One second to remember [Brushstroke Pavilion] [Free of charge, read the wonderful novel!]

A fierce look flashed past Shen Ninghua's eyes. He raised his head and looked towards the door.

A maidservant ran over with a pale face. It was the girl beside the madame, Xue Zhu. "Do not drink it! The wine is poisonous!"

"Don't speak nonsense. Big sister personally brewed this wine. How could it be poisonous?" Shen Ling Han suddenly stood up and scolded Xue Zhu.

Shen Ninghua turned to look at her, his smile becoming more and more mocking. These words didn't sound like he was helping her at all.

Shen Dong's face turned ashen. He frowned as he glared fiercely at Shen Ninghua. Then, he asked Xue Zhu, "Why didn't you come to the front yard instead of serving in front of the madame? What was the poison in the wine you spoke of just now?"

Xue Zhu knelt on the ground, still shaken, and upon seeing that the Fifth Prince and the others in the hall had not drunk any wine, she heaved a sigh of relief: "Reporting to the Old Master, I was very happy to receive the wine today, so I immediately got someone to bring a pot for me to drink. The servant girl who came to fetch the wine was very greedy, upon seeing that the wine was abnormally fragrant, she secretly drank two mouthfuls.

Shen Dong looked at the wine on the table, a layer of cold sweat forming on his back. If it wasn't for the fact that he wasted some time with his words, the entire Shen family would be finished today!

The Fifth Prince frowned tightly as his gaze swept across the wine cup on the table and he said in a deep voice, "Master Shen, it's best if we investigate this matter properly."

"Yes, don't worry Fifth Prince, I'll surely give the Fifth Prince an explanation." Shen Dong hurriedly answered. His sword-like sharp gaze was directed at Shen Ninghua. He couldn't wait to kill her and ask, "Shen Ninghua, what's going on?"

Shen Ninghua snickered in his heart. What did he think he did?

"Father, sister is a kind person, she definitely wouldn't do something like poison in the wine, I can only blame myself for not taking the wine out to entertain the guests, please punish Ling Han." Shen Ling Han's face was full of remorse, and she kneeled down as she spoke.

"Get up. Since you are at fault in this matter, I will naturally punish you as well." Shen Ninghua, why aren't you speaking the truth? "

Father, "Shen Ninghua stood up and looked at Shen Dong with a calm expression," Even if a servant made a mistake, she would still have to properly investigate and find out before being convicted. She's your biological daughter, yet you want me to admit my wrongs after hearing what a servant had said.

Shen Dong frowned and said coldly: "Men, go get Doctor Qi."

"Yes."

"Wait a moment." Shen Ninghua looked at Xue Zhu. "You just said that the girl who stole the wine died?"

"Yes."

"Then after she died, did you get someone to check it out? Was it really due to drinking wine?"

Xue Zhu froze for a moment. "The situation is urgent, we have not examined it."

"This …" The bamboo stopped.

Shen Ling Han stepped forward and advised, "Sister, let's call for Doctor Qi first. Once he's here and checked, we'll know what's going on. If sister is really wronged, father will definitely give her back her innocence.

Pure? This was clearly a scheme to put him to death. Even if the emperor's father were to come, the first wife would not let him off. She didn't expect Mrs Zhao to be so impatient. Presumably, it was because her demand for her mother's dowry had directly poked her lung.

Shen Ninghua was about to say something, but Shen Dong coldly ordered, "Shut up! Someone go get Doctor Qi here. Also, bring all the wine and that servant girl who was poisoned to death. We must thoroughly investigate this matter. "

Shen Ninghua sneered. It seemed like the First Wife and Shen Ling Han had already planned things out. His gaze swept across the crowd and his heart turned cold. They were all experienced old foxes, could it be that these people couldn't see anything wrong with it? It was because he didn't want to help her that he saved her the worry of tidying up in the end.

Very quickly, Doctor Qi was invited over. When he saw the Fifth Prince and Chu Junyi, he hurried forward to pay his respects.

"Doctor Qi, please check to see if there's anything added to the wine." Shen Dong said.

Doctor Qi's heart skipped a beat. The water in the Shen Mansion was very deep, and he was extremely reluctant to get involved, so he hoped that it wouldn't implicate him. He opened the jug of wine and examined it carefully, frowning: "Fifth Prince, Sir Shen, this wine..."

Shen Ling Han's pupils contracted slightly as a smile flashed across her eyes.

"Doctor Qi, please speak your mind." Shen Dong's thoughts raced. If Shen Ninghua's crime was carried out, then he would have to think of how to clean up the Shen Mansion. After all, the murder of a prince was a huge crime. As he thought about it, he couldn't help but grow more and more disgusted with Shen Ninghua.

"This wine has been frosted over."

"What?"

"Shen Ninghua, you evil creature, kneel down!" Shen Dong was furious.

In his heart, he was already extremely disappointed with Shen Dong. Other people's fathers were all meticulously protecting their own daughters, but Shen Dong was afraid that she would die too slowly. It was like this in the past, and now it was even more so.

