Tease the medical concubine, the prince has been chasing

Chapter 59
In the imperial study room, the emperor walked back and forth restlessly, and when Eunuch Zhu saw this, he presented the green card.

"Your majesty, all the empresses in the palace have prepared things for you to soothe your nerves. Are you going to that empress's palace tonight?"

"When these women see me, they cry and cry. They are very annoying. Don't go!"

When Eunuch Zhu heard the words, he was about to remove the green card, but the emperor suddenly raised his hand to stop it.

The emperor pondered for a moment: "Showing Shuning Palace, I would like to see what kind of good things Concubine Shu is doing on weekdays!"

Seeing that the emperor was in a very unhappy mood, Eunuch Zhu didn't dare to say anything, so he had to follow the emperor and hurried to Shuning Palace.

"Imperial Concubine, Your Majesty... The Emperor has come suddenly!" Chunlan saw the emperor's sedan chair from a distance, and ran to inform Concubine Shu in a panic.

Concubine Shu was overjoyed when she heard the emperor coming, she quickly packed up her appearance, and went to the door to pick him up: "The emperor will be in the palace of concubines for many days, do you want to be concubines today?"

There was no expression of joy or anger on the emperor's face, and he calmly withdrew his servants: "Has Concubine Shu been to Prince Ning's Mansion recently?"

The emperor's fingers tapped the table again and again, which was very clear in the silent room.

Concubine Shu felt faintly uneasy, and felt that the emperor seemed to be beating her every time: "Ning Han has been the same as usual recently, but the concubine heard that the buried princess was very restless..."

Before he finished speaking, the emperor raised his hand and slapped Concubine Shu.

Everything happened too fast, Concubine Shu covered her face, looked at the emperor in horror and said:
"What does the emperor mean by this? If the concubine has any dissatisfaction, the emperor can speak out directly."

"I ask you, how did the iron nails in Ning Han's legs come from?"

Concubine Shu knew that today was the day Tang Xueyao entered the palace, and it must be this woman who brought the matter to the emperor.

"I don't know..." Concubine Shu was on the verge of tears, "Your Majesty, you also know that Ning Han has never been very close to his concubines, and every time he went to Ning's mansion, his concubines were rejected by him. I really don't know!"

"I don't know?" The emperor snorted coldly, "It's full of nonsense! I entrusted Ning Han to your upbringing, not for you to torture him like this!"

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth in her heart.

After so many years, the emperor still misses that woman, otherwise he wouldn't be angry with him today because of Ning Han's matter.

Back then, when they entered the palace together, they obviously had the same family background, so why did she win the favor with one trick, and she was still wasting her youth in the lonely deep palace?
If it wasn't for power, why would she help others raise their children and make trouble for her own?
"Your Majesty, the concubines have always treated Ning Han as their own, and even used their own gold and silver jewelry to subsidize Prince Ning's mansion. The concubines also have children. How could they be cruel to make Ning Han suffer so much?" Concubine Shu's hazy eyes were blindfolded. A layer of mist concealed the thoughts in his heart.

The emperor's face softened a little.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu said again: "Your Majesty, you also know Ning Han's temper. He is a stubborn person. I'm afraid... I'm afraid he asked his servants to do this."

"Shut up!" The emperor rubbed his brows, "Ning Hanhan has fallen to such a point, no matter how you say it, you are to blame. From today onwards, you will be confined to Shuning Palace and copy scriptures to pray for Ning Han." !"

The past has always been a knot in the emperor's heart, and every time he hears it mentioned by others, his heart feels like a knife has been gouged out.

That's his own son...

After the emperor left, Concubine Shu was sitting on the cold ground with venomous eyes.

The reason she found a funeral princess for Ning Han was to show her benevolence.

The reason why she looked down was because she felt that small households were easy to manage, but she didn't expect to find such a Tang Xueyao, which made her so worried.

You have to die sooner or later, so it's better to solve this trouble as soon as possible!Concubine Shu thought bitterly in her heart.

It is a great honor for the whole family to be buried with the prince. The world is so big, is she still worried that she can't find a second one?
……

In the early morning of the next day, the emperor's eyes were dark because of what happened last night, but he still sat early in the imperial study and tried the case of Tang Xueyao's death by selling counterfeit medicine in person.

