The Brocaded Tale of The Girl Si

Chapter 416: Chen Meiren

Emperor Jing Ming looked at Zhang Yuanshi.

Envoy Zhang was quite old, with ravines on his face and a snow-white beard.

Having experienced the tempering of the years, and staying in a place like the Taiyuan Hospital, such a person has already become calm as a mountain, but at this moment, he looks terrified, and his uneasiness is hard to hide.

Zhang Yuan envoy bowed deeply to Emperor Jing Ming, and an old voice sounded in the hall: "Reporting to the emperor, what Princess Yan said is good, the source of the poison is the mandarin duck vine!"

Hearing that Zhang Yuan also said the same, everyone held back the urge to refute for the time being and waited for him to continue talking.

Zhang Yuanshi lowered his head and said: "Mandarin duck vine is a good medicine for clearing away heat and detoxifying, there is no doubt about it, but there is one thing that is very similar in appearance to the mandarin duck vine, and it is difficult for people without pharmacological knowledge to distinguish it. And this thing is a kind of heartbroken grass. - Hook-kissed flower!"

In the folk, heartbroken grass is a general term, and several kinds of highly poisonous grass can be called heartbroken grass.

Hookflower is highly poisonous, especially the roots and young leaves. A very small amount can cause people to be poisoned and die in a short time. Its appearance has the most confusing feature, which is very similar to the mandarin duck vine that can be seen everywhere in the people. .

It's just that Hook-kiss flowers mainly grow in the south, and most of the people who were born in and grew up in the capital have never even heard of it.

After listening to Zhang Yuanshi's explanation, everyone couldn't help but shudder.

There is actually a highly poisonous thing that looks similar to the mandarin duck vine, which is really scary. What is even more shocking is that there is mandarin duck vine planted in Chen Meiren's yard, and Princess Yan and Zhang Yuanshi found in that piece of mandarin duck vine. The hook kiss flower... This matter cannot be pondered.

"Show me that hook kiss flower!"

Jiang Shi opened the handkerchief in his hand, revealing the flowers and leaves inside.

Everyone's eyes widened, seeing that the flower was pale yellow, and it looked very similar to the mandarin duck vine.

Emperor Jing Ming took a step forward and his eyes were deep: "This... this is the hook kiss flower?"

In his impression, he had only seen the mandarin duck vine once when he went out of the palace to make sacrifices to the sky. At that time, the flowers were blooming brilliantly, and the gold and silver were different, and it was no different from what Princess Yan had in the hands.

At that time, it was just a casual glance, and now if I ask him if the thing in front of him is honeysuckle, he can't tell.

I can't tell, of course, I have to listen to the imperial doctor.

There is a specialization in the art industry, and Emperor Jing Ming has always understood this point.

"Look, Your Majesty, this is the mandarin duck vine." Imperial Doctor Zhang took out the folded veil from his sleeve, opened it, and showed it to Emperor Jing Ming.

Jing Mingdi carefully distinguished, and finally saw a little difference.

"Is this hook kiss flower found in the mandarin duck vine?"

Jiang Si said: "Exactly."

Emperor Jing Ming stared at Jiang Si for a moment, then suddenly asked Pan Hai, who was standing quietly on one side: "How is the Fourteenth Princess?"

Pan Hai immediately said: "The slaves have already ordered people to stay outside, but I didn't dare to disturb Her Royal Highness Princess and Chen Meiren..."

When it comes to the emperor's concubines and daughters, Pan Hai certainly did not dare to act rashly without Emperor Jing Ming's orders.

Emperor Jing Ming's eyes swept across the people in the hall, his tone was slightly cool: "I and the Queen went to see the Fourteenth Princess, you all stay here for the time being."

The crowd immediately said yes.

Emperor Jing Ming stretched out his hand to the queen.

On formal occasions, Emperor Jing Ming always gave the Queen a respectability.

The queen put her hand into Emperor Jing Ming's hand.

"Lao Qi, take your daughter-in-law with me."