"Father, I, Ning Hua, do not believe it. Please, father, go and ask for another doctor."

"Miss Shen, are you suspecting this old man?" Qi Zhengjun's face turned ugly, "I've always been treating the Shen Mansion, I've never lied about anything!"

"Of course, Xiao Hua doesn't dare to suspect Doctor Qi. It's just that the horse has lost its grip on its hooves, and it's a matter of life and death. It wouldn't matter even if we asked for one more person, right?"

"Good, good. Master Shen, I'm not good at anything, why don't you invite someone else?" As Qi Zhengjun spoke, he started to walk out.

Shen Dong was so angry that his face turned purple. He stepped forward and slapped Shen Ninghua, "Evil creature! Kneel down! "

He raised his head and looked straight at Shen Dong, his black eyes without the slightest ripple, as if they contained a bone-piercing coldness. For some reason, Shen Dong's heart was trembling, and he couldn't bring himself to raise his hand again to slap Shen Dong.

Seeing Shen Ninghua's expression, Chu Junyi's hand which was holding the cup tightened. She suddenly thought back to the time in the cave when Shen Ninghua suddenly woke up and her emotions revealed. Back then, they were also so dark and gloomy … Despair …

At this moment, a cry was heard.

"Life is in the sky! This servant begs the old master to be the judge! "

"Who's making a ruckus?" Shen Dong's anger seemed to have found an outlet to vent as he shouted coldly.

A man wearing blue robes with a face full of grief was brought up. When he saw Shen Dong, he immediately threw himself onto the ground and cried loudly, "Master, I beg of you to uphold justice for this servant."

"You're not Liang Ming's son, Liang Yu. What are you here for?"

"Reporting to Master, this servant's mother was called by Eldest Miss yesterday morning, but she still hasn't come back today. For the entire day, this servant has no other choice, so I came to you. Please make the decision, Master, and have Eldest Miss release this servant's mother."

Shen Ninghua's eyes turned cold as she turned to look at Liang Yu. "I don't even know who you are, much less your mother."

"Eldest Miss sure is forgetful, your servant's mother is Senior Servant Zhou!" "My mother has offended you before, but she has already been punished. She is already old, if you try to punish her again, it will be equivalent to taking her life. Please be magnanimous and release this servant's mother."

Shen Ling Han's tone was full of concern, "Zhou mama served her mother for many years, and was punished for her mistakes. Mother couldn't bear to see her look, so she got her family to bring her back. Elder sister, did you send anyone to find her?"

"Nope."

"Eldest Miss, if you have anything against me, then just do it. One day ago, this servant saw with his own eyes that it was the incense coming from your side, and this servant even personally sent mother to the entrance of the courtyard. Many people saw it, master, I beg of you, please make the decision, otherwise this servant will have to go to the government."

Shen Dong's patience ran out, "Shen Ninghua, what did you do this time?"

Shen Ling Han looked at Shen Dong with a worried expression, "Elder sister, Zhou mama used her mother's things without permission. Shen Ling Han looked at Shen Dong with a worried expression," Elder sister, Zhou mama used her things without permission.

Truly worthy of being her good sister!

"Ever since Grandmother Zhou had punished Senior Servant Zhou, I've never seen her again, much less asked Chen Xiang to call her. Furthermore, my mother bestowed incense to the little girl by my side. I normally treat her well and never make her do anything. " Even if he wanted to punish Zhou mama, she wouldn't allow a girl who had just arrived at her side to call for help.

Shen Lingghan had a considerate look on her face. "Since big sister has questions, then we should send someone to the yard to look. Maybe we can find Senior Servant Zhou somewhere."

"Is little sister planning to search the house of the Shen family's eldest daughter for a servant?" Shen Ninghua asked coldly.

"I didn't say that. I just wanted to help sister prove her innocence." Shen Ling Han gritted her teeth, blaming herself for being impatient, but in her heart, she was extremely disdainful.

"Then I have to thank you. Since you are so enthusiastic, why don't we search our younger sister's yard first?"

"You …" Shen Ling Han gritted her teeth.

"Mister Shen," Chu Junyi said as she put down her glass and looked at Shen Ninghua kneeling on the floor. "Senior Zhou, please don't talk about this matter. We haven't investigated the poison in the wine yet." The Eldest Miss was right before. After all, it was a matter of life and death. It would be better to ask for another doctor. "There's no need to trouble others. Send someone to the Xiao family and inform them that I ordered them to invite Imperial Physician Chen."

Shen Ninghua raised her head to look at Chu Junyi, feeling very surprised in her heart. Imperial Physician Chen's medical skills were astounding, and he was currently the head of the Imperial Physician Courtyard. He was an upright and upright person, and had saved the life of the current emperor.

She had heard before that there was an old friendship between Imperial Physician Chen and the Xiao family. The only person who could ask for his help on a daily basis was the head of the Xiao family. Even the Fifth Prince, Baili Jinze, did not have this kind of face.

He hadn't expected Chu Junyi to invite him in.
