Queen Zou immediately agreed to Mrs. Meng's invitation.
She also saw that this matter probably involved the secrets of the Gu and Mu clans, which should not be known to outsiders.
At the same time, she herself was very interested.
You must know that in a sense, these two families are the foundation of Zhao State.
There are many secrets that only they themselves know, and the emperor knows only a limited amount.
And in order to ensure the safety of the country, the emperor would not easily tell others what he knew.
Including the queen.
Queen Zou fiddled with the ring on her hand and whispered, "Does Xiaomu know what is in this syringe?"
Mu Yunhan felt a little regretful.
She didn't know Mrs. Gu would come up with something like this to harm people.
This thing is simply a fatal nightmare for the Mu women.
It should not be known to outsiders, nor should it be allowed to spread to the world.
Empress Zou is eyeing her, and if she can't handle it carefully, the antagonism between them will inevitably aggravate.
She said softly: "Think of it as a poison that can make people die silently."
Queen Zou stared at her for a moment and expressed her belief: "I knew that woman was vicious and shameless, but today I found out that she was so bold and reckless. She is so good, why did she want to harm you?"
Mu Yunhan said: "The reason is because His Majesty did not allow her to show up in public, saying that Mrs. Gu only had me, so she felt hatred in her heart and could not control herself."
Queen Zou sighed: "Such a vicious person cannot be allowed to run wild. She must be punished! How do you want to punish her?"
Mu Yunhan speculated on Empress Zou's thoughts and sighed: "She is my aunt after all. I don't want Alin to be criticized because of me. I also don't want to cause trouble to His Majesty and the Empress because of our husband and wife."
Queen Zou pondered for a moment and said: "We cannot let her go unpunished. This matter is left to me to make the decision for you. Pull out her accomplices and catch them all!"
Mu Yunhan said: "Thank you very much, Madam, for upholding justice."
She looked at the syringe and wanted to take it away: "This poison is very strong and involves some internal matters within the family. Please allow me to take it back for disposal."
Queen Zou pretended not to hear and looked elsewhere, pretending to be deep in thought.
Mu Yunhan repeated it again, and then she said: "Don't worry, I still have to show it to Your Majesty."
At this point, Mu Yunhan knew that he couldn't say any more, so he could only think about getting away quickly and notifying Gu Fenglin and asking him to find a way to take the syringe away.
She stood up to leave, only to hear Empress Zou say slowly: "Xiaomu, don't worry, the existence of priests is the foundation of Zhao State. As long as you are loyal and patriotic, Your Majesty and I will protect you."
"Yes, I rely on the empress." Mu Yunhan exited the palace and ordered someone to try to notify Gu Fenglin immediately.
After a while, Queen Zou came out and the banquet went on as usual.
After the banquet, all the wives said goodbye, and Mu Yunhan followed everyone out of the palace.
The carriage had not gone far when a servant heard: "Your Excellency is here."
Looking back, I saw Gu Fenglin's priest's guard of honor not far behind him.
She felt slightly at ease, and patiently entered the house with Gu Fenglin one behind the other.
The couple met at the hanging flower gate. Gu Fenglin first looked at her: "Are you okay?"
Mu Yunhan smiled and nodded: "I'm fine, that thing..."
Gu Fenglin stretched out his hand and quietly showed her the syringe: "When I learned about this, I immediately informed Your Majesty. Your Majesty immediately went to the Queen in person to get it back and gave it to me."
