Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 617: Poison hair (1)

“The hairpin head phoenix ()”

Li Chang raised a strange smile at the corner of his mouth, quickly stuffed the pill into his mouth, and ate it with the hot soup.

Severely hot in the stomach.

Severe pain suddenly swept through. As if there was a knife, stirring in the internal organs.

It hurts!

It hurts!

This is so **** realistic!

Li Chang took a deep breath, then his throat became hot, and with a wow, he spat out a large mouthful of black blood. His vision began to blur, and there were rumblings in his ears.

He heard the horrified cries of the soldiers: "Come here, come here! His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is poisoned!"

Haha!

Have you been fooled by his superb acting skills?

Li Chang wanted to grin, opened his mouth, and another mouthful of black blood. The cramps in the abdomen became more intense. His throat seemed to be strangled by a hand, and he couldn't breathe.

I really don't know where my brother got the medicine, it's like the real thing, the effect is so good. Not to mention others, even he himself began to think that the poison was real.

Hahaha!

Li Chang coughed violently, black blood pouring out of his mouth. Soon, black blood also overflowed from the corners of his eyes and ears, very terrifying.

Nothing can be heard in my ears. The eyes were blood red. It was the blood spilling out of his eye sockets, dyeing his world red.

He fell heavily to the ground, breathing harder and harder.

Before his consciousness completely plunged into darkness, one last thought flashed through his mind.

Third brother, you didn't lie to me!

……

What?

Yao Shang of the Ministry of Punishment was written in a livid color, and Huo Ran looked at the person who came: "What did you say? Say it again!"

The one who came to report the letter was the guard from the sect's mansion, with a very ugly expression on his face, and he quickly whispered: "How dare a young man lie about such a big matter! Not long after the Lord Shang Shu left, the Fifth Highness was screaming that he was hungry. The guards guarding the dungeon brought food in as usual."

"I never thought that the poison developed by the Fifth Highness after eating half of the meal. The poison is severe and the attack is very fast. When the guards realized something was wrong, the Fifth Highness was already poisoned and fell to the ground. Before the imperial doctor arrived, the Fifth Highness He died of anger."

Yao Shangshu's breath was so cold that he couldn't spit it out at all. It was so cold that it jumped into the abdomen, and the whole body was frozen from the inside to the outside.

Li Chang is actually dead!

Li Chang died like this!

No matter how hateful and hateful, that is also the son of Emperor Yongjia, the fifth prince of the Great Wei Dynasty.

Who was so daring to poison Li Chang in food?

Wait, he just came back from the Zongren Mansion not long ago. The last person Li Chang saw was him, as well as the Duke of Dongping. Aren't the two of them the most suspicious?

Yao Shangshu's head was buzzing, and he took another breath.

Standing aside, Zhu Shilang's expression was also very ugly. He frowned and asked the guard who delivered the letter: "With such a big event, where is the Duke of Dongping now?"

The guard replied in a low voice, "The county prince Lingxiao came to the punishment department to deliver a letter, and he has already entered the palace to plead guilty."

In any case, Li Chang died in the dungeon of the Zongren Mansion. The Duke of Dongping County is not to blame, and it is only natural to enter the palace to plead guilty.

Yao Shangshu sucked in a breath again, and squeezed a few words from his teeth: "Zhu Shilang, you personally lead someone to the Zongren's Mansion to find out how the Fifth Highness was poisoned."

Zhu Shilang replied solemnly, and then whispered: "What should I do now, my lord?"

Yao Shangshu smiled bitterly: "I'll go to the palace to ask for my sins!"

Dongping County King can't escape his involvement. He, the Minister of Punishment, jumped into the mud pit and can't tell.

Yao Shangshu had no intention of speaking again, and immediately set off to enter the palace. He is more than fifty years old this year, and he is not too young. He usually rides a carriage. Today, Yao Shangshu was so anxious that he simply rode into the palace.

The sound of horses' hooves is far less heavy than Yao Shangshu's heart.

For a short distance, a question kept circling in Yao Shangshu's mind.

Who was it that killed Li Chang?

The King of Dongping County has always been close to Donggong. Could it be that he was instructed by Queen Qiao to secretly poison Li Chang's meals? Or did Queen Qiao bribe the people in the Zongren Mansion and personally ordered the move? Or is it someone with ulterior motives who killed Li Chang and tried to fish in troubled waters?

However, after thinking about it, Yao Shangshu didn't have any doubts about Li Chang himself.

After all, looking left and right, Li Chang doesn't seem like someone who would commit suicide.

After entering the palace gate, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The guards outside the Wenhua Hall all looked solemn.

Yao Shangshu calmed down, stepped forward, and bowed his hands slightly: "My minister Yao Yuan, please see the emperor."

The servants who were guarding outside the hall obviously also knew the bad news of the death of the fifth prince. They looked at Yao Shangshu a little differently: "Master Yao, please wait, the servants will go in and pass the news."

Yao Shangshu, who never talks much, couldn't help but ask: "Where is the king of Dongping County?"

The waiter replied in a low voice, "It's been about half an hour since I went in."

The rest, but he refused to say a word.

The servants went in to communicate, and after a long time, Eunuch Liu came out.

Eunuch Liu's complexion was extremely gloomy today, and he sighed after seeing Yao Shangshu~IndoMTL.com~. Yao Shangshu felt cold again, lowered his voice and asked, "Eunuch Liu, how is the emperor now?"

As an important official, Yao Shangshu often goes in and out of Wenhua Hall, and is familiar with Eunuch Liu.

Liu Gongjing was the most vocal in the day, and he was probably confused today, but he didn't hide it, and replied in a low voice: "The emperor was shocked and angry when he heard the bad news, and he fainted at that time. Just as he was administering first aid to the emperor, Duke Dongping entered the hall, and he didn't even have time to say a word, he was kneeling in the hall!"

Recalling the situation at that time, Eunuch Liu couldn't help sighing again.

He has served Emperor Yongjia for many years and is very familiar with his temperament. Don't look at Emperor Yongjia being so angry with Li Hao and Li Chang, but the news of Li Chang's death is a blow to Emperor Yongjia!

No matter how stupid it is, he is also the son of Emperor Yongjia!

Emperor Yongjia was not a good husband, but a good father. Love the princes and princesses. Li Chang's sudden death from poison was undoubtedly a blow to Emperor Yongjia's heart and lungs.

I don't know when Emperor Yongjia will wake up after this fainting.

Yao Shangshu was full of obscurity and bitterness, and said in a low voice: "I also go in and kneel down with the Duke of Dongping to plead guilty."

Eunuch Liu gave Yao Shangshu a deep look: "Please forgive the rudeness of the old slave. From now on, it is better for Master Yao not to meet the prince."

The last time I saw Li Chang was the two of you. You are the most suspect. Let's get together again, lest the emperor be suspicious!

These two sentences are like cold water pouring down.

Yao Shangshu was completely calm and sober, and he surrendered to Eunuch Liu: "Thank you Eunuch Liu."

Eunuch Liu said no more, and led Yao Shangshu into the side hall to wait.

Yao Shangshu knelt down.

Regardless of whether Emperor Yongjia is awake or not, he, the Minister of Punishment, must show an attitude of admitting his fault.
