Time Travel Female Queen, Legend of Medicine Saint
Chapter 216 Test the poison
Jiang Qingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart when he looked at the serious expressions on the faces of the emperor's husband and the princess.
She understood that if she did not tell the truth, the two royal nobles might mistakenly think that she was deliberately provoking and disrespecting the majesty of the royal family.
This was not the result she wanted.
So, she took a deep breath and spoke slowly: "Royal father, Qingchen did not mean to disrespect Your Highness, but this glass of wine is indeed poisonous."
Although her voice was calm, it revealed a firmness and determination.
Ninth Prince Ye Ruize was shocked when he heard Jiang Qingchen's words.
He stood up suddenly and looked at Jiang Qingchen with a solemn face: "What? The wine is poisonous? Is this impossible?"
A strong uneasiness surged in his heart, worrying about Jiang Qingchen's safety.
The royal husband also had an angry look on his face. He slapped the table hard, with a hint of majesty and anger in his voice: "Nonsense! We have been drinking this wine, the same cup, the same pot of wine, how could it suddenly happen? Became poisonous? You are clearly bullying the young lady!"
Jiang Qingchen felt a burst of pressure from the Zhenghuang Husband's words, but she did not flinch.
She knew she had to persevere or she would get into bigger trouble.
So, she took a deep breath and said firmly: "Royal father, Qingchen is not unreasonable. This glass of wine is indeed poisonous. I can ask someone to test it on a rabbit. If it is not poisonous, I will let you do it."
Ninth Prince Ye Ruize couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration in his heart when he heard Jiang Qingchen's words.
Jiang Qingchen was taking a risk, but she was willing to take the risk to prove her innocence, and she certainly couldn't bear to fear the emperor's wrath.
He stood up, walked to Jiang Qingchen, took a deep look at her, and then said: "Emperor, Your Highness, please believe what Qingchen says. She is not an unreasonable person, and she must have her reasons for doing this. .”
The royal husband looked at the Ninth Prince Ye Ruize and Jiang Qingchen, and couldn't help but feel doubts in his heart.
He looked at the concubine, then at Jiang Qingchen, and finally nodded: "Okay, since you said so, let someone test it on a rabbit."
Soon, the palace servants brought a snow-white rabbit.
Jiang Qingchen took the rabbit and gently stroked its soft and delicate hair, with a trace of apology and helplessness on his face. She said softly: "Little Rabbit, I'm sorry, I can only let you try the wine. Although you are very cute, human life is more important, and I can't take risks. I hope you can understand."
After she finished speaking, she slowly poured the wine in the glass into another delicate small bowl. The wine shone seductively under the light. Then, she handed the small bowl to the palace servant next to her and motioned for him to feed the rabbit.
The palace servant took the small bowl, with a trace of hesitation and reluctance on his face. But as his duty lay, he could only bite the bullet and feed the wine to the rabbit. The little rabbit didn't seem to know what was about to happen. It innocently licked the wine in the bowl.
Everyone looked at the little rabbit nervously, waiting for the result. The atmosphere in the entire dining hall became extremely solemn, as if even the air had solidified.
Sure enough, not long after, the little rabbit suddenly began to struggle violently, its eyes full of fear and pain. Soon, blood began to flow from its mouth and nose, and its orifices were bleeding. The scene was shocking.
Everyone exclaimed and backed away.
The royal husband looked at the scene in front of him and was shocked. His eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "This...what is going on? We have been drinking just now, why is the wine suddenly poisonous?"
His voice was full of panic and doubt. If Jiang Qingchen or Huang Er had been forced to drink the poisonous wine just now, the consequences would have been disastrous.
He immediately ordered people to catch live rabbits, and fed the wine in front of him and the wine of the concubine to the rabbits. As a result, all the rabbits were fine after drinking alcohol and did not have any abnormal reactions.
This time, everyone was even more confused.
It seems that only Jiang Qingchen's wine has a problem. The wine was poisoned later, so who poisoned it?
The royal husband's eyes fell on the place where the singer was dancing just now.
He recalled the scene when the singer danced with the sword just now, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Was it really him who poisoned me? But why did he want to harm the Ninth Prince's consort? The more the royal husband thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
He recalled the origin of this singer. This singer was awarded to him by the emperor a few years ago, but he never let her dance in front of him.
He was not familiar with this singer and didn't know what her purpose was.
The royal husband's face turned pale, and he felt a palpitation in his heart. If this singer is really the murderer, isn't his palace full of dangers?
He couldn't figure out why this singer suddenly wanted to harm Jiang Qingchen.
Apart from the singer, the only people who had approached the wine glass just now were the attendants and palace servants. However, they are all old people in their own palace, so they should not kill Jiang Qingchen.
The royal husband felt a headache, and he really couldn't figure out the reason.
He looked at Jiang Qingchen and the Ninth Prince, feeling guilty and worried in his heart.
He knew it was his duty to protect them, but now he had put them in such danger.
Jiang Qingchen looked at the scene in front of him and felt a sense of fear in his heart.
She was grateful that she had the ability to discover the poison in the wine in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
She looked at the royal husband, a trace of firmness and determination flashed in her eyes. She knew she had to find out the truth.
Ninth Prince Ye Ruize also had an angry look on his face at this time. He held Jiang Qingchen's hand tightly, his eyes full of worry and anger. He whispered: "Qingchen, are you okay? Don't worry, the emperor will definitely find out the truth and seek justice for you."
Jiang Qingchen nodded, feeling warm in his heart.
With the Ninth Prince by his side, he was not alone.
She took a deep breath, looked at the emperor's husband firmly, and said, "Father, please believe me, I will definitely find out the truth. I will not let anyone hurt us."
The emperor's wife looked at Jiang Qingchen and the Ninth Prince, and couldn't help feeling relieved and moved in his heart. He nodded and ordered to the old palace man beside him, "Take the guards and capture the singer just now."
Dare to openly poison under his nose, this is against the sky. He has always been generous to others, but if someone dares to harm his child, he will never agree.
No matter who is behind this, we must find out clearly. Now in this harem, he is the father in charge of the middle palace. Since his own nephew was deposed, the prince no longer cares about the affairs of the harem.
The palace attendants who followed him quickly came to report, "Father, the royal husband, the singer has run away."
