I don't want to be wronged again

Chapter 158 192, Jinhua

Qiu Yuan rolled his eyes at the two of them and said: "If you don't need him anymore, it's okay for us to turn against him. But my lady, we haven't even said a word about our coming, or You have to take advantage of his power, right? You lost your temper too, and when the emperor comes back tomorrow, let's give him a step down."

Qing Dai said angrily: "I also know this truth, but I'm just bored in my heart. Forget it, in two days, I'll talk about it after I calm down."

Qiu Yuan shook his head in disapproval, and was about to persuade again, but heard a loud noise coming from the palace wall far away.In the distance, it seems to be the direction of Yanqi Palace.

The three masters and servants frowned, the palace rules were strict, who would dare to risk their lives and make a lot of noise?

Qingdai stood up, thought for a while and said: "Qiu Feng, you go and inquire; Qiu Yuan, you go and restrain our people, don't talk or do anything."

Qiufeng Qiuyuan agreed to go separately.

Not long after, Qiu Feng came back and saw Qing Dai report: "It's Mrs. Xianxiao's palace. Xu Chenghai of the Jinyiwei personally led people to arrest the person. It's Mrs. Xianxiao's maid in charge, named Jinhua. of."

Qing Dai frowned and said, "Do you know why?"

Qiu Feng shook his head and said: "At that time Mrs. Xianxiao was also present and stepped forward to stop her, but Xu Chenghai said that it was the emperor's order to ask Mrs. Xianxiao to go to the Palace of Compassion and Compassion together to hear the trial."

Qiu Yuan said: "We can't enter the Palace of Compassion and Ning, what should we do?"

Qing Dai said: "We can't get in, Liu Anke can, Qiu Yuan, you go to Liu Anke and find out clearly. We have to be on guard."

Qiu Yuan frowned and said, "You mean the queen?"

Qing Dai smiled and said: "You said the queen is pregnant, who is the most taboo?"

Qiu Yuan said: "The third prince is now the only prince in the palace, and he is raised in front of the empress dowager. The most taboo, of course, is Mrs. Xianxiao."

Qing Dai raised her hand and threw the hydrangea in her hand to the fish in the pond, watching them chattering for food, she said, "Don't you think the empress is jealous of the third prince? So, who is right and who is wrong in this matter, I'm afraid I can't tell, it depends on what the emperor and the empress dowager mean."

If Qiu Yuan realized something, he hurried to find Liu Anke for information.

At this time in the Compassionate Ning Palace, swords were on the verge of breaking out, and the whole hall was filled with an atmosphere so low that it was almost suffocating.

The empress dowager and the emperor sat on the top, one on the left and the other on the right. The mother and son faced each other coldly, as if they had different opinions.

The filial Mrs. Yan Qingluan, who was hurriedly sent by Xu Chenghai, was in a hurry and didn't have time to wash and dress carefully. She just put on a smoky blue and gold cloak over the homely purple satin dress. After asking Ann, he sat down at the lower head, not knowing whether he was in a hurry or in agitated mood, a palm-sized blue crystal bead on his temple trembled slightly, shining a little bit of brilliance.

Apart from these masters, only Xu Chenghai, Nanny Feng who was standing behind the Queen Mother, and Jinhua, the maid in charge of Yanqi Palace who was kneeling at the bottom of the steps, were the only ones in the hall.

Seeing Yan Qingluan arrived, the queen mother snorted coldly and said to the emperor: "Since the person has been brought here, please ask the emperor to start the interrogation. Qingluan, sit next to me. Don't be afraid, I just let you come to witness .”

Yan Qingluan stood up tremblingly, and asked, "Queen Mother, what did Jinhua do that made Mr. Xu rush to my palace so aggressively to ask for someone?"

The queen mother sighed, patted her hand and said: "Just listen, don't be afraid, there is Ai's family here, and it has nothing to do with you."

The emperor snorted coldly, did not answer Yan Qingluan's question, but nodded to Xu Chenghai: "Let's start."

Xu Chenghai nodded in agreement, bowed upwards and saluted, then stood up and said: "After the empress had a rest last night, she felt unbearable abdominal pain at the second moment of the child, and there were signs of redness. Immediately, the Kunning Palace passed on the imperial physician, who passed through the imperial hospital to Several imperial physicians including Yizheng confirmed that the empress had eaten food containing musk, which caused contraction of the uterus. Later, the imperial physicians confirmed one by one that there was no problem with the ingredients that the empress ate that day, and there were no problems with the clothes and utensils in the palace. The problem is that the water in the kitchen was found to contain a small amount of musk! And the water used by the Empress is taken from Yuquan Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing, and does not use the water from the well in the palace. From here, I took people to Yuquan The mountain water intake was identified by the little eunuch in charge of delivering water in the Kunning Palace, and this package was dug up upstream of the spring where he often fetched water! Please check it out, masters!"

He presented a small drab-brown bamboo cage to several people for inspection. After opening the cage, he poured out a handful of things that were also drab-brown and round. Few people will know the aroma, this is musk.

Xu Chenghai put those musk beads away, and continued: "These are all the seeds of musk. They are of high quality. Although they are soaked in water, the content is very low, but if they accumulate over time, they can still cause miscarriage in pregnant women. Fortunately, my mother recently had a pregnancy hazard. , I only like to eat fresh melons and fruits, and I don’t eat much, so I was lucky enough to keep the dragon fetus. Wei Chen thought, the time for this bag of things to be buried must not be long. Hearing the news, he acted tamperingly. Therefore, I carefully made a list of all the people who went out of the palace in the past few days, and checked them one by one. After investigation, there were a total of 120 people who went out of the palace in the past few days. One hundred and seven people who could be proved by each other or were witnessed by others were excluded. Only 19 people could not explain their whereabouts. After careful interrogation, among the 19 people, seven of them were out of the palace to meet their lovers, and five of them went to the palace. There are three others from the casino who stole and sold things from the palace, but the whereabouts of the last four people did not match the actual investigation. Among them was this girl Jinhua. According to girl Jinhua, she came out of the palace at home A letter came, her mother was sick and wanted to see her. But according to the investigation, her mother went out for the past few days and operated as usual. The neighbors said that her face was rosy, her voice was loud, and she was not sick at all. Miss Jinhua went home, but she only After leaving the palace, her family lived in Jingshui Hutong. Even if she walked, it was only half an hour's journey away, but Miss Jinhua only entered the house at a quarter to one in the afternoon! Her neighbor, Aunt Fan, remembered this time very clearly, because At that time, the sun was almost setting. Dare I ask, where have you been, Miss Jinhua?"

After his long speech, Yan Qingluan, who was sitting next to the queen mother, turned even paler. Her eyelashes trembled a few times, she sat up straight, and asked, "Master Xu, didn't you say that there are four more people?" Can't explain whereabouts? Then why are you only interrogating Jinhua now? You want me to be present, and you want to interrogate with the Queen Mother? You mean something! Do you suspect that I ordered it?!"
