Chapter 126: A Strange Death
Shen Xihe never expected that Bian Xianyi would die in front of her like this.

Bian Xianyi, that girl who is full of tenacity and never bows her head. Even if the Bian family committed a crime and entered Yeting, she will try her best to live her own way. Such a person should care more about her own life, how could she die so easily? What?

Shen Xihe couldn't figure it out, but Bian Xianyi did die just like that.

After the maid who followed Bian Xianyi found out, she screamed, attracting countless maids from all around, and soon there were guards, servants, and medical workers from the forbidden palace, and then Concubine Rong Gui, who was in charge of the harem, brought Princess Pingling to arrive.

"What happened?" Concubine Rong asked.

Bian Xianyi died in a miserable state, and everyone who saw her face covered in blood felt lingering fear, mistakenly thinking that it was Shen Xi and Shen Gongdu who killed her, so they trembled and did not dare to speak out.

"Medical worker Fang, why did everyone in Bian die so tragically?" Concubine Rong asked the medical worker who came over.

"Ms. Bian, everyone in Bian is taking poison. This poison is extracted from a kind of poisonous mushroom, which instantly causes people to bleed from all seven orifices, and all internal organs are damaged. The Daluo Immortal is also unable to return to heaven." The medical worker replied.

"Why did everyone in Bian get poisoned? Why is there such poison in the palace?" Concubine Rong glanced around sharply, and everyone was silent, not daring to say a word.In the end, Shen Xihe's expression relaxed, "Why is Princess Zhaoning here?"

"Young concubine, I entered the palace today, and asked Bian to clear up the confusion, but Bian took poison and committed suicide in front of me." She said, her eyes fell on the tea bowl that Bian Xianyi was eating, "If I guess correctly, there is poison in the tea bowl."

After receiving the hint from Concubine Rong, Medical Worker Fang immediately went to check the tea bowl, and it turned out that the tea bowl was poisonous.

Shen Xihe originally thought that only Bian Xianyi's bowl was poisonous, not his own bowl, so that he could better frame himself, but her tea bowl was also poisonous, and finally it was found that the teapot was poisonous.

Bian Xianyi made the teapot in person, and many palace attendants in the tea room saw it, and afterward, some people came with her along the way.

Helping her bring over all the refreshments she made today, she waited here until someone invited Shen Xihe over.

Shen Xihe didn't even have time for half a cup of tea, so it was impossible to force Bian Xianyi away and poison the tea behind her back.

"Today, everyone in Bian seemed to know that the princess would come, so they asked their servants to wait outside." The maid who led the way for Shen Xihe said in a low voice.

"Master Bian said some strange things today." Another court lady said, "She said that she might not be able to have tea with us in the future."

"My maidservant came to the tea room today, and it happened that everyone in Bian had made tea. Everyone in Bian was very good at making tea. In the past, everyone was easy-going, so they had the audacity to beg for a bowl. Today, everyone in Bian refused to give it, and said, 'This tea is not suitable for drinking'. " Another court lady said.

Many people echoed her words.

In this way, it became clear that Bian Xianyi committed suicide by taking poison, but why did she take poison herself?Could it be that he was cornered?The matter involved Shen Xihe again, Concubine Rong didn't dare to make a judgment, so she could only report it to Emperor Youning.

Emperor Youning called them all to Mingzheng Hall and asked why.

Up to now, Shen Xihe couldn't hide it, so he briefly said: "Zhaoning is weak, and has been treated by a famous doctor. Don't be disturbed during the treatment. On the eleventh day, someone pretended to leave with brother The guards entered the mansion, and when Zhaoning was treating his illness, they shouted that brother was in ambush..."

Afterwards, Shen Xihe almost lost his life. This man fell into the hands of the guard commander of the princess mansion. They found out that he drank a pot of Jiannanchun, and then guessed his identity based on his habits. They asked Cui Shaoqing to help investigate secretly, and found out Bian Xianyi here.

Shen Xihe said everything, but Xie Yunhuai was completely taken out.

After hearing this, Emperor Youning summoned Cui Jinbai. Cui Jinbai had submitted a memorial as early as two days ago, saying that someone used death row prisoners to commit murder. Emperor Youning already had some confidence in this matter.

Cui Jinbai came, and the person who helped Bian Xianyi deceive Fu Jin into meeting Zhang Zhuo in the cell also pleaded guilty. Bian Xianyi did have Jiannanchun, and Zhang Zhuo drank a pot of Jiannanchun at the residence of this admirer and rested overnight.

This person thought Jian Nanchun's jug was very beautiful, and Bian Xianyi sent it, so he washed it and put it away, and now it has become a witness.

Everything has its beginning and end, it was Bian Xianyi who wanted to assassinate Shen Xihe first, and then found out that Shen Xihe had found out, so she took the blame and committed suicide.

"Your Majesty, there is something strange about this matter." Shen Xihe didn't want to close the case so easily, "Zhaoning and Bian have no quarrel, what motive did Bian have for harming Zhaoning?

The maid said that everyone in Bian had been waiting for Zhaoning early in the morning, and Zhaoning only found out that she did it this morning. When she was waiting, Zhaoning had not yet entered the palace. How did she know so quickly that Zhaoning would definitely enter the palace today? Palace looking for her?

Being in the palace, why did he know so quickly that the person entrusted to him outside the palace had been found?

She acted meticulously and secretly, so why did she leave such a big handle? "

At the end, Shen Xihe's eyes swept over the admirer. Shen Xihe didn't mention the person who was following him outside the house. Since this person has silenced him, is it because the admirer in front of him is admiring her that he is not exposing himself?

As long as she is determined to silence this person as well, if there is no physical evidence, Shen Xihe will suspect her, so why not just convict her?

After hearing this, Emperor Youning also felt suspicious, and Shen Xihe was the one who suffered, so he ordered Cui Jinbai: "Let Cui Qing thoroughly investigate this matter."

"I take orders." Cui Jinbai bowed.

"Zhaoning, I'm tired." Emperor Youning comforted Shen Xihe again, "If you encounter this kind of thing again in the future, just go to the palace to find me, and I will make the decision for you."

"Zhaoning thanked His Majesty."

Emperor Youning personally stopped Shen Xihe's arm: "You have passed through the gate of hell, so you don't need to be too polite. You can go back to the mansion for recuperation. If you need any medicine, you can come to the palace to get it."

Shen Xihe thanked again.

Emperor Youning suddenly said: "When Zhaoning first arrived in the capital, someone repeatedly provoked and murdered you. It was my negligence. I sent two female historians to serve you. Whoever dares to disrespect you in the future will be punished by them on my behalf."

Shen Xihe's eyes flickered slightly, his complexion remained unchanged, and he accepted with a smile: "Your Majesty loves Zhaoning, and Zhaoning is flattered. From now on, I will be able to rely on the two female historians."

When Shen Xihe went out of the palace, he brought with him two female historians who were about fifty years old, both of whom were old people in the palace. These two female historians were not ordinary court ladies, but they only took care of the affairs of the empress in the harem.

Many people have wild imaginations because of the origins of these two female historians. Some people say that Emperor Youning planned to make Shen Xihe happy for the unconscious Xiao Huayong. The most outrageous thing is that Emperor Youning planned to hire Shen Xihe as the middle palace. Xihe enters the palace.

Shen Xihe didn't pay attention to the rumors outside, she knew that these two were sent by Emperor Youning to monitor her.

She checked Jian Nanchun and invited Cui Jinbai to check the prison, which aroused His Majesty's suspicion and vigilance.

 Mushroom xun is the ancient name for mushrooms
