Chapter 606 Betrayal
Chapter 606 Betrayal
Yun Shang didn't want to ask anymore, but Xiao Sheng insisted on saying that he liked to see others go crazy and in pain.
"What? Don't my brothers and sisters really want to know? Is it because the person who poisoned me is someone from the Duke's Mansion, so I don't want to ask? Oh, I forgot, it is no longer the Duke's Mansion."
Xiao Sheng's words exploded in the queen's mind like thunder, and she believed Xiao Sheng's words all of a sudden.
When Yun Shang didn't want to continue asking, she had a vague guess in her mind, but she didn't expect that it was really the Duke's Mansion.
"Mother."
Yun Shang looked at the queen worriedly. It was because she suddenly guessed the poisoner that she didn't want to continue questioning.
It was really strange that Zhou Jinjian, the second eldest son of the Zhou family, and his whole family were killed. Those letters could be used to blame Xiao Che and sow seeds of doubt in the emperor's heart.But as long as Xiao Che said that he grew up in Dachu Xie's family, it would be easy to explain that he was framed.
So, someone wants to use this to divert attention and cover up the truth about the family's destruction.
There were spies from the Cang Kingdom involved in the Zhou family's destruction. After Xiao Sheng was exposed, he could guess that those people were Xiao Sheng's people.
Why did Xiao Sheng kill Zhou Jinjian?
It must be that Zhou Jinjian had something to do with Xiao Sheng. After losing the title of Duke and falling into despair, he used this to threaten Xiao Sheng and seek some benefits, so he was silenced by Xiao Sheng.
The only reason Yun Shang could think of was that Cang Guo was responsible for poisoning the queen, and Xiao Sheng also used Zhou Jinjian later.
The Zhao family was taken advantage of by her natal family, and within a few years, the Duke's mansion was in a state of decline that was not as good as the Zhao family. I am afraid that like the Pan family and the Li family, there were people behind it who were adding fuel to the fire.
Even when benefactor Zhou Jinkang killed two couples from the Zhao family, someone intervened.
The queen hated and loved the Duke's palace at the same time. She was angry at her relatives for not living up to expectations, but she couldn't let go of this family affection.
If you know that the person who poisoned you is related to your relatives, you will definitely be traumatized again.Yun Shang was worried that the queen would be stimulated, and she would feel guilty and unable to forgive herself, so she didn't want to continue asking.
No matter who it was that poisoned it in the first place, it was already dead.
Xiao Sheng said it. Not only did he say it, but he also explained in detail how the poison was administered.
"The mother-in-law only tempted Mr. Zhou a little, and he took the poison back and put it in the snacks that Mrs. Zhou brought into the palace. You see, such a simple thing does not require the mother-in-law to take action personally. "
The queen has been investigating for so many years but has not been able to find out who poisoned her because she checked all the people around her but did not check on her relatives.
At that time, Mrs. Zhao still loved her and cared about her. Knowing that she had lost her appetite after pregnancy, she asked the cook at home to make some of her favorite snacks and snacks before entering the palace.
They were brought into the palace from time to time, and the queen's appetite improved a lot after eating them.
Who would have thought that there was poison hidden in those snacks.
Before his death, Duke Lao En told the queen that he suspected someone in the Duke's palace had been bribed and that no one could be trusted.After Zhou Jinkang's identity was exposed, he thought the person the old Duke En was talking about was Zhou Jinkang.
Zhou Jinkang has done a lot for the Zhao family, so it is normal to speculate that he has problems.
Now it seems that the person who hides deeply is Zhou Jinjian!
Zhou Jinkang did indeed do a lot for the Zhao family, but he never harmed the Duke's Mansion. It was only because of his dealings that he was able to save the Duke's Mansion.
The queen staggered. She had been looking for the person who poisoned her and her sister for so many years. That person caused the death of her sister and child. Even her son almost died, and finally grew up alone in a foreign land.
And all of this was done by the family members she trusted and cared about the most.
Even if Zhao was being used, Zhou Jinjian was definitely not.
Being betrayed by a loved one is the most deadly thing.
Seeing the Queen in pain, the smile on Xiao Sheng's face became thicker and thicker. The more sad others were, the more excited he became. This was much more interesting than killing someone directly.
The person who made him more interesting was Yun Shang. There were many women around him, of all types, including fat, thin, and many smart women among them.But compared to Yun Shang, he can only be regarded as a little clever.
He just said a few words and she could guess who the poisoner was. It would be more interesting to see such a person in pain!
"Queen, don't be sad. I have already avenged you. If you want to take revenge personally, it's not difficult. I will send you on your way. Maybe you can catch up with Mr. Zhou if you go faster."
I'm tired of playing the cat-and-mouse game, so just kill him!
"you dare!"
Just when Xiao Sheng was about to take action, a loud shout came from the palace.
Hearing this familiar voice, the minister turned around in shock, and his eyes showed ecstasy when he saw the familiar figure.
"emperor!"
The person who came out was the emperor.
The emperor was accompanied by the empress dowager, whose eyes were cold and dignified. There was no trace of tears on the empress dowager's face at this moment.
Xiao Sheng looked at the emperor who came out in disbelief. The Li family was such a loser.He kept an eye on the Li family. The Li family and the seventh prince teamed up to poison the emperor, and also found out the news of the emperor's death from the imperial physician.
Turns out I was deceived.
The emperor's face was radiant and there was no trace of illness. He was not poisoned at all.
Xiao Sheng guessed wrong on this point. The emperor was indeed poisoned, but he was discovered by Qing Yu as soon as he was poisoned.The poison was the same as the one poisoned by Xiao Che and the young lady from the Fang family, and Qingyu could easily cure it.
But no one said anything, and the emperor had a substitute, so he asked his substitute to take the medicine brought in by Qingyu to pretend to be sick.
Neither the court ministers nor Xiao Sheng knew that the emperor had already quietly left the palace through the secret passage in his palace, and was waiting for the Li family and Xiao Sheng to take action, so that they could be caught in one fell swoop.
The appearance of the emperor excited the Southern ministers. As long as the emperor was not dead, there was hope.
Xiao Sheng was briefly stunned and quickly returned to normal. He curled his lips and looked at the emperor who came to the queen's side.
"My father is too impatient. It is not good for the emperor to be too affectionate. If my father continues to hide and take the opportunity to leave Shangjing and go to Lingnan, there may be a chance.
You actually exposed yourself for a woman, you are really not fit to be an emperor.
Since you are not suitable, let your son take your place.
Father, don't worry. After all, I have your blood in my son. When I rule the world, the person sitting on the throne will also be your descendant. Father, I can go to meet my ancestors with peace of mind. "
Xiao Sheng never regarded himself as a southerner and had no feelings for the emperor.
At this point, I don't even want to use the honorific.
Seeing that Xiao Sheng was about to take action, many ministers rushed over, "Protect the emperor."
"Your Majesty, leave quickly."
And the emperor did not show a trace of panic on his face until his death.
Xiao Sheng's eyes became fierce and cruel, "Don't worry, all of you will die today. When you get to the ground, I will let you take good care of-"
puff!
Before he could finish his words, a sharp arrow penetrated his chest.
