Chapter 761 The rhythm of death (3)
Lu Yuanshou nodded, looking at the potted flower with extremely heavy eyes, "The sap from the peacock flower you saw in front of you has turned blood red; and Wei Chen has just tried it with a silver needle, whether it is Both its leaves and peduncles are poisonous; after repeated experiments, Weichen has confirmed that the poison of this peacock is not strong; on the contrary, it is more like a slow poison."

When he said this, he suddenly paused, looked at Rufei, then at the queen, as if he was considering something.

After a long time, he slowly said again: "Just now, I borrowed the method of the Oriental girl to test the toxicity of these juices; the result proves... It proves that the poison contained in this peony flower is exactly the poison in your majesty's body. The thousand-day red contained in it..."

"What, it is this demon flower that has harmed His Majesty..."

Everyone was in an uproar; the eyes looking at the potted flower immediately became filled with righteous indignation.

When the queen heard this, her face suddenly turned cold.

Concubine Wei Ru showed both expected and unexpected conflicting expressions, she pursed her lips to laugh, but the curved arc seemed to cry more.

Does this peony really contain a thousand day red that made His Majesty unconscious?

Concubine Ru turned her eyes slightly, staring at this beautiful flower swaying in the cold wind, she was in a daze, between her eyebrows, she seemed to be crying, not crying, smiling, not smiling.

Lu Yuanshou paused for a while, then cast a deep glance at Rufei, and continued: "Besides, according to my observation, this peony must have been planted for more than four or five years; Its original characteristics cannot be achieved without two or three years."

The queen's brows were cold and cold, and her eyes were burning with coldness, "Then according to the opinion of the head of the court, how did the juice of the peony flower change into blood red?"

Director Lu pondered for a while, and said: "Theoretically speaking, if you want it to bleed out the same juice as blood, of course you can feed it with blood; in the same way, if you want it to change from non-toxic to poisonous It is poisonous, so poison must be used to make flower fertilizer for it.”

"Use two or three years to feed blood and poison?" The queen's eyes were bright, and the light in her pupils was more like the dazzling snow light on the tip of the ice. "No wonder it is called a thousand sun red; so For a long time, carefully feeding a plant, and only after it grows up, it will bloom brightly and brightly, it is not a thousand days of hard work, in exchange for a bright red."

"President Lu, so this thing is the bane that poisoned His Majesty?"

Lu Yuanshou stared at this beautiful flower swaying in the cold wind, frowned, and nodded, "Looking at the current situation, I think, probably yes."

"Rufei, do you have anything else to say now?" Wen Qiufeng turned around gracefully, smiling like a cloud, leisurely looking at the sick and weak woman whose face gradually turned pale, and asked calmly.

Rufei just smiled miserably, opened her pale and bloodless lips, and was about to say something.

Suddenly, I saw a nanny rushing towards the altar in a hurry.

When the queen saw the person coming, a few rays of light flashed in her eyes for a moment.

"Reporting to the Empress, the servant has already asked about the origin of this token."

Wen Qiufeng smiled slightly, parted her red lips slightly, and spoke in a simple and appalling way: "Say."

The nanny immediately said respectfully: "The servant went around and found the old general Zhu who lives in Miaoxing Street. The servant asked many people, but no one knew what kind of token it was. Later, I overheard an old man say It looked familiar, and said that the pattern on it looked like the emblem of some barbarian tribe; this servant reminded me of Old General Zhu who had fought against neighboring tribes when he was young."

"Your servant's question is finally the right person." The mother felt her throat was a little dry after speaking such a long paragraph, so she paused for a while, swallowed, and said: "Old General Zhu It is confirmed that this is indeed the emblem of a barbarian tribe; it is also a tribe that has been exterminated by me more than ten years ago; but this emblem is not just the emblem of the tribe, the sun with ten gears on it , it also means that she is the princess of that tribe."

"Tribe? Princess?"

Not only the queen was shocked, but also the other people present, who were a little closer, heard the words of this nanny; all of them showed expressions of horror.

"Then what tribe is this? But the tribe that was exterminated by our Jiaoyue?"

The nanny squinted her eyes and glanced at Concubine Ru, and said, "Return to the queen, old general Zhu said, this token belongs to the Maha tribe who used to linger in the northern border of Jiaoyue; It was exterminated by me, Jiaoyue, a few years ago; I never thought it would still have descendants."

"I'm a descendant of the Maha tribe? Returning to the princess?" Concubine Ru sneered miserably, with an indescribable sarcasm on the corner of her slightly curved lips, "My parents and my clan were born and raised in Huajing People, but I ran to the desolate northern border in one fell swoop, and became a descendant of the Maha tribe? It's amazing."

"Ms. Rufei, I've offended you." Xia Zhongqian suddenly picked up the long sword on the desk, and lifted off the clothes on Rufei's left shoulder, and the snow-white skin that was smooth and smooth was exposed in front of everyone; Rufei's face She lost her blood all of a sudden, before she could react, the other hand of the national teacher grabbed something and sprinkled it on her white skin, "I want to know if you are a descendant of the Maha tribe, Whether she is a princess or not, only this method can prove it."

"Because I know that all members of the royal family of the Maha tribe have invisible emblems on their left shoulders; they can only be revealed by sprinkling special medicine."

He did it in one go, finishing the action of picking clothes and spraying medicine in the blink of an eye.

As his voice fell, a strange pattern suddenly appeared on Rufei's white and trembling shoulders, which echoed the pattern of a token found from the mirror frame of her bedroom; it was indeed the emblem of the Maha tribe undoubtedly.

"Ah!" The one who exclaimed was the nanny who was very close to Rufei; she almost stared at Rufei's shoulders without blinking. In panic, she pointed at Rufei's snow-white skin, and stammered: "This... this... what is it?"

Xia Zhongqian sneered proudly, and with a movement of the sword tip, he had already picked back Rufei's clothes.

Then, he put the long sword back into the scabbard, facing the officials, and slowly said: "This is the emblem that only the Maha royal family has. Rufei is undoubtedly the princess of Maha."

"As for why her parents became wealthy in Huajing; I'm afraid the adults from the Ministry of Labor and Household Affairs will investigate this matter."

Concubine Ru stood desolately in the cold wind, looking at those people's hateful eyes and ferocious faces; she suddenly felt that the world had completely abandoned her.

They actually have the ability to turn her into a descendant of the Maha tribe, and naturally they also have the sky-high ability to pin more terrible things on her head.

Concubine Ru's eyes turned slightly, and she suddenly saw the puppet; the puppet dug out from her Liuyun Palace.
