Chapter 538: Clues
Yin Heng hurriedly helped Xiao Hong sit down against the head of the bed, then returned to the desk and took a pen to write, and after writing, he came to Xiao Hong with the piece of paper and said respectfully: "Yichen's limited experience, there should be three or four of these kinds of medicines in that medicine powder." ”
Xiao Hong took the piece of paper and looked at it, frowned, and said, "But my daily diet has been strictly tested, and there is no way for others to do anything in their diet." ”
Yin Heng said: "The problem is here - this kind of medicinal powder can't be tested with a silver needle." Moreover, after eating something containing this powder, it does not have an attack immediately, but it occurs slowly after three or four days or even five or six days. ”
Xiao Hong looked at him and asked, "So, do you suspect that someone put this medicinal powder in my diet?"
Yin Heng nodded.
Xiao Hong's face became more serious than ever.
Yin Heng then proposed: "For the sake of accuracy, Wechen has the courage to ask Your Majesty to allow Wechen to extract a small part of His Majesty's meal before His Majesty's meal tonight for testing. If these ingredients are detected, it means that someone is indeed doing something in secret, if there are no these ingredients, Weichen will continue to look for the reason. ”
Xiao Hong thought his suggestion was good, so he agreed.
So that night, when it was time for dinner, Xiao Hong asked Yin Heng to stay by his side.
Yin Heng ordered the number after all the dishes were served.
There are 30 types of dishes, soups, and rice.
Yin Heng asked Father-in-law Zhang to go to the kitchen and bring thirty small plates of the kind with sauce.
Gonggong Zhang looked at Xiao Hong in confusion. Xiao Hong nodded and said, "Pharmacist Yin asks you to get it, just go and get it." ”
"Yes. Father-in-law Zhang hurriedly walked away.
At this time, in addition to Yin Heng, there were three palace maids and two people in the imperial dining room in the house.
These three palace maids are all Xiao Hong's personal palace maids. One of the two people in the imperial dining room was responsible for serving Xiao Hong's soup and rice, and the other was responsible for introducing the name, method and function of the dish, both of whom were also women.
When she heard that Yin Heng asked Gonggong Zhang to go to the imperial dining room to get thirty small plates, the palace maid's face changed slightly, and then she was a little distracted.
Xiao Hong looked at the expressions of everyone on the scene quietly, and a smile of unknown meaning slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Grandpa Zhang soon came in with thirty small plates.
Yin Heng placed it on the table and personally pulled out a little bit of each food and put it on a small plate. In a few moments, thirty small plates were filled with food.
The palace maid who introduced the dish was trembling with nervousness, but she didn't dare to stop it, so she had to watch nervously while thinking about how to deal with it in her heart.
Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been grounded, and she has previously formed a cooperative relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince, and now she dare not continue to carry it out.
She originally thought that everything would be unnoticed, but she didn't expect it.......
If Yin Heng really finds out that there is a problem in the food, he will definitely not be able to escape the fate of being interrogated, what should she do at that time?
She couldn't find a solution after thinking about it, and she was immediately anxious.
Yin Heng put the thirty small plates filled with food into a food box one by one, then covered the box and retreated with the food basket.
Xiao Hong glanced at the people present, and then said to Gonggong Zhang: "I can't eat these, you can cook two bowls of white porridge for me yourself, and then serve some pickles." ”
Gonggong Zhang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, now is the time for you to nourish your body, I'm afraid it's not good for your body to eat so simply?"
Xiao Hong shook his head impatiently and said, "I said that I have a bad appetite, what are you talking about?"
Father-in-law Zhang had no choice but to hurriedly say: "Yes, this is the slave." ”
After that, he wanted to leave the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Xiao Hong suddenly told him to stop and said, "Wait a minute." ”
Then Xiao Hong looked at the palace maid who introduced the dishes and asked, "You have been panicking, what are you panicking about?"
The palace maid hurriedly knelt down and said, "The slave maid is just a little uncomfortable. ”
Xiao Hong sneered, and asked in a deep voice, "Is it? Fang just came in with a calm smile on his face, why did he suddenly feel uncomfortable?"
The palace maid trembled with fright, put her head on the ground and said, "I just don't know why I'm dizzy." ”
"Really?" Xiao Hong asked coldly, suddenly slammed the table hard, and said sharply, "Raise your head and look at me." ”
The palace maid was almost frightened, but she still put her head on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The slave maid doesn't dare." ”
"I'm just asking you to raise your head and look at me, and I'm not trying to punish you for your sins, why wouldn't you dare?"
Xiao Hong reached over and lifted her chin as he spoke, looked directly at her and asked, "Say, why are you afraid, why don't you dare to look at me?"
The palace maid immediately closed her eyes, trembling and unable to say a word.
Xiao Hong pushed her violently, and she fell to the ground on her back.
"You've never tasted these meals before, even though you've been involved in cooking them yourself, have you? Xiao Hong said suddenly.
The palace maid suddenly screamed and refused.
Xiao Hong looked at her coldly, and said in a deep voice: "If I ask you to eat, you will eat." ”
At the same time, he personally put a little of each of the dishes in front of him in an empty bowl, handed her along with chopsticks, and said, "Try it." ”
The other palace maids didn't know why, so they all looked at the palace maid who fell to the ground nervously, and thought in their hearts that the palace maid was too ignorant of lifting.
The maid looked at the bowl with fear, not knowing what to do.
Xiao Hong moved the bowl closer to her again.
Now, the rim of the bowl was about to touch her mouth.
The palace maid seemed to be still hesitating.
Xiao Hong was not in a hurry, just holding the bowl and waiting.
Suddenly, as if she had figured it out, and as if she had suddenly made a decision, the palace maid took the bowl and chopsticks handed over by the emperor.
But as soon as she took it, the emperor snatched the bowl back, threw it against the wall beside it, and shouted, "Except for her, everyone else will retreat to me." ”
The others went out trembling.
Xiao Hong grabbed the front of the palace maid's clothes, forced her to look at her, and asked, "Who's instigating?" ”
"The slave didn't understand what His Majesty was talking about. The maid replied with a shudder.
"Don't pretend to be confused, answer quickly. ”
"If the slave and maid answer, can Your Majesty be lenient with the slave and maid?" she asked.
The emperor used all his strength to tug at the placket of her clothes tightly, and said, "Do you dare to talk to me about the conditions?"
"The slave didn't dare. ”
"Then be honest and confess to me. ”
The palace maid pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, the slave maid will help Your Majesty sit down first." ”
He wanted to reach out to help the emperor.
The Emperor shook off her hand and struggled back to his seat.
The maid rose from the ground, and suddenly slammed it like an arrow into the large stone pillar on one side.
Seeing this, the Emperor hurriedly got up to stop her, but she was too late, and she had already fallen to the ground, with a large hole in her forehead, and blood gushing out like a spring.
