The upright forensic doctor bumped into the drama prince

"Presumptuous! Calling the empress by her name, Concubine Lan Gui, do you know what crime you should be guilty of?"

An Youlan's expression froze, and then she said very perfunctorily: "Empress, the emperor passed away suddenly, and my concubine was in a state of restlessness. Please forgive me for making a momentary slip of the tongue."

He Mingmei smiled noncommittally, and said: "Concubine Lan Gui, I don't know what you want to make a scene outside Yikun Palace late at night?"

An Youlan looked at He Mingmei provocatively, and said: "Empress Empress, I would like to have a few words with you alone, I wonder if it is possible?"

He Mingmei said in embarrassment: "I am willing, but now this Yikun Palace is surrounded by people ordered by King Ping, so even you, Concubine Lan, can't come in and out freely, let alone this palace."

An Youlan's face froze, and He Mingmei's words hit her sore spots, making her feel ashamed.Her face sank like water, she looked at the guards at the door, and said: "I will see who dares to stop me!"

"If Concubine Lan Gui really has something to do, then come in." After He Mingmei finished speaking, she turned around and left with her people.

Seeing this, An Youlan raised her foot and was about to follow, but was stopped again by the guards at the door.An Youlan's eyes turned cold, she reached out and drew out the guard's saber, and stabbed it. With a sound of "Puff", the saber pierced through the guard's abdomen. The guard looked at An Youlan in horror, and then fell to the ground unwillingly.

Taking out the handkerchief and wiping her hands, An Youlan glanced coldly across the crowd and said, "Whoever dares to stop me, I will kill him!"

An Youlan's ruthlessness stunned the people present, they did not dare to stop them, the guards at the door bowed and stepped aside.Seeing this, An Youlan smiled contemptuously, and walked into Yikun Palace with her head held high.

The guards hurriedly sent the fallen man to the Imperial Hospital, and sent someone to Fu Nanping to report what happened at the gate of Yikun Palace.

In the main hall of Yikun Palace, He Mingmei put down the teacup in her hand, and looked at An Youlan who walked in, a contemptuous smile flashed across her eyes.

An Youlan came to the front of the hall, blessed Fushen very perfunctorily, and said: "The concubine sees the empress."

He Mingmei raised her hand slightly, and said, "Concubine Lan Gui doesn't need to be too polite. I don't know why Concubine Lan Gui came here late at night?"

An Youlan looked at the nanny next to He Mingmei, and said, "Your Majesty, I have a few words that I want to talk to you alone, please turn your back on your mother."

He Mingmei looked at the nanny beside her, and said, "You guys go down first."

The nanny gave An Youlan a wary look, and said with a blessing, "Yes, ma'am."

An Youlan also waved her hand, and the attendants who followed her also bowed and exited the hall.

"Now that there is no one else in the palace, you can speak directly if Concubine Lan Gui has anything to say."

An Youlan looked up at He Mingmei, and said, "He Mingmei, there is no one else here now, so we don't have to pretend anymore, it's better to speak up."

He Mingmei smiled contemptuously, and said, "An Youlan, you've always been the one who's pretending, you're obviously a ruthless man-eating beast in your bones, but you pretend to be a weak and innocent white lotus, and you've been pretending for more than [-] years , I really feel ashamed of myself."

An Youlan's emotions were easily aroused, she looked at He Mingmei angrily, and said: "He Mingmei, we obviously entered the palace at the same time back then, we had similar family backgrounds, and we both had talents, if it wasn't for the Queen Mother, the immortal is your aunt , how could the queen's position fall into your hands."

"So what? Winner and loser, no matter what the reason is, I have held the position of queen for more than [-] years, and you, An Youlan, can only bow and bow to me."

"You!" An Youlan was poked at the sore spot, her complexion became ugly, and then she laughed again, and said: "He Mingmei, so what if you have been a queen for more than twenty years, it's not that you don't have a son by your side. My son is a short-lived ghost, and he took the title of the eldest son for no reason, and he has been dead for more than ten years. Haha, retribution, this is retribution, retribution for you robbing me of being the queen."

He Mingmei's complexion changed, her son Fu Nanheng was the eternal pain in her heart.But soon she calmed down, looked at An Youlan sarcastically, and said, "An Youlan, do you know what King Ping told me just now?"

"Ping'er? He Mingmei, you don't want to drive a wedge between our mother and child."

"Prince Ping said just now that if my palace issues a decree to let him inherit the throne, he will respect me as the queen mother, be filial and obedient to my family all my life, and be a good son of my palace. So An Youlan, even if I don't have a son by my side, you They can only be inferior to me."

