1005, gambling

Xu Shu smiled faintly and said, "My cousin Qi wants to see the Queen, just go see me, what are you doing!"

Zheng Wanli pursed her lips and said, "I had a relationship with Li Fu before. The Empress scolded me. Now... Li Fu has become the crown princess. When I go to find the Empress at this time, the Empress must think that I am dissatisfied with the imperial edict and will not see me!" The fact is that she had to come to Xu Shu without responding to her request to see the Empress.

"Is Cousin Qi satisfied with the imperial edict?" Xu Shu raised her eyebrows and asked.

Zheng Wanli was really dissatisfied with the imperial edict. She wanted to find the Queen for this matter, but she would not express her dissatisfaction directly. She wanted to let the Queen see Li Fu's true face through one thing and deprive Li Fu of the title of Crown Princess.

"I have been satisfied or not. Can I take it back if I am not satisfied?" If this is the case, she just wished that the whole world would know her dissatisfaction!

"It's good if Cousin Qi understands this!"

It's just that I understand that it's one thing, but whether I accept it or not is another.

"But Li Fu is not worthy of this position at all!" That position belongs to her Zheng Wanli!

"She is worthy? Who is worthy?" Xu Shu asked with a faint smile, but there was no trace of warmth in her smile. Even though the Li family's calculations were made, Li Fu had already paid his life, so Xu Shu still fulfilled Li Fu.

"..." Just as the words "I deserve it" were about to blurt out, Zheng Wanli held it in time and took a deep breath to calm her emotions.

Although Zheng Wanli didn't say it, Xu Shu still understood Zheng Wanli's subtext, "Whether she deserves it or not, we have the final say!"

"That's why I have to find someone who has the final say!" So Zheng Wanli went to find the Queen, "That's why I want you to take me into the palace!"

"No one can enter the palace without the summons of the Queen! The palace gates are all guards checking the people entering and leaving!" Xu Shu refused tactfully and firmly.

Mrs. Zheng San hurriedly said, "Then let Sister Li pretend to be your maid and follow in!"

It’s also a pity that Mrs. Zheng San was able to come up with such a son, but Xu Shu certainly wouldn’t change her mind. “Every time I enter the palace, the guards know her, and the seventh cousin is also a person who often enters the palace. After being seen through, everyone is not good-looking!”

Zheng Wanli sneered, "After all, you just don't want to take me into the palace!"

"Yes!" Xu Shu also directly confirmed Zheng Wanli's words.

Zheng Wanli was so angry that she couldn't speak. Mrs. Zheng San hurried out to smooth things over. "Yijie'er, it's really important for Lijie'er to see the Empress, not for the position of the Crown Princess, but for a more important thing!"

Xu Shu didn't respond while drinking tea, and didn't even raise her eyelids.

Mrs. Zheng San looked at Zheng Wanli, gritted her teeth, and leaned close to Xu Shu and whispered, "There is something else in the death of the prince!"

"I know!" Xu Shu said lightly, "It is rumored in the capital that the prince did not die of illness, but died of alcoholism!"

"The prince was not killed by alcohol!" Mrs. Zheng San lowered her voice, "The prince was killed by someone!"

"Is it killed by someone?" Xu Shu finally raised her head. This was the first time I learned from someone else that was closest to the truth!

"Yes!" Mrs. Zheng mysteriously pulled Zheng Wanli closer, "Sister Li, say!"

After all, his desire for the position of Princess defeated the so-called face. Zheng Wanli said, "The prince was poisoned!"

"Poison?" Xu Shu frowned slightly, "Who is so brave to poison the prince's mansion? Besides, if the prince was poisoned by someone, why would he claim to have died of illness?"

Zheng Wanli pursed her lips and said unwillingly, "Because the prince was poisoned to death by herself!"

Xu Shu showed an incredible smile, "Cousin Qi is confused, right? He said that the prince was poisoned by someone, and then he said that the prince was poisoned to death by himself. It would be fine if he didn't agree with the preface, but the prince is not a fool, so how could he be so stupid as to poison himself? This doesn't make sense!"

Zheng Wanli explained, "The Ninth Sister doesn't know the reason, and it's not surprising that she doesn't understand!"

"I hope to hear it carefully!"

"When the prince's birthday, he got an object called "Nine Transfers Qiankun Pot", which is a wine pot that is divided into nine small grids, which can contain nine different types of wine. Turn the lid of the pot and pour out different wines!"

Xu Shu pretended to be surprised, "There are such objects in this world?"

Zheng Wanli continued, "This was specially made by others to please the prince. I thought it was just a novel object, but I didn't care, but I didn't expect the prince to appear in the wine pot with a novel way of playing?"

“What is the way to play?”

Zheng Wanli took a deep breath and unconsciously clenched her hands into a fist. This was a subconscious reaction that only happened when she felt nervous and uncomfortable.

"The prince likes to bet, and everyone should have heard of it. At first, the prince just played Paijiu, dice, etc., and it was nothing big. Moreover, the prince didn't like to bet on others, so I didn't want to interfere! After the prince got this Nine-Turn Qiankun Pot, he put a wine mixed with laxatives in one of the boxes, and then drank it in turn. Even if anyone drinks the wine mixed with laxatives, he lost. Later, the prince felt that he was not happy with laxatives, and actually... he actually added poison to the wine!"

Xu Shu opened her eyes. The eldest prince did this and he died like this! The gambler finally died in the gambling game, which is destined!

"After adding poison, the prince himself stopped drinking. He only watched the people who gathered to gamble and made them compete to participate in the gambling game with great profits! The prince would try it occasionally, and later he saw that he was fine every time, so the prince became more courageous... Last New Year's Eve, the prince went to the palace to attend a banquet and was scolded by the emperor. He was angry. After returning to the palace, he called the people who often gathered to gamble to play this Nine Transfers Qiankun Pot... But this time the prince failed... he was poisoned to death..."

"After the prince's accident, I hurried over. But when I saw the prince from a distance, I was taken care of by the person sent by the Empress Dowager. I knew nothing about the matter afterwards. But when I looked from a distance, I was very sure that I could see clearly. The prince's face was blue and foaming at the mouth, which was a symptom of poisoning! And when the harem claimed that the prince died of illness, I was even more sure that the prince died of poisoning!"
