Chapter 169 Tell the Emperor
Chapter 169 Tell the Emperor
So as soon as Bai Zhaozhao arrived at the waterside pavilion, he began to think, why could Concubine Xu order the palace servants around the emperor? No, the aura here is not right. In addition to Concubine Xu and a few others, there are several other auras that are sometimes present and sometimes not.
Thanks to her excellent talent, she is very sensitive to hidden people. With her current ability, she can sense even a grandmaster, oh, except Li Rongyue.
Although Bai Zhaozhao was confused, she knew very well that no matter what Concubine Xu was up to, it would eventually come out. However, she didn't want to give up the opportunity, so she just enjoyed the scenery and ate cakes without saying a word.
Seeing her like this, Concubine Xu was a little displeased. This Princess Zhaohe must have done this on purpose. Didn't she even ask why she called her over?
Princess Changxing was obviously more patient than before. She took the initiative to say, "It seems that Princess Zhaohe likes these snacks very much. I will have someone send some to you later."
Bai Zhaozhao nodded: "Okay, thank you, Princess. I think it's getting late now, and we have almost enjoyed the scenery. I won't disturb the princess and the imperial concubine!"
After saying this, Bai Zhaozhao pretended to leave.
Finally, Concubine Xu couldn't hold it anymore. What nonsense was it saying that it was already late in the evening and in broad daylight? Besides, how could she have specially asked Bai Zhaozhao to come and enjoy the scenery?
"Princess Showa, wait a minute. I want to ask you something today!"
Bai Zhaozhao was calm and composed: "Excuse me, Madam."
Concubine Xu said, "I heard that Princess Zhaohe is proficient in medicine!"
"Your Majesty, I am too kind. I only know a little bit."
"It seems that the county lady is still modest. I heard that you cured Princess An's body cold, which was a disease that several imperial doctors were helpless to treat."
"Who told you this, Your Majesty? Don't be fooled! Speaking of this, I also find it very strange. I had no confidence at all and just tried to treat it. As a result, my mother suddenly started to get better after going to Qingquan Temple. It must be the blessing of the Bodhisattva!"
"Qingquan Temple?" Concubine Xu was stunned. "You mean...well, no matter what, it must be true that you are a very good doctor."
Bai Zhaozhao seemed to have figured something out. She pretended to be helpless and said, "Well, if the queen says that I'm a good doctor, then that's fine! I haven't treated many patients anyway."
Concubine Xu secretly hated Bai Zhaozhao. Why didn't she fall for it? What was she trying to do by pretending to be so perfunctory?
Princess Changxing was also a little angry. She forced a smile and said in a gentle voice: "Princess Zhaohe, let me be frank. Chen Tianlin wrote a letter in blood in prison, accusing you of giving him drugs to make him... impotent! Now this letter is in my hand. As long as you are willing to live in peace with me in the future, I will give it to you! Or I can destroy it in front of you, so that no one will know that you gave him drugs! How do you think?"
Bai Zhaozhao: What the hell!
Is she a fool in Princess Changxing's eyes? What peaceful coexistence? If Princess Changxing really had something on her, why would she make such a simple request? Even if the blood letter was destroyed, wouldn't the princess still know about it?
So this is a trap! The blood letter is probably true, but she did it very covertly. There is no evidence to prove that what Chen Tianlin said is true. However, when a man is about to die, there is no benefit in slandering Bai Zhaozhao, and he cannot escape with his life, so this blood letter is still credible.
Wait a minute, how did the blood letter end up in Princess Changxing's hands? Logically speaking, after the Jinyiwei imprisoned her, the blood letter should have been presented to the emperor!
Seeing Princess Changxing's forbearing expression, Bai Zhaozhao understood: "What are you talking about, Princess? Why don't I understand? Do you mean that Chen Tianlin wanted to slander me before he died? Rumors say that he is impotent, so he is really impotent? And he said it was me? This is too unfair! Besides, can't he just let the imperial physician check whether he can be impotent or not?"
Princess Changxing seemed to know that Bai Zhaozhao would not admit it, and continued, "Of course the imperial physician has seen it, and he is indeed impotent, and Princess Zhaohe does not have to rush to deny it. I dare to tell you this, which means I have the evidence. As the saying goes, medicine and poison are inseparable. It is not a bad thing that you have such a powerful method. Even if you admit it, the emperor will not do anything to you. After all, Chen Tianlin deserved to die.
The reason I said this today is to tell you my sincerity! As long as you promise not to go against me in the future, I will give you the blood letter immediately, and I will also give you the evidence, and I will never let it spread out to damage your reputation! How about it?
Bai Zhaozhao, you have to think carefully whether you agree or not! "
Bai Zhaozhao was slightly startled. Evidence? What evidence? If Princess Changxing really had evidence, why didn't she just make it public? Could it be that he really wanted to win her over?
No, this was clearly a threat. If she disagreed, the princess would make public the contents of the blood letter, which would definitely damage her reputation. Perhaps both Bai Lin and Prince An would be affected.
Wait a minute, did Princess Changxing just want a verbal promise? That's too easy, isn't it? Aren't you afraid that she might go back on her word?
So what’s the difference between this and inducing a confession?
That’s right! Induce a confession!
After the blood letter reached the emperor's hands, Concubine Xu found out about it and asked the emperor to summon her, because if Concubine Xu's people went to summon her, she might not come at all!
The emperor himself might not believe this blood oath, so Concubine Xu must have wanted the emperor to know something about herself, such as the fact that she poisoned Chen Tianlin!
Therefore, what is important is not whether she agrees with Princess Changxing's conditions, but to prove that she has the ability to make people impotent!
After all, there is a difference between a person who is good at medicine and a person who is good at poison! The former is reassuring, while the latter is frightening!
So, the person hiding nearby should be a master of the Imperial Guards, most likely Xiao Ce! Concubine Xu wanted her to admit that she drugged Chen Tianlin!
No wonder Princess Changxing was so restrained in her words, not as aggressive as before. Then, her claim of having evidence must be false! Otherwise, what was the point of inducing a confession?
If that’s the case, then what is there for her to worry about?
Very good, from now on, every word she said was spoken to the emperor!
Bai Zhaozhao quickly cleared his mind and replied, "Princess, I have thought it through. You just want me to listen to you in the future to protect my reputation.
But in fact, I didn't drug Chen Tianlin at all. Even if I openly write in blood, I will still say this. It seems that we can't reach an agreement today!"
Princess Changxing snorted coldly: "Since the county lady is so stubborn, then I will not be polite. The blood letter and evidence will be spread all over the capital tomorrow. The county lady should take care of herself."
Bai Zhaozhao was not afraid at all and snorted coldly: "I advise the princess to be careful. If this nonsense damages my reputation, I will go to the Dali Temple to appeal! Let the Dali Temple investigate this matter thoroughly!"
Dali Temple? Wang Jinnian almost had the words "good friends with Bai Lin" written on his face!
"You!" Princess Changxing couldn't help herself: "Cry out injustice, cry out injustice, is this all you can do?"
