In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Hongli's expression turned cold: "What did you say?"
Fu Heng was instructed by him to go to the arsenal to investigate the recent entry and exit records, and now he came back to return, saying: "Ten days ago, the fourth elder brother's confidant eunuch Jin Zhong had been to the arsenal, and he stayed for half an hour under the pretext of picking arrows and crossbows, and then... The bird gun used by the fifth brother was damp, and the brother had no choice but to temporarily borrow a new bird gun from the green camp."
Hongli didn't say a word, only clenched and loosened his fists, loosened and clenched again.
"Are all the people in the arsenal dead?" After a long time, he said gloomily, "Why is such a big thing never reported!"
Fu Heng said a fair word for the people in the arsenal: "Your Majesty, the Armed Forces Academy is in charge of equipment for royal and official use. It has always been strictly managed, but this month, it was just as the military parade cotton armor that was stored was being shaken to dry. Busy preparations up and down, plus…”
Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Hongli sneered: "In addition, this matter is related to the fourth brother, no one dares to say it, no one dares to care, right?"
Fu Heng was silent, the room was suppressed and silent, like the tranquility before a storm.
"Go away!"
"Fourth brother, you can't rush in!"
"I have something urgent, and I must see Huang Ama immediately! Huang Ama! Huang Ama, my son has something urgent, please be sure to see my son! Huang Ama!"
Hongli slowly raised his head and looked out the door gloomily: "Let him in."
The guards outside the door finally let go, and Yongxuan stumbled in, knelt down as soon as he saw him, and walked all the way to his feet, crying bitterly: "Huang Ama save me, Huang Ama save me!"
"You came just in time." Hongli looked down at him and said coldly, "I have something to ask you—did you send Jinzhong to the armory?"
Yongxuan was stunned when he heard the words.
Hongli said sternly: "I'm asking you what!"
Yongxuan hesitated for a moment, he didn't want to admit it, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, he only heard footsteps outside, and he came after him, and immediately frowned when he saw him: "Presumptuous! How did I teach you in the past? , to do such a rebellious thing, and have the face to make a fuss in the Hall of Mental Cultivation!"
"Who in the end did the rebellious thing?" Seeing her ruthless face, Yongxun actually told her about his plot against the fifth elder brother. My son sent Jin Zhong to the arsenal, but that was—"
Fu Heng suddenly interjected: "The fourth elder brother sent someone to destroy the fifth elder brother's shotgun, didn't he?"
Seeing that he was the one who spoke, Yongxun immediately understood that Hongli had already sent someone to check the access to the arsenal, and most of what he had done had already been exposed.
"Emperor Ama, my son ordered someone to destroy the firearm he was used to, but it was just a moment of jealousy and hatred. I wanted him to make a fool of himself in front of you. I never thought of killing him!" Even the voice started to panic, Yongxuan suddenly turned around, pointed at his successor and said, "The new bird gun that the fifth brother borrowed from the green camp, I have never touched it! , it's her, it must be her!"
Then he said sharply: "Nonsense!"
"She still wants to kill me!" Yongxun hugged Hongli's leg and cried, "Emperor Ama, Erchen will stay in Brother's place tonight, and Zhener next to Huang'erniang brought wine and food. The Lantern Festival is poisonous! Huang E-niang hurt the fifth brother, and now she wants to hurt me again!"
Afterwards, his face was ashen, Yuan Chunwang was like a ghost, floating out from behind her, his voice was soft: "Fourth brother, the Lantern Festival is poisonous, why are you still standing here?"
Yongxun gave him a disgusted look: "Zhener's conscience found out that she told me the truth!"
"Fourth elder brother, you are really full of lies." Yuan Chunwang smiled, "Miss Zhen occasionally feels cold and is bedridden, and the Queen Mother specially hired an imperial doctor for her. Everyone in the Chengqian Palace knows how a seriously ill person would go there. Poisoned?"
Yongxuan was stunned for a while, then suddenly raised his head and shouted at Hongli: "The poisonous food is in Brother's place. My son is afraid that someone will destroy the evidence, so he specially finds someone to guard it. If Emperor Ama doesn't believe it, he will find out at a glance! If it doesn't work, please Jane Come on!"
Afterwards, he sighed and slowly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine did not expect that the child she raised with her own hands would not hesitate to bite me in order to escape the crime. It is really heartbreaking. But the concubine can swear to God, I have never hurt Fifth Brother, and I don’t know about Yongxuan’s evil deeds, if he violates his oath, he would rather be hit by five thunders than end in a happy life.”
Including Yongxuan, everyone present, no one expected that she would make such a poisonous oath, could not help but stunned.
