Chapter 220 I Suddenly Felt Redundant
"So you think the case can be closed?" Chu Qinghuang leaned on the bedside, flipping through the files brought by Chu Xuanyi in his hand, and spoke in a calm and calm tone.
Chu Xuanyi stood outside the partition and said with a lowered eyebrow: "It seems reasonable and reasonable, but both the minister and Mr. Pan think that the case cannot be closed yet."
"Why?"
Chu Xuanyi was silent for a moment: "Axiang is just a little maid. Where the poison in her hands came from is still a mystery."
"Didn't you interrogate the maid who lives with her?"
"Yes." Chu Xuanyi said, "But no one knows about this issue."
Chu Qinghuang's eyes fell on the confession, and she said lightly: "Princess Xuan has always been known as a virtuous person, but she can't even tolerate a bastard?"
Although the greater responsibility for this incident lies with King Xuan, it was precisely because of Princess Xuan's bowl of abortion pills that A Xiang held a grudge and was taken advantage of, which led to today's situation.
Chu Qinghuang didn't care. After all, there was a wrongdoer and a debtor, and Prince Xuan's own affairs had nothing to do with her. However, if this confession was presented to the imperial court, Princess Xuan's reputation as a virtuous woman would be affected.
"Continue to investigate." Chu Qinghuang closed the file and said in a calm voice, "Chu Xuanyi, I might as well tell you that the main messenger of the poisoning is among those noble ladies, but how to investigate and how to find evidence is up to you. Something about Master Pan.”
Chu Xuanyi was silent.
Noble daughter?
"I was poisoned in Prince Xuan's Mansion, and Prince Xuan and his wife are not involved." Chu Qinghuang turned her head and looked at Chu Xuanyi who was standing in the outer hall, "The two of them are also responsible for clearing the suspicion. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Yes." Chu Xuanyi lowered his head and responded, "I'm leaving."
Chu Qinghuang said nothing and let him leave.
Chu Lingchuan walked in with the decoction, passed by Chu Xuanyi, and walked into the inner hall in silence.
Fucang took the decoction and began to serve Chu Qinghuang to drink the medicine.
"This Prince Chu is well aware of current affairs." Chu Lingchuan looked out the window, "It is rare for the Xiqi royal family to have such a young man."
Chu Qinghuang took a sip of the medicine, glanced at him casually, and said calmly: "You should act like an eighteen-year-old when you are eighteen. Don't be too mature, or you may not be able to find a wife."
Chu Lingchuan smiled: "Your Highness, how long does it take for the Crown Prince to join forces with Dali Temple to investigate the case to find out the truth?"
"Feng Wanyue ordered the maid Axiang of Prince Xuan's Mansion to poison her, so she definitely didn't come in person to deal with it." Chu Qinghuang said, "She is the legitimate daughter of the Feng family, and her identity is so eye-catching that as long as one person sees it, she will not be able to defend herself."
Chu Lingchuan nodded: "Your Highness is right, so she should have arranged for her most trusted person to find Axiang, and this can also convince Axiang... No matter who this person is, as long as he is found, the truth will be revealed Can understand.”
As for how to investigate, this is the scope of responsibility of Prince Xuan's Mansion and Master Pan. In order to clear away the suspicion, King Xuan probably didn't mind turning over the palace to find this person.
Chu Qinghuang said nothing more, looked at the medicine bowl in Fu Cang's hand, and said calmly: "This medicine is not bitter."
Chu Lingchuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Although good medicine is bitter, I will try my best to choose some herbs that are not too bitter when preparing the medicine for His Highness."
Chu Qinghuang hummed and looked at Fucang: "Was the medicine you drank before bitter?"
Fu Cang shook his head: "It's okay."
To a shadow guard, the bitterness of the decoction is nothing.
Chu Lingchuan touched his nose and suddenly felt that he was a little redundant.
His eyes fell on Fucang's face, and he secretly wondered what was so special about this shadow guard that could make His Royal Highness the Princess look upon him with such special regard?
Apart from their different talents, aren't all the shadow guards in the world cut from the same mold? Most of the Shadow Guards are orphans. They have received rigorous training since childhood and experienced life and death dangers again and again. Those with good talents and strong will finally stand out.
It is true that Fu Cang has great talent, but he is not the only one with great talent. Although it is true that he has outstanding appearance, he is not the only one with outstanding appearance.
Chu Lingchuan touched his face. He felt that including himself, the five people in the backyard looked pretty good. Why didn't he see His Highness being so special to them?
"What are you still doing here?" Chu Qinghuang glanced at him, "Are you finished with your business?"
"Not yet." Chu Lingchuan suddenly came to his senses and bowed to leave. "Your Highness, take a good rest. I will leave first."
Alas, His Highness Hong Luanxing is moving, and there is nothing he can do if he refuses to accept it.
"Fucang, you don't need to pay attention to the affairs of Prince Xuan's Mansion." Chu Qinghuang said, "I have my own concerns."
Fu Cang was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Yes."
The master means that there is no need to go to kill people in the middle of the night, since the Feng family will not be able to survive for long anyway.
"I gave Chu Xuanyi a reminder that he can find clues just by checking Feng's house." Chu Qinghuang's voice was indifferent and deep, "At most, the truth will be revealed early tomorrow morning. I want to see what Feng Xiang is. What will be the reaction of Chu Tianyin and King Zhenbei?"
Fucang put the bowl aside and looked up at Chu Qinghuang: "If Feng Wanyue is found out, master, are you going to ransack the house? My subordinates have prepared the evidence and manpower in advance."
Chu Qinghuang was silent for a moment and said in a calm tone: "I have just been poisoned and my vitality is severely damaged. I need to rest. I am afraid that my house will be searched but I will not be strong enough."
Fucang heard what he meant and said, "Then..."
"Collect all the evidence and send it to Prince Xuan later." Chu Qinghuang said, "Consider it a favor given to him by this palace."
"yes."
