When he heard the bad news that King Cheng was poisoned and killed, Emperor Jiahe vomited blood on the spot and fainted.

The first thing he did after waking up was Xiang Yun, the commander of Xuanjin Uniform Guard, who ordered him to thoroughly investigate the case of Cheng Wang.

Xiang Yun led his subordinates to Prince Cheng's Mansion overnight.

The matter is of great importance. Except for the bodies of Cheng Wang and his family, the three men were moved to the Bingku, Li Huarong's house and the concubine's new house were all equipped with utensils, and tea and meals were all intact. All the servants knelt in the front yard for interrogation.

The coroner first reported the autopsy results: "Sir, all of the three kings of Cheng were arsenic and frost. On both sides of Cheng King, poison was found on both wine glasses, and there was no problem in the wine pot. On the princess' side, there was poison in the wine, and a pack of arsenic and frost was found."

Xiang Yun looked solemn and immediately sent someone to interrogate everyone serving Li Huarongyuan. From the maid beside her to the gatekeeper, he also sent someone to interrogate other servants of the royal palace to see if someone had bought arsenic and frost recently, and directly brought the torture instruments, and both sides chose individuals to kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Their own son died, and Emperor Jiahe was so angry that he couldn't get up from vomiting blood. If he couldn't come up with a result tonight, he might not be the one who died tomorrow.

Soon someone asked for confession, but Dr. Zhang from Prince Cheng's Mansion said that a maid from the warehouse in the princess's yard went to him to ask for a small bag of arsenic and frost, saying that she was kept in the warehouse to deworm.

Xiang Yun ordered someone to mention Doctor Zhang and the sweeping maid separately to the room.

"She asked you for arsenic and frost, have you ever reported to the prince?"

Doctor Zhang knelt on the ground, thinking of the three people who could not resist the torture and died, he trembled and told the truth: "Arsenic. Frost is very poisonous. I said I should ask the prince first. She, so she knelt down crying and said that the person she liked since childhood was going to marry someone else. She wanted to poison the person to death, but I refused. She, she took off her clothes..."

Xiang Yun looked at the maid dressed in fine cloth: "Raise your head."

The little maid looked up, her eyebrows were indeed pretty, and she felt pitiful when she cried.

Xiang Yun pointed to the torture instrument next to him: "Tell me the truth now, I can save you from the pain of flesh and blood."

The little maid was so scared that she trembled all over and lowered her head and cried: "No, I am an orphan. Before the princess got married, I served the princess by her side. She had no one to like. That day, the princess went to the warehouse to check things, sent everyone out, and ordered me to go to Zhang's house to ask for arsenic and frost, and asked me to use any means to secretly ask for it, otherwise I would sell me to a kiln. I really had no choice but to lie to Zhang's house..."

"Take it out and test it." Xiang Yun said emotionally.

After two cups of tea, my subordinate returned and reported: "Sir, that maid is indeed not a virgin."

Xiang Yun nodded and asked someone to torture the two of them again. When they had their last breath, they still did not turn over their confessions. This made people drag them down and keep them back and take them over when Emperor Jiahe wanted to examine the people himself.

How did arsenic and frost come about? Next, it is time to find out why Princess Cheng poisoned and how did she poison it.

As the commander of the Jinyiwei, Xiang Yun was basically aware of the temperament of the nobles in the capital. The most famous female family of Li Huarong's family was jealous. When he found the body, Li Huarong dressed up like that. As long as he was sure that the poison was indeed given by Li Huarong, it proved that Li Huarong made hatred because of love and would rather kill King Cheng than serve a husband with others.

An hour later, Xiang Yun hurried into the palace.

Emperor Jiahe lay on the dragon couch with his eyes closed, serving Wanquan carefully beside him. The brothers Kang King Xu Jin and Xu Qi stood aside to fulfill their filial piety.

"Your Majesty, I'm back to the commander." Wan Quan called softly.

Emperor Jiahe suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes flushed: "Call in."

Xiang Yun quickly knelt in front of the dragon couch and looked at Emperor Jiahe and replied: "Your Majesty, I have found out that His Highness Cheng and the princess and concubines both took arsenic. Frost died, but the princess committed suicide. His Highness Cheng and the princess were murdered by the princess."

After saying that, she sent a maid to ask for Arsenic. After Shuang, she arranged for her confidant to go to the kitchen to inquire about the news, but actually explained the plan to apply Arsenic on the wine glass in detail, "Your Majesty, I have interrogated it again and again to ensure that what the few people said was not false, so she concluded that Princess Cheng would not be able to see His Highness Cheng marry the new man..."

"Poisonous woman, poisonous woman!"

Emperor Jiahe suddenly sat up, grief and angry, "That poisonous woman, I should have killed her long ago! Lao Wu valued her so much and thought about her everywhere, but she actually poisoned her..." Before he finished speaking, he sprayed another mouthful of blood.

"emperor!"

"Father!"

For a moment, Chongzheng Palace was in chaos.

The imperial doctor rescued Emperor Jiahe back from the gate of hell until midnight. However, the old man's qi and blood were attacking his heart. He fell asleep after taking the medicine and had no energy to investigate.

The three Xu Jin brothers continued to kneel in front of the couch and guard.

It's late at night and people are quiet.

King Kang looked at Xu Jin next to him quietly, and couldn't help but doubt, but there was no evidence. After all, the Jinyiwei had already investigated it clearly.

Xu Jin looked at the old man on the couch, and waves flashed in his seemingly calm phoenix eyes, which flew in a flash.

On his right side, Xu Qi lowered his head, closed his eyes, and his face was full of tears. He died, all the dead, and all the people who caused her to die, but he did not have the pleasure of revenge. He only hated himself for why he had to inspect the Yellow River. If he had not been determined to prove himself, Wanwan would not have had any trouble, and there would not have been anything that happened later...

But now it’s useless to regret it. He and her are separated from each other.

At dawn, Emperor Jiahe suddenly woke up from coughing.

The imperial physician was waiting outside the hall, and rushed in when he heard the movement.

First, he wanted to hurt his body, but then he experienced the double betrayal of his son's favorite concubine. Emperor Jiahe had already lost his body. He finally recovered three points in the past two years, but it only made him look good and still empty inside. Now he suddenly learned about his son's death. How could ordinary people bear the pain of a white-haired, black-haired man be tolerated? In addition, his son was poisoned to death by a woman who should have been dying for a long time. Emperor Jiahe hated and regretted it. He vomited blood twice, and his body became increasingly unbearable.

The doctors have no choice but to continue to use expensive medicinal materials to maintain them. If they are optimistic, they can be delayed until the end of the year. If they suffer a blow, they may not be able to sustain themselves for a month or two.

He knew his body best. Emperor Jiahe did not threaten the imperial physicians to do his best to help him prolong his life. After taking medicine, he lay down with his eyes closed for a while, and suddenly said, "The second and sixth brothers are gone."

King Kang's heart jumped and looked at Xu Jin instinctively. His head turned halfway, and he held it back and left.

Xu Qing turned around and looked at the fourth brother. Seeing that he looked at his father without squinting, he knew that if his expression was wrong at this time, he would harm the fourth brother. He suppressed his worries and went outside the hall.

Emperor Jiahe asked Wanquan to go out too.

Wanquan bowed his head and left.

There were only father and son left in the bedroom.

Emperor Jiahe turned his head, staring at his son kneeling in front of the couch with his turbid eyes: "Jingxing, tell me the truth, did you do it?"

The son admitted that he would not change his mind anymore, and he would be relieved only if he left it to the fourth brother.

When his son denied it, he believed that Lao Wu was really poisoned by that little woman.
