Chapter 147 Fake death becomes real death
Chapter 147 Fake death becomes real death
Mrs. Xu looked at Bai Zhaozhao in horror, as if she was a monster.
Wang Jinnian blocked Madam Xu's sight and continued, "My subordinates just reported that the time when Madam Xu went to find General Xu and the time when she left the backyard of the palace did not match at all, so what Princess Zhaohe said was true. Madam Xu should have gone to find someone else first, and then returned to the guest room to find Miss Xu, right? It's not that there was nothing in the guest room, but a handkerchief that Madam Xu dropped was found, and there were traces of poison on it! So Madam Xu poisoned her own daughter herself, right?"
Mrs. Xu was shocked and said, "No, it's not..."
"It's not something?" Wang Jinnian quickly retorted, and stepped forward and asked, "If it's not poison? Then what is it? What is on that handkerchief?"
Mrs. Xu collapsed to the ground. She didn't understand why Wang Jinnian acted as if he had seen it with his own eyes: "You're talking nonsense. I didn't leave the handkerchief behind at all!"
Wang Jinnian regained his composure: "The handkerchief was not left behind, so it must have been on Madam Xu? So Madam Xu really went to the guest room and planned something else with Miss Xu, but something unexpected happened and Miss Xu really died."
Mrs. Xu widened her eyes, unable to believe that Wang Jinnian had deceived her without any evidence!
Bai Zhaozhao also looked at Wang Jinnian with admiration. He could even guess the evidence like the handkerchief and reveal it!
General Xu looked unhappy. He glanced at his foolish wife and lowered his attitude: "Your Majesty, this is all my fault. Please, Your Majesty, for your sake, let this go!"
Bai Zhaozhao glanced at Su Ling and pretended to be surprised and asked, "General Xu, don't you want to know the truth? What if a dog goes out and bites people randomly? The suspect now is your wife!"
General Xu's face was gloomy. Before he could say anything, Madam Xu spoke first: "It wasn't me! It was that man. He gave me the medicine! He said it was a fake death medicine! It was fake death! Master, quickly carry Zhen'er home. If it's too late, she will really die!"
Almost instantly, Bai Zhaozhao knew the truth: "Who is it? Who gave you the fake death drug? How are you going to frame the palace?"
Everyone was surprised and looked at the body outside. Was Xu Zhen not dead?
Wang Jinnian sighed, "Madam Xu, your daughter is really dead! This kind of poison kills instantly, there is no such thing as an accident!"
Mrs. Xu didn't believe it. She ran to Xu Zhen's body in panic, "No, it's impossible, Zhen'er! Zhen'er! Wake up! Zhen'er!"
General Xu seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He walked up to Madam Xu and asked, "Who gave you the fake death drug? Tell me!"
Madam Xu replied blankly: "Yes... yes..."
Then she fainted.
Wang Jinnian glanced at Bai Zhaozhao and said to General Xu, "It seems that Madam was deceived and the fake poison became real poison."
In the end, General Xu took his wife and daughter away, saying only that he would come back another day to apologize. Wang Jinnian glanced at Bai Zhaozhao and left.
Princess An had Su Ling sent back to Prince Rui's Mansion, and also sent a nanny to mock Princess Rui, which made Princess Rui so angry that she smashed the entire set of tea sets.
While Tang Yanyan was arranging the finishing touches for the banquet, she was also having someone customize the wooden sign.
Prince An hurried to the study. He didn't understand why the secret guard in the guest room had an accident and no one was arranged properly.
If Bai Zhaozhao knew Prince An’s doubts, he would definitely sigh and say, this is the hero’s destiny!
That's right, Bai Zhaozhao was sure that the person who gave Madam Xu the so-called fake death medicine was Cheng Jiayu. Cheng Jiayu must have known about Xu Zhen's outrageous words, so he reacted quickly, went to see Madam Xu, and designed to make Xu Zhen die in Prince An's Mansion.
Just when Shizi An felt relieved, Bai Zhaozhao took him and Bai Lin to a woodshed.
"Bang!" After the door was kicked open, a maid came into view.
"Who is she?" Bai Lin was a little confused. What was his sister doing?
Prince An looked at the maid for a few times and said, "Zhao Zhao, she is not from the palace. Could she be a maidservant of some noble lady?"
Bai Zhaozhao said seriously: "Yes, I did go to the guest room before, but I didn't go to find Xu Zhen. I found the maid next to Miss Qin."
"Miss Qin?" Bai Lin had no impression at all, but soon realized that Bai Zhaozhao was talking about Qin Sha, the granddaughter of Lord Qin.
"The reason why I went to change clothes next to Xu Zhen's was because a rash girl spilled tea on me, and then the girl said she would get me clothes and asked me to wait in the guest room, but I refused.
Later, Xu Zhen went to the guest room to rest. The guests were all praising Xiao Ping'er. I saw that girl again and felt suspicious so I followed her. During this time, I met Su Ling. Later, I found the girl behind the guest room. Unexpectedly, she was holding a dress and returning it to the maid from the Qin family!
The maid turned and ran away when she saw me. I chased her and beat her up, then brought her here. Then I found that the dress was fumigated with incense, and it was a special aphrodisiac incense!"
Prince An was shocked: "Are you saying this was designed by Miss Qin?"
Bai Lin said in a deep voice: "Maybe not. I think it was the Qin Party who sent this maid, hoping that she would seize the opportunity and destroy Zhao Zhao. In this way, the relationship between Prince An's Mansion and the Bai family will be broken."
Bai Zhaozhao nodded: "That's right."
Bai Lin glanced at Prince An and snorted coldly: "It seems that the people in the palace need to investigate carefully. How can they be bribed at any time?"
Prince An was slightly embarrassed: "Brother Bai is right. There are too many servants in the palace. We should investigate thoroughly. Zhao Zhao, leave this maid to me!"
"Okay." Bai Zhaozhao responded, and then said to Bai Lin: "Brother, then you must be careful in the court."
Bai Lin said with a gloomy face: "I know."
No one knew how Bai Lin operated, but on the second day in the court, several imperial censors criticized General Xu harshly, saying that he failed to manage his household properly and did not teach his daughter well.
After Emperor Yongkang learned about this from Wang Jinnian, he directly fined all the officials of the Xu family for one year's salary, especially General Xu. He wanted to demote him by one level, but Concubine Xu pulled him over and cried to him, so he gave up the plan.
In the evening, Bai Zhaozhao appeared in the yard of Wang Jinnian's house as usual.
What I didn’t expect was that He Anyu was also there.
"Uncle Master, how is it going? Has Madam Xu explained?"
Wang Jinnian shook his head: "Mrs. Xu lost her memory after she woke up and didn't recognize anyone."
Bai Zhaozhao: ...
He Anyu seemed to be thinking: "Could it be that they are pretending? There is no one behind the scenes, and Madam Xu just wrote and performed it herself?"
Bai Zhaozhao said firmly: "Impossible!"
Wang Jinnian looked at Bai Zhaozhao: "Why are you so sure?"
Bai Zhaozhao thought about it and decided to tell the truth: "I suspect it was Cheng Jiayu who did it. He planned to kill Xu Zhen. After all, Xu Zhen was already useless when he made those wild remarks."
