The ugly concubine of the foolish king

Chapter 59, the night trial of the dungeon of the Five Princes' Mansion, Li Si and Liu Dou, huddled in the corner, wondering what kind of result awaits them.

Shang Qing'er limped her leg, walked to the cell with Butler Mo, and ordered Li Si and Liu Dou to be brought out.

"Butler Mo, are these people reliable?" Shang Qing'er spoke softly to Butler Mo when those people were mentioning them.

"Don't worry, princess, these people are my confidantes. I have observed them for many years, and there is no question. Ask whatever you want, princess, and I promise not to spread a word." Butler Mo's expression is very confident. It's all said here, Shang Qing'er naturally can't say anything more.

After a while, Li Si and Liu Dou came out. After a few days of torture, they looked very embarrassed. There was no good place on the whole body from top to bottom, and the top was covered with bruises. It is expected that this cold and hot weather must be unbearable.

"Princess, I know I'm wrong, please spare my life." Upon seeing Shang Qing'er, Li Si and Liu Dou shouted, and they kept knocking their heads.

"Tie it up." For their pleading, Shang Qing'er didn't pay attention at all, she gave an order, and those nimble young men tied up Li Si and Liu Dou tightly.

"Hang it up." Shang Qing'er ordered again, and the two of them had already hung on the pillars in the prison.

Butler Mo looked at all this and didn't make a sound, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

"Princess, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't pretend to be a ghost to scare the prince. Please let me go. I can't bear this crime..." Li Siben was timid, he had never seen such a situation before, If he had known about such a result earlier, let alone giving him 100 taels of silver, even if he was given 1000 taels, he would not dare to accept this job.

"Now you know you're wrong? It's late, come and hit me. Hit me hard." Shang Qing'er gave another order to hit him before trial. This is unreasonable, but, for this type of person, you have to be reasonable. If you suppress them, you may not be able to suppress the truth.

The servants served Shang Qing'er tea, and Shang Qing'er sat there, listening to Li Si and Liu Dou's howling, she was indifferent, she didn't care at all, even her brows didn't frown For a moment, housekeeper mo broke into a cold sweat when he saw her so calm.

Finally, after about twenty lashes, Shang Qing'er spoke up and told the servants to stop.

"Tell me, who ordered you to assassinate the lord, tell the truth, otherwise, this princess will soon be chopped up and fed to the dogs, believe it or not?" Shang Qing'er stood up, Ling Li's eyes looked at Li Si, Li Si is relatively timid, which is a good breakthrough.

"Princess, the little one really doesn't know. Liu Dou gave the little one 100 taels of silver and asked the little one to do him a favor, so the little one went, thinking, is it just a few ghost screams? The little one doesn't have much Ah, my concubine, I'm wrong, I'm really wrong." Li Si told Shang Qinger what happened like a bamboo tube.

Only then did Shang Qing'er realize in her heart that Liu Dou was the outside line of the palace.

"Liu Dou, tell me, who is your upline? Who sent you? And what benefits did it give you?" Shang Qing'er turned to look at Liu Dou.

Liu Dou remained silent. Although his body was bleeding from the beating, he still gritted his teeth.

"Princess, this thing was done by the little one, but the little one did it alone. There is no mastermind. The princess wants to be killed or chopped up. Please give the order." I have to say that Liu Dou is still a man. Man, at this moment, he is still protecting his upline.

"Okay, since you said that, if my concubine doesn't beat you, it would be too disrespectful to you. Come here, pass me the whip." Shang Qing'er took the whip with her own hands and rubbed it on Liu Dou's back. pumped up.

This beating is also skillful. At this time, Shang Qing'er didn't want him to die, so she only hit him on the back, at most there would be some trauma, but it couldn't end his life.

Liu Douben was still considered a man, but under this severe torture, he also felt pain sometimes, so he yelled loudly, Shang Qinger didn't give half a sympathy to his yelling, and still tried his best slapped him violently.

After a long time, everything finally calmed down, and Liu Dou was almost beaten.

Shang Qing'er stretched out her hand and brought over a paper bag, which contained a package of things, silvery white and tasteless.Shang Qing'er guessed that this thing was the mercury in Feng Yuchen's bowl.

"Who gave you this quicksilver, to be honest. Otherwise, you will still have to be beaten." This thing was found on the wall, and now, the evidence is convincing, Liu Dou might not be able to deny it even if he wanted to.

"No one gave it to me. It's my own." Liu Dou had no energy left, but even so, he still gritted his teeth and refused to give up a single step.

