Chapter 380 It's My Poison

It has been more than half a day, if Jiang Yi resorted to means, it would not be difficult to find out the result!
Jiang Yi looked at him with a gloomy expression and didn't speak.

The emperor coughed.

Chu Jingxian knew that his father was warning him not to lose his manners in front of the palace, so he saluted the emperor and said, "Father, you summoned your servants, did Commander Jiang find out the truth of the matter? Who is going to kill my mother and concubine? "

The emperor didn't answer, but said in a pleasant voice: "Are you terrified by what happened today?"

Chu Jingxian's eyes were slightly red, and he said: "Father, the mother and the concubine have always treated the son and minister as if they were their own, and the son and the minister also respect and love the mother and the concubine. Now that the mother and the concubine have encountered such an innocent disaster because of the son and the minister, the son can't bear it!"

The emperor glanced at him and said: "Since that's the case, do you still dare to bring food from outside the palace into the palace?"

Chu Jingxian lowered his head: "Don't dare!"

He had eaten delicious food before, and if he thought it was good, he would bring a portion to Concubine De. Nothing happened, but this time, something went wrong.

"The ones you can bring into the palace must be the ones you think are good! You said that your friend cooked them, so you didn't buy them from a snack shop in an outside restaurant?"

Chu Jingxian said in a low voice, "Yes!"

"Who is that friend of yours?"

Chu Jingxian raised his head, not quite understanding why the emperor asked this question.

The emperor said indifferently: "Is it the girl from the Pei family?"

Chu Jingxian was startled again, the Pei family?

The emperor's voice seemed to come from a dark place: "You were in the mansion, and you were called into the mansion by the girl's maid of the Pei family, stayed for half an hour, and then brought the food box into the palace, am I right?"

Chu Jingxian's eyes widened. His father sent someone to investigate him?
Why did the emperor want to investigate him?
Before he could figure it out, the majestic voice of the emperor sounded: "Jiang Yi, Mu Qingyu, the granddaughter of the Pei family, murdered the imperial concubine under the guise of eating food, and she deserves to be punished! You lead someone to arrest him, and send him to Jing Zhaoyin. Strictly check the domain!"

Chu Jingxian exclaimed in surprise, "Father!"

No, he has already clearly said that there is no problem when food is brought into the palace, the problem is the big maid who hides poison in her teeth.

But now the emperor avoided all the details and directly put this matter on Mu Qingyu's head.

why?
Jiang Yi said: "Yes!"

Chu Jingxian said anxiously: "Father, I am very sure that the poison was not given by Mu Qingyu. When I brought it into the palace, there was no poison in the food I ate! It was tampered with in the palace of my mother and concubine!"

The emperor glanced at him lightly, and said, "Lao Qi, are you questioning my decision?"

Chu Jingxian's eyes were about to burst into tears. He never expected that what he was used to doing today would not only poison his mother and concubine to the point of death, but also dragged Mu Qingyu into the water.

He was full of remorse, and he was even more terrified of what happened in front of him.

He looked at Jiang Yi suddenly.

Jiang Yi made eye contact with him, but quickly averted his eyes, and strode out of the hall, ready to arrest someone.

Chu Jingxian knelt down suddenly, and said, "Think twice, Father, Mu Qingyu is an innocent person, she should not take responsibility for this matter! She has never done anything, and she has done nothing wrong! Father cannot take She asked the crime. If the emperor wants to arrest her, it is better to arrest the minister!"

"Presumptuous!" The emperor shouted, "Mu Qingyu is innocent?"

He sneered: "She made the food with her own hands, and you brought it to the palace with your own hands. She didn't poison Concubine De, could it be you?"

Under the emperor's cold eyes, Chu Jingxian suddenly understood!
Concubine De was poisoned, someone must take the responsibility, if you find out about the palace lady who hides poison in her teeth, there must be someone behind the scenes.

Commander Jiang has found out who is behind the scenes?

So he immediately reported to his father.

But the emperor didn't want to punish that person, so he wanted to find someone to take the place of the dead ghost.Mu Qingyu, who cooks food, became his best candidate.Even if she is completely innocent, even if she doesn't know.

But this does not prevent the father from using her to calm things down.

After all, she is just a civilian girl.

After her death, Mu Mingyuan had severed ties with her.

King Liang has abandoned her, and she is no longer Princess Liang.

And Pei's family, the only family who loves her so much, can't even inherit the title, so what kind of help and protection can they provide her?
Therefore, Mu Qingyu, who has no power, power and no protection, deserves to die.

Why is this happening?

Chu Jingxian suddenly raised his head and said, "Father, who is the real culprit behind the scenes?"

The emperor said coldly: "I have already said that Mu Qingyu, the granddaughter of the Pei family, murdered the imperial concubine under the guise of eating, and she should be punished for the crime!"

"But father is clear in his heart that the truth of the matter is not like this!"

"presumptuous!"

"The real person behind the scenes, my father doesn't want to touch him! Is it the eldest brother, the fourth brother, or the fifth brother? Or, is it the empress or Ning Guifei?"

"Presumptuous!" The emperor was furious: "Chu Jingxian, who gave you the courage to be so presumptuous in front of me? Moreover, you dare to use such malice to speculate on your imperial brother and your mother?"

The emperor's eyes were full of murderous intent, but Chu Jingxian straightened up stubbornly. He knelt down and said, "Father knows that Mu Qingyu is innocent, but wants to use her to settle this matter. My son only speculated a few words, but father felt that Mu Qingyu was innocent." Is it unbearable? But what my father wants is the lives of innocent people! My father is the lord of Dongxia, and all the people of Dongxia are your people, how can you treat one like another like that?"

The emperor shouted: "I say, do you dare not believe it?"

Chu Jingxian argued with reason: "Father, I don't know the political situation, I don't know the balance, and I don't know how to weigh the pros and cons! I only know that the real murderer can't go free, and the innocent can't be wronged!"

The emperor sternly said: "How can the real murderer go free, and how can the innocent be wronged? You don't understand the court situation, you don't understand balance, you don't understand the balance of pros and cons, so shut up!"

Chu Jingxian raised his eyes and said, "Father, the blood of innocent people can't erase the grievances suffered by the mother and concubine; even Tian's grievances can't cover up the real truth!"

The emperor laughed angrily, but the murderous look in his eyes became stronger, he said in a deep voice: "I said, Mu Qingyu murdered the imperial concubine!"

The way Chu Jingxian looked at the emperor was the way the superior looked down on the world, the way everyone else was an ant and could fiddle with his fate, the way that forced him to submit.

He knew that he couldn't change anything.

Facing the murderous look in the emperor's eyes, he said dumbly: "Father is wrong, Mu Qingyu didn't murder mother and concubine, it was my son, it was son who poisoned mother and concubine! It has nothing to do with others!"

The emperor's eyes were fixed, and he sternly shouted: "Chu Jingxian, do you know what you are talking about?"

Chu Jingxian's eyes were haggard, and his voice was silent and empty, as if he had lost his soul: "My minister knows that under the guise of delivering food to the mother and concubine, I mixed poisonous food into it. When the matter was revealed, I tried my best to get rid of my suspicions." However, I suddenly realized that I didn't want innocent people to take the blame for my son, so I confessed to my father!"
