"You spitting blood, elder brother thirteen is the prince of my direct relative, how could I harm him?" The queen couldn't help crying when she said this: "The bones of elder brother thirteen are not cold now, and his death is unknown. But it was slandered by others...【 】”

"Absurd, how could the empress harm the thirteenth elder brother." The empress dowager also changed her face suddenly.

Wei Ning'er took a step forward and said, "I would like to report to the Empress Dowager, when Elder Thirteen died, several old doctors in the palace went to check it out. Elder Thirteen had been drinking decoctions that were harmful to his body for a long time and injured his internal organs. The six internal organs can't bear it, and the person who vomited blood and died is not poisoned!"

"Xuan several imperial physicians to come!" the emperor ordered in a cold voice.

When the queen heard this, the panic on her face disappeared in a flash, and she secretly told herself to be calm.

None of the imperial physicians dared to hide anything, and they confessed the truth.

"Empress, is this true?" The Empress Dowager's face was full of shock and heartache when she heard this.

It is not a secret in the palace that the empress used soup and medicine to remove the birthmark for the still-infant thirteenth elder brother. Whether it is the empress dowager or the emperor, they have sent people to pay attention to it, but... nothing too big has been found. No, but now the imperial physicians say that those decoctions killed the child, which makes it hard for the Queen Mother to accept.

"Queen..." The emperor looked at the queen with cold eyes.

"No...the concubine did use some prescriptions for the child, but none of them would hurt the child's body, and...Emperor Zheng has always taken care of the thirteenth elder brother according to the concubine's order. Of course he is the one he is most familiar with. , please order the imperial physician Zheng to come here!" The queen said calmly.

"Xuan!" the emperor said coldly.

"Yes!" Wu Shulai immediately ordered the little eunuch to go.

After a while, Imperial Physician Zheng came in with a face full of panic. Facing the emperor's questioning, he was terrified, but seeing the empress' threatening eyes, Imperial Physician Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "The servant also checked the matter that day. , Brother Thirteen was poisoned!"

Doctor Zheng's words set off a storm in the hearts of the emperor and the queen mother, and both of them changed their expressions.

"Your Majesty, several old imperial physicians have served in the palace for many years. In comparison, Imperial Physician Zheng is still young. Is it possible that several imperial physicians are not as sharp as him? What's more, it is impossible for them to ignore such a major event as poisoning." Come out!" Wei Ning'er said respectfully.

"En!" The emperor nodded slightly, thoughtfully.

"The imperial concubine must have been bribed by you, Concubine Ling!" The queen shouted sharply.

"Your Majesty..." Wei Ning'er's expression changed, and just as she was about to say something, several old imperial physicians at the side suddenly knelt down, and the leader of the Imperial Physician Zhang said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, the slaves are serving the master in the palace. We have been together for many years, and never dared to be negligent in the slightest. Now that people are old and their bones cannot withstand the toss, the emperor is sympathetic to the slaves, and he can't bear the slaves to run around in the paddock. He ordered the slaves to stay in the palace to serve the masters. This is the kindness of the emperor. The slave never dared to disobey the emperor's will, the concubine concubine never bought the slave, everything the slave said just now is true, the thirteenth elder brother did die from damage to the internal organs, and was not poisoned, if the slave has half a lie, even if The emperor wants the slave's head, and the slave deserves to die!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, please look into it!" The other three imperial physicians also echoed.

Looking at the four imperial physicians who were kneeling on the ground with tears and grievances, the emperor had blue veins on his forehead, and seeing the empress's face became more and more gloomy, he immediately said to Wu Shu, "please go back and rest, the emperor's hospital The three court envoys are here!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Shulai immediately went to receive the order.

As soon as she heard that Imperial Physician Xuan Li and others were coming, the queen couldn't help but squeeze the handkerchief tightly, and forcibly calmed down.

After Doctor Li and the others arrived, the emperor ordered them to go to the ice cellar to examine the body of Elder Brother Thirteen.

"Report to the emperor, there is poison in the mouth of the thirteenth elder brother!" Li Taiyi reported after careful inspection.

"Could it be that it's pure imperial concubine that you killed the thirteenth elder brother, why don't you hurry up and call for Ai's family!" The queen mother shouted in a deep voice, in a hurry when she heard the words.

"Empress Dowager, my concubine has been wronged!" Concubine Chun Gui and Lu Yunxi knelt down fiercely.

Elder Brother Thirteen has been dead for almost a month, and the body has been placed in the ice cellar, and it has already been frozen stiff. Even if Hua Tuo is still alive, they can't find out the real cause of death just by looking at his face.

"Empress Dowager, there are many doubts now. Sister Chun and Concubine Qing will not harm Elder Brother Thirteen, can you let me ask Imperial Doctor Li for a few words?" Wei Ning'er stood up and said respectfully.

The queen mother nodded sullenly.

"Dare to ask the imperial physicians, apart from finding the poison in Elder Brother Thirteen's mouth, do you have any other abnormalities?" Wei Ning'er asked in a deep voice.

"Qi Madam, the servants found that the birthmark on the face of the thirteenth elder brother has been completely removed, which is really puzzling for the servants and others." Li Taiyi reported.

"Why?" A gleam flashed in Wei Ning'er's eyes.

"The birthmark on Brother Thirteen's face, the servants have thought of a way, but Brother Thirteen is still young, and some medicines are not suitable for it, but if you don't use strong medicine, you will never be able to remove the birthmark!" The queen mother and the emperor In front of him, Imperial Physician Li dared not hide anything.

