Xiangmen black-bellied woman

Chapter 408 Murder?
Lin Feiying sat in her exclusive seat, receiving the blessings from the wives and young ladies around her, the pride on her face became more and more obvious, she tried her best to restrain the excitement in her heart, and tried to imitate Shen Ninghua's appearance so that her expression became cold and indifferent, Cope with the people around you and enjoy the high-profile sense of superiority.

Baili Junyi sneered softly, and said softly by picking up vegetables: "Ninghua, look at Lin Feiying."

Shen Ninghua glanced lightly, but didn't see anything, and asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

"She's learning from you."

follow me?Shen Ninghua couldn't help but paused slightly, and looked at Lin Feiying's proud face again, but she really didn't see that she was imitating herself.

Baili Junyi picked up a chopstick dish for her: "The dishes at today's banquet are good, eat more."

Shen Ninghua doesn't have much appetite recently, but she will reluctantly eat some of the dishes brought by Baili Junyi.

Baili Qingcang seemed very happy. After solving the matter of Baili Junyi, the big stone in his heart was a lot lighter. With him in charge, other princes would pay attention to him, plus his deterrent power to the ministers , the court can be more stable.

Bu Yonghan, who was sitting next to Bu Jinglan, suddenly got up with his wine glass in his hand: "Your Majesty, I still remember that you promised to find a good husband for me at the Xichen Banquet, and now it's all the farewell banquet. There is no shadow of Ruyi Langjun yet."

There have been too many things happening recently and too much trouble, Baili Qingcang really forgot about this matter, and now he is in a good mood, and he couldn't help saying: "I said I would find a good husband for you. I remember saying that If there is any young talent you like, tell me, I will personally give you a marriage, and you proposed it today, who is it that you have taken a fancy to?"

Bu Yonghan slightly pursed his lips and smiled, blushing a little more on his cheeks, watching the eyes of many princes from aristocratic families move slightly, Bu Yonghan herself is a rare beauty, plus she was favored by the royal family of Dayue Kingdom Education, behavior and behavior are dignified and elegant, but the character is extraordinarily lively and cheerful, with the innocence and straightforwardness of ignorance of the world. Among the well-educated and gentle ladies in Da'an Kingdom, it is particularly refreshing.

"Your Majesty, which son in Da'an is better than yours?"

Baili Qingcang was taken aback for a moment, and then scanned around among the princes: "Why, you have taken a fancy to my son?" There was no displeasure on his face, but he couldn't help frowning in his heart. The backyard was full, but Baili Junyi's backyard was still vacant as a side concubine. Could it be that Bu Yonghan took a fancy to the fifth child?

Baili Qingcang was not the only one who had this idea, and more eyes focused on Baili Junyi for a while.

Baili Junyi raised his head, put down the chopsticks for holding vegetables, and looked at everyone with a little doubt: "What do you see me doing? Hey, Brother Sanhuang, are you interested in Princess Yonghan? Although the concubine gave it, but Haven’t you been married yet? Royal Father is the most magnanimous, if you are affectionate, and talk to Royal Father, Father will definitely understand, take a look, didn’t Royal Father agree to let me guard Ninghua and live alone?”

Having said that, everyone immediately looked away, how could they have forgotten that the person in front of them was Baili Qingcang, the most unreasonable person who played cards against common sense, he dared to resist the decree for a few concubines before, but now he is With Tianxian in front of him, I'm afraid he won't raise his eyes.

The anger in Bu Yonghan's eyes flashed, and then he quickly returned to normal: "Your Majesty, the fifth prince's affection for his wife is really enviable..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Bu Jinglan on the side yelled: "Yonghan, come back to Dayue Kingdom, you can choose any good man, don't make trouble, sit down quickly."

The third prince, who had just been blocked by Baili Junyi and blushed, said, "Could it be that Princess Yonghan is really interested in the fifth prince?"

Bu Yonghan took a deep look at Baili Junyi, then lowered his head.Although he didn't speak, his actions said it all.

At this time, a courtier in the corner suddenly stood up: "Your Majesty, this matter must never happen."

Baili Qingcang couldn't help frowning, and it was Zhang Xun, the servant of the Ministry of Rites who spoke: "Zhang Aiqing, what do you want?"

Zhang Xun's face turned red when he spoke, and his eyes were a little confused: "The emperor... It's not that the minister is talking too much, but now it's spread outside... that the fifth prince is actually the son of Princess Yunqing of Dayue Kingdom. Princess Han can be considered cousins, although the blood relationship is not considered close, but there is no example of cousins ​​getting married in the royal family unless the emperor accepts a concubine."

The officials sitting next to Zhang Xun were stunned. Unexpectedly, this Master Zhang said surprisingly: "This... Your Majesty, Master Zhang seems to be drunk."

Baili Qingcang's expression became extremely ugly, and his cold eyes fell on the lifeless Zhang Xun: "Zhang Aiqing, I have already issued a decree to announce to the world that the fifth prince is the child of Concubine Xiangui, what Princess Yunqing is, it is simply ridiculous talk."

