Zhou Miao took people to Changchun Palace to deliver meals.
Zhou Miao was also surprised to learn that Concubine Xiao Shu vomited blood.
He is also very confused now, isn't Concubine Shu Fenghan? I never heard that Xiao Fengchi would vomit blood.
Knowing that Gu Jiu wanted to see him, she took the initiative to take on the task of delivering food to Changchun Palace.
Inside the Changchun Palace, the atmosphere was solemn.
Knowing that the meal was delivered, Gu Jiu's heart skipped a beat.
She said to Mrs. Pei: "Daughter-in-law go out and have a look."
Pei nodded in agreement.
Gu Jiu got up and went outside.
Zhou Miao was standing in the side hall.
Gu Jiu stepped forward, turned his back on the person, his face darkened, "What's going on?"
Zhou Miao looked innocent, "How does our family know what's going on?"
Gu Jiu sneered, "Should I remind you how you promised me back then?"
Zhou Miao glanced at the bedroom, but saw nothing.
"Really vomiting blood?"
Gu Jiu walked outside without saying a word.
This is not the place to talk.
She has been to Changchun Palace several times, and she knows where it is quiet.
Zhou Miao followed Gu Jiu to a wing.
Gu Jiu told Nanny Fang, "Stay at the door and make a sound if there is any movement."
Nanny Fang bowed to accept the order.
Gu Jiu turned her head and looked at Zhou Miao with dissatisfaction, "Of course it's true that your mother is vomiting blood."
"If Mrs. Zhao wants to ask our family why the empress vomits blood, our family really doesn't know."
Gu Jiu sneered, "I'll tell you why your mother vomits blood. What your mother suffers from is not a cold, but poisoning."
Zhou Miao was shocked, and his expression changed, "Poisoned? Ma'am, are you sure? The imperial doctor didn't even check it out. How can Madam conclude that Concubine Shu is poisoned?"
Gu Jiu said with a cold face: "Don't worry about how I know. I just want to ask you, you promised me to protect the safety of the empress, but you broke your promise. What do you say?"
Zhou Miao frowned, "Is it really poisoned?"
"How can I joke about such a big event."
Zhou Miao gritted his teeth and walked back and forth in the wing room.
"Do you know who injected the poison?" He asked Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu snorted, "If I knew who poisoned me, would I still look for you?"
Zhou Miao looked solemn, "I will give you an explanation for this matter. Your money will not be wasted."
Gu Jiu sat on the chair and looked at him indifferently, "How are you going to explain to me?"
"I'll help you investigate who is poisoning? By the way, is there anyone suspicious of Madam Zhao?"
"Yes, Concubine Li De." Gu Jiu said coldly.
Zhou Miao hesitated for a moment when she heard the words, "It should not be Concubine Li De. If she has this ability, she won't be unable to turn over by now."
Gu Jiu smiled coldly, "Don't forget the person behind her."
"The Li family behind her..."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhou Miao knew that he had misunderstood.
The person behind Concubine Li De that Gu Jiu mentioned was not the Li family, but the mysterious force behind the kidnapping case.
Zhou Miao said in a low voice, "So many people died in the kidnapping case, how long has it been since then, are those people capable of fighting back?"
Gu Jiu looked serious, "Anything is possible. You have to help me investigate this matter."
Zhou Miao nodded, "Since you suspect Concubine Li De, I will pay attention to her movements. But it may be someone else."
"Of course. I just said that Concubine Li De is the most suspect, I didn't say that she must have done it."
Zhou Miao was speechless, "These people are crazy, they even resorted to such indecent means as poisoning. Don't you worry about backlash?"
The battle in the palace is very fierce, you will live and die. But there is a bottom line that everyone will not touch easily, that is, poisoning.
Because people who are emperors are most afraid of being poisoned silently.
The emperor hated poisoning, and strictly guarded against it.
Once there is a poisoning incident in the palace, it means that a storm is coming, which means that many people will die.
It can be said that poisoning in the palace, and poisoning the concubines in the harem, is a bad strategy.
Just like the concubine Xian at the beginning, she was only suspected of poisoning Concubine Li De, which provoked the emperor's wrath and directly demoted her to Jieyu.
It can be seen that the emperor has almost zero tolerance for poisoning.
