Qing Lan's medicine was very effective. Qi Xiao slept for two hours, no more, no less. When he woke up, it was just after noon, and hot dishes, rice and hot soup were all ready.

"How can I... Baixi Bridge?!"

Bai Xiqiao knew that Qi Xiao was about to lose his temper when he woke up, so the senior stopped calling him, and called him by his first and last name.

"I told you everything. Tang Ling's idea and Qing Lan's medicine have nothing to do with me."

"Why do you listen to Tang Ling?! Didn't you just get angry with me when you mentioned him?"

"It's for your own good to let you rest!" Bai Xiqiao raised his voice, and pushed a cup of tea directly in front of Qi Xiao, "Drink!"

"What is this?"

"White water! Afraid I'll poison you to death? Drink it!"

Qi Xiao knew that Baixiqiao was worried about him, so he couldn't blame him, and after sleeping, Qi Xiao's mood eased a lot when he made such an argument suddenly.

"Get up and eat when you've had enough sleep."

Qi Xiao got up and straightened his robe: "I'm not hungry, brother, you can eat, I'm going back to the mourning hall first."

"sit down."

It is impossible for Baixiqiao to let Qi Xiao go back like this, then kneel down, push him over and sit at the table, "Eat well.

Qinglan has something to tell you after dinner. "

"What did he find? Where is the man? I need to see him now!"

"Eat!" Bai Xiqiao smashed the bowl and chopsticks in front of Qi Xiao, "Tang Ling said, eat well and rest well before Qing Lan can answer your words."

"...Senior brother, is it interesting to lie to me?"

"Qing Lan."

Baixiqiao raised his voice to call Qing Lan in, "Ask yourself."

"Qing Lan, what clue did you find?"

Qing Lan shook her head, glanced at the food on the table, and said: "Young Master, if His Highness Ninth Prince insists on kneeling and refuses to rest and eat well, then you can't say anything.

The Young Master will do the things His Royal Highness needs to investigate. "

"...You, you guys?!" Qi Xiao had nothing to say, lowered his head, picked up the chopsticks and swallowed two mouthfuls even if he couldn't eat, and he was able to suppress the choking even after eating.

Baixiqiao sighed, really only Tang Ling can control Qi Xiao... Tang Ling, she really likes Qi Xiao, otherwise how could she do this? Everything is for Qi Xiao, when I came here yesterday Yes, regardless.

Forget it, it turned out that he couldn't control or stop it.

Qi Xiao ate quickly, wishing he could swallow everything without chewing, even if he took two mouthfuls randomly, he was finished.

Bai Xiqiao was so angry that he had a toothache, and had to sit down and serve Qi Xiao vegetables: "It's delicious, understand? How old are you? Do you want me to feed you mouthfuls?"

Seeing this, Qing Lan held back her laughter. The majestic king of Chu would be teased and reprimanded by his own guards, which should be easily invisible, but rather cute.

Qi Xiao stuffed half a bowl of rice, tasted each dish with chopsticks, and managed to barely finish his lunch.

"Can you talk now?"

Qing Lan stepped forward and handed Qi Xiao a small porcelain bottle: "I only found this."

Qi Xiao frowned, and uncorked the bottle, it was empty.

"what is this?"

"do not know."

Qing Lan shook her head, "The aconite smell remains in this bottle."

Qi Xiao was shocked: "Sure enough, it's poisonous!"

"Raw aconitum is highly poisonous, but it is used as medicine after boiling. It is indeed a good medicine for dispelling wind and dampness, and it is good for Lin Fei's disease.

It is necessary to check the records of the Tai Hospital to confirm whether the medicine was given by the Tai Hospital. "

Qi Xiao handed the small porcelain bottle to Bai Xiqiao: "Take it to Imperial Physician Fang for a check."

Bai Xiqiao nodded and was about to go out, when Qing Lan said: "The pulse record given by the imperial hospital last time was very sloppy, and the records are probably incomplete. I guess I have a headache. Is there any considerate person around Concubine Lin who can ask?" ?”

"Call Liu Shuang."

Liu Shuang came very quickly: "Liu Shuang greeted His Highness the Ninth Prince."

Bai Xiqiao put the small porcelain vase in front of Liu Shuang and asked, "Have you seen this before?"

Liu Shuang thought for a while: "I've never seen it before."

Bai Xiqiao handed the small porcelain bottle to Liu Shuang: "Look clearly, think carefully."

