Chapter 17 You underestimate the little princess



Tianbao doesn't know how to scratch, otherwise the arm wearing the peach kernel necklace would have been scratched by her long ago.

All the experienced doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau came to Lingxiao Palace, divided the work among themselves, and quickly came up with the results.

"Your Majesty, the little princess has been poisoned." The imperial physician wiped the sweat off his forehead. They acted as quickly as possible, but were still extremely nervous.

The tyrant hugged the crying little sweet baby, and his eyes became red again.

The babyish cry was like the floodgates in his eyes. As soon as she cried, his floodgates opened.

During the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he secretly wiped away several tears.

Hearing the imperial physician's words, he suddenly looked up and glared: "What kind of poison?"

"It's the juice secreted by a plant called oleander," the Imperial Physician said sheepishly, pointing to the wild peach pit that had been removed from the little princess' wrist. "Your Highness has discovered that this bracelet is stained with poison."

The emperor's eyes narrowed. Wasn't this a gift from Concubine Dong? And she put it on the little sweet baby right in front of him!

All his rationality had been eaten away by dogs, and he shouted in anger: "Come here, bring Concubine Dong to me!"

The imperial physicians quickly prepared a suitable external ointment. Not long after it was applied, the cool feeling finally suppressed the itchy itch on Tianbao's arm.

The imperial physician wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hesitated to speak.

Upon seeing this, the tyrant emperor immediately tensed his bones: "What else are you hiding from me?"

The Imperial Physician shook his head and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, the little princess is so young that she could easily suck her fingers. If she accidentally touches the poison and swallows it, then..."

"So what?" The foolish emperor was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out.

"Too much can be fatal... But this thing can also be used as medicine, so a small amount should be fine." Facing the tyrant emperor, the imperial physician did not dare to say anything too absolute.

The foolish emperor only heard the word "death".

Someone wants to kill his precious baby!

There was a fierce look in his eyes, and his thick eyebrows slanted into his temples as he frowned. The face of the incompetent ruler who was good at carpentry suddenly revealed a murderous look.

No matter how foolish an emperor is, he still has the mighty power of a dragon to kill and decide.

The imperial doctors were terrified and the entire Lingxiao Palace fell silent.

There was only the sound of the little sweet baby's crying gradually becoming smaller.

She opened her little mouth, revealing her tender red tongue, yawned delicately, and wanted to sleep.

I've been crying for so long, it's really tiring.

Before falling asleep, she pouted and thought, the palace is really dangerous.

The tyrant walked to the cradle and looked at the little sweet baby with fear. His long eyelashes were wet with tears, becoming even darker and more shiny, sticking together in small clumps. The baby in his sleep pouted his little mouth and moved it, making a sucking motion.

The innocent and beautiful scene made the tyrant emperor feel so distressed that he shed two lines of tears in public.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Dong is here." Zhang Fujin lowered his voice and reported quietly.

The emperor pointed at the rocking bed and ordered Zhang Fujin to guard it personally: "Don't leave for a moment!"

After he said that, he looked at Tianbao twice again, and then walked out of the inner hall with a bold move.

A row of people were already kneeling outside the Lingxiao Palace. They included everyone who had been with Tianbao when she got into trouble, including Zhao Cairen and Yaer. Zhao Cairen's eyes were swollen from crying, and she cried as much out of heartache as Tianbao had cried.

Concubine Dong walked in front of them, raised her chin proudly, and did not kneel.

When the tyrant emperor saw Concubine Dong like this when he went out, he was furious.

I used to think she was unique and had a strong personality, but now she seems to be an unrepentant and shameless person!

snort!

The emperor ordered someone to bring the bunch of wild peach pits and the tray, and then smashed them on Concubine Dong's face: "What else do you have to say?"

The corner of the tray hit Concubine Dong's eyebrow, breaking the skin. Blood immediately flowed out and slid down from the corner of her eye to the corner of her mouth.

Concubine Dong licked the corner of her lips, her red lips looked beautiful and charming.

The cold white skin is stunningly set off by this touch of red.