Regardless of whether you are innocent or not, kill a batch first.
Gu Jiu said with a stern face: "Don't worry about whether those people are crazy or not, you should check for me quickly."
It is actually very convenient for Shangshan Supervisor to work in the palace.
They can move around (meal delivery) and meet lots of people (meal delivery opportunity).
Zhou Miao was able to help Jiang Shuyi stir up wind and rain in the harem just because he was a small insider, because he was backed by the big tree of Shangshanjian.
Zhou Miao nodded, "I'll investigate now. In case Concubine Shu..."
"It's nothing in case."
Gu Jiu interrupted the other party.
"Madam Zhao, have you ever thought about why those people poisoned Concubine Shu?"
Gu Jiu sneered, "You don't have to worry about why the poison was poisoned, you just need to find out who poisoned it and where did the poison come from? Who in Changchun Palace has problems."
"Fine."
Zhou Miao didn't talk nonsense and left in a hurry.
After Zhou Miao left, Gu Jiu came out from the wing.
Nanny Fang was a little worried, "Ma'am, don't worry too much, your mother has auspiciousness, and she will definitely save the day."
Gu Jiu hummed and returned to the bedroom.
Everyone is eating.
"Where did sister-in-law go? Why did the kung fu man disappear after a while?"
Gu Jiu looked calm and said, "Go out and get some air."
Ouyang Fu didn't have much appetite, "After listening to my sister-in-law, I also want to go out to get some fresh air."
The incense was burning in the bedroom, which made her a little uncomfortable.
She was not used to the smell of incense.
"Where's the concubine?" Gu Jiu asked.
"The concubine mother has no appetite, so she put down the chopsticks after taking two bites. The concubine mother told us to eat more."
Gu Jiu glanced at the bedroom, Pei's been worried and uneasy.
She did not go in, but sat down to eat.
Xiao Qin'er was half full after eating, then put down the bowl and chopsticks, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.
Since entering the palace, she has been silent and her face is pale.
Concubine Xiao Shu vomited blood, which made her flustered.
What should Concubine Shu do if something happens to her? What should the Xiao family do
"Are the fourth siblings full? Don't worry too much, your mother will get better." Ouyang Fu comforted her.
Xiao Qin'er hummed, "Second sister-in-law Cheng said auspiciously. The imperial physician is really useless, even a small wind and cold can't be cured."
All the furniture fell silent.
Concubine Xiao Shu is getting old, and now it's cold weather again, it's normal for the wind and cold to kill people.
Everyone feels a little heavy.
Ouyang Fu muttered to herself, "I don't know what's going on with the Eldest Young Master and the Fourth Young Master."
…
Xingqing Palace.
The imperial physician is tremblingly reporting Concubine Xiao Shu's condition.
The emperor sat on the dragon chair, his eyes dim.
Liu Yi looked anxious, while Liu Zhao looked calm.
After the imperial physician finished reporting, the emperor asked aloud, "That is to say, the imperial hospital doesn't know why Concubine Shu vomits blood?"
The imperial physician hesitated, not wanting to admit that he was incompetent, but in fact they did not know why Concubine Xiao Shu vomited blood.
Liu Zhao stood up suddenly and asked the imperial physician, "Your Majesty vomits blood, but the cause can't be found. Is it possible that it is poisoning?"
As soon as the word poisoning came out, Shi Shi was shocked.
The imperial physician was tongue-tied, as if he had forgotten how to speak.
"Brother, don't talk nonsense without proof." Liu Yi reminded.
Liu Zhao looked at Liu Yi, "How do you know that my mother is not poisoned? This time, my mother has a cold, which is strange, and she vomits blood for no reason. Shouldn't I guess about the poisoning?"
After a pause, Liu Zhao said to the emperor again: "Grandfather implores the emperor to send someone to thoroughly investigate the diet and daily life of the empress. Suner firmly believes that there must be a reason for the empress to vomit blood."
The emperor's face was gloomy, "Why do you think Concubine Shu is poisoned?"
"It's not that the grandson thinks it's possible, but the grandson thinks it's possible."
Gu Jiu cannot be exposed, Liu Zhao can only persuade the emperor to investigate the matter thoroughly.
There are also high-level people in Taiyuan Hospital.
