Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 205 Poisoning

Nie Wushuang watched his figure disappear, and then sat slumped in the chair. Loyalty was unpalatable, and she just wanted to try her best to persuade Xiao Fengqing to stop at the edge, but it seemed that she had the opposite effect and made Xiao Fengqing suspicious of her purpose.

She covered her face and let out a long sigh: But she clearly just didn't want him to drift away, and the day when the final plan came to light was also the beginning of the worst ending. Is it so difficult for him to accept such kindness?

Yang Zhi stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty..."

Nie Wushuang shook his head: "That's it!" After saying that, he ordered the palace people to pack up and slowly go to "Yonghua Palace".

The next day, Nie Wushuang caught wind and cold and lay in bed.

Xia Lan complained: "Yesterday I advised my mother not to walk in the snow, but she is indeed sick today!"

Nie Wushuang felt sore all over and felt dizzy. He coughed lightly and said, "Just ask the imperial doctor to take a look. There are a few posts of medicine on the left and right."

Xia Lan had no choice but to call the imperial doctor to diagnose the pulse syndrome. The imperial doctor took a look and found that it was just a common cold. He would be fine after taking a few pills and sweating. Nie Wushuang drank the medicine and lay down. In the middle of the night, he suddenly felt abdominal pain like cramping. It was bearable at first, but the pain became more and more painful. Nie Wushuang was so painful that he broke out in cold sweat. Mingqiu, who was watching the night, heard moans.

Yin hurriedly came in to check, and when the candlelight illuminated it, Nie Wushuang's face was as pale as blood, and his lips were ashen.

She was so shocked that the candlestick in her hand almost fell to the ground, and she quickly shouted: "Mother, what's wrong with you? Feng"

Nie Wushuang was so painful that she couldn't speak. She held out her hand tremblingly by the candlelight, and sure enough, she saw that the fingernails were black and blue.

"Quick! Go tell the imperial doctor, I'm...poisoned!" Nie Wushuang finally struggled to breathe and said this, then screamed in pain.

Mingqiu was frightened by her cry and rushed out of the palace, shouting repeatedly: "Go and ask for the doctor, go quickly!"

Nie Wushuang was in so much pain on the bed that she had to hold on to the sheets tightly. The severe pain seemed to burn through her internal organs. She didn't understand who she had offended, and he wanted to harm her so eagerly. Who is it? who is it? …

She gritted her teeth, rattling with pain. The palace people had already filed into the palace, lit candles, and Yang Zhi hurried in.

"Your Majesty?" He turned pale: "What happened to your Majesty?"

Nie Wushuang took advantage of the poison to take effect and grabbed his long sleeve: "Is it him? Yesterday..."

Yang Zhi, who had always been calm, also lost his composure: "Definitely not! Don't think too much, Madam... How could His Highness cut off his own arm?"

Nie Wushuang tremblingly let go of his sleeves, pressed his abdomen, and gasped for air. If it wasn't Xiao Fengqing who wanted to kill people and silence them, who was it? Who is it? Before she could think clearly, her throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of fishy-sweet liquid suddenly gushes out of her mouth, and with a "wow" sound, it sprayed all over the bed.

"Empress! Empress!..." Yang Zhi screamed in shock.

Her vision was blurry, and Nie Wushuang gradually lost consciousness in the severe pain. Everything in front of her eyes and ears seemed to be covered with a veil, the sounds were far and near, the light and shadow were chaotically mixed... Finally, darkness hit her, and she An unwilling thought passed through my mind: Could she just die like this...

The night is very long, as long as it seems endless. The people in the "Yonghua Palace" stayed awake all night, not only because of the long night of fear, but also because of the terrifying and angry figure in the palace.

He sat silently by the bed, looking at the woman whose face was as pale as paper. He picked up the warm towel beside the bed and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

"Your Majesty..." Eunuch Lin bowed slightly and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the morning court time is coming soon, isn't it..."

The expression on Xiao Fengming's face did not move, he was just silent. There was a suffocating atmosphere in the hall. After a long time, he finally said: "Did you find anything?"

"The imperial doctor who prescribed medicine for the empress has been arrested. The prescription has been confirmed by other imperial doctors. It is just an ordinary prescription. As for the medicine... I found out that the slave was mixed with pufferfish poison when making the medicine. The servant who cooked the medicine has been arrested. Stay here, Mr. Gong is keeping a close watch on him and will not let him commit suicide." Eunuch Lin said.

In Gongzhengji, the so-called method that prevents people from committing suicide is to tie the prisoner's limbs tightly and gag his mouth with a wooden ball that is not too big or too small to swallow or spit out. No one is allowed to visit before the interrogation. No food or drink is allowed either. Although this method is clumsy and tight, it is very effective and painful. In the palace, all the palace residents are afraid of Gong Zhengsi because there are countless heinous torture methods there, but it is precisely because of this that Gong Zhengsi is the most efficient in making people speak. Eunuch Lin believed that by dawn tomorrow, he would be able to find out who was behind the poisoning of Bi Bi.

