Rebirth: Emperor, Take This

A few days later, the government released the man again.

Chen min'er's mother couldn't accept this fact. Under the stimulation of the wind, there was no one to take care of it. She also went a few days later. When she was found, the body smelled.

So almost overnight, the Chen family broke and died.

In Shouan palace, the Empress Dowager sat on the main seat and looked at Liu Ruyan, who was kneeling but looked calm. She was not happy in her heart and asked, "does the matter of cherishing concubines, huifei, have anything to do with you?"

Liu Ruyan calmly looked at the Empress Dowager's sight and returned: "if you return to the empress dowager, Xi's concubine died of poisoning. My concubine lives in prison. I don't know why Xi's concubine will come to visit my concubine. Moreover, where did I get the poison?"

"Sophistry!" the Empress Dowager had a very bad impression of Liu Ruyan at this time. She patted her seat and stood up. Looking at Liu Ruyan, she accused her: "when Xi Bin died, you were the only one beside her. Could she still commit suicide?"

"The concubine doesn't know. As for why she was poisoned and what kind of poison was in the, the Empress Dowager might as well ask the imperial doctor."

"Pass on the imperial doctor, pass on the work." the Empress Dowager gave Liu Ruyan a cold look and raised her voice.

Immediately someone came in through the door. It was a slightly elderly Doctor Zhang Yuyi.

Zhang Yuyi bowed his body and said to the empress dowager, "tell the Empress Dowager that what is in the Empress Dowager's wife is arsenic, and the micro minister is unable to return to heaven."

"Do you know where this arsenic comes from?" the Empress Dowager frowned and asked again.

"This..." Zhang shook his head and didn't know how to answer. After all, he was just a royal doctor. He was directly summoned to prison. When he got there, there were many people waiting. It was a mess, and he couldn't tell.

Lin Jinxiu stood quietly beside her, but inadvertently touched Liu Ruyan's eyes. After being slightly stunned, she immediately shifted her eyes.

"Empress dowager, Xi Bin came to see my concubine to deliver cakes for my concubine." Liu Ruyan said, "my concubine also watched Xi Bin eat cakes before vomiting blood. There must be something wrong with the cakes."

Lin Jinxiu felt nervous when she heard the words, but when she looked back, Hong LAN shook her head slightly to Lin Jinxiu, motioned Lin Jinxiu not to act rashly and exposed herself.

"What about the cakes? I heard that they didn't see any cakes when they went." the Empress Dowager felt that the matter was complex and didn't seem so simple. Her tone was also relaxed, but she was still confused.

The case was burning, and father-in-law Xu summoned outside the door: "Your Majesty has arrived -"

Lin Jinxiu was startled by the sound. Knowing that she was overreacting, she immediately calmed down and turned around to salute lianchengming with the people.

"Why did the emperor come?" the Empress Dowager frowned slightly, thinking that Lian Chengming had come to speak for him.

Lian Chengming only said, "I heard that the empress mother was interrogating her concubines. My son's ministers came specially to have a look."

Immediately someone took lianchengming to his seat. Liu Ruyan turned to look at lianchengming, took out half of the plum blossom cake from his sleeve and said to the empress dowager, "empress dowager, this is the last plum blossom cake to eat. At that time, Xi Bin was talking to his concubine. After Xi Bin died, the plum blossom cake fell into the hands of his concubine."

The mammy beside the Empress Dowager received the Empress Dowager's eyes and immediately came forward to pick up the cake and show it to Doctor Zhang.

Zhang Yuyi just probed with a silver needle and said, "tell the Empress Dowager that there is a lot of arsenic in this cake. If you eat it by mistake, you will lose your life."

The people in the room suddenly burst into an uproar. Lin Jinxiu turned white and looked at the red orchid.

Honglan was watching by the prison at that time. When Fang had an accident, she took advantage of the confusion, went in and secretly brought out the food box. Who knows that Liu Ruyan still had one in his hand.

"Empress dowager, my concubine lives in prison. It's impossible to get arsenic and make such exquisite cakes. There must be someone behind this. I want to get rid of my concubine through my difficulties."

Seeing that the time had come, Liu Ruyan leaned down and said to the Empress Dowager.

"Please use the Empress Dowager's mirror to show justice to your concubines."

"I've heard that Xi Bin and empress Hui have always disagreed. Is this cake originally made by Xi Bin to empress Hui?" the speaker is Lin Changzai standing on the edge: "Xu wants empress Hui to believe that there is no problem with the cake. Who knows that she ate the poisonous cake by mistake."

But the Empress Dowager didn't answer again. She just looked at Lin Chang and scanned a circle of concubines standing on the side. Her eyes were fierce: "anyway, even if it has nothing to do with you, you can't shirk your responsibility for murdering the emperor's heir. Can you plead guilty?"

"Empress dowager, it has nothing to do with my concubines." Liu Ruyan straightened his upper body and explained to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager just wanted to say something. Lian Chengming raised his hand and interrupted, "empress mother, please allow your son to say a few words. Several people want you to meet."

As soon as the voice fell, several servant girls and eunuchs came in. Lian Chengming saw that the Empress Dowager looked unhappy, but he nodded to Lian Chengming and said: "Of course, these are the palace people who swept in the imperial garden. On that day, Princess Hui clashed with Princess Li. Although they are not close, they can always see clearly. The Empress Dowager might as well listen to what they say and make a free conclusion."

Then Lian Chengming winked at a palace man. The palace man came forward and blessed the Empress Dowager: "that day, the slaves were sweeping in the corridor and saw empress Hui standing with empress Li. Empress Li also held empress Hui's hand.

Empress Hui intended to break free, but she was not able to break free. Then, empress Li fell to the ground somehow, and you arrived... "

"The slaves and maidservants don't know why, and they don't dare to talk..."

The servant girl was timid, but somehow she told the story.

The other palace people said eight, nine and ten, but they made it very clear that Lin Jinxiu took the initiative to hold Liu Ruyan's hand.

Before the Empress Dowager could speak, someone immediately came out and said, "it's a misunderstanding. It's two empresses playing."

"Yes, but Princess Li was too careless. Princess Hui should have held some."

"There was a misunderstanding. Empress huifei was also frightened. Xu didn't react."

Liu Ruyan frowned. When he wanted to argue, his arm was suddenly held by Lian Chengming. He stood up along Lian Chengming's strength, and only heard Lian Chengming say, "I've wronged you these days."

The Empress Dowager's face was unhappy, and she didn't say anything, but Lin Jinxiu's face on one side was hard to see as pig liver color.
