Rebirth of the fire-baked concubine

Chapter 222 Witnesses Appear
An Fuhai's expression changed, and he saw a little palace maid stepping forward, and said in a trembling voice, "I seem to know why Concubine Shu was poisoned."

An Fuhai looked at Dongfang Chen, Dongfang Chen didn't speak, it was a tacit consent, An Fuhai turned to look at the little maid, "Go forward and answer."

The little maid walked quickly to the imperial steps, knelt down a little nervously, then leaned down, and said, "Your Majesty, just now, this servant saw Cuiyan touched the bracelet on her hand before delivering wine to Concubine Shu. The servant didn't think much at first, but when I think about it now, Cui Yan looked a little flustered at that time, I don't know if the servant thought too much."

The little maid named Cuiyan's face changed drastically when she heard the words, she turned her head and refuted loudly: "Hai Kui, you spout blood!"

"Your majesty, this servant is just telling the truth, sharing worries for the emperor and the empress." Cui Yan timidly retorted.

"You are talking nonsense, you are clearly..."

An Fuhai's face darkened, and he stopped loudly: "Shut up! In front of Your Majesty, you will be allowed to be presumptuous!"

"Check his bracelet." Dongfang Chen said in a deep voice with a gloomy face.

　Immediately, a nanny stepped forward, took off the bracelet from Cuiyan's hand, and examined it carefully.

This is a silver bracelet with very beautiful patterns carved on it, like a long vine wrapped around the bracelet.

Suddenly, the nanny's face changed, and she pressed a small flower on the bracelet with all her strength. The small flower moved, and a small hole opened beside it, and white powder fluttered down, which was unusual in the brightly lit hall. obvious.

Seeing this, everyone's face changed.However, everyone did not notice that Yu Wenjin's face was as white as snow in an instant beside the throne.

Dongfang Chen's face became even colder, "Doctor Zhang, what's in that bracelet?"

Doctor Zhang received the order, took the bracelet handed over by the old mother, poured a little powder on a piece of white paper, and after careful inspection, turned to Dongfang Chen with a serious face, "Your Majesty, the poison in the wine with Concubine Shu it's the same."

The smile on the corner of Yu Wenjin's mouth was a little stiff, and his hands were tightly clenched under his sleeves.

Dongfang Chen's face suddenly became gloomy, as if water was about to drip, and he looked at Cuiyan with cold eyes, who was already so frightened that Cuiyan lay on the ground, and he argued incoherently with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, it was really not done by slaves, The servant doesn't know anything, the servant doesn't know anything..."

An Fuhai snapped: "It's nonsense, you didn't do it, why is there such a vicious poison hidden in your bracelet..."

"Bold servant girl, I have no grievances with you, why do you want to poison me. Tell me, who ordered you?" Yun Xiyao's face was pale, and she looked at Cuiyan angrily.

"Not a slave, really not a slave." Cui Yan didn't say anything else, just kept repeating these two sentences.

"Come on, pull it down and hit her hard! Hit until she is willing to speak." Dongfang Chen waved his hand and said impatiently.

Immediately, a eunuch came up, set up Cuiyan, who was lying on the ground, and went out.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, you are really not a slave." Cui Yan cried and begged for mercy while struggling.

Next to the throne, Yu Wenjin adjusted her expression, then looked at Yun Xiyao, and said with a trace of concern: "Concubine Shu, how do you feel? Why hasn't the medicine come yet?"

Yun Xiyao lowered her eyes, concealing the trace of resentment in her eyes, and said with a trace of weakness in her voice: "Thank you, empress, for your concern, my concubine is fine, I'm afraid I will disappoint the mastermind behind the scenes."