"Second brother, don't be impatient." Finally, Fu Heng said, "It's true or false, we'll know when we check it out."
So Hongli decreed, Zhang Yuanjian rushed over overnight, and together with the eunuch in charge of the elder brother's office, they inspected the cold food on the table, and the results came out and reported to the Yangxin Hall.
"—Non-toxic." Li Yu said, "As for Miss Zhen, there is an imperial doctor who has testified that she is indeed sick in bed. She said that she has never seen Fourth Brother tonight."
"Impossible, it's impossible!" Yong Xuan said in shock, "Huang'e Niang clearly wants to poison me, she wants to poison me, I have heard it with my own ears and seen it with my own eyes!"
Only what he saw with his own eyes, only what he heard with his own ears, no one else could prove it, even the little eunuch beside him was loyal, and now there is no trace of him,
Without evidence, nothing happened, and what he heard and saw were all hallucinations, or a false accusation against his successors.
"I see, you, it's you! You arranged everything!" Yong Xuan suddenly rushed over, pinched his shoulders and shook it vigorously, "Huang E-niang, why do you do this to me, I treat you as my own mother-in-law? Ah, why? If you are not your own son, you are going to send me to death? Is it in your heart that I am just a pawn to sacrifice at any time?"
Yuan Chunwang pushed him away without much effort, but Yongxuan couldn't stand on his own, staggered a few steps, then sat down on the ground and burst into tears: "I know I'm not talented, so I worked harder, but still I can't compare to Twelve, just because I'm not biological... But Huang'er, is my filial piety for so many years fake? You just... You are so cruel, do you have to use me as a stepping stone to Twelve? Huang'er , Queen Mother!"
Weeping with tears, weeping with blood.
Until Hongli ordered him to be escorted to the ancestral mansion, the shrill voice of Huang'e Niang still echoed in everyone's ears.
Afterwards, she came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and walked upright for a long time. Suddenly, her feet softened. Fortunately, Yuan Chunwang stretched out her hand to help her, so she did not fall to the ground.
"Niangniang, the fourth elder brother is stupid and ignorant and made a big mistake. Now the truth is finally revealed, and the emperor has also put him in the sect's mansion..." Yuan Chunwang said softly, "It's all right."
Then he slowly turned his head and stared at him with a gloomy face.
"Say." She said coldly, "What have you done?"
Yuan Chunwang said respectfully, "Without the Queen's order, the servants would not dare to do anything."
"You have a lot of things to make your own opinions. After the first time, can Ben Gong still believe you?" Afterwards, he looked at him suspiciously, "Tell me, does the fourth elder brother have anything to do with you? !"
"The maiden has really wronged the servant." Yuan Chunwang looked more respectful, "The fourth elder brother ended up like this, it is all his own fault. For that position, he did not hesitate to harm the fifth elder brother... For this matter, his confidant eunuch was loyal and afraid of taking responsibility. Inform the slaves."
Speaking of this, he looked up at the other party and smiled: "The servant dare not hide it, so I will tell you immediately."
After that, he did not speak with a gloomy face.
She didn't believe Yuan Chunwang's words at first, thinking that the other party was trying to divide the relationship between her mother and son. Unexpectedly, just as her front foot stepped on the Hall of Mental Cultivation, she heard Yongxun arranging to frame her there.
What poisoned him, he saw the incident, he took a bite and poured dirty water on her!
"But after all, he is the child raised by this palace..." Afterwards, he finally took back some of his guard against Yuan Chunwang, and lowered his eyes wearily, "His actions are extremely stupid, even though the emperor will He took the Zongren Mansion into custody, but in his heart, I was afraid that he would also have doubts about this palace, hey…”
Hongli was suspicious.
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he looked at the direction he left, and tapped the table with his fingers in a hurry: "Do you think it was Yongxun's doing?"
Fu Heng: "Your Majesty, the servants don't know."
Hongli squinted at him: "I don't know, or I dare not say it?"
Fu Heng could only say: "Your Majesty, the servant believes that the fourth brother is telling the truth. He did destroy the fifth brother's old bird gun, but he never touched the newly borrowed bird gun from the Green Camp. Perhaps the fifth brother was injured, What an accident."
"There is no cause, so what is the result? Yongxuan may not have the intention to kill, but he is narrow-minded, his methods are despicable, and he has become a weapon in the hands of others." Hongli sneered, "As soon as he made a move, he destroyed my two sons. Ah, good tricks, good scheming!"
Being loyal to a big living person, how can he disappear for no reason? This is the biggest flaw, and it also means that there must be a mastermind behind it. Who is this person, is it a successor or someone else? Hongli naturally had doubts in his heart, doubts followed, and doubts about everyone...
