Gua Fei in the world

Chapter 895 Involved in the Prince's Death

After hearing this, Wen Tingzhan fell into deep thought, and after a moment of silence, he said: "If you are really from Yuan Guoshi, I'm afraid it's just an intention to trick you."

"Any other intentions?" Ye Yaoguang asked with a frown.

"There are two other intentions." Wen Tingzhan stretched out his fingers, "First, this incident broke out suddenly, and happened to collide with the matter of King Ning'an. I'm afraid they are determined to win King Ning'an. This is to distract you; second, I want to use this to test how much strength you really have."

Ye Yaoguang nodded and sighed, "Sure enough, Ah Zhan is thoughtful."

Wen Tingzhan smiled and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Then tell me, should I use this to lure them out?" Ye Yaoguang asked again.

Wen Tingzhan spread out his hands: "As you wish."

"This matter can't be fooled around." Ye Yaoguang frowned, "I want to use this to lure them out and see what they're up to, but I'm worried that things will get out of my control."

"Silly Yaoyao, you forgot that Uncle Qianji is standing behind you, if not, why would they test you?" Wen Tingzhan reached out and rubbed Ye Yaoguang's long hair, "And there is someone standing behind them It's not Yuan Ding, but a Yuan Guoshi lying in the imperial mausoleum. Although Yuan Ding won't stand by and watch when they have any difficulties due to affection, but if they provoke you, hmph—"

Ye Yaoguang narrowed his eyes, hugged Wen Tingzhan's head, and kissed him hard on the cheek: "Smart."

This is a loophole. Uncle Qianji did not interfere with Yuan Yi's actions, but he did not say that he would not interfere with anyone other than Yuan Yi. Would those people dare to kill her?

So Ye Yaoguang saw that it was still early, and it would take another hour to eat, so he pulled Wen Tingzhan aside, sealed the room, and then released the female ghost in Tianlin: "Tell me, I Let's see what kind of problem the people behind you have prepared for me."

"I'm a maid from the Shanggong Bureau." The first sentence that the female ghost spoke made Ye Yaoguang and Wen Tingzhan startled.

There are six respects in the palace: Shang Gong, Shang Yi, Shang Fu, Shang Shi, Shang Sleeping, Shang Gong, who are in charge of the government of the palace.The six Shanggongs are the female officials of the second grade. This is the system that Yuan Taizu followed the Sui and Tang Dynasties. , palm weaving, silk weaving, palm weaving and dyeing.There are codes, palms, and female envoys.

Since this female ghost claims to be a palace lady, she should be the lowest maidservant. Neither Ye Yaoguang nor Wen Tingzhan thought that they really took a lot of effort to catch a female ghost from the palace, and this female ghost The matter involving ghosts is not an ordinary matter, but about the death of Xiao Shirui's father, Prince Deming.

Her name is Cuiyi, and she was assigned to the Shanggong Bureau after entering the palace, and was given the name by Shang Gong at that time.Because of her dexterity, she is particularly spiritual in needlework, so she works as an embroidery supervisor in the department.Basically, they are the clothes of the concubines with status in the harem and the emperor.Although the crown prince's East Palace has its own supervisor, but many things for needlework are done by the Shanggong Bureau.

Twenty-five years ago, when His Royal Highness was getting weaker and weaker, Cui Yi followed the orders of the Secretary of the Shanggong Bureau by accident, and sent cloth and needlework to the East Palace, as well as a set of His Royal Highness's regular clothes. They make patterns embroidered by themselves.

The vivid Cantonese embroidery made Cuiyi, who was hungry for embroidery skills, send away the accompanying little sister, wanting to take a closer look, but I don't know if it was the Sizhi's carelessness, there was a needle on the clothes, it stands to reason After the prince's clothes are finished, they have to be sent to the Clothes Bureau to be washed, dried and incensed, and then sent there. However, after going through these processes, the needle has not been discovered.

And Cuiyi accidentally stabbed her hand while touching the embroidered pattern, and the blood stains stained the clothes of His Royal Highness, she was very panicked at that time.In the end, she forced herself to calm down. Every maid in the palace has a fixed number of needles. She heard that His Highness the Crown Prince was kind, so she wanted to intercede.

But with her rank, where can she see the prince?When the clothes are sent over, it is natural to hand over to the relevant female officials of the Eastern Palace, but as soon as the female officials of the Eastern Palace see the blood stains on the clothes, they will definitely question her.Feeling apprehensive, before she went to the handover, she met the crown princess who just returned to the palace, so she plucked up the courage to kneel in front of the crown princess, claiming that she had something to report to the crown princess, which was related to the murder of the crown prince.

The Crown Princess had someone take her into the Eastern Palace, and interrogated her in person. Cuiyi said that when she was passing by the Imperial Garden, she was accidentally dazzled by the sun, and found something in His Royal Highness's uniform. After searching carefully, she found a needle. And when she went to pull out the needle, she accidentally pricked her finger and soiled His Highness's uniform.

The Crown Princess was naturally annoyed, there was a needle on her regular clothes, if one accidentally stuck it into His Highness the Crown Prince's body, it would really be suspected of murdering the Crown Prince.But the clothes passed through Shanggong Bureau, Huanyi Bureau, and Shangfu Bureau. To find out the source of this needle, it would take a lot of fighting.

In the end, the Crown Princess reported the incident to the Crown Prince. His Royal Highness only pondered for a while before laughing and said: "No one has faults, even negligence is common. Let's just expose this matter. You can go back."

In this way, Cuiyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that she had escaped death at last, since His Royal Highness did not pursue it, then no one would know about this matter, and she was betting right.If she took the regular clothes back to the Shanggong Bureau, even if she said the same thing, she might become a victim.

However, Cuiyi did not expect that from the second day, her finger pierced by the needle would become red and swollen. Because the princess was afraid that someone would murder the prince, she sent the imperial doctor to test whether the needle was poisonous. At that time, Cuiyi Also, the imperial physician assured that the needle was non-toxic.Therefore, Cuiyi didn't take it to heart on the first day.

In the next two days, not only did her finger not heal, but it became more and more serious. It took only three days for her finger to fester, and it looked extremely scary. Only then did she realize that something was wrong. She must have been poisoned.Since the poison didn't come from that needle, it must be the crown prince's regular clothes!

For a moment, Cuiyi seemed to realize that she had come into contact with some terrible conspiracy.She was so frightened that she didn't dare to go to the imperial hospital, even the prince dared to poison someone, if there was no one in the imperial hospital, how did the poison soaked in the clothes come from.

However, her fingers became more and more difficult to hide, and she had no chance to go to the East Palace to report to His Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess. With her rank, it was a blessing to meet the Crown Princess once in a while. One finger, even if you are relegated to the cold palace to work, you must save your life.
