Chapter 627 I don't know what to name it

Chapter 627 I don’t know what to name it.

“Let her rest here for a few days and go back when she wakes up. Bring here everything she needs.” said the queen.

Chi Su replied yes and thanked the Queen.

The imperial doctors did not dare to leave. They had to stay until everything was absolutely safe.

The emperor came out and everyone paid their respects to him.

The emperor looked at the kneeling Yang Yu Nu and said, "Yang, please stand up."

Yang Yu-nu hurriedly thanked the emperor and stood up carefully.

"If this matter has nothing to do with you, you have done a great deed." Qi Yixiu said, "I will not treat you unfairly."

"Your Majesty, I... your concubine thanks you very much. I do not seek to make any achievements... Your Majesty... it's too late to speak." Yang Yunu lowered her head.

Qi Yixiu ignored her.

"On the fourth day of the New Year, investigate thoroughly. Investigate thoroughly for me. No matter who it is, if they dare to do it, they should know the consequences." Qi Yixiu did not look angry.

But everyone knew how angry he was at that moment.

Concubine Jingxian...

Concubine Jingxian has been in the palace for more than ten years.

She has always been favored and is the biological mother of the Sixth Prince.

The daughter of the Shen family who has never done anything wrong.

Suddenly, I was almost poisoned to death.

How could the emperor not be angry? Empress Dowager Li had a bad feeling in her heart.

But she said nothing.

Search everyone present today, except the Queen, and no one should be left out.

The queen did not insist, but even if she herself was not searched, her servants were not spared.

The same is true for the Queen Mother.

The palace maid who served soup to Shen Chuliu was the first one to be found.

It was almost effortless for him to tell the name of Eunuch Jiao.

Eunuch Jiao, a man from the imperial kitchen.

Unfortunately, when he was found, the eunuch had committed suicide by taking poison. The poison he took was the Jiuchonghong that Shen Chuliu had used.

And that guard, with Concubine Li, Yang Yunv, and their maids, really had no way to hide.

So soon, Yu Chan took people to capture the man.

They are asked to recognize each one by one.

The guard knelt in front of the Chongzi Palace with a deathly pale face.

"Pang Xin?" Chusi was also surprised: "This is an old guard in the palace. He has been serving in Beigongyuan."

The Purple Palace and the theater are located behind Luming Lake and are very close to Beigong Garden.

Pang Xin was transferred here because he made a mistake a few years ago. I remember it was the fourth day of the Chinese New Year.

Pang Xin didn't say anything.

"Send him to the Internal Affairs Department." Qi Yixiu said indifferently.

“Your Majesty, please spare my life…” Pang Xin kowtowed.

"How is that possible?" Qi Yixiu said indifferently.

"Your Majesty, please spare my family. Your Majesty, I deserve to die." Pang Xin also knew that he was doomed, and asking for mercy was just a subconscious statement.

"Why don't you tell me?" Chusi asked.

"Yes...it's Empress Zhen Chongyi." Pang Xin said.

Zhen Chongyi's face had actually turned pale a while ago, but no one noticed.

Now, she had nowhere to hide.

Empress Dowager Li shuddered. Her bad premonition finally came true...

"Zhen Chongyi?" Qi Yixiu turned around and looked at Zhen Chongyi who was kneeling down.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent!" Zhen Chongyi said loudly.

"Let's send them to the Internal Criminal Department together." Qi Yixiu said.

"What? Your Majesty, Your Majesty! I am a concubine, Your Majesty..."

"Emperor." Empress Dowager Li stood up: "She is the imperial concubine after all."

"Mother. Yan'er is still here, but his mother's life or death is unknown." Qi Yixiu was very calm.

"I know, and I am not begging for mercy. If she had done this, I would have been the first to send her to death. But she is a concubine and the biological mother of the Ninth Prince. If she is sent to the Internal Criminal Department, how will the Ninth Prince live his life in the future?" said the Queen Mother.

"Then listen to your majesty. Zhen Chongyi should go to Beigong Garden first. You can't send her to the Internal Criminal Department. Then ask the people from the Internal Criminal Department to go to Beigong Garden." Qi Yixiu said calmly, even smiling: "Your majesty is worried today. You should go back and rest first."

Empress Dowager Li finally sighed and said, "I will leave first."

Never mind. If this idiot really did it, then he has to bear the consequences.

"No! No! Aunt, please save me, aunt!" Zhen Chongyi cried miserably.

"Grandmother!" the Ninth Prince called out.

Empress Dowager Li paused but did not stop and continued walking.

"Send the ninth prince back to Ruiqing Palace." The emperor waved his hand.

"Mother, mother, father..." the ninth prince called.

Qi Yixiu looked over and said, "Jue'er, I told you to go back."

The Ninth Prince paused, not daring to speak, tears all over his face, and was dragged away without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, you can't do this, you can't do this! Are you trying to force me to confess? Concubine Jingxian is your woman, isn't I? Your Majesty!" Zhen Chongyi cried.

"Don't worry, you are my cousin, how could I just ignore it and wrongly accuse you." Qi Yixiu said lightly.

"Go ahead. Try the others first. If everyone says it's her, then try her."

The people from the Internal Criminal Department agreed, feeling extremely miserable.

How can one interrogate a concubine...

The emperor is very angry.

Zhen Chongyi was dragged away crying and screaming.

All the concubines present were still frightened.

It was Shen Chuliu's time to take the medicine again, and he successfully vomited the dirty blood, which was obviously much less than last time.

The Internal Criminal Department wanted to ask the questions right away, but Pang Xin was so disheartened that he didn't dare to waste any time in answering.

Pang Xin is 39 years old. His eldest son died young and his second son is 18 years old this year.

He was looking to get married and fell in love with a girl, but the girl was not willing.

Either he can get a promotion or he can have a lot of money.

He only has this one son now, for his son...

Zhen Chongyi approached him once and he agreed.

What Zhen Chongyi promised was silver, and of course also an official position in the future.

He knew that Zhen Chongyi was anxious.

The emperor is about to appoint a crown prince, so she can't help but be anxious.

Originally, her son was very likely, but now his chances are getting worse every year.

She wanted to do something cruel and get rid of Concubine Jingxian first.

She felt that with Concubine Jingxian's death, the Sixth Prince had lost his support.

In the future, the emperor will favor other people, so how can he care about him? If you miss the opportunity to appoint a crown prince, you may miss it for the rest of your life.

What's more, once Concubine Jingxian died, there would inevitably be some chaos, and at that time she might be able to take advantage of the chaos to cause something bad to happen to the Sixth Prince.

You don't have to die, it's okay to be disabled or injured.

Unfortunately, the first step failed.

Shen Chuliu was not destined to die.

Even if Zhen Chongyi didn't say anything, her maid's mouth could be easily pried open.

Not only them, but also her brother and sister-in-law were involved in these things.

Otherwise, how could it be so easy to find out about Pang Xin? Some members of the Li family are now law-abiding, such as Li Jin, the father of the second prince's wife, but some are unwilling to do so, such as Li Jin's two younger brothers, Li Shou and Li Guang.

Soon, Li Shou and Li Guang were sent directly to prison.

The emperor had no intention of giving face to the Li family.

Duke Li knelt outside the palace, saying that he was unable to teach his son, and begged the emperor to strip him of his title of duke.

At this point, there is no need to torture Zhen Chongyi anymore.

In the Chongzi Palace, Shen Chuliu spat out the last mouthful of blood.

There's not much color left.

There will be an update tomorrow.
