Chapter 741 Contradictory

  Luo Qinghan summoned Xiao Lingfeng and Fang Wujiu to inquire about the details of the incident.

  Neither of them are parties, and can only relay what others have said.

  Xiao Lingfeng: "The two female assassins were both from Liao, and the Liao Kingdom has enmity with our country. At the end it will be suspected that the assassination might have been deliberately done by the Liao Kingdom."

  Luo Qinghan: "If the Liao Kingdom wants revenge, it should be against me. The imperial concubine is Nanyue's princess. What's the use of killing her?"

  Xiao Lingfeng had been thinking about it for a long time, and immediately said his guess.

   "Killing the imperial concubine, one can make the emperor lose his love, and the other can provoke a dispute between Dasheng and Nanyue, killing two birds with one stone!"

  Luo Qinghan remained silent, seeming to be thinking.

  Fang Wujiu: "General Xiao's words are not unreasonable, but Weichen is unclear about one thing."

   Luo Qinghan: "You said it."

Fang Wujiu: "The crossbow arrow that shot the imperial concubine is coated with poison, but the poison will only make people coma for a short time and will not kill humans. If the Liao people decide to put the imperial concubine to death, why not see it? The venom of blood sealing the throat?"

  Xiao Lingfeng couldn't answer.

  If you can smear the poisonous arrow on the arrow, the chance of a successful assassination will definitely be higher. It is impossible for the assassin to not know this.

  This matter is indeed a bit strange.

  Fang Wujiu: "The assassins did not use poison, which means that they may not really want to kill the noble concubine. The assassination is just an illusion. They actually have other plans."

  Luo Qinghan thought for a while and decided to call in Jing Fei, Li Fei, Su Cairen, and Shao Liangren. They were all people who had experienced the assassination personally. If you ask them, you will be able to understand the whole thing better.

  The four concubines were a little surprised, but did not expect the emperor to return to the palace in advance.

  Both parties see each other.

  Jing Concubine has tears in her beautiful eyes, and her tone of voice is sad.

   "My lord, my concubine almost missed you."

  Shao Liangren also wiped the corners of his eyes with the kerchief, and said in a trembled voice.

   "The two female assassins are so fierce. The concubine has never encountered such a thing before. Fortunately, Your Majesty has returned early, otherwise the concubine's heart will not be peaceful for a day."

  Li Concubine was actually very scared, but she just glanced at the emperor and knew that the emperor didn’t care if she was scared, so she didn’t say anything at all.

  Su Cairen kept his head down and said nothing.

  Luo Qinghan ignored the crying of Concubine Jing and Liangren Shao. Instead, he looked at Xiao Lingfeng beside him and motioned him to ask questions.

  Xiao Lingfeng stepped forward and bowed his hands to the four concubines.

   "The final general was ordered to thoroughly investigate the assassin. There are some questions that need the help of four women to answer. Please also ask the women to answer truthfully."

Concubine Jing nodded: "Suddenly something like this happened in the palace. This palace also hopes to find out the truth as soon as possible. Otherwise, this palace will not be able to settle down. If General Xiao wants to ask, just ask, this palace will definitely Know everything."

  Xiao Lingfeng: "Why do you call the dancers?"

  Jing Concubine frowned: "Are you doubting this palace?"

  Xiao Lingfeng: "I'm too worried, but in the end, I will just do things as usual."

  Jing Concubine glanced at the emperor, and saw that the emperor had no expression on his face, and could not see the joy or anger, so she could only explain in anguish.

"My palace heard that Su Cairen wanted to play the pipa for the noble concubine empress. My palace felt that listening to the pipa was too monotonous, so people called two dancers over to help. My palace didn't know that the dancer who was called was an assassin. , Ask the emperor to learn from you!"

  Xiao Lingfeng looked at Shao Liangren.

  "Why did you go to see the imperial concubine with Jingfei?"

  Liangren Shao: "I went to talk to Empress Jing concubine when I was free, and I happened to talk about the concubine empress's illness, so I made an appointment to visit the imperial concubine empress."

  Xiao Lingfeng asked: "You are very close to Concubine Jing?"

  Liangren Shao lowered her eyes: "The concubine Jing is tolerant and kind, and takes good care of me on weekdays."

  Li Fei heard this and couldn't help rolling her eyes, hypocrisy!

  Her blank eyes were caught by Xiao Lingfeng.

  Xiao Lingfeng looked at her: "What do you want to say?"

  Li Fei's expression froze.

  She quickly reduced her expression: "I have nothing to say in this palace."

  Xiao Lingfeng finally looked at Su Cairen and asked what she knew?

  Su Cairen kept his head down from beginning to end, and slowly raised his head when he heard the words, revealing a beautiful face.

  She bit her lower lip, as if she had made a certain determination, her eyes showed a bit of determination.

   "I don't know how the assassin came, but I have something to say."

  Xiao Lingfeng immediately said: "Please speak."

  Su Cairen first glanced at Shao Liangren, and then said.

   "When the assassin did his hand to the imperial concubine just now, I saw... I saw Shao Liangren deliberately overturning the vase. The vase happened to block the noble concubine’s path and almost killed the imperial concubine!"

  Shao Liangren's face changed drastically when he heard this.

  She denied it without even thinking about it: "No! That vase was not pushed down by the concubine, and the concubine is innocent, please see to the emperor!"

  Su Cairen: "Emperor Jing was by Shao Liangren's side at the time, and Empress Jing should have seen her too."

  Jing Concubine shook her head: "No, my concubine was terrified at the time, so I just tried to run for my life without noticing anything."

  Su Cairen looked at her in disbelief: "Why the mother refused to tell the truth?"

  Jing Concubine helplessly: "I'm telling the truth, I really didn't notice who knocked down the vase."

  Su Cairen was anxious: "You were so close to Shao Liangren at that time, you can't possibly fail to see it!"

  Liangren Shao looked at her with tears: "What Empress Jing said is the truth, why don't you believe it? Do you have to let Empress Jing only accept the concubine to murder the imperial concubine to be reconciled?!"

  Su Cairen: "It’s not like that, you are lying, Empress Jing must be protecting you!"

Concubine Jing frowned: "Su Cairen, you not only slander Shao Liangren, but you also want to slander this palace. What is your heart? Is it you who really knocked down the vase and wanted to murder the imperial concubine? You deliberately slandered this palace and Shao Liangren, for It's confusing!"

  Su Cairen blushed with anxiety: "I don’t have a concubine body! What the concubine body said is true, and the concubine body can swear that if there is a half-line, let the concubine body thunder and strike!"

Seeing that the three of them were about to quarrel, Luo Qing interrupted coldly.

"enough!"

  The three of them shut up at the same time, and they dare not say anything again.

  Xiao Lingfeng looked at the only concubine Li who was outside, and asked respectfully.

   "Did the empress see who knocked down that vase?"

  Li Fei's eyes swept over Jing Fei, Su Cairen, and Shao Liangren one by one, and finally stayed on Su Cairen.

  Su Cairen was very disturbed.

  It took a long time to hear Li Fei speak.

"When the assassin started, it was Su Cairen who first reacted and stunned an assassin with a pipa in her arms. Later, in order to protect the concubine and empress, she did not hesitate to replace her body. Seriously, if she really wanted to harm the concubine and empress, Why do these things? Isn't it contradictory?"
