Didn't this eighteen-year-old little queen cry in anger after just a few words from her?
Jiang Xinyue glanced at her expressionlessly, with boredom in her eyes: "On the day Liangfei was poisoned, did anyone see Rufei or the maid Huiyuan beside her?"
"Queen, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect that I poisoned the good concubine?"
Jiang Xinyue said nothing, and looked at Concubine Ru with her dark eyes scrutinizingly.
"It's really ridiculous. I'm the princess of Goguryeo. I came to get married for the sake of peace between the two countries. How could I..."
"Snapped!"
Magpie stepped forward and slapped her face away. She reacted and immediately wanted to slap her back, but the extremely powerful Magpie grabbed her wrist and threw her to the side. She almost staggered. Fell to the ground.
"Concubine, if you call me Queen, you should be respectful to me, not you, and you should call yourself concubine, not me. You are disrespectful to Queen, and your servants will beat you. Do you have any objection?"
"you!"
"besides……"
The magpie said with a strong attitude: "My slave, no matter you are a princess of Goguryeo or Chagoryeo, if you enter our Dayan harem, you will be our emperor's concubine. The empress is the master of the harem. Anyone who challenges the authority of the empress will be punished by palace regulations." Teach her how to be a good person, and I hope that Concubine Ru will learn the rules of the harem as soon as possible, otherwise she will be served with a stick next time."
People tend to bully the weak and fear the strong. This magpie is indeed very famous among the slaves in the harem, and Concubine Ru has also heard about it.
She endured her anger: "Having said that, the Queen has no basis to doubt me. This is a personal insult to me. I cannot accept it. I want the emperor to make the decision for me." .”
"Why is it so groundless?"
Jiang Xinyue sneered: "You said you came to see the good concubine, but you just stood here and didn't move from the moment you entered Shun'an Palace. You also deliberately said that I was interrogating prisoners because you wanted the palace people to be served by Shun'an Palace. They all resent me and have opinions against me, so they do not cooperate with my questions. Your actions like this have to make me suspect that it was you who poisoned Concubine Liang. Now you want to hide the truth, so why are you here? Trouble here."
"I suspect you, so I'm looking for evidence. If you haven't done anything, will you be afraid of my investigation?"
I haven’t done it before, why do I feel guilty?
Ru Fei was so rebuffed that she couldn't say anything to refute, and then she realized that Jiang Xinyue's mouth was so unforgiving.
The palace people below were whispering. If the concubine's little thoughts were exposed, they felt angry that they were being used as a weapon.
Everyone looked at Rufei with daggers in their eyes.
"Slave, that day... I seem to have seen the maid next to Rufei."
Someone raised his hand weakly, with uncertainty in his voice: "The weather was nice that day, and Sister Shuxiang said that she would move all the things in the queen's warehouse to dry in the sun to prevent them from getting damp and moldy. Because our queen was demoted to a concubine before, she moved Some things were lost in the palace's warehouse, so Sister Shuxiang asked us to sort them out and re-enter them..."
The palace maid looked at the anxious Huang Yanyu: "Yianyu is responsible for re-creating the book. At that time, the servant was holding calligraphy and paintings and wanted to go out to dry them. Yanyu said that she was in a hurry and had to go to the toilet, but she hadn't seen her for a long time. Sister Shuxiang still wanted to go out. She was said to be lazy with her limbs and was always lazy. I also wanted to go to the toilet at that time, but when I arrived at the palace, Yanyu was not there."
So at that time, the little palace maid was actually angry. Everyone was so busy, and Huang Yanyu, a new little palace maid, actually left things behind and hid somewhere.
So she wanted to find him.
While looking around, I saw Huang Yanyu passing by Hui Yuan in a pavilion not far from Shun'an Palace.
She didn't say it at first because she didn't know what it had to do with Liang Fei's poisoning.
Moreover, Huang Yanyu herself was poisoned by stealing her mother's chicken soup, but she didn't think about it at all.
But now when the Queen asked, she told the truth.
Shuxiang frowned and said, "I remember, on the day when I was cleaning up the warehouse, Huang Yanyu asked me if those gifts were all given by the ladies in the harem?"
Every gift list and favor exchange is recorded.
Which palace gave it to you? What did you give? Why was it sent?
It turns out that they are all in the old brochures.
In other words, Huang Yanyu knew that the two Ganoderma lucidum flowers were given by the Queen.
Jiang Xinyue looked at Huang Yanyu. The girl's face was pale. She didn't know whether it was because of poisoning or something else.
She took a few deep breaths and said weakly: "I came out of the palace that day and hid in the pavilion for a while. Who knew that a maid like a concubine would pass by there? If I... if I knew that the chicken soup was poisonous, How is it possible to eat secretly? This slave has lost half of his life, does the queen's cousin still doubt my slave?"
"Aren't you dead?"
Jiang Xinyue hit the nail on the head: "But the good concubine inside is in danger. If she is not careful, her life will be at risk."
A taste of poison was a trick she had used in the cold palace.
If the poison was chosen by them, it was the poison that the late empress gave her in the cold palace. As long as the dosage was controlled well, it would not hurt anyone's life.
In order to escape suspicion, Huang Yanyu said that she had secretly drank chicken soup.
The Jiang family is also a prominent figure in the local area. Although they are not as rich as the country, their wealth is not empty talk.
As the in-laws of the Jiang family, how could the Huang family be so bad?
Marriage in the Yan Dynasty focused on a well-matched family, and the Huang family was also a wealthy and noble family.
As the legitimate daughter of the Huang family, what good things has Huang Yanyu not used? What delicious food haven’t you tried?
He wasn't born into a poor family, so how could he crave that sip of chicken soup?
Huang Yanyu swallowed and looked away with a guilty conscience. With just this action, Jiang Xinyue was sure that Liang Fei's poisoning had something to do with her.
She raised her hand: "Come here, send Huang Yanyu to the Xuanjing Department. If you can't find out the mastermind behind it, just throw it into the fish tank to feed the fish."
The two-hundred-kilogram piranha in the Xuanjing Department was feared by everyone in the palace. Rumors about how many people it had eaten are still circulating, making people change their minds.
Huang Yanyu has only been in the palace for a short time, but she has already heard of the piranha's reputation.
Her breathing became rapid and she grabbed the sleeve of the person next to her: "It's Concubine Ru! It's Concubine Ru! It's Concubine Ru who gave her the poison. She asked her slave to sprinkle the poison on the Ganoderma lucidum, and then revealed it to the people in the kitchen. It can relieve coughs and moisturize the lungs, let them cook it for the good concubine. Cousin...cousin, cousin, I was wrong, I don't dare to do it anymore, Rufei forced me, she forced me."
Jiang Xinyue raised her eyes and looked at Ru Fei. Ru Fei looked shocked and angry. She stepped forward and kicked Huang Yanyu to the ground: "You little palace maid is really incomprehensible. I don't even know you, so you poured dirty water on me." , it’s your fault.”
She wanted to harm the queen, but didn't she have the chance to do it yet?
