Chapter 148

Concubine Shu was the most cooperative person. Seeing that Feng Yinshuang was pulling things in her favor, she cooperated to persuade the emperor.

"Yeah, as I see it, Your Majesty, you should order this palace maid to be tortured, or punish her nine clans. I don't believe she can't tell the truth!"

Lan Xiang and Li Fei were both terrified at the same time.

Severely tortured, it would be better to die directly, she would definitely not be able to bear those punishments and everything would be done.

Moreover, she would rather die by herself, nothing more than Concubine Li promises her that after her death, she will definitely treat her family well and ensure that they will be clothed and fed for a lifetime, otherwise how could she risk her life to make such a big sacrifice.

But now that she even said that she was going to punish her nine clans, Lan Xiang's face turned pale with fright, and her whole body slumped to the ground.

What should she do now, if the emperor really wants to kill her family, can Concubine Li save them?

Li Fei suddenly became nervous when she saw the situation, and it was very likely that it was not good for herself, so she spoke sharply.

"Concubine Shu, you have always been a no-brainer, why are you suddenly so sure that Concubine Xian is not the murderer? Ben Gong suddenly remembered that it seemed that before the prince's wedding, there had been some conflicts with the future second concubine. Later, she was injured and was killed. The person was carried out from the East Palace and was unconscious for several days, if Concubine Xian is not, then who do you think the murderer is?"

This Li Fei is really poisonous!

Just turned the blame on Concubine Xian. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, she transferred the conflict to Concubine Shu.

If Concubine Xian had no motive for committing the crime, Concubine Shu must have.

Her daughter-in-law was almost insulted by the prince and almost lost her life. Although the announcement was just a misunderstanding, everyone who knew the inside story knew how bad the prince's actions were at that time. Is it possible that Concubine Shu held a grudge , waiting for an opportunity to deal with the prince?

Moreover, over the years, the Chaotang has been making a lot of noise.

It is said that the prince is mediocre and incompetent, and the second prince is both talented and handsome, and he is a genius of the sky, and he is the one who should inherit the great lineage the most. So, did Concubine Shu have long conceived the idea of ​​eradicating the prince and wanted her son to inherit the throne?

No matter what kind of motive, Concubine Shu is obviously suspected of committing the crime.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard Concubine Li's instigation, the emperor turned his attention to Concubine Shu, with suspicion and inquiry in his eyes.

Concubine Shu's heart jumped, she quickly calmed herself down, and looked at Concubine Li coldly.

"Who is the murderer depends on the evidence, instead of listening to the one-sided words of anyone here. It's Concubine Li, you just instigated Concubine Xian to be the murderer, and now you are secretly suspecting Ben Gong. It seems that you are very serious. I hope we are murderers!"

"You..." Concubine Li was suffocated by her words.

She made a very serious mistake. This Concubine Li is indeed very strange today. Hasn't she always been very cautious and never made enemies with others?

"Enough, stop arguing!" The group of women chattered, making the emperor's head big.

Originally, all kinds of evidence pointed to Concubine Xian, but now it seems that everyone is suspected.

He must find the murderer who killed the prince. The poison of his heart is obvious. If he kills the prince, he can set up such a series of bureaus to protect himself and retreat. If he really succeeds, then the emperor It is the most unsatisfactory.

Seeing that the situation became more and more chaotic, Chen Guogong and Chen Shuxian breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter who they suspect now, no matter what kind of quarrel they have, as long as it doesn't involve them.

Even so, they felt very ashamed and embarrassed.

The Crown Prince was killed on the wedding night. This crime must not be removed. The reputation of their Chen family is really about to fall from the highest point.

"Lanxiang, I will ask you one last time, who instructed you to poison the crown prince's cup, you'd better tell the truth immediately, my patience is limited, if you say it, I can still keep you safe. corpse."

Murdering the Crown Prince was already a capital crime, even if she was torn to pieces, it would be hard to understand her only hatred.

But, does the emperor mean that he will only execute her and not move her family?

Concubine Li could clearly see the shaking in Lan Xiang's eyes, and immediately cast a vicious look at her.

If she dared to recruit, even if the emperor released her whole family, she would never be merciful.

Aware of Concubine Li's gaze, Lan Xiang shuddered all over, and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, what the servants said was true, it was really the concubine Xian who instructed the servants to poison the servants in wine. Moreover, a few days before the prince's wedding, the concubine Shu came to the palace of the concubine Xian for many times. After the secret conversation, the servants thought it was a little strange, but they didn’t dare to ask any more questions. Later, I learned that the drink in the bridal chamber of His Royal Highness was made of osmanthus, so the concubine Xian asked the servants to poison the wine, and the servants were just a little palace maid. Ah, if she doesn't obey the master's orders, she will definitely beat the slaves to death."

Now she not only bites Concubine Xian and doesn't let go, but also drags Concubine Shu in.

Doesn't this mean that Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian conspired to kill the prince?

This seems to have been explained clearly. Concubine Shu wanted to poison the prince with Concubine Xian's hand, so she only pleaded with Concubine Xian just now. Otherwise, if such a big thing happened, everyone wanted to avoid suspicion. Come join in the fun again?

It seems that Concubine Li's ambition is really big!

Now Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian are obviously very frightened in their hearts. They originally thought they only wanted to target Concubine Xian, but now it seems that none of them can escape.

Fortunately, Feng Yinshuang had given them a warning in advance, otherwise they would have panicked and would not know what to do at all.

It was deadly silent, no one dared to speak out, and there were many mistakes. It might not only fail to help them, but also put things in an even more unfavorable situation.

In this matter, only Feng Yinshuang dared to take care of this business.

"The little girl has a doubt in her heart, and now I have to mention it."

What she said for a long time has always been very pertinent and rational, but the emperor trusted her a little.

"you say!"

Concubine Li had another bad premonition in her heart, and when Feng Yinshuang came forward, it was definitely not good again.

"It's a little strange to say that, the prince and the princess were drinking wine from a pot. Why is the prince poisoned to death, but the princess is safe and sound? Isn't it too strange?"

Now that she was reminded like this, everyone remembered this crucial question. Indeed, since the wine in this pot was poisonous, why was Chen Shuxian not poisoned to death?
