Chapter 257: Catch the Murderer
"I forgive you for not being guilty, let's be honest." Emperor Beiliang's attitude towards Qin Shudan was completely different from that of Wan Xin. He was full of trust from the bottom of his heart for an imperial physician who had rescued himself.
"I am obeying the wise and wise. Your Majesty was sick at the beginning, not because he was sick, but because he was poisoned."
"What?" Emperor Beiliang exclaimed, "I am poisoned? Why haven't I heard from my dear friend?"
"I am only responsible for helping Your Majesty, but I did not say much about other matters. Moreover, this matter is complicated, and I did not tell you the truth for a while. I hope Your Majesty will atone for the sake of this matter." Qin Shudan was very clear about this matter. If he said it, it could even be considered a serious crime of deceiving the emperor. If he could do so, he would not hesitate to say it for the rest of his life, but now because of Wan Xin's request, even if he was sentenced to death by the angry Emperor of Beiliang, he would do whatever he could.
"You..." Emperor Beiliang's lips moved and he smiled bitterly, "Forget it, I have seen this kind of thing many times since I was a child. Since I have said that I have forgiven you for not guilty, I will not blame you. You didn't want to talk about it at the beginning, why did you tell me it now?"
"Because, now I have found the poisoned person." Wan Xin looked at Concubine Zhang Shu and said softly.
Concubine Zhang was instantly panicked, "Look at what I do? Do you suspect that it was done by me?"
"Empress Shufei, the folk girl said nothing, why are you so anxious?" Wan Xin knew that the emperors have been very suspicious since ancient times, and just now, Concubine Zhang's every move happened to push herself to the forefront.
"Your Majesty, don't listen to this witch talk nonsense. I did nothing." Concubine Zhang Shu hurriedly begged Emperor Beiliang. She had tried all her tricks now, but Emperor Beiliang was not moved by it.
"You keep saying, what the hell is going on?"
When Wan Xin said everything, Concubine Zhang had already collapsed on the ground and muttered to herself, "I'm wronged."
Wan Xin looked at Concubine Zhang who still refused to confess his guilt. "If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can go to the Imperial Pharmacy to check the records and see how much Ma Qianzi and Chishao had received by Concubine Shu."
Emperor Beiliang immediately asked Mr. Lu to go to the imperial pharmacy to collect the records. He looked at Zhang Shufei, who was slumped on the ground in a cold manner, without saying a word, but his cold and ruthless eyes had already revealed everything.
When the old man Lu came back, Emperor Beiliang looked through the records and his face changed drastically. He threw the account book of the drug collection record on Zhang Shufei's face, "What else do you have to say now?"
Concubine Zhang had no image at this time, "Your Majesty, I don't know, I don't know, it was her, she wronged me. Your Majesty, don't believe her, you believe me, you forgive me for the sake of the second prince."
As I happened to say this, the second prince's voice came from outside, "Mother, are you looking for me?"
After the second prince entered the door, he was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him, "My son is paying homage to his father, mother, mother, mother, what's wrong with you?"
After saying that, he wanted to reach out and help Concubine Zhang. Concubine Zhang grabbed the second prince's arm, "What are you doing?"
The second prince looked at Zhang Shufei in surprise, "Isn't it that Mother, you, Xuan Erchen, entered the palace? Isn't it?"
Concubine Zhang shook her head, and then she understood what was going on. She looked at Wan Xin fiercely, "It's you, it's you who pretended to be my name and let the second prince enter the palace. It must be you."
Wan Xin was ridiculous and terrified, "Empress Shu Concubine, Wan Xin was just using the palace to recuperate from the wounded. What rights and abilities do you have to let the second prince enter the palace?"
Concubine Zhang also knew that Wan Xin did not have the right or ability to mobilize the eunuchs around her, but who was able to do all this? A woman's face appeared in Concubine Zhang's mind with a hazy face. She laughed and said, "I understand, it turns out it's her, it's amazing."
Emperor Beiliang looked at Concubine Zhang Shu and the second prince below with annoyed look on his face. The second prince still said to Emperor Beiliang without understanding, "Father, no matter what mistakes the mother's mother made, I hope that the father will spare her mother for the sake of the son's minister."
"Shush up!" Concubine Zhang shouted hysterically. She had not felt despair yet, but now the real despair spread. If the second prince didn't say anything, there would be an uninformed explanation. Now he actually spoke up and pleaded for her. The suspicious Emperor of Beiliang must have doubted whether the second prince was also involved.
As expected, Emperor Beiliang's expression became even more serious, "Your Majesty, it was my Duzi who did it alone, and it has nothing to do with the second prince. If you want to blame me, blame me."
"Mother, what are you talking about? What did you do to make your father so angry?" The second prince is still confused, but he vaguely felt that this matter must be a big deal.
"Second Prince." Lu Gong said openly, "You should not beg for Concubine Shu, this is a major event to murder the emperor."
"What?" The second prince couldn't believe his ears. His weak mother didn't dare to speak loudly. She had been cautious for so many years. How could she have the courage to murder the emperor? Something must have been wrong. "It's impossible, it must have been wrong! Father, Mother, you don't know who she is with you for so many years?"
Emperor Beiliang snorted coldly, "It was because of her appearance for so many years that he was blinded by her appearance. I didn't expect that he was such a vicious woman with a vicious heart."
"Mother, tell your father quickly, you don't know, you have never done it. Tell me quickly." The second prince shook Concubine Zhang Shu's arm, hoping that she would defend herself quickly. At this time, Concubine Zhang Shu was like a dilapidated puppet, slumped on the ground.
"It's too late, everything is too late. My prince..." Concubine Zhang murmured to herself. She didn't believe that she had lost like this, and she was defeated so much. How could she have clearly gained the upper hand. After so many years of tolerance and concessions, she was just a final attempt, so why did she fail like this?
"No, it's impossible. Father, there must be something misunderstanding. I believe that the mother will not do such a traitor. Father, you must find out clearly and give your mother a fair one. Don't listen to the slander of sluts." The second prince glanced at Wan Xin viciously, and even Qin Shudan on the side couldn't help trembling. The second prince's eyes were full of murderous aura, but Wan Xin did not move at all, and still maintained a soft smile.
"Stop it, I have always wondered why you did it. It turns out that there is such a bold person behind you to support you! What I have been unable to understand has finally figured out!" The Emperor of Beiliang has combined the previous second prince's party for personal gain with the current poisoning. All the purpose is for the dragon throne of the Nine Five Lord. "Before, I have given you a chance to reflect and repent. Who knew that you and your mother did not repent, and they became even more powerful and wanted to murder me."
The second prince suddenly laughed and said, "Father, you are so sure that we did everything. There was no investigation, so he gave me and my mother a false charge."
