Legend of a Drop-dead Gorgeous Princess

Chapter 224: Another trap

The three imperial doctors knelt there, and there were four maids and maids who looked after Ling Zian.

There is also a corpse on the ground, who is taking care of the prince's wife. She saw the prince accident and committed suicide by hitting the wall.

Inside Fang Palace, Wen Heng kept flapping the door: "Let me out, how is my child? How is it?"

Ling Chen walked forward tremblingly, and he picked up the villain. He lay softly on his body, still warm.

"Who did it!" Ling Chen asked with a trembling voice.

Qing Yun covered her mouth and walked forward silently, Ling Zian's symptoms were poisoned.

King Rui, Huo Jingyun, and Bai Shaoting rushed over.

Huixiang, the maid who took care of the prince, cried and said: "I was passing by here today, and the little prince heard the sound of birds in the palace, he ran over. The little prince also liked to play here a few days ago, and the servant did not stop the little prince. Today, the little prince seems to have picked the jujube on the ground and ate it..."

The guards at the gate of Fanggong knelt to the ground. They saw the little prince coming and thought it was a child, but didn’t stop him at all. He saw the little prince eating with a jujube. He didn’t expect a child who was alive and kicking. Up...

"Doctor!" Ling Chen yelled.

The doctor's head knocked on the ground: "The emperor, when the humble position came over, the little prince was already, already..."

Qing Yun walked over and knelt beside Ling Chen. She opened the eyes of the little prince and took a look at him.

The little prince has lost his breath.

Qingyun slumped to the ground and cried: "The emperor, the little prince is really..."

Ling Chen's body trembled sharply, and almost fell, Qing Yun supported him. Qing Yun's mind just now seemed to have been blown up, who would be so cruel to kill the prince.

There are not many concubines in Ling Chen's palace, who would kill the little prince?

Qingyun took the little prince's hand and looked at it. In the child's hand, he was still holding half a green-red jujube.

She gestured to Ling Chen, Ling Chen picked up the date, looked at it, his face was pale, he gritted his teeth and slowly said: "King Rui, Bai Shaoting, check thoroughly, check thoroughly!" Ling Chen's eyes were red.

Wen Heng's voice was already dumb.

Ling Chen put down the corpse of the little prince and said to Gu Fan, "Let her come out and take a look, and let Hao do an autopsy."

Ling Chen turned his face away.

Someone opened the door of Fang Palace, and Wen Heng stumbled out. Qingyun looked at her in a gray shirt, with disheveled hair, her complexion waxy white, and her eyes swollen.

She picked up Ling Zi'an on the ground, "An'er, are you really dead? How could it be? Why?"

This son was taken outside as soon as he was born, and she never saw him again. A few days ago, he followed everyone to pick the dates in the forest behind. She saw him through the crack in the door.

Now, he is dead, he really died like that.

"The emperor, who on earth is so cruel to kill this poor child!" Wen Heng knelt by Ling Chen's legs.

"Don't worry, I will find out." Ling Chen did not look back.

Qing Yun just dipped a little blood from the corner of Ling Zi'an's mouth and smelled it. This poison is the most common form of arsenic.

Who dares to poison the prince so blatantly, it seems that this palace is about to usher in another round of **** storms.

All the servants and maids who had contact with the little prince were taken away.

Wu Zuo inspected the jujube left in the hands of the little prince, and there was really arsenic in the jujube.

Rui Wang and Bai Shaoting interrogated overnight for two days.

Huixiang said that she saw the little prince picking up dates on the ground to eat. She realized that she wanted to take them. The prince had already swallowed. The guard said that she only saw the prince holding dates and eating them, but didn't see if they were picked.

Huixiang said that the little prince ran over after hearing the bird calls in Fanggong. Wen Heng admitted that there was a bird in her yard. She caught it. The bird fell into the yard and was caught by her.

The question now is whether someone gave the little prince a poisoned date, or someone threw a poisoned date on the ground for the little prince to pick it up?

Someone gave it to the maids or house servants who had been in contact with the little prince. If they were picked up, it is possible for the guards. The guards can still give it to him while everyone is not paying attention.

If someone put it there on purpose, there must be more than one date. Bai Shaoting sent someone to search in front of the Fanggong gate. Sure enough, three more dates were found, but these three dates, two of them contained arsenic, and one contained fumigant. Fumigant was a chronic poison. People are paralyzed and unconscious, but will not cause death.

What will some dates contain smoked medicine, but some of them are arsenic?

Bai Shaoting deduced that two groups of people were poisoned.

Another round of interrogation.

Later, a girl named Shuangfeng said that she had seen someone walking by the gate of Fanggong half an hour ago. She only saw the back and looked at the dress, not the court lady.

During the period of the little prince's accident, the other concubines and the emperor all enjoyed the chrysanthemum and the garden. There is only one person, no one knows where she has gone, Qingyun.

King Rui summoned Qingyun and Xiaojing to question together.

When Qingyun entered the door, she saw Bai Shaoting frowning and staring at her thoughtfully.

King Rui asked: "Princess Qingyun, this king is routine, everyone has to ask. When the little prince happened, where were you? What were you doing?"

Qingyun said: "I've been sleeping in the room in the morning, having lunch, and when I went out, I met the emperor and they enjoyed the flowers."

"Does anyone know?" Bai Shaoting asked.

"Only Xiao Jing knows that I feel confused about the others, and let them go back to my room." Qing Yun replied.

Bai Shaoting said: "Xiao Jing is your personal girl. Her testimony can only be used for reference, not as evidence."

Qingyun remembered that Concubine Qing also went to Shufang Palace to find her, but she was sleeping and did not see Concubine Qing, and asked Xiao Jing to tell her that she had gone out.

Qingyun told King Rui and Bai Shaoting about this.

Qingyun felt a little uneasy, as if this was a cover for her. But then I thought, she has experienced so many, she will not panic anymore, soldiers will come to cover the water.

Qingyun finished answering their questions. When leaving the room, King Rui asked Shuangfeng who was standing at the back: "Do you look like her from the back?"

Shuangfeng said, "It's really similar, that's it."

King Rui and Bai Shaoting looked at each other.

Another day passed, and Qing Yun was called over again during the third round of interrogation.

This time, the person sitting at the main table was Ling Chen. Qing Yun saw his eyes are deep, his complexion is cold, and the green stubble can be faintly seen on his face.

Bai Shaoting went straight to the point: "Princess, someone discovered that half an hour before the little prince was killed, you had been to the gate of Fanggong. May I ask, what did the princess do in Fanggong?"

Qingyun understood at once that someone was really digging a hole for her.

Qingyun said: "I said that I didn't go anywhere that day. I was sleeping in the morning. I was afraid of being disturbed, so I told Xiaojing that if someone looked for me, I would say I was out."

King Rui said: "Why does the princess sleep all morning? Is it sick?"

Qing Yun said: "No, I just feel boring, I don't want to do anything, I'm in a bad mood."

King Rui said: "Who else can prove that the princess is really sleeping all the time? Now the concubine Qing has indeed said that she is looking for you, and your girl says you are not here."

Qingyun said: "I don't know who can prove it. I have basically no contact with the little prince, and I don't know he will go to Fanggong to play."

Ling Chen said: "You also like to make incense and poison? Also understand pharmacology? I originally thought you were playing for fun."

Qing Yun looked at Ling Chen: "The emperor, you should know if I will harm the little prince."
