Heart-reading princess is rich

Chapter 249 That's My Brother

Xiaohong, who was at the side, also held the broken jade piece tightly, and didn't even notice that her palm was scratched.

"go on!"

"It's snow mountain royal jelly and millennium ginseng powder." Prophet Chen hooked his lips, "These two things are not uncommon, it's just that ginseng powder is too expensive and only the official family can have it. As for this royal jelly, because the queen bee in the snow mountain has it Therefore, although it is rare, it is still used exclusively by the royal family, and the combination of the two can detoxify the colorless and odorless poison, make it show its original shape, and dissolve all the medicine powder obtained by merging it. .”

"Although these two things are not uncommon, they are not rare, and who would carry these two things at the same time?" Zongzheng Xiaoting frowned, as if thinking of something, and asked Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, I heard that this snow mountain royal jelly is used by the nobles of Yunguang Kingdom?"

"Yes!" Xiaohong's face was very ugly, but she still replied, "As far as I know, this snow mountain royal jelly is only available to the royal family of Yunguang Kingdom, and in the past few years, due to the difficulty of traveling in the snow mountain, it has been four consecutive years that I have not used it. I paid tribute. Not long ago, I heard that the Empress Dowager misses her very much, but unfortunately, there is still no way to satisfy her greed."

"No." Zongzheng Xiaoting frowned, "Since these two are so rare, Imperial Physician Chen, how did you obtain them?"

"The millennium ginseng powder has been collected a lot from Zhanwang Mansion. Fortunately, this snow mountain royal jelly is in Zhanwang Mansion." Prophet Chen handed the snow mountain royal jelly and millennium ginseng powder to Zongzheng Xiaoting.

After taking the stuff from Prophet Chen, Zongzheng Xiaoting took a look at Xiaohong, and heard her say, "My lord doesn't like sweets, and my lord got a lot of snow mountain royal jelly before, because I never ate it, so I kept it as a treasure. In Fuchu, there are special personnel to conduct wiping inspections every day."

"This is the reason why the lower official is in such a hurry to find the princess." Prophet Chen said eagerly, "The lower official is worried that the murderer's accomplice is in the Prince Zhan's residence."

Hearing this, Zongzheng Xiaoting just raised her eyebrows lightly, without the slightest expression of fear on her face, she said with a slight smile, "Originally, the murderer is around the palace, what difference does it make if he is in the Zhanwang Palace or not?"

"No, princess, the matter is not that simple." Prophet Chen shook his head, "Because royal jelly is very rare in the snow mountain, sir, when you ask for royal jelly, you still need to get the consent of the prince. This is enough to show that this thing is not someone It's all possible, but unfortunately, when the official sprinkled my ginseng powder, does the princess know what happened?"

"What?" Zongzheng Xiaoting asked.

"At this time, before the snow mountain royal jelly was used, the broken jade beads appeared in sight. Beside the broken jade, there was another hand bone with only four fingers." Prophet Chen frowned, "That is to say, All this may be far more complicated than what the princess knew and guessed. Such a situation can only prove that there was a third person present at the time, and this third person must have been poisoned to death by bone erosion , and because he had been in contact with the royal jelly before, so the hand that had been in contact with the jade was able to restore a small part of it under this effect."

With a bang, Xiaohong suddenly fell to the ground and passed out, and Zongzheng Xiaoting looked at her palm, and saw that the fragments of jade beads scratched her palm beyond recognition.

"Show her quickly!" Zongzheng Xiaoting instructed Chen Xianzhi.

Qingqing and Ningshuang helped her up, and Prophet Chen also hurriedly checked her wound, and while bandaging her, he said, "Princess, don't worry, she is only weaker after being cut because she was holding the bead too hard. "

Holding the beads too hard?
Zongzheng Xiaoting frowned, thinking about Xiaohong's face when she replied just now, she felt that it would not be so simple.

"Physician Chen, the third person who died on the scene without a whole body really puzzled me. According to Gong Yunfei's plan, it was just to kill me, and I was promoted by Gongsun Zi." How could she have known in advance and made this arrangement? Could it be that it was because someone accidentally hit and hurt Gong Yunluo, and she killed this person to frame him? Just because Gongsun Zixing saved this palace?" Zongzheng Xiaoting always felt that something was wrong when he analyzed it. Although this logic makes sense, he still felt that it was not satisfactory.

"Yunfei's martial arts are not high enough to break into Yushi Villa!" Prophet Chen shook his head and denied Zongzheng Xiaoting's guess, only to hear him say, "I am going to investigate this matter according to the princess's order. , also made a special trip, the distance from the inn to Yushi Villa, but Xiaguan was discovered just as he approached Yushi Villa. Yunfei's martial arts is not as good as Xiaguan, and the person who went to Yushi Villa is definitely not It will be her."

"If that's the case, who could it be?" Zongzheng Xiaoting rubbed his chin, and Xiaohong, who was beside him, woke up faintly. After hearing the conversation between Prophet Chen and Zongzheng Xiaoting, she said in a low voice, " Princess...that person is my brother!"

Xiaohong's words were like a thunderclap, which made Zongzheng Xiaoting and Chen Xianzhi stunned.

"Xiaohong, who are you talking about?" Zongzheng Xiaoting looked at Xiaohong with confusion.

"My servant thinks that the corpse must be my brother, and the person the princess said about breaking into the villa at night and trying to kill the princess is probably my brother!" Xiaohong's face was still pale, but as she spoke, her tears Can't help but slip.

Seeing her mournful appearance, Zongzheng Xiaoting could only pat her hand comfortingly, but continued to ask despite her sorrow, "Xiaohong, why did I become more and more confused the more I heard your words, Don't you only have your elderly mother at home?"

"Yes!" Xiaohong nodded and said, "Originally, we were separated from my brother for many years due to natural disasters, but we have been waiting for him at home. We always think that if he is still alive, he will definitely come back. Therefore, in order to build a house in that place again, he sold himself to the palace. However, we waited for many years, but he did not come back, so gradually we all assumed that he was dead."

When mentioning the past, Xiaohong burst into tears.

"However, a few days ago, my brother came back. He didn't tell us specifically what happened to him, but we did know that he fell in love with a woman. Because of her, my brother had to hide in the dark to protect him." She. Because when he came back, he already knew that we were doing well. But, he said, the woman he loved had a miserable life. So he begged my mother and me to forgive him, and we didn't blame him. "Xiaohong sniffed and couldn't help shaking her head, "If I knew what Sister Qingqing said about Miss Liucheng, I would definitely prevent him from leaving."