"Your stuff? Then let me ask you again, what enmity does the lord have with you? You put this thing into his medicine bowl, trying to put him to death?" When this matter was mentioned, Shang Qing'er became very angry. Just rushed up.

When Butler Mo heard this, he was also extremely nervous. Eating this mercury was not a joke. He had never worried about Feng Yuchen's diet before.

"My lord has no grievances or enmities with me. This matter is all done by me alone and has nothing to do with others." Liu Dou still didn't say anything, and he wanted to carry this matter to the end like a tough guy.

"Great. If you don't tell me, I have plenty of solutions. Let me ask you again. A few days ago, in the grove in the back garden, who was the person who joined you? How much benefit did you accept from him? And who is the master you are talking about?" Shang Qing'er said this matter again.

That night, she didn't know that Liu Dou was the one who connected with the man outside the house. Now, everything is clear, the mercury in Feng Yuchen's bowl was put by Liu Dou.

However, Liu Dou was originally a servant of Yunhuitang, he had nothing to do with Feng Yuchen's food and drink, and he had no chance to prescribe medicine. This shows that there are still his accomplices in the mansion. If it comes out, not only Feng Yuchen, but even she will live in danger at any time.

Hearing what Shang Qing'er said, Liu Dou's face immediately changed, and his head was spinning rapidly, trying to find some excuse to put this matter to the past. It doesn't matter if he dies or not. It is impossible to expose his master.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, right? Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous. Butler Mo, tell him the whole story." Shang Qing'er asked Butler Mo.

Every time a person enters the mansion, he must report to Butler Mo, including family conditions, family members, etc., and there is a booklet recorded by Butler Mo.

"Liu Dou, 35 years old, from the suburbs of Beijing, with a seventy-year-old mother and two three-year-old twin sons, and his wife is the daughter of the owner of the oil mill on West Street in the middle of the city..." Butler Mo told Liu Dou's details, Shake it out completely.

"Liu Dou, it was a capital offense for you to harm the prince. It is reasonable for the whole family to be buried with him. Now, this princess is showing kindness. Tell me, is this princess sending your seventy-year-old mother back to the West? Or are you killing your two sons?" No matter how bad it is, you can still send your lovely wife to the border and give rewards to the soldiers..." This trick is really poisonous, and what Shang Qinger said was quite aggressive, which scared Liu Dou do not know what to do.

No matter how tough a guy is, he has a limit, he has weaknesses, so Shang Qing's son grasped his weaknesses.

"Are you going to confess or not?" Shang Qing'er asked again, with a cold smile always hidden on her face.

"Princess, please tell me, tell me..." Finally, Liu Dou couldn't take it anymore. He was not afraid of beating or death, but he was afraid that his whole family would be implicated.

"Butler Mo, write it down," Shang Qing'er ordered, butler Mo picked up a pen and wrote down everything Liu Dou told him.

"Last year, my mother was seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment. When I was in distress, I met a white-faced scholar who was about 40 years old. He said that as long as I would do things for him, he would pay to help me save my mother. At that time, I was desperate, so I had no choice but to comply with his request. He gave me money and helped me tide over the difficulties. I felt that he was my noble person, so when I did things, I worked extra hard... Later He asked me to add some ingredients to the lord's bowl, and I agreed to him, and I can't stop it if I go back and forth..." Liu Dou's move was intended to harm others, and he also He regretted it before, but for the sake of money, he had to suppress his conscience.

"Who is he?" Shang Qinger asked.

"I don't know what his name is. I call him Mr. at the beginning of every month. I meet him in the grove in the backyard of the mansion. He gives me something, and I put it in the prince's bowl. It's been three months..." Liu Dou said everything he knew.

"Okay, what else? How did you put the medicine in the prince's bowl? Who is your accomplice?" Shang Qing'er still asked, she couldn't let a house thief stay in the mansion.

"At the beginning, I put mercury into the prince's tea bowl. Later, I found that the effect was not very obvious, so I added it to the medicine bowl. Princess, I did all of this, and there is no one in the mansion. This time, I was afraid that someone would find out, so I took Li Si to watch over me..." After Shang Qinger suppressed his weakness, Liu Dou finally confessed everything...

The truth of everything came to light, and Shang Qing'er was so angry that her hands were shaking.

"Butler Mo, find someone to look after his injuries. Li Si will be locked up in another room. Let him stay here for a while, and this princess will deal with him later." Shang Qing'er was really afraid that she would get angry at this moment, and asked Liu Dou's life was ruined, and when she thought of Feng Yuchen drinking so much mercury soup, she came here in a fit of anger.

If she doesn't take care of him seriously, she must have no idea who killed him when he died.
