Unexpectedly, Xi Xiaomeng had a warm face, "I've kept you waiting for a long time. Our trip went well. Did you make something delicious for us to celebrate?"
"Wash up first, change your clothes and come out. You'll have something to eat soon."
Xiang Yining urged them to wash and change clothes.
Ji Ruyan kept the soldier talisman in the space and planned to go to the palace to present it to Emperor Xuan tomorrow. Next, it was time to deal with Hua Hongfang's marriage. He couldn't let someone who belonged to Luo Shunchen be killed by Concubine Xian instead.
My son was taken away!
A night without words.
The next day, after Ji Ruyan presented the things to Emperor Xuan, Emperor Xuan praised her for her speed and ordered the release of the clerks and stewards of Feng's Pharmacy.
And asked the Minister of Civil Affairs to immediately find out who released the scorpion poison in the eight murders outside the palace.
Suddenly, everyone in the entire palace was in panic.
The most nervous one was Concubine De. As soon as the decree was issued, she immediately started spinning around like a headless fly.
What to do?
The eight members of Aunt Zhong’s family died because she asked her concubine Song Wanshi to bring poison to her mother. It was also Mrs. Wan Dehou who personally killed Aunt Zhong beside her.
Once her mother is also imprisoned, she cannot imagine her own fate.
It was her intention to put the blame on Fengjia Pharmacy.
And Aunt Zhong knew too much about them, so she could only silence the whole family and avoid future troubles.
Concubine De sat unsteadily and walked around Guangze Palace.
Mulan, the maid next to her, comforted her and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has ordered a re-investigation, so don't worry so much. I think this matter is serious, so I'd better go to the Concubine Xian first and ask her what to do."
.She was also born to Mrs. Hou, and she will never leave her alone."
"Concubine Xian's slutty hooves actually drove me out of Shangcheng Palace last time. If I go to look for her now, I'm sure I won't be rejected!"
Concubine De's beautiful face showed hatred and unwillingness.
Mulan lowered her head, "I have a plan, I don't know whether to tell it or not."
"Say!"
Concubine De had no idea and just let her speak.
Mulan hurriedly said, "Isn't it better for the queen to just lay the blame for the poison in the palace on Bai Qiu, the maid next to the Xiang concubine? My queen, don't forget, Bai Qiu is a medical girl from the imperial hospital.
."
When Concubine De heard this, her eyes lit up, "Bai Qiu?"
"Do you remember her?"
"A little impression."
Mulan's mouth had a sinister meaning, and then said, "I only need to say that Bai Qiu, a cheap servant, is loyal to protect the Lord. Seeing that Xiang's concubine was thrown into the cold palace, she felt that you would not save her until she died. So she sneaked into the imperial hospital.
Then she stole the scorpion venom and mixed it into the tonic that the empress gave to Madam Hou. As a result, Madam Hou had no appetite that day, so she gave it to Aunt Zhong to eat. As a result, eight members of Aunt Zhong's family died.
”
"Go on!"
After hearing this, Concubine De's expression became calm, and she lost her previous panic.
Mulan nodded, "Madam, as for the matter of Feng's Pharmacy, it was only the people in the Hou Mansion who made random guesses that caused this misunderstanding. For this reason, Madam Hou can suggest that Madam Hou pay some money to Feng's Pharmacy."
”
Concubine De glanced at the maid, and the more she looked at her, the happier she became. She said in a pleasant tone, "Mulan, I still underestimated you! I didn't expect that your brain would not be in vain. If this matter is successfully resolved,
If you do, I will make you a female official of the fifth rank."
