When Lin Jiao returned to the house, Pei Yuan had not returned yet.
"Has the prince sent a message to tell you when he will be back?"
After dinner, Lin Jiao asked Xuan Feng who was standing at the door while thinking about the open spaces near the city gate.
"No."
Xuanfeng shook his head, "I saw Xuanwu when I first came back. He came back to get something for the prince. It seems that the prince will not be able to come back tonight."
The prince is in Liangzhou, and if he doesn't come back for dinner at night, he will have someone come back to tell the princess.
Why didn't you say anything today?
Are you too busy?
"Get something?"
Lin Jiao frowned, "Do you know what he asked Xuanwu to come back to get?"
Xuanfeng shook his head, "I didn't see it, and Xuanwu didn't say anything."
Lin Jiao sighed, "I understand, you all should go and rest."
Knowing that Pei Yuan might not come back, Lin Jiao felt a little unmotivated and went to bed early.
Pei Yuan came back late at night.
After asking the servants waiting in the yard, Pei Yuan felt relieved and entered the house after knowing that Lin Jiao was already asleep.
After Lin Jiao became pregnant, she became more lethargic.
She had a busy day today and slept heavily at night. She didn't know Pei Yuan was back.
Before coming back, Pei Yuan went to the space to take a bath. Now he fell on the kang and carefully held Lin Jiao in his arms.
He didn't dare to use too much force for fear of waking people up.
Now his voice is afraid of scaring Lin Jiao.
The next day.
Before dawn, Pei Yuan left.
When Lin Jiao woke up, the quilt around her had already become cold. If she hadn't seen the hairpin lying next to her, she wouldn't have known that Pei Yuan had come back.
"Princess, there is news from Xiao Shitou."
Xuanfeng's voice sounded outside the door.
"knew."
Lin Jiao quickly came out of the room and took the letter from Xuanfeng.
"The princess finally couldn't hold it any longer."
Lin Jiao's lips curled into a sneer.
When Little Moon was injured before, Lin Jiao asked Little Shitou how he wanted to avenge his sister. Little Shitou wanted to kill the princess with his own hands.
When Lin Jiao was about to ask someone to take action, she suddenly discovered that the princess actually had connections with Zhao Qian and Northern Xinjiang.
Not knowing the conspiracy of the princess who suddenly came to Liangzhou, Lin Jiao left her alone temporarily to see what the princess wanted to do.
"Want to poison the water sources of Liangzhou people?"
This is no easy task.
"Yes."
Xuanfeng nodded, "Princess, do you want to tell the prince about this?"
"This is no small matter."
"Do you know where the prince is?"
Lin Jiao asked Xuanfeng.
Xuanfeng stopped talking.
The prince seems to be very busy these two days, and there is no time for anyone to send a message. They don't know where to find the prince.
"Since I can't find the prince, how can I tell him?"
Lin Jiao looked at Xuanfeng.
Jing Nuan stood aside and saw that Xuan Feng was speechless by Lin Jiao's questions, and did not speak for Xuan Feng.
This idiot, didn't you see that the princess was a little angry with the prince?
How dare you mention the prince at this time.
"It's okay for Xiao Shitou's people to just stare at the princess. If she really wants to poison her, Xiao Shitou can't stop her.
Xuanfeng, arrange for someone to follow this person secretly, and once you find someone taking action, arrest him immediately, and you must take the stolen goods."
Lin Jiao said coldly.
"yes."
Xuanfeng immediately took the order and went down to make arrangements.
There must be no problem with the water source.
When Xuanfeng left, Lin Jiao's expression did not get much better.
Jing Nuan came over and poured a glass of warm water for Lin Jiao, "Princess, please have breakfast first. There was a new cook in the house yesterday.
The honey rolls we make are good, you can try them."
"Has the chef changed in the house?"
Lin Jiao asked.
The pink honey rolls are topped with chopped candied dates. Just looking at them makes me want to take a bite.
"I changed it to another one. The previous cook had something to do with his family and left. Uncle Liu picked this one after several days. Uncle Liu has tasted his cooking and his skills are much better than that of the previous cook."
Jing Nuan said, serving another bowl of porridge to Lin Jiao.
Lin Jiao picked up a honey roll and was about to eat it. Just as she was about to put the sweet honey roll into her mouth, Lin Jiao smelled a special smell.
It's so light that if she hadn't been particularly sensitive to odors after pregnancy, she probably wouldn't have been able to smell it.
There was something wrong with the taste. Lin Jiao suddenly felt sick in her stomach. She covered her mouth and ran out to vomit it out.
"Princess, what's wrong with you?"
Jing Nuan was frightened.
Lin Jiao has never vomited since she became pregnant.
Why did you vomit suddenly?
Someone quickly prepared some warm water for Lin Jiao to rinse her mouth with. Jingnuan waited until Lin Jiao felt more comfortable, then carefully helped her up, and someone quickly called Divine Doctor Liu over.
Lin Jiao walked over, sat on a chair, pointed at the honey roll on the dining table not far away, and said, "There's something wrong with that honey roll."
Have a problem with honey rolls?
Jing Nuan was shocked.
"It's impossible. The food you eat, Princess, has been poisoned by the servants."
Just at this time, Divine Doctor Liu was called over. Lin Jiao said directly to Divine Doctor Liu: "Doctor Liu, please take a look at this honey roll. I think there is something wrong with it."
Doctor Liu was also shocked. Someone dared to poison the princess's food?
"Okay, I'll take a look right now."
Doctor Liu worshiped a piece of honey roll, took out his medicine box, and tinkered with it for a while.
After half an hour, Divine Doctor Liu looked at the liquid in the porcelain bottle, his face turned slightly dark.
"The princess is right. This honey roll is indeed poisonous. Because the toxin is relatively mild, it doesn't matter if a person eats it once. However, the poison has a dark side, that is, it can make people addicted.
If a person eats too much, his body will collapse after a year and a half.
And if the princess is pregnant, it doesn’t take a year and a half, and the baby in the princess’s belly will be unbearable after one month.”
"People who poison themselves really have deep thoughts."
Jing Nuan was also shocked. If the princess hadn't discovered that there was something wrong with the honey roll, if the princess had eaten the honey roll today and become addicted, the consequences would be...
Jing Nuan didn’t dare to think about it.
"Doctor Liu, is this poison hidden in the secret scroll, or is it on the surface of the honey scroll?"
Lin Jiao asked.
If it is inside the honey roll, it means it was poisoned when it was made.
If the poison is placed on the surface of the honey roll, it is the poison that was added after preparation.
"This should be inside the honey roll."
Doctor Liu looked at it a few more times and said.
"Is it the new cook?"
Jing Nuan said.
Lin Jiao was not sure either, "Jingnuan, please bring people to control the people in the kitchen and those who came into contact with my breakfast today. Go and see now. Apart from me, who else has eaten these honey rolls?"
It would be okay if it was just for her.
If everyone in the house eats it...
Lin Jiao's face looked a little pale, and Doctor Liu quickly came over and took Lin Jiao's pulse.
"There is nothing wrong with the princess's pulse. She may be too worried about the people in the house, so her body can't bear it, which is why she looks bad."
Doctor Liu said: "Princess, don't worry, this poison will not cause any harm to the body if consumed once. I will prescribe a detoxification prescription in a while. You can drink it once and you will be fine."
In this way, Lin Jiao was relieved.
Lin Jiao nodded. Just as she took the water from Jing Nuan, Xuan Feng ran back from outside and said, "The prince is back."
