Bianjing little doctor

Chapter 706 Finale Sixteen
In the middle of the night, the sound of clappers spread to the eardrums through the courtyards.

The sky was overwhelmed by black clouds, and it was pitch black all around, so calm that it seemed that no storm was coming.

Funing Hall was brightly lit.

Li Fu bowed, and cautiously stepped forward to report, "The sage, the prime ministers and ministers are all waiting outside the palace gate, and they want to meet the officials..."

Cao Yushang was silent for a moment, his face pale.

"At this time, the palace gate cannot be opened."

Li Fu glanced at her, "Don't let the officials see the officials, I'm afraid it will cause trouble..."

Cao Yushang lowered his eyes and rubbed his forehead, "Go, tell the Prime Minister in private, let them wait until dawn, when the palace gate opens, and then enter the palace to meet the saint."

"Yes."

It was very quiet in Funing Hall.

Cao Yushang was silent for a long time, then suddenly turned his head and looked at Gao Miao who was sitting silently, "Did Miss Zhang just say that there is something strange about the official's death?"

Gao Miao lowered her eyes, "It's true. Eleven said, I'm afraid someone poisoned..."

Cao Yuzhang tightened his palms and frowned, "You are so courageous. Someone actually moved his hands and feet into the palace. Hongyun..."

The maid standing by the side immediately stepped forward, "The servant girl is here."

Cao Yushang said, "Where are all the concubines?"

Hong Yun said: "Kneel and pray for the officials in the outer hall."

Cao Yushang thought for a while, "Let those who have been to Funing Hall today gather in the inner hall."

"Yes."

Hong Yun responded and went down to do errands. Cao Yushang didn't know what to think, and suddenly turned to Gao Miao and said, "Go and find Xin Yi. You go in person and comfort her. The incident happened suddenly tonight, and she was wronged."

The emperor passed away suddenly, and Cao Yushang had not yet passed away. All the medical officials were disgusted, and Xin Yi was no exception, and they were all detained.

Gao Miao's brows and eyes moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but finally bowed his head silently.

·
Xin Yi was very calm.

What happened tonight was not sudden, she was mentally prepared, but Zhao Zhen's death still surprised her a little.She is a niece, and it is not easy to get close to the emperor. In order to be able to arrive in time when Zhao Zhen needs it, she specially changed into a male palace and stayed with the medical officers.

But there is no way to prevent it. A person who is fine at dinner will get sick when he is asleep.

The entire course of the disease was too fast, and there was no possibility of rescue.

Previously, Xin Yi discovered that the imperial dining room used a warming and tonic diet, and the medicine Zhao Zhen took contained dampness-removing and detoxifying ingredients. He specially adjusted the diet and prescriptions for him, and his body has recovered. accidental.

Xin Yi followed Gao Miao into the palace with doubts, saw Cao Yushang, and saluted respectfully.

"What does the saint want from me?"

"Little lady is here." Cao Yushang said gently: "If all the people who have been to Funing Palace today are present, can you help me identify which one is the poisoner?"

Xin Yi glanced at Cao Yushang and hesitated.

After all, she was also guarded as a suspect just now.

"Your wife can give it a try, but if you make a mistake, I hope the sage will forgive you."

Cao Yushang nodded, "I believe in you."

·
In the side hall, a group of people bowed their heads and stood upright.

The sage was present, and everyone from the maids to the servants held their breaths and concentrated.

Whoever is charged with killing the official family is the crime of skin cramping and killing the whole family...

Xin Yi's eyes were slightly cold, and he quietly swept over their heads, and said again: "Stretch out your hand..."

Everyone stretched out their hands.

Xin Yi: "Look up."

What she says, everyone does.

Xin Yi looked at everyone carefully, from expressions to body movements, and shook his head at Cao Yushang: "Sage, my wife can't tell."

Cao Yushang pursed his lips, "Li Fu, is everyone here?"

Li Fu bowed his body, wishing he could lie down on the ground, "It's all here, here..."

