Yun Xi has hated Mu Ci for a long time, and she will remember the humiliation she suffered in the Weiyang Palace last time.
The servants of the Imperial Food Bureau had the audacity to deduct the meals from Weiyang Palace, and she was indispensable behind the scenes.
Originally, everything was under her control, but Mu Ci went to the Imperial Dining Bureau for a chance to celebrate the Spring Festival.
She was very annoyed when she heard this, feeling that Mu Ci made such a big move just to show her.
Even so, she was very calm because the emperor hated Mu Ci. In this case, she only had to wait for the emperor to take action and dampen Mu Ci's spirit.
She waited and waited, hoped and hoped. Three days passed and there was no movement from the emperor. She knew something was wrong.
Then she sent someone to investigate and found out that the emperor didn't know anything about it.
No one who was waiting in front of the emperor dared to mention this matter because the emperor had issued a gag order.
At the moment, we can only let the emperor discover the personnel changes in the Imperial Food Bureau by himself.
Yun Xi quickly thought of a good idea...
**
Yanfu Palace, meal time.
Dugu Liancheng took a few bites and found that the food tasted different from before.
"It doesn't taste right." He put down the bowl and chopsticks.
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped forward to reply: "To your Majesty, there have been a lot of changes in the Royal Food Bureau recently. Maybe this is why the taste has changed."
"Why the substitution?" Dugu Liancheng asked casually.
If the imperial chef's cooking skills were getting better and better, there would be nothing to say, but it's a pity that it's the opposite.
"This..." Li Yu didn't dare to tell the truth.
"Say!" Dugu Liancheng saw that Li Yu was hesitant to speak, and his eyes turned cold.
Li Yu hurriedly knelt down on the ground, not daring to look at the emperor, and lowered his head and replied: "There was a small incident in the Imperial Food Bureau three days ago, so a lot of people were replaced at once."
Dugu Liancheng's eyes were half-squinted: "What happened?"
Li Yu hid it and tucked it in, which actually made him interested.
Li Yu was anxious, but he didn't dare not tell the truth, so he said in a squeaky voice: "It's just a trivial matter..."
"Li Yu, tell the truth!" Dugu Liancheng interrupted Li Yu.
Li Yu kept complaining, and he knelt further away before saying: "Yes, it was the palace servants from the Imperial Food Bureau who made things difficult for Yingchun, and Yingchun was beaten half to death. When the Queen Mother found out, she became furious, went to the Imperial Food Bureau, and killed a palace servant on the spot. Later, later
All the slaves involved in the incident lost one of their hands, so the Imperial Food Bureau replaced a group of slaves."
"Mu Ci." A cold smile appeared on Dugu Liancheng's lips: "I should have thought that only she would cause trouble."
Li Yuxin said that the Queen Mother was also protecting her own people, and it was the slaves of the Imperial Food Bureau who started the trouble.
But he didn't dare to tell the truth.
The Emperor was biased against the Queen Mother, so no matter what the Queen Mother did, the Emperor felt that it was the Queen Mother's fault.
After a moment of silence, Dugu Liancheng said again: "Yimuchi's vicious temper only crippled one of the hands of the person involved in the case, so she showed mercy."
He had never forgotten that when Mu Ci threatened him, she said that she could not touch her people, otherwise she could not predict how crazy she would go.
Apart from anything else, Mu Ci was kind to her minions.
"The Queen Mother has a kind face and a kind heart, and she doesn't look like a vicious person." Biqiao couldn't help but express her thoughts.
Mu Ci usually treated others kindly, but this time it was because of protecting his shortcomings that he assassinated the palace servants and stained the imperial dining room with blood.
"She looks kind and kind? I'm afraid you have never seen Mu Ci look so ruthless." Dugu Liancheng said, suddenly showing a strange smile...