Liu Shuang thought about it again, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "It seems, I seem to have seen it before."

"I've seen it for a while, I haven't seen it for a while, have you seen it?"

"This porcelain bottle is not from Qiyun Palace, this servant can be sure."

Qi Xiao called her here at this juncture, and Liu Shuang knew the seriousness. This porcelain bottle was definitely not an ordinary object. She didn't dare to be careless, let alone talk nonsense. hand, but the empress received it quickly, and the slaves dare not fully confirm it."

"You said it was in my mother's hands?"

If it was really aconite poison, how could it be in the hands of Concubine Lin? !Concubine Lin had been ill for a long time, and she couldn't even get out of the palace gate of Qiyun Palace. The imperial hospital had to ask for medicine repeatedly. Where did the aconitum poison come from?

"Slaves dare not lie to His Highness."

"When did you see it?"

"It was the day before moving from Qiyun Palace to Xixing Palace."

"On that day, no, in the three days before moving here, did anyone go to Qiyun Palace?"

Liu Shuang said: "It was the Mid-Autumn Festival at that time, besides His Highness who often came, Eunuch Zhang came once, the Empress Dowager and Empress both had rewards, Concubine Zhao and other ladies in various palaces also sent people to give the Empress some small gifts."

Qi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. In previous years, Qiyun Palace would have been deserted and deserted, but this year he came back and won His Majesty's attention, so he even got busy with Qiyun Palace. Now something happened to investigate, but instead Get in trouble.

"All the palaces sent gifts, and it is impossible for my mother to see them all when she is ill. Liu Shuang, just think about who my mother has met, and have seen those gifts in person?"

"Your Majesty has only seen people in the palace of the Empress Dowager, Empress and Concubine Zhao.

I have only seen the rewards of the queen mother and queen. "

There is no need for the queen mother to use such means, it should be the queen and concubine Zhao.

"Did mother say anything at that time?"

Liu Shuang fell into deep thought again.

Concubine Lin was very ill, she didn't wake up very much every day, and said little to Liu Shuang, Liu Shuang remembered everything clearly, and there was nothing special about it.

"Your Majesty has been mentioned the most in recent days. She said that she wants His Highness to be more at ease, don't worry about it, and go back to Fuzhou earlier."

more comfortable?Don't bother?Back to Fuzhou?Is it to prevent Qi Xiao from continuing to investigate the case...

Concubine Lin passed away, and Qi Xiao had to keep his filial piety. At least before Fuling was buried, Qi Xiao would not be able to go to Dali Temple, let alone investigate the case of military pay.

Qi Xiao's eyes darkened, her whole body was full of murderous intent, Liu Shuang didn't know what she said wrong, she just felt that Qi Xiao was very sinister and frightening at the moment, which made her involuntarily afraid and trembling uncontrollably.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, I dare not lie to Your Highness!" Liu Shuang kowtowed heavily and fell on the ground trembling.

Qi Xiao waved his hand: "Liu Shuang, go down first.

What I asked just now and what you said just now, I don't know. "

"Yes, the servant knows."

With trembling hands, Liu Shuang returned the small porcelain vase to Baixiqiao, then retreated tremblingly, and only dared to breathe a sigh of relief when she walked out of the inner courtyard.

Bai Xiqiao watched Liu Shuang walk away, and when he turned his head, he saw Qi Xiao crush the teacup in his hand, blood dripping down half of the table.

"Xiao'er, let go!" Bai Xiqiao hurriedly shouted, "Come on!"

Qi Xiao's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, I was the one who killed my mother, it was me!"

"What nonsense!"

"It's me! It's me! It's me! If I hadn't held on to the Hubu and Luo Yu's case, how could they force me to let go with such vicious means?! It's all my fault! It's me..."

Qi Xiao was so angry that he couldn't bear it, grief, guilt, anger, and hatred spewed out all at once, as if he wanted to raise Qi Xiao to drown him alive.

Why is this happening? !

He came back to Yuanjing just hoping to be filial and spend some time with his mother!

"It's all my fault! Why didn't I die?! Why can't you put the poison on me?!"

Bai Xiqiao just before Qi Xiao did something radical, pinched his wrist, directly hit his fainting point, and knocked him down.

Qi Xiao's current state is more terrifying than kneeling in front of Concubine Lin's spirit without eating or drinking.
