Chapter 794: The Intention to Kill (136 million votes plus additional content)
Nangong Xuanyu already knew about this.
At that time in Lanyuexuan, he asked Concubine Sun to eat less, saying that it was an imperial decree.
Why couldn’t Concubine Sun control herself?
She did not come here today to apologize, but to ask him to make a decision for her and the royal heir. There must be some hidden story behind this.
Nangong Xuanyu didn't say anything, but just looked at Tang Luochuan quietly, motioning him to continue.
Tang Luochuan continued, "At first, both I and Nanny Lin thought that Lady Sun was eating so much because she was pregnant and her appetite had increased."
"However, whether it is Your Majesty, this humble minister, or the Imperial Concubine Chen, they have all told Lady Sun. But she still can't control herself, which is strange..."
"After careful inspection, I found that it was Xiao Fang, the pharmacist who worked for me, who painted a medicine called 'Lvfang' on the wall of the bowl every time he gave Concubine Sun the medicine to keep her pregnant. That's why Concubine Sun would feel itchy when she didn't eat for a while."
"His goal is to make the fetus in Concubine Sun's belly grow to be extremely large..."
Everyone knows what the consequences of this will be.
After Tang Luochuan finished speaking, he presented the bowls that Xiao Fangzi had put the medicine in, as well as Lu Fang that was found in his room.
After reading it, the emperor's face suddenly darkened, and murderous intent surged in his eyes!
Hao Concubine's body was still warm, and the fifth prince would not live past the age of 20. The emperor attached great importance to the child in Sun Guiren's belly, and told Tang Luochuan several times to take good care of her and ensure the safe birth of the royal heir.
I didn't expect that at this time, there are still people who dare to attack Concubine Sun!
Nangong Xuanyu's voice was as cold as ice: "Where is that slave?!"
Tang Luochuan said: "I have ordered people to arrest him and he is waiting outside."
Receiving the emperor's eye instruction, Li Changde immediately said, "Bring Xiao Fangzi up!"
"Yes."
Soon, Xiao Fangzi, who was tied up, was brought in by two strong eunuchs.
The moment he was captured, Xiao Fangzi knew that what he had done was exposed.
At this moment, his legs were shaking like sieves, and he didn't dare to look at Tang Luochuan, let alone the emperor...
Nangong Xuanyu is not stupid, so how could he believe that it was Xiao Fangzi who wanted to murder Concubine Sun.
How could a pharmacist like him have such courage and ability?
At this moment, the emperor looked at Xiao Fangzi with a sharp gaze and asked coldly: "Tell me! Who instructed you to do this?!"
Xiao Fangzi was just a small pharmacist. He had few opportunities to see the emperor, so he had never felt such great pressure.
He prostrated himself on the ground, his body shaking: "Your Majesty, please spare me... Your Majesty, please spare me..."
"I was bewitched by Cuizhu and committed such a daring act... I know my crime! Please spare my life, Your Majesty..."
Xiao Fangzi really likes green bamboo.
But how true can a eunuch's sincerity be?
If he really wanted to do good for Cuizhu, he would not have bought so many humiliating tools from the old eunuch and used them on Cuizhu just to satisfy his own twisted psychology.
He was also blinded by lust, and when he saw Cuizhu throwing herself into his arms, he was so mesmerized by her beauty that he could not walk.
In order to get twisted pleasure from Cuizhu from time to time, Xiao Fangzi did what she said. At this time, he was scared and naturally confessed everything.
As if he remembered who Cuizhu's master was, Nangong Xuanyu's eyes darkened a little: "Cuizhu?"
Tang Luochuan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, as far as I know, Cuizhu is Xiao Fangzi's perfect match."
Xiao Fangzi didn't want to admit it so readily.
But he knew that things had come to this point. If he continued to deny, what awaited him was the torture of the Ministry of Punishment.
Eunuch Su's methods are no joke...
Xiao Fangzi kept knocking his head, "Your Majesty, it was Cuizhu who seduced me! The method that Lufang used on Concubine Sun was also taught to me by Cuizhu."
"I was deceived by her for a moment. I really didn't mean it... Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"
There was a hint of impending storm in Nangong Xuanyu's deep black eyes.
Even though Liu hired someone to assassinate Nian Nian during the Lantern Festival, he still spared her life for the sake of Yun'er and their past friendship.
As long as Liu behaves herself in Lixuan Pavilion, he will provide her with good food and drink for the rest of her life.
Unexpectedly, Liu did not change her bad habits and even had evil intentions towards Concubine Sun!
Does she want to follow Jiang Shuren's path and harm whoever gets pregnant?
The emperor said coldly: "Send this lowly slave and Cuizhu to the Ministry of Punishment. I want to know the whole story of this matter!"
Li Changde bent over and said, "Yes."
Xiao Fangzi was stunned, his face full of fear.
Ah, no!
He was afraid of torture from the Ministry of Punishment, so he confessed everything after being exposed. How could he not resist stubbornly, or tell the truth, or should he go to the Ministry of Punishment?
Your Majesty, why don't you play by the rules?
The two eunuchs just now dragged Xiao Fangzi out, one on the left and one on the right.
Xiao Fangzi kept begging: "Your Majesty! I have said everything! I don't want to go to the Ministry of Punishment! Please have mercy on me... Your Majesty!"
No wonder people often say that lust is like a knife hanging over your head...
If he had known this earlier, he would not have been tempted by beauty.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret now.
Nangong Xuanyu ignored Xiao Fangzi and looked at Concubine Sun and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"
Concubine Sun has lived with Shen Zhinian for so long that she has some understanding of Shen Zhinian's usual speaking style.
She thought about it carefully. What would Concubine Chen say in this situation?
Concubine Sun's eyes slowly turned red. She covered her belly and looked at Nangong Xuanyu with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, the duty of a concubine is to expand the royal family. As long as I can give birth to this child for Your Majesty, it doesn't matter what happens to me."
"But I never thought that Liu would be so vicious and want to harm my child..."
"Your Majesty, I am really scared... I am so scared that this child will be like the Fifth Prince and won't live to the age of coming of age..."
As Concubine Sun spoke, she covered her face with her sleeves and began to cry.
Why do you want to do this?
Because she looked exactly like her sister, Concubine Chen.
Speaking of Liu, although Concubine Sun was very angry, she was afraid that she would not be able to help laughing when she thought of this...
As expected, Nangong Xuanyu felt even more pity in his heart, and his face darkened a little: “Don’t talk nonsense.”
"As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you and your child!"
"If it is found out that Liu was the real culprit, I will not tolerate it!"
Hearing the murderous intent in the emperor's words, Concubine Sun knew that the eye drops had almost been applied.
She nodded and said, "I believe in Your Majesty!"
After this episode, Concubine Sun stood up and left with Tang Luochuan.
