Doctor, you are so cold

Chapter 35 [Case 3] The Death of Zhaoyi

As the saying goes, it is better to be famous than to meet, and it is better not to be seen than to be seen.

For Yan Yunqi, there are some people he never wants to see in his life.

Not only did he not want to see him, he also wanted to hide far away.

At the thought of seeing this person, he felt bored, irritable, and his life was meaningless.

For example, the Queen Mother.

As soon as Yan Yunqi woke up in the morning, he received a message from the eunuch of Yishou Palace, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see him.

A few swear words turned in his heart for a long time, and he respectfully agreed.

As soon as the palace man left, his face immediately became gloomy.

The thing he hates the most is the political struggle in the court.

According to his understanding, as long as the queen mother is involved, things will never be simple.

This woman is undoubtedly an ambitious person.

He can almost guess how ambitious he is.

This man, one of the types he avoids most, lives for politics and power.

Helplessly, his current identity is someone else's son.

The mother is kind and the son is filial, these superficial efforts are naturally still to be done.

Of course, he was not his own son, and the Queen Mother did not have any biological children. Even Yan Yunze was the son she secretly killed other concubines and snatched from others to raise him.

Yan Yunqi naturally didn't know about this matter.

Yan Yunze didn't know about it until he was 19 years old.

Just because he knew it, he couldn't bear it when he was young and energetic, that caused the first huge crisis in his life.

Back then, he got through this crisis.

The price, but let him regret it.

Of course, these things are not here to explain.

What I have to explain now is Yan Yunqi's unwillingness to meet the Queen Mother.

Yan Yunqi buried his face in Ning Wuxin's arms, let him comfort himself for a while, and told him to go to the emperor to find evidence as soon as possible, and then followed the eunuch to the Yishou Palace where the queen mother lived.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw a woman in purple dress about 50 years old sitting on a phoenix chair with a bright yellow cushion, her head was full of emerald jewels, her face was thin, but her eyes were piercing.

He was blind to begin with, so naturally he didn't need to make such an expression of "You make me so amazing, Queen Mother".

So, he bowed his head, knelt on the ground, and saluted.

He looked respectful, "My son entered the palace a few days ago, and I just wanted to greet my mother, I don't want the palace people to say that my mother is not in good health, I don't know if my mother is better these few days?"

The people above drank tea slowly, and said in a very cold voice, "The emperor got up and gave me a seat."

Good guy, I'm not even interested in pretending to be a loving mother and filial son with a smile.

This queen mother is probably a female man, and she walks in the majestic school.

Yan Yunqi got up quickly, sat down obediently, "Thank you mother for giving me the seat."

The queen mother said slowly, "I heard people say that this time the emperor's personality has changed a lot, and he has learned how to break the prison. Seeing him today is really impressive."

Yan Yunqi said hastily, "My mother won't be honored, but my son can't afford it."

"The case of Concubine Liu Zhaoyi, how did you investigate it?"

Finally, cut to the chase.

This is the purpose of finding him today.

Yan Yunqi touched his wrist, he was quite good at solving cases.

"My son is about to mention this matter to the emperor. My son plans to call all the people involved in this case together this afternoon and explain the case clearly."

The people above didn't speak for a long time, and said slowly, "The Ai family thinks that Concubine Qin is the murderer. She bought Hongyu and Zhou Lan to commit this case, so it's only logical, what doubts do you have?"

Yan Yunqi said, "After many investigations in the past few days, I have found some doubts and evidence. Why don't we explain it together in the afternoon and let the emperor and the queen mother decide who is the murderer."

The person above snorted coldly, "Since that's the case, let's call everyone to Yishou Palace in Weishi. Aijia wants to see who else is so bold as to kill the royal heir besides Concubine Qin. "

Yan Yunqi said hastily, "My son obeys the order, and my son will go to prepare now."

After finishing speaking, he quickly knelt down and saluted, and followed the eunuch out of Yishou Palace.

Yan Yunqi was anxious, there were less than two hours left.

But you must find the key evidence.

