Mrs. Jingrou must have not rested well, so her face looks extremely pale.
She was used to using the soothing incense prepared by Lin Mengya. She glanced at it, nodded, and allowed Lin Mengya to put the incense bait into the incense burner.
After getting up and walking to the incense burner in front of the two men, Lin Mengya opened the box and randomly took one and put it into the incense burner.
The hot charcoal instantly evaporates and releases the fragrant and pleasant flavor of the bait.
It brings wisps of warmth to people's hearts.
The lady gradually relaxed her brows, and even the king seemed to be affected, and the expression on his face was no longer so tense.
Lin Mengya, on the other hand, frowned. ??
"Madam, there's something wrong with this fragrance!"
After taking a deep breath, Lin Mengya's expression changed drastically and she drank in a low voice.
He immediately took the tea bowl in front of the lady and completely extinguished the charcoal fire in the incense burner.
"What's wrong?"
Even Madam was startled by this turn of events and couldn't help but look at Lin Mengya in confusion.
This girl has always been steady. For her to be like this, something big must have happened.
"Please Madam, please forgive me! There is something wrong with this scented bait slave. For the safety of both of you, I'd like to ask Dr. Wang to come and examine it together! Ning Qiu, watch the spice box and no one is allowed to come near it!"
The seriousness on Lin Mengya's face also made the king and his wife realize that something was wrong.
Mrs. Jingrou looked at the king, and after he nodded, she sent someone to ask for the doctor who was on duty in the palace.
After a while, Doctor Wang hurried over.
At this time, Lin Mengya was kneeling on the ground and never touched the incense burner or spice box.
"Old minister, I'm here to see the king. I don't know that the king has urgently summoned me to come, but he is feeling sick?"
As a royal doctor, he naturally has to serve the royal family.
However, this king has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and there are many capable people around him, so he is rarely used in any way.
Now that he was called here in such a hurry, it was indeed a little different.
"Helan, people are already here, tell me quickly, what is going on?"
The king ignored these trivial matters, so Mrs. Jingrou always spoke.
Since the question was asked about herself, Lin Mengya did not dare to neglect it.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I think there is something wrong with the aroma of this bait. It seems that there is a slight fishy smell. This bait is made by my own hands, and there is absolutely no such thing. So I think, is it fragrant?
Bait, what's the problem? Although it's just a small matter, it concerns the queen and the king, so I have to be careful."
Lin Mengya spoke extremely sincerely, without any excuse at all because she made this thing.
However, what she said was true.
As long as it matters Your Majesty, every little thing has become a big deal.
Mrs. Jingrou thought what she said was polite, so she asked Lin Mengya and Dr. Wang to examine it together.
Only half of the incense bait in the incense burner was burned. Doctor Wang carefully took it out, put it in his hand, and sniffed it gently.
The relaxed expression became more serious.
Lin Mengya was also a little uneasy. After looking at each other with Dr. Wang, the two of them started to care about each other.
"Are all the other scented baits here?"
"Yes, I don't dare to make the decision without permission. I have ordered people to watch carefully and no one can touch it."
Ning Qiu immediately sent the spice box over. The box was under the eyes of the king and his wife. No one had the ability or courage to touch it.
Doctor Wang opened it and looked at it, his brows getting tighter and tighter, and finally, it seemed like a knot had been twisted.
"What's going on? Dr. Liu Wang, is there something wrong with this spice?"
The atmosphere in the dormitory was extremely serious, and no one dared to say a word.
Even the king, who had been reading, cast his eyes on Dr. Liu Wang and Lin Mengya.
There was a bit of impatience in the cold eyes, which made Doctor Liu feel frightened.
"Madam, this spice seems to have been mixed with poison! What exactly the poison is, I have to let me go back and examine it carefully. However, this incense cannot be used."
Someone actually dares to poison the spices!
Everyone present felt a wave of cold air reaching from their backs to Tianling Gai.
With a 'snap' sound, the book in the king's hand was slammed onto the table.
Everyone was so frightened that they knelt down, and no one dared to say a word.
"check."
The cold voice hides murderous intent, like a piece of ice under the hood of the pocket.
The first person to bear the brunt was naturally Lin Mengya.
However, she did not say a word to defend herself. Instead, after kowtowing, she looked at the king and his wife with a very sincere tone.
"Since the spices were made by the slaves themselves, no matter what the reason was that they were mixed with poison, the slaves are responsible for the improper storage. I also ask the madam and the king to punish the slaves."
Lin Mengya's initiative to admit her mistake made it impossible for Madam and the King to punish her too severely.
Moreover, she was the first person to point out that there was something wrong with spices.
