Chapter 447:
Li Yunluo was remorseful at the moment, and she blamed herself very much, if she hadn't allowed these palace maids to be too willful and not strictly disciplined, she wouldn't be where she is today.
"Sister Yunluo, the slave maid also listened to your arrangement, so she will do this, the slave maid is just a palace maid, she will only obey the master's words, and she will not dare to do and talk nonsense." Fangcao said hurriedly, raising a pair of eyes full of tears, as if she was really innocent.
"You talk nonsense, I never let you do such harmful things." Li Yunluo was anxious to scream at the herb, and the herb suddenly pointed the finger at her, clearly biting people.
"It's just a personal palace maid, and she dares to criticize people like this in front of the emperor. It seems that the queen's usual ** strength is not enough! Prime Minister Meng said in a strange manner, his eyes slitting with sarcasm.
When Wei Xueying heard this, she glared at Prime Minister Meng with sharp eyes, and then turned her head to look at Li Yunluo and scolded sternly: "Shut up, I didn't ask you, what did you mix!" ”
Li Yunluo buried her head aggrievedly and became cowardly.
Chu Ling's face was gloomy, and his eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of Ling Ran: "Fangcao, tell me what you know, if there is half a cover and lie, I will definitely divide your five horses." ”
When Fangcao heard the news, her body trembled slightly, but the originally flustered words eased down: "Your Majesty, the slave maid didn't say a lie, the little doll was made by Sister Yunluo's sister and sister Slave Maiden, and said that it was the queen's order." The slave maid is just a palace maid, so naturally she doesn't dare to slack off. ”
When Li Yunluo heard this, she raised her head violently, her sharp eyes glared at Fangcao, she gritted her teeth, and she couldn't wait to rush forward and slap Fangcao a few times.
Wei Xueying noticed Li Yunluo's irritability, she looked at Li Yunluo with calm eyes, and grabbed Li Yunluo's hand with her hand, signaling Li Yunluo to be calm and calm with her eyes.
Seeing this, Li Yunluo's eyes flashed with a touch of contemplation, and she endured it helplessly.
"Let you make a little doll, what do you use it for?" Chu Ling's eyes flashed sharply, like an alert wolf staring at Fangcao, and his gaze never took his eyes off Fangcao's face.
"It is said that it is used to curse the concubine Niangniang, and let the slave and maid hide this thing so that no one can find out. If the slave and maid are trapped, the slave's family and the slave's life will be lost. The slave and maid dare to guarantee with their lives, this villain doll is indeed made by the queen's mother, and if there is half a lie, the slave and maid will not die well. Fangcao swore and swore that tears of fear flowed from her eyes.
For a moment, the hall fell silent, and no one spoke.
A smug smile crossed Prime Minister Meng's face, but it disappeared in an instant, and he calmly looked at the events in front of him, waiting for the next development.
Wei Xueying's face was also unusually calm, she didn't even have a word to refute, as if what this herb said was true, she had nothing to refute.
Chu Ling looked indifferent, his overly cold facial contours were like an iceberg, he couldn't blow it, and his unwavering eyes didn't know what he was thinking at the moment!
At that moment, one of the guards walked in.
Seeing that the atmosphere was wrong, the guard's body shook slightly, and then he said calmly: "Your Majesty, I found a bottle of medicine in the queen's bedroom just now, and after checking, this is indeed a bottle of strong poison, and this is the same as the poison in the concubine." ”
When everyone heard this, different faces flashed.
Wei Xueying was even more surprised, these people actually went to search her dormitory again.
I found the doll just now, and now I found poison, and the person who wants to harm her is really scheming.
The key is that this poison is indeed hers, or she took it from Hua Zili to defend herself, but now it is the concubine who has been poisoned, and she can't tell if she has anything to say about this poisoning.
Chu Ling's face was shocked, a stunned look flashed on his face, but he asked very calmly: "Bring the medicine." ”
The guard nodded and presented the medicine to Chu Ling.
Chu Ling took the poison, and the guards retreated.
Chu Ling opened the lid of the medicine, took the medicine bottle to his mouth and sniffed it, his complexion changed, then he looked at Wei Xueying, and asked in a solemn voice: "Empress, is this yours?" ”
Wei Xueying raised her eyebrows, and said in a slightly thicker voice: "This is the concubine's, but this poison is used by the concubine for self-defense, and the concubine will not use it to harm people." If the concubine really wanted to harm people, she would not put this poison in the concubine's bedroom, and the concubine would not be so stupid. ”
"Queen Mother, your palace maid has admitted it, and you still say that you won't hurt people, this is simply a dead duck with a hard mouth." Prime Minister Meng couldn't sit still, and a cool and sarcastic voice came out angrily.
"Prime Minister Meng, you'd better pay attention to what you say, this palace is the queen, and you can't be allowed to talk like this. Moreover, this palace has not done this, that is, it is not, just to find a bottle of poison and this palace maid's words, it is too hasty to say that this palace poisoned and this palace did this witch Gu thing to harm people. Wei Xueying made a loud voice, and her bright black eyes were very clear.
"Queen Mother, now that the human and physical evidence are there, and the palace maid Xiaoxiang pointed out that the soup was sent by you, and this poison was found in your palace again, does the queen mother continue to talk nonsense with her eyes open, are we all confused?" Prime Minister Meng stood up and retorted loudly, his momentum was too arrogant.
"Presumptuous." Chu Ling roared, and his sharp and frosty gaze pierced straight through Prime Minister Meng, because Prime Minister Meng's actions just now were more and more raised.
When Prime Minister Meng heard this, he immediately bent over, and his voice was condensed and low: "Your Majesty, just now Weichen was bold." After a pause, he said: "However, Wechen thought that the little girl was killed and fell unconscious, and Wechen was really heartbroken. Please give the emperor justice to the little daughter of the minister! ”
After speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed heavily to Chu Ling, and his old tears slid down, interpreting his father's love for his daughter to the extreme.
Chu Ling's eyebrows frowned, he looked at Wei Xueying, his dark eyes were sad for a moment, and a worried look was revealed.
Wei Xueying met this gaze, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes were as light as water, and she looked back at Chu Ling with a clear and watery gaze, pursed her lips and said nothing, very calm.
His eyes were full of worry, was he worried about her?
Or, he believed these people and didn't believe her.
She didn't know, and she was also confused at the moment, because all this came too fast, leaving her at a loss and framed without any warning.
Chu Ling frowned slightly, with a slight hint of vigilance in his eyes: "Lord Meng, this is a matter of the harem, I will find out." The concubine is your daughter, I understand that you are distressed, but the concubine is also my woman, I will give her justice, you had better know who you are now, and pay attention to your words and demeanor. ”
When Prime Minister Meng heard this, his face was slightly clear, and soon, he returned to his usual demeanor and raised his head coldly and said, "Weichen knows." ”
He knew that Chu Ling was angry because he said these words, and what he added to the vinegar just now made Chu Ling unhappy, and Chu Ling had already stated that he would investigate this matter, so he didn't continue to say more.