Qian Zhong from Shuntian Mansion, Yu Shi Ji Yuan, and Lan Jiang, the head of the Imperial Hospital, stood quietly aside, waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Master Qian, tell me what's going on."

The emperor's sharp eyes scanned the crowd, and he spoke quietly.

When Qian Zhong came to the hall, he saluted first, and respectfully explained the whole story clearly and clearly.

"Where is Zhou Yao?"

Qian Zhong gave a look behind him, and Zhou Yao walked to the front of the hall with a look of grief.

Tang Xueyao was startled, isn't this the number dealer Lao Zhou who bought and sold accounts in Baicaotang some time ago?
"Your Majesty is Shengming, Caomin is just such a daughter. She thought it was just a cold syndrome, but she died after taking the strange pill prescribed by Baicaotang, and asked the emperor to make decisions for the people."

Eunuch Zhu, who was standing aside, stepped forward and put the pill in Zhou Yao's hand on the emperor's desk.

The emperor stroked his beard and looked at the pill carefully: "This medicine is really unusual."

The emperor waved his hand, and Lan Jiang from the Imperial Hospital also stepped forward, put the pill in front of his eyes, looked at it carefully, put it under the tip of his nose and smelled it, and then crushed it with his fingers.

"Your Majesty, this pill has a strange taste and a special shape. I am an ignorant minister. I have been a doctor for many years, but I have never seen it before."

There were three pills in the hall, no more, no less, and Lan Jiang and the others had a lot to do with the prince. Tang Xueyao guessed that this pill was brought back by the prince at fifty silver when he came to the mansion for medical treatment.

"Princess Ning, please explain what this medicine is about." The emperor's expression was not good.

Tang Xueyao straightened her expression, and said calmly: "Returning to the emperor, first of all, Zhou Yao's daughter has never been treated in my Baicaotang at the age of one, and this is the medical record. Please read it to the emperor."

The emperor looked through it carefully, but didn't say much.

"Secondly, I made this pill myself. It is extracted from several medicinal materials such as cinnamon sticks and ephedra. Open the coffin and do an autopsy to find out why Sui Sui died."

Qian Zhong took a step forward: "Your Majesty, at the age of one year, the lips turned black and the fingernails turned purple. It is undoubtedly poisoned."

"There are several types of poisoning. Some are due to the conflicting properties of the medicines, and some are due to the accumulation of toxins in your own body. After being stimulated by the medicines, this leads to death. Dare I ask Mr. Qian, what kind of poison did you get this year?"

"Princess Ning is just talking nonsense. If this pill is not poisonous, why did my daughter die after taking just one pill?" Zhou Yao was very emotional.

Seeing Zhou Yao like this, Qian Zhong quickly scolded loudly: "Zhou Yao, this is not Shuntian Mansion, don't be presumptuous in front of the emperor!"

Zhou Yao was shocked all over, and closed his mouth embarrassingly.

"In that case, let's find a dog and give it a try. This medicine is poisonous and not poisonous, so it will be clear?" Lan Jiang stepped forward and said.

The emperor nodded.

With the approval of the emperor, a young eunuch quickly brought an old yellow dog and stuffed the pill in Na Lanjiang's hand into the dog's mouth.

I saw that the old yellow dog was fine at first, but within half an hour, it suddenly fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, twitching all over, and fell silent after a while.

How could this be?
A pill made of fairy grass has only a healing effect, so how could it be poisonous?
Lord Qian narrowed his eyes, and caught the panic and disbelief on Tang Xueyao's face.

Zhou Yao started yelling from the side: "Dead! The yellow dog is dead! Princess Ning, you will pay for my daughter's life!"

Disappointment appeared vaguely on the emperor's face.

"There are all witnesses and material evidence. It is a matter of royal face. Please let the emperor decide." Qian Zhong took a step forward, looked at Tang Xueyao proudly, and raised his tone slightly.

Zhou Yao fell to his knees again: "Your Majesty, although this Concubine Ning is just a buried concubine, she is greedy for money and murders people's lives. Your Majesty must not let her go lightly!"

"Princess Ning, do you have anything else to say?" The emperor looked at Tang Xueyao, hoping she could give a reasonable explanation.
