From the moment the emperor appeared, things became more than just a bet between Yun Jiutang and Mu Anli!
If she can't solve it properly, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to escape unscathed today!
After all, the whole world knew that the emperor's favorite princess was Princess Huaiyu Mu Anli.
Slander her?
It's just an old birthday girl hanging himself, he's tired of living!
But Yun Jiutang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This was the moment she had been waiting for!
So she replied in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Father, I was making a bet with the princess just now, betting that I could smell the ingredients in the things prepared by the princess. If I lose, I will be punished; if I win, the princess will be punished. "
"Yes." The emperor responded patiently. He naturally knew this.
"Please ask Father to be a witness to this bet!" Yun Jiutang said again.
At this time, the emperor's brows frowned.
What he wanted to know was Musk, but Yun Jiutang avoided the important and ignored the easy!
The queen reminded her in time: "Princess Zhenbei, the emperor is asking you about musk, just answer truthfully!"
"I have already answered truthfully. There is musk in it, but I cannot verify it." Yun Jiutang said innocently, "Maybe the princess can verify that there is no musk in it?"
"You... you obviously want to win me at all costs! And you dare to slander me! You vicious woman!" Mu Anli gritted his teeth and glared at her, "Father, you must not forgive her!"
The emperor also turned cold and said, "How outrageous! Since you can't verify it, how dare you slander the princess with these unfounded things! It's simply unreasonable!"
He was so angry that he immediately fell to his knees again.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
The emperor could not calm down his anger, his murderous eyes were still locked on Yun Jiutang.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry with this person! She is used to being ridiculous!" The queen looked at Yun Jiutang with disdain, as if she was looking at a useless waste.
Isn’t it just trash?
I originally expected her to be her own spy in Zhenbei Palace and be used by her!
Even this time, with the help of Musk, he brought down Concubine Zhuang and even Mu Canglin.
As a result, she got such an ambiguous result!
Her expectations were dashed, and the queen's heart was filled with anger.
"Come here! Take her out of here!"
"Queen, wait a minute!"
"Mother, calm down!"
For a moment, two voices sounded together.
Yun Jiutang knelt in front of the emperor and looked at Mu Canglin who was kneeling beside him in surprise.
What is he here for?
While in trance, he heard Mu Canglin say: "Father, Queen! The smell of what An Li prepared is too exciting and complex. It is normal for Yun to make mistakes! Please forgive her for the fact that this is her first offender." This time!”
"I heard it right!"
"Shut up!" Mu Canglin quickly pressed her down.
"The King of Zhenbei is eager to protect his wife, but don't forget that the root cause of everything is because she hurt Lu Lingyan arbitrarily!
As Mr. Xuan Yi's disciple, Lu Lingyan, the Queen Mother and the concubines in the palace have always relied on her for health care!
Now that you have hurt her so much, not to mention that you cannot explain it to Mr. Xuan Yi, but when the Queen Mother has a headache and is in unbearable pain, no one can treat her!
The emperor has always been benevolent and filial, but you let the emperor watch his mother suffer, but he was helpless. How can you bear it! "The Queen's words easily poured a bucket of boiling oil on the Emperor's original anger!
"What? My mother has a headache again!" The emperor was furious.
"Yes, Your Majesty, we have arranged for the imperial doctor to come over just now, and with the massage given by Aunt Xunfang, the Queen Mother has been relieved a lot. But Aunt Xunfang is not a doctor after all, and her skills are far less skillful and precise than Miss Lu's." The Queen sighed.
"My mother is sick. If you don't go to Shouchang Palace to take care of her illness, what are you doing here?" The emperor became even more angry.
The queen quickly explained and tried to comfort him, which finally calmed down his anger.
But he only extinguished his anger towards the Queen. Facing Yun Jiutang, the Emperor was still furious.
"Yun Jiutang! Harm Lu Lingyan! Delay the Queen Mother's condition! Poison the King of Jin! Slander Princess Huaiyu, you are simply punishable!" The emperor sternly reprimanded, "Come here! Send this poisonous woman to the prison! Wait! Get frustrated!"
"Father, calm down! Let me explain clearly to you, and it won't be too late to deal with me!" Yun Jiutang faced this scene, but he still didn't panic at all.
The emperor narrowed his eyes and said nothing, but the pressure was so overwhelming that the whole room was silent.
"you say!"
"My son, I have something to say to the princess," Yun Jiutang said.
The emperor agreed!