Wei Ning'er breathed a sigh of relief in her heart and said, "Brother Thirteen has died for a month, and his body has been frozen in the ice cellar, so... can the imperial physicians find out the cause of his death?"

"My lady, I can't wait. After all, the body of the thirteenth elder brother has already been frozen stiff. However, several old doctors are very skilled. They unanimously found that the thirteenth elder brother died of damage to the internal organs. Wait and see, servant, if it is not for ordinary medicine, it will not be able to remove the birthmark on Elder Brother Thirteen's face, and if you use those strong medicines for a long time, it will indeed hurt Elder Thirteen!" Imperial Physician Li said respectfully.

"I heard that if someone is injected with poison after death, the poison will not enter the internal organs. Is there such a thing?" Wei Ning'er asked in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Doctor Li and others responded.

"If you want to know whether Elder Brother Thirteen has been poisoned, is there a way?" Wei Ning'er breathed a sigh of relief when she said this.

"Mistress Qi, there is a way, but it needs to be tested by the clerk of the Ministry of Punishment, but in that way, it will be disrespectful to Brother Thirteen!" Imperial Physician Li returned in a cold sweat.

"Concubine Ling, what is your intention? Yongjing is dead, and you still want someone to disembowel him. I will never agree. If anyone dares to touch Yongjing again, I will die with her!" The queen looked at Looking at Wei Ning'er, her eyes were full of hatred.

"The concubine has absolutely no disrespect towards the thirteenth elder brother, please be aware of it!" Wei Ning'er knew that it was inconvenient for her to say more, and if she continued, she might not be able to deal with the aftermath.

The emperor remained sullen and did not speak.

The queen mother looked at the queen's tear-stained face, she couldn't bear it, and then said in a deep voice: "The Ai family will never allow the inspector of the Ministry of Punishment to come, the child died at a young age, and after death, he will have to suffer such punishment." There is absolutely no crime, not to mention, he is the prince... How could he disembowel him, it's just ridiculous!"

"Emperor Niang's words are very true!" The emperor took a deep breath and said, he couldn't tolerate this matter.

Wei Ning'er heard the words, couldn't help but glanced at the emperor, and then said respectfully: "Your Majesty...Since this is the case, it cannot be concluded that it was Sister Chun and Concubine Qing who poisoned her."

"Yes!" The emperor nodded lightly and said: "The four old doctors only found out that Yong Jing died of damage to internal organs, and did not find out that there was poison in the mouth at that time."

"But Imperial Physician Zheng found out, Your Majesty, the four imperial physicians are old and have dim eyesight, so it is very possible that they cannot be found out!" The Queen said urgently.

"Reporting to the emperor, my concubine has the prescriptions that the imperial physician Zheng gave to the thirteenth elder brother for a long time, as well as the new prescriptions later, and the ointment that the concubine Yi gave to the empress to remove the birthmark, please send someone to check!" Wei Ning'er also sent Out of the killer.

"Come here, order Li Taiyi and several people to check the prescription and ointment!" The emperor ordered in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, it's been a long time since this happened, if the imperial concubine gets involved in it..."

"Your Majesty concluded that the concubine was doing something wrong before the inspection. Could it be that you are guilty, Madam?" By now, Wei Ning'er was a little aggressive and interrupted the Queen's words.

After all, Concubine Chun and Lu Yunxi were still kneeling on the ground waiting for her to save her, so she couldn't bear it any longer.

"Check..." Before the emperor gave an order, the queen mother ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes!" Imperial Physician Li and others responded immediately.

After a while, the result finally came, and Li Taiyi said solemnly: "My Majesty, if Elder Brother Thirteen drank the decoction on this prescription, and then applied this ointment, it would indeed be able to remove the birthmark on his face, but... These medicines will hurt the internal organs of the thirteenth elder brother, and they are very harmful. The thirteenth elder brother is still young and can't stand it. In addition, he has been taking decoction for a long time before, and the damage to his body has accumulated over time, so he suddenly used it like this The strong medicine, life is in danger!"

The emperor slammed on the chair, stood up and shouted: "Queen!"

"Your majesty... this prescription and ointment are all fake!" The queen gritted her teeth.

"Fake? The prescription was found in the residence of Imperial Physician Zheng. The ointment was found by four old imperial physicians in the bedroom of Elder Thirteen when Elder Thirteen died. I dare to ask my mother, Elder Thirteen How did you get rid of the birthmark on your face?" Wei Ning'er pressed on step by step, not giving the queen a chance to breathe.

"It's the work of Imperial Physician Zheng. I wanted to report to the Emperor Ming to reward him, but because the Emperor wanted to visit the Mulan Paddock, I thought of going back to the palace and reporting to the Emperor. I didn't know that such a thing would happen. In the blink of an eye, the child was gone. , Your Majesty, if Yongjing is not in good health, why would the concubine let go of the child and accompany the emperor to the paddock?" The empress had tears all over her face when she said this.

She regretted it, she regretted it a long time ago, before going to the Mulan paddock, Yongjing felt unwell, but...she asked Zheng Taiyi, Zheng Taiyi said that the prescription was changed, the child has not adapted to it, and it will not take a few days Then nothing will happen, seeing the birthmark on the child's face getting weaker and weaker, she also thinks about the good, but... Never thought about it, but ruined Yongjing.

"Credit? Is it credit for killing my prince?" The emperor sneered, and then said to Wu Shulai next to him: "I will pass on my order and drag Taiyi Zheng to serve him under torture. If he doesn't tell the truth, he will be sentenced to death." Ask all the people to kill!"

"Yes!" Wu Shulai knew that the emperor was serious, and immediately took orders to drag him down.