"Yes." Xiao Fengming responded lightly.

Seeing his calm expression, Eunuch Lin couldn't help but add: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, your Majesty will definitely get through it. The doctors all said that although the poison on the Queen's body acted quickly, it has been cleaned up now and is no longer a problem."

Xiao Fengming's pure black eyes were filled with pain that he didn't understand. He gently touched her cheek with his hand and said slowly: "I promised her that I would never put her in a dangerous situation, but I kept doing it again and again. Break your promise. Uncle Lin, an emperor like me is too disappointing."

Eunuch Lin was startled. He had been serving Xiao Fengming since he was the crown prince. When Xiao Fengming was young, he often called him "Uncle Lin". As he grew older and his demeanor became calmer, he called him "Eunuch Lin". ", be distant and polite. He was a calm emperor, but since he learned that Nie Wushuang was poisoned and vomited blood in the middle of the night, Eunuch Lin saw a scene that he had almost never seen in his life.

Xiang: The emperor was panicked.

"Your Majesty, don't think too much. Empress Bi will not blame the Emperor when she wakes up. After all, she is in the palace... Alas, there are too many such things." Eunuch Lin sighed.

Xiao Fengming's fingers brushed across Nie Wushuang's closed brows, and he sighed heavily after a long time.

It was already the afternoon of the next day when Nie Wushuang woke up, as if she had had a long and painful nightmare. When she woke up, she still felt the severe pain from that night all over her body. She moved her fingers and looked at Xia Xia who was watching from the side. Lan was startled, and suddenly shouted in surprise: "Your Majesty, I'm awake! Your Majesty, you're finally awake..." She cried with joy, pulling Nie Wushuang to sob.

Nie Wushuang tried to struggle to get up, only to realize that he was so weak that he had no strength at all.

"Your Majesty, please don't get up. The imperial doctor said that the remaining poison on your Majesty's body has not been cleaned out yet, and it will take two days..." Before she could finish speaking, Nie Wushuang grabbed her arm tightly and spoke with difficulty: "Go... …Call Yang Zhi to come!”

After a while, Yang Zhi hurriedly walked to her couch, knelt down and said, "What do you want me to do?"

"Check...find out who wants to harm me?" Nie Wushuang's Qingcheng face was covered with a shadow. She had not forgotten the danger of last night, and the feeling that her spirit and soul were almost painfully separated from her body.

"We haven't found out yet. The emperor came last night and ordered a thorough investigation. He sent the servant who cooked the medicine to the palace. I believe he will soon confess who is the mastermind." Yang Zhidao.

Nie Wushuang held her chest, which was still in burning pain. Her beautiful eyes burst out with cold murderous intent, and she said in a hoarse voice, "No matter who is found out this time, I... want her to die." !”

Before nightfall, shocking news came from Gong Zhengsi. The chamberlain of Jianyao was strangled to death in Gong Zhengsi's house, and Gong Zhengsi had just interrogated him for one round. When the news reached "Yonghua Palace", Nie Wushuang was leaning on Xiao Fengming's chest and drinking medicine.

The concoction was spicy and bitter, and my stomach, which had been empty for a day, became even more uncomfortable because of the medicine. She looked at Xiao Fengming, who suddenly turned pale, and then at the chamberlain who reported tremblingly, and suddenly laughed coldly.

Xiao Fengming asked a few more questions and became furious: "A good person died under your noses! Call the supervisor of Gong Zhengsi to come see me!"

After saying this, he angrily walked away. Nie Wushuang leaned against the bed, with a hint of a smile on her pale lips. Yang Zhi stepped forward: "I'm afraid this matter will become an open case again."

"No..." Nie Wushuang laughed, but the smile was cold and frightening: "I know who it is."

Yang Zhi was startled: "Do you really know who it is? But the clue lies with the chamberlain who made the medicine, and he can no longer speak."

Nie Wushuang laughed coldly. After being poisoned, the emptiness in her body made her mind clearer. She said slowly: "Dead people can't speak, but the dead can let people know a lot of things. For example, who wants to harm me."

Her beautiful eyes became darker because of her thinness: "In the harem, there are no more than five or six people who can kill people in a majestic way. The first is the empress dowager, the second is the empress, the third is the concubine Shu, and the fourth is..." She glanced at Yang Zhi, and that look was so cold that even an old man in the palace like Yang Zhi, who had gone through many storms, felt his heart tremble.

"Your Majesty, this servant will never dare." Yang Zhi knelt down and said firmly.

"Don't worry, I know it's not you." Nie Wushuang looked away lightly: "Although you are loyal to Prince Rui, you are also wholeheartedly supporting me. You are not that stupid."
