Chapter 173 (1/2)

The emperor was shocked.

Congrong was shaking uncontrollably.

”Ask the father to make decisions for his son's ministers!” Situ Chen opened his mouth again, grieved, and knocked heavily on the ground.

Congrong was nervous, her lips moved, but she didn't dare to say anything more.

The emperor turned his head and looked at the corner of the broken cloth on the ground. His eyes were dim.

Duke Liu made an agreement and gave the doctor a wink.

”Yes The doctor nodded. He picked up the cloth and tested it. It was still poisonous.

Situchen's face showed a little fear.

By this time, Li's mother had been dragged back, lying on the ground like a dead dog.

Congrong pinched the cuff, and did not dare to rush to her side.

At this time, situ Qian was also full of resentment -

just now, the poisoned pearl rolled down from situ Chen's sleeve, that is to say, it happened to be picked up by the imperial concubine. If it was picked up by one of them, it might be her who died.

”Just now, there were only the prince and the Cong family, right?” Situ Qian said coldly: ”Miss Cong's nanny is found sneaking outside the hall again. Miss Cong - don't you want to say something?”

Congrong's heart was pounding, but she glared at her. She said to situ Qian, ”what do you mean?”

”The meaning of this palace is very clear. Just now, there are only two masters and servants in this room except for brother Prince. Now that brother Prince is stuffed with unclean things, shouldn't you give an explanation?” Situ Qian sneered and was aggressive.

Everyone's eyes gathered on Congrong.

Congrong bit her lip and said, ”I don't know. At that time I was dizzy at that time

”Hum!” With a cold hum, situ Qian went forward and said to the emperor, ”father and emperor, the crown prince and elder brother are the crown prince of the dynasty. If someone really wants to murder him, it will be very important. The father and the emperor are wise. We must find out the truth about this matter today.”

As she spoke, her lips curled up a curve and took the rest of the corner of her eyes to see situ yuan.

indeed, Cong Rong has already disputed loudly at the next moment: ”Princess Royal, do not want to spit blood, I have said that just now I was confused with Prince Edward's Royal Highness, and I don't know what this is all about, and even if you have to doubt me, what reason do I have to do so?”

What's the reason?

It's hard to say before, but after today, she is the princess of Zhao.

Originally, empress Cong had two princes in her hand, and the Cong family's position was a little awkward, but as we all know, the queen has always supported the crown prince.

Now if the Cong family participated in the murder of the queen and the crown prince, who is the biggest beneficiary?

This time, situ Chen is not just for self-protection. Since he has already confirmed in his heart that Cong's family has transferred to situ yuan's camp, of course, he wants to kill all these people.

The emperor's eyes darkened.

Qi Guifei and situ Ming exchanged colors secretly --

they didn't think that situ yuan would do such a thing on today's occasion.

But from the beginning to the end, situ yuan did not say anything. Situ Qian sneered, and then stated a fact: ”but at that time in the front hall, you brought the cup of tea after poisoning mother to her. The Xi Niang who held the tea didn't admit it after being severely punished. Nine times out of ten, she is really innocent. Cong Rong, do you still want to quibble? When the mother's mother was poisoned and the prince's brother was murdered, you were the only one on the scene. It's too far fetched for you to argue at this time! ”

At first, the Emperor didn't doubt her, because it was obvious that no one would think of her first.

But these two things are connected, so many coincidences collide with each other --

now it's hard for people to doubt her.

”I didn't!” Congrong anxiously denied, ”how can I poison the empress?”? She is my aunt and the biological mother of my seven cousins, and I have no reason to do so. ”

”Don't you think the reason doesn't matter now?” Situ Qian Road, a provocative eyebrow.

The spearheads of the two events are directed at Congrong. It really doesn't matter whether there is a motive or not.

Congrong was so anxious that she wanted to cry. Looking around, she saw everyone's expressions of indifference or ridicule.
