Chapter 111 Poisoning
After he finished speaking, the prince remained silent for a long time.
Su Qing raised his head suspiciously, and met the prince's deep pupils:
"Ah Qing, tell me, did you choose to marry me because you simply liked me or because I was the crown prince of the East Palace, the future emperor!"
Su Qing's heart skipped a beat, but she glared at him angrily: "What do you mean, how many times do I need to say that, I've always been interested in you. And it's not because of you that I've worked so hard! "
Hearing this, the string in the prince's heart was broken at once. He shook off Su Qing's hand, took a step back and looked at her coldly:
"Heh! For me? For me, you don't hesitate to use yourself as a lure to lure those young masters who are interested in you into the Eastern Palace."
"Su Qing, I don't need you to eat or wear less, I need you to go to such lengths to please those men. If you think that my status can be stabilized in this way, then this prince will not do it!"
Su Qing turned pale, and stared at him in disbelief: "How could you say such things to me?"
Thinking of something, she reacted suddenly, gritted her teeth and said, "It's Shen Mingjiao, right? She told you! Don't believe her, it was just a misunderstanding, I..."
The prince looked at her disappointedly, took out a stack of papers from his arms and threw them at her feet, then left without looking back.
Su Qing picked up the paper and flipped it over, her face became paler and paler, until she saw the seal at the end, she just sat down on the chair weakly.
She had seen a similar seal by chance, it was a secret letter to the emperor.
If it was only the crown prince who found out, she would be sure to coax him away. But how could it be His Majesty?
Thinking of those emperors in history who were suspicious of their sons, she shuddered deeply.
She thought that Jing and Di would not find out what she was doing in a secret so quickly. By the time he found out, most of the officials in the court had already voted for the prince.
She summoned her confidant maid to investigate what happened this morning. She couldn't believe it when she knew the whole story.
Because of Shen Mingjiao, all her previous arrangements came to nothing, and even Jing and Di were disgusted!
She walked back and forth uneasily, and asked someone to call his father Su Xiang over. After this incident, their Su family might lose their skin.
Thinking of this, she regretted why she wanted to provoke Shen Mingjiao.
In the beginning, she only thought of Shen Mingjiao as a slightly intelligent ancient boudoir girl who only knew about backyard tricks, so her knowledge was limited after all.
Now it seems that she underestimated the enemy. At the same time, he became more determined to get rid of the other party.
…
When Shen Mingjiao knew that the Su family had been found to have invaded the fertile land, that the clan's children were running rampant in the village, bullying men and women and other evil things, Jing and Di were so angry that they scolded Su Xiang in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and asked him to go home and meditate behind closed doors. .
Things have passed for several days. Ever since she confessed to Tie Zhu that the matter was brought up to Chu Yushi, she never asked about it.
There are many smart people in this world, but Su Qing is still too impatient and self-righteous.
She picked up a paintbrush again, and Er Ya saw that the princess was still lacking in interest after she said it for a long time, so she couldn't help scratching her head: "Princess, why are you not happy at all after hearing this news?"
Shen Mingjiao didn't raise his head: "It's expected, what's there to be happy about?"
As a vase princess who is motivated to be a salted fish, she can't understand Su Qing's behavior. The prince will be the emperor in the future, and Su Qing just needs to lie down and win the queen with peace of mind. Why do you work so hard?
But this has nothing to do with her, she has always had revenge, as long as Su Qing doesn't come to provoke her again, she won't bother to care about it.
She drew a few strokes absent-mindedly, and finally put the pen down impatiently, crumpled the paper and threw it into the wastebasket, and lay down on the table sleepily.
Usually, princesses like to listen to their gossip.
Qiu Ju looked at the sky and suggested:
"The sun is about to set, so why not go to the garden while the weather is nice!"
Shen Mingjiao also felt that it was boring to stay like this, so she put down the drawing paper and stood up before going out.
As soon as he left the courtyard, he met Tie Zhu who was hurrying towards him. Arya immediately gave him a blank look, "Why are you running in such a hurry?"
Tie Zhu took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Shen Mingjiao: "Princess, this is a letter from His Highness."
Seeing the familiar envelope, Shen Mingjiao's heart that had been carrying it for the past few days inexplicably relaxed. She reached out to take the letter and opened it a few times. It was still Feng Lisheng's usual style, with only a few words on the letter.
—You can return to Beijing in three days, don’t read it.
Shen Ming snorted heavily: "Writing a few more words will kill you!"
But he couldn't help but smile on his face, as if the unhappiness of the past few days disappeared in a flash.
She folded up the letter and put it away, then turned her head and raised her voice to order:
"Didn't you mean to go shopping in the garden? Why don't you hurry up? Erya, go and ask the kitchen to make more juice and bring it here, Qiu Ju, go and get the book that I haven't read in time."
The two servant girls were relieved to see this, and they smiled and retreated.
…
Feng Lisheng, who was thousands of miles away, was not in such a happy mood.
He sat in front of the desk with a sullen face. Not long after, Doctor Han came out from the inner room.
Feng Lisheng asked: "How is it?"
Military doctor Han replied in a low voice: "Commander Fang is poisoned, and the poison should come from southern Xinjiang."
Feng Wu asked urgently: "Is it possible to cure this poison?"
Military doctor Han shook his head apologetically: "Weichen is not good at poison, and this poison is very rare. Fortunately, Commander Fang is very skilled in martial arts, otherwise, if it is an ordinary person, he would be killed immediately. Even so, he would feel heart and lung cramps on weekdays." , if you don’t detoxify, you will die of heart failure after a long time.”
Feng Wu showed concern: "This poison is so powerful, who do you think can cure it?"
"The imperial physician in the palace may be able to give it a try, otherwise it is the one from the Red Lotus Sect."
Feng Lisheng moved his fingers, thinking of Cui Lingling, he said: "Take him back to Beijing first."
Feng Wu heaved a sigh of relief seeing this. It seems that His Highness can find someone who can detoxify.
Feng Lisheng asked: "How is the interrogation of those people in Longhu Mountain going?"
"Yang Dayang Er is interrogating, it should be soon."
After the group of them arrived at the Liangzhou Garrison, Feng Lisheng went through the procedure as usual. So he excused that the scenery in Shu was beautiful, and planned to take the soldiers up the mountain to practice.
Unfortunately, with such caution, when they arrived at Longhu Mountain, the man was killed ahead of time, and the two people who were in charge of following him also died.
A group of people went to the scene of the crime, and when they entered the room, a row of hidden weapons flew out from the side of the bed.
Feng Lisheng nimbly dodged sideways, but Fang Dacheng, who came in later, was accidentally slashed on the arm by a hidden weapon.