Before the voice fell, he raised his head again, "The little princess came here today, and the official family played with her for a while."

Cao Yushang's expression changed slightly, just as he was about to say bring Zhou Yiliu's mother and daughter in, Xin Yi shook his head.

"Saint, you won't be able to ask Mrs. Zhou. Why don't you just tell the little princess and send someone to observe Mrs. Zhou? Ask the mother and daughter separately?"

Cao Yushang accepted Xin Yi's suggestion.

After a while, the little princess was led in by the maid.

Cao Yushang sent the maid away, and summoned the little princess over with a pleasing expression, "Talk to your empress, what did the emperor say to you today, what did you play with?"

The child is young, but she can sense the atmosphere in the palace. She was a little nervous at first, but the empress in her eyes was very close, so she lost her guard and started to speak sentence by sentence.

After finishing speaking, Xin Yi double-checked the details again.

"You said, Mrs. Zhou told you not to rub your eyes or wipe your nose?"

The little princess nodded, "Mother said that Daddy will like me only if I love to be clean..."

Xin Yi asked: "Then after you returned to the palace, did Mrs. Zhou ask you to take a bath and wash your little hands carefully? Did you wash them once and again?"

The little princess opened her eyes wide, "How do you know?"

Xin Yi didn't answer her, and smiled, "Because I can guess, did Mrs. Zhou take all the little clothes you changed to wash..."

The little princess looked at her innocently, "You are so smart, I like to play guessing games with you..."

Xin Yi turned around and nodded to Cao Yuzhang.

Cao Yushang's expression remained unchanged: "Red Rain, bring the little princess to the Palace of Kunning."

The little princess's smile froze on her lips, she pursed her mouth whether she wanted to cry or not, "I don't want to go to the Kunning Palace, I want to go back to the palace to accompany my mother... I don't want to go to the Kunning Palace, the Kunning Palace is where the tigress lives place……"

Cao Yushang: "Take it away!"

The little princess was carried away, outside the palace, Zhou Yiliu was with a group of concubines, kneeling on the futon to pray for the official family, when he heard the little princess was taken away crying and fussing, his face turned ashen.

"Zhou Jieyu, the saint is here to invite you."

The father-in-law in charge walked up to him and sighed.

Zhou Yi Liudang even got up, looked at her daughter and chased after her.

"What are you doing? You put down my daughter..."

"Disobedient." The father-in-law's face sank, and he motioned to the two guards, "Drag away."

Zhou Yiliu was forcibly dragged in front of Cao Yushang by two guards, seeing Xin Yi by her side, her expression changed.

"It was you, and you framed me again, right? I have no grudges with you, why did you put me to death..."

The lights flickered.

The room was dead.

Xin Yi looked at her motionless, without pity or sympathy, she was like a bystander and recorder of a story, watching all this silently.

Cao Yushang listened to Zhou Yiliu's crying, put his hands on the chair, his face was as indifferent as a sculpture.No one knew how much Zhao Zhen's death had affected her. They were husband and wife for decades, but she was very calm, so calm that Xin Yi couldn't help but feel admiration.

Cao Yuzhang seemed born for the throne of queen,

When the sky fell, she was still able to stick to her duties as a queen, what to do, what not to do, she followed the rules from beginning to end, and she was not emotional.

"Haven't pleaded guilty yet?"

Cao Yushang's voice was shallow and faint, listening carefully, it was a little hoarse and tired.She must have been tired after doing this for so long, she closed her eyes, she didn't even ask Zhou Yiliu why she did that, let alone the details of the matter, she just let out a long sigh.

"It's self-inflicted, you can't live! Hongyun."

Hong Yun stepped forward, and in the tray were three feet of white silk, a pair of scissors, and a glass of poisoned wine.

Cao Yuzhang looked at Zhou Yiliu's stunned expression, and said lightly:
"This is the last dignity for you, choose yourself."

Zhou Yiliu fell to the ground.

