The cold wind all night blows away the heavy dark clouds in the sky, and the bright sun hangs high in the blue sky, casting strands of bright light, dazzling the eyes.

The clear sky did not have a trace of white clouds, and the whole sky was clear and bright. Such a clear weather infected everyone's mood.

The heaviness, panic, and anxiety of last night disappeared without a trace, and in exchange for everyone's happy mood.

Duanmu Minya's improvement made everyone in the cell feel better, and those wives who were also nervous all night finally felt relieved after learning that Duanmu Minya was fine.

It was only after such a relaxation that they felt tired. Their spirits had already been tense last night, and now as soon as they relaxed, they were immediately tired, and they all went back to catch up on sleep.

Even Xia Jin and the others were tired and fell asleep lying on the bedside. For the sweet dreams of everyone in the cell, the guards outside the cell were severely drilled. It was punishment for their ineffective protection. However, because of what happened last night, they worked harder and strictly checked anyone's entry and exit. Food was strictly inspected no matter how familiar someone was. They didn't have that face to have an accident.

When the time comes, there will be no punishment from above, and they will commit suicide in shame.

The guards punished themselves for making mistakes, but Xuanyuan Qingtian and the others had to punish themselves.

why?

It's because it's been two days and they haven't found any clues yet, and the clues have been dealt with one by one, making it impossible for them to follow up.

However, Xuanyuan Yiyu brought an important news.

"Brother Sanhuang, I checked the cause of Empress Li's death. She was indeed poisoned to death, but the poison was not a 'flash in the pan'."

"Ah! Isn't it a 'flash in the pan'? How come?"

Song Yichen asked in astonishment, you know, 'flash in the pan' is the most colorless and odorless, and the easiest poison to infect, and it won't be discovered by others, but why not 'flash in the pan'?

If the same person is poisoning, how can it be difficult to give up easy?

God!Wasn't it the same group of people, but the death of Concubine Li was just a coincidence?

That person just expanded the matter by the way?God, if this is the case, they are looking in the completely wrong direction.

Yes, no matter what, let's deal with the princess first.

Song Yichen frowned and expressed his doubts.

As soon as his words fell, Xuanyuan Qingtian's calm breathing was suffocated, and his whole body was shocked, yes, why didn't he think of it?

It seems that they pursued the scope too broadly. The emperor's intention now is to find out who murdered the concubine Li, but they focused on who wanted to frame the palace and put the palace to death.

While their goals are the same, their focus is now misplaced.

Now they only need to find out what kind of poison Li Concubine Empress is poisoned by, and what people called it, and as long as they find evidence to prove that it is not what the palace said, then they can rescue the princess and others.

After that, they can slowly find out who is the last instigator?

But there is one more thing, since the poisons used are not the same, it means that there are two groups of people here. It just so happened that Concubine Li had an attack after returning from the palace, which gave the person who originally wanted to frame the palace a chance to take advantage of it. Point the finger at the palace.

After Xuanyuan Qingtian's analysis and Song Yifu's and Xuanyuan Yiyu's discussions, they quickly made up their mind to start the investigation from the palace.

Because the biggest problem is Concubine Li's favor, the people who want to get rid of Concubine Li must be people in the palace, and they are still afraid that Concubine Li's favor will threaten her.

After such a discussion, they immediately split up to investigate. Song Yichen went to investigate the source of the toxin. He knew best which person was good at all kinds of poisons.

As for Xuanyuan Qingtian and Xuanyuan Yiyu, they went to the palace to find out with whom Concubine Li had feuded with during this time, so whose motive was the greatest.

Of course, this is not absolute, and there are friends on the surface, but behind you is the easiest to stab you, and you will least doubt it, and it is also the least easy for you to guard against.

Start with enemies and friends first, and gradually expand the scope. Both Xuanyuan Qingtian and Xuanyuan Yiyu grew up in the palace of intrigue. Such things are seen a lot, and it is easier to track down.

In this way, under their side-talking, strict cross-examination, and coercion, they found a clue for them.

An important clue.

It turned out that the Empress Li Fei said that she would have a meal with the emperor that day?

But that night was the best time for Li Fei to conceive, why would she know the best time to get pregnant?

That was checked by Xuanyuan Qingtian from the records of the imperial hospital, because during this period of time, Empress Li sent an imperial doctor from the imperial hospital to the palace to diagnose her pulse every day, and also asked him a lot of prescriptions and knowledge about pregnancy.

Because Concubine Li also knew that if she hadn't given birth to a boy and a half girl for the emperor, she wouldn't be able to survive in the palace at all.

So she asked the imperial physician to calculate for her the days when she was most likely to conceive, and she wanted the emperor to favor her every day, and the meals she prepared for the emperor were also mainly for strengthening yang and nourishing kidney, and she wanted to get a man in one fell swoop.

The only ones who were afraid of concubine Li's pregnancy and being threatened were the concubines in the same high position and the pregnant concubine Zhaoyi.

The lord of the Queen's Six Palaces is famously virtuous and decent, and she treats all concubines and concubines in the underground equally, and she is also the biological mother of the current crown prince, so there is no need to do things that will harm her mother's dignity for such a small concubine Li , so she is the first to rule out.

And the second one is the imperial concubine under one person, but she also has the second prince and the sixth prince, so there is no need to deal with a concubine Li who is not yet in the limelight.

Then there are Concubine Rong, Concubine De, and Concubine Shu who are in the same position as Concubine Li.

But they also have four princes, five princes, and seven princes, and there is no need to murder someone who has no face, because their princes have grown up, and they will not be afraid of Concubine Li at all, and Concubine Li even Pregnancy may not necessarily give birth to a prince, so they can also be excluded.

And the third prince is Xuanyuan Qingtian, because his mother and concubine passed away early, but because his mother and concubine is the emperor's favorite concubine, he has always loved him and given him to be raised by the queen, so he is also considered a queen child.

The queen also dotes on him very much, sometimes even better than the prince.

However, when he was 15 years old, he accidentally heard a message from the Seventh Prince's concubine, Concubine Shu, before he secretly made up his mind, and he also got the Seventh Prince's support!
