The concubine is poisonous

Chapter 57 Five-day deadline
Who is going to kill himself?Gu Xinning already knew about it in her heart, but there was no evidence, and everything was just empty words. Even if she said it, others would think that she was trying to quibble, trying to frame others to exonerate herself.

Gu Xinning could only be dumb as if she was eating coptis, and stood there in a daze.Gu Xinning couldn't help looking at Ye Junyan, Ye Junyan also stood there without saying a word and stole lowly, as if thinking, but also as if deliberately ignoring him to avoid suspicion.

Gu Xinning couldn't help sneering, and then looked at other people. The Empress Dowager looked fierce and wanted to eat herself, and stared at herself fiercely, her aggressive aura seemed to not allow Gu Xinning to argue at all.Lu Liqi looked around with flickering eyes, looking at herself and the empress dowager for a while, as if she was grasping something.Cuixia on the ground kept calling her name in a soft voice, persuading herself to confess herself so that she could avoid the pain of flesh and blood.

Everything seems to have already convicted Gu Xinning of the crime, just waiting for her to let go, and everyone can sit in peace and watch her go to the gallows.

Gu Xinning suddenly felt that the sky was spinning in front of her eyes and moved quickly. Before Gu Xinning lost consciousness, she only murmured a sentence: "You guys have wronged me."

After that, Gu Xinning fell down heavily. Nian Se panicked and ran forward to help Gu Xinning up, calling: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wake up, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty has passed out."

"Hmph, it's time for a while, this bitch still wants to pretend to be pitiful, so someone brings her to the Compassionate Ning Palace, and Ai's family will find someone to help her cure her illness." The empress dowager said angrily, this is what Gu Xinning heard After the last sentence, Gu Xinning passed out.

Just as a group of guards were about to rush forward to arrest him, Ye Junyan walked up to Gu Xinning to stop them, and said to the Empress Dowager, "Mother, convicting someone with only a gold hairpin and a maid's one-sided words seems to be a crime. It's a bit hasty, after I find out about this matter, can I give my mother an explanation?"

The empress dowager said displeased: "Now that the matter is up to now, the case is solid, the evidence is solid, there are witnesses and physical evidence, the emperor still wants to protect this bitch?"

Ye Jun said nonchalantly: "Personal evidence can be bought, and physical evidence can be secretly obtained. Before everything is proven, it is not appropriate to judge lightly."

The empress dowager said angrily, "What if the Ai family decides to take this bitch away?"

Ye Junyan said coldly: "Then it depends on whether these guards are servants of the Compassionate Ning Palace or my Zhaoxuan Kingdom."

Originally thinking of showing off in front of the empress dowager, the guards who were eager to move forward felt fear when they heard Ye Jun's words, and involuntarily took two steps back. There is a chance to get a big reward or even a promotion, but if you offend the emperor because of this, you may lose your head and ransack your home.

The empress dowager was angry when she saw this, but she was helpless. After all, when it comes to the big, the emperor is the biggest, so she had to say reluctantly: "Today the emperor thinks that he is protecting the murderer. If there is a bad influence in the harem in the future, the wind of poison will follow." If the momentum rises, the emperor will not regret it?"

Ye Junyan looked at the empress dowager expressionlessly and said, "Everything is up to me, but anyone who finds out that he has done harm will never be tolerated."

The Empress Dowager went on to say: "Never tolerate it? Fortunately, all the evidence now points to Gu Xinning being poisoned, but the Emperor insists on believing that she was wronged. Please also find out the evidence that she was wronged. Otherwise, Aijia will never accept this matter." Let it go."

"Okay, I will definitely find out the truth and explain to my mother and Concubine Yun." Ye Junyan said calmly.

The empress dowager was still not satisfied, and said: "How long will the emperor plan to explain to me? One month? One year? Or"

"Within five days, I will definitely give my mother an answer." Ye Junyan interrupted the empress dowager.

The empress dowager heard the words, but she seemed to have already decided that Gu Xinning was the murderer and said: "Okay, five days later, Ai's family will come to take this bitch away again, I hope the emperor will not stop him and go back to the palace." After staying there, he drove back to the Compassion Palace angrily.

When Gu Xinning woke up, it was already afternoon, Nian Se was waiting by the bed, and Ye Junyan stood by the bed condescendingly looking down at her coldly.Gu Xinning suddenly felt that looking at Ye Junyan from this angle seemed to highlight Ye Junyan's stern and arrogant attitude. Ye Junyan's handsomeness was a kind of handsomeness that had left the delicate and mature. Maybe it was because He started politics earlier, and worked too hard for state affairs, so he matured earlier. It would be great if he wasn't my enemy. ' Gu Xinning suddenly thought so in her heart.

Seeing that Gu Xinning woke up, Ye Junyan said coldly, "The golden needle is too strong?"

Gu Xinning was taken aback when she heard the words, blinked her eyes and pretended to be in a daze and asked, "Golden needle? What kind of golden needle?"

Ye Junyan snorted coldly and raised his hand. There were two slender golden needles sandwiched between Ye Junyan's two fingers. It was about the kind of golden needles in Gu Xinning's needle bag. Ye Junyan raised his hand, and after showing the golden needles He continued to say coldly: "Pricking the acupoints with golden needles until he fainted, you are so confident that I will help you? If I hadn't helped you, in my heart you should have been cut off by the empress dowager and turned into a stick."

