Rebirth of the Abandoned Concubine: The Poison Goddess Doctor

Chapter 247: Heavenly Thunder Falls, Determining Life and Death

The eunuch's words sounded reasonable, and the Empress Dowager looked at the Empress with suspicion.

Concubine Lou said: "It's no wonder the empress has been speaking for Hua. So you were on the side. The imperial physician predicted that Feng Zhaorong's child is likely to be a prince. No wonder the empress can't sit still."

The queen was flustered and angry. She had bad intentions for Feng Zhaorong's child, but she didn't have time to do anything in the future. She heard from the imperial physician that Feng Zhaorong was pregnant with a freak.

At this time, she didn't understand that all this was planned by the imperial concubine, who wanted to catch her and Feng Zhaorong at once. Hua Yingchu had learned the secret by accident, so she was also involved, and concubine Zhen couldn't escape.

Killing four birds with one stone, the imperial concubine really has a good plan!

The queen looked at Concubine Dong's always innocent baby face, and said coldly: "Such an obvious conspiracy, can you really deceive everyone! Just bribe a eunuch, and frame the palace and the county with empty teeth. If another court lady appears at this time to testify against the imperial concubine, will the imperial concubine be the culprit?"

Concubine Dong Huanggui said: "This matter has nothing to do with the concubine, why should the empress involve the concubine? Does it mean that you have harmed a little prince, and you want to harm the concubine and the eldest prince?"

"You!" The queen's calm expression was broken by anger, "If you want to commit a crime, there is no reason to worry about it! My palace is upright and sitting upright, and I am not afraid of anyone's frame!"

The Empress Dowager, who had not spoken all the time, said slowly: "The testimony of a few servants alone is not enough to convict unless there is other evidence."

The Empress Dowager said dissatisfiedly: "With so many slaves and Feng Zhaorong's testimony, how can we not be convicted? There should be a limit to the Empress Dowager's protection of the Hua family!"

Her almost accusatory words made the Empress Dowager's eyes turn cold, and her tone also dropped a little: "Aijia didn't shield anyone, but he didn't want to wrong the innocent, and he didn't want the real culprit behind the scenes to go unpunished."

"Who is the real culprit behind the scenes, I can't be more clear!" The queen mother became emotional, "The two grandchildren of the Ai family died young, and they are all related to the Hua family. No matter what happens today, the Ai family will never forgive her!"

Thinking of Mu Nuanqing's miscarriage, the Empress Dowager's eyes softened, but her expression was still disapproving.They all knew the reason for the child's miscarriage, and they shouldn't blame Yingchu.

Moreover, this matter not only involves Yingchu, but also the queen.

It's just that the empress dowager uttered all the cruel words, obviously she couldn't listen to anything.

"Emperor, what do you think?" The Empress Dowager asked Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming turned his eyes around the empress, imperial concubine Dong and others, and finally landed on Yingchu: "Hua Yingchu, do you have something to say?"

Yingchu took two steps forward: "My daughter has a few questions and wants to ask witnesses."

"Say." Emperor Ming said.

Yingchu looked at the eunuch kneeling on the ground, and said, "What's your name? Which palace are you from?"

The eunuch replied: "My slave, Xiao Liuzi, serves by Mrs. Yu's side."

Yu Guiren is related to the queen, but she is weak and doesn't like to go out, so she didn't show up for such a big event today.

"So, the queen colluded with me, and the person in charge of spreading the message is not the queen's confidant, but you, an outsider?" Yingchu said.

Xiao Liuzi lowered her head and said: "The empress is worried that if the matter is leaked, she is afraid that she will be held accountable, so she doesn't use the servants around her."

"Even if what you said is reasonable," Yingchu said, "The empress empress and I conspired to murder the emperor's heir, how could you know such a secret thing?"

"That's right!" The Empress said coldly, "If I really want to do such a heinous thing, I will definitely hide it tightly, and it is impossible for the servants around me to know. How did you know?"