No one forced her, just look at her like that.She even saw sympathy in Cao Yushang's eyes.

Ah!
Knowing that the situation was over, Zhou Yiliu swallowed her saliva, straightened up slowly, and sat on her feet, stroking the three items on the tray with her pointed fingers, with a low voice.

"Aren't you going to ask me why I did this?"

Cao Yushang: "Go to the palace of the king of hell and explain to the king of hell."

Zhou Yi Liuba raised his head.

If something is blocked in my heart and I don't speak out, even if I die, I don't feel at ease.

Those grievances, those hatreds, what can't be said up to now?

She smiled coldly, "I hate officials...just secondly. He no longer treats me as a human being, and he gave me a decent life. I hate him, but I am also grateful to him. He died and treated me well. What good..."

Having said that, she sharpened her gaze and stared at Xin Yi.

"And you, and Fu Jiuqu... are my most heart-wrenching hatred and the reason why I must do it."

She stared at Xin Yi resentfully, with a smile on her lips.

"Someone gave me the package of medicine and told me that as long as Fu Jiuqu's case occurs, the official will be poisoned to death. As long as the official is dead, his case will be over... At that time, he will be finished, and you will also be killed." It's over, you're all over... Hahahaha..."

"Is it Zhang Xun?" Xin Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, "I thought he was coercing you. I couldn't figure out why you would do such a thing for him when he was already dead. Once you said that, I understood .”

Zhou Yiliu smiled softly.

"Understood, it's too late. Miss Zhang, seeing your proud appearance in the past is more uncomfortable than letting me die... Fortunately, you will soon follow in my footsteps... Even if the official is alive, he can't protect you." Stay with you, let alone the official's death?"

Xin Yi: "Why are you bothering?"

The cold wind brushed Zhou Yiliu's long hair, her smile was like a ghost.

"A few years in the cold palace made me live like I am now...All of this is thanks to you...Why? I can't get anything, so how can you be happy? I am a helpless Orphan girl, I can hold you back, it is very cost-effective... you say, right?"

She fixed her eyes on Xin Yi faintly, and smiled horribly.

Xin Yi looked at her quietly, "It's a pity, I'm afraid you are going to miscalculate. If you die, I will live a good life. My brother Jiu, our children, and I are a happy family. Pity your daughter. You have no father and no mother, and you have to follow the old path of your own mother... Are you very angry when you hear this?"

Zhou Yiliu was originally sitting on the ground, looking proud of getting revenge, but when he heard this, he was startled, and rushed towards Xin Yi like crazy.

"Death will drag you to hell, I will die with you..."

Xin Yi grabbed her arm, and with a little force, Zhou Yiliu fell to the ground.

"Being overestimated." Xin Yi sneered coldly, and Zhou Yiliu burst into tears.

Cao Yushang's brain ached from the noise, and he sighed, "Give her a favor."

The two women stepped forward in response, picked up the three-foot white silk, and wrapped it around Zhou Yiliu's neck.

A faint spark burst from the candle.

Xin Yi watched Zhou Yiliu go from grinning grinningly to falling to the ground in embarrassment, and sighed almost imperceptibly.

"Saint." She saluted Cao Yushang, "Can I leave the palace?"

Cao Yuzhang looked at her and smiled slightly, "The gate of the palace has long been locked, and there are all ministers outside the gate who want to enter the palace to face the saints. I still have to think about how to deal with it. The situation is pressing now. If I want to wrong you, stay in the palace first. Wait until things calm down."

The death of the emperor and the ascension of the new emperor is an extremely sensitive time.

Xin Yi ignored Cao Yushang's concerns and nodded, "It's all up to the sage."

"Also..." Cao Yushang glanced at Zhou Yiliu's body, "This matter is about the princess, this matter must be kept secret, and no news of it may be revealed."

There is one more secret of the palace.

Xin Yi, "My wife understands."

Only then did Cao Yushang call Hongxiang over, "Take the lady to rest for a while."
