Later, they spent some time to find out that the young eunuch in the imperial concubine's palace was going to the imperial garden to meet a fellow countryman of hers. They had made an appointment before.

The eldest maid Yinhuan in Cui Jieyu's palace went to help Cui Jieyu pick flowers in the imperial garden. Only Qu Cairen went to the imperial garden with the eldest maid Yinhuan for no purpose.

And considering that the death of Qu Cairen's previous child was related to the second princess, Ming Jieyu, it would make sense if Qu Cairen had a grudge against the second princess and poisoned the second princess.

Although Yuan En and Lian Yongwang felt that the maid named Zijin next to Qu Cairen was the most suspicious among the three, but just in case, Yuan En and Lian Yongwang still interrogated all three of them.

The statements made by the young eunuch in the imperial concubine's palace and the eldest palace maid in Cui Jieyu's palace were the same as what Yuan En and the others found, and there was no trace of lying. However, the palace maid named Zijin who was Qu Cairen's palace maid was a bit confused during the interrogation.

The preface does not match the postscript.

Yuan En and the others used different questioning methods and asked the questions several times out of order. The palace maid was fine at first, but after asking, her answer was completely different from the previous answer.

Unlike the other two people, although the answers they gave after asking several times were not exactly the same, they were still roughly the same.

In this way, it is obvious who poisoned the second princess's perilla drink.

However, Yuan En and Lian Yongwang sent the testimonies of the overnight interrogation to the emperor, but to their surprise, the emperor allowed them to continue investigating.

Lian Yongwang looked away from the gray sky, looked at Yuan En and said: "It's not that the emperor doesn't believe that Qu Cairen did this, but he feels that Qu Cairen's identity and status should not be able to do this.

"

Qu Cairen has been in the palace for less than a year, and his family background is very ordinary. Although this matter sounds simple, it is not easy to do it.

Not to mention where Qu Cairen knew the whereabouts of the second princess, how did he know that the perilla drink prepared by the little palace maid was for the second princess, and how did he let the little palace maid put down the perilla drink and go to the hut in the middle of the journey?

Where did Qu Cairen get the heartbroken grass poison in Perilla Drink?

"Let's go, let's go find Qu Cairen and ask her where she got the poison of Brokenheart Grass?" Lian Yongwang sighed faintly. It seems that the emperor is not going to let it go easily this time and wants to investigate.

It’s clear.

Since the emperor has such thoughts, they can only continue to investigate, hoping not to involve too many people.

Ever since Ri Jin was called away yesterday, Qu Cairen knew that the matter of poisoning the second princess was probably exposed. When Lian Yongwang came with the intention of placing her under house arrest, Qu Cairen was not actually too surprised or afraid.

, on the contrary, there is a sense of relief that the hanging knife has finally fallen.

When Lian Yongwang asked her why she wanted to poison the second princess, Qu Cairen did not conceal her hatred for the second princess.

"If it weren't for her, how could my child have died right after birth?" Qu Cairen said with resentment: "If she hadn't suddenly rushed out to touch my belly that day, how could I have pushed her? It was obviously her.

It was my fault, but Ming Jieyu indiscriminately attributed all the faults to me."

"Ming Jieyu killed my child, but she herself was only demoted, and the second princess was not punished at all. Why should they?" Qu Cairen said and suddenly looked at Lian Yongwang with sharp eyes, "You

Say, should I avenge my child who died young?"

Lian Yongwang didn't say anything. From this point of view, Qu Cairen was indeed the victim, but even if she was the victim, she couldn't poison the second princess because of this?

Moreover, Qu Cairen lost her child and suffered a loss in this matter. Logically, the emperor should have compensated her and promoted her to a certain position, just like the An concubine back then, but the emperor did not do this. This is

Why?

Isn't it because Qu Cairen also has an unshirkable responsibility for the death of Qu Cairen's child?

If Qu Cairen hadn't been pregnant for more than eight months, but didn't know how to take good care of the fetus, and instead just took a personal palace maid to wander in the imperial garden, how could he have met the second princess, which ultimately led to her premature birth and the death of the child?

?

At that time, the emperor said that everyone was unsafe, and he was not talking about Ming Jieyu alone.

Even Yongwang didn't answer her, and Qu Cairen didn't care. She calmed down her emotions and continued with some regret: "It's a pity that bitch Ming Jieyu is confined in the palace, and it's hard for people around her to penetrate

, otherwise I will let her go underground together to apologize for my child who died young."

Lian Yongwang waited for Qu Cairen to finish speaking before asking again: "How did you know the whereabouts of the second princess?"

Qu Cairen said disdainfully: "Is it difficult to know the whereabouts of the second princess? I have always sent the eldest maid around me to keep an eye on the movements of the second princess and Ming Jieyu. I will naturally know where the second princess has gone."

"What about the poison?" Lian Yongwang continued to ask, "Where did you get the heartbroken grass poison?"

Qu Cai said: "The poison was also brought in by my eldest maid from outside the palace."

Lian Yongwang frowned even more as he listened to Qu Cairen's answer. Judging from Qu Cairen's words, although Qu Cairen herself admitted that she poisoned the second princess, Qu Cairen might have just been nervous during the process of poisoning the second princess.

When he opened his mouth, the person who contributed the most was always the maid named Zijin next to Qu Cairen.

How did a palace maid get such great abilities?

Could it be that the palace maid’s real master was not actually Qu Cai Ren? Or maybe the palace maid’s original master was also Qu Cai Ren, but was later bribed by someone else.

If this is the case, would it be possible that this little palace maid had "credit" for Qu Cai's visit to the Imperial Garden?

Also, when Qu Cairen poisoned the second princess, was it really Qu Cairen himself who wanted to poison the second princess, or was the palace maid named Zijin instigating it, which made Qu Cairen decide to poison the second princess?

A lot of speculations flashed through Lian Yongwang's mind. He was silent for a while, and after sorting out his thoughts, he asked again: "How did you think of poisoning the second princess?"

Qu Cairen may have thought that Lian Yongwang's question was too strange. She raised her head and stared at Lian Yongwang for several times before saying, "Isn't poisoning a common method used in the palace and the back house? I would think of giving Er

Is it weird for a princess to be poisoned?”

Lian Yongwang shook his head. "It's not surprising. I just think that the second princess gave your child a premature death. Based on your hatred for her, you should want to strangle her to death with your own hands or stab her with a knife instead of poisoning her. After all,
