"What did you say?" Zhao Hanqing and Zhao Liexian asked in unison.
Zhao Liexian grabbed the big teapot by the collar and asked through gritted teeth: "Who is it? Who has the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard and dares to plot regicide!!"
Zhao Hanqing also looked at Imperial Doctor Fang on the side with a stern look on his face and said, "But is it true?"
Imperial Doctor Fang was sweating profusely and kept wiping the sweat away. He muttered: "Your Majesty... there are indeed signs of poisoning... "
Zhao Liexian became furious, raised his leg and kicked him: "Are you blind, old man? My father has been poisoned for so long, and you only realized it today? What's the use of your title of foreman and imperial doctor!"
Imperial Doctor Fang was kicked and rolled over. He immediately got up and knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness, Prince, Princess... please forgive me, please forgive me! I have never seen this poisonous person before. I just find it strange on weekdays, and... I thought it was..." As he spoke, he glanced at the big teapot timidly and muttered the following words.
But everyone knew what he was going to say: He thought it was the medicine in the big teapot that made the emperor indulge in sexual activities and empty his body. The symptoms of addiction to wine and sex and the symptoms of poisoning at the moment do seem to be somewhat similar. .
Zhao Liexian said angrily: "You bastard, what use are you! A waste of time! A freeloader! An old man!"
This incident almost forced Zhao Liexian into a desperate situation, turning him from a great situation to a desperate situation in an instant. Even though he was usually known for his suave and graceful demeanor, he couldn't hold it anymore at this time!
Imperial Doctor Fang was so scolded that he lost all dignity. He covered his face with his sleeves and kept sobbing. For a while, the sound of crying and cursing could not be heard in the Shuiyue Palace.
Zhao Hanqing suppressed his anger and said: "That's enough! Prince Ping, pay attention to etiquette and dignity!"
Only then did Zhao Liexian shut up, panting and glaring at Imperial Doctor Fang. He then turned to the big teapot and said, "What kind of poison was in my father's hands? As the altar of the Ministry of Rites, you are responsible for refining elixirs and medicines for him. Why didn't you notice at all?" Not coming out?"
The big teapot asked unceremoniously: "Prince Ping, as the prince of Prince Ping's mansion, do you know the names of every servant in the mansion?"
Zhao Liexian was furious. He glared at the big teapot fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "How outrageous! How dare you talk to me like this on a small altar!"
The big teapot pretended to bend down and salute, and said: "Your humble position offends me, please calm down. Although my humble position is rude and rude, my words are not rude. The altar of the Ministry of Rites is only responsible for refining elixirs, and it is impossible to cover everything, because I have to spend time with His Majesty day and night. I will take care of His Majesty's dragon body only when the time comes, but after all, I am not a royal doctor because of my humble position, so I cannot regularly check His Majesty's dragon body to rule out illnesses."
Zhao Liexian said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, just one sentence now: What is the father's dragon body like? Can it be saved!!"
The big teapot had his hands on his sleeves, a defiant face, looked at the sky, and said with great disdain: "In front of my big teapot, even if the King of the Nine Netherworld comes personally, no one can use gold and stone poison to take away the life of the person I want to save. !”
At this moment, everyone in Shuiyue Palace secretly took a breath of air.
There are old eunuchs and old guards in their palace, who have been on duty in the palace for many years, but they have never seen such an arrogant favorite!
Zhao Hanqing took a deep look at the big teapot, feeling murderous in his heart!
Such an arrogant person has always been by his father's side! When Gu ascends the throne, these treacherous villains will be eradicated! !
Zhao Hanqing's heart was full of murderous intent, but his face showed the look of a courteous corporal. He bowed deeply to the big teapot and said: "If the altar can be rejuvenated by magic, I will be rewarded heavily!"
The big teapot waved his hand disapprovingly. He took out a brocade box from his arms and said, "I have a pill here. If you take it for your majesty, you will be fine."
For a moment, the hall was silent, and everyone looked at the big teapot like a madman.