Seeing the contempt in He Mingmei's eyes, An Youlan was completely enraged, and said, "Impossible! I am Ping'er's biological mother, it is impossible for him to respect you as the Queen Mother!"

"An Youlan, you can only play tricks. In fact, you are very stupid. Even your own son despises you. He thinks that you can't be the empress dowager and can't help him, so he abandons you and comes to find you. I."

"I'm stupid? Haha, I'm stupid!" An Youlan watched He Mingmei laughing up and down, and stopped after a long while, and said, "He Mingmei, do you know how your short-lived ghost son died?"

He Mingmei's face changed again and again, and said: "You killed Heng'er?"

Seeing He Mingmei's face changed, An Youlan couldn't hide her satisfaction in her eyes, and said, "I don't have to hide it anymore, that's right, Fu Nanheng did die in my hands."

After silently looking at An Youlan for a while, He Mingmei regained her composure, and said, "An Youlan, I know what you're thinking, you just want to make me angry and see me sad to prove your intelligence, it's a pity that you Little tricks, it's useless to me."

"You don't believe me?" The pride in An Youlan's eyes disappeared, her brows frowned, and she said, "In the 11th year of Zhaoming's autumn hunting, I bribed Fu Nanheng's servant to put red xylem in the sachet that Fu Nanheng used to wear." The powder of red xylocarpus can stimulate the viciousness of animals. The horse he was sitting on smelled the smell and went crazy, and he was thrown off the horse, so that he was trampled to death. Afterwards, the servant took advantage of the chaos to change the sachet This way, no one will notice. He Mingmei, do you think this plan is flawless?"

"An Youlan, are you telling the truth?" He Mingmei's eyes burst out with intense hatred.

Seeing this, An Youlan was overjoyed, and said without any scruples: "The matter has come to this point, so I'll tell you all, that servant is none other than Xiao Hai, who was a young eunuch back then."

"Xiao Hai! Good, very good, very good!" Every time He Mingmei said a word, the hatred in her tone became stronger, and she said, "An Youlan, you are really stupid. Now you tell me the truth, don't let me go!" Don't think that I can help you mother and child any more."

An Youlan looked at He Mingmei with disdain, and said, "Help? He Mingmei, you still say I'm stupid, you are the one who is hopelessly stupid. Now the palace is under Ping'er's control, and more than half of the ministers are Ping'er." As a supporter of Er'er, it is best to have your support, if not, it is just a little extra effort, the throne will belong to Ping'er sooner or later, and the position of Queen Mother can only be mine!"

"I see. An Youlan, I really underestimated you. The reason why you did this is to watch me suffer as a victor; and to force Fu Nanping to abandon me so that you can successfully ascend the throne of the Queen Mother." .Your abacus is really clanging."

Seeing that her thoughts were seen through, An Youlan smiled triumphantly, and said: "Yes, that's what I meant. Fu Nanheng is your heart, and I am the one who gouges out your heart. Even if you are greedy Power, endure this hatred, and with Ping'er's temperament, I will definitely not trust you again. Your end is doomed from this moment, and I am the winner."

With the sound of footsteps, Fu Nanping hurried in, looked at An Youlan with a gloomy expression, and said, "Concubine Mother, why don't you rest in Zelan Palace and come to disturb the Empress?"

An Youlan looked at Fu Nanping, and explained: "Ping'er, I just want to ask the Empress to help you, but the Empress seems to have misunderstood me, she said that Fu Nanheng's death was caused by my collusion with Xiao Hai, and the Empress Ning Even if I die, I will not support Ping'er to sit on the throne."

Fu Nanping narrowed his eyes, looked at He Mingmei dangerously, and said, "My mother was so evasive before, but because of this?"

He Mingmei looked at An Youlan who was putting on airs, and then at Fu Nanping who believed it was the real one. She couldn't help laughing, and said: "As expected, she is indeed Concubine Lan. No one can match her poses, even her own son It’s all calculated. Prince Ping, you really disappointed me.”

Fu Nanping turned his head to look at An Youlan, and asked, "Concubine Mother, what does Empress Mother mean by this?"

"Ping'er doesn't believe me?" An Youlan looked at Fu Nanping's eyes flushed with sadness, and said, "Ping'er, if I hadn't provoked the Queen on purpose, how could she tell the truth without hesitation? She already knew that Fu Nanheng was kidnapped. I was harmed by..."

"Mother Concubine!" Fu Nanping hastily interrupted An Youlan's words, but it was of no avail. He was annoyed in his heart, and said, "Mother Concubine, why are you so stupid? We know that the overall situation is uncertain now, and the most taboo thing is unexpected events? Aren't you right now?" You are helping me, but hurting me!"

