C127 Poisonous Soup

The Emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and said with an unclear anger, "Consort Long, is this the truth?"

Since Consort Long was here, he could just ask her about everything and save so much time.

Consort Long knew that the Emperor was paranoid and just a servant had caused a ruckus at the annual banquet. Looking at the Emperor's expression, there was displeasure and one wrong sentence would only bring harm to Mu Ruqing. Out of the corner of her eye, she looked at Mu Ruqing and saw that it would only bring harm to Mu Ruqing.

She changed into a solemn expression and had a submissive attitude, "Replying to the Emperor, it is indeed true. The reason was that the two girls quarreled and then Eldest Prince's concubines could not take it and poisoned Princess Chu's servant girl to death with the red crane hat!"

"What? The red crane top?" The Emperor patted the Dragon Throne and it could be seen that he was angry but this time, it was all directed at Mu Ruxuan.

The Imperial Physician saw Consort Long's eyes and knelt down. His face was full of sincerity, "The poison is indeed Red Crane. He smeared it on the edge of the chair and the wangfei maid was stabbed, causing her to die from poisoning. "

"What evidence is there that it was done by the palace maid of Imperial Concubine Eldest Prince?" The Emperor's expression became darker and darker. He had actually poisoned someone to death at the banquet. He had even used the Crane Head Red. Red Crane was something that only the Mistress of the Imperial Palace could obtain. In other words, Red Crane was something only the Mistress of the Imperial Palace could obtain. It had something to do with some of the people present!

The Empress wanted to defend Mu Ruxuan, but when she saw Yu Longzi shake his head slightly, she did not say anything and just sat on the chair restlessly.

"This aunt and palace maid can make decisions, and after Imperial Concubine's palace maid was discovered, swallowing poison to death, the poison is in the fingernail of her little finger." Consort Long's gaze sized up the Empress, "On the spot, Princess Imperial Concubine's servant girl saw it with her own eyes."

Aunt and palace maid only nodded their heads in a daze and had a look of fear and trepidation. It was precisely because of this that the Emperor would believe.

"Emperor, I sincerely request the Imperial Physician to examine the Red Plum Lotus Soup on my table." Mu Ruqing did not give Mu Ruxuan the chance to speak and kowtowed again.

"Why is this so?" The Emperor was puzzled. This servant girl was dead, why did she want to investigate the lotus soup?

"That lotus soup was made for me by Consort Long alone." Mu Ruqing's eyes were clear and clear as she looked up at the Emperor. She did not dodge at all, "My maidservant was killed. I wonder if I will go with her."

"This is the Imperial Palace! With Zhen in charge, who would dare to act rashly? " The Emperor looked at her indifferent expression and felt somewhat satisfied in his heart. He was also a little unhappy with her words. This sentence seemed to be comforting Mu Ruqing but it was actually rejecting her request.

"Royal Father, what the Princess said is not unreasonable." Yu Longchen stepped out of his seat and knelt on the ground to speak for Mu Ruqing. As the saying goes, when you need to say it, say it, "That palace maid's traces are really suspicious. If you do not investigate clearly, how can you calm my son's heart?"

The Emperor was most helpless towards this son. He doted on him the most, but this beloved son went against him. It seemed that if he did not investigate, he would still cause trouble. Forget it, forget it. Looking at Yu Longchen's helpless tone, he said, "Imperial Physician, go and investigate!"

"Yes!" The Imperial Physician received the order. He walked to the table in the back row and inserted silver needles into the lotus soup. When he came out again, it had already turned black and his face was shocked. He quickly took the silver needle and knelt on the ground: "Replying to the Emperor, it is indeed poisonous!"

"Pa!" This was the sound of the Emperor slapping the dragon's head. He was really angry. The death of a maid was not a big deal, but the person who was going to be poisoned was Yu Longchen's wife, Dayong's Princess Chu!

"Concubine Eldest Prince!" The Emperor angrily shouted.

Mu Ruxuan's legs went soft, she knelt down and climbed up again, "I... I..."

Although the Empress was not satisfied with Mu Ruxuan, this daughter-in-law, she was still Mu Po's daughter after all. She did not think much about it as she did not see the instant delight in Consort Long's eyes.
