The Journey of the Empress
51 Emotions Yuan

"Yes the Commander-in-Chief of Zerang was the cup of First Consort Xiou Ying" Empress Bai Lu said, recalling that it was the cup of First Consort.

"What does that have to do with?" sela Yuan was emotionally disturbed.

"Please Your Majesty not to cut off this Commander's remark!" said Commander General Zerang calm.

"So continue!" said Yuan turning his face slightly to the side.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" said Commander-in-Chief Zerang then continued his speech which was delayed. "Empress Bai Lu is there two such cups?" asked Commander-in-Chief Zerang to place the cup belonging to First Consort on a small table in front of Yuan.

"Yes the cup was two, This Empress saw that First Consort Xiou Ying poured half of her tea from one cup to the other,to be given to Empress Yie Er because by the time the tea will be poured into the cup Empress Yie Er tea concoction First Consort Xiou Ying is exhausted," said Empress Bai Lu weakly trying to remember everything in detail.

"The cup that Empress Bai Lu spoke of was on this Commander.This cup was found by the healer Chau Ci in the hands of Empress Yie Er at the time Empress Yie Er was treated.The Empress Yie Er said if this cup was given by First Concubine," said Commander-in-Chief Zerang put the cup found in Yie Er's hand onto the same small table.

Now in the small table in front of Yuan there are two cups with the same carving.

Yuan stared at the cup in front of him flat, it was true that it was the First Consort's cup that was used every special banquet of the Empress and Consorts.

"Emperor Yeun can this commander take the white powder!" pinta Panglima Agung Zerang slightly lowered his head.

"Yes, of course, the Commander-in-Chief of Zerang" said Emperor Yeun, taking the handkerchief with the white powder in his robe.

Everyone was increasingly curious, with what Commander-in-Chief Zerang wanted to talk about.The Emperors could only quietly wait for everything to be revealed.

"Thank you Emperor Yeun," said Commander-in-Chief Zerang, taking a handkerchief from Kaisa Yeun's hand and placing it on the same table where the two cups were.

"Now the three pieces of evidence that this Commander is talking about are now on a small table in front of Emperor Yuan" Commander Zerang smiled.

"And these two pieces of evidence that this Commander is talking about will this Commander say in a moment.After Emperor Yeun smelled the scent of those two cups, for Emperor Yeun can you smell the scent of those two cups!" pinta Panglima Agung Zerang.

"Yes, of course, the Commander-in-Chief of Zerang" said Emperor Yeun looks ordinary, but in the heart of Emperor Yeun was curious about what was in the cup so that the Commander-in-Chief of Zerang,ask her to kiss both cups.

Emperor Yeun began to take the two cups at once, slowly one cup began to be brought closer into his sense of smell.A shocked step Emperor Yeun when he smelled the aroma of the cup in his hand.Emperor Yeun smelled the aroma of the other cup, and the,and his surprise was still the same.The two cups scented poison Xui exactly the same as the smell of poison Xui white powder in his hand.

"How is Emperor Yeun?" asked Grand Commander Zerang to see Emperor Yeun's shocked face.

"Supreme Commander Zerang! in this cup contains Xui poison just like the white powder that Emperor Faing found under the First Concubine's seat," Emperor Yeun said looking at the Zerang Supreme Commander intensely.Now Emperor Yeun knew,it was most likely that the perpetrator of the chaos that occurred was done by First Concubine Xiou Ying.

"Please Emperor Yeun, you can sit back," said Commander-in-Chief Zerang, allowing Emperor Yeun to sit down.

Yuan was silent, he now knew, the person suspected at this time was his First Concubine.But that could not be done by the First Consort, he was sure, the evidence was just a mere view.

"That's just proof, Zhen was sure First Concubine wouldn't do such a lowly thing," Yuan said his hissing, both of his hands clenched firmly looking whitish, holding back anger.

"Yes Your Majesty, it is just evidence" said Commander-in-Chief Zerang calmly.

Everyone looked at the curious Commander-in-Chief Zerang.Seeing from the three evidences, all the fairly strong evidence was pointing to First Concubine Xiou Ying.

"Empress Bai Lu! who made the tea the last time the Empress and Consorts drank at the banquet?"

Getting such an easy question Empress Bai Lu immediately answered that. "Supreme Commander Zerang, the last tea drunk by us Empresses and Consorts is the tea concoction of First Consort Xiou Ying" replied the First Concubine.

"Are you sure Empress Bai Lu?" asked Commander-in-Chief Zerang to raise one of his eyebrows.

"Yes this Empress was sure that the Commander-in-Chief of Zerang, obviously at that time the tea concoction that First Consort Xiou Ying was the last to drink, was clear," empress Bai Lu said confidently leaning her head against the chest of Emperor Sares' field.

"Alright this Commander believes, after all there is no way you are lying," said Commander Zerang smiled faintly.

"Well the Emperors and Ministers now this Commander has one more proof.The proof is Empress Bai Lu's recognition of who was last drunk tea concoction," said Commander Zerang grinning.

"There are now four proofs, and there is one more proof.Empress Bai Lu can this Commander ask again?"

"Yes of course Commander-in-Chief Zerang" said Empress Bai Lu nodding his head.

"What did Empress Bai Lu feel after drinking the tea concoction that First Consort Xiou Ying made back then?" asked Commander-in-Chief Zerang so calm.Rejected once with Yuan who had been ignited emotions but held back his emotions.

"This Empress felt weak, began to feel a little pain if this Empress moved.Maybe this Empress could quickly recover from the Empress and Consorts for drinking a little tea concoction.Different from other Empress and Consorts, the Consort,they drank the tea concoction of First Concubine Xiou Ying so much because of the delicious taste," Empress Bai Lu recalled as the banquet was held.

"Thank you, Empress Bai Lu! so what Empress Bai Lu had just said was a proof, now the total evidence in her possession amounted to five pieces of evidence and all of them led to First Concubine Xiou Ying.

If the Emperors or Ministers all want to add or reduce the evidence please," said Commander-in-Chief Zerang bowed his head with a grin printed faintly on his face.

"Supreme Commander Zerang! This emperor thought why the grail of the Empress and the other Consorts did not contain Xui's poison? And after all the reaction from Xui's poison was not like the Empress and Consorts all had experienced," Emperor Yeun said curiously.

"Thank you, the Emperor has spoken! first of all maybe it's a new type of poison Xui.The commander in has heard if Xui's poison reaction is limp and somehow else.And Empress Bai Lu said if he limped shortly after drinking Xui's poison.As well as if the cup-takethe other cup contained no Xui poison and was only in the cup that First Consort gave to Empress Yie Er, so if that was the case First Consort Xiou Ying was intending to poison Empress Yie Er," said Commander-in-Chief Zerang slightly ignited emotions.

"What are you talking about, huh?! Indirectly you accuse First Concubine Xiou Ying," Yuan snapped with emotion.

"Yes Your Majesty because all the evidence points to the First Concubine.This Commander is the Commander-in-Chief is impossible if this Commander is unjust and all the evidence cannot be wrong" said Commander-in-Chief Zerang.
