Chapter 767 Tang Luochuan's New Discovery (132 million votes plus additional content)

Ruoli knelt beside Concubine Liang and pointed at Chu'er and said, "Your Majesty, don't believe the lies of this slave. She is clearly slandering Concubine Liang!"

Chu Er sneered: "You and I are both palace maids, I am a lowly maid, then what are you?"

"Our queen just gave birth to the fifth prince, and was promoted to the position of concubine. She also received the grace of His Majesty, allowing her to choose her own title. She has a bright future!"

"Would she poison herself for no reason and use her own life to slander Empress Liang?"

"How can doing something that harms others and does not benefit yourself benefit our queen?"

At the end, Chuer choked up.

Although she had known the Queen's plan for a long time, and knew that the Queen wanted to use her own life to fight back against Concubine Liang.

But when this moment really came, Chu Er was still extremely heartbroken and reluctant to leave...

Many people agreed with Chuer's words in their hearts.

Yes, Concubine Hao had just given birth to the fifth prince and became the head of a palace, with a bright future. Would she risk her own life to frame Concubine Liang?

Just think about it, this is impossible!

As for whether someone else poisoned Concubine Hao and framed Concubine Liang...

Chu'er said it all, Concubine Hao was poisoned and vomited blood because she drank the tea handed to her by Concubine Liang.

There was no one else here at the time, so how could someone else have poisoned him?

Obviously, Concubine Liang and Ruoli also understood this truth, so they did not focus on this point to explain.

Nangong Xuanyu looked at Tang Luochuan: "Where is the teacup?"

Tang Luochuan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I and the judge of the Heyuan Court have checked the remaining tea. The poison remaining in it is indeed the same as the one that Concubine Hao was poisoned with."

Chu Er looked at Concubine Liang and asked in a hoarse voice, "My Lady Concubine Liang, there are witnesses and evidences, what else do you have to argue?!"

Concubine Hao's eyes widened as she stared at Concubine Liang: "Why?!"

"I treat you as my own sister, why, why do you treat me like this?!"

Concubine Hao was so thin that her cheekbones were prominent, her face was pale, and she looked like a ghost asking for her life when she questioned Concubine Liang with her eyes bulging...

Several concubines in the palace who had nothing to do with the matter saw this scene and felt terrified...

If Concubine Liang really did these things, wouldn't she feel guilty at all when facing Concubine Hao's questioning before her death?

"Sister Haopin, I still say the same thing. I have never done anything to harm you."

Even at this moment, Concubine Liang still did not show any panic on her face. She looked at Nangong Xuanyu and analyzed clearly: "Your Majesty, I am only in my twenties this year, which is the right age for childbearing. Why go to so much trouble to take someone else's child?"

"Let's take a step back... Even if I really wanted to raise the fifth prince, why would I choose to poison Concubine Hao's sister?"

"I came to Chuxiu Palace and poisoned her. Everyone will know that I was the one who did it. It's lucky that I'm not being held accountable. How can I raise the fifth prince?"

"It is not reasonable for me to do such a stupid thing!"

After Concubine Liang finished speaking, many people nodded: "Yes, this logic doesn't make sense."

"Not to mention that Concubine Liang is kind-hearted and would not have any evil intentions to harm others. Even if she did, why would she come to Chuxiu Palace in broad daylight and poison people?"

"Even if your majesty does not believe in the character of Concubine Liang, you should believe that she is not such a stupid person!"

"..."

Of course, no matter how good a person's image is in daily life, there will always be people in the harem who want to step on her.

Especially Concubine Chun, she is not from any camp, but her favorite thing is to muddy the waters.

At this moment, she blinked her charming eyes and sneered: "How do you know that Concubine Liang doesn't think so? Everyone thinks that she can't do such a stupid thing, so can't she clear herself of suspicion?"

Concubine Liang glanced at Concubine Chun, still not angry, and said calmly: "According to what Concubine Hao said, I killed her in order to take away the fifth prince."

"But even if this charge is not proven in the end, as long as I am suspected of poisoning the fifth prince's mother, I will not be able to raise him."

"If that's the case, why should I do such useless work and cause trouble?"

All of Concubine Liang's excuses were not mere sophistry, but were reasonable.

Until now, more and more people believe in her.

Concubine Liang has always been trusted by the emperor, although Nangong Xuanyu's trust in her is no longer as strong as it was at the beginning. But he really doesn't believe that Concubine Liang would do such a cruel thing.

At this moment, the look in his eyes when he looked at her softened a lot.

So... who exactly wants to kill Concubine Hao?

Little did she know... Shen Zhinian had spent so much effort to get the chance to uncover Concubine Liang's true identity, how could he let her get away with just a few words?

Shen Zhinian exchanged a glance with Tang Luochuan calmly.

Tang Luochuan suddenly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I was in a hurry to treat Concubine Hao and didn't care about other things. I just carefully checked the toxins left in the cup of tea and found something new."

Nangong Xuanyu asked in a deep voice: "What discovery?!"

Tang Luochuan said, "It stands to reason that after Concubine Hao was poisoned, I and the judge of the Heyuan Court should first find out what kind of poison she was poisoned with, and then find a way to detoxify her."

"But Concubine Hao's condition was too urgent at the time. She could die at any time... In an emergency, I and the judge of the Court of He could only use the silver needle acupuncture method to seal Concubine Hao's meridians, and then feed her a decoction to delay the onset of the poison."

"If this happened to someone else, as long as the antidote is found in time, it may not be impossible to save her life. But Concubine Hao's body is already broken and can't withstand the effects of the medicine. Even if the antidote is found, it will be powerless to save her..."

"That's why I and Judge He did not immediately go looking for an antidote."

"But after checking just now, I unexpectedly discovered that Concubine Hao was poisoned by a chronic poison called 'Soul-stealing'. The body of a poisoned person will become weaker day by day until he dies without anyone noticing, and no one can find out the cause."

"This is the first time Concubine Hao has been poisoned. She would not have had any reaction. The poison would only accumulate in her body and wait for an attack in the future."

"It's because Concubine Hao's body is too weak that she couldn't even withstand such a weak poison and had an attack the first time..."

Hearing this, Chu Er suddenly looked up at Concubine Liang: "So that's how it is! Everything makes sense!"

"Empress Liang, you want to use a slow-acting poison to kill our queen, so that it will be natural for you to raise the fifth prince."

"But you didn't expect that our queen was too weak, and you were exposed the first time you made a move!"