The poisoning was not detected before, because Concubine Shu's pulse condition deceived everyone. Second, if you don't think about poisoning, you won't make a special diagnosis of poisoning.
The emperor's attitude was unclear, and he asked the imperial physician, "Is it possible that Concubine Shu has been poisoned?"
How dare the imperial physician make a conclusion.
He was taken aback when Liu Zhao said that Concubine Shu might be poisoned.
Think about it carefully, it is not impossible.
The Imperial Physician was vague, "I need a consultation with colleagues from the Imperial Hospital."
The emperor was very straightforward, "Then consult a doctor. I want to know the exact answer."
"The humble minister obeys the order."
The imperial physician hastily withdrew and asked someone to inform colleagues from the imperial hospital to come to Changchun Palace for consultation.
Liu Yi stood up and took the opportunity to say, "Grandfather, please allow my father to return to Beijing."
The Son of Heaven snorted coldly, "When King Ning returns to Beijing, I will decide for myself. The two of you stand down."
Liu Yi was speechless.
Liu Zhao was not surprised at all, "The grandson obeyed."
The two brothers left the hall together.
When he got outside, Liu Yi questioned him, "Brother, don't you want your father to return to Beijing as soon as possible?"
Liu Zhao turned his head and looked indifferent, "I don't know if the empress is poisoned. At this time, I ask the emperor's grandfather to allow my father to return to Beijing. Do you think the emperor's grandfather will agree?"
"If you don't try it, why don't you know?"
"You tried it, how did it work?"
Liu Yi was slapped in the face, his face was embarrassing.
Liu Zhao said again: "It's not just that you have filial piety. I also hope that the father and king will return to Beijing as soon as possible, but this matter must be handled carefully. It is too eager. Have you ever thought about whether the emperor's grandfather will suspect that the empress is sick because of this, yes The purpose of our calculation is to let the father return to Beijing."
"How is it possible?" Liu Yi retorted subconsciously.
"Why is it impossible?" Liu Zhao smiled coldly, "Suspicious, don't you understand?"
He didn't say who was suspicious, but Liu Yi understood that it was saying that the emperor was suspicious.
Liu Yi's face changed slightly, "Is the emperor's grandfather really suspicious of our motives?"
He was on duty for a short time and had no particularly important errands. In fact, Liu Yi had very few opportunities to deal with the emperor, much less than Liu Zhao.
The Son of Heaven has so many grandsons, dozens of them. It is impossible for every grandson of the emperor to have the opportunity to show his face in front of the emperor.
In the past, Liu Yi belonged to the type of emperor's grandson who had no chance to show his face.
Therefore, Liu Yi's understanding of the emperor is very one-sided.
Liu Zhao is different.
He began to practice at a very young age and often dealt with the emperor.
He is very clear about the temper of the emperor.
If the matter is not handled well this time, the emperor will point the finger at Prince Ning's Mansion.
So he only mentioned Concubine Shu's poisoning, and didn't mention King Ning at all.
King Ning is too sensitive.
The emperor's guard against the princes is obvious.
Any proposal to let the princes return to Beijing as soon as possible will cause the emperor's displeasure and even suspicion.
Liu Zhao reminded Liu Yi that one must not talk nonsense in front of the emperor.
It is not filial piety that can win the favor of the emperor.
Liu Yi walked behind Liu Zhao, looking at Liu Zhao's back with a gloomy expression.
Reality once again taught him to be a human being, allowing him to clearly see the gap between him and Liu Zhao.
He clenched his fists, wasting too much time in the past.
But it doesn't matter, he is still young, he still has a lot of time and opportunities, and he can catch up.
One day, not only can he catch up with Liu Zhao, but he can also surpass Liu Zhao.
"Brother, wait for me."
The haze was swept away, and Liu Yi caught up with Liu Zhao with reverence on his face.
Liu Zhao glanced at him indifferently, and didn't stop walking or speak.
Liu Yi closely followed his steps and walked towards Changchun Palace.
Looking at the imperial physicians in the room, Pei frowned.
"How is this going?"
"Weichen and others are ordered to consult the empress."
When Pei heard this, she became nervous, "Is your mother's condition very serious?"
The imperial doctor said: "Princess Wangfei, please be safe and don't be impatient. I will tell you the truth after Weichen and others have checked."
"Then check it out quickly."
