Chapter 825 The Queen Mother was beaten in the face
But as he said, there is a queen mother behind Qi Guogong.
The imperial doctor here had just woken up the Duke of Qi, and the Queen Mother, who had cleaned up the poisonous cakes, came.
"Qi Guogong, where did the medicine come from?" As soon as Chang Sun Tao's serious words fell, the door opened with a bang, and the Queen Mother in gorgeous clothes and phoenix crown walked in surrounded.
She came menacingly, with a graceful and luxurious look, her phoenix eyes swept across the ministers present, and with the majesty of the Queen Mother and the aura infected by decades of harem career, she slowly walked up to Changsun Tao.
The Queen Mother spoke in a deep voice: "Prince Qi is so brave! Just try the Duke of Qi when he says it will be tried. Who do you think you are? Is your position higher than the ninth and fifth?"
These words were quite harsh, and everyone was so frightened that they knelt on the ground.
Changsun Tao stood up unhurriedly, bowed his hands and saluted: "I see the Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother winked, and the entourage beside her immediately pulled the chair where Chang Sun Tao was sitting and respectfully asked the Queen Mother to sit down.
The Queen Mother flicked the hem of her skirt that was swaying on the ground, and Fengyi sat down. She looked at the courtiers in the palace with leering eyes, and said with deep displeasure in her tone: "The Ai family cannot bear such a great gift from King Qi."
"The one you are trying as a prisoner is the father of the Ai family. Today the Ai family wants to see how you punish the father of the Ai family!"
Mr. Feng was the first to speak: "Queen Mother, you must be aware of the fact that Her Majesty was almost assassinated. What instructions does the Queen Mother have on this matter?"
"The emperor was assassinated?" The Queen Mother's eyes flickered, showing a surprised expression, "When did it happen? How come the Ai family didn't know?"
Everyone looked at each other in shock, thinking that the Queen Mother was preparing to continue pretending to be crazy and acting stupid to the end.
Mr. Feng smiled and said respectfully: "The Queen Mother does not know that Your Majesty has been assassinated. I would like to ask the Queen Mother in a different way. What do you think, Queen Mother, of the fact that the cakes delivered to Your Majesty are poisonous?"
The Queen Mother sneered: "Poisonous? What poison? Which cake is poisonous? Feng Xiang, what nonsense are you talking about? How come the Ai family can't understand."
Mr. Feng smiled good-naturedly and didn't say much.
As the Prime Minister of a country, he cannot argue with a Queen Mother who pretends to be crazy and acts stupid.
It's just that the Queen Mother protects Duke Qi so fiercely, so things are not easy to handle!
The Queen Mother rolled her eyes and suddenly slapped the table, causing the things on the table to fall to the ground. Her voice was sharp and she yelled angrily: "Asshole! Do you mean that Duke Qi poisoned the emperor? What are you saying to confuse right and wrong? !”
"You are talking nonsense! Even if all of you here are suspected of poisoning His Majesty, Duke Qi will not be suspected of poisoning him! Okay, since you said that Duke Qi poisoned him, where is the evidence? Who is the witness? What is the physical evidence?"
As the most noble woman in the world, the Empress Dowager's attitude was so tough that everyone was reluctant to confront her head-on, so they could only look at Changsun Tao in unison.
Changsun Tao, who had been standing beside the Queen Mother with his hands folded, suddenly laughed out loud: "Queen Mother, what are you talking about? I don't even understand!"
The ministers lowered their heads and had no intention of speaking.
The Queen Mother was not sure for a moment whether the person who reported the news had reported the wrong news. Half of her aggressive momentum was instantly relieved because of this "uncertainty".
And Changsun Tao's unhurried attitude at this moment made the Queen Mother wonder if she had made a mistake.
Therefore, the Queen Mother did not dare to speak rashly anymore, for fear of making some joke and making things get out of hand.
Furthermore, the people present were all high-ranking ministers. Once the Queen Mother's power was removed, she became unable to suppress everyone's attitude.
Changsun Tao took advantage of this moment and suddenly became tough. He raised his hands and asked, "Queen Mother, I just want to ask you one question, which one is more important to you, the king?"