"Ping'er, you are my only son, how could I harm you? You hurt my heart too much by saying that."

An Youlan had a weeping expression, if it was another man, she might feel pity for her, but it's a pity that the opposite is her son, and Fu Nanping knows her very well.

Fu Nanping was agitated, he should have been stronger before, and directly ordered An Youlan to be placed under house arrest in the palace.The matter has come to this point, regretting is useless, he ignored An Youlan, turned to look at He Mingmei, and said: "The queen really doesn't plan to help me?"

"At this point, even if Bengong promised to help you, you wouldn't believe it. What's more, Bengong once swore that if I knew who killed Heng'er, I would definitely tear her to pieces." He Mingmei didn't hide the hatred in her eyes at all.

Fu Nanping sighed regretfully, and said, "Why is this so embarrassing? You can obviously enjoy the glory of your life and be the most honorable woman in Fu country, but now you are going on a road of no return for a dead person. It's really shameful." wise."

"I am the mother of a country, and my mother has honored the world for more than [-] years. Even your father would not dare to do anything to me, let alone you." He Mingmei said confidently.

"Really?" Fu Nanping smiled contemptuously, and said: "I think the queen mother is confused, and she hasn't figured out the current situation. The entire palace is under my control. I can do whatever I want. Someone will come tomorrow morning." It was discovered that the queen mother could not accept her father's departure, and she died in front of her father's spirit."

"You want to kill me?" He Mingmei looked at Fu Nanping and said in a cold voice, "Do you know that murdering the queen is equivalent to treason?"

"The imperial palace is under my control now, whoever dares to say what I say. Queen Mother, as long as you cooperate obediently, I promise to take good care of the two royal sisters and not embarrass them." Fu Nanping is clear that He Ming's heart can be affected now. , there are only two daughters under her knees.

"Fu Nanping, do you really think that controlling the imperial palace is equivalent to controlling the world?" He Mingmei sneered and said, "It's so stupid!"

Fu Nanping's face darkened, and he said: "Now more than half of the ministers in the court support my succession, and the Imperial Forest Army is also under my control. Even if my mother opposes it, it will not help."

"The Royal Forest Army is in your hands? Do you really think that Lin Wan'er, who has been ruined by you, will give up her heart to you again just because of your sweet words? Ridiculous!"

Fu Nanping's complexion suddenly changed when he heard the words, and said, "What do you mean by that?"

He Mingmei looked at Fu Nanping and smiled contemptuously, and said, "Fu Nanping, you are just like your mother and concubine, you can only put on airs and play tricks, which is embarrassing to use. If Fu Guo is handed over to you, then Fu Guo's century-old foundation will be destroyed." , sooner or later it will be defeated by you."

Fu Nanping grew up surrounded by praises since he was a child. Men envied him for his outstanding talent, and women wanted to marry him wholeheartedly. No one ever said that he was too embarrassing. He Mingmei's contempt completely angered him.Fu Nanping said gloomyly: "The empress has a deep relationship with the father and his wife, and cannot accept the father's departure, so she voluntarily died for the funeral. Come and serve the empress on the road."

He Mingmei shouted sharply: "Fu Nanping, how dare you!"

"Why don't I dare!" Fu Nanping said confidently.

An Youlan also looked at He Mingmei with a triumphant smile in her eyes.

The guards around Fu Nanping rushed towards He Mingmei, but before they arrived, they were pierced by long arrows, and fell to the ground with two "plops".

The complacency on An Youlan's face disappeared, and she looked behind He Mingmei. The long arrow was clearly shot from behind his phoenix chair.

Fu Nanping's expression froze, he quickly backed away, and shouted in a cold voice: "Come here. The empress is insane and hurts people wantonly, take her down!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Thump, thump, thump", footsteps sounded, and dozens of imperial forest soldiers in armor and holding weapons poured in from outside the hall.

He Mingmei'an sat on the phoenix chair, looked at the people walking in from outside the hall, and said, "Can you all see the true face of King Ping?"

Hearing this, Fu Nanping turned around suddenly, and found that the cabinet ministers, six ministers, and generals were all behind him, and of course his deadly enemy Fu Nanling was also indispensable.He looked at the crowd in shock and said, "You...how are you here?"

"Of course I invited them to come here to see your true face, Prince Ping." He Mingmei paused, and then said: "Concubine Lan personally admitted that she bribed Xiao Hai to murder Heng'er, and everyone must have heard it clearly. .Come here, bring Xiao Hai to this palace.”

