Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 623: suspicious
“The hairpin head phoenix ()”
Queen Qiao had not cried for so many days. At this time, she was hugged by her daughter-in-law, and bursts of tears welled up in her eyes. Tears quickly soaked through the clothes on Lu Mingyu's shoulders.
Lu Mingyu's familiar voice sounded in his ears: "My father sent a letter to me one step ahead. I received the letter and immediately set off for the capital. I didn't dare to delay for a moment on the way."
"Early this morning, I received an urgent report from the capital. Li Chang died of poisoning in the Zongren Mansion, and his father Huang Longyan was furious."
The two had no time to say goodbye, and immediately got to the point.
Queen Qiao wiped her tears with her sleeve, took two steps back, and whispered quickly: "Yes. Li Chang died very strangely. The emperor was so angry that he fell ill again. After waking up this time, he suffered from suspicion. , I can't believe anyone. General Liang guarded the emperor himself, and the harem was sealed everywhere."
After a pause, he sighed: "Even outside the Shouning Palace, there are guards in the royal forest. It is said that it is to protect the safety of the Queen Mother, but in fact, even the Queen Mother can't believe it."
A son of heaven who is tense and suspicious, naturally very terrifying.
The atmosphere in the harem was suffocating.
Lu Mingyu stared at Queen Qiao and asked in a low voice: "Isn't it really the queen's hand that makes you move?"
Queen Joe: "..."
Queen Qiao smiled helplessly and bitterly: "I want to ask you about this sentence."
So, it's no wonder that Emperor Yongjia is so suspicious.
Because you look left and right, those who have the motivation and the ability to do it are the Jiaofang Palace and the East Palace. Concubine Meng and Concubine Qin just wanted to poison Li Chang, but she may not have the ability.
Lu Mingyu's brows were twisted into a knot, and the index finger of his right hand tapped lightly several times unconsciously.
This is a small gesture that Lu Mingyu makes when he has doubts in his heart.
Queen Qiao calmed down and said softly: "Since I heard the news of Li Chang's death yesterday, I have been thinking about this matter. I didn't do it. You and A Jingyuan are in the south of the Yangtze River. The news is not timely and there is no chance. Do it. Then who will do it?"
"I used to be suspicious of Concubine Meng, the first prince, and also the fourth prince of Concubine Qin. I even thought about Concubine Yang and Wang Jieyu. The emperor was furious at the death of the fifth prince. We will be suspicious and afraid of our mother and son. Then, who will be the biggest beneficiary? The one who does it must be who!"
In the absence of evidence, this line of thinking is also the most correct.
Lu Mingyu nodded subconsciously: "The mother's words are reasonable. If the father emperor wants to depose the East Palace because of this, who will be named the prince next?"
The eldest prince is crippled and can be excluded.
Next, the third prince and the fourth prince.
"In the past few years, the fourth prince has been favored by your father. There is also Concubine Qin, who has the support of the Queen Mother in the palace and the Marquis of Puyang outside the palace." Empress Qiao had obviously thought about it carefully, and she became suspicious of Concubine Qin. Mother and son: "If the emperor wants to change the crown prince, the fourth prince is the most likely."
Lu Mingyu nodded again, but an inconceivable and startling thought quickly flashed through her mind.
Lu Mingyu's pupils contracted slightly.
Queen Qiao did not pay attention to Lu Mingyu's strangeness, and continued: "The emperor also suspected that the fourth prince wanted to take advantage of the fisherman. Therefore, he issued an imperial decree to ban the first prince and the fourth prince."
"The Duke of Dongping and Yao Shangshu are both locked in the palace dungeon. The investigation of the case has also been handed over to General Liang."
"Liang Zhan is indeed loyal, and he is also good at leading troops and fighting. He is not good at investigating and deciding cases. It's just that the emperor can't trust anyone now, only him. This case has also been handed over to him."
"With Liang Zhan as a person, I won't fabricate and gossip. What I haven't done, I have nothing to feel guilty about. I just worry that as time goes by, and no evidence can be found, this case will become an unsolved case. In the end, it fell on our mother and son..."
"Empress mother," Lu Mingyu said coldly, "Have you ever thought that the mastermind of this matter may not be the fourth prince, let alone the first prince."
Queen Qiao was stunned: "Who else could it be? It won't be Hui'an and Jing'an!"
Then, because of this possibility, she took a breath and her voice trembled: "Isn't it Hui An! She has been daring and willful since she was a child, and she loves A Jing the most. If she believes that Li Chang assassinated A Jing, She..."
It's not that Princess Hui'an can't do anything about poisoning Li Chang to avenge her younger brother!
Lu Mingyu held Empress Qiao's trembling hand and said solemnly, "I believe in Huangjie, not her hand."
Queen Qiao was in a turmoil and looked up at Lu Mingyu: "This is not, that is not, who could it be? It will never be the hand of the Dongping County King!"
Dongping County King is inseparable. However, it would be too reluctant to say that the Duke of Dongping killed Li Chang.
The Duke of Dongping is on the side of the prince, and maintains a good relationship with the other princes. With the smoothness of the Duke of Dongping, how could he be willing to do such a dangerous thing for the prince?
Lu Mingyu's black eyes are like deep pools of water~IndoMTL.com~ cold to the bone: "There is another person, the mother ignored it."
Queen Qiao's thoughts flashed, and she gasped: "You mean Li Hao?"
"How is this possible!"
"Li Hao and Li Chang were detained separately, and they didn't even have the chance to meet each other. Besides, when they entered the sect's mansion, they were all searched, how could it be possible to enter with poison."
"Furthermore, everyone knows that Li Hao has a deep affection for the Li Chang brothers. Impossible, Li Hao will never kill Li Chang!"
Lu Mingyu looked at Queen Qiao and said slowly: "Empress mother, even you think this is impossible, and the father will not doubt Li Hao if he wants to come. But in fact, Li Hao is the biggest beneficiary of this matter."
"As soon as Li Chang died, he completely took on the notoriety of poisoning the crown prince. Li Hao could put everything on Li Chang's shoulders. The royal father was saddened by Li Chang's death and would be more tolerant towards Li Hao. Perhaps, soon Li Hao will be released from the clan mansion."
"The father was born with the desire to depose the East Palace and wanted to replace the crown prince. Why can't Li Hao be established?"
"Li Hao doesn't have a powerful family, but he has his father-in-law, the Marquis of Guangping, who holds a lot of troops. And Li Chang's Yue family is also Li Hao's help. Li Hao's literary talent is outstanding. In the name of talent."
"Isn't it logical that my father made Li Hao the crown prince?"
Queen Qiao gasped one after another, unable to utter a word.
Lu Mingyu's eyes are getting darker and darker, and the flames in his eyes are getting brighter and brighter: "It was Li Hao who hooked up the Qian family to assassinate the prince. If the prince is assassinated, Li Hao will be the biggest beneficiary. If the assassination fails, Li Hao will Pushed Li Chang out to be a scapegoat. He also used Li Chang's death to create the most favorable situation for him at the moment."
"What a good Li Hao! As expected, he is ruthless and ruthless! He even got such a vicious hand against Li Chang!"
