Chapter 271 Token
What Dou Shiyuan holds in his hand is half a brown plant.
This half-brown plant has three or four leaves, which are like serrated leaves, and there is a layer of fine white hair on the middle root.
After hearing Zheng Ji's question, Dou Shiyuan couldn't help blurting out: "Your Highness, do you recognize this object?"
After he took out this object, His Highness's expression changed.
Obviously, His Highness knew what it was.
However, this is something that the Dou family has worked so hard to find out. How could His Highness know about it?
He momentarily. I don’t know how to introduce this to His Highness.
Li Xing'en's eyes fell on this half brown plant, full of doubts.
To be honest, he had been working in the palace for most of his life and didn't know what it was.
Master Dou took out this object, which obviously showed that this object was extraordinary. His Highness's expression showed that he recognized this object.
However, how could His Highness know something that he didn't even know?
Zheng Ji blinked his eyes, trying his best to calm down the sudden anger in his heart, and his expression softened a lot.
Yes, she knew what it was.
Anyone who has seen this plant will never yearn for the reality of time for the rest of his life, because this thing is too vicious.
Only half a plant like this can make a person die of fear.
Afterwards, even the most powerful criminals in the country would not find out the truth and would only come to the conclusion that they died of fear.
The reason Zheng Ji knew about this thing was because...she saw someone using it in Anlehou Mansion.
Or use it on Aunt Huinan beside her!
At that time, nothing happened to the mother-in-law, so she still kept Aunt Huinan by her side. With Aunt Huinan's help, she was able to fight against Lin Jun.
But not long after, Aunt Huinan suddenly fell to the ground with palpitations after scolding Lin Jun's maid, and soon died.
She couldn't accept this at all. No matter what the imperial doctor said, she insisted on inviting officials from the Ministry of Justice to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Officials from the Ministry of Punishment also did their best, but in the end nothing was found.
Until something happened to the mother-in-law and her status in the Anlehou Mansion plummeted. Before she was taken to prison, Lin Jun came to see her and told her what she had done over the years.
One of them is the death of Aunt Huinan.
The half plant that Lin Jun's maid took out was the same as the one that Dou Shiyuan took out in front of her!
Brown, jagged, white down.
She will never forget, and she can never forget.
At that time, Lin Jun told her with a smile that half of the plant was worth thousands of gold. Just half of it could make a person die of heart palpitations. If it was used on an aunt in the palace, it would be an advantage for her.
At that time, she wished she could rush up and tear Lin Jun to pieces, and she would deeply imprint this half of the plant in her mind.
It wasn't until much later that she realized that this plant was not naturally occurring, but a murderous weapon watered with poison, which was rare in the world.
No wonder Lin Jun said that using it on Aunt Huilan was overkill.
Even in the previous life, she mobilized Chang Ding's soldiers to search, but she could only find two such things, and they were all destroyed in the end.
Seeing this thing again reminded her of her days in Anlehou Mansion and the death of Aunt Huinan, and she couldn't help but feel angry.
Now, Dou Shiyuan would have such a thing?
She calmed down the ups and downs in her heart and asked again: "Cheng Yong's death is related to this thing? Where did you get this thing?"
"..." Dou Shiyuan nodded, feeling that he needed some time to think about how to answer.
Your Highness seems to know everything? So what should he say?
At this time, Zheng Ji indeed knew that Cheng Yong's death was related to this object.
No wonder, the Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Justice couldn't find anything. No wonder, there were rumors in the court that Cheng Yong was mad at him.
Although the DPRK and China have not really found out the cause of Cheng Yong’s death,
, but he must have died of fear.
The Dou family took out this half of the plant, and they must have figured out something.
"I don't know much about this, so please tell me." Zheng Ji's tone became calmer and he said slowly.
There's no point in being angry. The most important thing is to know where the half of the plant came from.
In the previous life, it appeared in Lin Jun's hands, but in this life, it was sent to him by Dou Shiyuan.
"Your Highness, this thing is called "Deng Wuyou". It is actually a highly poisonous thing. Taking it for more than three days will make a person's heart beat faster when he is excited. In the end, he will be unable to bear the fear and die. Dou Shiyuan replied, pointing to the half plant.
Deng Wuyou?
Zheng Ji lowered his eyes, with a mocking smile appearing at the corners of his eyes and mouth.
Isn’t it Deng Wuyou? Once you reach the place of bliss, you will truly be worry-free forever.
Such a nice name, if you don’t know it, you might think it has a great meaning, but it’s actually so vicious.
"Your Highness, to be honest, this half of Deng Wuyou was acquired by my grandfather by chance. It came from Prince Yi's Mansion!"
Hearing the words "Prince Yi's Mansion", Zheng Ji's pupils suddenly shrank, and even Li Xing'en opened his mouth slightly.
Prince Yi's Mansion? Is this matter really related to Prince Yi's Mansion?
Cheng Kezhen's uncle had a close relationship with Prince Yi's Mansion. Could it be that the half of Deng Wuyou had indeed flowed from Prince Yi's Mansion?
That means that the person behind Cheng Yong's death who dealt with Princess Changding's Mansion was King Yi!
Shi Dingfang found out about Prince Yi's Mansion and Cheng Kezhen, but Zheng Ji was still not sure. Now, add this half of Deng Wuyou.
Is this the truth?
At this time, she suddenly remembered the exile of King Yi in her previous life.
In his previous life, King Yi made a big mistake and was exiled because he intended to murder his father. This was an unavoidable crime.
Now think about it, what exactly did Brother Yiwang commit at that time? She only knew it was a big deal, but she had forgotten what it would be like later.
Come to think of it, he came to Wuyou from here to murder?
Zheng Jiji's mind was in turmoil and she couldn't figure it out for a moment, but she managed to remain calm and asked: "If it is such an important thing, how could you get it from Prince Yi's Mansion?"
Although he knew that the Dou family had defected to Yi Sui before, but at this time, nothing had happened yet.
Dou Shiyuan came to him like this, and it was all changed in this life. How could such an important thing be obtained if no one knew the value of this thing better than he did?
Did Du Shiyuan understand that he could have ignored all the important things again?
But Dou Shiyuan's answer made her silent again. She didn't expect that the truth of the matter would be so simple. It was so simple that she couldn't believe it. Is this true?
Suddenly, she burst out laughing. Regardless of whether it was true, she also wanted to know what was going on. Did she overlook something?