"Yes, my subordinate obeys the order." The Imperial Forest Army in the hall bowed to accept the order.

Fu Nanping said in disbelief: "Impossible, the palace has been sealed off, how could you be here late at night?"

Sun Pengchun took a step forward and said with a smile: "Although the lower officials have handed over their military power, the Imperial Forest Army is still under the control of the lower officials. It is not difficult to send a few people in."

"Sun Pengchun, how dare you betray me!" Fu Nanping looked at Sun Pengchun angrily.

"Your Highness, the officials are only loyal to the Emperor and have never followed His Highness, so how can you say betrayal?" Sun Pengchun looked directly at Fu Nanping, without showing any respect, and said, "For the sake of the throne, King Ping did not hesitate to frame his wife and kill his beloved wife. Concubine, and almost brought her own child into trouble, how can a person of such character inherit the great position."

Fu Nanping quibbled: "All of this was done by Lin Wan'er, so what has it to do with me?"

"The red xylocarpus is a common trick used by your mother and child to harm others. Wan'er is just your scapegoat, in order to force Wan'er to give up the position of princess and save it for marriage. It's a pity that Princess Yaohua returned to Linguo, and the marriage was in vain. , you turned your attention to Wan'er again, trying to ease the relationship with Sun and Lin. Now that all the crimes have been blamed on Wan'er, such behavior is simply shameful!" Sun Pengchun said harshly, without leaving any traces feelings.

Being contradicted like this, Fu Nanping was ashamed and said angrily: "Sun Pengchun, you are so brave to talk to me like this!"

Fu Nanling looked at Fu Nanping sneeringly, and said: "Second Brother, just after your father died, you blocked the palace and intended to murder your mother and usurp the throne. Do you know that what you have done this time is tantamount to treason."

"Father, he prefers me to be the crown prince. This is a well-known fact. It's just that you have been obstructing it, so Father was not able to issue a will. Fu Nanling, today's all this must be planned by you behind the scenes, and you really want to rebel. It's you!"

Fu Nanling smiled, and said unhurriedly: "At the beginning, the father wanted the second brother to be the crown prince, but the second brother was too ambitious, not only plotting against the brothers, but also plotting against the father, and even disregarding the life and death of the people. An Wei, he only cares about developing his own power. The behavior of the second emperor brother has disappointed the father to the extreme, so naturally he will not issue an edict to let you be the crown prince."

Fu Nanping retorted excitedly: "You are full of nonsense! Fu Nanling, you slander me so much because you want to inherit the throne. It's a pity that you are not only short-lived, but also a broken sleeve. If the Fu Kingdom is handed over to you, you are destined to be ruined." .”

Fu Nanling sneered, and said, "Slander? The deaths of Concubine Lin Gui and Jiu Huangdi, Li Lin'er, Gao Meier, and the tens of thousands of people in the case of Liaoyuan, which one is wronged you?"

"The deaths of Concubine Lin and the Nine Emperors were caused by Qiuniang and Li Guangli, Li Lin'er was killed by Lin Wan'er, Gao Meier was caused by Gao's servants, and the case of Liaoyuan was caused by Gao Jin and Sun Yi, so what has it to do with me? In addition, there is no excuse for the crime, all of this is nothing more than you imposed on me." Although Fu Nanping sometimes gets confused, his mind is very strong, even in the face of such a dangerous situation, he can still answer fluently and defend himself.

"Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about the case of Liaoyuan. Does the second emperor think that Gao Jin and Sun Yi have been raped and killed, so you can sit back and relax?"

Fu Nanping looked at Fu Nanling silently, thinking about various possibilities in his mind.

Fu Nanling didn't hold back, and ordered directly: "Come on, bring him here."

"Yes, my lord."

All eyes were turned to the outside of the hall, only to see Lu Jiu and Liu Xi walking from outside the hall, and walking in the middle of them was a man with a scar on his face, from left eye to right mouth corner, slashing diagonally. over the entire face.

Lu Jiu bowed and said, "Master, I have brought you here."

The man looked at Fu Nanping with hatred in his eyes, walked to the front of the hall and bowed to salute: "Gao Wei, the criminal, sees the Empress, His Highness the King of Mausoleum, and all your lords."

"You are Gao Wei?" Pingnan Wang Li Lin looked at Gao Wei in surprise.

"Back to the lord, the criminal is Gao Wei." Although Gao Wei was answering Li Lin, he kept looking at Fu Nanping, and seeing Fu Nanping's expression changed, he couldn't help but smiled and said: "Your Highness Prince Ping must have never thought that I was still alive. "

Old Lin Xiaoxu of Lin Ge approached Li Lin and asked aloud, "My lord, who is this Gao Wei?"

