Could it be yesterday... She thought that yesterday afternoon she had been teasing the third prince and kissing each other... Yun Xiyao's face became paler and paler.
"Bring it to me to see!" Dongfang Chen stretched out his hand.
The imperial doctor stood up and handed a powder box and rouge box wrapped in a white handkerchief to the eunuch beside Dongfang Chen...
Dongfang Chen looked at the powder box and rouge box with the eunuch's hand, and then looked at Yun Xiyao: "Where did this powder box and rouge box come from, and who might have come into contact with them?"
"Yes...it was issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs last month. The only people who can contact it are Linglong and Xiangqiong, oh, and Aunt Xue, but it can't be them." Yun Xiyao's face was full of confusion.
While they were talking, the other three imperial doctors also came out and bowed to report: "Your Majesty, no poison has been found elsewhere."
Dongfang Chen's eyes flashed slightly and he said in a deep voice: "Concubine Shu, let someone take them to the rooms of Aunt Xue, Linglong and Xiangqiong to check again." After saying that, Dongfang Chen turned to the little eunuch beside him, "Send someone to go there.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs will bring the servant who is responsible for supplying rouge powder to the palace."
Yun Xiyao's face was pale and almost crumbling. After thinking for a while, she asked a young eunuch from Shuyan Palace to take four imperial doctors to the room of Nanny Xue and the others to check. The young eunuch next to Dongfang Chen also immediately sent someone to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
As the person who took the order left, the room fell into a depressing silence again.
After not sleeping all night, Dongfang Chen felt a little sleepy, so he supported his head with his hands and closed his eyes to rest, while Yun Xiyao was like a lifeless wooden figure, sitting blankly on the chair with a dull expression.
It was another half cup of tea when the four imperial doctors returned. Seeing Dongfang Chen taking a nap, they hesitated and stood quietly.
"Tell me. Have you found anything?" Dongfang Chen closed his eyes and said slowly.
The four imperial doctors looked stern. One of them stepped forward and bowed: "No poison was found in the three rooms."
Dongfang Chen gave a faint "hmm" and continued to close his eyes and rest.
Everyone held their breath and concentrated, not daring to breathe. In this silence, An Fuhai went and came back.
Finally, an announcement came from outside the door: "The person in charge of rouge powder from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has arrived."
Dongfang Chen slowly opened his eyes, then sat up straight and said in a deep voice: "Let them come in!"
A middle-aged eunuch and two young eunuchs walked in with pale faces and a hint of anxiety. They knelt on the ground and saluted, their voices trembling with nervousness.
Although the eunuch who called them did not say why, they had already heard that the third prince was poisoned, so they expected that if the emperor called them here at this time, it would be up to no good.
"Tell me! Who gave you the courage to poison the rouge powder supplied to Concubine Shu?" Dongfang Chen took a sip of tea, and then spoke slowly, with a hint of coolness in his voice.
The three eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs trembled slightly, and the leading middle-aged eunuch said with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, this is unfair. Even if you give me ten courages, I will not dare to do such a thing."
"You didn't do it, who did it? The poison was found in the rouge powder." Dongfang Chen asked coldly.
"Your Majesty, when slaves distribute perfume and rouge to each palace, they are all checked by the female officers of each palace. Only if there are no problems will they be taken away." The middle-aged eunuch said in a trembling voice.
Dongfang Chen frowned, thinking that this was the truth, and his expression suddenly relaxed. After thinking about it, he looked at Yun Xiyao. The meaning was self-evident. He was not from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so the suspect was still in Shuyan Palace.