He returned to Sihua Palace, sat quietly on the bed, and went through all the case in his mind again.

At the same time, after listening to Ning Wuxin's report, Yan Yunze hurriedly asked people to search around the palace.

The whole palace was in a hurry.

There is never enough time when you need it most.

It was already noon, but the key evidence was still not found, but there was good news from Liu Yizhao.

Yan Yunqi was overjoyed.

With this evidence, it can be resisted for a while.

He ordered people to continue searching, and at the same time sent people to issue a notice, ordering all the eunuchs, court ladies, royal chefs and guards involved in this case to wait in Yishou Palace at the end of the day.

Whether the case can be resolved satisfactorily depends on this afternoon.

——————————————————————————————————————————

Before the time came, everyone, including the emperor himself, had already arrived at Yishou Palace.

At the door, Ning Wuxin whispered to Yan Yunqi, "I still haven't found it."

Yan Yunqi was even more anxious.

Without such evidence, it may not be easy to force the murderer to confess.

He said softly, "Even in every corner, I have to look for it."

Ning Wuxin frowned slightly, and hurriedly ordered Liu Yizhao to supervise him personally, and make sure to find it.

Yan Yunqi looked at the sky, "It's time to go in."

Up to now, we can only see the tricks.

Ning Wuxin nodded, and hurriedly helped him into Yishou Palace.

When I came to the main hall, I saw all the eunuchs, maids, chefs and guards involved in the case stood aside.

The emperor sat next to the queen mother and was talking to the queen mother with a smile.

This time, she was very kind.

The queen was still cold and expressionless, and the other three concubines were sitting beside each other with smiles on their faces, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Ning Wuxin quickly supported Yan Yunqi to kneel down.

I only heard a voice that was not angry but mighty said, "The emperor's body is flat, and I give you a seat."

Yan Yunqi quickly stood up and sat down.

Ning Wuxin, a commoner, got up and stood with the eunuchs and maids.

The queen mother took a sip of tea and said slowly, "My lord, everyone is here, you can start now."

Yan Yunqi quickly stood up, "I obey."

——————————————————————————————————————

Yan Yunqi cleared his throat, "In this case, a total of three people died, Concubine Ming, Concubine Liu Zhaoyi, and Concubine Qin's attendant Chang Feng. The case of Concubine Ming is the most incredible, but the other two cases are easier To explain, why not start with those two cases. I don't know what the queen mother wants?"

The Queen Mother took a sip of tea, "Speak."

Yan Yunqi said, "My son is blind, and it's inconvenient to explain this part. It's better to let Erchen's assistant, the genius doctor Ning Wuxin, explain it for me."

After speaking, he made a gesture, and Ning Wuxin immediately walked up with a shelf.

Ning Wuxin said, "In the case of Liu Zhaoyi, Zhou Lan scooped up the decoction prepared by the imperial dining room from the cauldron, added a little sugar according to Zhaoyi's taste, and then sent it to Zhaoyi herself, and watched her drink it with her own eyes. This Zhou Lan was entirely responsible for the process. When we asked, he didn't understand why the soup was poisonous."

Yan Yunze said, "That's true. Zhou Lan didn't poison himself, how did he do it?"

Ning Wuxin bowed her head slightly, and raised her airs, "Actually, this poison was released through this airs."

Everyone immediately looked at the shelf.

There are three porcelain vases on this shelf, one yellow, one black and one blue.

The white and black porcelain vases are very delicate and not too big.

The blue one is half the size of the other two bottles.

Ning Wuxin said, "Every lady in the palace has different tastes. On this shelf, the yellow bottle is filled with pepper powder, the black bottle is filled with chili powder, and the blue bottle is filled with sugar. The eunuchs have been in the imperial dining room for a long time, yes Empresses are very familiar with their tastes. When they send soups and medicines, they add appropriate seasonings according to the tastes of empresses."

Yan Yunze nodded, "Continue."

