Chapter 109 Questioning
Regardless of whether Su Nanyi can identify it or not, she will poison it again.
If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.
No matter what, Su Nanyi must not be allowed to give birth to the child.
When her child is born, he will be the Empress's legitimate son and the future crown prince.
If Su Nanyi's child became the crown prince, then it would be harder than climbing to the sky for her child to stand out among the many illegitimate sons and compete with the crown prince.
So her child's rivals must be strangled in the cradle.
Not only Li Yuzhu thought so, but Ji Chuxue too.
They had lived in the palace for several months and were well aware of the principles involved, so she took action as well.
Su Nanyi didn't expect them to act so quickly. When the dinner was served, she found something wrong with the food.
She snorted coldly. These people really can't wait. She said to Mo Lian, "Go and call the emperor over and let him come and see what good things his good women have done.
Oh, and ask him to call the imperial physician, so that he won’t think that I put the poison in it myself and framed his women.”
Mo Lian was also very angry. Her master had just returned and poisoned again. The person who poisoned was really looking for death. When she found the person, she would make sure to make him eat poison every day.
If she only knew how to poison you, then let her eat her fill.
She hurried to call Ling Xiao, and met him halfway. He came to have dinner with Su Nanyi.
After hearing this, Ling Xiao was so furious that he hurried to Fengqi Palace.
"Yier, have you eaten?"
Ling Xiao rushed in and asked nervously.
When Su Nanyi heard this name again, she almost vomited, but fortunately she hadn't eaten anything yet.
She swallowed, suppressed the nausea in her heart, and said sarcastically: "No, how dare I eat the food in this palace? Of course, I have to test it for safety before I dare to use it."
"That's good!"
Ling Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. He didn't take Su Nanyi's ridicule to heart. He immediately ordered Eunuch Wei: "Hurry up and investigate with me. Let An Yi go with you. Let me find out who is so bold. I will kill all his clans."
Su Nanyi rolled her eyes after hearing this. Is there any need to investigate this? Wasn't it those women who did it? He even wanted to kill all nine generations of her family. It was too early to make such big talk.
If it was Li Yuzhu who did it, would he kill her as well? He was willing to do that, because she was the apple of his eye.
A concubine suddenly became someone with a higher position than Yun Yuerou.
However, seeing him so angry made me feel a little better.
No matter whether he is pretending or is sincere, it can still scare some people.
After Ling Xiao gave the order, he asked Eunuch Wei to go back to the imperial kitchen to bring back dinner.
Eunuch Wei was so busy that his legs were almost running as fast as flying feathers.
He first asked An Yi and the others to investigate, and then he went to the imperial kitchen to get the meal himself.
After receiving the order, An Yi immediately took the Royal Guards to investigate.
The investigation led to the discovery of the palace maid that Hongyu was looking for, but when they found her, she had already died in her room.
The cause of death was suicide by swallowing silver.
Dark One...
The same thing happened to Ji Chuxue. When An Yi found a eunuch, the eunuch had already jumped into the well.
An Yi immediately reported the investigation results to Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao was so angry that he thought he could easily find the murderer, but he didn't expect that it was two dead palace maids who had no sense of existence in the palace. He couldn't even find the mastermind behind the scenes.
"boom!"
He punched the stone pillar hard and said angrily, "Who is so bold? How dare you openly poison the palace."
Afterwards, he killed the witnesses to silence them, so that he couldn't investigate. This shows that this man is very thoughtful and skilled.
Suddenly he thought of Li Yuzhu and Yun Yuerou, who were Su Nanyi's old rivals and had never gotten along with each other.
Especially Li Yuzhu.
Ling Xiao comforted Su Nanyi and left in a hurry without even having dinner.
Su Nanyi curled her lips at his hurried back, probably because he knew who poisoned him.
There's no point in looking for them now. If they had left evidence, they wouldn't have killed them to silence them.
In the Liuli Palace, Li Yuzhu heard that the truth had been revealed and that the cause had been traced back to the dead palace maid. She pretended to remain calm and instructed Hongyu not to reveal any flaws.
Now Li Yuzhu has no confidence to face Ling Xiao. She used to be spoiled, but now there are so many beauties in the palace, and any one of them is more important than her.
If Ling Xiao really finds out that she did it, he will definitely not let her off easily.
Hongyu trembled with fear when she heard this. She never thought that An Yi had found out about the palace maid so quickly. If she hadn't had foresight, she would have killed the palace maid long ago.
It is estimated that the investigation has been traced back to her. Even if she was instructed by Li Yuzhu, she will still have to take the blame in the end.
She said nervously, "Yes, I know. I am not nervous."
Li Yuzhu raised her hand and slapped her: "Why are you so scared? Are you afraid that others don't know it was you who did it? Stay calm. Looking at you like this, it's useless to train in the base. You should go back to the base tomorrow."
"Yes, I will go back tomorrow."
Hongyu would rather go back to the base for training again than stay in this palace. This palace is like a den of dragons and tigers, full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will fall into an irretrievable situation and lose your life.
"Your Highness, the Emperor is here."
As the two were talking, a nanny came to report.
Li Yuzhu kicked Hongyu, and Hongyu quickly stood up, then stood beside her and took a deep breath to calm herself down.
Ling Xiao rushed in angrily and saw the master and servant chatting.
"You go down."
Ling Xiao looked at Li Yuzhu and pointed at Hongyu.
"Yes, this slave has withdrawn."
Hongyu fled from the bedroom as if escaping.
"I, my concubine, come to see the Emperor."
Seeing Ling Xiao's dark face, Li Yuzhu tactfully bowed.
Yunxiao looked at Li Yuzhu solemnly: "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Yuzhu thanked him very easily, then stood in front of Ling Xiao and looked at him steadily.
"Why don't you tell me something?"
Li Yuzhu asked in confusion: "What did this concubine say to the emperor?"
"Don't pretend to be scheming with me. Was it you who did what happened in Fengqi Palace today?"
How could Li Yuzhu admit it? Her face turned pale, as if she had suffered a great injustice. She looked at Ling Xiao very sadly: "Why does Your Majesty think that I did it? Your Majesty has no evidence and just came to question me for no reason. Aren't you afraid of hurting my feelings?"
If it were in the past, Ling Xiao would definitely hold her in his arms and comfort her, but now he only feels disgust.
He asked coldly, "Do you have a heart?"
Li Yuzhu bit her lip: "How can I be heartless?"
