Reborn from the ashes: The Fifth Miss Devil

397. Where the Poison Comes from

Dongfang Chen's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said in a deep voice, "Call all the servants in."

Yun Xiyao nodded, turned her head, and ordered the female officer beside her to notify everyone.Soon, all the eunuchs and maids of Shuyan Palace came in.Yun Jingchu and Yun Jingxi quietly stepped aside.

Dongfang Chen and Yun Xiyao sat at the main seats, and there were nearly twenty people kneeling densely on the ground, except for Xue Xue, who was taking care of the third prince, everyone else had arrived.

"Tell me, why did the Third Prince get poisoned?" Dongfang Chen said coldly.

"..." Everyone fell on the ground tremblingly, but no one answered.

"Who was in charge of taking care of the third prince yesterday?" Dongfang Chen looked around the crowd, his voice becoming more and more condensed.

"It's a servant girl." The nanny and the two little maids replied with trembling voices at the same time.

"Okay, tell me everything that happened yesterday. If there is a slight mistake, I will not forgive you lightly. Nanny, tell me first." Dongfang Chen said sharply.

The nanny said with a trembling voice: "Yesterday, when I got up early in the morning, the servant fed the third prince, and then took her to the imperial garden to bask in the sun. After half an hour, the sun gradually became stronger, so the servant took him back to the room. In the room, during this period, the servants left three times, and they were all watched by Bai Bing and Bai Ling. In the afternoon, after the third prince had a nap, the empress asked the servants to take the third prince to her room, and the empress stayed with the third prince until At night, when it was time for the third prince to go to bed, the servants took him away and coaxed him to sleep. In the middle of the night, the servants were suddenly woken up by Bai Ling, who was on guard at night, and only then did they know that something had happened to the third prince... Your majesty, the servants don’t know what happened. Wrong?"

"Do you two have anything to add?" Dongfang Chen looked at the other two court ladies.

"Just like what the nanny said, the slave and the servant have been with the nanny to help her take care of the third prince. They only leave occasionally, but one of them must take turns to stay and help the nanny." A palace maid said in a trembling voice.

"What about the others? I'll give you another chance. If you recruit, I will blame one person. If you don't recruit, you will be punished as the crime of deceiving the emperor, and the whole family will be blamed." Dongfang Chen said coldly.

"..." Everyone remained silent.

"Very good, you don't want to recruit, right? Someone, tell the imperial doctor to come in." Dongfang Chen raised his voice with cold eyes.

A little eunuch quickly ran to the door to convey Dongfang Chen's will.

Soon, four imperial doctors quickly entered the door, bowing down to Dongfang Chen and Yun Xiyao.

"How is it? Did you find anything?" Dongfang Chen asked in a deep voice.

"Report to the emperor, the four ministers have searched almost all the rooms in Shuyan Palace, and found no poison." The leading imperial doctor said cautiously.

"This Shuyan Palace, is there anything else that hasn't been checked?" Dongfang Chen said coldly.

The imperial doctor was silent for a while, and then said cautiously: "...the room of Concubine Shu has not been inspected."

"Go and investigate immediately!" Dongfang Chen said coldly.

"Yes." The four imperial doctors got up, and Yun Xiyao ordered Lady Linglong to take them to her room.

The room fell silent.Many people knelt quietly on the ground, not daring to make a sound.Occasionally, only Dongfang Chen made a small sound when drinking tea.

About half a cup of tea, an imperial doctor hurried out, holding two things in a white handkerchief, bowed and said: "I found it, it's in the empress's powder box and rouge."

Everyone was stunned, Yun Xiyao's face turned pale instantly.