"Most of the eunuchs are illiterate, and there are only three bottles with different colors. It is easy to remember what is inside, and there is no mark. When the eunuchs want to add sugar, they all take it from the blue bottle. "

Concubine Qin said, "I also added sugar to my decoction that day, I'm afraid it was also taken from this blue bottle?"

Ning Wuxin nodded, "Indeed."

He continued to explain, "The eunuchs in the imperial dining room are familiar with this frame, so there is no problem at all. However, there is a special person in this imperial dining room. This person is Zhou Lan."

Concubine Ren couldn't help but said, "I don't know what's so special about Zhou Lan?"

Ning Wuxin paused and replied, "This Zhou Lan, he has some problems identifying colors."

The queen mother gave Ning Wuxin a faint glance.

Ning Wuxin continued, "When Zhou Lan looks at things, he can only see the shade of the color, but he can't tell what color it is. The darker the color, it is dark gray in Zhou Lan's eyes. The lighter color is dark gray in Zhou Lan's eyes. The inside is light gray. That is to say, in Zhou Lan's eyes, the yellow has become light gray, the black is still black, and the blue has become dark gray in Zhou Lan's eyes."

The queen frowned, "Syndrome of color discrimination is really rare, I'm afraid Zhou Lan concealed this matter in order to stay in the imperial dining room, there are also some."

Ning Wuxin nodded, "After we asked, several father-in-laws did find that Zhou Lan had some problems with recognizing colors, but they didn't think about it."

As he spoke, he paused, "However, I'm afraid there is only one person who knows about this matter."

Yan Yunze said, "Who is it?"

Yan Yunqi hurriedly said, "Please, the emperor, the empress dowager and all the empresses, please be calm. This person will definitely speak out later. It is better to wait for Doctor Ning to explain it before explaining it."

Ning Wuxin said, "This person is one of the deputy managers of the imperial dining room. On the day of Liu Zhaoyi's case, he was one of the father-in-laws on duty. I'm afraid Zhou Lan was assigned by him to deliver soup to Zhaoyi. Moreover, After our investigation, we also found that Zhou Lan was brought into the imperial dining room by this person."

Concubine Jing said, "You mean, this person already knew that Zhou Lan had this color discrimination disease?"

Ning Wuxin nodded, "That's right. I'm afraid that this person gave Zhou Lan a lot of convenience and advice, helped him conceal his situation, and made Zhou Lan feel more grateful and trustful of him. Therefore, on the day of the incident, Zhou Lan didn't tell the truth about the incident at all. Think about that person."

Concubine Jing asked again, "Even so, how could he poison it?"

Ning Wuxin didn't speak, and put a green bottle on the shelf, right next to the blue bottle.

This green bottle is the same size as the blue bottle, only the color is different.

Ning Wuxin said, "We found a few bottles like this in the imperial dining room. There are green, purple and other colors. That morning, if there was a green bottle next to the blue bottle, the situation would be completely different."

All the people were silent, waiting for him to continue.

"If this bottle is put up, the other eunuchs will be able to distinguish it clearly, but Zhou Lan can't. This kind of bottle with similar shades of color is gray in Zhou Lan's eyes. In this way, when taking sugar When he did, he hesitated."

Yan Yunze said, "That green bottle contains arsenic."

Ning Wuxin said, "The green bottle is probably arsenic mixed with sugar. Zhou Lan hesitated, so he naturally gave that person a good chance. At this time, as long as he points with his finger, Zhou Lan will definitely listen to him." If so, take sugar from the green bottle."

Yan Yunze nodded, "In this way, the other eunuchs will naturally still get sugar from the blue bottle, but it's different from Zhou Lan's."

"That's right, poison, maybe that's how it got in."

No one in the room spoke, only the queen said slowly, "But, these... are all guesswork, there is no evidence."

Ning Wuxin sighed, "What the empress said is very true. What I demonstrated just now is just a method, although it is feasible, but there is no evidence. However, this incident gave the prince a breakthrough point and a suspect. We continued to investigate along this clue, and finally found the answer to Chang Feng's death."

Concubine Qin anxiously said, "What happened to Chang Feng's death?"