Concubine Dong sneered, "I've been in the palace for over six years. Your Majesty, don't you know what kind of person I am? What grudge do I have against Little Sweetie that I would want to harm a little girl like her? If I really wanted to poison her, would I use such a foolish method to expose myself? She's been wearing the peach kernel necklace for several days, so why did it happen only today? This is such an obvious accusation. If Your Majesty doesn't investigate thoroughly, Little Sweetie will remain in danger."

She rolled her eyes at the tyrant and snorted in her heart: You are really like an old sow playing chess - look at your stupid brain!

The last sentence awakened the foolish emperor.

Looking at Concubine Dong again, she was upright and fearless, and his sinister eyes swept over the row of people kneeling on the ground one by one.

In a moment, the tyrant emperor issued an order: "Take him away for private interrogation! Those who expose the truth will be rewarded! Those who conceal the truth will be found and their entire family will be executed!"

Yaer trembled in fear. Kill all nine clans?!

In addition to Concubine Dong, Concubine Zhao was also dragged away. She did not resist at all except crying.

Concubine Dong was so disappointed: "Your Majesty! If Concubine Zhao gets hurt, Tianbao will go hungry!"

This kind of interrogation is like lynching.

The emperor's face was as cold as frost. He glanced at Zhao Cairen and said, "Drag her away for trial. No torture is allowed."

Concubine Dong breathed a sigh of relief, but when she accidentally glanced at Yaer, she couldn't help but frown.

After Zhiqiu went to Xuehan Palace, she questioned Zhiqiu about every aspect of the matter. Yaer and that Nanny Sun who wanted to go to Xuehan Palace to take care of Xiaojiu, were lazy and flattering Concubine Shu all day long. They were not good people at first glance...

The little sweet baby slept very soundly.

In the dream, the foolish emperor and the talented lady Zhao were chatting and laughing, and were in love with each other. Tianbao had grown up and could run, calling his father the emperor and his mother the concubine all the time, and was extremely happy.

"Tianbao is drooling." In the dream, Zhao Cairen gently took out a handkerchief and helped her wipe her saliva.

But why does my face feel itchy?

I wiped the saliva several times.

"A-choo!" Tianbao opened her blurry eyes and saw a handsome boy standing beside her. The one who helped her wipe her saliva was the fifth prince.

Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with tears, and he spoke with a thick nasal voice. It was obvious that he had been crying for a while. "Little princess, wake up! Did you have a nightmare? You kept talking in your sleep."

The one with handsome eyebrows and eyes is the third prince, six years old.

He glanced at Xiao Wu coldly: "Idiot, how can you laugh when you have a nightmare? The little princess is obviously having a sweet dream."

"Wow... the little princess is so adorable. She is still dreaming sweet dreams even when she is in trouble. We must protect her!" Xiao Wu cried so hard that his tears and snot were streaming. He picked up a handkerchief and blew his nose hard.

Well……

Tianbao frowned in disgust.

Fifth brother actually used this handkerchief to wipe her saliva?

All the palace maids and eunuchs in Lingxiao Palace were dragged away for interrogation. Now only Zhang Fujin and Xiao Qianzi are left to look after Tianbao. The foolish emperor only trusts these two at the moment.

"Tianbao, do you know who harmed you?" The third prince didn't like to laugh and spoke coldly, just like Concubine Dong.

He didn't have to go to school today, and since Concubine Dong happened to be in trouble, he came here under the pretext of visiting Tianbao.

"Ahhh!" Hmm!

Tianbao tried hard to nod, but her little head kept moving around uncontrollably, so she had to blink hard a few times.

The Third Prince frowned and tilted his head to look at Xiao Wu: "It seems that the Imperial Sister knows who the murderer is."

Zhang Fujin smiled helplessly: "Third Prince, the princess is so young, how can she understand what you are saying?"

The Third Prince looked at him coldly and snorted in dissatisfaction, "Then you underestimate the little princess. If you don't believe me, ask her to point it out!"

o(︶︿︶)o

When the tyrant king came in, he happened to hear these words, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The people who were dragged away did not get any useful information from the interrogation, but two of them died from the torture.

"My sweet baby is extremely smart. Zhang Fujin, take those people out of the palace and let my sweet baby identify them!"
