214 Zhou Guiren's death, suspicion rises(1/2)
At this moment, Feng Zhishui suddenly walked in.
The reason why it was suddenly because she came in through a door on the side of the hall. She pushed the door open heavily.
The three of them looked at her almost at the same time, all of whom were stunned.
"Gui Ren Feng, what are you going to do when you are shocked?" Liao Zhuobi was quite dissatisfied. He was frightened by Gui Ren Deng, and was frightened by Poison Tea. Now, he is not yet stable, and he is being frightened by this.
He trembled with a bang. "Who are you talking about trying to scare to death? Can't you walk in properly?"
Feng Zhishui turned her face and glared at her: "Do you still need to explain why I come in?"
"Stop." Deng Sui suddenly realized that the little maid on the side was about to leave, and shouted coldly.
This voice scared Liao Zhuobi again. "What are you doing?"
Deng Sui quickly walked to the door and stopped the little girls who wanted to sneak away. "The tea sent in was poisonous and passed by the hands of two of you girls. This matter must be investigated by His Majesty himself.
But it’s up. Before that, don’t think about leaving here.”
After hearing what Guiren Deng said, Yao Jiaer also realized something was wrong. "Why did I see these girls? Which palace did you serve in the past? Why are you accused of serving here today?"
Those girls lowered their heads and didn't say much, and all of them had panic expressions on their faces.
Just looking at their pitiful appearance, it makes people feel distressed, and maybe they were wrongly blamed.
But this made Deng Sui even more strange.
"You can't even tell where you come from? Then what's going on with these two cups of tea?"
His eyes fell on the face of the maid who was pouring tea for him, and Deng Sui frowned and glanced at her: "It's you, you say."
"When I say that to Guiren Deng, I have been assigned to serve him recently. Because Meiren Liu woke up, her body gradually recovered. There were not many people serving him in Xuanming Palace, so I assigned to wait." The girl Hong
With eyes on: "I did not poison the noble man's tea, but just brought a cup of lotus heart tea according to the noble man's instructions. I really didn't know about the rest of the matter, so I would like to ask the noble man to spare my life."
She cried while saying that, and knelt in front of Deng Sui with grievance: "Good man, please spare me, I really didn't poison me. This is a death sentence for the whole family. Even if I have great courage, I will not dare to do so.
You spare me!"
The more she spoke, the more sad she felt, and tears fell down.
The other girls also started crying.
"What's your name?" Deng Sui asked with a frown.
"I Qiaozhi." The girl wiped her tears: "I really didn't poison me."
"Don't worry, this noble person who was not what you were, wouldn't be wronged. But Qiaozhi, how many days have you been to Xuanming Palace?"
"It's only been more than ten days for Guiren Deng to say that." Qiaozhi didn't understand why Guiren Deng asked so clearly.
"For more than ten days, it's not long, it's not short." Deng Sui curled the corners of his lips and smiled very beautifully: "You've been here for more than ten days, but you don't even know that Meiren Liu doesn't like drinking tea."
? Especially hate Lianxin Tea. I was curious. When she took medicine in her illness, the most taboo thing was antidote tea and mung beans. Why would these things be prepared in Xuanming Palace?"
Qiaozhi shook her head quickly: "I don't know. I also went to the tea room as I told me, and I prepared these teas in it. The noble man called for Lianxin tea, so I had to make it for you."
"Is that true!" Deng Sui turned his eyes: "Come."
There are naturally guards outside.
"Go to the tea room and present all the tea leaves, including the hot water on the stove and all the cups and utensils. I will check it myself when His Majesty comes back later." Deng Sui was tense, without a smile on his face. If he wanted to
If you kill her, there may be others. But not only do you want to kill her, but even Liao will not let her go. Except for the queen, there will definitely be no one else.
Thinking of this, Deng Sui's heart sank.
"You guys are kneeling here. Once the matter is found out, I will naturally report to your Majesty forgiving you."
"Thank you, Guiren Deng." Qiaozhi wiped her tears and leaned on the ground to kowtow to thank her.
The other maids thanked me in this way.
Feng Zhishui smiled faintly: "No matter when, Guiren Deng is Guiren Deng."
"What is this saying, "Guru Deng is not Guiren Deng, what else can he be?" Liao Zhuobi looked at Deng Sui contemptuously, with only resentment in his eyebrows: "There are either the queen or Guiren Deng in this harem. So no matter how Deng humiliates others,
It doesn’t matter. This ability alone can’t be learned even if you or I.”
"Music words are easy to cause trouble." Feng Zhishui couldn't help sighing: "I am humble, and I dare not disturb these things. If you want to say it, just say it, and don't use me as a guise."
"You are timid." Liao Zhuobi's eyes rolled, and then she realized something was wrong. "No, what's the matter? You haven't returned to me yet. Where did you go, and why were you surprised?
I suddenly kicked in the door? And I didn't go to the main door and the side door... As far as I know, the Queen is not graceful, you follow the Queen to Hehuan Palace. What's the elusive song about you?
Could it be that you secretly hid in the dark and poisoned us. When you saw the plan failed, you hurried back and pretended to be innocent again?"
"What are you messing with?" Feng Zhishui looked angry: "I felt uncomfortable just now, so I went out from the side door to make it convenient. It's not a glorious thing, do you have to tell you? Is it a suspicion that I walked away?
