Kuai Chuan's face-slapping gold finger

Chapter 21

No one knows what Yu Miaojun and Miss Bailu said in the room, when she returns home and sees a group of servants walking hurriedly with anxious expressions, she knows that Yang Zhao's plan has already started!

At this time, there were many people around the son's bed, even the imperial doctor in the palace. They were thinking about the evidence, Rong Guogong held back his anger and walked out of the room, angrily kicked the person kneeling at his feet, and said sharply: "Check! Check it carefully for me! Who dares to do such filthy things in my house!"

"No." The man stepped back in a hurry regardless of the pain in his body.

A white-haired doctor stepped forward and said respectfully: "My lord, after many discussions with several senior officials, I have confirmed that the poison my son poisoned is called Sihecao. Died within half a day..."

"What?!" Rong Guogong was shocked, not only because of the son's danger, but also because of the name of the poison.

Sihecao...it was the poison that the Jiang family inflicted on Zhuang Sihao that day!Sihe grass is extremely hard to find, and it can only grow in the Luhe grassland. It happened that the hometown of Mrs. Jiang's companion was in that area. Convicted Jiang.

But last time, this medicine was completely destroyed by him?Everyone involved in that day has been silenced, how do the rest of the people know what Sihecao is?Besides, now that Mrs. Jiang is under house arrest in the Small Buddha Hall, where is the opportunity to poison her?What's more, the poisoned person is her parent and child whom she regards as precious as jewels...

Rong Guogong was puzzled, but the white-haired doctor still said slowly: "Master Guo, don't worry, the son has been poisoned for less than two hours. We have found the cause, and we only need to prescribe the right medicine. , but it is not difficult to understand.”

Duke Rong breathed a sigh of relief, but he heard the doctor change the subject: "It's just... there seems to be another kind of poison in Shizi's body. This poison is rarer than Sihecao. It's called Thousand Day Killer. This poison... There is no cure." This white-haired doctor is Chen Miaoshui who was sentenced to death by the imperial court. Perhaps ordinary imperial physicians would not be able to find out if he was killed in a thousand days, but Chen imperial physician might not be able to find it. The court sentenced to come to the house for medical treatment?

Imperial Physician Chen turned a blind eye to the fright and insignificant panic in Duke Rong's eyes, and explained the medicinal properties of Thousand Days Kill to himself, "Although there is no cure for this poison, but my son took it for less than [-] days, you just need to stop the medicine. However, Thousand Day Killer is poison after all, and it will definitely damage the body, so the son's lifespan is probably... a sad [-]th year."

After suffering repeated blows, Duke Rong calmed down surprisingly, and asked, "Can this poison harm your heirs?"

Imperial Physician Chen pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, so it should be fine."

Rong Guogong nodded. The son is seventeen years old this year. If there is no accident, he will have at least ten years to live. As long as he successfully gives birth to a son-in-law within these ten years, there will be no loss for the Duke's mansion, no matter how bad it is... ...Siyuan also has a younger brother...

Thinking of this, Duke Rong's body trembled, and cold sweat immediately covered his back.

If Zhuang Siyuan is gone...

He also thought of the Jiang family who is now under house arrest in the small Buddhist hall, and has been calling himself wronged from the beginning to the end, and even though the accompanying family has pleaded guilty, they have not had the opportunity to leave the Duke's mansion before, as for the Luhe grassland... Aunt Chen's elder brother is in charge of all the business of the Duke's Mansion to Hexi, so he can go too!
No, how could he doubt Aunt Chen?

Rong Guogong subconsciously shook his head, struggling several times in his heart, and felt guilty for being suspicious of Aunt Chen. With his delicate and weak appearance, how could he do such a thing?

But there is always a voice of nothingness reminding him: Think about it, who can benefit if the son is gone?And who can poison the prince quietly in the Duke's mansion, no one has noticed for two years, if they can attack the prince today, can't they lay hands on you tomorrow?Are you not afraid?

Am I not afraid?

Rong Guogong tried his best to suppress the chill, asked Chen Taiyi to treat him with all his strength, and ordered the guards to take the servants who were kneeling in the courtyard to torture him.The guards had already picked out the servants serving in the courtyard and concentrated them on guard, except for Qingdai who was not in the mansion with the son's strong guarantee. If the father said it, there was a lot of crying and grievances.

Shuqin knelt down and climbed a few steps, and shouted hissingly: "Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty to save this servant! This servant is wronged! This servant did not poison your tea——"

There was a sudden silence around, and even Yang Zhao, who was pretending to be dizzy on the bed, couldn't help shaking, only to hear Rong Guogong gritted his teeth and said, "Go! Here! I! Check!"

