After wearing a book, the sickly tyrant only acts like a spoiled child in my arms

Chapter 239 The Truth
It doesn't matter if you can't find a second person who smells the fragrance.

You can bring anyone with you.

The reason why this request was agreed was because Su Jiu'er had to find a second person to confirm the existence of the strange fragrance that Yan Yunxiao said.

Today's rain was extraordinarily heavy, and even if there were traces of a strange fragrance, it would have been washed away by the rain.

If you can't find any traces, you can't prove it, so a second person is needed to prove the existence of the strange fragrance.

Physician Xia glanced at King Qi, but King Qi focused on Su Jiuer.

Su Jiuer said, "His Royal Highness Qi, please invite all the palace servants who are within eight steps away from His Majesty to come up for today's grand ceremony?"

He pursed his lips and said nothing, but he had already waved his hands to clean up, and the general guard went to call someone.

Not long after, six people were brought in, besides the maid who carried the tray, there was also the ceremony officer who read out.

They didn't dare to raise their heads when they entered the main hall, they all knelt down tremblingly, waiting for questioning.

In particular, there was a little court lady who buried her head much deeper in others. With Su Jiu'er's understanding of psychology, she quickly noticed her.

The old prime minister asked, "You are so close to His Majesty, did you ask about any strange aroma?"

They stepped forward to answer one by one, and then bowed their bodies and knelt back to their original places after speaking.

Everyone's answer was that they hadn't heard it.

Doctor Xia said, "Madam Su, the old minister has practiced medicine for more than 50 years and has never made a wrong diagnosis. Hysteria is hallucinations without knowing it. The strange fragrance that His Majesty mentioned probably comes from his hysterical hallucinations."

He once again used the qualifications of the old calendar to heighten the persuasiveness of his views.

The old prime minister couldn't help but frowned silently, as if he was very unwilling to see such a result, but facing the medical skills of Imperial Physician Xia, they laymen had no way to argue.

However, Su Jiu'er had already stepped down from the small steps, and walked in front of the maid who seemed to be the least timid.

"No, someone is lying between you."

King Qi frowned. From his position, he could only see Su Jiu'er's back.

Su Jiu'er squatted down in front of the maid, and said, "Don't be afraid, raise your head and talk to me."

"Tell me what you feel today."

The voice suddenly softened, and the bystanders could only see that she stretched out her hand and lifted the little maid's chin, making the little maid look directly at her.

It's just that the little maid was too timid, so she was forced to raise her head and look at Su Jiu'er tremblingly, then shifted her gaze away in panic and guilt, and only silently looked at the slender jade bracelet on Su Jiu'er's wrist , with a bead hanging from its head.

She has no confidence, "Slave. Slave"

The luster of the small beads was soft and soft, which inexplicably dissipated the feeling of fear in her heart, and the beads dangled and dangled in her pupils.
Before entering the palace, the guards who summoned them warned them viciously that no matter what they asked, they only needed to express their denial, and if they refused, they had to be careful about their lives and their families.

So she was forced to lie just now.

The reason why Su Jiu'er was able to hypnotize her so easily was entirely because her heart was not strong enough. She was timid and cowardly since she was a child, and her heart was not strong enough.

At this most frightening time, hearing Su Jiuer's soft comforting voice unknowingly created a basic link of security for her, so Su Jiuer easily hypnotized her.

The sense of fear dissipated, she raised her head in a daze, her gaze was a little devoid of expression, "The slave girl smelled a strong fragrance at the grand ceremony, the smell was pungent and slightly choking, and she felt chest tightness and head dizziness when she inhaled it into her lungs. gosh."

After she finished speaking, her eyes darkened again, and she lay down on the main hall wearily, motionless.

There was a commotion in the hall, and someone scolded, "It's you who said you didn't smell the strange fragrance, and it's you who smelled it. Are you telling the truth or a lie!"

After being yelled out like this, the little palace maid woke up a little bit.She trembled, raised her head in panic and glanced around, then knelt back in fear.

What's the matter, why do the adults look at her with such eyes?
She shrank to the side of another maid, and heard the maid frowned and said in a low voice, "What nonsense were you talking about just now, did you really smell the fragrance? When Concubine Su asked, why did you say everything."

Their whispers were overshadowed by the debates of the officials in the hall, and only the two of them could hear them.

The little maid was stunned, when did she tell the truth?

Going to see Empress Concubine Su again, she saw a smile on her lips, and she nodded slightly at her.

She waved to her, "Don't be afraid, come to me, if you have any unspeakable secrets, you can tell me."

Before entering the main hall, the military guard had already spoken harsh words in front of them, and now that the truth had been told, would the military guard spare her life?Seeing those fierce eyes pressing towards her, she was terrified in her heart.

It is said that Concubine Su is reasonable and has no bad news, so maybe her life can be saved.

Thinking about it again, she knelt and crawled towards Su Jiu'er, crying out in fear.

"Concubine Su, be careful!"

"When the slaves came in, someone warned us that no matter what we asked, we would just say it."

"what!"

Seeing that it was almost impossible to hide it, the military guard quietly threw out a small flying knife, and stabbed straight at the little maid's neck!

It's beyond self-control to play such a trick under the nose of General Dou Hu!
The sharp sword was out of its sheath, and he threw it over decisively. The blade passed by the maid's back, and directly bounced the flying knife, and then the sword was inserted obliquely at the maid's feet.

If it wasn't for Su Jiu'er's quick reaction, grabbing the maid's arm in front and pulling it, I'm afraid that the flying knife would hit her ear and cut a hole.

The maid let out a scream in fright, her face was already pale, and her face was covered with tears.

She turned her head stiffly and saw the sword that was only a finger away from her leg. She rolled her eyes and passed out.

General Douhu walked up to the sword majestically and pulled it out, then asked King Qi in a cold voice, "Using a sharp weapon in the Longhua Palace, is it to assassinate the ministers or His Majesty?"

Except for General Douhu and General Ziling, no one has the privilege of holding a sword to go to the temple. What did this act just now do?

This shuttle was also unexpected by King Qi.

It must be that the military guard saw that there was a mistake in what he explained, so he came up with such a bad plan out of desperation.

If the court lady was really allowed to speak out, the scene would probably be over.

King Qi's mind was also spinning fast, and he also guessed the whole story at the moment, and couldn't help but angrily scolded, "Where are the thieves who dare to commit murder in front of this king, why don't they drag it down and behead it!"

The military guard already realized that he was acting outrageously, and when he was about to quibble with a howl, he was quickly dragged down.

"Boom."

The muffled sound of a head falling to the ground resounded outside the hall.

No one could stop it in time.

In the words of the court lady just now, there is something strange everywhere.

Looking at King Qi's lightning-fast momentum, one knows that this is killing people.
