Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 200
As an imperial physician, he has his own integrity, how can he tolerate being questioned about his medical skills, the imperial physician shook his beard in anger, raised his hand to the queen and said solemnly: "The empress is very observant, I have been an imperial physician for more than [-] years. No one in the palace knows that this humble minister is diligent and never lies!"

"Your Majesty Qin's words are an insult to this humble official. If the empress doesn't believe it, you can ask other adults to come and test it out to see if this humble official is lying or not!"

Naturally, the empress believed more in the words of the imperial physician, and besides, she didn't care whether Qin Guiren was poisoned, as long as the soup she sent was poisonous, it could be regarded as her poisoning!

After all, in this palace, the loss of a favorite concubine is only beneficial to her.

"Qin Guiren, you are not telling the truth! With so many people watching, the imperial physician has no grievances or enmity with you, so could it be that he deliberately framed you?" The queen scolded, and waved her hand to signal the imperial army to come forward and hand Qin Guiren over. tied up.

No matter how ignorant she is, she also understands how much guilt she will bear if she has something to do with the poisoning of the Holy Emperor. Even if she is convinced that she was framed, At this time, his legs couldn't help shaking a little.

"Boss Xia, please speak for Bengong. There is no poison in Bengong's soup, right?" Her eyes were foggy, and there was deep panic behind her. She doesn't want to be a victim in this palace. She has the prince to protect her. That said, Xia Shengqing belongs to the prince and will never sit idly by
"Hey, what kind of love is Qin Guiren asking for? How can Boss Xia help you speak up? Could it be that Qin Guiren has a close relationship with him?"

Shui Yanran is naturally a little yin and yang at this time. Xia Shengqing was also beside Ming Shengdi when he was poisoned. When everyone heard what she said, they couldn't help but feel sad. Since ancient times, it is impossible for this king's favorite concubine to have no connections in the harem. Yes, and as Xia Shengqing was a celebrity in front of Ming Shengdi, if it was said that Qin Guiren had some friendship and collusion with Xia Shengqing, it was inevitable, and this was a common thing in the palace.

"The concubine Yue is serious. Your Majesty Qin just thought that the slave was also serving me just now, so he asked the slave to help me prove it."

Xia Shengqing said calmly, shifting her eyes to Qin Guiren's face, her thin lips opened, "It's just that Qin Guiren is afraid that he has asked the wrong person, and the servant is just serving the emperor, and I don't know if there is any in the mother's soup. thing."

His words made Qin Guiren a little astonished, it was clear that he told himself to send soup tonight to be a solid pet, why did he not help at all when something went wrong?

And Xia Shengqing was still indifferent, but lowered her eyebrows and turned her head to one side, keeping Qin Guiren's entire expression out of sight.

The expressions of both of them were seen by Shui Yanran, and she smiled coldly in her heart, thinking that Xia Shengqing is indeed a cruel and ruthless person, since she had an affair with Qin Guiren, and now she is accused of poisoning and killing the king. I hurriedly skimmed it clean again.

It's just that she hasn't fully collected her net yet, it's not so easy for Xia Shengqing to get out!

"Okay, shut up! Now that the evidence is conclusive, what else can you say, Mr. Qin, the emperor loves you so much, but you don't feel grateful to Dade at all. It's a waste of my trust in you!"

Naturally, the Empress would not give Qin Guiren any chance to defend herself, she raised her willow eyebrows and flirted with the imperial guards, and Qin Guiren was dragged down by the neighbors on the left and right.

Her begging for mercy and crying continued all the way, and Shui Yanran covered her ears even more.

"Empress, according to my concubines, the nobleman of Qin is favored by the emperor, and she definitely will not poison the emperor for no reason. There must be some hidden secret behind her doing such a treacherous thing. Could it be this Qin Guiren conspired with someone to think that poisoning the emperor could get something he shouldn't have, and it's not impossible." Shui Yanran said quietly, her eyes drifted on Xia Shengqing's body for a while. The words were bitten again.

Qin Guiren is in the prime of his youth, while Ming Shengdi is late. To put it bluntly, the love affair of a branch of pear blossom pressing a crabapple is not reliable. Which youthful woman does not love a handsome man, as for this Qin Guiren? It is not because of this reason that the desire to kill the king arises, no one can say for sure.

The queen understood what Shui Yanran meant, although she had always disliked Shui Yanran, but if she could get rid of Qin Guiren, she would not mind listening to it.

"Oh? Concubine Yue said so, but what kind of inside information does she know?"

Shui Yanran twitched her eyebrows, and let out a hey, as if there was something unspeakable, she sighed and shook her head, which whetted her appetite.

"This... concubine dare not speak nonsense!"

She was so evasive and kept silent, and acted as if she knew something important was going on, but the queen covered her lips and coughed twice, looked at the eagerness of everyone in the hall, and said softly: "It's okay for you to say it. "

"Yes...but it's really not an inside story. It's just that the concubine's palace servant heard from her little sister who worked in Zhaohui Palace that the Qin nobleman often met a young man in the palace in the middle of the night. It’s really shameless to do things in Chaohui Palace.”

