Chapter 365 Isn’t there enough food in the imperial dining room?
Chu Jingxian said in a deep voice: "Prescribe the prescription first!"
The two imperial doctors discussed briefly and immediately prescribed the prescription.
In the harem, these poisons, medicines, etc., they are already very calm as imperial doctors. They performed acupuncture before, but now they are cooperating with prescribing, and they are very skilled.
Chu Jingxian handed the prescription to the person behind Qin Yuyi and said: "Go to the imperial pharmacy immediately to get the medicine!"
Both imperial doctors came with assistants. They said they were assistants, but they were actually apprentices, and they had been apprentices for several years.
Chu Jingxian asked their assistant to get the medicine, obviously because there were other things to deal with, and at the same time, he also wanted the two to supervise each other. Qin Yuyi and Li Yuyi didn't think it was inappropriate. On the contrary, he felt more relieved and ordered
He nodded and gave his assistant a few words of caution.
The two assistants left, and Chu Jingxian said solemnly to the two imperial doctors: "Please help me check these foods!"
Although the two imperial doctors did not say how they were poisoned, it is normal to check the food book.
They took out their silver needles and tried the desserts and vegetables one by one.
Lotus cake, horseshoe cake, dragon beard cake, rose cake, these are all no problem.
Sautéed bones, no problem.
Dongpo Pork with Abalone Sauce, no problem.
Five-spice smoked fish, no problem.
When roasting deer breast, when the silver needle is inserted into the meat, when you pull it out after a while, the tail of the needle will be black.
Doctor Qin's expression changed slightly, and he tried a few more sticks. Among the few, only the bottom two were not poisonous.
The personal maid looked at Chu Jingxian with frightened eyes, her meaning was very clear, she just said that the empress has been so kind to you, why did you poison the empress!
This is the nun whom Concubine De married into the palace. She was Concubine De's personal maid at home before. After entering the palace, she vowed not to marry and has been serving Concubine De. Her affection for Concubine De is no less than that of Chu Jingxian, or even more.
.
Chu Jingxian didn't pay attention to the questioning and angry eyes of his personal nanny. His eyes slowly swept over the palace servants who were kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice: "Here comes someone!"
Previously, Chu Jingxian ordered Zhaoqing Palace to be sealed off, and no one was allowed in or out. This order was given to the Ziyi Guards.
This is the harem. Even the Imperial Guards cannot come here at will. However, the safety of the harem is a top priority. Therefore, there are special Imperial Guards on duty at fixed points. These Imperial Guards wear purple clothes.
, wear light armor and hold a sword.
They are specifically responsible for the safety of the harem. They must be in a team every time they go out. They cannot act alone or leave the team alone.
As soon as he gave the order, a purple guard from the primary school came in with two purple guards.
"Your Highness!"
Chu Jingxian pointed to the two palace maids and the eunuch, and said to the young schoolmaster: "Lock these three people up and keep them under strict supervision!"
These three people are all prestigious maids and eunuchs around Concubine De.
Of course, if this were not the case, they would not be able to appear in the inner temple.
These are all served closely to the concubine.
At this time, a high-pitched voice announced: "The Emperor has arrived!"
Concubine De was poisoned, and the King of Chu sent an order to seal the Zhaoqing Palace. This incident was not trivial, and even the emperor was alarmed.
Everyone knelt down.
The bright yellow dragon robe carries the majesty of the Heavenly Family, which makes people dare not look up. The majestic voice said solemnly: "Vice President Qin, what's going on?"
Imperial Physician Qin is the deputy director of the Imperial Hospital, and the emperor saw him at a glance.
Qin Yu's doctor said: "Back to the emperor, Empress Dowager De was poisoned because she ingested poisonous food. She was treated promptly. Although she was injured, her life is fine!"
The emperor was very angry.
Although he has no feelings for the women in the harem, he still has a good impression of Concubine De. She does not fight or compete with her, although it is because she has no children, and Chu Jingxian, who is named by her name, is not like the others who compete with each other.
Like a chicken-eyed son, Zhaoqing Palace became a rare peaceful place for the harem.
Therefore, he would come here once or twice a month. As he got older, he naturally no longer had any intimate matters. He just came to sit and chat. The atmosphere was peaceful and no one was trying to be clever, which made him very comfortable.
However, such a non-competitive woman was actually poisoned by others.
Who is she disturbing?
Who is Lao Qi bothering again? He specifically picked Lao Qi to do it when he entered the palace!
"Who poisoned you?"
I was just about to drag people down, but no one dared to move because the emperor arrived.
The eldest palace maid who was about to be dragged down suddenly raised her head and cried: "Your Majesty, your Majesty's food has always been fine. This time, she was poisoned after eating the food that His Highness brought in from outside the palace!"<
/p>
Food brought in from outside the uterus?
The emperor frowned and said in a deep voice: "Isn't the food in the imperial kitchen not enough? Do you need to bring it from outside the palace?"
The eldest palace maid cooed: "Your Highness said the food outside the palace is delicious!"
She suddenly turned her head and said to Chu Jingxian: "Your Highness, although your Majesty and you are not biological mother and son, she has always been kind to you. As long as she can give you, she will not be stingy. Why, why did you bring her from outside the palace?"
Are you going to give poisonous food to your Majesty? If your Majesty is in trouble, will you be happy, Your Highness?"
The imperial doctor was still there, and the words of the palace maid were so shocking that they resounded in everyone's ears like a thunderclap.
Chu Jingxian narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "You said that this king brought poisonous food to harm the queen?"
The eldest maid burst into tears and cried: "Your Majesty's food has always been tested for poison by a dedicated person, and the food she eats is never of unknown origin. Only the food brought by Your Highness, the Empress is afraid of hurting the relationship between mother and child.
You don’t want people to test poison. But your highness, the empress has already gone to this point, why do you want to harm her? She has not sorry for you!"
The emperor squinted his eyes and watched all this without making a sound.
Chu Jingxian said coldly: "I just said that I would arrest the three of you. Are you going to beat me up now?"
The palace maid cried: "Your Highness, the slaves have been in the palace all the time. The food has nothing to do with the slaves, but the slaves know that people are talking lightly and your Highness wants to arrest them. The slaves have nothing to say! It's just that the empress treats slaves with great kindness and generosity.
However, the empress almost lost her life in His Highness's poisonous food, so I couldn't help it for a moment..."
The poison is indeed in the food. When the eldest palace lady didn't say it, Zhaoqing Palace was in a panic. No one thought about it. But when the eldest palace lady said it, the atmosphere suddenly became weird.
Especially, the emperor is by your side at this time.
Chu Jingxian said coldly: "I want to arrest the three of you because the three of you are the only ones who have come close to the food I brought in!" He pointed at the eldest maid: "These dishes are also for the three of you.
Take it, steam it, heat it and bring it back, and everyone else in Zhaoqing Palace can witness it. If I want to find out the truth, can’t I even catch a single palace official?"
The eldest palace maid sobbed: "Your Highness, all the servants are old people serving the queen. What reason is there for doing this?"
Concubine De's personal maid knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for your Majesty!"
