The maid fetched some water according to Yun Shang's instruction in a hurry. Seeing this, Qian Zhuo took the cold water from the maid's hand and tested it with her hand. Then she quickly withdrew her hand and looked up at Yun Shang, "Your majesty, it's cold water."
Yun Shang nodded slightly, "splash."
Then Qian Zhuo took two steps forward and splashed the whole bucket of water on Yang Mingzhu. The water splashed in all directions. Qian Zhuo blocked in front of Yun Shang who was not wet at all.
On the bed, Yang Mingzhu trembled all over and hurriedly hid in the corner, but she was still wet. "Who? Who? Who dared to splash me? Someone, kill them!"
Yun Shang sneered. Knowing that Yang Mingzhu had woken up, she said sarcastically, "Master Yang, you are so powerful. I ordered people to pour it on you. Are you going to kill me? Oh, by the way, you are really going to kill me."
Yang Mingzhu turned around and looked at Yun Shang. She was in a daze for a long time before she got out of bed and knelt down at Yun Shang's feet. "I'm sorry, your majesty. I didn't know that you was here. Please forgive me, your majesty."
Yun Shang lowered her head and stared at Yang Mingzhu's back. After a moment of silence, Yun Shang smiled, "Have you forgotten what you said and done? Fortunately, I'm not the only one here today. It doesn't matter. Everyone here has heard it."
With a confused look, Yang Mingzhu looked up at the maid beside her and asked, "What did I say just now?" The maid was in a dilemma. She took two steps back and did not respond.
With a smile, Qian Zhuo took two steps forward and stood in front of Yang Mingzhu. "Master Yang, you seemed to have lost your mind just now. When her majesty came forward to check, you pushed her away and made her fall down. Then you shouted and said something... " After a short pause, Qian Zhuo imitated Yang Mingzhu and said, "Don't come over. I killed you, but I had no choice. You promised me that you would kill the Empress, but why did you retreat before the battle? I can't let you live. If others know it, we will all die. Don't come over. I will burn some paper money for you on Qing Ming Festival."
Yang Mingzhu's face gradually turned pale. She hurriedly said, "I'm innocent. I don't remember anything. Someone must have poisoned me and made me talk nonsense."
Yun Shang glanced at Yang Mingzhu coldly and said, "There's no need to talk about this with me. Tell it after you are sent to the Neishi Bureau."
Yun Shang saw that when Yang Mingzhu heard the Neishi Bureau, she seemed to be relieved. Yun Shang thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Oh, by the way, Master Qi of the Neishi Bureau and you have known each other for many years. So he should avoid the case just like the case of Li Fuhua. Qian Zhuo, I'll leave the interrogation to you."
Yang Mingzhu's face turned paler.
Yun Shang withdrew her gaze and said softly, "let's go back." Then she turned around and walked out of the room.
After leaving the Department of Jewelry, Yun Shang didn't go back to Weiyang Palace. Instead, she went to see the nineteenth prince with Lady Wan. The nineteenth prince was only four or five years old, but he was very thin. Yun Shang sighed, took the pulse of him and asked him some symptoms.
"What did the imperial physician say?" Yun Shang stood up and asked Lady Wan.
Lady Wan bit her lips and said sadly, "The imperial physician said it was phthisis."
Yun Shang nodded slightly and comforted her in a low voice. Then she continued, "I'm not good at medical skills and don't know much about this kind of disease. But I have a lot of unique medical books in my hands. I'll go back to see the medical books to see if there is any way to relieve it."
Lady Wan thanked her repeatedly. Yun Shang left her palace and strolled towards Weiyang Palace.
Qian Zhuo turned around and looked at the palace. She said in a low voice, "The nineteenth princes are pitiful, but why did your majesty get yourself involved in these things? Someone might think that you did it on purpose and gossip behind your back, saying that you won't let go of a weak child."
Yun Shang paused and smiled, "If it weren't for someone else's mention, I would have almost forgotten that there is such a prince in the palace."
As Yun Shang spoke, her eyes darkened and her voice became cold. "Although it is said that the nineteenth Prince is weak, and a serious illness almost killed him the year before yesterday, I dare not forget that Xia Houjing was also said to be very weak, but the so-called weakness is just an excuse to fool others. Hasn't he led the army to rebel in the blink of an eye? I found an excuse to visit the nineteenth prince. The most important reason is that I'm suspicious."
Qian Zhuo understood what Yun Shang meant. She asked in a low voice, "Is the nineteenth Prince really sick?'
"Yes." Yun Shang sighed slightly, "Lady Wan said that the imperial physician was diagnosed as phthisis. Although it seems like phthisis, it's still a little different. I'm afraid the disease of the nineteenth Prince is not simple either."
Hearing Yun Shang's words, Qian Zhuo thought for a while and asked, "Did Xia Houjing do it?"
"It's not impossible. Xia Houjing can do anything for the throne." Yun Shang said calmly.
