emperor cold concubine

Chapter 701
Ever since the incomparably glamorous conferring ceremony three years ago had amazed the world, Haotian Palace—the most mysterious and noble palace in the eyes of the world in Cangyue Palace was immediately sealed up again by formations.

In the past three years, including Cang Hao, almost no one went in again.

And Chu Han and He Lianzhan, including Cang Fengqi, had the opportunity to step here for the first time.

The Haotian Palace, which faintly exudes an incomparable noble atmosphere, will always give people the feeling of being amazed and shocked, and people can't help but feel awe and bow their heads.

"Medical books are in the second and third rows. There are many extinct medicines and detoxification books here. Correspondingly, the two of you can go to the books to find the answer with the mentality of giving it a try."

After Cang Hao finished speaking, he walked out alone, leaving Chu Han and He Lian Zhan facing each other in front of the huge bookshelf.

After thinking about it for a while, the two of them understood what their master meant—don't be nervous, just give it a try, even if they really can't find a way to prepare the antidote, the two of them will not be convicted.

Facing a poison that no one had ever seen before, their helplessness was only temporary. Chu Han never thought that there were any difficult and miscellaneous diseases in the world that could stop him.As for Helian Zhan, don't say that what he wants to cure is the poison on the little master's body, even if it's just a stranger, he will never let himself smash the signboard.

All they need is time.

Cang Fengqi walked out with Cang Hao expressionlessly, stood on the black crystal floor tile next to the white marble jade pillar with black dragon pattern, stared at the back of the emperor in front of him, and was silent for a long time without speaking.

It wasn't until this silence gradually turned into depression that he had to force himself to speak to end this silent confrontation. He lowered his eyes and said slowly: "I have no shirkable responsibility for the prince's poisoning. Also... have nothing to say."

As the Taifu, he was in the same palace as the prince, and spent at least half of the day with him.Compared with Ziyu who guards the court, he should bear greater responsibility for the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Cang Hao stood leaning on the railing with his hands behind his back, his picturesque brows were as cold as frost, his eyes were turbulent and unfathomable, hearing Cang Fengqi's words, he said coldly: "You don't have to rush to take responsibility, after finding out the cause and effect of the matter , the responsibility that should be borne, the crime that should be punished, no one can escape.”

Cang Fengqi's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, but he felt relieved for some reason, and replied in a low voice: "Yes, the minister has lost his composure."

Perhaps, subconsciously, he didn't want to have privileges and be valued. However, he didn't have to take responsibility after making a major mistake, which would only make him feel... like an outsider.

"I asked you to come here just because I want to know the specific situation before and after Ling'er was poisoned." Cang Hao said, "Who was there at the time, what did he eat or drink? Did anything abnormal happen after the poisoning? Or, who has abnormal behavior?"

After a pause, he said: "Cang Fengqi, maybe you think these questions from me are a bit boring. I also know that both Ziyu and you have probably checked in detail before this. What I want to know is your investigation results. But what is presented on paper has already been finalized, and this king does not believe it. What this king needs is your dictation—every word."

Cang Fengqi was silent for a long time, before he said: "Why didn't His Majesty suspect the matter of the crown prince on the minister's head?"

"Doubt you?" Cang Hao raised the corners of his lips lightly, "Instead of having the time to doubt you, wouldn't it be easier not to spare your life in the first place?"

Hearing the words, Cang Fengqi was stunned for a moment, then fell silent for a while, with all kinds of thoughts floating in his heart, and finally gradually returned to silence.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "I obey the order... But before that, I have one thing to report."

"what's up?"

"The day before His Royal Highness's accident, Biyue, the owner of Fengyi Building, stayed in the East Palace for half a day, and that night, His Royal Highness only had a small cup of white fungus and lotus seed soup for dinner, and his bedtime was an hour earlier than usual. "Cang Fengqi has a clear memory, but he only stated the facts without any subjective assumptions, "That evening minister originally arranged a literature class for half an hour, but Zicheng arrived at the East Palace ahead of time for a cup of tea, but unexpectedly found that His Royal Highness Already fell asleep. I didn't think much about it at the time, but thought that His Royal Highness was still young after all, and the continuous literature lessons and martial arts training probably made him a little too much, so that it was normal for him to be tired early before bedtime. Simply cancel the class..."

"Except for the servants in the Eastern Palace that night, there were only four maids around the prince serving in turn, and no one else was close to him. When the prince got up early the next morning, he did not notice any abnormalities in his complexion or body, and he seemed to be resting well. , full of energy, eager to compete with King Yun—"

Cang Hao turned his head and said lightly: "If you think there is nothing abnormal, why did you report this part?"

"I just think it's a bit of a coincidence." Cang Fengxi said neither humble nor overbearing, with no panic in his expression, "Sometimes, things that are taken for granted are the easiest to make people lose their guard."

Cang Haofu turned around again, turned his back to him, and said indifferently: "Continue."

"Yes." Cang Fengqi sorted out his thoughts as quickly as possible, and continued: "His Royal Highness attended an hour-long class in the East Palace, and left the palace to go to Yunwang Mansion after lunch—during which, the minister and the son The two commanders accompanied His Highness to protect His Highness's safety, and the time from going to Prince Yun's Mansion to returning to the palace was only half an hour, and along the way, no outsider had the opportunity to come into contact with His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Why only half an hour?"

"Because His Royal Highness King Yun met a woman outside the palace, he specially brought her into the palace to pay her respects to Concubine Shu. The Crown Prince didn't know about it before, so when he went to Prince Yun's mansion, he missed it."

Cang Hao said: "Since entered the palace, Zi Yu didn't know?"

Cang Fengqi shook his head: "The time when I waited to leave the palace almost coincided with the time when King Yun entered the palace, it can also be said that they passed by, so Commander Zi didn't receive the news, and because we left Different paths and missed the opportunity to meet."

Cang Hao nodded casually, "Continue."

"After returning to the palace, the crown prince said that he wanted to see the beauties brought by Shisi. The minister agreed, and walked with him to the palace of the concubine dowager. But before walking halfway, His Royal Highness... fainted .”

Not long after that, the palace almost fell into chaos.

"Cang Fengqi." Cang Hao said lightly, but with certainty, "I already understand what you mean, you can tell me now whether the time the prince went to bed the day before and the time when he passed out the next day were at the same hour inside?"