Xiao Liuzi's palms were sweating coldly, thinking of excuses in a panic.

Emperor Ming said: "If you can't answer, then you don't need to answer."

There is no need to answer this, and there is no doubt that I will never have to speak.

Xiao Liuzi hurriedly said: "The servant overheard it! The servant overheard the conversation between Auntie Zhangyi and the county monarch next to the queen!"

"Really?" Yingchu laughed, "Where did you hear that?"

"Slave, I don't remember," Xiao Liuzi wiped his palms on his sleeves. "When I heard this, I was so frightened that I ran away, so I don't remember where I was."

He probably also knew that his words were not convincing enough, so he added swearingly: "Every word the servant said is true!"

Yingchu asked again: "You said the queen sent someone to kill you?"

"Yes." Xiao Liuzi looked up at her cautiously.

"Roll up your sleeves." Yingchu said.

Xiao Liuzi rolled up her sleeves, revealing her bloody arm. There was a long wound on her arm, which was not deep, but it looked terrifying.

Yingchu's expression darkened immediately, and he shouted: "Bold slave, how dare you lie in front of the Holy One!"

Xiao Liuzi trembled all over, and shouted repeatedly: "I have been wronged, I have not lied!"

"Your wound is deep on the outside and shallow on the inside. It's clear that you scratched it yourself. The wound will become shallower and shallower when you can't help the pain later on. If someone really wants to kill you, the wound will definitely not be like this." Ying Chu said coldly Said, "If you are not convinced, you can ask the imperial doctor to examine the wound to see if I have wronged you!"

Xiao Liuzi suddenly turned pale.

"You don't need to call a doctor," Emperor Ming said, not only Yingchu could see something wrong with the wound, but he could also see it, "Take this slave to the Punishment Department and let me pry his mouth open!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life! Your Majesty, spare your life!" Xiao Liuzi kowtowed and begged for mercy. After entering the Punishment Department, he could not seek to live or die, and the hell on earth was nothing more than that.

Imperial Concubine Dong pursed her lips tightly, looking at Xiao Liuzi with murderous intent in her eyes, a person who can't even bear a knife wound, it's hard to guarantee that he won't make a confession if he enters the Punishment Division!

Feng Zhaorong swallowed uneasily. The servants behind her all had cold hands and feet. Mr. Miaoyijun was too meticulous. They framed her without any preparation, and they might follow in Xiaoliuzi's footsteps.

Looking at Xiao Liuzi being escorted away, Yingchu's eyes turned and fell on these people, and their hearts almost jumped out of their throats.

At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from outside, startling everyone.

Not long after, an eunuch rushed into Hongfu Palace in a panic, and tripped over the threshold. He crawled in and reported, "Your Majesty, something is wrong! The southwest wall of the Taimiao fell down!"

The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager stood up suddenly, and Emperor Ming also stood up from his chair and walked down the steps.

"What's going on?" Emperor Ming's voice was deep and cold.

"It was a lightning strike!" The eunuch said in horror, "Someone saw a thunderbolt falling from the sky for no reason, knocking down the southwest wall, and found a dead snake under the wall."

The Empress Dowager said urgently: "Quickly pass on to Qin Tianjian!"

Almost at the same time, another person came to report: "Your Majesty, Lord Qin Tianjian please see me!"

"Xuan!" Emperor Ming didn't care that this was the empress dorm, so he directly ordered his ministers to be brought here.

Master Cao came in a hurry, and before saluting, Emperor Ming said: "Excuse me, Aiqing came because of the collapse of the southwestern wall of the Taimiao?"

"Exactly," Cao Daren said, "an hour ago, I suddenly felt uneasy, so I made a divination. The hexagram showed that a monster was about to be born in the direction of the palace, absorbing the luck of the Dayan royal family. The body is big, and the humble minister is afraid of making mistakes, so I will do the divination every quarter of an hour, and only after I am sure it is true, I dare to report to the emperor!"

