The two letters were authenticated in the hands of the courtiers and sent to the court again through the Yamen servants.
Kong Changhui originally wanted to throw the crazy seal at Su Qianle's face, but he cherished the calligraphy on it. In the end, he got angry and shouted at her: "You are so bold and cunning Su Qianle, what else do you have to say?" Easy to talk about."
Su Qianle had no idea why this happened. That day she went to deliver food to Xia Chu, and she clearly saw that he had just put down his pen. When she walked over to look at it, the ink was still wet.
What's more, Xia Chu personally admitted that it was a letter of peace to Su Qian'an, so she secretly deducted the letter while sealing it and only stuffed the letter home written by herself.
Su Qianle watched with her own eyes as Xia Chu called someone and sent the letter directly. How could this happen
What exactly went wrong
Su Qianle looked confused. She bowed and said, "I don't know where the girl went wrong, but that letter from King Hu to him must be true. What's more, he secretly communicated with His Highness King Mo. Before His Highness King Mo left the capital, he even went to live in his house for more than half a month until His Highness the King Mo left the capital. These adults will know it once they investigate."
Kong Changhui laughed angrily: "It's ridiculous. It's still unclear whether the letters from other countries are deliberately framed, but you concluded that they were treasonous just because the young marquis went to Prince Mo's Mansion for a while. His words are worthy of punishment!"
Su Qianle also knew that this accusation was quite weak, but originally this one was temporarily added yesterday. He thought that the previous collaboration with the enemy was ironclad evidence, and the subsequent collusion and rebellion was logical.
Who would have thought that the evidence that was supposed to be irrefutable was easily exposed by Xia Chu. The following words are naturally not convincing now.
Su Qianle glanced at Xiao Yanjun in confusion. He insisted on adding this because he had to say something for her.
Xiao Yanjun was very dissatisfied with her letter, but thinking that she still had something to say, he had no choice but to look at Feng Chen.
Feng Zhen, the imperial doctor, thought about his words and then spoke for Su Qianle and said to Kong Changhui: "In any case, Su Qianle forced the young marquis to admit that he was guilty of the crime of burning corpses. The one he took out The letter sealing Hu Guo is indeed stamped with the royal seal. She had such a guess because she had the country's justice at heart. If Mr. Kong said it could be punished, it would be a bit too much."
Kong Changhui turned to look at him and sneered: "One code is another code. Does Master Feng think her current remarks are reasonable?"
"That's not what I mean, whether it's reasonable or not, I have to listen to what she has to say." Naturally, Feng Zhen didn't want to offend His Highness King Mo, so he went to admit what Su Qianle said, that Xia Chu and Xiao Mubai conspired to rebel.
Therefore, he smiled very awkwardly, turned to Jing Qibin, the Minister of Punishment, and asked: "What do you think, Minister Jing?"
Jing Qibin cursed in his heart. This made it clear that he was not allowed to sit on the sidelines and was forced to express his position. When he saw Kong Changhui, he immediately looked over to him, looking like he was waiting for him to uphold justice, and frowned. He turned to Su Qianle and said, "If there is no proof later, don't say anything anymore."
Su Qianle bowed again: "The daughter of the people has evidence that he poisoned the emperor."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone inside and outside the hall was stunned.
Poisoning the emperor is a big deal. The health of the dragon body is the foundation of the country. If Su Qianle really has evidence and accuses Xia Chu of poisoning and murdering the emperor, then his intentions will be clear.
With his current position as a prince, if he really poisoned him, what else could he do besides treason and usurp the throne
As the emperor's life and safety were at stake, Jing Qibin couldn't hold himself back and asked Su Qianle in a deep voice, "What evidence do you have?"
Su Qianle untied her purse, took out a small porcelain bottle from it, and presented it with both hands: "Some time ago, Mr. Xiao Hou often refined elixirs in the pharmacy in his yard. It was extremely mysterious. A folk girl once When I went to deliver food to him, I secretly overheard him talking to others, saying that the poison he was making was the poison that was used to kill the emperor. Soon after, rumors began to spread in the market. It was said that the emperor was seriously ill and could not even hold the morning court. Just when he was out, he risked his life to get in and steal out."
Kong Changhui snorted coldly: "It's nonsense. This is just your one-sided statement. Can it also be called evidence?"
Su Qianle, however, glanced at the courtiers on the right and asked, "I wonder if you adults have noticed that since the young marquis entered the palace early in the morning some time ago, the emperor's health has been deteriorating."
What he said was true. The courtiers whispered to each other and counted the time. It was really the time when Xia Chu often entered the palace, and they all said yes.
Xiao Zimu looked at her and said coldly: "Su Qianle, even so, it doesn't prove that Ah Chu poisoned my father."
"Seventh brother is very affectionate to the young marquis, so don't be impatient." Xiao Yanjun specifically pointed out that he and Xia Chu had a close friendship, then raised his chin towards the courtier on the right and continued: "Isn't this too good? The envoy of the hospital is here, so he can check whether the poison Su Qianle stole is a symptom of my father's current condition."
Seeing Xiao Yanjun speak, Yuan Guangyi quickly walked out of the queue carrying the medicine box and walked into the hall.
Xiao Zimu looked at his figure and sneered: "My father is in ill health, and the envoy of the Courtyard still has some free time to come and see these three trials."
Yuan Guangyi saluted him: "I am not on duty today, so I came over to join in the fun..."
Xiao Zimu looked at the medicine box he was carrying and sarcastically said: "If you are not on duty and come to join in the fun, you are carrying a medicine box. Even the garden envoys are not tired."
Yuan Guangyi looked a little embarrassed: "I'm used to carrying it on my back, and I feel safe having the medicine box by my side."
Xia Chu felt a chill in his heart. He had no impression of Yuan Guangyi in his previous life. He only knew that Zhuo Xiande in the Taiyuan Hospital was manipulated by Xiao Yanjun and had been doing things for them.
Although after discovering that the emperor was poisoned, he sent Xiang Chengfang to keep an eye on Yuan Guangyi for a period of time.
However, Xiang Chengfang said that he had not found anything special about him, so Xia Chu gave up.
But now, since Xiao Yanjun specifically asked him to come forward to test the poison, it is conceivable that the real poison that the emperor was poisoned seems to have something to do with him.
Jing Qibin was particularly concerned about the matter concerning the emperor, and said to Yuan Guangyi: "Since the envoy from Yuan Yuan is here, let's check it out."
Yuan Guangyi bowed to the three people in the hall, then stepped forward to take the porcelain bottle from Su Qianle's hand, poured out a pill and began to examine it.
Everyone followed him as he opened the medicine box and slowly examined it, with their hearts in their throats. Only Xia Chu looked at him coldly, pretending to smell, scrape or insert a needle...
After Yuan Guangyi fiddled with the incense for most of an hour, he replied in a deep voice to the three people in the hall: "It is indeed the poison that was poisoned by the emperor's dragon body."
