"Is it really okay to vomit so much blood?" Su Ningxin asked in a low voice outside the window.
Gu Mingxi also replied in a low voice, "It's not a poison that seals the throat when it sees blood. As long as the antidote can be taken in time, it won't be a big problem. At most, it will take a while to recover from the injury."
Su Ningxin felt relieved and said, "That's good."
As a shrill voice of "The Emperor has arrived" sounded outside, the Emperor hurriedly walked into the Queen's palace and went straight to the bed. Su Ningxin and the two of them also closed their mouths and stopped talking.
The emperor looked at the queen who was on the bed with blood stains on her face and her face was as pale as paper. There was a look of guilt and distress on her face, but he quickly suppressed it.
Putting down the Queen's hand, the Emperor stood up and turned around, and started the performance he had prepared long ago. First he smashed a vase in anger, and then sent people to investigate immediately. As long as everyone had come into contact with the Queen's soup, all people were investigated one by one.
The entire process of Yan Diejiu's poisoning was under the supervision of the queen's secret guards, so the evidence could be said to have been prepared long ago and was presented to the emperor in less than half an hour.
At this time, the queen's condition was under control by the imperial doctors, but the remaining poison was not cleared away. The imperial doctors still had to discuss the prescription. The emperor ordered people to bring Yan Diejiu to the front hall for personal interrogation, leaving the back hall to the queen. Rest.
"Yan Guiren, you are so brave!" Looking at Yan Diejiu who was pinned on the ground of Fengyi Palace, the emperor said in a cold voice. At the same time, he threw the hollow tea cup in his hand in front of Yan Diejiu, and the broken porcelain The piece splashed from the ground and scratched Yan Diejiu's cheek.
Regarding Yan Diejiu's injury, the emperor acted as if he had not seen anything. It did not cause any emotional fluctuations in him at all. He just asked expressionlessly, "Everyone has gained the stolen goods, what else do you have to say?"
Yan Diejiu tried hard to break away from the palace maid who was holding her down, but failed. She could only laugh loudly and looked at the emperor mockingly, "I don't have anything to say, I just feel pathetic and the emperor is hateful."
"Presumptuous!" the eunuch beside the emperor screamed, but the emperor stopped him with a wave of his hand, "Let her speak."
This time Yan Diejiu finally broke away from the palace maid, stood up and looked at the emperor, "Chu Luojue, you are just an unpopular prince, do you want to do whatever you want once you gain power? Oh, there is no such reason, even the emperor There is no reason to do whatever you want.”
With tears in her eyes, Yan Diejiu asked hoarsely, "How many concubines are there in the palace? Thirty-six, each one has an extraordinary background, each one has high hopes from the family, each one should have a smooth and happy life Life, and what have you done? You brought us into the palace as just a decoration,"
"Don't let us be favored, don't give our family any benefits of having a daughter become a concubine, don't let us have any contact with people outside the palace, and let our family gradually forget that we have a daughter, but we are human beings, so you just Are we going to be treated as decorations for the rest of our lives?"
"Look at Yucainv, who is only thirteen years old. When she first entered the palace, she only thought about how to go out and play every day. Now she knows that she always pretends to be stupid and runs to the Queen's Palace in order to let the emperor remember her. I will Isn’t it within the Emperor’s expectation to poison the Queen?”
After Yan Diejiu said this long paragraph, he still stood in front of the emperor, looking at the emperor stubbornly. During the whole process, the emperor's face did not change at all.
Seeing that she had finished speaking, Cai Yun said calmly, "Now that you have finished speaking, let's go to the cold palace. The crime of murdering the mother of the country is unforgivable. The Taifu's Mansion has been implicated, and people have been sent to imprison all the people in the Taifu's Mansion. Post-processing.”
After hearing the emperor's words, Yan Diejiu panicked. She knew that if she did this, she might be convicted or even lose her life, but instead of letting her sit in the palace and die of old age, she would rather give it a try, but she didn't expect As the leader of the Qingliu faction in the court, his father will also be implicated.
Yan Diejiu, who had been extremely stubborn just now, finally panicked and immediately knelt on the ground to plead for mercy. She even wanted to crawl up to the emperor and pull the corner of his clothes, but was kicked away by the father-in-law beside the emperor without mercy. The emperor even more Without even looking at her, he walked straight out of the palace.
Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi heard the whole process clearly, and they even lamented in the middle that what Yan Diejiu said was quite reasonable. He kept a group of women well and well, but gave them no other hope and did not cause trouble. It's weird to get up.
Not long ago, after the emperor left the queen's palace, the queen slowly opened her eyes. It was just a show for others to see. In fact, the amount of poison in her soup was not large, and it would never be fatal. The so-called coma was also She deliberately made it look like this.
Seeing the queen leave, Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi climbed over the window and jumped in. When Liu Xue saw that they had not screamed out, they covered her mouth.
The queen propped up her body weakly and said to Liu Xue, "Don't panic, it's someone from the secret guard."
Seeing Liu Xue nodding, Su Ningxin let her go. As expected, she didn't say anything. She went straight to the drawer and took out a porcelain bottle. She poured the antidote in the porcelain bottle into a jade wine glass and brought it to the queen.
The queen shook the wine glass, looked at the two people who were listening to the noise outside, smiled, and said to them, "I am grateful to you no matter what. It is my blessing to know you in this life. I would like to trouble you this time." ”
Feeling a little strange, the two of them turned back to look at the queen. Gu Mingxi joked, "If you are really grateful, then don't do stupid things in the future, and don't let us clean up your mess for you."
The queen smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, it won't happen again." As she said that, she raised the cup in her hand and said, "Take this cup and send it to the past, and you will never look back in this world." After that, she drank it all.
Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi were still looking at what was going on, and saw that the queen's face instantly turned purple, and black blood flowed from the corners of her lips. This situation was much more serious than just after taking poison.
The two of them quickly flew from behind the screen to the queen's side. Su Ningxin caught the queen who almost fell to the ground, and Gu Mingxi immediately tapped her acupuncture points twice.
Supporting the queen, Su Ningxin picked up the fragments of the jade wine glass that fell on the ground, put them under her nose and smelled them. She looked at Gu Mingxi seriously and said, "It's mixed with poison."
The two of them looked at Liu Xue with sharp eyes. Liu Xue saw that the situation was not right and wanted to run away immediately. However, Su Ningxin used the fragment in her hand as a hidden weapon and shot it out. It hit Liu Xue's leg accurately, causing her to pounce. Fall to the ground.
When Liu Xue fell down, Yan Diejiu in the outer hall was kicked by the eunuch and screamed, so no one noticed the movement in the inner hall.
When Su Ningxin stopped Liu Xue from escaping, Gu Mingxi had already taken out the silver needle he had brought with him and injected more than a dozen needles into the queen's body in the blink of an eye.
