Concubine's poisonous plot

Chapter 388 A big game of chess

There is indeed something wrong with that Four Treasures.

At that time, Si Bao's mother was the one who served the late empress. However, because of her greed for money, she accepted benefits from others and poisoned the late empress. This was a crime that was punished by the whole family. However, the late empress was kind and signaled that she should stay. She was not sensible at the time. The four treasures.

Originally, the first empress thought that the matter would end there, but unexpectedly, someone with a will changed the identity of the four treasures and sent them to the fifth prince, and told him that the first empress had killed his whole family.

Over the years, Si Bao has always lived in hatred.

Those two people also admitted that the person behind the scenes was another concubine in the palace who had a prince, and her sister was the Princess of England.

Everything points to the British Palace, which is even more intriguing. It seems that the situation in Western Qin is not stable.

This King of England seems to have a big problem.

When they went to find Si Bao with those confessions, Si Bao was of course not dead, because Shu Yunzhao did not allow such a person to die so easily.

Si Bao didn't believe it at first, until the fifth prince woke up and heard that he was the son of the maid back then, and looked heartbroken.

The fifth prince was extremely disappointed and directly said that his dead mother was so kind in a moment of kindness that she left such a disaster, so it would be better to just let them all die.

Si Bao's mind collapsed, his whole body was shrouded in pain, and he could no longer speak with a normal voice.

He knew he was in trouble, and it was a big one.

He wanted to die and felt that he didn't deserve to live in this world at all.

"Why do you have the nerve to die?" Shu Yunzhao said directly.

Si Bao looked disheartened, his life was a joke.

Xiao Jinyao said: "You died like this without any evidence. Those who wanted to harm the fifth prince did not receive any punishment and will continue to do so in the future. What your mother did back then, you did again to the fifth prince. You Now that you know you were wrong, you should go back and testify against those people, instead of thinking that you can apologize by dying."

Only then did Si Bao understand that his life was still useful.

He also carefully considered who he had been in contact with over the years, how he came to be with the fifth prince, how he knew his life experience, and how he gained the trust of the fifth prince step by step, and obtained those poisons without anyone noticing. He poisoned the fifth prince.

When the fifth prince heard the name of the concubine, he immediately thought of the British Palace.

Although Si Bao did not say that people from the Prince's Palace had direct contact with him, considering what happened before, they definitely couldn't escape the connection.

"Your Highness the Fifth Prince, how to send these people back is also a problem. After all, when crossing the border, they will be interrogated and let them pass directly. If something happens midway, there may be problems." Xiao Jinyao said.

The fifth prince thought for a while and said, "It doesn't matter. My uncle is guarding the border. Just send people there and leave other issues to them. Although my grandfather and uncle are not in the court these years, their influence He is still there, after all, he is in charge of more than half of the military power in Western Qin."

The fifth prince didn't hesitate and had already figured out what to do.

These people must be sent back as soon as possible. News of what happened here will definitely leak out. If they wait until they are ready over there, it will be too late.

Ma Mingzhen's own life experience was already a bit rough. When he heard these things, he felt even more deeply about the difficulties of the royal family.

How has the mother persisted all these years?

He had no time to blame the people who caused these things, but felt sorry for the eldest princess.

Si Bao entertained that there were several other arranged guards in this mission. Because the maids had no way to get close to the fifth prince, and they were more likely to be alerted, the people who followed this time were all unexpected.

Such meticulous thinking, just to let the fifth prince die in a foreign land, is really amazing.

Xiao Jinyao thought about it and felt that this matter could not simply be dismissed as an internal struggle in Western Qin. They should let their own people go to Western Qin to investigate the crime.

He felt that this time, the emperor should be Mingming and find someone to send an envoy to Xi Qin to explain the matter clearly.

The people behind it are obviously already trying to stir up disputes between the two countries, and even want to join forces with Dong Qi.

Now, although Daxia relies on Xiao Jinyao and is related to the Northern Jin Dynasty, there is no absolute chance of winning, unless another Southern Chu among the five countries can also clearly express its support for Daxia.

However, Western Qin has also married Nanchu, so they may have one more enemy.

The friendship between Xiao Changfeng and Shangguan Hu may not be of much use.

It seems that this pattern that has been maintained for many years is about to be broken.

Dong Qi has been trying to make a move for many years, and finally found an ally.

That night, Xiao Jinyao went directly to the palace secretly and reported these things.

After hearing this, the emperor frowned.

I originally thought that the marriage of Western Qin was the beginning of friendship between the two countries, but I didn't expect that there was a hidden murderous intention.

If the people behind it are really successful, they will really have to face a very serious situation in Daxia.

"This matter is of great importance. Are you sure you have investigated it clearly?" the emperor asked.

"It has been found out, but they still need further verification from Western Qin... If there are really forces advocating war on their side, we must be prepared." Xiao Jinyao said.

The emperor's mood was very complicated. He did not expect that he would experience another turmoil during his reign.

In the war with Dong Qi, both countries took a long time to recover.

Now if Eastern Qi joins hands with Western Qin and attacks from both sides, it will be bad news for Daxia.

"At this time, they actually did something like this. It seems that the British Prince's Palace wants to take advantage of the Chu Kingdom. Anyway, it is people from the Chu Kingdom's Palace who came to marry, and Lin Churui came from our Daxia. As long as the war is really going on If they get up, they can use the excuse that Lin Churui is a spy sent by our Daxia to convince most people who don't know the truth." Xiao Jinyao reminded.

Of course, the emperor also thought of this. It seems that the people behind it have really considered all aspects.

"In this case, there is no need to be too lively at the palace banquet tomorrow. We will simply greet them and then arrange them in the post house. I will make a decision after discussing with the ministers."

The emperor did not make up his mind immediately. This matter was really of great importance.

Xiao Jinyao said: "If the fifth prince is on our side, he should not be able to fight. After all, more than half of the army of Western Qin is in his maternal grandfather's house."

The emperor shook his head and said: "Yao'er, I want to tell you that no one can be completely trusted in this kind of thing between the two countries. Who knows if this fifth prince is a chess piece deliberately arranged to make us relax our vigilance? After so many years , the Emperor of Western Qin did not regain the military power of his maternal ancestors, but allowed him to be assassinated like this. This is not in line with common sense. "
