Shuntian Mansion.
In the side room, Zhu Cheng looked at Shan Shen and Xu Jian warily.
Xu Jian sat on the Taishi's chair by the window, leaning on the back of the chair, drinking tea slowly and leisurely, as if this was a teahouse rather than the backyard of a yamen.
Shan Shen sat on another chair by the door, looked at Zhu Cheng, and then at Xu Jian.
Good guy.
Duke Fuguo changed his enthusiasm during the midnight interrogation yesterday and turned into a clay Buddha statue again.
Shan Shen touched his beard.
It’s not that I’m not used to it, it’s not that I’m not satisfied, it’s just that I’m not used to it.
Think about it again, isn’t that what a clay statue should be like if it works sometimes and sometimes doesn’t work.
Every time I asked the spirit, there was a response. The smoke from the ancestral grave might cause a mountain fire.
After calming down, Shan Shen took out the prescription and kept thinking about it.
Zhu Cheng's brows wrinkled.
Master Shan, what does this mean?
He didn't ask about the gold bricks, Li Yuanfa, or the prince. Instead, he thought about medicinal materials.
Wait, these medicinal materials...
Zhu Cheng subconsciously clenched his hands into fists.
This seems to be...
For eight years, he thought he had forgotten it, but it was not until this moment that he realized that this recipe was all in his mind.
Although the order was different from what he remembered, the medicinal ingredients were these.
In the middle of the night, Duke Fu mentioned that the prince had used this recipe to harm His Highness Prince Ding, but what now?
Where did Shan Shen get the prescription?
Was the prince arrested? Or did that woman also get the prescription from her godfather? Or, at home...
Shan Shen's eyes were sharp, and he could see Zhu Cheng's fidgeting.
"Does this sound familiar?" Shan Shen asked, "Is the Fourth Master extremely curious about the origin of this recipe?
I am a straightforward person and don't like beating around the bush, so I told the truth to the Fourth Master.
Your mansion went crazy today. The Crown Prince's wife wanted to poison your wife, but your concubine found out and stopped her. Your concubine sent reinforcements. Princess Ning'an came to rescue you, and Cining Palace invited an imperial doctor to see you.
This is a prescription written by an imperial doctor. The poison in your wife's body is the mixture of these things.
Oops, this is exactly what your outsider said. "
Zhu Cheng was stunned and couldn't believe his ears.
What does it mean to be crazy?
Why would my sister-in-law suddenly do something like that?
No, the sister-in-law can’t, it must be the eldest brother, that is the father...
"Fourth Master, why don't you be more cheerful and admit it yourself? Otherwise, I will just follow the clues. I may not be able to find the king's servants, but it is not difficult to dig through the British Duke's palace," Shan Shen said, He chuckled, "It's true this year, there was an accident in Lao Shih Alley at the beginning of the year, and I almost lost my hat.
Thanks to His Majesty's mercy, I can finally continue to be the governor of Shuntian, but this year's assessment is definitely over.
Unexpectedly, things will turn around this autumn. When I take over your British government, I will be able to get an advantage in this performance evaluation, right?
What do you think? Assist the Duke. "
Xu Jian raised his eyes and nodded thoughtfully: "I can also get some light."
Zhu Cheng was angry.
These two people dare to talk about credit here without any substantial evidence!
Outside, a clerk reported: "Eunuch Cao is here."
Xu Jian got up and walked out.
When he reached the door and paused, he turned around and reminded Zhu Cheng: "Instead of murmuring about me and Mr. Shan, you might as well murmur about your father and your brother. I am not afraid of big troubles when watching the excitement, and I also want to learn how father, son and brothers can tear each other apart." Shameless.”
After saying that, Xu Jian strode out.
Shan Shen glanced at Zhu Cheng's charcoal face and said, "I don't have that hobby. I hope that the Zhu family will save some trouble."
After saying that, Shan Shen also left.
Zhu Cheng was left alone and fell down in anger.
With his anger back and his sense still intact, he could clearly hear that those two people, one in black and one in white, were full of offensive words, especially Xu Jian, who was also sowing discord.
But after understanding it, he still got angry, and even with that little provocation, he started to purr.
In front of the court, Xu Jian met Eunuch Cao.
Gonggong Cao said straight to the point: "Come and identify the child."
Xu Jian said: "She is imprisoned with her nanny. Master Shan sent someone to pick her up."
Soon, the yamen came with the child.
The child timidly hid behind the Yamen servant, not daring to show his head.
Eunuch Cao was not polite. He took a step forward, bent down and pinched the child's chin, and looked closely at his facial features.
When he saw it clearly, he let go of his hand and wiped his fingertips with a handkerchief.
