Moreover, this medicinal powder was also the poison that killed Prince Lao An back then!
Luo Tong immediately said to Wu Yongyuan: "You go with Lindong and be sure to send Concubine Xu Bian to the Queen Mother!"
Lindong and Wu Yongyuan immediately obeyed the order and left, went back to the west courtyard, tied up Concubine Xu, and then left the palace and went straight to the palace.
At this time, people outside the palace did not know that such a big change had occurred in Prince An's palace.
Even Wu Zhengqing was unaware of it. At this time, he was still living and drinking, trying to make up for the miserable days he spent in prison.
Not long after Wu Yongyuan and others left, Wu Zechen came back. He had an anxious look on his face when he walked in. It wasn't until he saw Luo Tong sitting peacefully at the desk that he relaxed a little.
"Tong'er, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" He still felt uneasy and sat down next to Luo Tong, checking her over carefully.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I found it early and didn't touch it." Luo Tong reassured him, then pushed the incriminating evidence that Wu Yongyuan had found on the table in front of Wu Zechen.
Wu Zechen's eyes flashed slightly and he looked through it carefully.
The more you look at him, the colder the expression on his face becomes, and anyone can see the anger in his heart at this time.
Luo Tong stretched out his hand to wrap his clenched fist: "The powder that Concubine Xu Tong hid in the secret compartment of the bed was the poison that killed my father."
"She is not worthy of the status of concubine!" A suppressed and angry voice came out from between his teeth, and Wu Zechen's eyes seemed to contain thunderstorms.
"Achen, I think this is an opportunity." Luo Tong was also angry, but she still said calmly.
"Do you have any ideas?" Sensing the meaning of Luo Tong's words, Wu Zechen asked suppressing the hatred in his heart.
"Why don't we just do something to scare the snake away and let them take action..."
Wu Zechen's eyes moved and he chatted with Luo Tong in a low voice.
…
Wu Zechen did not stay longer in the mansion. After ordering to strengthen the security, he went out again and went to Cining Palace where the Queen Mother was.
He was really worried about Luo Tong just now, and he needed to know the details, so he made a special trip back.
As for now, he needs to enter the palace and take a good look at Concubine Xu!
At the same time, he also had to discuss the following matters with the Queen Mother and Wu Fengyan...
The next day, the whole capital knew that something had happened to Prince An's Mansion!
Concubine Xu Bian actually poisoned Princess An! Not only did he want the life of the child in Princess An’s belly, he even wanted the life of Princess An herself!
As soon as this news came out, the whole capital was in an uproar!
I don’t know where the news came from, but soon the whole capital knew what happened.
Including how Concubine Xu bribed the servants in the east courtyard and asked them to poison Princess An's food.
Later, when the servant reported to Concubine Xu Side, they directly stole the stolen goods and were caught on the spot. Finally, Concubine Xu Side was directly sent to the Queen Mother by Princess An and handed over to the Queen Mother for disposal.
The whole capital is excited!
Why would a former king's concubine want to kill the current princess?
There are different opinions in the capital, and there are all kinds of speculations, but a few speculations soon became the mainstream and were affirmed by many people.
Many things that happened in the past were dug up by people on the street a few days ago, and what happened in full view of the public.
It was that day that Wu Zhengqing stopped Princess An's carriage in the street and asked Princess An to help him pay off his debts and escape the debt collection by the gambling house.
There were quite a few people on the street who saw this incident at that time. Although it had not become known to everyone, this time there was an incident where Wu Zhengqing's mother-in-law, Princess Xu, poisoned Princess An. Naturally, this matter was brought out again.
Wu Zhengqing was the concubine of Prince An's palace. He spent his whole day eating, drinking and having fun. Many people also knew about this. He owed a lot of gambling debts but couldn't pay them back. As a result, the people from the gambling shop tied him up on the spot and sent him to the Yamen. I happened to bump into Luo Tong on the road.
"I heard that Wu Zhengqing, the second son-in-law of Prince An's Mansion, is a gambler on weekdays. He also hangs out in brothels and taverns all day long. You don't need to think about it to know that he is a womanizer."
"No! He also ruined the gambling house owner's daughter! This was revealed by the gambling house's thugs on the street, and Wu Zhengqing did not refute it at that time!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, such a person is actually the second son of Prince An's palace, the concubine brother of Prince An?! It really doesn't look like him at all, it's such an embarrassment to Prince An's palace!"
"Who says it's not the case? If I were Prince An, I would be brought to life!"
"But this second young master is a concubine after all, and he is the son of Concubine Xu Concubine who came from the Xu family. Look at the Xu family, look at Concubine Xu Concubine, and then look at his biological sister Wu Qingqing. Can you figure it out?"
"Wu Qingqing? But the one who drugged himself into a man's bed and now entered the Yang family and became Young Master Yang's concubine?"
"That's the one! You really are not a family, you won't enter the same house!"
"With such a mother and grandfather, no wonder the children are so virtuous!"
"It seems that this daughter of the Xu family is really bad. Look at the children raised by the daughter of the Xu family! If I had children like this, I would really like to put them back and give birth to a new child!"
"But all the daughters raised by the Xu family are like this, so wouldn't the Xu family themselves be bad too?"
"I don't know. I haven't heard anything about the other members of the Xu family before. I only know that this daughter of the Xu family is not good."
"By the way, is it possible that Concubine Xu poisoned Princess An just for the sake of the two children? After all, the original scandal of Wu Qingqing was exposed, and Princess An was also responsible for it!"
"Yes, it was said that Princess An personally came forward to uphold justice and restore Zuo Xiyan's innocence to Mr. Zuo. Doing so would definitely arouse the anger of Princess Xu, right?"
"Yes, yes, there is also the matter of the second young master Wu Zhengqing this time. He stopped Princess An's carriage in the street last time. As a result, Princess An was fair and strict and rejected Wu Zhengqing's unreasonable request on the spot. Later I heard that Wu Zhengqing was in He sat in jail for several days, and it wasn't until Concubine Xu Chou raised enough money that he was redeemed."
"It's really possible! Maybe Princess Xu is just seeking revenge!"
"But I have heard of another possibility! I heard that Wu Zhengqing is concerned about Prince An's position!"
"What? Just him? With his virtue, he dares to care about the position of Prince An?"
"It's really hard to say. I don't have the ability, but that doesn't mean I don't have this idea! After all, he is the only prince of our Zhou Dynasty. As one of the only two sons of Prince Lao An, although he is a concubine, it is inevitable that he will not Such thoughts.”