Zhang Xun stood up tremblingly, with a drunken red on his face: "Your Majesty, I have not lied. This matter... um... has spread all over the world. Who in the capital doesn't know? It's just I am afraid that you will be angry, so I dare not report it to you. As the servant of the Ministry of Rites, I can't tell you the truth. You should let the emperor know the truth. Moreover, I accidentally discovered a big event..."

Baili Qingcang interrupted him angrily: "My investigation is not as clear as your little rite minister's investigation. How about you tell me the truth?"

Zhang Xun was stunned, and seemed to be a little more awake. He knelt on the ground with a plop, his fingers trembling, and was about to say something, but fell to the ground with an unsteady bang.

Baili Qingcang gave Zhang Xun a cold look, and waved to the guards to take him down: "Master Zhang is drunk, talking nonsense for a while, take him down to sober up."

The guards stepped forward to pull him, but found that Zhang Xun was clutching his chest and twitching continuously, and within a moment he was foaming at the mouth and died.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang died suddenly."

What?Baili Qing raised his eyes violently, and the muscles in the corners of his eyes moved slightly: "It's just that I drank some wine, how could I die suddenly?"

An imperial doctor hurried up to check Zhang Xun's condition, and he was shocked: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang died of poisoning. It seems that he drank highly poisonous wine."

"What? How could there be poisonous wine at such a good banquet?"

The ministers who had just had a drink all felt their stomachs burning, staring at the wine glasses in front of them, for fear that their own wine glasses were not clean.

Baili Qingcang felt cold in his heart: "Bring over the wine glass that Zhang Xun used and let the imperial physician examine it."

The maid at the side quickly brought up the wine glass, her face pale.The imperial physician sniffed the remaining wine in the wine glass, and frowned tightly: "Your Majesty, the wine contains highly poisonous Hedinghong."

"My God, this..."

"Hedinghong, I also drank a lot of wine just now."

Baili Junyi remained unmoved, stretched out his hand to hold Shen Ninghua, and glanced at the things on the table: Is there something wrong with the things on our table?
Shen Ninghua shook her head slightly: the things on the table are extremely clean and there is no problem.

The imperial doctor was sweating coldly: "Your Majesty, this crane crest red is highly poisonous, and there is no cure for the medicine after taking it. It is better to check all the drinks."

Concubine Qi hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, the concubine is willing to accept the punishment for her lack of supervision, but what the imperial physician said is right, it's better to check the drinks and dishes first."

Baili Qingcang nodded with a cold face: "Yes."

Baili Junyi was relieved, playing with Shen Ninghua's hand while watching the farce in front of him.

It took a while for the imperial doctor to finish the inspection. Fortunately, except for Zhang Xun's wine glass, there was nothing wrong with the other people's tables.Hearing this result, Baili Qingcang's expression softened slightly.

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed guard saw that there seemed to be a memorial in Zhang Xun's sleeve pocket, and pulled it out: "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang has a memorial on him."

"Playbook? Submit it."

The servant hurriedly presented the memorial, Baili Qingcang opened it, and when he saw the content on it, his face suddenly sank: "Old Five, you should also take a look."

Baili Junyi got up, took the memorial from the servant, read the content at a glance, couldn't help but pause, then raised his eyes to look at Baili Qingcang: "Father, Zhang Xun actually said that my son has evil intentions, This is absolutely nothing, he actually has the guts to openly frame his son, please look into it."

The third prince said: "My lord said that he had discovered a major event before, but he died of poison before he finished speaking. Is this too coincidental?"

Baili Junyi looked over: "What do you want to say, brother Sanhuang?"

The third prince looked at Baili Qingcang: "Royal father, I don't have any other intentions, but I just want to talk about the doubts in my heart. How could poisonous wine suddenly appear at this good banquet, and only Mr. Zhang has a problem? And , Mr. Zhang died before he finished his front foot, his back foot suddenly died, it makes people feel unusual, please pay attention to father."

Baili Qingcang looked at the third prince with deep eyes: "According to your opinion, what problem do you think?"

"My son feels that this matter seems to be deliberately silenced!"

Li Guifei gritted her teeth at the side, why is the youngest so impatient, the matter has come out, just wait and see how it changes, what is he meddling in!Aren't you afraid of getting yourself involved?

Concubine Li is used to forbearance in the harem, so she naturally feels that forbearance is nothing for a while, but the third prince was too glorious before, and now he has been repeatedly frustrated by Baili Junyi, and the long-term anger has accumulated, and he can't wait to strangle him to death , how could you miss this opportunity to add insult to injury?

Baili Qingcang narrowed his eyes: "Then who do you think is the most suspect?"

The third prince glanced at Baili Junyi: "I don't know the truth of the matter, so I don't care about guessing."

"Zhang Xun said that he discovered Baili Junyi's life experience, saying that he is the son of Princess Yunqing, and that he has something wrong in his heart and intends to assassinate me, firstly to seek power and usurp the throne, and secondly, to avenge his mother and concubine!"

The third prince was full of surprise: "It turned out...it turned out to be like this...Father, the fifth prince shouldn't be like this, right?"

A courtier retorted: "Your Majesty, the fifth prince has always been rebellious, who knows if he really has such thoughts?"

"Yes, please look into it, Your Majesty."
