Wu Yongyuan had actually been observing Concubine Xu's expression, walking around the room while observing her reaction calmly.
Based on her reaction and combined with his own experience, he quickly found a lot of incriminating evidence, and there was a trend of more and more crimes.
Soon, the hall was almost searched, but Wu Yongyuan's eyes drifted to the inner room.
Inner rooms are the easiest place for ordinary people to hide things, especially women's inner rooms. The rules generally prohibit random searches. After all, most of them are women's personal belongings.
But in the current situation, the search has been done anyway, and there is still an inner room left. Especially Wu Yongyuan feels that there must be something more important in this inner room.
The things found just now should be enough to offset Luo Tong's forcible search of the west courtyard, but it is not enough.
Wu Yongyuan just paused, then immediately decided to search the inner room and walked directly towards the inner room.
Upon seeing this, Princess Xu's face suddenly showed a look of horror, and she screamed without even thinking!
"Untouchable! How dare you step into my inner chamber! Get out! Otherwise I will let the emperor kill you! Kill your whole family! No one will survive!"
Wu Yongyuan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he looked back at Concubine Xu's extremely violent reaction. What else did he not understand?
It seems that there is indeed something extremely important in this inner room!
Although Concubine Xu continued to curse and threaten, Wu Yongyuan's expression did not change at all, and he stepped directly into the inner room and started searching.
The first thing he noticed was the luxurious bed. Generally speaking, this bed is a good place to hide things...
Here Wu Yongyuan was searching the inner room, and over there in Shaoguang Pavilion, Lindong had brought Mrs. Liu to Luo Tong.
However, Mrs. Liu saw that she was not feeling well anymore, so Luo Tong immediately gave her acupuncture, forcing the poison out of her body and saving her life.
After listening to Lindong's report on the conversation between Mrs. Liu and Concubine Xu Side, Luo Tong had no intention of sympathizing with Mrs. Liu. He immediately inserted a few needles and forcibly woke up Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu sat up with an "ouch" and then fell back to the ground in a daze, but she finally woke up.
Luo Tong sat on a chair nearby and looked down at Mrs. Liu: "You can explain yourself, otherwise I don't mind returning you to Princess Xu, but your whole family will have to go with you to see the King of Hell. .”
Mrs. Liu, who was still in a daze, suddenly came to her senses. When she saw Luo Tong in front of her, she knew that she should be in Shaoguang Pavilion in the east courtyard now, and she couldn't help showing a confused expression.
"I'm not dead? Am I still alive?"
"Watch what you call me! Do you dare to call yourself "I" in front of the princess?" Lindong on the side shouted coldly.
"It was the princess who saved you from being poisoned, otherwise you would have been poisoned to death by Princess Xu Bian!"
"The princess saved the old slave?" Mrs. Liu's face was full of shock, and she was obviously in disbelief. After all, she had poisoned the princess's food not long ago.
"Tell me everything you know, and I'll make sure your family is fine. But if you're not honest, then I'll have to return you all to Concubine Xu Tong." Luo Tong said calmly.
Lindong added from the side: "The princess has just sent people to rescue your family from the hands of Dowager Xu Side. There is no serious problem for the time being. But if you want to be a loyal servant of Dowager Xu Side, then the princess will also It will be fulfilled for you.”
As soon as she mentioned her family, Mrs. Liu suddenly came back to her senses and quickly knelt down on the ground, her eyes red and her face filled with fear.
"Old slave said! I will tell you everything! I will tell the princess everything I know and will never hide it! Please don't hand over the old slave's family members to Princess Xu Zong!"
What else doesn't she understand now? Concubine Xu Zong is really poisonous! He even did things like killing people and silencing them!
And not only did she want to poison herself to death, she even wanted to kill her entire family without sparing her unsuspecting family members!
Mrs. Liu only felt extremely timid, and there was no need to say any more words of regret. She was so full of regret now!
Then, she told her everything about how Concubine Xu asked her to poison Luo Tong, and handed over the paper packet of powder that she had always held tightly in her hand.
Luo Tong listened calmly and was not surprised, because the situation was basically similar to what she had guessed before.
It’s just the paper packet of medicine powder…
Luo Tong judged from the little powder remaining in it that it was indeed the bowl of noodles he almost ate just now with very similar ingredients!
At the same time, it is also very close to the poison that Prince Lao An was poisoned back then!
Luo Tong's expression immediately turned cold. It was one thing to infer before, but it was another thing to see the facts before his eyes!
Listening to Mrs. Liu talking about some of the things that Princess Xu had once asked her to do, Luo Tong could not hide his anger.
Just the fact that Concubine Xu Concubine poisoned herself was enough to capture Concubine Xu Concubine, but Luo Tong obviously would not let her go so easily.
He turned to look at Lindong aside: "What is the current situation in the West Courtyard? Where is the prince now?"
"After the west courtyard was sealed off, many people tried to escape to send messages, but they were all intercepted by the guards. They are all tied up in one place and the interrogation has begun."
Lindong replied one by one: "The prince is in the palace and has sent someone to deliver the message. He will surely be back soon."
Lindong knew very well that with how much his prince cared about his princess, if he found out about this, he would probably drop everything he was doing and rush back immediately.
Luo Tong only pondered for a moment before making up his mind. This matter must be dealt with as soon as possible, without leaving time for those people to deal with it!
She immediately ordered in a cold voice: "Tie up Concubine Xu and gag her. Go there yourself and deliver her to the Queen Mother!"
"There is not much else to say. I will only tell the Queen Mother about the fact that she poisoned me today, as well as Mrs. Liu's testimony and evidence, and leave it to the Queen Mother to make a decision!"
It is most appropriate to leave this matter to the Queen Mother. At this time, no matter where I send it, I am afraid that the news will leak out.
In fact, the emperor made the decision to marry Concubine Xu Bei, but Luo Tong was asked to hand over Concubine Xu Bei to the emperor? That is absolutely impossible!
She had no doubt that the emperor would most likely pull out a scapegoat as he did before, and then protect Concubine Xu Bian!
This scapegoat is probably Mrs. Liu!
After all, for the emperor, keeping Concubine Xu had other uses, so that they would not be blackened in Prince An's palace.
As soon as Luo Tong finished his instructions, Wu Yongyuan entered the room and handed Luo Tong all the evidence he collected, including a small bag of remaining medicinal powder.
Luo Tong's eyes turned cold, and he immediately guessed what the medicinal powder was. After careful identification, it turned out to be what Concubine Xu Bie planned to use against her today!