Yun Jiutang said again: "May I ask the princess, are the ingredients I just mentioned correct?"
"Only half right, there are still some things I haven't said yet!" Mu Anli said angrily, "Besides, there is no musk!"
"The rest should be the mud in the lotus pond!" Yun Jiutang said, "Among the things the princess asked people to prepare, there was a faint fragrance of lotus mixed with the stench of rotting mud.
This level of sludge smell has not been cleaned for at least three years. Erchen remembered that there seemed to be such an abandoned lotus pond in the palace, not too far from Huarong Palace. Did the princess ask someone to go there to get mud? "
"So what!" Mu Anli frowned. Although she knew that Yun Jiutang was right, she didn't want to admit defeat, so she said, "Then there is still no Musk! You lost! You can't afford to lose. , you must have deliberately slandered that there was musk in it! It’s so vicious!”
She didn't even need to add the few things she made up, it was enough to make Yun Jiutang unable to stand up!
Who dared her to talk nonsense and slander her with musk!
"So, except for the musk, I said everything right, right?" Yun Jiutang said seriously.
Mu Anli struggled for a while and said coldly: "That's right! But so what! There is no musk in it! If you accuse me of using musk, you deserve to die!"
"Then I win." Yun Jiutang smiled lightly.
Everyone, "..."
How could she still laugh? Is this a matter of winning or losing? This is a matter of life and death!
At this time, Mu Canglin hurriedly said: "Father, Yun has proven to everyone her sense of smell. This means that she smelled the smell of Third Brother's ulcerated wounds and the smell of poisonous thorn in the ointment. What’s going on!”
"So what?" The emperor was still unhappy.
"Back to my father, Yun's move just proves that Lu Lingyan's attempt to use the injuries on himself and his third brother to slander Yun's poisoning has been self-defeating!" Mu Canglin said sternly.
When Lu Lingyan heard this, his eyes widened immediately and he struggled to get up.
She seemed to have a thousand words to say, but unfortunately she could not utter a single one.
Mu Mingchao's eyes flickered to Lu Lingyan and Yun Jiutang, but he just scratched his head.
So, he misunderstood Yun Jiutang again?
He really deserves to die!
However, Concubine Zhuang spoke up to defend Lu Lingyan and said, "Lingyan must not have done this! There must be a misunderstanding!"
"Does the mother trust Lu Lingyan, an outsider, so much, but not the son?" Mu Canglin said solemnly, "Then what if the fake death drug that the son took that day was actually the Snow Flame Flower Poison produced in Beirong. If so. Without Yun Jiutang's intervention, Er Chen would have been killed long ago! And that pill was given to Er Chen by Lu Lingyan himself! Would Mother and Concubine still believe her?"
Lu Lingyan shook her head desperately, tears trickling down her cheeks, she felt extremely wronged.
"Impossible! The spirit smoke will never harm you!" Concubine Zhuang immediately rejected his statement, "There must be a hidden secret in this matter!"
"What's the secret?" Mu Canglin asked, "The evidence is all in front of the mother and concubine, but the mother and concubine still doesn't want to believe it?"
"How can you make me believe this! Lingyan almost lost her life in order to save you! You actually repay kindness with hatred! Lin'er, I am so disappointed!" Concubine Zhuang said coldly.
"Why don't you let Lu Lingyan explain it yourself!" Mu Canglin said coldly, "Why are there snow flame flowers in the fake death medicine you gave me!"
"Lin'er, you are clearly trying to force someone to do something difficult. You know clearly that Lingyan was poisoned by the poisonous thorn flower and her mute point was sealed. How could she defend herself?" Concubine Zhuang said coldly, "Are you trying to unjustly kill her while she is weak? ?”
"As Mr. Xuan Yi's disciple, can't you even unlock the dumb point?" Mu Canlin said solemnly, "In this case, I have to doubt your identity!"
Hearing this, Lu Lingyan struggled hard, but suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.
Everyone was startled, but they heard her say in a hoarse voice: "I... have never... harmed... the prince..."
The sound was as rough as scratching a rusty iron plate with fingernails, and the listener felt uncomfortable all over.
And when she said a word, she kept gasping for air, looking like she was going to collapse at any moment.
"It is a fact that I have been poisoned by Snow Flame Flower Poison! It is also obvious to all that my third brother has been poisoned by Poisonous Thorn Flower Poison!" Mu Canglin said with a cold face, "Lu Lingyan, give me a reasonable explanation!"