Mrs. Pei sat on the side, staring at all the imperial physicians with serious expressions.
Gu Jiu stood by the side, very curious, wanting to know how the imperial physicians proceeded to consult.
Every imperial doctor stepped forward in turn, looking, hearing and asking.
Then get together and whisper. Everyone shook their heads. It seems that I have no idea.
In the end, it was the Taiyuan Hospital who took the lead and took blood from the fingertips.
On the white porcelain bottle, a few drops of blood were extraordinarily bright.
An imperial physician took out a jade box, which contained a sleeping beetle.
The beetle smelled blood and woke up. Climb into the vase and touch the blood with its tentacles.
Gradually, the color of the beetle changes at a speed visible to the naked eye. From dark green to water blue.
Beautiful!
However, all the imperial physicians present all changed their faces.
Concubine Xiao Shu was indeed poisoned.
This beetle is too hospital baby. Specially bred to verify all kinds of rare poisons.
Some poisons are rare in the world. People in the Tai Hospital spent their entire lives, but they still couldn't fully understand all the poisons.
The presence of beetles is necessary.
The imperial physician put away the beetle and still kept it in the jade box.
Pei looked at it for a while and was surprised.
Seeing all the imperial doctors, all of them looked solemn, so they asked, "What's the matter with your empress?"
"Princess, don't be in a hurry. This matter is of great importance, and I should ask His Majesty for instructions first."
"Is the empress poisoned?"
Just at this moment, Liu Zhao and Liu Yi came in from the outside. Liu Zhao asked directly in front of everyone.
The imperial physician looked troubled.
Liu Zhao said: "You just need to say yes or no, I will give you a good word for the emperor's grandfather."
The imperial physician hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Report to Young Master, Your Majesty is indeed poisoned."
"what?"
Pei's face turned pale in shock, and she stood up abruptly, "The empress is actually poisoned? How could the empress be poisoned?"
Her eyes swept over the faces of the maids in Changchun Palace.
The maids and servants all shuddered and knelt down together.
Concubine Shu was poisoned, no matter whether it had anything to do with them or not, they were all to blame. Because they didn't take good care of Concubine Xiao Shu, people took advantage of their loopholes.
The imperial physician said: "Your Majesty's poisoning needs to be investigated in detail."
"Investigate, we must investigate thoroughly." After Pei's shock, only fear remained.
Someone actually poisoned Concubine Shu, with such a vicious heart and such powerful means.
If this matter is not found out, she will be in trouble in the dormitory.
Being able to poison Concubine Xiao Shu, could one day be able to poison her too.
Liu Yi calmed down and comforted Mrs. Pei first.
Liu Zhao ordered to block Changchun Palace. No one is allowed in or out. At the same time, send someone to notify the emperor.
Up and down the Changchun Palace, there was a sudden panic, and everyone was in danger.
When the emperor came to Changchun Palace, everyone was trembling even more. Fearing that the emperor would be angry and order everyone to be executed.
In the eyes of the emperor, a storm is brewing.
At the beginning, Liu Zhao asked whether Concubine Xiao Shu might be poisoned, and the emperor thought it was alarmist talk.
I don't believe anyone in the palace has the guts to poison Concubine Shu.
Now that it is confirmed that Concubine Xiao Shu was poisoned, the emperor's mood can only be described in two words: furious!
If you dare to poison Concubine Xiao Shu today, will you dare to poison the dignified emperor tomorrow
The Son of Heaven was deeply terrified.
Irritable because of fear, want to kill because of irritable.
He specially brought people from the Jinwu Guard over, "Investigate, strictly investigate this matter. Any clues must not be let go. Everyone in the Changchun Palace will be interrogated one by one."
The weather was extremely cold, and Concubine Xiao Shu hadn't left Changchun Palace for a long time.
Based on this inference, Concubine Xiao Shu must have been poisoned in Changchun Palace.
Then everyone in Changchun Palace is suspect.
For a while, the Changchun Palace was miserable and rainy.
Pei was still wiping away tears, weeping silently.
The emperor glanced at her, and Pei shivered all over, trying to hold back tears.
The emperor's eyes were full of suspicion.
At this moment, he doubts anyone, including the people in Prince Ning's Mansion.
There is no guarantee that this is not a self-directed and self-acted drama.
