Quick Wear: After becoming cannon fodder, she became so cool

Chapter 418 The Ancient Mother-In-Law Who Was Cannon Fodder (54)

The emperor really didn't expect Concubine Hui to poison himself.

Apart from being dissatisfied with the Fourth Prince and Concubine Hui's natal family, Concubine Hui has always been gentle and tender in his perception, who knows that she is a poisonous woman behind her back.

The royal family has secret guards who specialize in interrogation, so even if Concubine Hui didn't spit out at first, she was pried open in the end.

But she didn't say that it was the poison sent by the fourth prince, but put all the blame on herself.

He said that he poisoned the emperor because he wanted to avenge his natal family.

The emperor naturally did not believe this.

Qingyou pretends to be Qingfeng Daoist and gives the emperor a few medicines, which will temporarily paralyze the brain and make people tell the truth.

After the emperor asked the hidden guard to be swallowed by Concubine Hui, she also pulled out the fourth prince and Shi Lingqiao.

Looking at the record of the interrogation by the dark guards, the emperor was stunned.

He looked at Qingyou and asked, "Master Daoist, is there still such a thing as soul possession in this world?"

As soon as Qingyou heard him ask this question, she guessed that Concubine Hui also knew that Shi Lingqiao was her niece of her natal family, and it was probably the Fourth Prince who told her about it.

After taking the medicine she prepared, she couldn't help speaking out when asked by the dark guard.

Qingyou looked at the emperor and replied: "It is true that there will be soul possession, but it rarely happens."

"This is against the laws of heaven and earth, so it is rare to see it once in a hundred years."

If it wasn't for the turmoil in this small world, Shi Lingqiao wouldn't have had the chance to be reborn as someone else.

When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

If there are really many incidents of soul possession, it will be a mess, which is very bad for the court.

It can be seen that this kind of soul-possessed person has mysterious means.

If it wasn't for Daoist Qingfeng, the poison in him and the prince would not be found out at all.

That Shi Lingqiao is not simple.

He thought for a while and asked: "Master Taoist, can you tell who is the person who has left the soul?"

Qingyou nodded and said: "As long as you see me, the poor can tell."

So the emperor entrusted her to help see if there was something wrong with Shi Lingqiao.

I have found an excuse to go to the Duke's Mansion, and go to see a doctor for the eldest princess.

Naturally, Qingyou would not refuse, and went to the Duke's Mansion the next day.

Huo Xingchen took Qingyou, who was disguised as Taoist Master Qingfeng, directly to Huo Jiwen's yard.

Now Huo Jiwen and Shi Lingqiao are drinking tea and talking.

A few days passed, and there was no movement from the parents, and both of them relaxed a lot.

Suddenly seeing his father walking in with a priest, Huo Jiwen was startled.

Immediately stood up with Shi Lingqiao and saluted.

Huo Xingchen ignored the two of them, and said to Qingyou: "Please ask the Taoist priest to see if there is any poison that harms my wife hidden here."

Hearing what he said, Huo Jiwen and Shi Lingqiao's hearts skipped a beat.

Shi Lingqiao quickly gave Huo Jiwen a look.

Can't let people search the yard, she purposely built a darkroom in a guest room in the yard before, where some medicinal materials and prepared medicines were kept.

It would be a big trouble if found out.

Others may not be able to find it, but I heard that this Taoist Master Qingfeng is very magical.

When Huo Jiwen received the look in her hand, he felt a bad premonition in his heart.

Shi Lingqiao must have put something that shouldn't be in their yard.

So he looked at his father in fear and said, "Father, what do you mean?"

He suppressed his guilty conscience, and instead made an angry expression of being hurt, "You suspect that I poisoned my mother? How could I do such a thing."

Huo Xingchen glanced at him, and said coldly: "Since you haven't done it, why are you afraid of searching?"

"Isn't this just a sign of a guilty conscience?"

He didn't bother to chat with Huo Jiwen, so he ordered his personal guard, "Take care of the young master and this woman, and don't allow them to leave this room."

The personal guard only listened to the Duke, "Yes!"

Seeing this, Huo Jiwen couldn't help feeling flustered, and made a fuss on purpose.

But Huo Xingchen and Qingyou had left the house to search.

Huo Jiwen and Shi Lingqiao were so anxious that they wanted to go out of the house to hide, but they were blocked and watched by the guards, so they couldn't go out at all, let alone discuss what to do next.

Qingyou stared at Shi Lingqiao for a long time, so she naturally knew the secret of Shi Lingqiao in this courtyard.

Soon he took people to find the darkroom, and packed all the medicinal materials and prepared medicines in it.

Then she picked up two of the bottles, opened them and smelled them, and said to Long Wei, who was sent by the emperor, "There is a problem with these two bottles."

"This bottle is the poison in Madam's body."

She didn't say anything about the other bottle, but everyone knew that it was the poison that was put on the emperor.

Then she found two more types of incense, "This one is the same as what Donggong found."

Huo Xingchen pretended to look ugly and said: "That scoundrel is simply a beast, he even killed his own mother."

"Master Dao, give me the poison in your hand, I'm going to take care of some housework, take everything else into the palace."

These evidences, of course, must be sent to the palace to the emperor.

Qingyou nodded, "Okay!"

She brought Longwei back to the palace, while Huo Xingchen went to the main room.

Seeing the medicine bottle in his hand, Shi Lingqiao's expression changed.

Seeing her like this, Huo Jiwen panicked even more.

Huo Xingchen scolded directly, "You bastard, you actually teamed up with this woman to poison your mother. Your mother has treated you so well all these years, you really fed the dog."

Huo Jiwen immediately quibbled, "Father, I didn't, how could I poison mother, you misunderstood."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Huo Xingchen.

He shook the medicine bottle in his hand and said, "There's no need to make excuses, I only believe in the evidence in my hand."

He said angrily again: "Take your woman and get out of the Duke's mansion, and I will let the clan remove you."

Huo Jiwen looked at him in disbelief, "Father, are you going to expel me?"

This is much more serious than going abroad.

Huo Xingchen said coldly: "Of course, from now on we won't have a son like you."

Huo Jiwen really panicked this time, and immediately knelt down and said, "Father, I really didn't poison Mother, I don't know anything."

Huo Xingchen snorted coldly, "Your husband and wife are one body, you treat me as a fool, can I be deceived by you?"

"You wanted to stop my search just now, and you were so guilty that a fool could see that there was something wrong."

"Come here, throw Huo Jiwen and this woman out of the Duke's Mansion, and don't allow them to take anything from the Duke's Mansion."

Since he wanted to drive people away, he naturally had to do something terrific and just leave the house.

If they had done this before, there would definitely be people outside who would gossip and think that their husband and wife were too cruel.

Even if you want to distribute it, you should give some.

But now Huo Jiwen and his wife poisoned their mother-in-law.

Huo Jiwen wanted to plead for mercy, but Huo Xingchen didn't give him a chance at all.

Out of sight, out of mind, he even showed a disappointed and distressed look on his face, turned around and left.

The efficiency of the personal guards was very fast, and they were escorted and thrown out of the Duke's mansion.

Huo Jiwen and the two were thrown out of the mansion in embarrassment, and were seen by passers-by, so some people couldn't help asking what was going on.

Afterwards, the people living in the surrounding area all heard that the poison in the eldest princess was prepared by Shi Lingqiao himself and Huo Jiwen bribed the servant girl.

Then the whole capital knew about it, and Huo Jiwen and Shi Lingqiao became the targets of the whole capital who were spurned. Knowing that they were kicked out of the Duke's Mansion, they all shouted that they deserved it.
