Rebirth of the Abandoned Concubine: The Poison Goddess Doctor

Chapter 354 Medicine Bottle, Prepared Long Ago

Yingchu and several imperial physicians checked separately, and the several imperial physicians checked very carefully, but Yingchu just picked up things casually to have a look, and then put them back where they were, with a very perfunctory attitude.

Chang Shun followed behind her, hesitating to speak, it was the county lord who proposed to make the decision for the second prince, is she caring or not?
An imperial physician took out a small medicine bottle from a drawer, poured out a few pills the size of soybeans, sniffed them under his nose, and immediately frowned, he said to the other imperial physicians: "Take a look at these pills." !"

Several imperial physicians came over, and the pills were passed around in their hands, with serious expressions on their faces.

"The problem lies in the pill," said the imperial physician who found the pill, "it's the same poison as the second prince."

Several imperial physicians nodded, looked at each other, and went to report to Emperor Ming together.

Emperor Ming pinched the small medicine bottle in his hand and looked at it. It was Hua Yingchu's special medicine bottle, with the word "flower" printed on the bottom of the bottle, and it was this kind of bottle that Hua Yingchu gave him the antidote before.

Emperor Ming threw the medicine bottle at Yingchu and said, "See for yourself whether the pills inside are from you to Concubine Zhen."

Yingchu knew at a glance that it was not. Although these pills were almost the same as the ones she made, but because there was no spiritual spring, the surface of the pills was slightly less glossy and delicate.

Yingchu crushed a pill and rubbed it on her fingertips to make sure that these were indeed fake. "Your Majesty, my concubine did send a few bottles of pills to Concubine Zhen, but it wasn't these few bottles."

"Your frivolous sentence was replaced by others, do you want to shirk responsibility?" Concubine Dong said coldly, "Concubine Zhen believes in you so much, and you murdered her prince. You are really ungrateful and cruel!"

Yingchu said: "Your Majesty is so sure that the murderer is a concubine, could it be that your Majesty saw me poisoned with her own eyes?"

"The evidence of the crime is convincing, do I still need to see it with my own eyes?" Concubine Dong Huanggui said, "You hate the emperor for confiscating the Duke Qi's house, and then murdered the prince to vent his anger. The second prince is undoubtedly the easiest target. Concubine Zhen trusts you very much and treats you very well." If you don’t even check the things you sent, the second prince who was harmed died at a young age. Not only you are responsible for this matter, Concubine Zhen should also be punished!"

Emperor Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, he didn't think Hua Yingchu would do such a stupid thing as poisoning the prince to death, but it may not be true that Dong said she hated him.No one can see what Hua Yingchu is thinking in his heart.

"Master Hua," Emperor Ming said, "You said that the medicine was changed, what evidence do you have?"

"This medicine bottle is the evidence." Yingchu clasped the bottle body with her fingers, making a thumping sound, "You can tell from the sound that this is not my medicine bottle."

As Yingchu said, he threw the medicine bottle on the ground and broke it into pieces.She took out another medicine bottle that looked exactly the same from her sleeve, and threw it on the ground.

The fragments of the two medicine bottles were presented together in front of everyone, and it was easy to see the difference between the two.The former one is a single-layer bottle with a white liner, while the latter is a double-layer bottle with a light yellow liner.

"All the pills I refine are put in this special porcelain bottle to better preserve the properties of the medicine," Yingchu said. There is a universe inside, leaving such an obvious flaw."

Emperor Ming took out the same medicine bottle from his body, and with a slight snap of his thumb and forefinger, the medicine bottle broke in two from the middle, and it was indeed a double-layer light yellow liner.

The queen's eyes flickered, and the emperor actually carried Hua Yingchu's empty medicine bottle with him!
Concubine Dong Huanggui didn't have time to pay attention to this point, she was terrified, she just asked someone to change the medicine in the medicine bottle, she didn't change the medicine bottle, how could this happen?Did the people below do something they shouldn't do?
wrong!Concubine Dong Huanggui quickly realized that this must be a trap that Hua Yingchu had prepared a long time ago, and the medicine bottle was clearly her own!

Concubine Dong Huanggui had a good idea, this was indeed the precaution Yingchu had made early in the morning.Dangers are everywhere in the palace, so she sent the pills into the palace just in case, the medicine bottle she used was different from the usual one.

It was originally just a precaution out of caution, but I didn't expect it to be useful one day.Xun Feixing was too innocent, she specially helped her to promote two smart and loyal palace servants, they have been doing very well, this time, there must be an inner ghost in the Star Palace!
Concubine Dong Huanggui and Yingchu's gazes collided, and there was a cold murderous intent to put the other to death in each other's eyes, and they did not hide it at all.

"Your Majesty, since the Hua family is planning to murder the prince, of course they will be fully prepared," said Dong Huangguifei, "No one knows the difference between the two medicine bottles. She must have used a different medicine bottle on purpose. Deny it after the fact, trying to escape the punishment!"

Yingchu sneered: "Your Majesty insisted that I was the one who poisoned you just based on guesswork. Can the concubine also guess? Madam, you hate Concubine Zhen for being favored by the emperor, and you are afraid that the second prince will threaten the position of the eldest prince, and you always despise your concubine." He was a thorn in the side, so he killed the second prince and planted the blame on the concubine!"

