu Qingchen's five horses.

"His Royal Highness King Yi has entered the palace to meet you-" Wu Haifu, the chief eunuch of Ci'an Palace, shouted outside the palace, and then Xiao Yi's figure appeared at the door.

"The ministers see the emperor, see the queen mother. Xiao Yat stepped forward and saluted.

"Brother Nine Emperors, what are you doing in the palace when you don't accompany Concubine Shen in the mansion?" asked Xiao Ling.

"Brother Qiqi, the younger brother is here for the poisoning of Concubine Shen. Xiao Yi arched his hand and spoke, "Because the younger brother has already found the real culprit who wants to poison Concubine Shen." ”

"Oh, I don't know who the so-called real murderer of the Nine Emperor Brothers is?" Xiao Ling asked with doubts flashing in his heart.

"All this, let's ask the Imperial Physician Wang to talk about it, the Imperial Physician Wang is the head of the Imperial Physician's Department, and the emperor has always trusted him, his words are much more convincing than the words of his younger brother. Xiao Yi said, and gave a look to the little eunuch behind him, and the little eunuch invited the royal eunuch in from outside the hall.

"The mourning family wants to see who the so-called real murderer of King Yi is, and why he wants to poison the niece of the mourning family. The Queen Mother snorted coldly, looking at Xiao Yi's gaze that was obviously not good.

Qingchen stood quietly aside, didn't speak again, looked at the faces of everyone in the hall, and secretly speculated in his heart.

The Queen Mother should want to take the opportunity to get rid of her, so she will keep pushing the blame on her, so what is the purpose of the Queen Mother?

Xiao Ling has a wait-and-see attitude, although she keeps helping the Queen Mother on the surface, but she has not been convicted by one-sided words, she should have other plans, perhaps, there is some kind of discord between Xiao Ling and the Queen Mother, but she has not seen anything yet.

As for Yat Siu...... Qingchen's gaze turned to the man who followed her into the palace, his face was calm, and he couldn't see any clues, but they held each other's secrets, so they shouldn't fall into the ground.

"Emperor Qiqi, at the invitation of His Royal Highness King Yi, Weichen went to King Yi's mansion to investigate, and determined that the poison in the house was red snake grass, and the time of poisoning was also consistent with what Dr. Zhou said. "However, Wei Chen can be sure that Princess Yi is not the one who poisoned her, and there are three reasons for this. ”

"Tell me about it. Xiao Ling spoke.

"First, although the poison of the red snake grass is common, but it is unique to my Ning Yue, as far as Wei Chen knows, there is no such poison in the Tianxing Kingdom, the princess of the jade hook has just arrived, and she still doesn't know the customs and customs of the Ning Yue country, how do you know the poison of the red snake grass? Imperial Physician Wang bowed his hand towards Xiao Yi.

"As the imperial physician said, the jar of ginger tea is owned by Lu Luoju in the Yi Palace, and Lu Luoju is the residence of the princess, and Ruoli is the princess's maid, so the king suspects that this poison was originally intended to be used against the princess, but the person who poisoned it did not know that the ginger tea was cooked for Concubine Shen on the order of the princess. Xiao Yat continued, "The third and most important point, according to the words of the kitchen man, the courtier searched the rooms where all the people who had come into contact with the jars during that time lived, and sure enough, they found something. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Yi nodded to Imperial Physician Wang, who asked him to bring in a woman who was also tied up from outside, who turned out to be Zhiting who was in charge of serving Qingchen's daily life.

The younger brother searched the red snake grass from this girl's room, and when this girl was found, she looked panicked, which showed that her appearance was suspicious. Xiao Yi said, letting Zhiting kneel on the ground.

"It seems that this matter is indeed not the work of Princess Yi, Princess Yi, do you have anything else to say?" Xiao Ling turned his head to look at Mu Qingchen and asked.

"Thank you to the emperor for his insight, and Qingchen is grateful. Mu Qingchen bowed down, bowed down and said, "Qingchen doesn't have anything else to say, but if the emperor allows, please also ask the emperor to transfer the maidservants around the jade hook back to the palace, not to mention that the jade hook came from afar from the Tianxing Kingdom, and there is not much intersection with these maidservants, not to mention it, just say that the two of them were given by the emperor, and it is difficult to guarantee that some people with a heart will not have a grudge against the emperor......

"You ......" Xiao Ling didn't expect Mu Qingchen to say this, he was shocked and angry for a while, and glanced at the Queen Mother without a trace, and sure enough, he found that the Queen Mother was suspicious in her eyes.

"Okay, drag this rebellious girl out and beat her to death, and the rest of the girl should be transferred back to the palace, right under the nose of the mourning family, the mourning family will see what waves she can make!" The queen mother said coldly, "Your Majesty, since you are sitting in the position of the Ninety-Five, you should know what to do and what not to do." ”

"The sons obey the teachings of the queen mother. Xiao Ling bowed down and replied, but Qingchen clearly saw the indifference in Xiao Ling's eyes, and there was no respect at all.

"King Yi, you should also step down, Concubine Shen has suffered a lot of grievances today, and she needs to be comforted. Finally, the Queen Mother spoke again.

Xiao Yi saluted, and left Ci'an Palace with Qingchen, except for the palace gate, and headed towards King Yi's mansion.

"You are the one who has been wronged in today's matter. Xiao Yi said indifferently.

"What is this grievance, in fact, speaking of which, you reacted quickly enough, and I don't lose anything. Mu Qingchen changed his weakness, and his eyes were sharp.
