The Concubine of the Ruthless Prince

Chapter 208

At this time, they had long heard that someone had poisoned the emperor's dishes, and they were all frightened to death, fearing that they would become scapegoats.

Xi Luo glanced coldly at the people present and asked, "Who served this plate of fish-flavored shredded pork?"

"Yes, it's a servant girl." A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl replied in a trembling, low voice, almost crying.

Xi Luo took a look at her, and she looked pretty.

"Then tell me, has anyone been close to this dish?"

"My servant, my servant doesn't know..." The little girl was already shocked. At that time, so many people crowded in from the kitchen, how could she know who was approaching this dish.

Upon hearing that, Xi Luo said lightly, "That means, you planted the arsenic?"

"No maidservant, the princess clearly checked, no maidservant." The little girl was so frightened that she immediately licked her head on the ground, and a blood mark was quickly knocked out on her forehead.

"Since it's not you, you should think about it for this princess. During your delivery of food, has anyone approached you, or someone talked to you, or have you put down the food to do something else? Things." Xi Luo's words began to become cold, and the little girl turned pale in fright, and began to think seriously.

After thinking for a while, the little girl suddenly remembered, and hurriedly said: "The servant girl has been having stomach troubles for the past two days, and in the middle of delivering the food today, she suddenly thought about it again, so she put down the food and went to the latrine." The emperor's stomach turned upside down. This damn girl must have gone to the latrine without washing, and then continued to serve the dishes with the hand she wiped her buttocks. The emperor has always been a clean person. At this moment, he almost wanted to Just execute this stinky girl who doesn't like cleanliness directly.

In fact, King Haohan is also a person who loves cleanliness, and when he heard this girl say this, he couldn't hold back his face.

You don't need to think about it, you know that when you put down the food in the middle, you must not wash your hands when you come back, and serve the food directly.

Xi Luo didn't notice the little Jiujiu in the hearts of these two men, she continued to ask: "What about when you come back?"

"My servant saw the fourth lady passing by." The little girl lowered her voice, but confessed to the fourth lady without any hesitation in her tone.

"You lowly servant girl, how dare you spout blood." The fourth madam was really angry, she stepped forward and kicked out fiercely, kicking the little girl with tears in her eyes but she didn't dare to dodge.

With her life at stake, the Fourth Madam forgot to take into account her noble status for a while, and kicking and beating the servants in public was like a shrew cursing in the street, which made people feel ashamed.

Xi Luo said lightly: "Fourth madam, don't beat me anymore. If you kill me, you will be murdered."

As soon as Xi Luo said a word, the fourth lady immediately took back the legs that the fourth lady was about to kick again. She couldn't bear the crime of murder and silence.

Embarrassedly retreating to the side, the Fourth Madam gritted her silver teeth unwillingly and said, "You better be careful before you speak, you bitch."

The little girl looked at Xi Luo with tears in her eyes and said: "Princess, if everything you say is true, you will see the Fourth Madam."

Xi Luo nodded slightly and said: "Your Majesty, the truth of the matter is like this, it is the Fourth Madam who wants to use the hands of the Emperor to frame the concubine." How the Emperor will deal with the following matters depends solely on the Emperor's own wishes.

How could the fourth lady be willing to bear such a crime? She stared at Xi Luo bitterly and said: "Princess, it is too rash to convict me with a little girl. If this girl was you, you would have What about the collusion?"

"It's clear that you hold a grudge against the emperor and want to murder the emperor to avenge your Xi family, but now that the matter is revealed, you want to place the blame on me. You don't want me to take the blame for you."

Xi Luo said coldly: "If my concubine really has the intention of harming others, she won't just use a pack of expired arsenic, let alone let people find out on the spot."

"Do you think this kind of clumsy trick can cross the sky?"

"What you want is the life of my concubine, not the life of the emperor. You have already made up your mind. The emperor will always have slaves to try the dishes, so it doesn't matter if the incident happens, because the emperor will be the first to punish you." It must be someone who cooks."

"Fourth madam, why do you still have to argue now? Do you have to let the whole palace be implicated because of you alone? Have you ever thought that if the emperor really cares about it, then all of us, including the prince, will be in trouble?" I want to be buried with you because of you, and you even resorted to such means for your own selfishness."

King Hao Han, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said coldly at this moment: "Come here, pull this lowly servant girl who is delusional in framing the princess and take fifty punishments."

What was supposed to be the murder of the emperor was taken lightly, but it turned into framing the princess. There is a world of difference between these two crimes.

Murdering the emperor is serious enough to kill the whole family, and framing the princess is at best a housework of the palace, and if it is serious, it will be driven out of the palace.

The emperor's face was gloomy, and what he wanted to say was finally swallowed in his stomach. The fourth wife was immediately carried outside the courtyard by two strong women, and she was punished. When did the thin-skinned and tender fourth wife suffer This kind of humiliation, once the stick came down, it hurt her so much that she almost died.

Of course, King Haohan was not satisfied with such a punishment, she had already preached to the outside world: "The pen and ink will serve you."

The servants quickly brought up the pen and ink. This matter has become a housework of the vast palace. The emperor couldn't say anything even if he wanted to say something. He could only stare at Xi Luo bitterly. This hateful woman, Coming here turned things around.

King Haohan wrote a letter of divorce with a few strokes, and ordered: "Dongyue, send someone to send the fourth lady back to her natal home in a while."

Dongyue hurriedly stepped forward to take the letter of divorce and withdrew, and King Haohan then turned to the emperor and said with a bit of guilt: "I have already dealt with that lowly maidservant, which surprised the emperor."

The emperor couldn't get angry, and he didn't know how to get angry, so he just walked away in anger, without staying for a moment.

Finally sent away this troublesome King of Hell, and the Fourth Madam's responsibilities are almost finished. After fifty battles, the Fourth Madam is almost out of breath, so King Haohan directly sent her back to her natal home .
