Chapter 190: The Storm Is Coming

If you can't tell from the pulse, you can only check the things around you.

Several people checked the things in the palace this time. Fortunately, Fu Jingchao said that he liked peace and quiet, so there were not many maids serving in the palace, especially the study and bedrooms. Without his permission, the maids and eunuchs did not dare to enter without his permission.

This movement did not attract any attention.

Shen Xingwan first checked the incense in the room and found that there was nothing wrong with it.

"Did it come from the food you ate?" Shen Xingwan wondered.

Hong Ling shook her head, "Since we discovered something was wrong, we have been very careful with the food we put in our mouths. We have checked it carefully and there are no problems."

It was a deadlock for a while, and Chanyi didn't detect anything wrong.

Fu Jingchao took Shen Xingwan's hand and said, "It's hard to see us again. Let's sit down and talk."

As for the poison thing, if he really can't find out, he will find a way to leave the palace.

Whoever makes it impossible for him to live, whoever he fights with! Don't even think about it...

Shen Xingwan was pulled by him to sit by the window of the study room, sighing, "Why do you think you are so miserable all of a sudden? When we first met, His Royal Highness was still the arrogant one."

"Then were you fascinated by me at that time?" Fu Jingchao looked at him expectantly.

"No, I sometimes think you're pretending." Shen Xingwan hit him mercilessly, still scanning the room with his eyes, trying to find out what was wrong.

Soon it was lunch time, and the dishes gifted by the Queen Mother were delivered. Shen Xingwan stayed here to eat with Fu Jingchao.

There is no need for maids to wait on you when eating. Hong Ling uses a silver needle to test the poison of every dish. Fu Jingchao is really cautious when eating.

The weather in June is like a child's face that changes at a moment's notice. The sun is still shining brightly in the morning, but it's cloudy in the afternoon.

"It looks like it's going to rain." Shen Xingwan looked out the window.

The light in the room instantly dimmed.

Soon a palace maid came in to light a lamp. She first lit the glass lamp placed on the desk. The small lamp was bright and bright, illuminating the desk instantly.

But one lamp is not enough to illuminate the whole room. On the walls on both sides of the study, there are beautiful candlesticks with carefully carved candles placed on them.

The palace maid raised her hand to light the candle, and instantly the whole room was illuminated by daylight.

The candles used in the palace are naturally the best candles. Not only do they have no peculiar smell, they also have a light fragrance.

After lighting the lamps, the ladies withdrew.

There was a thunderstorm outside very soon. Hong Ling glanced worriedly and said, "With such heavy rain, it will be very inconvenient when I go back later."

"Then stay." Fu Jingchao said, "Stay overnight in the palace."

"I don't dare." Probably because he had watched too many palace fighting dramas in his previous life, Shen Xingwan was quite in awe of this deep palace.

"The Queen Mother has called you in, and someone will not be so crazy as to attack you." Fu Jingchao reassured.

He was very calm from the beginning to the end, whether he was seriously injured or poisoned under house arrest.

After experiencing so many things, His Highness the Crown Prince, who was so high-spirited and arrogant in the past, has finally lost his edge and become more mature and steady.

Shen Xingwan couldn't take his eyes away from the two beautifully made candles.

Hong Ling looked at her doubtfully, "Does the girl also think the candlestick is beautiful?"

Everything in the palace is indeed the best, even the candlesticks for candles are carefully designed and very beautiful.

Smelling the very light fragrance, Shen Xingwan said, "Do all the candles in the palace smell so good?"

"I heard that in order to cover up the smell of the candle itself, spices were added to the candles in the palace when they were made," Hong Ling explained.

Shen Xingwan withdrew his gaze, wondering if he was too sensitive.

Soon someone came from the Queen Mother and informed Shen Xingwan that it was getting late and it was time for her to leave the palace.

Chanyi, who found nothing, used her last resort to cut Fu Jingchao's wrist with a knife, took a small tube of blood and took it away.

I hope I can find something out of the blood. This is the last resort.

Fu Jingchao sent her to the door in a wheelchair, "Just wait for me outside. I will come out to find you soon."

Shen Xingwan bent down and pulled the blanket on his legs, "Don't act recklessly. Now is not the time to act rashly."

Fu Jingchao's eyes darkened slightly, "I have a sense of propriety."

Shen Xingwan turned around and looked at the room that was brightly lit into daylight, but he still felt something was wrong in his heart.

Fu Jingchao followed her gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Xingwan's eyes moved slightly, "I want to take away a candle. It's best not to be discovered."

"Do you suspect there is something wrong with the candle?" Fu Jingchao said in a deep voice.

Shen Xingwan shook his head, "It's hard to say."

Hong Ling quickly blew out the burning candle, cut off a piece, and mixed it with the fresh toys that Shen Xingwan brought out of the palace, making it inconspicuous at all.

Then light the candle again.

"I'm leaving."

Shen Xingwan took Chanyi to the Queen Mother's Palace, and Fu Jingchao sat in front of the door and watched her go away.

The rain was still heavy, and Shen Xingwan came to the Queen Mother's Palace holding an umbrella, and together with the old lady, he saluted and said goodbye to the Queen Mother.

The entire Cining Palace was lit up in daylight, and many candles specially made by the palace were lit in the palace.

The Queen Mother rewarded them with many things and asked them to be careful on the road.

Shen Xingwan was completely absent-minded. Fortunately, the Queen Mother had nothing to say to her. She was mainly talking to the old lady.

The two of them were quickly escorted to the palace gate by the female officer beside the Queen Mother. Because of the heavy rain, the Queen Mother specially gave them a sedan to sit in.

When leaving the palace, it went smoothly, because the female officials beside the Queen Mother followed. The guards at the door only took a symbolic look at the things they brought out.

As soon as he left the palace gate, he transferred to his own carriage.

Mrs. Shen's spirit relaxed and she looked extremely tired.

"It's been too long since I've been in the palace, so I'm really not used to it."

Back then, she was considered a frequent visitor to the palace.

"Is there any result?" Mrs. Shen was still very concerned about Fu Jingchao's affairs.

Shen Xingwan hesitated for a moment, "It's hard to say..."

Mrs. Shen, "Does that mean there is something gained?"

"You can't be sure until you go back and check carefully." Shen Xingwan said cautiously.

At the same time, many people paid attention to their seemingly ordinary trip to the palace.

At least all the wealthy nobles in Shengjing have received the news.

The past that had been silent for many years was recalled again.

The Empress Xie back then was like a dragon or a phoenix among people. Now the little Empress Xie is far behind in terms of means.

Mrs. Shen is both the daughter-in-law of the Shen family and the daughter of the Xie family. Things happened to the former Crown Prince and Queen Xie one after another, but after the emperor ascended the throne, they...

The old lady fled to the south of the Yangtze River overnight, feeling depressed and unable to leave the world.

Coming back at this juncture, it's hard not to think too much.

Moreover, in this year's Spring Festival, the Shen family, which had not been born for a long time, sent several children of the Shen family to participate.

That Shen Mochen is very outstanding.

Does this announce the return of the once most powerful clan, the Shen clan?

Many people smell the coming storm.
