The tyrant's petite group is squeamish again

Chapter 678 Chapter 678 Intimate
"Concubine Ping, please pay attention to your words!" The imperial concubine looked solemn and her voice was firm, "It is still unclear who poisoned you, so you can ask Mo'er in front of the officials, is it possible that you are the master of Qingtian who can override the officials? Is it above the family?"

She has endured for more than ten years for her son, and now she has finally come to the end of her hardships, and will never allow others to bite her daughter-in-law.

Concubine Tong agreed, "Sister Guifei is right, the case has not yet been settled, and the officials are also present, so we, the concubines, will not be able to question the third concubine."

"Officials, ministers and concubines also feel sorry for Duke Jiu..." Concubine Ping didn't finish her sophistry, because Emperor Chen glanced at her coldly and choked back her words.

"Father and Emperor, my daughter-in-law has not." Bai Mo felt that it was her turn to speak. She looked directly into the Emperor's eyes with clear eyes and a docile expression. Even if she intends to harm Xiao Jiu, my daughter-in-law will never be so stupid as to poison the cake she prepared for Xiao Jiu."

"Some people like to take a slanted sword and do the opposite..." Concubine Ping's words were interrupted by the emperor's cold eyes again.

Bai Mo sneered from the bottom of his heart, and continued: "Father, my daughter-in-law wants to try to prove her innocence, so please allow me."

Emperor Chen nodded and agreed to Bai Mo's request, he wondered if his daughter-in-law had such ability.

If the daughter-in-law cannot prove herself in the end, it will not be too late for him to send someone to investigate.

Concubine Ping and Tang Huan looked at each other and sneered from the bottom of their hearts.

This Bai Mo thinks he is a master investigator?It's ridiculous to prove your innocence.

Under the gaze of everyone, Bai Mo looked at Xin Cha, the eldest maid of the little fat girl, "I remember that at the beginning, everyone entered the main hall, but you and the ninth princess were outside the hall, right?"

Xin Cha hastily bowed his knees respectfully and replied: "To Wangfei, yes."

Bai Mo continued to ask: "Then have you ever left the food box?"

"Yes, the princess went to the clean room to change clothes during the period, the servants served the princess, and the food box was left on the stone table outside."

Bai Mo nodded, then looked at the imperial physician, and said respectfully: "Please ask the imperial physician to go out with us to check to see if there is any residue of medicine powder or the like."

The imperial doctor looked flattered, "Princess, you are being polite! This is what I should do!"

After he finished speaking, he followed Bai Mo and Xin Cha out of the courtyard and arrived at the stone table.

The Emperor Chen led his concubines out of the main hall and stood on the porch to watch.

Concubine Ping and Tang Huan looked at each other, and a smile flashed in their eyes.

Although they didn't do it, they watched from the sidelines and had someone clean up the table, so they were sure they didn't leave any traces.

but……

The imperial physician suddenly bowed and stared at a spot on the stone table, and then saw him take out a piece of paper and put it on the side of the stone table, and then use another piece of paper to gently stroke the surface of the stone table a few times, Apparently suspicious powder was found.

This was not over yet, the imperial physician found a little powder near the stone table, and he bent down to collect it.

Concubine Ping and Tang Huan were not in a hurry when they saw the imperial physician collecting the powder, because they thought that the powder should have been accidentally spilled by someone else.

The imperial physician looked at the noble concubine and said respectfully, "Please trouble me to prepare two glasses of clean water for me."

"Okay." The noble concubine looked at the confidant maid, who immediately went down to prepare, and soon came back with two glasses of water.

The imperial physician put the powder into the water, took a detoxification pill, took two glasses of water, and took a sip of each.

Under the gaze of Emperor Chen and others, the imperial doctor put down the cup, cupped his hands and said to Emperor Chen: "Officials, this powder is the same as the poison in the princess, it should be accidentally spilled by the murderer when he poisoned."

Concubine Ping's pupils shrank fiercely, this is impossible!She opened her lips to refute the imperial physician, but when she heard Bai Mo speak first, he actually helped her question the imperial physician "intimately"——

"The imperial physician is so sure? Is it possible that the medicinal powder spilled from the pastry?"

But seeing the imperial physician bowing, he answered Bai Mo's question firmly, "It is impossible for this poisonous powder to spill from the inside of the cake, because this poisonous powder is very delicate, once it is on the cake, unless it falls with the cake crumbs, Otherwise it will never spill from above.

When the minister collected the powder, he could tell with the naked eye that there were no pieces of Guanghan cake mixed in it.Later, when I tasted the poison, I didn't taste the slightest taste of Guanghan cake.Guanghan Cake has a strong aroma, but if there is a little crumbs mixed in, it is impossible for two glasses of water to miss the taste. "

"In this way, as long as we find out who spilled these medicinal powders, we should be able to clear the Third Princess's innocence." Concubine Tong said to Emperor Chen.

The Emperor Chen nodded, and scanned the maids in the courtyard.

The maids all lowered their heads, so they couldn't see the expressions on their faces.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a flower pot being kicked over.

Everyone followed the prestige, and saw a little palace maid tremblingly getting up from the ground in the corner, and then ran away.

"Grab her!" Chen Di said coldly.

In an instant, a guard rushed to the little maid, blocked her way, and escorted the little maid back to kneel in front of the emperor.

"Why are you running?" Emperor Chen asked coldly, "Could it be you who poisoned me?"

The little maid shook her head in fright, "No, it's not a slave! The slave didn't do anything, didn't see anything..."

Concubine Ping and Tang Huan were not nervous at all when they saw this little maid, because this little maid was not the one who poisoned her.

But after hearing "I didn't see anything", my heart skipped a beat.

These words mean, what did the little maid see? !

"What did you see?" Emperor Chen bent down, trying not to look so scary, "Say it, I don't blame you, and I will even reward you."

The little maid trembled, her lips parted, and after sneaking a glance at Concubine Ping, Tang Huan and the other maid, she quickly lowered her head.

Seeing this, the imperial concubine knelt down beside the little maid, put her hand on the shoulder of the little maid, and said softly: "My good boy, tell us what you have seen, and I promise you will not be hurt."

As if the imperial concubine's consolation had worked, the little maid gradually calmed down.

Seeing this, Concubine Ping glared coldly at the little maid, trying to threaten the little maid not to talk nonsense, but the concubine noticed it, turned her body calmly, and blocked Concubine Ping's sight.

The little maid took a deep breath, and said: "The maidservant heard Miss Tang and Concubine Ping discussing killing the concubine, and then saw that Concubine Ping found a maid and handed the poison powder to that maid.

While the princess was going to change clothes, the maid quickly stepped forward and poisoned the Guanghan cake. The servant wanted to remind the princess not to eat the Guanghan cake, but the maid was beside her, so the servant could not speak.The slaves are afraid of being murdered by Concubine Ping and Miss Tang! "
