Yun Shang called Qian Yin to put on her clothes and comb her hair. Then someone came to the palace. It was not Liu Wen'an, but the chamberlain beside the queen. "Princess, Princess Qianling had abdominal pain last night. The imperial doctor diagnosed her."
He came out because he was poisoned, and the queen sent a message to the princess to come to the palace."
Yun Shang raised her hand to hold the plum blossom hairpin on her bun, and frowned slightly, as if she was very surprised, "Princess Qianling was poisoned?"
The waiter quickly agreed and said, "Yesterday, the Queen and the Queen summoned everyone who had contact with Princess Qianling. Yesterday, Princess Qianling arrived at the palace, and the Princess personally sent her back to the palace. The Queen said
, the princess is elegant and kind, and she will definitely not do such a thing, but the procedures that should be followed must be followed, otherwise it will be easy to follow the truth. "
"That's it..." Yun Shang narrowed her eyes and nodded, "Then I, the princess, will come with you to the palace."
When Yun Shang arrived at the palace, Yun Guifei's Yunqi Palace was already full of people. The Queen was the first to see Yun Shang, "Is Princess Rui here? Come and sit here." She said.
Then she asked the palace servants to bring a stool. Yun Shang bowed uprightly and then walked to the side and sat down. There was a bit of worry on her face, "I heard early in the morning that Princess Qianling was pregnant.
After being cured of the poison, is Qian Ling okay now?"
"The imperial doctor is treating her. She has had a stomachache all night. I just went to visit her. Her little face is so pale, which is very distressing." The queen's face was also gloomy.
"Have you caught the murderer?" Yun Shang raised his eyes and looked at the people in the palace. In addition to many palace maids and chamberlains, there were also two or three concubines sitting there. Everyone in the room looked a little heavy.
The queen shook her head, "Not yet. Princess Qianling has always been loved by the emperor. Now that something like this has happened, it is really heartbreaking. We must not let the murderer go free." After speaking, the queen turned her eyes and looked to the side.
Some older female officials asked, "Nanny, Qian Ling seemed to have gone to the Xiang Bamboo Hall yesterday. Is the Xiang noble concubine here?"
Xianggui concubine, isn’t that Ning Qian?
Hearing this, Yun Shang was stunned for a moment, and then said to the Queen, "Princess Qianling did arrive at the Xiangzhu Palace with my wife yesterday, but His Majesty was there at that time, and Princess Qianling stayed in His Majesty's arms.
, but it seems that I have never had any contact with the Xianggui concubine."
"The lack of contact does not necessarily rule out the suspicion. I haven't had contact with Princess Qianling yet. It's just that Princess Qianling always likes to eat. I ate some almonds in the concubine's palace. Maybe Princess Qianling is here.
I also had something to eat in the Xiangzhu Hall." A woman dressed slightly enchantingly snorted coldly and responded with some disdain.
Yun Shang saw the queen frowning slightly, as if she was a little displeased, but she just glanced at the woman lightly, and then whispered, "Send someone to the Xiang Bamboo Palace to invite the Xiang noble concubine to come."
Xia Huanyu is not here. Yun Shang secretly thought in her heart that when she received the news today, Luo Qingyan had not yet attacked the morning court. If something happened to Qian Ling since last night, there was no reason why Concubine Yun would not report it.
.And if Concubine Yun reported it to Xia Huanyu, Qianling was Xia Huanyu's most beloved princess in name, so there was no way he wouldn't come and see her.
Yun Shang's mind turned several times, wondering where Xia Huanyu rested yesterday?
Before Yun Shang could find anyone to answer her questions, Xia Huanyu had already walked in, followed by Ning Qian who was wearing plain clothes.
Xia Huanyu seemed a little angry. When he walked into the palace, he ignored the people who knelt down to pay their respects and walked directly towards the charming woman who had spoken before. "Why did you hide it and not tell Qian Ling that something like this happened last night?"
I’m a widower? If I hadn’t gone to the Xiangzhu Hall after I went to court and listened to the Xiang noble concubine, I’m afraid I’d still be kept in the dark.”
The woman seemed to be frightened, and quickly knelt down and said, "Concubine, concubine didn't expect..."
Xia Huanyu was so angry that he raised his foot and kicked the woman, "I didn't expect that? What didn't you expect?" Then he turned to look at the queen, "Where is the imperial doctor? What did the imperial doctor say?"
The queen quickly said, "The imperial doctor is still treating the situation. There was a lot of noise last night. The imperial doctor said that he was afraid of some trouble. Concubine Yun was watching from the back room. Would the emperor want to go in and have a look?"
Xia Huanyu didn't respond and walked towards the back room. The queen followed him into the back room. Yun Shang stood there with her head slightly lowered, looking at Ning Qian quietly. Ning Qian quietly gave Yun Shang a gesture.
He also stood quietly where he was.
The woman who was kicked to the ground gritted her teeth and knelt straight, with a bit of stubbornness in her eyes.
No need to ask, I am afraid that because of the competition for favor in the palace, Concubine Yun sent a palace servant to report Princess Qianling's stomachache.
Huanyu used the method of attracting Yunqi Palace Envoy and deliberately blocked the news.
This woman is probably not going to survive, but looking at her expression, she doesn't seem to realize this yet.