Shan Shen asked someone to take the child away again.
"I don't dare to tell the truth, but the child's eyes are quite similar to that one," Eunuch Cao said. "It seems that he is very close, and he is most likely his son."
Shan Shen hurriedly talked about the prescription: "The British government wants to silence the prescription confirmed by the two courts. The person behind this prescription may not be as simple as the king's servant."
Eunuch Cao's expression became solemn: "Why did you alert Cining Palace? Did the princess invite you?"
"The princess and Miss Zhu are good friends." Shan Shen replied.
While the two sides were talking, the drums were beating loudly outside.
Second uncle Yu put down the drumsticks, straightened his chest, and walked into the yamen together with third uncle Yu.
Zhu Xiang followed in and introduced Duke Fu and Lord Shan to the two of them.
Shan Shen was waiting for the Yu family to come to file a complaint, so he introduced: "This is Eunuch Cao who is with the Holy Master. He came to ask about Mr. Zhu Si's case, and he was talking about the poisonous prescription."
Zhu Xiang saluted Eunuch Cao.
The two uncles from the Yu family exchanged looks.
The princess said that she had informed Cining Palace, and now the Holy One has sent someone to inquire, and judging from Lord Shan's attitude towards Zhu Xiang, it seems that the subsequent trend should be unfavorable to the British government.
After thinking this way, the two of them became more confident and took out the paper.
Eunuch Cao asked Zhu Xiang and came out after knowing that Lin Yunyan was on the carriage outside.
"Princess," Eunuch Cao said through the curtain, "over there at Cining Palace..."
Lin Yunyan got out of the car and said honestly: "I just happened to meet her. I heard Zhu Xiang said about her mother, so I was wondering if I could ask the imperial doctor to take a look, maybe there would be a chance to wake up.
As a result, such a situation occurred today. It was urgent at the time, so I asked Grandma Wang to be found, and she came forward to invite two imperial doctors.
Unexpectedly, not only could she not be saved, but her mother was also found to have been poisoned.
In fact, I have not reported this to the Queen Mother. I will go to the palace to apologize to the Queen Mother soon. "
"Princess is kind-hearted. Please give me your head for the handkerchief." Eunuch Cao smiled. Thinking that Li Mi was involved behind the incident, he warned again, "Princess, please spend more time with Miss Zhu to unravel the problem. We will investigate later." Leave it to Shuntian Mansion."
"I understand the importance." Lin Yunyan thanked her.
Turning towards the princess and Feng Xiaoyu, the smile on Eunuch Cao's face disappeared instantly.
He rushed to the Tai Hospital without stopping and found An and Feng, two hospital judges.
"Is there any explanation for the poison?" he asked.
Judge Feng glanced at Judge An.
As an old imperial doctor, An Yuanjian knew the importance of doing too much rather than doing too little. Mother Ma gave her advice yesterday, and he took it seriously.
Therefore, he kept silent about what happened yesterday, and only said one result: "Although the dosage of the medicine is different, the symptoms of Mrs. Zhu Si and the condition of His Highness Prince Ding at that time are very likely to come from the same bottom prescription."
Eunuch Cao took a deep breath: "Master An, you mean that His Highness Prince Ding did not die of illness?"
"Yes," Judge An Yuan replied, "His Royal Highness Prince Ding was harmed. The poison recipe was so cunning that it was hidden from the eyes of all the imperial doctors at the time, including me. We are guilty."
Magistrate Feng wanted to help Magistrate An: "Look at the records, it was the old Master Mao who gave His Highness the prescription to die. Didn't he really notice it at the beginning? He is from Lingnan, maybe he has seen the foreigners there. Use poison, poison, etc..."
Eunuch Cao pursed his lips.
Lingnan people?
Speaking of which, before leaving the palace just now, he carefully looked through the roster from the previous year.
The king's chamberlain, whose original name was Wang Liuliu, wasn't he from Lingnan?
For such a big matter, he must report it to His Majesty in its entirety.
In the imperial study room, the Holy Master had a gloomy face.
Eunuch Cao gritted his teeth and reported each item one by one.
Through Xu Jian's report after the early court, the Holy Emperor was already aware of the collusion between the British Duke's government and the king's chamberlain and Li Mi. This result was not unexpected by him.
Until he heard "The Death of King Ding".
"Let the Imperial Forest surround the British Duke's Mansion," the Holy Emperor said without any hesitation, "Tell Zhu Chang to come to the Imperial Study Room!"
Zhu Chang refers to the British public.
Before noon, the Royal Guardsmen stood outside the British palace.
The British Duke tremblingly got into the carriage arranged by the palace, with only one thought in his mind: he had to cut his throat.