Shui Yanran's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and it just reached everyone's ears. Among the crowd, there were surprises, contempt, and doubts. After all, the words spoken by this woman in the harem were more or less half-true.

The queen, on the other hand, took a deep look at Shui Yanran, who was more probing than the others.

"Originally, the concubine didn't believe it, but when the palace servants and the concubine reported it in a decent manner, the concubine thought that if the nobleman of Qin really did such things as sorry for the emperor, he would definitely be severely punished." Yes, now that I have a secret in my heart, I want to come tonight to speak politely to the emperor. But who knows, it's still a step too late. Qin Guiren, she is really cruel!"

I saw Shui Yanran moaning and sighing while holding up a silk handkerchief to wipe away a few tears seeping out of the corners of her eyes, looking at Ming Shengdi who was still in a coma and whining: "The Empress must thoroughly investigate this matter, if this Qin Guiren's dirty things are kept hidden like this, I'm afraid there will be even more messes in the harem from now on."

These righteous and awe-inspiring words inevitably made people feel different. The queen's eyes were deep and she hadn't spoken yet, but she heard Xia Shengqing speak.

"Are the concubine Yue's palace people telling the truth? No outsiders are allowed in this harem. There are guards from the Imperial Army on top, and hussars patrolling the night. It is really more difficult to give and receive."

Shui Yanran turned her eyes to stare at him, she could see a bit of guilt from his slightly gathered eyes, she sneered in her heart, she was still so eloquent when she was about to die, she would naturally be more attractive to him in a while.

"What Boss Xia said is true. It's a bit more difficult for a foreigner, but if you are a servant like Boss Xia, you can move around freely in this harem."

She emphasized the word "walk around at will", and only saw a slight change in Xia Shengqing's face for a moment, and she understood it in her heart, and turned to the queen again.

"The concubine thinks that as long as someone is sent to search the Zhaohui Palace, if the nobleman of Qin had an affair, she would definitely leave clues. As long as the evidence is found, it will be absolutely undeniable."

The queen nodded slightly, raised her hand, and ordered the commander of the forbidden army to arrange for people to go to Zhaohui Palace to investigate and search the palace. After all, this matter not only involved the secret affairs of the palace, but also involved the face of Ming Shengdi, so it must not be sloppy.

Shui Yanran had a faint smile on her face, and breathed a sigh of relief, she had made arrangements in the Zhaohui Palace early in the morning, as long as the evidence hidden in advance was found, then Xia Shengqing would be invincible.

This time, she wanted him to die without a place to bury him!
The Mosheng Garden was still quiet at this time, the team led by the Imperial Army to search the palace walked past the front of the garden, the torches were brightly lit, and there were occasional shouts urging their pace.

Across the long road and the door of the house, Xia Zijin felt tired after dinner and took a rest early. At this time, she woke up after a sleepy sleep, opened her sleepy eyes, and only heard a faint sound coming from outside. There was a lot of noise, and the bright torches illuminated the dark palace road like daylight.

"Xiaokui, what's going on outside?"

Xia Zijin called out, opened the brocade quilt, put on embroidered shoes, took a coat from the shelf, and put it on.

Xiaokui was in the outer room, when she heard her call, she went in, straightened her wrinkled robe and said, "I don't know much about it, I just know that the imperial guards are passing from the front of our garden, as if they are heading towards the east hall. went to..."

Xia Zijin didn't think deeply, but only heard the sound of small footsteps outside the house approaching, and Xiao Huanzi hurried into the house while supporting the crown on his head.

"Princess!"

Seeing that Xia Zijin had woken up, he took a few breaths and slowed down before he was suffocated in a hurry, and quickly said: "Princess, something serious happened, Qin Guiren poisoned the emperor's soup, and now my son has been killed." The empress is in prison!"

"what?!"

Xia Zijin was taken aback for a moment, and Xiaokui was also taken aback.

"The nobleman of Qin is quite favored by the emperor, how could he poison the emperor for no reason?" Xia Zijin was very puzzled, besides, the nobleman of Qin was clearly the prince's man, and he was sent into the palace to serve as his internal support. , there is no reason to do stupid things at this time.

Xiao Huanzi paused and lowered his voice: "Princess doesn't know something. Concubine Yue said in the Qianqing Palace that the nobleman of Qin had an affair with a man and often lived in Chaohui Palace. The queen has sent someone to search for her. Qin Guiren probably won't be able to escape this time."

No wonder so many imperial guards hurried past on the palace road just now, they were rushing to Zhaohui Palace.

Xia Zijin frowned and thought deeply, if it was said that Qin Guiren had an affair, she would not believe it. Although Qin Guiren is not very prominent, he must not be so ignorant.

"You said it was Shui Yanran who said that Qin Guiren had an affair with others..."

Xia Zijin murmured, suddenly thought of something, and suddenly widened her eyes.
