There was nothing wrong with calling all the people in the kitchen to ask questions. Everything in the kitchen was ordered by Chen Huiniang, but all the procedures were the same as before, and there were not many people in the middle. The three foods that Mrs. Chen is allergic to are not prepared in the kitchen, wormwood is not a plant that should be available at this time, there is no egg on the menu, and the people in the kitchen of Natian Orchid Chrysanthemum are even more unheard of.

In other words, these three things must have been deliberately done by someone, but it is unlikely that Chen Huiniang will poison her mother-in-law, and Lin Ling has no chance to do it, countless pairs of eyes can testify for her.

Lin Ling thought secretly in his heart, suddenly thought of Luo Wenjie's words yesterday, raised his head and said: "Concubine Xiu, yesterday Concubine Chen's personal maid Hongying went to the kitchen, it seems that she specially ordered the kitchen to make egg custard, I don't know if this is a clue?" ”

"That's right, the concubine did order Hongying to go to the kitchen and bring a bowl of egg custard." Chen Huiniang did not deny it, "The concubine's sister loves to eat red-mouthed spinach and egg custard, and yesterday was the concubine's main business, so she dared to prepare two more bowls of dishes for the little sister privately...... Maybe my mother accidentally got infected. ”

Concubine Xiu nodded, looked at the grandmother on the side and said: "You go to this palace to check, see where there are Tianlan chrysanthemums, and also, most of the wormwood in this season is made into sachets or spices, you are so born in the palace to take a look, don't alarm everyone." ”

The grandmother who led the order to go out quickly brought a few people into the hall, one of them was the mother-in-law in charge of the kitchen, she knelt down tremblingly, kowtowed and said: "What are more people and what things in the kitchen, the old slave knows best, the latest addition of manpower in the kitchen is Luo Wenjie, a distant relative of the princess who was inserted a few days ago, he has a hand in dealing with chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, and the old woman also appreciates it, but ...... I never imagined that something like this would happen......"

While talking, this woman secretly glanced at Concubine Xiu who was sitting on the main seat with her eyes, her tone was low, and sometimes she stammered and hesitated, as if she didn't dare to say it but was not afraid of death and told the truth. Concubine Xiu looked at Lin Ling with a blink of an eye, and her red lips opened lightly: "Can there be Luo Wenjie and his people?" ”

Lin Ling nodded: "He is a friend of the concubine, and he has nowhere to go in the capital, so he is temporarily kept in the palace." But he doesn't know anything other than killing chickens and sheep, Concubine Xiu, the concubine arranged for a friend to go into the kitchen to do chores, what does this mean? ”

Hongying, who was standing behind Chen Huiniang on the side, walked out, knelt down in the lobby, lowered her head and said: "Concubine Xiu, I don't know if Luo Wenjie has ever been a slave, but yesterday Miss Ma from Qinhou Mansion went to the kitchen in person, and it is said that she also stayed in the kitchen for half an hour. The princess and Miss Ma have a great friendship, and if Miss Ma is asked to help throw wormwood into which dish, who can know......"

"Shut up!" Lin Ling said angrily, if he wanted to bury her in the pit, he even dragged Xiaoge in!

"Princess, are you weak-hearted?" Chen Huiniang said lukewarmly, the cold light in her eyes made Lin Ling feel a little cold.

Concubine Xiu waved her hand: "Come on, go and invite Miss Ma from Qinhou Mansion over!" ”

"Concubine Xiu, yesterday's incident has nothing to do with Xiaoge!" Lin Ling frowned and said, "She went to the kitchen to get some fashionable melons and fruits, how could she get any wormwood?" Besides, who knows the food that this lady of the Chen Mansion is allergic to? Even if you know, it's one thing, the egg is what Miss Chen Er wants, this wormwood can't tell the origin, and there is another Tianlan chrysanthemum? Although I don't care about the affairs of the house, I also know that someone sent a pot of chrysanthemums to Concubine Chen's room a few days ago, do you want to order someone to move the flowers over to see if it is Natian Lanju! ”