Are you really stupid, or are you pretending to be stupid
At this time, His Majesty is unconscious due to poisoning. You take out a pill and let him take it again
You haven't cleared yourself of any suspicion, yet you still want His Majesty to take another pill
You are really a longevity star holding arsenic, and you are so impatient with life!
No one dares to speak at this time, because no one dares to take the initiative!
Once His Majesty takes this elixir and dies, the person who agreed will have to bear the full responsibility. Although the big teapot will not escape death, the person who agreed will also bear the blame!
This is the crime of killing the emperor! Who dares to agree
The prince cannot bear the responsibility for this crime!
Zhao Hanqing was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, while Zhao Liexian stared at the red pill, his eyes red, like a gambler who had lost all his money!
The big teapot glanced at everyone and asked one by one: "Your Highness, is it okay?"
Even for a person like Zhao Hanqing, who was so bold and powerful, when faced with this problem, he couldn't help but froze, swallowed subconsciously, and didn't say anything for a while.
The big teapot smiled slightly and looked at Zhao Hanqing with something in his eyes: The prince is nothing more than that!
Then, the big teapot looked at Zhao Liexian again and said, "Prince Ping? Is that okay?"
Zhao Liexian clenched his hands into fists, and his fingernails dug deeply into his flesh. He stared at the red pills in the brocade box in the big teapot's hand, clenching his teeth, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.
The big teapot also smiled immediately, handed the brocade box to Concubine Ming who was aside, and said, "Concubine Ming? Is that okay?"
Concubine Ming was leaning aside at this time, her hairpins were scattered, and her snowy muscles were exposed. She was indescribably fragrant and sultry. Her expression was frightened, as if she had been scared to death. Tears were rolling in her eyes and her lips were trembling. , speechless for a moment.
The big teapot bent slightly and said in a very low voice that could be heard by everyone around him: "Concubine Ming, if Your Majesty goes to heaven, will Concubine Ming have a place to stay?"
Concubine Ming trembled all over, and her body began to tremble violently. It was obvious that the words of the big teapot had touched upon the most fearful place in Concubine Ming's heart.
She has enjoyed exclusive favor for so many years, and there are already countless concubines who hate her deeply and want to get rid of them quickly!
At the same time, she had been favored for so many years, but in order to express her feelings in front of the emperor, she had never managed her own power. This also made Zhao Bairen deeply moved by her move and trusted her even more.
Therefore, once Zhao Bairen dies, she will be the first unlucky person in the harem!
Leng Gong is her best destination!
What is more likely is that she was labeled as having brought disaster to the country and the people, and then was quietly executed! After all, everyone in the palace would definitely think that it was her charming seduction that killed Zhao Bairen, and this matter was extremely disgraceful, so executing her in a low-key manner was the most reasonable solution.
Concubine Ming not only saw this kind of thing a lot in the harem, but she also personally dealt with her love rival!
Concubine Ming stared at the red pill, and she instantly understood the key to the current situation: neither the prince nor the fourth prince dared to take the blame! No one dares to let Zhao Bairen swallow this red pill, so she must bear the blame!
Concubine Ming's whole body was shaking like chaff. She raised her head, looked at the big teapot with tearful eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Zheng Altar... His Majesty's poisoning has nothing to do with me!"
The big teapot said warmly: "Hey, no one said it has anything to do with you! It's just that you are His Majesty's most favored concubine after all. On such an important matter, I naturally have to ask Concubine Ming for your opinion."
Concubine Ming covered her face and burst into tears: "I don't know, I don't know! Don't ask me, I really don't know. This has nothing to do with me!"
As she said that, she rushed to Zhao Bairen, pulled his sleeves and cried loudly, saying: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please get up quickly, they are all bullying me! Your Majesty, nothing can happen to you. If anything happens to your Majesty, There are three long and two short, how can I live like this!"
The hall was extremely quiet. The guards, maids and eunuchs around them almost held their breath, fearing that they would gasp out loud if they exerted more effort. At this time, only Concubine Ming's wailing voice echoed in the empty palace.
All of them quietly looked back and forth between the Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince, because they knew that maybe today... a new true dragon would appear!
Right between Zhao Hanqing and Zhao Liexian!