Li Lin explained in a low voice: "Gao Wei is Gao Jin's second son in name, but in fact he is Zhang Hanchen's parent-son, and he is the only person in this world who knows the mastermind behind the Liaoyuan case."

Lin Xiaoxu nodded and said, "I see."

Fu Nanling said lightly: "Gao Wei, come and identify who is behind the Liaoyuan case?"

"My lord, the behind-the-scenes mastermind of the Liaoyuan case is King Ping above this hall. Whether it is Gao Jin or Sun Yi, they are just pawns of King Ping. The army and the arsenal in the belly of Cangshan Mountain, It was also built under the behest of King Ping." Gao Wei's eyes were always fixed on Fu Nanping, like a wild beast staring at its prey.

"Nonsense!" Fu Nanping tried his best to defend himself: "Gao Wei is a wanted death row prisoner. He must have been used by Fu Nanling to frame this king in order to survive. You must not believe it."

"Framed? Empress, Your Majesty the King of Mausoleum, my lords, criminals, here is the letter written by Sun Yi as evidence, which proves that King Ping is the mastermind behind the Liaoyuan case." Gao Wei took out a letter from his pocket. , with his hands on his head.

Lu Jiu took the letter and came to the front of the hall and presented it to He Mingmei with both hands. After He Mingmei read it, he handed it to Fu Nanling.Fu Nanling unfolded the letter, looked at it symbolically, and then handed it to Li Lin and others for circulation. Finally, the secret letter returned to Fu Nanling again.He raised the secret letter in his hand and said: "Second Brother, this secret letter not only has the title, but also the signature and seal, what else do you want to say?"

"This secret letter is a forgery, who knows that the little Li beside you is the best at this skill." Fu Nanping looked at Fu Nanling with undisguised satisfaction in his eyes.

"Second Brother, you are still quibbling up to this point, you are really unrepentant! Come, please Eunuch Pang."

Pang Li came in from outside the hall, came to the front, bowed and said: "Slave Pang Li, I have seen the empress, Your Highness Mausoleum, my lords."

"Eunuch Pang is the emperor's personal servant, and the emperor entrusts him with many matters, including the follow-up of the Liaoyuan case. Now let Eunuch Pang tell you what the emperor found out three years ago."

Pang Li responded, pondered for a while, and said: "Three years ago, I had the honor to participate in the investigation of the Liaoyuan case, and under the wise leadership of His Royal Highness King Ling..."

Fu Nanling interrupted Pang Li's words, and said, "Get to the point directly."

Pang Li responded with some embarrassment, and then said: "After Gao Jin was arrested, Sun Yi sent two groups of people to the capital to report the news. The first group was Gao Wei, but he was just a bait set by Sun Yi to attract everyone's attention. On him, to cover the second group of troops who actually reported the news, that is, the troops led by Sun Yi's eldest son Sun Huan. They detoured to Pingcheng, headed for the capital, and entered the Prince Ping's mansion..."

Fu Nanping interrupted Pang Li's words and said, "This is just your side story, do you have evidence?"

Pang Li replied calmly: "Yes. Xiao Qianzi, the servant of Prince Ping's mansion, is the emperor's eyeliner in Prince Ping's mansion, he can prove it."

"Come here, bring some money."

As soon as Fu Nanling's words fell, an internal servant walked in from outside the hall, came to the front of the hall and knelt down on the ground, saying: "Slave Xiao Qianzi, I have seen the empress, Your Highness King Ling, all my lords."

Fu Nanling asked aloud: "Little Qianzi, is it true that Sun Huan took people to Prince Ping's Mansion three years ago?"

"Return to the prince, this matter is true, the servant saw it with his own eyes, and has reported it to the emperor."

"Have you met Sun Huan before?"

"Go back to the prince, the slave has never seen it before."

"Then why did you conclude that it was Sun Huan?"

"Going back to the prince, Sun Huan was silenced. It was the body handled by the servant. There was a token on his body. When the servant reported to the emperor, he had handed in the token together."

Pang Li took out a token from his pocket, handed it to Xiao Qianzi, and asked, "But this one?"

Xiaoqianzi looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "Yes, this is it."

Pang Li took out another secret letter from his pocket, presented it to He Mingmei with both hands, and said, "Empress, this is the secret letter reported by Xiao Qianzi at that time."

He Mingmei took the secret letter, unfolded it, looked at it, and said, "Prince Ping, what else do you have to say now?"