The Queen Mother said: "The Ai family doesn't want to answer this tricky question."
Changsun Tao asked: "Then what will happen if a ship loses its helmsman?" The Queen Mother said: "It will naturally sink in deep water."
Changsun Tao said: "The country is like a big ship, carrying people and common people. Your Majesty is the one at the helm, and the civil and military officials of the dynasty are the sailors, both of whom are indispensable. But if you have to choose one, I would rather lose one sailor. Don’t want to lose someone at the helm.”
The Queen Mother became angry again: "You mean, the minister can give up at any time."
Changsun Tao said loudly: "Yes! As a last resort, we can only sacrifice one of them to protect the overall situation. Now that His Majesty's life has been threatened, as the prince of Qin, I have the responsibility to protect His Majesty's safety."
"This matter involves the Duke of Qi. Since the Duke of Qi is suspected, it must be handled in accordance with the national law. If he is innocent, he will not be unjust. If he is guilty, the national law will not tolerate it!"
"The Queen Mother rushed in rashly and blindly protected the Duke of Qi without asking any questions. I would like to ask the Queen Mother, in your heart, whether His Majesty's safety and the country's laws are not as important as the Duke of Qi! If the Queen Mother thinks so, let's stop the matter today! "
Even if the Queen Mother thinks so, does she dare to say it?
She dare not.
Because if she said it, it would be equivalent to admitting that she did not respect the law of the country and was ignorant of the truth.
Such a queen mother, even if she wears gorgeous clothes and has a phoenix crown on her head, has lost the dignity and power that a queen mother should have, and can only intimidate some minions at best.
The heart-wrenching questioning made the Queen Mother fall into silence.
After Changsun Tao dealt with the Queen Mother, he once again asked Qi Guogong: "I will ask you again, where did the medicine in the finger come from?"
Duke Qi's head was covered with needles and he couldn't move or yell. He just closed his mouth tightly and looked at Changsun Tao with wide eyes.
Seeing that the Duke of Qi remained silent, Changsun Tao finally lost his patience. He stood with his hands behind his hands, and his majestic aura was natural: "Duke Yue, lead the Qilin Guards to imprison all the Dukes of Qi. Let the three departments organize a joint trial to find out this poisoning." The truth!”
"Wait a minute." After hearing this, Emperor Yuanwu wanted to stop him, but was stopped by Lu Mingyu, "Your Majesty, the prince does not really want to deal with the Xiao family. Please be more patient and less impatient."
Emperor Yuanwu frowned: "What does the emperor want to do?"
Lu Mingyu said: "The prince only wanted to know where the medicine came from from the beginning to the end. He did not ask Qi Guogong why he gave His Majesty the medicine? This shows that he felt in his heart that Qi Guogong would not do such a thing. It is important to find out the source of the poison, so that we can Closer to the truth.”
Outer hall.
Lu Mingyong turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by the Queen Mother: "Wait a minute."
The Queen Mother looked at Changsun Tao fiercely: "Prince Qi, do you really want to do this to such an extreme extent?"
Changsun Tao said: "Queen Mother, I have asked Duke Qi no less than three times. If Duke Qi is willing to cooperate and explain where the medicine comes from, I don't have to be so aggressive. There are a hundred members of the Xiao family, and they don't need money to eat in prison?"
The Queen Mother gritted her teeth: "You have been asking where the medicine on Duke Qi's ring came from, but what does this medicine have to do with the medicine you said was put into the cake?"
Changsun Tao said quietly: "The Queen Mother will not think that the bowl of cakes that your Majesty brought to Qingning Palace was ruined. Your Majesty did not leave a single bit here, right? I have already confirmed that the medicine in your Majesty's cakes is the same as the one in Qi Guogong's ring. It's the same kind, and the Duke of the State is highly suspected of poisoning."
"I want to resolve this matter as soon as possible, so I have not told the Queen Mother about the cause and effect. But if the Queen Mother is so distrustful of me, then why not take some time to tell the Queen Mother about the whole story?"
Everyone was confused - King Qi had just said with certainty that the Duke of Qi had poisoned His Majesty. Why did the conversation change while he was still talking?
King Qi's work is really confusing.
