The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Chapter four hundred and eleven

Princess Fuqing covered her mouth, her face as pale as snow.

The queen was not as good as Princess Fuqing's performance, she was shaky after hearing Yu Jin's words, and was supported by the palace maid next to her, so she didn't fall down.

The faces of everyone were even more colorful.

If the cup of poisoned wine belonged to Princess Fuqing, doesn't it mean that the murderer wanted to poison Princess Fuqing originally, and Princess Fifteen was the scapegoat?

The woman in palace dress who was stroking the corpse of the fifteenth princess and suppressing her crying burst into tears.

"Shut up, listen to what Lao Qi has to say!" Emperor Jing Ming shouted, and the audience immediately fell silent.

Yu Jin turned his eyes to Princess Fuqing: "If it's not true, just ask Princess Fuqing to find out. Fuqing, do you have any impression of Princess Fifteen's drinking?"

Princess Fuqing tried her best to keep her composure, recalled for a moment and said, "When the fifteenth sister was talking to me, she was drinking the plum wine offered by the palace maid."

"Then do you have an impression of her holding your wine glass?"

Princess Fuqing shook her head: "I turned around first, and the fifteenth sister followed, so I didn't pay attention to how the wine glass in the fifteenth sister's hand came."

"I have another question." Yu Jin's tone became more and more indifferent, but it lifted the hearts of everyone present.

"Seventh brother, please speak."

"Why did the thirteenth sister abandon the wine in front of her and ask Baihuayang from the palace maid?"

"King Yan, what do you mean!" The Queen asked Frost Mask.

Emperor Jing Ming waved his hand: "Queen, listen to Lao Qi."

The queen pursed her lips and stared at Yu Jin.

Yu Jin didn't change his face, and was not affected by the Queen's attitude at all: "The queen mother doesn't have to worry about it, since it's an investigation, no matter what the identity of the other party is, you have to ask these questions, I don't think Princess Fuqing wants Princess Fifteen to die inexplicably. ."

Before waiting for the queen to speak, Princess Fuqing said, "Seventh brother, you are right, you can't let the fifteenth sister go in a vague way."

She said and looked at Jiang Si, her eyes sad and soft: "The reason why I didn't use the wine glass in front of me, but took Baihuayang, was because I felt that it was not sincere enough to toast Qi Qi with fruit wine, so I gave up the plum wine and took Baihuayang... …”

As soon as Princess Fuqing said these words, the empress's eyes on Jiang Si suddenly changed.

There was an indescribable gratitude in the queen's eyes. If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, I'm afraid she would have pulled Jiang Xihao to thank her.

Thank goodness, if it weren't for Princess Yan, Fuqing would definitely have an accident today!

Emperor Jing Ming was even more pleased with Jiang Si.

Although the palm of the hand and the back of the hand are full of meat, there is no more flesh on the back of the hand than the palm of the hand. In his heart, of course, Princess Fuqing is more important.

The seventh daughter-in-law saved Fuqing's life!

His only concubine had been blind for so many years. If it were only good because he insisted on holding a palace banquet and an accident happened, then he would probably live in guilt all his life.

"Fifteenth sister... died for me?" Princess Fuqing murmured.

Yu Jin's indifferent tone turned soft: "That's not the fault of the princess, you and the fifteenth princess are both victims, and the murderer is the madman."

Tears rolled down from the corners of Princess Fuqing's eyes, her expression resolute: "Seventh brother, please find the murderer!"

Looking at Yu Jin's unhurried performance, Emperor Jing Ming nodded secretly and asked, "Old Seventh, what else do you think?"

"Father, the son feels that the most urgent task is to find the maid who served that glass of poisonous wine."

Emperor Jing Ming swept towards the queen.

The queen immediately asked the female official in charge of today's palace banquet.

Any details of these banquets must be considered, and which maids are in charge of which tables are arranged in advance.

The female official was a prudent and experienced woman, and after a little thought, she immediately named the six palace maids who were in charge of the princesses' table.

Seeing the six palace maids kneeling in a row, Yu Jin asked, "Who served Princess Fuqing's wine?"

The six palace maids trembled like chaff, and no one dared to say a word.

The queen hated: "If no one speaks, they will all pull out and give them a glass of poisoned wine!"

Her Fuqing was almost killed!

Why is this? Fuqing is so well-behaved and sensible, but he has suffered from bad luck since childhood. Now he has finally recovered and almost died...

Thinking of these, the Queen's heart turned hatred and anger.

The six palace maids still did not speak.

Seeing this, Yu Jin curled the corners of his lips.

No one dared to stand up, not surprisingly.

Regardless of whether the palace maid was the one who poisoned Princess Fuqing, since she served that glass of poisoned wine, the death penalty was inevitable.

In the face of death, even if there is no possibility of escaping, the sooner the better.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say it. Now start with the person on the far left, and report the names of the people before and after you when you presented the fruit wine." Yu Jin looked down at the six palace maids, his tone was indifferent, "The hesitant dragged out immediately!"

The maid on the far left trembled and said the names of the maids before and after, so the fourth person got stuck after saying the name of the maid behind him.

"In front of the slave... in front of..."

"Say, who is in front of you?" Yu Jin asked coldly.

The maid finally collapsed, crying and admitting: "There is no one in front of the maid, it's the plum wine that the maid served to Princess Fuqing..."

Knowing that disaster was imminent, she slumped to the ground.

The queen stared at the maid, her hands trembling: "Baby maid, why do you want to harm the princess?"

"No slaves! Empress Empress, you wouldn't dare to harm the princess if you kill slaves..." The palace servant explained in a hoarse voice.

The queen did not speak with a sullen face, and silently looked at Yu Jin.

Even if it is the poison of the palace maid in front of her, the palace maid is by no means the real murderer who harmed the princess. The queen understands this very well.

Obviously, Yu Jin's performance just now gave her some confidence in whether King Yan could find the murderer.

At this time, an imperial doctor suddenly said: "Report to the emperor, the ministers have found out what poison the fifteenth princess was poisoned by."

Emperor Jing Ming immediately asked, "What poison?"

"The poison of the fifteenth princess is the heartbroken grass. The roots and leaves of this grass are ground into a powder with strong toxicity. A little bit of entrance can cause people to die from poison in a very short time..."

With the doctor's narration, everyone's complexion changed and changed.

"You all stand up." Yu Jin walked around the six palace maids, and then asked the female official, "The palace maids in charge of today's banquet should be carefully inspected, right?"

The female official said: "Yes, these palace maids have the same hair style and dress. They need to bathe and change before entering the table. All the accessories from the beginning to the end have been inspected, and they are not allowed to wear sachets and other items."

"So, they have no chance of being entrained?"

The female official nodded affirmatively: "Absolutely impossible."

"Then this poison is either taken by the maid while the maid is unprepared, or given the poison to the maid after the maid enters the palace. In other words, the murderer must be in the hall!" Yu Jin said firmly.

Princess Rongyang sneered: "King Yan keeps claiming that the murderer's main target is Princess Fuqing. If the murderer is someone else, how can you be sure that the poisoned wine will be sent to Princess Fuqing?"

Yu Jin smiled and said, "It's very simple. Since there are several people in a team responsible for different tables, the murderer can lock this team of servants. The princesses' table is respected by Princess Fuqing, the first glass of wine. Naturally, it must be given to Princess Fuqing, so of course the murderer can be sure that the poisoned wine will be sent to Princess Fuqing."

Princess Rongyang was speechless.
