Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 208 Killing the round step by step!

Baili Qingcang's eyes froze: "You said those who assassinated the imperial guards were captured alive by you?"

Chu Junyi cupped his hands and replied: "Not all of them were captured alive, only a few people were captured, but it is enough to ask for something."

Baili Qingcang ordered coldly: "Bring it up!"

Chu Junyi looked at the man in black who was brought up, the light in his eyes was as sharp as a knife: "Father, these people suddenly appeared to intercept and kill the imperial guards when the princess and sons were called into the palace. Wearing night clothes and covering their faces, they don't have any strong evidence of identity on their bodies. They can act secretly, but they don't, and they shouted to rescue the princess and ministers as soon as they came up. "

Noble Yin gritted his teeth, his eyes were full of resentment: "Who knows if what you said is true?"

Chu Junyi turned to look at her, but his handsome face was so cold that it made people tremble in his heart: "My lord, I made it very clear just now that all the Imperial Guards were present at that time, and the commander of the Imperial Guards can also testify."

"Although they themselves indicated that their identities are suspicious, they can't be regarded as evidence. Who knows if you did it on purpose?"

Chu Junyi sneered: "Those people took the lead in firing a cold arrow before they showed up. If it wasn't for my protection, the princess would be injured now. Excuse me, sir, is it necessary for me to act like this?"

"Then who can guarantee it?" Noble Yin still gritted his teeth and insisted.

Shen Ninghua frowned and interrupted Yin Guiren's words: "Your Majesty, the son-in-law has already said just now that he is right in front of you, so you can understand it after asking. Why do you have to be aggressive and insist on pouring dirty water on my head? Now you say You are so categorical, do you know something inside?"

"What can I know?"

Yin Guiren paused, looked up and saw Baili Qingcang's impatient expression, her heart shrank suddenly, she was able to be confident before, relying on the child she just lost, if she continues to mess around now, I'm afraid it will attract the emperor Doubt it.

The queen lowered her eyes, and a turbulence flashed across her calm eyes. Those black-clothed assassins had blood on their limbs and dislocated jaws. It was obvious that they had been abolished in martial arts and pulled out the poison sac they used to kill themselves.

The commander of the imperial guards stepped forward to wake up the man in black and detained him on the ground.

The headed man in black woke up and saw the resplendent and magnificent hall, subconsciously gritted his teeth hard, but didn't want to feel the emptiness in his mouth, only to realize that the poison sac had been pulled out.

Shen Ninghua said directly: "Father, these people look like dead soldiers at first glance. It takes a long time to simply ask questions, and the result may not be satisfactory. Some time ago, Ninghua and Chen Yuanzheng jointly researched a blind medicine that can make people feel sick. Relax your mind, only ten pills have been prepared, which can be used just right, I don't know what the father wants?"

"Pills to relax the mind?"

"That's right, this kind of pill is extremely powerful. If ordinary people take it, their minds will be swallowed by severe pain. Only those with strong willpower can survive it. The drug's effect is to blur the mind and allow people to answer questions. .”

"Try to use it." Baili Qingcang's eyes flashed, and he suddenly had an idea in his mind. The effect of this medicine can be said to be extremely miraculous. If it is used on people like imperial spies, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort.

Shen Ninghua nodded to Chen Yun: "Chen Yuanzheng..."

Chen Yun nodded, and ordered someone to go to the Imperial Hospital to get medicine for the assassin in black.

The man in black didn't respond at first, but suddenly his whole body convulsed after a while, rolling back and forth on the ground, sweating profusely.

The concubines sitting on the side turned their heads away one after another, clutching their chests and were too frightened to look any further.

Shen Ninghua lowered her eyes, her thoughts turned quickly. When she said that there was this kind of pill just now, the queen had a momentary flash.Although she adjusted quickly, she was still in her eyes, but after the man in black took the pill, although she looked a little nervous, she was not too flustered.

Could it be that she guessed wrong, these men in black were not sent by the queen, or the men in black didn't even know the true identity of their master.

The second possibility should be larger, and it seems that further investigation is needed.

Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Baili Qingcang stared closely at the men in black on the ground, and when they stopped convulsing, he asked coldly, "Who are you?"

The man in black's eyes were dull, and he was supported by the guards to kneel on the ground. Hearing Baili Qingcang's question, he replied a little dullly:
"Dead man."

"Who ordered you to assassinate the Guards?"

"master."

Baili Qingcang frowned, looked at Shen Ninghua and Chu Junyi, gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is your master?"

"master."

"Is your master Shen Ninghua or Chu Junyi?"

"No."

Baili Qingcang breathed a sigh of relief, he was sure it wasn't the two of them, he finally let go of his hanging heart, and was about to continue asking questions, but saw the man in black opened his mouth, spit out a big mouthful of black blood, and disappeared immediately sound.

Chen Yun stepped forward to check, and reported: "Report to the emperor, this man is dead, the effect of the pill is too strong, and it has caused great damage to the human body. It’s good to be able to hold on for a while.”

"How many pills are left?"

"Because the materials are rare, only ten pieces were made in total, one was used just now, and there are still nine left."

