The yard of Xihe Palace is full of servants of all sizes, some of them are provincial, some clean the yard, and even some servants who often pass by Xihe Palace.
Zhuang Luoyan sat on the side with an expressionless face, and the two emperors and empresses sat on the top, their faces were no better than Zhuang Luoyan's. A few cups were smashed on the ground, all of which were thrown down by Feng Jin in anger. If it wasn't because of Zhuang Luo's child in his belly, I was afraid that these servants would have been dragged out to be tortured with a cane.
"You all claim to be innocent, so who has moved the soil in this flowerpot?" The queen looked at the two eunuchs who brought the soil with a sullen face, "This soil was sent to Concubine Zhao by the two of you, and the most suspicious thing is It is you. You must know that the soil for growing flowers comes from different places, and the soil is taken into the palace according to the nature of the flowers. There is no problem with the original soil in the palace, so it can only be done by you on the way to deliver the soil. Honestly, who is instructing you?"
The two eunuchs were already frightened, how could they know that there would be a problem with the soil, let alone someone instructed them. When they heard the queen say this, they had to kowtow and shout grievances, but they could not find evidence to clear their grievances.
"Since you said that you were wronged, then think about it carefully, on the way to bring the soil, has anyone touched this picture, or has anyone approached you?" The Queen's tone softened a bit, "Think again. Who gave you the soil that day?"
The two were so frightened that their minds were confused. The queen asked this question, and they couldn't remember for a while. The queen didn't rush, she just took a sip of the tea, turned her head to Zhuang Luoyan and said, "Fortunately, this thing was seen to be wrong, otherwise..." She remembered that Zhuang Luoyan had had a miscarriage once, and this woman had many times. A miscarriage can lead to infertility. Fortunately, the child was saved. Otherwise, she didn't dare to think about what happened. Looking at the emperor who had been silent for a while with lingering fears, the queen held the teacup tighter.
"I made the emperor and the empress empress worry," Zhuang Luoyan smiled bitterly, "In these days, apart from coming to your empress to ask for your safety, concubines and concubines don't dare to walk around in other places. Who would have thought of such an unpredictable idea. "
After listening to the queen, she sighed, this method of drugging in the soil is really unprecedented, and it is indeed hard to prevent. She asked people to strictly check the people and affairs of Xihe Palace, and I really didn't expect such a method.
According to the methods of ordinary people, at most, it starts with food, clothing, incense, and utensils. A woman who can come up with such a method is too terrifying.
"You don't have to worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly," Feng Jin said solemnly, "I don't believe that there is anything in this harem that I cannot find out."
Hearing this, Zhuang Luoyan reluctantly smiled, took the hand stove that Yun Xi handed over and hugged: "Concubine believes in the emperor." There is nothing in this world that cannot be found out, the key is whether the emperor wants to investigate.
As if the queen didn't hear the conversation between the two, she turned to the two frightened eunuchs and said, "What are you two thinking, what's wrong?"
"Back to the Empress, the servants remembered a few things," replied the eunuch, who seemed calmer. "At that time, the servants took the soil directly from the steward's office. Later, they met three acquaintances on the road. Say a few words."
"What you said is the truth. If it's not true, Ben Gong will directly stick..." The Queen glanced at Zhuang Luoyan's bulging belly and swallowed the words abruptly, "You should keep your head steady."
"The slaves must not dare to lie. These three are Xiaopingzi from the Shangshi Bureau, Yurong from the Huanyi Bureau, and... Xiaoxizi, the eunuch who sweeps away in the palace of the concubine Xiangui." When it comes to the concubine Xiangui, the little eunuch is a little scared. , buried his head a little lower, "Xiao Xizi also said at the time that Concubine Zhao had a lot of work, and it was so frustrating to plant potted flowers."
"What a slacker, the master dares to speak up," the queen sneered, "come here, bring all three of them here."
Feng Jin held the teacup and added: "Call the noble concubine Xian."
After a while, Concubine Xian arrived. When the other three came in, they were dragged by several eunuchs, and they seemed to be hit by a board.
When Concubine Xiangui saw the three of them, her face was as usual, and she even showed some disgust because of the smell of blood, and covered the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. She thought that the emperor asked her to come because she had the right to assist in the harem, so she smiled and said, "I don't know what the emperor called a concubine, what is it?"
Looking at Concubine Xian Gui's appearance, Zhuang Luoyan thought, either this matter is related to Concubine Xian Gui's facial features, or Concubine Xian Gui is the greatest acting emperor in the harem.
"Do you know this eunuch?" Feng Jin pointed at the eunuch named Xiaoxizi and asked blankly.
Concubine Xian Gui took a closer look, shook her head and said, "Go back to the emperor, who this servant is, the concubine really doesn't know."
"Xian Guifei, this person is the eunuch in your palace," the queen said slowly, "this person may be an evil slave who wants to harm Concubine Zhao's miscarriage."
After hearing this, Concubine Xian Gui suddenly understood. The emperor called her to Shixing Shixing to ask her guilt. Her complexion changed, and she knelt down with a puff: "Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't recognize this little eunuch."
Not to mention whether this little Xizi is from her palace, even if she is from her palace, how would she know a Sasao eunuch, who is going to frame her in this matter
The palace maid who knelt down with Concubine Xiangui carefully looked at Xiaoxizi and said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, slave... slave and maid have something to report."
"Say," Feng Jin said coldly.
"The servant recognizes this little xizi. He was transferred to our palace by the provincial government a few days ago. When Qian Wanyi was promoted to the throne, the servant took the congratulations from our empress. At that time, this little xizi was not far away. After a fall, the slave took one more look. So this little Xizi used to be an errand in Changtian Tower."
The Queen of "Changtianlou" looked at this little happy child with some surprise. The Xu family originally lived in the Changtian Building, but after the Xu family was rejected by the emperor, Qian Wanyi was in charge. Then this matter...
After hearing this, this little Xizi kept shouting grievances, only saying that she did nothing wrong, and she didn't know any harmful drugs.
"Let Changtianlou search, I remember that there are a lot of books in Changtianlou," Feng Jin said with a sullen face, "You can turn Changtianlou upside down, you don't need to worry about it, just find the things."
The Queen knew very well that when Mrs. Xu loved to read books and the emperor favored her, she gave many books to Changtianlou, published poetry books, and other rare books, including medical books.
After a while, Qian Wanyi came over and knelt down with red eyes, but because the emperor's face was too gloomy, she didn't shout, so she had to keep kneeling. Listening to the sound of footsteps coming and going, and the three prisoners behind her who couldn't even kneel, her face turned pale.
An hour later, Gao Dezhong walked in hurriedly, with a calm expression on his face: "Report to the emperor, the Imperial Guard found a medical book in a vase in Qian Wanyi's bedroom. There are traces of recent reading on the medical book. The medicinal properties of the magic formula are very similar to those found in flower pots."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room changed their faces, and Concubine Xian Gui wanted to strangle Qian Wanyi to death. She is the only one who keeps the prince in this harem. Now if something happens to Zhuang Luoyan's child, I'm afraid that she will be the first one to think of her. Although she hates this child, she will not be stupid enough to touch this child, otherwise even if Zhuang Luoyan's child is gone, she will be unlucky. What good does that do to her, it's just a wedding dress for her.
Qian Wanyi, this bitch!