?There are so many people in the harem who are not here, why don’t you doubt them? It’s simply inexplicable.”
Yao Jiaer was also surprised, and she didn't keep the door in her mouth. "No, if it weren't for the sharp eyes of Guiren Deng just now, these girls would have left without knowing it. Coincidentally, Guiren Feng came in at that time and brought us
All his eyes were attracted. Concubine Feng, are you doing it with intention or not?”
"I really can't understand what you are talking about!" Feng Zhishui was so angry that her face turned pale: "Why is it a sin to feel uncomfortable in her stomach? It's all because the buns sent by the imperial kitchen were not fresh, and I was angry.
, I didn't pay attention to your feet, can't you be more powerful? I think you're fighting hard and your eyes are red! As for it? You blame others for everything!"
"Hmph." Liao Zhuobi glanced at the door of the hall, just smiled coldly and stopped talking.
Soon, the emperor and empress returned to Xuanming Palace.
"It's really lively." Yin Lingyue saw the girl kneeling all over the ground, and guessed that something happened here again. "What's going on?"
Deng Sui stepped forward and bowed to him, "Report to Your Majesty, Empress, I was thirsty and Gui Ren Liao, so I ordered my maids to serve hot tea. I didn't expect that the tea would be poisonous. And these maids
It was claimed that the poisoning had nothing to do with them, so I left everyone in the hall and waited for questions."
Liu Zhao narrowed his eyes: "There is really no peace for a moment."
After thinking a little, Liu Zhao said, "Wu Leng, I will leave this matter to you to investigate."
Deng Sui hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have ordered people to present all the utensils and tea leaves in the tea room and place them in the hall. You can let Wuling personally inspect it."
"Well." Liu Zhao nodded in agreement.
Wuling received the order and took the maids and retreated.
At this time, Deng Sui was able to ask: "Your Majesty, Sister Zhou is..."
"It's definitely a suicide." Liu Zhao couldn't help but sigh regretfully.
"Hang suicide?" Deng Sui still couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty, my sister is the quietest, but since she has nothing to ask for, how could she not think about it and go to a dead end? My sister has a child, so she wouldn't be so confused for the sake of her child.
”
When Wuling said that Concubine Zhou hanged herself, Deng Sui was still a little unbelievable. She even guessed that Zhou Yunji was just like her, but she just had a scene. But when these words came out of Liu Zhao's mouth, she realized that
Everything has become a fact, and the feeling is like a heart thrown into a brazier and the pain is so painful that the whole person dies.
"Your Majesty, sister..."
"Guy Deng, please take a look at this first!" Yin Lingyue frowned and glanced at Mo Yu behind her.
Mo Yu quickly presented something.
This was an embroidered sachet made by Deng Sui while idle all day long. He asked Toran to send a few more to Zhou Guiren.
"This is what I gave to my sister." Deng Sui felt very uncomfortable while pinching the sachet. "I didn't expect that my sister would take a step first."
"Come over and take a look." Yin Lingyue said a little unbearable.
Deng Sui then turned over the sachet and saw several lines of dense small characters. These words immediately made her tremble in shock.
"Let me see it too." Liao Zhuobi couldn't help but feel happy when she saw Deng Sui's face was not good. She walked over and took the sachet from Deng Sui. "Oh, this is the last writing before her death. Zhou Guiren was killed.
Oh, Concubine Deng, it clearly states that Concubine Zhou accidentally learned your secret, but was forced to go to the forefront of her, so she would come up with this bad strategy. Please forgive her faults and not kill her mother.
You should treat the eldest princess kindly at home... You are so cruel, and you can do it even if you like your sisters!"
"Where is a word mentioned on it?" Deng Sui frowned and looked at her: "Why do you have to miss it?"
"How could it be that it's not you?" Liao Zhuobi smiled coldly: "Didn't Zhou Guiren say the original words? Since he was like a sister in the past, please ask his sister to remember this love and don't take his anger on Baoer. In this harem,
I'm afraid that you will be the only one who can make Zhou Guiren a sister. Besides, you gave this sachet to her! You have to be so obvious that you will recognize it? Zhou Guiren is not a fool. If she writes down your name brightly,
You can't hate her! Then is her daughter still alive?"
"Enough!" Yin Lingyue immediately interrupted Liao Zhuobi's words as soon as she noticed that the emperor's face had changed color. "Don't speculate on the fact that it is false to guess that they are sisters in the harem. Isn't the eldest princess good? Isn't this palace also believe it either?
If you resent your sisters who are your concubines, you dare to take cruel measures against the dragon seeds. Furthermore, Your Majesty treats you equally and never treats any of you badly. Such cruel methods sound outrageous. I will not allow you to be with me.
You shouldn't have such thoughts when you talk nonsense."
"I will follow the teachings of the Empress." The four nobles bowed together and responded.
Taking a deep breath, Liao Zhuobi said again: "Since Zhou Guiren hangs himself, he found such a thing again in the palace, that is, Deng Guiren is indeed suspected of killing Zhou Guiren in order to keep his secret. His Majesty is to kill him.
I also learned about this incident by chance, and also knew that the garrison had secretly helped Deng Guiren more than once. The first time was to send Deng Guiren out of the palace to rescue the emperor, and the second time was to take risks in the imperial tomb.
He gave medicine at that time, so that Guiren Deng pretended to die and escaped the disaster."
Deng Sui was shocked immediately.