Gu Xinning was anxious at the time, but she couldn't explain it, so she secretly used the method of gold needles to make herself unconscious, in order to ask Ye Junyan to protect her.

Gu Xinning listened to Ye Junyan's words and said with a smile: "Unexpectedly, I still couldn't hide it from the emperor, but in the end I helped the concubine. It seems that the concubine bet her life on the emperor, and the illness is not wrong."

Ye Junyan turned his back to Gu Xinning and said, "I almost made a mistake."

Gu Xinning moved her head in confusion, and asked, "Oh? Your Majesty didn't intend to help me?"

Ye Junyan nodded and said, "Yes, originally I thought you were the one who poisoned you. If so, then your death is not a pity. Not only will I not save you, but I will even kill you first."

Gu Xinning laughed so hard that people couldn't figure out what she was laughing at. While laughing, she said in her mouth: "Yesterday, the emperor insisted that it was the concubine who poisoned Concubine Yun. How come today, everyone, When all the evidence shows that I was the one who poisoned, the emperor doesn't believe it."

Ye Junyan glanced at Gu Xinning and explained: "I thought about your words later, arsenic is indeed not a clever poison, a person who understands poison and knows how to poison, would not poison with such a substandard poison, and why would you want to use it?" Take this golden hairpin as a token? Among the jewelry I gave you, there are obviously many priceless items, but you still want to reward Cuixia with the hairpin that the Empress Dowager and Concubine Qi happen to know. , I don't believe you would do such a stupid thing."

Gu Xinning smiled and sighed softly, and said with a self-mockery: "Unexpectedly, the evidence that other people can try to frame me has become something to prove my innocence in the emperor's heart. This is really fun."

Ye Junyan looked at Gu Xinning again and said coldly: "Fun? The empress dowager wants to put you to death. I can only keep your life for five days. If you can't prove your innocence within five days, Ci Ning Gongdao is indeed a place where you can have a good time before you die."

Gu Xinning looked at Ye Junyan with a charming smile and said, "The concubine knows that the emperor will not let the concubine go."

"Hmph, there's only so much I can help you with, and you'll have to deal with the rest by yourself." Ye Junyan then turned around and went back to the hall to review the memorial.

Nian Se helped Gu Xinning up and said, "Mother, the emperor is lying. In fact, the emperor was very nervous about my sister at first. It was only later that I found a golden needle on my sister. That's when I realized that my sister made me faint."

"Oh? So you didn't know it from the beginning." Gu Xinning said without interest after hearing Nian Se's words.

Nian Se looked at Gu Xinning's peaceful expression, and couldn't help frowning: "Sister, let's think about how to find the real culprit first, and clear your innocence!"

Gu Xinning smiled softly: "You don't need to think about it to know that Lu Liqi wanted to blame me, and Ran Yunmo was just cooperating with her on purpose."

Nian Se asked puzzledly: "Although arsenic is not a poison that can never be cured, it is also extremely dangerous. Could Concubine Yun be so stupid?"

"Hmph women's jealousy can make them do any crazy thing." Gu Xinning said with a helpless sigh.

"Then sister, can you tell them to show their true colors?" Nian Se asked again.

Gu Xinning sighed and said, "They did it premeditatedly. I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. I guess the only witness, Cui Xia, will die soon."

Nian Se said: "Your Majesty's guess is right. Cuixia said she was ashamed of her entrustment to her, and she bit her tongue and died on the spot."

Gu Xinning said: "Oh, once Cuixia dies, it will be even more difficult to prove my innocence."

"Then what should we do?" Nian Se asked anxiously.
Gu Xinning sighed quietly and said, "Oh, usually I'm the one who framed other people, but now I was killed by others unexpectedly. It's really a cycle of heaven, and it's a long-term reward."

Seeing Gu Xinning's calm and joking face, Nian Se couldn't help becoming more anxious and said: "Sister, don't scare Nian Se, Nian Se will definitely not let sister have an accident, Nian Se will protect you and get out of the palace."

Seeing Nian Se's earnest and anxious expression, she couldn't help laughing out loud, and said: "My little Nian Se, my sister is teasing you, don't worry, that Lu Liqi is vicious but timid, my sister knows how to deal with her. "

Hearing Gu Xinning's words, Nian Se immediately burst into tears and said with a smile: "What does sister need Nian Se for?"

Gu Xinning looked out the window and said, "Go out of the palace and find out where Cui Xia's family lives, and when you find them, ask their daughter about her recent situation."

Nian Se frowned and said: "Madam, maids of honor are not allowed to leave the palace, even if Nianse is able to leave the palace because of the favor of the Madam, then Cuixia can't leave the palace either. If you find her parents, what can you find out?" ?”

Gu Xinning smiled and urged Nian Se: "Oh, good Seer, don't ask me any more. When you see Cui Xia's parents, it's better to ask them directly. You have to be more vigilant in the middle of the journey, in case someone kills someone to silence her."

Nian Se tilted her head and said, "Your Majesty, do you really think that someone wants them to die?"

Gu Xinning pushed Nian Se and said: "Oh, good Seer, go quickly, if you go late, it will be really sad if you lose me."

Nian Se saw that Gu Xinning didn't look like she was joking, so she quickly helped the weak Gu Xinning to lie down, and said, "Okay, Nian Se will go now, sister can rest well." After finishing speaking, Nian Se hurried to find someone to inquire about Cui Xinning Xia's business has gone.