Xia Huanyu's roar suddenly came from the back room, "Give me the best medicine. If it doesn't work, come and see me."
Yun Shang frowned again when she heard the voice. She thought Princess Qianling was just a minor poison, but listening to Xia Huanyu's voice, it seemed a little serious.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Xia Huanyu walking out again, walked up to the woman, kicked her again, and then ordered Liu Wen'an, "Pull this bitch down and lock her up in the cold palace."
Yun Shang saw that the face of the woman who had looked disdainful just now suddenly changed. She looked at Xia Huanyu in disbelief. She could never imagine why her husband, who was still treating each other tenderly on the bed last night, changed in the blink of an eye.
It wasn't until a chamberlain came to pull her arm that she reacted suddenly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I'm wronged. I didn't know that Princess Qianling was so serious. By the way, it was the palace guard.
He said that he looked at the appearance of the palace maid and was bossing her around. It didn’t look like the princess had anything to do with her. The concubine thought that it was Concubine Yun Guifei’s concubine. It was Concubine Yun Guifei who wanted to snatch away His Majesty. His Majesty has been there for more than three months.
I have never come to see my concubine, how could I let her take away this rare opportunity..."
Xia Huanyu frowned and said, "Pull me down, and all the palace servants in the Meigui Palace will be sent to the Huanyi Bureau to do their work."
When the noble lady heard this, she cried even more miserably. She was about to plead for mercy, but the chamberlain stuffed her mouth with a cloth ball and dragged her down.
The queen sighed softly and bowed slightly towards Xia Huanyu, "I failed to manage the concubines in the harem well. I am guilty."
"Now one or two people are saying that they are guilty? What's the use? Why don't we find the murderer quickly?" Xia Huanyu snorted coldly and sat down on the main seat.
The queen agreed, then stood up and said, "The imperial doctor said that Qian Ling ate something poisonous. According to the report from the dark guard who protected Qian Ling yesterday, Qian Ling ate something in Qingya Hall and Prince Rui's Mansion yesterday.
.It’s just that it’s around noon in Qingya Palace. The imperial doctor said that the poison takes effect around two hours. If it’s in Qingya Palace, this time doesn’t match.”
Yun Shang narrowed her eyes. Does this mean that only her Prince Rui Mansion is suspected? Yun Shang sneered in her heart, "My wife and Princess Qian Ling did not know each other before, and Princess Qian Ling came to the mansion yesterday.
When it was served, it came very suddenly. The pastry was originally prepared for my wife to eat, so my wife would not put some poison in the pastry to poison herself."
Xia Huanyu glanced at Yun Shang coldly, "Do you still have the pastry from yesterday?"
"Also, there is no osmanthus in this season. My wife loves to eat osmanthus cake. Yesterday, the prince made this osmanthus cake with great pains and hard work. He had people buy some osmanthus dried from the spice shop in the city to make spices.
, my wife cooked more, and originally planned to give the prince something to eat at dinner time, but she didn’t expect that Princess Qianling came suddenly, but Princess Qianling didn’t finish eating either, so my wife asked someone to go to the mansion to get some.
Come." Yun Shang responded quickly.
Xia Huanyu nodded, "I'll send someone there. Where are the pastries?"
Yun Shang thought for a while and then responded, "It's in the inner room of the courtyard where my wife lives."
When Xia Huanyu heard this, he ordered someone to go to the palace to get it.
Yun Shang's eyes fell on the door of the inner hall, and her eyes flickered slightly. Who asked to sing this play? Is it Concubine Yun? Or the Queen?
Yesterday, when Princess Qianling suddenly came to the palace, she felt that something was wrong, and she was secretly wary, but everything was normal and nothing special happened. Yun Shang was also careful to guard against it.
, for fear that something unexpected might happen to Princess Qianling. Yesterday, everything went smoothly, but unexpectedly something happened.
After a while, the cakes were brought over. Xia Huanyu had people take them into the inner hall and let the imperial doctor examine them carefully. The imperial doctor said there was nothing wrong with the cakes, but Yun Shang did not relax at all.
Sure enough, I heard the queen say quietly, "This pastry looks a little dry. Wouldn't you be thirsty just eating this shriveled pastry?"
Yun Shang smiled and didn't hide it, "She is thirsty. The princess also drank some fruit tea in the palace yesterday, but the fruit tea has already been poured. I'm afraid even the cups and plates have been washed."
The Queen narrowed her eyes, turned to Xia Huanyu and said, "Your Majesty, you might as well have someone search Prince Rui's Mansion again. Just bringing these pastries won't reveal anything."
Xia Huanyu pondered for a moment, and when he saw Yun Shang just sitting silently, he turned his eyes and looked at Yun Shang, "What do you think, Princess Rui?"
Yun Shang smiled, what did she think? The queen had a good idea. By searching the palace, firstly, she could find out the current strength of Prince Rui's palace. Secondly, if she wanted to put something in, it would be easy.
Thinking like this, Yun Shang raised her head and said, "If you don't do anything bad, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. Check it out. I haven't done anything that is harmful to nature, so of course I'm not afraid. I just have a request.
Your Majesty, please send someone whom Your Majesty trusts to investigate. I am afraid that I will be used as a swordsman for no reason." (To be continued)