When Imperial Physician Chen confirmed that Sihe grass had been mixed into the tea, and found the residual poison of the thousand-day killer in the other two teacups, Shuqin had already collapsed on the ground, unable to utter a word as if she had been strangled by the neck. At the slightest sound, the whole person was shrouded in the shadow of fear, his lower body was wet, and there was an unpleasant smell.

The servants kneeling around moved away from her in fear and disgust, and the two guards stepped forward and dragged Shuqin down.

Duke Rong looked at the rest of the people, and said coldly: "Since you can't serve the prince well, the Duke Rong's mansion won't need you anymore." With a wave of his hand, "Take them all down. The poisoning has nothing to do with it, just sell it directly.”

"promise."

When Yu Miaojun hurried all the way to the gate of the courtyard, she happened to see the servants being taken away one by one. She couldn't feel any pity in her heart. Although they didn't kill anyone personally, they had sent news to Aunt Chen and Zhuang Minjing many times in the past few years. Those with good intentions even suspected it long ago but watched it coldly. The original owner died suddenly, and they were also accomplices.

Maybe there will be a few honest people, but the jade slips didn't mention it, and Yang Zhao and her can't prove it clearly in a short time. The only thing they can do is to give more money to those who sell their houses. Let's get rid of the money, and then ask the toothmaid to find a better place to go.

In the evening, the Shizi's room was finally quiet, only Qingdai was by her side.

Yang Zhao was half lying on the bed with no color on his face. When Yu Miaojun saw this, his heart softened, and he said, "Thank you for your hard work today."

Yang Zhao touched her hand comfortingly: "There is no way, how can Duke Rong suspect Chen Shi without using bitter tricks? How can he help Jiang Shi out of trouble? How can I get the imperial doctor to see me? I would like to thank Zhao Qi for finding this poison." . " As a former emperor, he understands the thoughts of the superiors, and he did not intend to hide the prince's intentions this time.

Seeing Zui Miaojun sighed, he said: "But you...have been working hard recently, being a maid and kneeling all day long."

"It's okay." Yu Miaojun shook his head, then changed the topic: "That matter has been arranged."

"Why do I have to worry about you doing business?" Yang Zhao suddenly laughed: "Rong Guogong must be suspicious of the Chen family now, maybe the Jiang family will be released in a few days, and then I will ask her to release you." Give it to me, how about being an aunt for me first? At least you don’t need to kneel before seeing anyone.”

"Heh." Zui Miaojun smiled.

Yang Zhao: "..."

The next day, Duke Rongguo's mansion welcomed a servant from the Eastern Palace, along with him came a woman in her thirties, and a boy in her thirteens and fourteens.

The servant represents the face of the East Palace, Duke Rong dare not be negligent, he greeted him in a hurry, but he heard the other party say: "His Royal Highness heard that the prince lacked a few servants, so he specially sent Wang Momo and Zhao Fu here. This Wang Momo is an old man in the palace, and she has always been upright and prudent." He pointed to the young man beside him: "He is Zhao Fu, despite his young age, he is the most alert and loyal, and won the favor of His Royal Highness." Wan looked at Duke Rong with a smile.

How could Duke Rong not know at this time, the crown prince already knew what happened yesterday, and this was just to protect Zhuang Siyuan and also to warn Duke Rong's mansion. Thanked the prince and accepted the two of them.

After sending the servant away, his face was gloomy, thinking that when the guard came to report yesterday, Shuqin confessed thoroughly after being tortured several times, that it was Aunt Chen who ordered her to act like this!She also said that she didn't know what kind of poison it was. In the past, Aunt Chen only ordered her to monitor the eldest son for dinner, but a few days ago she suddenly threatened her family's life and forced her to poison the eldest son's tea.

Although Rong Guogong was unwilling to face the truth, he believed it in his heart. For a while, it was difficult for him to accept that Aunt Chen, who was always gentle and kind, had such great ambitions. In anger and embarrassment, he immediately made people kill Shu Qin Miekou, perhaps, had a faint intention to cover up for the one she loves.

He originally wanted to end the matter like this, and warned Aunt Chen privately that he would look after the crown prince more in the future, but now he had to consider the crown prince's attitude.

So, kill the Chen family?He couldn't bear it, not to mention, he had to think about his beloved son and daughter.

Duke Rong went through the matter from beginning to end, and thought that the crown prince didn't know the details, at least he wouldn't know who the real murderer was. He was only the crown prince, so where did he get the ability to reach out to Duke Rong's mansion?This matter probably leaked when the imperial physician was invited yesterday. Duke Rong thought about it for a long time, and he summoned the guards to give some whispered instructions.

On that day, Zhuang Siyuan's courtyard had an extra nanny in charge and a servant boy who served him personally. His mother, Mrs. Jiang, was released from the small Buddhist hall and continued to be her wife of Rong Guogong, while Aunt Chen's elder brother was released. Completed all the errands of the Rongguo government, was sent to the extreme north, and never appeared in Beijing again.
