Doctor Li stepped forward and explained, "To tell you that the poison is indeed in this dish, but Wei Chen discovered that the poison should be from the back, and only one side is poisonous. If I don't feel any discomfort, it should be you." I have better luck."
Xuanyuan Hao, who had been exhausted by the torture, said: So, I, the True Dragon Emperor, am out of luck, right?
At this time, Chai Liang, who was ordered to go to the imperial dining room, came back and brought back three people. "To report to the emperor, I made a careful inquiry in the Shangshi Bureau and found out that these three people had come into contact with the 'three fresh deer tails'," he said. One is the royal chef who cooks the dishes, one is the palace maid who serves the dishes, and the other is Sun Chengming, the eunuch in charge of the Shangshi Bureau. But none of these three people want to admit that they poisoned the dishes, and they asked the emperor to punish them."
The three of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, you will investigate clearly, your servants don't know anything..."
After taking an antidote pill and drinking an antidote decoction, the emperor finally gained strength. He looked at the three people running on the ground and said weakly: "Pull them all out and beat me hard until they As long as you are willing to recruit."
Ning Yue hurriedly stopped: "Your Majesty, wait a minute, if we really want to beat everyone to death, then we won't be able to find the person who is really behind the plot to harm the Emperor."
Only now did Xuanyuan Hao regain his senses. The queen was right. Killing a bunch of people was nothing. The key thing was to find out who wanted to harm him.
"Then, what does the Queen mean?"
"Just now, Dr. Li said that the poison was put into the dishes after they were cooked. Therefore, the imperial cook who cooked the dishes should be innocent. The palace maid who served the dishes was in the sight of others during the whole process, so it was impossible for her to have poisoned it. Poison, but this manager Sun..."
Xuanyuan Hao looked at Manager Sun with eyes like sharp arrows. The manager of Shangshan Supervisor was responsible for the most management. How could he touch his food for no reason? Thinking about it this way, Sun Mingcheng is really the most suspicious!
"Chai Liang, take Eunuch Sun down and interrogate him carefully to find out who is plotting against me!"
Sun Mingcheng was dumbfounded. The pot fell from the sky!
Obviously he didn't do anything, but now that the Queen has analyzed him like this, he has become a heinous crime. Can he survive being tried by Mr. Chai?
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me. Your Majesty, even if you gave me a hundred courages, I would not dare to murder the Emperor. Someone must have disliked me and deliberately framed me. I swear to God that I did not poison the Emperor!"
Xuanyuan Hao frowned displeased, and Chai Liang immediately took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Sun Mingcheng's mouth, then waved his hand and took him away.
"Manager Chai, I'm afraid the person who purchased it will also need to check. The eunuchs and maids in the palace usually cannot leave the palace. Sun Mingcheng must have colluded with the person who purchased it if he wanted to get the poison."
Chai Liang immediately thought that things like poison must be brought into the palace from outside the palace, and the person who brought the private goods was most likely the person responsible for the purchase. Regardless of whether he was the one, he would check it first. .
After Chai Liang left, Ning Yue waved her hand and said, "Okay, you guys can go down too and don't kneel here again to upset the emperor."
The chef and the palace maid, who had saved their lives, quickly bowed and retreated. Only the two parties involved in the crisis knew best. If it hadn't been for the queen's words, the two of them would have been spilled with blood today!
Xuanyuan Hao originally wanted someone to check the royal chef and the maid who served the dishes, but they were already driven away by the queen, so he had to swallow his words. At worst, he would send someone to secretly watch these two people for a while. If the two If people really have problems, don't be afraid that they won't reveal their flaws.
Ruhua and others took all the food off the table. After everyone left, Ning Yue looked at Xuanyuan Hao with a distressed look on her face, "Is the emperor still uncomfortable? I was scared to death just now. My heart is still beating so fast!"
Xuanyuan Hao has always known that Jiang Ningyue has a deep love for him. It is normal for her to worry about his health. "I feel much better after drinking the medicine. Queen, don't worry. I am blessed and everything will be fine."
"Did the Emperor ever suspect for a moment that she was a concubine?"
"Why does the Queen ask that?"
"When something happened to you, I shouldn't be the first one to be suspected?"
When Xuanyuan Hao heard what she said, he really thought about it, but then he threw the ridiculous thought out of his mind, "In this world, anyone can harm me, but the Queen is the only one who can't." !”
Ning Yue said movedly: "I thank you for your trust! For your trust, I am willing to die for the emperor immediately!"
Xuanyuan Hao did not doubt the authenticity of the Queen's words at all. Before he ascended the throne, he had been assassinated more than once. Almost every time, the Queen would stand in front of him. Once, he was stabbed in the thigh by an assassin and had to recuperate. It took more than three months to recover.
If such a devoted and generous woman were not the daughter of the Jiang family, he would have wanted her to be his queen for the rest of his life.
"What are you talking about? I don't want the queen to die for me. I want to sit on this great river and mountain with the queen!"
Ning Yue was about to vomit after hearing this, and secretly lamented that Dr. Li's medical skills were really good. After being poisoned by such a tormenting person, Xuanyuan Hao could be so energetic after just taking an antidote. It seemed that there was a chance to Have a good communication with Dr. Li.
Just as she was thinking this, Xuanyuan Hao might have been tired of talking to her and just said he was tired. After Ning Yue helped him lie down, she left the bedroom.
Seeing her coming out, Ruhua and Yuqi immediately came to greet her. Ruhua whispered in Ningyue's ear, "Your Majesty, Concubine De and Concubine Shu know about the emperor's poisoning and want to come over to take care of him. I saw that you and the emperor were talking. I didn’t go in to disturb you, I’m waiting outside right now.”
"How can you let all the sisters wait outside? Invite people in quickly!"
Her voice was slightly louder, and Concubine Shu and others outside the palace door heard it clearly, and their unhappiness immediately disappeared.
When Ruhua ushered the people in, Ning Yue immediately apologized, "I have to trouble all my sisters to wait here. The emperor is too weak after being poisoned. He just fell asleep now. When the emperor wakes up, , the sisters can go in and see the emperor."
Concubine De said nervously: "Empress, what happened today? How could the emperor, who is so good, be poisoned?"
"Manager Chai is still investigating this matter. The person who poisoned it is so cunning that even the food-testing eunuch didn't find out that the food had been tampered with.
Sisters, please be more careful in the future. Today, the emperor was poisoned here in this palace. Fortunately, the emperor Hong Fu and Qi Tiantian were found out in time and nothing happened. But next time if we go to the sisters' place... sisters, please be careful. Be alert. "
Yes, if something happens to the emperor in their palace, if something happens to the emperor, then the lives of their whole family will not be enough to compensate!