Even a stern person like the king can still speak.
"You are indeed responsible for this. Get up first. You said you made this incense yourself. Did you find anything before you came?
What’s abnormal?”
Lin Mengya was the first person to handle it. Naturally, if there was anything abnormal, she would be the one to notice it.
He lowered his head and thought for a while before speaking slowly.
"I mixed the spices, and then the people in Fengyu Garden made them. I brought them as soon as they were smoked and dried. By the way, before I left, I tried some with the palace people who made them, and there was no problem. It's just that it didn't work.
I don’t know why, but when I got here, I was poisoned.”
If there is no problem when you take it out of Fengyu Garden, then it means that something went wrong on the road.
Lin Mengya thought about it again, with a look of sudden realization on her face, but after glancing at the madam and the king, she swallowed the words that came to her lips.
"If you remember something, just say it."
Madam didn't notice that he hesitated, but after Lin Mengya looked at her timidly, she spoke with some embarrassment.
"Except for those of us at Feng Yuyuan, this incense has been touched by a palace maid named Yuanshu on the road. Others have never been seen again."
The name Yuanshu made Mrs. Jingrou's face look a little ugly. ??
Because she was the dowry of the eldest queen and had some influence in the palace, even Mrs. Jingrou looked at her a lot in the first few years after she entered the palace.
Now, she was the one who was so lucky that she bumped into it.
Some of the things in it will make people think a lot.
"You girl, how can you talk nonsense!"
Madam Jingrou was a bit harsh, and it was because of her relationship with the eldest queen that she received a lot of criticism from the king.
Now that he has a relationship with someone close to the queen, he is naturally a little worried.
But Lin Mengya kowtowed repeatedly and said that everything she said was true.
Now things were getting a little difficult, and Mrs. Jingrou had no choice but to turn to the king for help.
"This matter is entirely up to the king to decide."
The bedroom fell into silence. Lin Mengya knelt on the ground and accepted the scrutiny of the king's eyes.
The latter's eyes were cold and he didn't know what he was thinking.
He just looked at Lin Mengya thoughtfully, and then at Dr. Liu Wang.
"Invite the great witch doctor to come over. I want to know immediately what this poison is."
With the king's words, this matter has been concluded.
The investigation must be carried out strictly, and this great witch doctor has served the royal family for generations, and he cannot be more impartial.
Moreover, he is well versed in the principles of poison, and no poison in the world can escape his eyes.
If there is poison in the spices, it will be harmful to the king and his wife.
No matter who he is, he will get to the bottom of it.< br>
The great witch doctor is the patron saint of the royal family. Calling him here means that the matter will definitely be found out.
Mrs. Jingrou's face was slightly worried, but after her eyes fell on the spice box, she became extremely determined.
He just poisoned her and tried to kill her, but he actually wanted to take action against the king.
She will never let this matter go!
"Until the matter is found out, I can only aggrieve you. Someone, take Helan to the side hall. No one is allowed to visit without my order and the king's order."
"Yes, I obey your order."
With her head lowered, Lin Mengya stood up from the ground.
He followed the chamberlain obediently out of the dormitory, but was taken to an inconspicuous small side hall.
In addition to a bed, there are only two chairs and a table inside.
"Miss Helan, please."
Those who can serve beside the king are considered auspicious.
Even though Lin Mengya is now imprisoned, that person is still polite and shows no sign of neglect.
"Thank you, sir. By the way, sir, the spice box is of great importance. Please take care of it for Helan."
The chamberlain smiled and accepted her words.
What she said and did, in the eyes of outsiders, looked like an innocent person trying her best to clear her name.
Even these few words will reach the king's ears.
Sighing, Lin Mengya walked to the side hall obediently, with her back to the window, as if there were thousands of worries weighing on her heart.
With keen hearing, I heard the footsteps gradually leaving.
In the dimness, Lin Mengya, who was originally downcast, now had a meaningful smile on her face.
Everything is going according to her plan.
I believe that tomorrow, this big show will be particularly exciting.
That Yuanshu will become their key evidence to overthrow the Queen.
When the time comes, she wants to see how His Highness will choose between the king's trust and her mother's innocence.
Although the small side hall was not as comfortable and comfortable as Fengyu Garden, it was fortunately quiet and clean, and there was no shortage of everything. She lived a very leisurely life.
From the window, she could vaguely see the situation on the other side of the dormitory.
Not long ago, a group of people dressed a little strangely went towards the dormitory.
Presumably, it must be the great witch doctor.
The sun was setting at this time and night was about to fall.
Lin Mengya counted the time, straightened her clothes, and kept pacing back and forth where she could see the window.