"You are full of blood!" Concubine Dong's voice could not help but become sharp, "What is the status of this palace, why should I be jealous of a small concubine, the eldest prince can have many brothers to support each other, I am too happy! Your next step Poisoning people, and even daring to sow discord, is a crime worthy of death!"

Yingchu noticed that the eldest son of the emperor was looking at her, and glanced over indifferently.

Li Chengyu immediately looked away and said: "Father, my son sometimes goes out of the palace and sees other people's brothers and friends. I am really envious, so I really like the emperor. Although the mother concubine and the county lord have some misunderstandings, but Those are just trivial things, mother and concubine will never murder the emperor's younger brother, please learn from father!"

Yingchu is indifferent, the eldest son of the emperor may have expressed goodwill to her, but when their interests conflict, there is no doubt that they will defend themselves and stand on the opposite side.

Emperor Ming's expression was unpredictable: "I am naturally willing to believe that this matter has nothing to do with any of you. I will give you a chance now. The real culprit will stand up by yourself. I will give you a lighter sentence. The crime is not as good as your family. Otherwise, let me find out the murderer myself. The nine clans will be killed!"

After a while, no one stood up.

"Okay, very good," Emperor Ming smiled, "It's been a long time since I started killing people!"

He swept his long eyes and said coldly: "The poison flowed into the Star Palace, and it is inseparable from the slaves here. They were all arrested and interrogated one by one. If no one would confess, they were all killed. All the family members were sold as crimes." slave!"

All the palace servants inside and outside the palace were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please forgive me! I don't know anything about this servant, and I will never dare to betray Concubine Zhen and murder the second prince. I beg the emperor to forgive me and my family! "

Chang Shun saw that Emperor Ming's face was extremely dangerous, and immediately shouted: "Shut up! Anyone who yells will cut off his tongue! If you don't want to be punished, tell what you know, or you will all die!"

A court lady secretly glanced at Yingchu, Yingchu nodded imperceptibly, she immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty! I saw Zique sneaking into the queen's bedroom more than half a month ago, Zique must be a traitor!"

The palace maid named Zique immediately turned pale, and exclaimed: "This servant is not a traitor! This servant is just cleaning your mother's room! There is a grievance between Bai Ling and this servant, and she intentionally wronged this servant!"

"That's not the time to clean up at all," Bai Ling said, "And you're sneaky and sneaky, so you must be haunted!"

Zi Que anxiously explained: "The maidservant delayed the cleaning time at that time. She was afraid of being punished, so she quietly went in to clean it. The maidservant never did anything to murder the empress or His Highness!"

"You're lying!" Bai Ling said, "Concubine Zhen is kind-hearted, so she was coaxed by you with a few words. You can never fool the emperor! Your majesty knows that Zique's sneaky behavior is more than that once, and she is absolutely inseparable from this matter! "

"Your Majesty, Bailing hates her mother and loves her servants more, so she wronged her servants," Zique said, "My servants once saw her talking to the county lord behind her back, if there are spies around her, it must be Bailing!"

The Queen said: "You two servants are good at biting each other. It seems that one of you must have a problem. Your Majesty, I think you should check them out." The Queen looked at Concubine Dong, "Concubine Dong, you What do you think?"

Imperial Concubine Dong and the Empress looked at each other, and said fearlessly: "What the Empress said is that they should be investigated carefully, especially this Bai Ling, the concubine is very curious, what is she plotting with Hua Shi in private!"

The queen didn't see the slightest strangeness on Concubine Dong's face, and felt a little disappointed.Their attention was on each other, and no one noticed the unnatural flash across the face of the eldest son of the emperor.

Emperor Ming only had one word: "Check!"

Bai Ling and Zi Que were taken down for careful interrogation, and a few others went to search their residence. The other palace people survived for the time being, and when someone interrogated Bai Ling and Zi Que, they all answered everything and cooperated very well.

After a while, the searcher came back and said: "Your Majesty, the servant found a secret compartment in Zique's room, and found a jade pendant inside, please take a look at it, Your Majesty."

Zique was stunned, why didn't she know that there was a hidden compartment in her room, and what jade pendant was there? !

Chang Shun took the jade pendant into his hands, and when his gaze caught sight of the jade pendant's appearance, he was startled, he quickly lowered his gaze, and held the jade pendant in front of Emperor Ming.

Emperor Ming picked up the python-patterned jade ring, and a white jade bead in the middle, and turned around to see that the word "Yu" was engraved on it.This word seems to have been rubbed by someone many times, and the sharp edges and corners have become rounded.

Emperor Ming hung the jade ring on his finger, and shot his sharp eyes at the eldest son of the emperor: "Cheng Yu, please explain to me why your jade pendant is in the hands of the maid of the Star Palace?"

When the eldest son of the emperor saw the jade pendant, his face changed, but he concealed it quickly, and the fear in his eyes was also deeply suppressed.Facing Emperor Ming's questioning, Li Chengyu's expression of doubts was just right, and he answered calmly: "I don't know, I haven't worn this jade pendant for a long time, and I thought I kept it in the cabinet, but unexpectedly will be here."
