I Became the Older Brother of the Heroine in an Abusive Novel

Zheng Guangde forcibly snatched the sachet from her hand, and tremblingly went in front of Xue Yan, compared the smell of the sachet with the doll, poured out the sachet and inspected it before kneeling in front of Emperor Qingping and saying: : "Return to Your Majesty, it is indeed Cunxiang Pill."

At this point, the evidence is conclusive.

These few days, only Dian Cui has the key to the warehouse.But if it is said that this thing has been here for a long time, and Dian Cui didn't know about it, that is reasonable; however, this doll actually has a smell of Cui's body, and this scent is only found on her body.

It is absolutely impossible to be someone else.

"...Dian Cui?" Concubine Shu was startled, and looked at her in a daze, only to see that Dian Cui had collapsed on the ground, she just kept shaking her head, saying that she was wronged.

But no matter how wronged she was at this time, no one would believe her anymore.Emperor Qingping looked at her, and was about to ask her why she did this and who ordered her, when Xue Yan suddenly spoke.

"Since Aunt Diancui said she was wronged, it's better for the emperor to make a conclusion after investigating."

When no one else was paying attention, he lightly threw the doll back into the box.An understatement of an action, like throwing an insignificant object, and like a guillotine slowly settling down, cutting off a person's head neatly.

"If you want to find out if something was made by her, why don't you search her house?" Xue Yan said, looking at Emperor Qingping.

There was no contempt or disrespect in his tone, but it just made Emperor Qingping feel uncomfortable from the bottom of his heart, as if an invisible force trampled on his majesty as emperor.

But he was right.Emperor Qingping suppressed his displeasure, waved his hands, and told Ling Fu and Zheng Guangde, "Quickly search for them."

But Jun Huailang next to him was a little flustered, and looked sideways at Xue Yan.

Originally, Dian Cui could have been convicted just now.Curse the concubine, no matter who is behind her, she will not escape death.But now, he wanted to search her room again. If she had done a clean job and left no clues in the room, then what would happen?

Xue Yan glanced sideways at him.

Those amber eyes were calm and comforting, just one glance calmed Jun Huailang's flustered mood a bit.

Not long after, Zheng Guangde came back to report.

He scrambled and scrambled, in a trance, and when he entered the door, he tripped over the threshold and fell to his knees in front of Concubine Shu.And behind him, Ling Fu returned to his command with some objects, all of which were needles and threads, similar to the fabric used to make dolls.

"... Your Majesty!" He lay on the ground and raised his head, his voice trembling.

"……what happened?"

Concubine Shu was a little dazed.Seeing the conclusive evidence in front of her, Dian Cui knelt down on the ground, but she couldn't explain it.

This court lady who has been with her for nearly 20 years, she trusts Diancui so much, she has never treated her badly, how could she betray herself?

Seeing Zheng Guangde kneeling in front of her, she was a little dazed and reluctantly asked a question.

Seeing that Zheng Guangde was about to shed tears, he held a cloth bag in his hand and spread it tremblingly in front of Concubine Shu.

It was a few paper bags, and what was wrapped inside were some medicinal powders that were ground into powder.

"What is this?" Emperor Qingping asked.

Zheng Guangde looked sideways, and with red eyes gouged out Diancui, then put the thing on the ground, kowtowed tremblingly and said, "Return to Your Majesty, it's all powdered medicine. Some of them I don't recognize, the slave has sent people to find the imperial doctor, and the rest A few, saffron, musk, and persimmon powder."

Suddenly, everyone present was shocked.

These are common medicinal materials, and their efficacy is well known.Saffron and musk are both contraceptive drugs, and persimmon stalks are cold in nature. If they are taken regularly, women will lose their fertility.

Concubine Shu's feet were weak and she almost fell, but was supported by the maid next to her.

"...Dian Cui?" Her voice was trembling, and she forced herself to call out for Dian Cui.

And Diancui, who was kneeling on the ground, also stared blankly at the things in Zheng Guangde's hand.

How could it be... Even though she did all these things, she didn't leave any clues in her room at all.

She had already burned all the cloth heads of the same fabric.As for the medicinal powder of Bizi, she has been hiding it in the tea pot where she drinks tea.The medicinal powder was given to her by someone sent by Yi Jieyu. The prescription is very secretive, there are no obvious medicinal materials such as safflower and musk at all, even if it is found in the tea pot, it will not attract attention.

Who knew all the things she did, sneaked into her room without anyone noticing, and hid the evidence in it!

Dian Cui knew that no matter who it was, that person had calculated it, and she was just waiting for her to reveal her secrets today.

She could still think that she had a grudge against Concubine Shu for the witchcraft puppet, and she made it herself; but once the imperial doctor came to check the prescription for avoiding children, it would definitely be revealed.

She is a little maid, so it is easier to find musk and other things, but how could she find such a complicated recipe by herself?

It is inevitable that torture will be inevitable, and she will be asked to confess who is behind the scenes.

Dian Cui lay limp on the ground, with red eyes, she glanced at Concubine Shu.