Yu Jin agreed, and extended his hand to Jiang Shi like Emperor Jing Ming.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Jiang Xia put his hand in Yu Jin's hand generously, and the couple followed the emperor and the others out of the Hall of Longevity, leaving everyone staring at him.

King Yan and Princess Yan actually held hands in public, how shameless!

What, the emperor also held hands? The harmony between the emperor and the queen is the luck of the people. How can this be the same?

"You said, is it really Chen Meiren who killed the fifteenth princess?"

"The fifteenth princess is just unlucky, what really matters is—"

"I can't figure it out, how could a little beauty-"

On this occasion, the discussion is about this kind of thing again. Rao is the royal family who is present without any scruples on weekdays, and only dares to speak half of it at this time.

Curious, scratching your lungs!

It's a pity it's not the Yan Wang couple...

Everyone thought so, and their eyes swept to the prince.

Thinking that the emperor only allowed King Yan and his wife to accompany them, and the prince and his wife sat on the bench in the hall with them, which seemed to be balanced.

Prince: "..." He didn't put the poison, so what did he do?

Led by Emperor Jing Ming, a group of people rushed to the residence of the Fourteenth Princess.

There were more than a dozen servants guarding silently there, and the people inside were not disturbed.

Emperor Jing Ming paused slightly.

Jiang Si whispered: "Father, although the Yuquan Palace found the heartbroken grass, but the dance girl is dead, it can't prove anything-"

Emperor Jing Ming raised his hand and said in a deep voice, "I know these things in my heart, so I don't need to worry about them."

Jiang Xi then stopped talking.

It would be ridiculous to say that it was a coincidence, but there was nothing absolute, so of course she had to remind her to feel at ease.

Yu Jin clenched her hand and said solemnly, "My father is wise and martial, and he will never wrong innocent people, let alone let wicked people go..."

Emperor Jing Ming glanced at Yu Jin, walked over and said lightly, "Let's pass it on."

The maid immediately said loudly: "The emperor is here, the empress is here—"

The courtyard door opened wide, and Emperor Jing Ming walked in first.

The palace servants in the courtyard knelt down, and the palace servants who came out of the house immediately knelt down and bowed.

A woman in a palace dress with a light makeup and a plain skirt walked out in a hurry: "I have seen the emperor and the concubine."

Emperor Jing Ming stopped in front of the woman in the palace dress, with an inexplicable tone: "Chen Meiren?"

Chen Meiren raised her gaze slightly, and caught sight of many faces she had never seen in addition to the tense face of the emperor.

The blood on her face faded suddenly.

"Do you know the crime?" Emperor Jing Ming asked word by word.

The four words were like heavy hammers, smashing into Chen Meiren's heart.

Chen Meiren trembled suddenly.

Without giving her a chance to think about it, Emperor Jing Ming said angrily, "The dance girl has already confessed, do you still want to argue?"

Hearing that the dancer had confessed, Chen Meiren's panic could no longer be concealed, and she collapsed to the ground in despair.

"Come here, go and bring out the Fourteenth Princess, why didn't she come to pay her respects?"

Emperor Jing Ming asked to see Princess Fourteen by name, and Chen Meiren fell on the ground and begged: "Your Majesty, Fourteen is ill. You want to know that all the ministers and concubines have confessed. I just ask you not to embarrass Fourteen, she is innocent!"

"Okay, you can talk about it." Emperor Jing Ming stood in the courtyard with a cold expression.

Chen Meiren kowtowed heavily: "I beg the emperor to allow the concubine to take another look at the fourteenth. Quan should say goodbye to the fourteenth."

Looking down at the woman who was begging, Emperor Jing Ming hated, but in the end he was a little soft-hearted and nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Meiren, fearing that Emperor Jing Ming would change her mind, hurried to the door, but she slowed down when she was about to enter, and straightened her clothes before going inside.

Seeing the figure disappearing from the door, Yu Jin shook his head secretly.

She's not a beloved woman, and she's soft-hearted. The father's fault needs to be corrected.
