18 - Don't go out without results
While Shi Qingzhou was thinking about what Long Xiaoyuan would do, Long Xiaoyuan already knew about the arrival of these clothes from palace maid, a eunuch.
It was actually the empress, Shi Qingzhou's reward. Sure enough, it had involved the empress!
When Long Xiaoyuan heard from Zhang Yuan that Imperial Consort Shan had been poisoned, he knew it wasn't that simple. As expected, it seemed that he had made a move on his empress!
However, you foolish humans, who is Shi Qingzhou? She was the main character! The other party is going to kill me, the emperor, and then I will become the emperor. Are you foolish humans trying to make me lose all my efforts?
It wasn't easy for him to do this, and Shi Qingzhou was starting to believe him. Heh heh, you guys are just trying to drag me down!
Long Xiaoyuan's expression turned uglier and uglier.
As Long Xiaoyuan's expression turned ugly, all of his concubines shuddered in fear.
However, there were two others who were more daring. No, to be exact, they had no brains.
Autumn Beauty was one of them.
"Your majesty!" Autumn Beauty exclaimed, "It was actually sent by the empress …" Why would the empress do that! "
The corner of Long Xiaoyuan's mouth twitched. What kind of IQ did Autumn Beauty have? A bunch of people didn't say anything, yet you want to be the vanguard … What an empty face! An embroidered pillow!
Long Xiaoyuan didn't really want to bother with this embroidered pillow, but he knew that if he didn't take care of this matter today, the next time, Shi Qingzhou would be splashed with a lot of dirty water!
Thus, Long Xiaoyuan looked at Autumn Beauty blandly. It was sent by the Queen half a year ago. What Autumn Beauty means is that the poison has been here since half a year ago, right? "
The surprised look on Autumn Beauty's face froze. "This …"
Long Xiaoyuan said lightly, "Imperial Physician Zhang, can you tell when the poison was administered?"
Zhang Yuan immediately responded, "This humble subject will judge in less than three days."
"How can you be so sure?" Luo Meiren, the other beauty among the two, could not help it.
Zhang Yuan did not say anything, but carefully looked at Long Xiaoyuan's direction.
Luo Meiren's expression changed slightly as she realized that she had overstepped her limits. However, a small imperial physician actually dared to disrespect him! This made Luo Meiren extremely unhappy!
Thus, Luo Meiren blinked her limpid eyes as she looked at Long Xiaoyuan, feeling wronged …
Long Xiaoyuan looked at Luo Meiren in a daze. That gaze shocked Luo Meiren, causing her to immediately kneel down. Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your concubine has crossed the line. "
Long Xiaoyuan said in a serious tone: "It's good that you know you have gone overboard. If there's a next time, you will be punished."
Luo Meiren pouted, feeling wronged. "Thank you, your majesty, for your kindness."
Long Xiaoyuan pretended not to see the eyes of others and acted like he didn't feel wronged. In fact, he was really angry right now!
These people, why were they jumping so happily on the road to their deaths? Don't you know to please his queen? Damn it, what a pig-like teammate!
Alright, these women weren't even considered teammates.
His heart was a bit agitated. He had come straight from the morning assembly, but there was nothing in his stomach! I was hungry a long time ago, and yet there were so many troublesome matters!
"Imperial Physician Zhang, how do you know that the poison was administered within three days? I don't want to know. Someone come! "
Originally, Zhang Yuan was ready to answer, but he didn't expect Long Xiaoyuan to say this. Immediately, Zhang Yuan lowered his head and listened attentively.
Soon, Zhou Qing appeared. Your Majesty, your servant is here. "
"Yes." Long Xiaoyuan nodded. "Imperial Consort Shan was poisoned. This is a big matter. Go and call Lord Zhou Xianwen from the justice court and the Ministry of Justice's Minister, Minister Zhong Ming over. We will investigate this matter strictly!"
"Yes sir!" Zhou Qing received the order and immediately left with his head lowered.
The expressions of many of the concubines changed slightly.
It wasn't that they hadn't used the Ministry of Justice and the justice courts to deal with matters within their concubines, but it was usually a bigger event. And once the Ministry of Justice or the justice courts were used, there would be countless people involved, and in the end, many people would be killed …
They actually used the Ministry of Justice and the justice courts this time? Or both?
All of the concubines had a bad premonition …
The assembly had just dispersed when the Ministry of Justice's President Zhong Ming and the Official of the Supreme Court were chased out of the palace. When they saw that they were brought to the rear palace, their expressions changed slightly. They even looked at each other without anyone noticing …
Long Xiaoyuan waited for Zhong Ming and Zhou Xianwen.
After the two of them had settled in, Long Xiaoyuan said lightly, "I am very angry that Imperial Consort Shan was poisoned. I want you guys to find out the truth about this matter." The Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court can split up and investigate, but I want to know the results in the shortest time possible! Before the results come to fruition, the two lords shall not go back either! "
"Yes!" This humble subject obeys the decree! " Zhong Ming and Zhou Xianwen were both over forty years old. Both of them broke out in cold sweat and quickly complied.