"You write down the materials and hand them over to me tomorrow."

"Yes, Wei Chen obeys the order."

In order to continue questioning, Baili Qingcang ordered another pill to be fed to the remaining man in black. Unfortunately, the man in black was not strong-willed, and before he had time to ask questions, he fell silent.

Baili Qingcang frowned and thought for a moment, then ordered the imperial guards to take the remaining assassins into the prison for safekeeping.

The queen's straight back slightly changed its curvature, and slowly relaxed.

Yin Guiren knelt on the ground, gritted his teeth tightly and tore at the handkerchief, the light in his eyes kept changing back and forth, the assassination of the Imperial Guard had nothing to do with Shen Ninghua, so what about Meilin's fire?

"emperor……"

Shen Ninghua turned her head to look at Mr. Yin with a smile that was not a smile: "Do you want to talk about Mei Lin's fire?"

"You... shouldn't Princess Merlin be on fire to explain it properly? After all, so many wives and young ladies have been injured, if they don't deal with it properly, then the adults above the court will not agree."

Shen Ninghua nodded, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty is right, the fire in Meilin needs to be investigated clearly. Father, son, I didn't understand at first, but now I finally figured it out. The series of things that happened today are clearly Deliberately set up a killing situation for my son!"

Baili Qingcang naturally noticed something was wrong, and when she heard Shen Ninghua say this, she nodded to signal her to continue.

"The thieves behind me first took advantage of the fact that my mother asked me for spices, causing problems for the spices collectively, and even found an imperial doctor to give false testimony. Murdering a concubine and the emperor's heir is a capital crime of treason. This is the first murder. In order to prevent my son from defending himself, the thief designed a second game, tampering with my son's plum grove, taking advantage of the timing of my plum appreciation banquet, causing the plum forest to catch fire and hurting all ladies and ladies. It's the princess who can't shirk the blame, I'm afraid she will be deprived of the title of princess, and I will die as an apology."

Baili Qingcang gritted his teeth: "This thief is really hateful!"

Shen Ninghua added: "Father, the third round is to use those black-clothed assassins to assassinate the imperial guards. According to the plan, she should want to kill me and my son-in-law directly. If it fails, she will shout loudly to rescue us. Assassinate For the imperial guards, this is almost equivalent to committing a rebellion, and it is difficult for a minister to atone for his crime even if he dies."

"You're right. The design of each pile is too ingenious. If it wasn't for your cleverness and your concubine's high martial arts skills to catch the black-clothed assassin, I'm afraid it would be difficult to get rid of your suspicion. Damn it, too It's too bad!" The civil and military officials knelt down and said nothing, they didn't expect things to evolve so quickly, and the back and forth were too violent.Just when everyone was amazed, Shen Ninghua spoke again.

"Father, there is a fourth round to kill!"

Everyone immediately focused their attention on her: "Is there a fourth one?"

"That's right." Shen Ninghua lowered her head and bent over to touch the ground. Her jade-colored fingertips brushed against the golden ground, and then put it on the tip of her nose to smell it. "Father, the ground has been smeared with poison."

Poison was painted on the main hall of Chengqian Palace?

Baili Qingcang was furious in his heart, this golden palace was the place where he went to court, and there were problems here, so where is there any safe place in his palace?

"Chen Yun, go and have a look!"

Chen Yun hurriedly stepped forward to check, and found no problems in other places, but when she checked the place where Shen Ninghua was kneeling, her eyebrows twitched fiercely: "Princess, get up quickly."

Shen Ninghua got up and stood aside.

Chen Yun checked carefully for a long time before reporting back with a solemn expression: "Reporting to the emperor, most of the ground in Chengqian Palace is fine, only the front one has been soaked in poison. I have never seen this kind of poisonous minister, but It is certain that after this poison comes into contact with the skin, it can penetrate into the human body through the skin, causing great harm."

"Ninghua, you found something wrong with the ground and are still kneeling on the ground?" Chu Junyi held Shen Ninghua's hand, his face was full of worry, "Father, can you let the princess go down to wash and change clothes?"

"Sure, Ninghua, go and change quickly, and let the imperial physician examine it for you."

Shen Ninghua shook her head: "Father, this kind of poisonous minister knows it. The name of the poison is deep-rooted. Once it touches the skin, it will seep into the human body through the pores. It is too late for you to find out. This poison is extremely cold and harmful to men. It’s nothing, it’s just a serious illness, if it’s for a woman, it will affect the offspring, those who are pregnant are prone to miscarriage, and those who are not pregnant may find it difficult to conceive a child in the future.”

"what?"

Chu Junyi held Shen Ninghua's hand tightly, his palm drenched with sweat: "Ninghua..."

Shen Ninghua shook back lightly, and quietly wrote "no" under the cover of her sleeves.

Chu Junyi's heart relaxed, and then he realized that he was covered in cold sweat.However, his performance was even more convincing. For a while, many concubines who were waiting at the side cried bitterly. They all knelt on the ground in front of them just now: "Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly and make decisions for the concubines and others. !"
