After marrying Prince Mobei, the beauties were crazily criticized and favored crazily

"Your Majesty!" The old mother knelt on the ground, "The empress dowager's ginseng is kept by the old slave, but how can the old slave exchange for the empress dowager's stuff? The old slave has been with the empress dowager all his life, and has no children or relatives. Even if I want to exchange the empress dowager's belongings, I have to have a plan. But the old slave has kept all the valuables for the empress dowager all his life, and has never lost one. If you take out any of those gems and jades, which one is better than the old ginseng? Valuable? This old slave has never done this before, please Your Majesty to check it out.”

Empress Dowager Yang realized something, worried that the people around her would be involved, "Emperor, mama has been with the Ai family for many years, and she can even give up her life for the Ai family, so how could she exchange old ginseng for some external things? The Ai family believes her I will never do something against the master. While everyone is here, it is better to investigate thoroughly! This kind of thing is impossible for the master to do it. If the follower does it, it is better to control everyone and interrogate them one by one. "

The old mother nodded and said: "Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly, and return the old slave to his innocence."

Emperor Dongqi sat in the main seat, glanced at everyone, and said solemnly: "Check!"

Mr. Ma of the Ministry of Punishment immediately, together with Eunuch Hong from the Punishment Department, brought the imperial guards to search.

Among the people who can participate in the hunt, the tents of low-ranking officials are located far away, and many people live together, so there are too many people, so there is almost no chance to do this.

However, Emperor Dongqi said that he had searched, and he would not let any place go.

When Bai Ru was brought over, Luo Xiyao's eyes were cold, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up, "It seems that there is no need to investigate further, a maid who Jiu Niang stayed in the Shangshu Mansion can appear in the paddock, it must be something innocent. Queen Mother The place where the empress cooks the soup is near my tent, so Bai Ru must have wandered around the area a few times, and was clearly seen by the attendants and guards guarding the nearby tent."

He Lan Linzhang said: "Jiu Niang came all the way with Xiao Wang's carriage, and there was no such girl among the entourage."

Mrs. Luo's complexion was also ugly, and she said: "What's going on? Bai Ru is clearly in Tao Ran Residence. Before leaving, the steward showed the list to the courtier's wife, and Bai Ru is not in the accompanying group. Bai Ru, how did you get here? ? Are you really the one who tampered with the empress dowager's ginseng soup?"

Empress Dowager Yang snorted coldly, and said: "It's only people with shallow eyelids who will sell old ginseng for sale! I think you are going to poison the ginseng soup, thinking that you will poison Aijia to death anyway, so it's better to put the old ginseng to death." It's cheaper for you to switch out. Tell me, which black-hearted person ordered you to do such evil things?"

The second prince wondered: "Although Phytophthora chinensis is known as native ginseng, it is not something that can be dug casually on the street. How can such a girl have a well-prepared Phytophthora chinensis? What's more, the ginseng soup of the emperor's grandmother is not casual. Anyone can get in touch, if there is no internal support, how can she replace the old ginseng?"

Empress Dowager Yang said indifferently: "There are only those who can be thieves for a thousand days, and there is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. Just now the imperial physician has said that although this Phytophthora can be used for medicine, it is different from old reference. She They are going to poison the Ai family, and I must have worked hard for it."

"That's right." The old mother said, "When the maidservant is cooking the ginseng soup, the old slave will deliver the wrapped ginseng slices and medicinal materials. When delivering the medicine today, someone bumped into the old slave, but today is On the first day of hunting, the old slave knew that people everywhere were very busy, so she didn't pay attention. She thought it was at that time that she changed the medicine bag on the old slave. However... the person who bumped into the old slave was not a woman, but a Little servant."

The noble concubine showed a look of surprise: "Could it be that someone is really cooperating with her? This girl has entered the palace? Otherwise, how can the palace servants cooperate with her? Oh, she is Luo Jiuniang's girl, she will never be... Jiuniang , if you are short of money, you can just say that your majesty and empress love you so much, even if the empress is strict with you, you shouldn't be like this..."

Luo Xiyao looked at her coldly, "Your Majesty, concubine, is this going to convict me? Your Majesty and the Empress haven't spoken yet. Please remember your identity, and don't think that giving birth to a prince for Your Majesty means you can do whatever you want! The status of a noble concubine No matter how noble she is, she is still a concubine! A concubine jumps around without saying a word, isn't it nice?"

"Luo Jiuniang! Be more disciplined!" How could the second prince let his mother and concubine be trampled under by Luo Xiyao? He said loudly, "Royal father, now that the stolen goods have been stolen, Luo Jiuniang will start messing around." Get biting! Is what the concubine mother said wrong? The maid who was searched out and not on the list belongs to Luo Jiuniang, and Luo Jiuniang has lived in the palace for a long time, so there is every chance that she can buy people to work with her maidservant. The inside should cooperate with the outside."

"Father, although I haven't met Luo Jiuniang a few times, but just like that, I know her temperament of vengeance. How can a servant girl who has never passed through the palace and came from Pingcheng think of harming the emperor's grandmother?" Royal father, she must be guilty of insulting the concubine mother in such a way. The concubine mother has always respected the empress mother, but she was anxious to speak because she was worried about the health of the emperor's grandmother. Didn't Luo Jiuniang's provocation chill the concubine mother's heart?"

The imperial concubine wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, looking extremely aggrieved.

The second prince's eyes were cold, full of murderous intent, "Luo Jiuniang, your girl has been arrested, why don't you tell the truth? If you don't say anything else, you can explain to everyone how the girl who is not on the list appeared on you In the tent?"

Poisoning the Empress Dowager is a major crime of beheading.How could Mrs. Luo let Luo Jiuniang bear such a bad name?She frowned and knelt in front of Emperor Dongqi: "Your Majesty, Jiuniang's words offend the imperial concubine is also in a hurry. She is a little girl, where has she ever encountered such a terrible thing? This girl Bai Ru came to Beijing with injuries. After entering the Shangshu Mansion, she hardly ever left her home. The concierge of the Shangshu Mansion was always occupied, and her going in and out of the Shangshu Mansion was recorded. When Lord Helan came to pick up Jiuniang, Jiuniang brought only one nanny and three The servant girl and the entourage were all arranged by Lord Helan. When the courtiers left the mansion with the lord, there was no such girl in the team. I also ask His Majesty to ask someone to go to the Shangshu Mansion to find out exactly when this girl left the mansion. Before the matter is fully investigated, please don't wrong the good people and let the bad people go."

This matter was obviously aimed at Luo Xiyao.

Of course, Mrs. Luo knew whether Bai Ru was in the team or not.

Mrs. Luo took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the matter of witchcraft dolls in Shangshu's mansion has not yet been investigated, and it is possible to bury such terrible things in the mansion silently. It's not difficult. As the Empress Dowager said, there are only those who can be thieves for a thousand days, and there is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. This person can always think of a way to harm Jiu Niang. A girl who did not exist in the team suddenly appeared and almost killed her Empress Dowager, there must be an ulterior conspiracy in this!"

Luo Shangshu knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please observe clearly."
