Of course Qi Yu knew that Princess Huaining wanted to "kill first and play later", but, after all, what he had to face was His Highness Prince Jing, so he still hesitated.
Princess Huaining didn't wait for him to agree, and immediately asked, "Master Jiang, you arrested all the people who have touched the medicinal food package, but you didn't catch Gu Feiyan alone, what is your intention?"
Gu Feiyan immediately smelled back biting and slandering, she looked at Princess Huaining and did not make a sound, but frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
Xia Xiaoman was furious, and rushed in front of Master Jiang, explaining with a serious expression, "Princess, the lonely girl is the drug girl of Prince Jing's mansion, in charge of the affairs of medicine and stones in Prince Jing's mansion, and she was ordered to come with our family to assist in the investigation tonight! The princess said that there was a mistake in the medicinal food package, and it was the orphan girl who tested it out. The orphan girl has absolutely no doubts!"
"What? She tested it out?"
Qi Yu didn't expect Gu Feiyan to have these two tricks. Princess Huaining was also very surprised, but she was in a hurry to frame her and didn't take it seriously.
"So what if she tested it out? Who knows if she is a thief calling for a thief? From grabbing the medicine to receiving the medicine, she is the only one who has the opportunity to touch the medicine package alone?"
"this… "
Xia Xiaoman was at a loss for words for a while, although he was 100% sure, Gu Feiyan would not be suspected. But he couldn't find a reason to refute Princess Huaining for a while. He could neither tell the story of the old fox, nor could he tell the story of Gu Feiyan saving the life of Prince Jing's Highness a few days ago.
what to do
Gu Feiyan was unexpectedly calm. She raised her eyes and glanced at Princess Huaining, full of scrutiny. Princess Huaining hurriedly avoided Gu Feiyan's sight as if she had been seen through.
She never believed that Gu Feiyan could see the truth, let alone give Gu Feiyan a chance to know the truth. She suddenly slapped the table hard and said angrily, "Jiang Li'an, you won't arrest her or interrogate her. You asked her to assist in handling the case in the middle of the night. How did you become the Minister of Dali Temple? This princess will go find her now. Royal Father, tell Royal Father that you and the suspect have slandered the Qi family's Zhongliang!"
Mr. Jiang was stunned for a moment, and then shouted, "You are wronged! You are wronged!"
According to the rules of the imperial pharmacy, two or three people must supervise each other from dispensing medicine to testing medicine. Looking into it, it turns out that Gu Feiyan is indeed the only person who has come into contact with the herbal meal package alone; moreover, Mrs. Jiang already had some doubts about Gu Feiyan. The father-in-law questioned it.
In the face of Princess Huaining's questioning, can Mr. Jiang not be weak
He stuttered in fright, "Princess, Xiaguan also agrees that the lonely girl is the most suspected! Xiaguan wanted to send someone to Prince Jing's mansion to arrest her tonight, but never thought that Eunuch Man would bring her here. Xiaguan just... Just now, she was about to be taken into custody, but this... if it didn't bump into you and General Qi, it would be delayed."
Mr. Jiang is afraid of returning home, after all, he still remembers that Gu Feiyan is now a member of Prince Jing's residence. He looked at Xia Xiaoman and explained, "Eunuch Man, the princess's doubts are exactly the doubts of the subordinate officials. Besides, the medicine is not easy to distinguish. How can the lonely drug girl test out the medicinal ingredients? I am very puzzled. Please report this matter to His Highness King Jing as soon as possible."
Xia Xiaoman's expression was one of despair. If he hadn't seen Gu Feiyan's ability with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Gu Feiyan could detect medicinal ingredients that the great pharmacist of the Imperial Pharmacy could not detect. Regardless of whether Princess Huaining gave perjury or not, this slander is a certainty!
Xia Xiaoman regretted so much, she really shouldn't have come this time!
Seeing that Xia Xiaoman didn't answer for a long time, Princess Huaining urged, "Jiang Li'an, you also have doubts, so what are you still doing? You still need this princess to teach you to handle the case?"
Mr. Jiang made a quick decision, "Come here, detain the suspect Gu Feiyan. According to the rules, he will be held alone. No one is allowed to come near without my lord's order!"
Almost at the same time, Gu Feiyan raised her head. She basically figured out the crux of the case. She did not infer wrongly just now, Qi Fufang was indeed involved in the case, and what Princess Huaining did was perjury. Moreover, judging by Princess Huaining's impatient look, she is very likely to be involved as well.
These two idiots moved His Highness Prince Jing's medicated food bag just to frame her, so as not to endanger His Highness Prince Jing's life, and they didn't dare to do so. Know the true medicinal effect of Phytolacca Phytophthora.
The real target of the old fox is the Qi family, the good show... is yet to come!
Yawei quickly entered the door, Gu Feiyan didn't say a word, and had no intention of defending. She guessed that Princess Huaining wanted to be tortured into a trick, so she beheaded first and then played.
She wants to gamble. No matter how courageous Princess Huaining is, she would not dare to kill people from Prince Jing's residence. For just a few hours, she believed that she could afford to gamble. After surviving this night, when His Royal Highness Prince Jing comes back tomorrow morning, the real fun will begin!
Yawei approached, but at this time, Xia Xiaoman suddenly stood in front of Gu Feiyan, opened his arms to protect her, and said angrily, "Jiang Li'an, His Royal Highness King Jing absolutely trusts Gu Yaonu! If you dare to lock up people in Prince Jing's mansion, just try Try it!"
Xia Xiaoman was shorter than Gu Feiyan by half of his head, and his body was very thin, but at this moment, his back was no longer young and mature, but stubborn and stubborn.
Gu Feiyan knew that this little bastard was protecting Prince Jing's face, not her, but she still felt warm in her heart. She whispered, "Don't worry, I'll be fine. You hurry back and report to His Highness, just say...just say I'll wait for him to come back."
"Jing province, how can you wait for His Royal Highness?"
Xia Xiaoman muttered angrily. Instead of walking away, he continued to intimidate Master Jiang, "Jiang Li'an, let's say this for the last time that His Highness Prince Jing absolutely trusts Gu Yaonu. If you don't believe me, even our family will be imprisoned together! Wait for Your Highness to return to the city, ha ha, At your own peril!"
"this… "
Before Lord Jiang could say anything, Princess Huaining slapped the table again, "Slave, how dare you threaten the imperial court officer! You are just a watchdog of Prince Jing's mansion, and you really take yourself seriously! Come on, Xia Xiaoman and below commit crimes, cover up the suspects, and let this princess detain her together!"
"Princess calm down, calm down, princess, Eunuch Man also..."
Master Jiang doesn't want Guan Xia Xiaoman at all. But Princess Huaining gave him a fierce look, and he could only wave his hand to signal Yawei to follow suit.
Xia Xiaoman still protected Gu Feiyan behind her back, not letting the Yamen guards take charge, and hummed softly, "Front, lead the way!"
Gu Feiyan vaguely felt that Xia Xiaoman was imprisoned with her on purpose, she couldn't figure out why, so she had to keep her face down.
Not long after they left the gate, they bumped into Qi Fufang walking towards him. Qi Fufang looked at them, then at the people in the room, and soon realized that Princess Huaining's plan had succeeded.
She was overjoyed, and deliberately stopped beside Gu Feiyan, whispering, "You are not qualified to fight with our Qi family! Hehe, if you have the ability, let your adulterer come to save you! Oh, how could I forget?" Now, that adulterer of yours has to bow his head to greet Princess Huaining when he sees Princess Huaining, hehe..."
