After dinner, the talented man went to see Dr. Sun again, but he still didn't wake up.
He was old and had been severely punished, so he was lucky not to die.
It’s really not certain when I’ll wake up.
Lin Bai had no choice. It seemed that he could only enter the palace tomorrow, and he would definitely not be able to sit still and wait for death.
A night of silence.
The talented man got up early in the morning and rarely did morning exercises.
The same goes for Gu Ling'er. After all, the mother-in-law was still detained in the palace. After the two had breakfast, they went straight to the palace.
The palace was quite lively.
In the main hall, Gu Qianmo became more and more haggard, and Gu Qiankuang also had a pair of panda eyes.
He was completely dragged to death, but it was a pity that in this case, nothing could be done.
After all, the impression I left was so bad that even if I knew it was acting, I had to act.
Seeing the two coming, Gu Qianmo and Gu Qiankuang couldn't help but look over, and both of them smiled symbolically.
Compared with yesterday, there didn't seem to be much difference. There was no abnormality on Gu Qianmo's face. It was as if no one had negotiated with the talented man yesterday.
good! It's a character.
The talented man secretly gave the other party a thumbs up.
Maybe it was still early, Prince Gong and Wang Chengtai had not arrived yet, so the talented man was not in a hurry to talk about the investigation. He accompanied Gu Ling'er to offer incense to his father-in-law. After a while, the group of people Almost everyone is here.
Gu Ling'er glanced at her husband and was about to speak.
After all, she is the princess.
But at this moment, several imperial guards came in a hurry, "Prince Qi, Prime Minister, we have made a new discovery."
oh?
Prince Gong asked quickly: "What's going on?"
The leading Ouchi guard said: "Back to the prince, yesterday the prince ordered the Ouchi guards to search the palace in detail again. The humble ministers and others searched carefully and refused to let go of any trace. Finally, they made a new discovery..."
He said and took out a packet of medicinal powder.
The expressions of Prince Gong and Wang Chengtai couldn't help but change. The latter looked at the imperial physician aside.
Doctor Liu understood the idea and hurriedly stepped forward to identify the medicinal powder. After a moment, he said: "Back to the prince and prime minister, the medicinal powder is indeed Xiaohun Powder, which is consistent with the poison detected in His Majesty's tea cup."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions couldn't help but change.
Prince Gong quickly asked: "Where did you find the medicinal powder?"
Prince Gong asked: "Who is Xiao Guizi?"
Eunuch Li, the chief eunuch, said: "Back to your lord, Xiao Guizi was originally an ordinary eunuch in the palace, responsible for lighting fires in the imperial kitchen. After His Majesty became seriously ill, Dr. Sun often came to the palace to treat His Majesty and prepare medicine."
"Divine Doctor Sun is serious about his work and does everything himself. He only needs a young eunuch to help him, and he is none other than Xiao Guizi."
"Because His Majesty has great trust in Divine Doctor Sun, and as time goes by, the little noble son is able to go in and out of the imperial study to deliver soups and medicines to His Majesty."
Prince Gong asked: "Then where is he now?"
The leader of the guards said: "Back to your lord, after the incident, Xiao Guizi, as one of the suspects who may have come into contact with your majesty, has been captured by the commander and sent to the prison."
"So good!"
Prince Gong said, "Where is Lord Wu?"
A guard replied: "Commander Wu has been interrogating suspects yesterday and went to the sky prison early this morning."
Prince Gong nodded, "Inform Mr. Wu immediately and bring the young noble son here. I will interrogate him personally."
"yes!"
The guards quickly retreated.
Gu Ling'er was about to mention the investigation, but when she saw this scene, she couldn't help but look at her husband.
Lin Bai's eyes became a little subtle at this time. Suddenly a young nobleman appeared, and the same poison was found. The biggest suspect instantly became the other party, and the suspicion of the mother and concubine plummeted.
Thinking of Zhou Yinglong's words yesterday, could this be Gu Qianmo's sincerity?
Subconsciously, he glanced at Gu Qianmo.
Coincidentally, Gu Qianmo also looked at him, his eyes were extremely deep, but soon, the other person looked away.
It is indeed this guy!
After just a moment of looking at each other, Lin Bai understood, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Then he looked at Prince Gong and Wang Chengtai and said, "Prince Gong, Mr. Wang, now that there is a new suspect, can the suspicion of my queen mother and concubine be cleared?"
Prince Gong looked at Lin Bai and seemed a little unhappy with Lin Bai's eagerness.
Wang Chengtai said: "Prince-in-law, the case has only made new progress temporarily. The specific details will not be determined until after investigation."
"It's been a few days. I believe the prince-in-law and his mother-in-law don't mind waiting a few more days, right?"
"As for the case, even if the Ouchi guards don't find the real culprit, I will get to the bottom of it. The late emperor is also my father-in-law. This matter concerns my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Unless the truth is found, I will never Won’t give up.”
Hearing what the talented man said, Prince Gong's originally displeased face seemed to soften a little, and he said, "The Prince Consort is interested."
With that said, the group left.
New clues came out, so naturally they were busy investigating the case.
At this juncture, it was hard to say that Lin Bai was involved. The other party had new clues, so they naturally asked them to investigate first. Fortunately, the suspicion of the mother-in-law was greatly reduced.
On the other hand, Divine Doctor Sun has not woken up. Lin Bai thought for a while, looked at the former Doctor Liu and said: "Mr. Liu, Divine Doctor Sun is currently in the Princess Mansion and has been in a coma. I wonder if I can trouble Doctor Liu to take a look at it?"
Doctor Liu did not dare to neglect, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, you are very polite. I will go and have a look after I finish handling the matters here."
Lin Bai said: "Thank you!"
The two of them stayed in the palace for a while, which was nothing more than a wake-up call. Originally, the talented man wanted to investigate the case, but now that he had nothing to do, there was no harm in staying with his wife. After all, he was his father-in-law.
Moreover, the lady has been worried about her mother and concubine, and has been busy with this matter. Now that the suspicion is gone, she is relieved, and it is time for her to accompany her.
Outside the main hall, the inner guards were moving around more and more frequently. They would be busy again if they made new discoveries.
Lin Bai didn't ask too much, and it wasn't until noon that the two of them left the palace.
After returning to the princess mansion, I received the news.
"What? Xiao Guizi is dead?"
There was a look of astonishment on Gu Ling'er's face, and then her face darkened.
Lin Bai didn't have much reaction.
Shen Polu said: "It is said that he suddenly died suddenly early this morning and died in the sky prison. Prince Gong was furious and all the guards in the sky prison were taken down."
"Now the imperial guards are searching for people related to Xiao Guizi. Many people have been arrested inside and outside the palace."
Gu Ling'er's face was gloomy and ugly, and she said coldly: "I just had a clue, but I cut it off immediately. Such quick hands and feet, such ruthless means. Father's death is indeed not simple."
"Also, if the little noble son dies like this, then wouldn't the mother-in-law..."
…
