Fortunate to know Qing peach noodles

Chapter 498

The officer quickly stepped forward and untied her.She couldn't make a sound, and said sadly: "My servant has been with my mother for many years. Once my mother leaves, my servant is afraid that there will be no one to take care of her. I beg you, please complete my servant and let my servant follow your mother..."

The palace people who are close to the concubines in the harem are all accompanied by their natal families into the palace, and they are as prosperous as their masters, so they are very loyal.

If something unexpected happened to his master, if these personal servants stayed in the palace, they might only be bullied by other palaces.

So after the concubine Ming's funeral was dealt with, these close and close palace people went to guard the mausoleum to be buried with them, which was very cruel.

Wen Shaoqing looked at her deeply and said, "Take him away."

The many palace people brought back were divided into two groups, one group was the palace people who were in charge of peripheral chores on weekdays, and the other was the close palace people who were in charge of the daily life of the concubine Ming.

There is a chief eunuch, two nuns and four maids in the palace.

And the one who was about to hang himself happened to be an aunt Ming Concubine trusted closest to her. She was about the same age as Concubine Ming, older than a court lady and younger than a nanny. She was married into the palace as a dowry back then.

Su Yu ordered Wen Shaoqing to interrogate the outer court servants one by one, and Su Yu himself would interrogate those who were in close service.

The third prince must be sitting there waiting for Wei Qing to be convicted and the Miao family to wither again. At this time, Su Yushe was involved in it, and he was undoubtedly obstructing it.Maybe Su Yu himself was facing considerable obstacles.

But there is no way, whether out of selfishness or being coerced, he must intervene.

In the past, the Chief Assistant, who was calm and gentle in the court and court, unexpectedly had a thunderous trick.

He is good at figuring out people's hearts, and he can tell whether someone's words are true or not.

Those internal servants are fine for the time being, and their confessions have been recorded in detail.But the aunt who was the most loyal to Concubine Ming and devoted herself to death was tortured by Su Yu until she was almost out of shape.

It's just that the wounds are all inside, and there is no trace of scars on the surface.

According to her confession, when Concubine Ming was in Jingyi Palace, she was overworked. Wei Qing helped her see a doctor, gave her acupuncture and medicine, and the poison occurred after returning home.

But the decoction taken by Concubine Ming is the same as the Anshen Decoction taken by Jingyi, so only the silver needle is the problem.

She insisted that Wei Qing poisoned Concubine Ming with a silver needle.

Although the servants brought in from outside the palace are all honored and loyal, sometimes there are exceptions.Not everyone can refuse other temptations.

Wei Qing was waiting for the results in prison. Like Su Yu, she believed that the problem was with this aunt.

If her silver needles would have been replaced during consultations with other concubines in the harem, and she had administered needles for other concubines, someone would have been poisoned by now.

And she obviously didn't give the concubine Ming the needle, but she was accused of concubine Ming getting poisoned after receiving the needle.

At that time, apart from the sleeping Jing Yi, there were only Wei Qing, Concubine Ming and this aunt beside her in the palace.

It must have been at that time that the aunt dropped the silver needle without anyone noticing it, and even inserted a poisonous needle into the pulse pillow.

And only she can get close to Concubine Ming's diet.

Wei Qing was careless, but he never expected that aunt would kill her master.

My aunt was on the verge of death after being tortured, but she died and couldn't die, and she was in pain.

When Su Yu came to interrogate her, he asked her calmly, but she still insisted that Wei Qing did it.

Su Yu asked her lightly: "When Imperial Physician Wei administered the needle to Concubine Ming, were you sure it was a silver needle?"

The aunt replied: "It's a silver needle..."

If it wasn't the silver needle, how did she discover and distinguish it?Why didn't you dismantle it then?
So she could only assume that it was a silver needle.

Su Yu asked again: "What unusual thing did you see about the silver needle?"

The aunt said: "This girl is extremely cunning, servant... the servant really didn't notice..."

Su Yu said: "The silver needle turns black when it is poisoned, you said you didn't notice it?"

The aunt was silent for a while, then started to cough, coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, and said weakly: "Even if it wasn't a silver needle, it must have been poisoned by her somewhere else! Poor Concubine Ming, she died in vain like this. The servant is so infatuated, but she has to suffer this kind of pain." Wait for the crime!"

Su Yu said: "Tell me about the poisons in other places, where else can Imperial Doctor Wei put poisons?"

"The medicine... must be the soup medicine..."

"The assistant has already found out that the decoction was boiled in Princess Jingyi's palace, and it was delivered directly to Concubine Ming without the hands of Imperial Physician Wei."

The aunt said in a daze: "There are other places, there must be other places that you have neglected..."

Su Yu said coldly: "Of course there are other places, that is, the concubine Ming got poisoned after she ate food after returning to the palace. You are in charge of the food of the empress, so you are naturally the most suspected. Don't panic, what is the truth? trial."

Unexpectedly, after Su Yu took over, things would soon turn around.

When Wei Qing saw Wen Shaoqing again, he asked him to investigate and find out who Concubine Ming had a problem with in the palace.

Wei Qing thought about it and thought that this might be the case of the crown prince and the harem battle being involved again.

But the result of Wen Shaoqing's investigation was that Concubine Ming was generous and kind in the palace, she never put on airs, let alone made enemies with anyone, and the concubines in the harem always respected her.

Later, my aunt held her last breath and wanted to see the emperor, as long as she met the emperor, she would recruit anything, and she still had the last words left by Concubine Ming.

Su Yu would not respond to her request at all, but the empress was in charge of the harem, paying attention to the progress of this matter, and then passed the news to the emperor.

The emperor indulged in the concubine Ming, and if the concubine Ming had a last word, of course he had to listen to it with his own ears.So he ordered his aunt to be brought up for his own trial.

The aunt took a deep breath, crawled to the emperor's feet, and relayed what Concubine Ming had said before she was alive. It was nothing more than the relationship between Concubine Ming and the emperor, which made the emperor quite moved.

Unexpectedly, later, the girl's voice changed, she suddenly grabbed the emperor's trouser legs and said sternly, "It was Wei Qing who killed Ming Concubine Empress. I beg your Majesty, please do it for..." As she spoke, the corners of her mouth began to bleed, and she couldn't speak well, "For your mother...to make the decision..."

The emperor was shocked, and it was too late to stop her, but she actually bit off her own tongue, and the blood kept flowing out.

The emperor quickly got up and stepped back, his expression unpredictable.

The Empress Emperor yelled angrily: "Shoufu, I ordered you to investigate this matter in detail, and this is how you investigated?! Check again!"

Originally, things had turned for the better, but they didn't expect this accident to happen again.

The reason why Su Yu didn't let the palace servants see the emperor was because she was afraid that she would make an extraordinary move and he wouldn't be able to respond in time.

When interrogating her earlier, she wanted to commit suicide several times, but she couldn't succeed in front of Su Yu.Well now, as soon as she was in front of the emperor and left those words, she quickly ended herself, making the situation more and more complicated now, which was very unfavorable to Wei Qing.