She was lonely since she was a child, and by serving Concubine Shu, she was out of the sea of ​​misery.But her only younger brother was controlled by Yi Jieyu's family, and she couldn't abandon him.

And what she doesn't want to admit is that she grew up with this proud girl since she was a child. She is the master and she is a slave. Seeing her growing up in the hands of others, until now, she has never eaten a little bit of food. bitter.

She couldn't hide the jealousy in her heart.

Dian Cui kowtowed at her, and before everyone could react, she rushed out and bumped her head against the corner of the box next to her which was covered with copper sheets.

Immediately, Jun Huailang's eyes were covered by a dry and warm hand.That hand had distinct joints, and the palm was covered with a thin layer of calluses. It seemed that it deliberately slowed down its movements, but it still turned his gaze in a direction with an undeniable force.

"Don't look." He heard Xue Yan's voice ringing in his ears.

-

Diancui's death made Mingluan Palace gloomy for several days.

The servants always trusted Diancui, but she was the only one who followed her lead, but they never expected that Diancui would be bribed by someone. The witch-trick villain cursed Concubine Shu, blamed the fifth prince, and kept giving her medicine to avoid her son.

No wonder the empress has not been able to give birth to a child for ten years, and every month when the next month comes, the pain is unbearable.

They have done things together for many years, even if they are both slaves, they still have feelings, but they never thought that this should be the closest servant of Concubine Shu, but he has harmed her for so many years.

When Jun Huailang came out from the east side hall, he walked along the corridor to the main hall, and heard Zheng Guangde directing a group of eunuchs and maids to clean up in the front yard, cursing while directing.

"Who knew that the empress was kind, but raised such a white-eyed wolf! You also saw it when the corpse was carried out that day. If anyone is deceived by lard and does such a thing, he will end up like this!"

He has a high-pitched voice and a loud voice, which sounds strange from a distance.

Several palace people from Mingluan Palace nearby knew that Zheng Guangde was not relieved and was still looking for a reason to scold Diancui.Everyone held their breath in their hearts, and they whispered in agreement after hearing the words.

"Who can be as capable as that one? I can't see how well the empress treats her."

"Yeah, who among us can have this kind of heart?"

"The good deeds she has done in this life will not be in vain if she is entrusted to be born as a beast in her next life!"

A group of eunuchs and court ladies muttered to each other until Jun Huailang approached and found him.

Zheng Guangde quickly stepped forward to salute him: "His Royal Highness, are you going to the main hall?"

He was so busy that his voice was a little hoarse.On weekdays, he and Diancui handle all matters in the palace, but now that one of them died, the work of both of them fell on him alone.Now that it's the end of the new year, there are already many things to do, and such a big incident happened in Mingluan Palace. In the past few days, he has been so busy that he can't touch the ground.

Jun Huailang smiled at him: "Eunuch Zheng, please get up. You have worked hard these few days."

Zheng Guangde hurriedly said: "It's not hard, it's not hard! On the contrary, Your Highness, you should spend more time with the empress. These days... are not very good for her."

Jun Huailang knew it.

Even Emperor Qingping didn't know about Diancui drugging Concubine Shu.He wronged Concubine Shu this time, and seeing someone in the palace harming him like this, his mind was already filled with pity.

He almost emptied half of the imperial hospital to treat Concubine Shu, but he felt that the cold was entering his body, so he could only recuperate slowly.Emperor Qingping moved a lot of rewards to her palace these days, and came to see her every day, but he still didn't see Concubine Shu happy.

Jun Huailang knew that she was hurt by the people around her.

When Emperor Qingping was away, he would go to talk to Concubine Shu.It happened that Emperor Qingping didn't come today, so he went to Concubine Shu early in the morning.

Jun Huailang nodded: "I can save it, father-in-law don't worry."

Zheng Guangde nodded again and again, and turned to invite him to pass.

Incense is burning in Concubine Shu's palace, and the earth dragon is burning hot. Once you step in, it is warm and fragrant. There are carved beams and painted buildings around, and the decorations are all exquisite, as if you have stepped into the residence of an immortal.

Seeing Jun Huailang coming, the maids saluted him and pointed out to him that Concubine Shu was in the Nuan Pavilion at this time.

Jun Huailang walked all the way in, bypassing layers of gauze curtains and painting screens, and saw Concubine Shu sitting under the window of the Nuan Pavilion with a few furs in hand.

"Auntie, what are you doing here?" Jun Huailang slowed down his voice, met Li, and walked forward.

Diancui had to get rid of him, but Jun Huailang still felt uncomfortable seeing Concubine Shu's sleepy appearance.

In the entire Jun family, no matter the elders or the juniors, who would be willing to let Concubine Shu suffer?But there was such a person beside Concubine Shu.

Seeing him coming in, Concubine Shu raised her eyes and smiled.

Still sick, no energy.

"You come." She smiled, and moved a seat for Jun Huailang beside her.

"These pieces are all rewarded by His Majesty. Take a look, which color looks better?" she said.

"Go to the west side hall in a while and ask Xue Yan about the size of his shoulders. Chinese New Year is coming soon, I have nothing to do, so I will make cloaks for each of you."