Emperor Ming didn't fully believe in divination and asking the gods, but with the mentality that he would rather believe it, he kept supporting those people in Qintianjian.When Mr. Cao said that a monster was born through the belly, he was only dubious.

The Empress Dowager was convinced of this, and said: "The monster you are talking about, does it mean the child that Feng Zhaorong gave birth to?"

"If Feng Zhaorong gave birth half an hour ago, and no one else in the palace gave birth, then he is undoubtedly the one." Master Cao said solemnly.

"Impossible!" Feng Zhaorong yelled, "My child is obviously a prince, how could he be a monster! Mr. Cao, why did you accept Hua Yingchu's favor and slander me like this!"

"Shut up!" The Empress Dowager sternly said, she was usually kind and gentle, but when she suddenly got angry, Feng Zhaorong was so frightened that she immediately dared not speak.

The queen mother also had great trust in Qin Tianjian's divination, her expression kept changing, and said: "That child is a freak, is it because he is a monster?"

The Empress Dowager said: "Cao Qing, the monster died as soon as it was born, will it affect the Li family?"

Mr. Cao made another divination on the spot, then his face relaxed, and said: "The Empress Dowager can rest assured. The soul of the monster was born in the abdomen, and the body was trying to sneak into the Taimiao in vain, absorbing the dragon spirit of the previous emperors. Fortunately, it came from the sky. Shenlei, kill the monster's body. Since the child is dead, the monster's soul has no parasitic container, and its soul is scattered."

The empress dowager's tense expression slowly relaxed, and said: "Okay! Okay! Aijia will be rewarded!"

Mr. Cao kowtowed his head to thank him, and withdrew.

Although Emperor Ming did not fully believe in ghosts and spirits, the strangeness of the thunder from the sky and the abrupt collapse of the southwestern wall of the Taimiao, Mr. Cao's words are undoubtedly reassuring.

Xun Feixing pointed at Feng Zhaorong and the others angrily: "What do you have to say now? Feng Zhaorong gave birth to a monster, but he framed Yingchu, it's really vicious!"

"No, it's not," Feng Zhaorong was still struggling, "all of this must be caused by Hua Yingchu, she bribed Master Cao, she..."

Xun Feixing interrupted her: "I still want to quibble! Yingchu and I have treated you kindly, but you have repaid your kindness, and you still don't know how to repent!"

Feng Zhaorong desperately shook her head, she looked at the emperor pleadingly, but the emperor didn't even look at her, the empress dowager's eyes were indifferent, the empress dowager looked at her as if she was dead, and the other concubines were full of schadenfreude.

Feng Zhaorong's heart sank to the bottom, with fear and hatred at the same time, tears rushed down: "Your Majesty, my concubine is really innocent! Your Majesty, please say something!"

Emperor Ming really spoke as she wished: "Everyone in the Hongfu Palace will be executed!"

Feng Zhaorong's eyes widened in horror, and he shouted heart-piercingly: "The emperor spares my life! The emperor spares my life! This concubine doesn't want to die! This concubine is wronged!"

The servants behind her also kowtowed like garlic, crying and begging for mercy.

The guards rushed in and took them all to the yard, no matter how much they struggled and begged for mercy, it was useless.

The concubines and concubines in the hall felt cold all over, and the entire Hongfu Palace was full of exclamations. The door of the hall was wide open, and they could clearly see the people kneeling outside.

Feng Zhaorong, who was kneeling in the middle, was completely in a panic. Because he was struggling and crying so much, he was tied up mercilessly by the guards and his mouth was gagged.

Half an hour ago, she was still a promising concubine, but now she has fallen into the clouds and her reputation has been ruined, so she can only wait to die in embarrassment.

After counting the number of people, Eunuch Chang Shun gave an order, and everyone was strangled. After a while, there was a pile of corpses on the ground.
