Chapter 524: Suspicion

After Concubine Lin heard the news, she was faced with Queen Gu's undisguised anger: "Lin, you tell me now." What kind of sweet soup did you make, and why did Mo and Ye not wake up after drinking sweet soup? ”

Concubine Lin knelt on the ground with weak legs, and tears came down: "Queen Mother, the concubine doesn't know what's going on." The sweet soup was indeed made by the concubine herself, but the ingredients were all ready-made, and she had never done anything. The concubine herself tasted a few bites, and there was no problem. Who would have thought that the crown princess and the Ye family would be unconscious after drinking the sweet soup......" said to himself, feeling that such an explanation was a bit far-fetched, and his heart became more and more panicked, and his face was full of shock.

If Mo Shi and Ye Qinglan really have three longs and two shorts, she wouldn't want this little life! Not to mention Queen Gu, even the crown prince and Gu Xinian will definitely not be able to spare her!

Empress Gu glanced at Concubine Lin coldly: "What the hell is going on in this matter, I will definitely find out." From now on, you are not allowed to leave without permission. ”

Concubine Lin cried and nodded, her delicate makeup was stained with tears, and she looked very wolf.

The doctors were very fast, and they arrived a few moments later. At first, I thought that Empress Gu's condition had gone wrong again, and the expressions of several imperial doctors were very solemn. After knowing that it was Mo Shi and Ye Qinglan who were in a coma, he was slightly relieved.

Empress Gu ordered in a deep voice: "Leave two here, and the other two go to the crown princess." At this time, the situation is critical, there is no need to have any scruples, the cause must be detected as soon as possible, and the two of them will be rescued as soon as possible. After a pause, he added coldly: "If you can't save the two of them, you just wait for your heads to move!" ”

As soon as this statement came out. The attitude of several imperial doctors immediately changed subtly, and they responded respectfully. Immediately checked the pulse of the two unconscious female dependents.

The movement was so big, it was naturally impossible for Zhang Yue and Shen Qiuyu not to know. I also came in a hurry.

Zhang Yue looked at Ye Qinglan, who was lying unconscious on the bed, and his heart sank suddenly. Empress Gu sat on the side with a calm face, Concubine Lin touched her tears on the side, and the atmosphere in the room was very tense.

Shen Qiuyu glanced at Ye Qinglan, who had her eyes closed, and a happy sneer flashed in her eyes, which immediately disappeared from the bottom of her eyes. With a concerned face, he came to Queen Gu's side: "It was fine before, why did this blink of an eye become like this?" ”

Empress Gu was still in the mood to deal with Shen Qiuyu at this time, and responded with a little impatience: "Okay." Let me be quiet and quiet. Lin don't cry anymore, if there is really something wrong with that bowl of mung bean sweet soup, I will only ask you. ”

After several experienced and experienced imperial physicians diagnosed their pulses, they had their own numbers in their hearts, and exchanged a knowing look with each other, and one of the oldest and most skilled imperial physicians Qin was represented: "Empress Qiyu, the crown princess and Mrs. Gu seem to have eaten something that should not be eaten by mistake and were poisoned, so they are unconscious. As for where this poison came from. Further verification is pending. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Lin almost lost her footing. If there's anything you shouldn't eat, isn't it just that damn bowl of sweet mung bean soup? But she didn't do anything at all, who did it to blame her?

A cold glint flashed in Queen Gu's eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Is the poison on the two of them heavy? Can it be cured? ”

Imperial Physician Qin replied very conservatively: "Xia Chen and the others plan to prescribe a prescription for detoxification first, and drink two doses first to see if it works." The most important thing is to find out what kind of poison is ingested, so that you can prescribe the right medicine. ”

Empress Gu glared at Concubine Lin. Seeing that Concubine Lin's crying makeup was spent, she opened her eyes in disgust: "Someone is coming." Go to the kitchen and ask if there is any leftover of the mung bean sweet soup that Concubine Lin made before. ”

The maid sent to the kitchen soon returned. What he held in his hand was the sweet mung bean soup left over from the previous drink: "There is nothing in the kitchen, these are found from the crown princess's house." ”

Several imperial doctors carefully brought the mung bean sweet soup aside, each took a shallow taste, and then discussed it in a whisper. After a while, Imperial Physician Qin replied: "This mung bean sweet soup seems to be mixed with other ingredients. The food itself is fine, but when put together with mung beans, it is counterproductive, so it will produce toxins. As for the specific ingredients, the subordinates have to go to the kitchen to investigate. ”

Empress Gu's face was so gloomy that she couldn't see the original color, so she nodded in agreement.

Concubine Lin's expression was already a little sluggish, and she muttered, "I didn't do anything, who wants to harm me like this." Who the hell ......?"

When Queen Gu saw her like that, she was angry, and her phoenix eyes were threatening: "Lin, since this bowl of mung bean sweet soup was made by you yourself, how could you not know what went wrong?" If you dare to play tricks in front of me, I will never spare you! ”

Concubine Lin knelt down again, but this time she didn't dare to cry anymore, and hurriedly defended herself: "This sweet soup concubine has made it in the house a few times before, and the princess has also eaten it, and every time she praises the good taste, there has never been any problem." Today's weather is hot, and the concubine is idle, so she moved her mind to cook this sweet soup herself. From beginning to end, there were people who fought beside the concubine, and the concubine did not have any chance to do anything at all. Please also ask the queen to know the truth! ”

At this time, if you say anything like you don't have the heart to harm the crown princess and Ye Qinglan, it's all nonsense. If you want to talk about motivation, just think about it. The crown princess has no children under her knees, and the eldest son raised under her name is from Concubine Lin's belly. Mo's had a mistake, and the child naturally had to be raised by his biological mother. At that time, it is also very likely that Concubine Lin will become the most powerful woman in the prince's mansion. As for Ye Qinglan, of course, she was innocently implicated.

Such a reason, no need to be said by others, even Concubine Lin herself can come up with it. It is precisely because of this that I feel more and more speechless, and my back is full of cold sweat.

Shen Qiuyu's eyes flashed slightly, and she suddenly took a step forward, and even said that she was also in love with Concubine Lin: "The crown princess has always been very important to Concubine Lin on weekdays, and her feelings are also very harmonious. The concubine is willing to vouch for Concubine Lin, and she will never do anything in the sweet soup. ”

Although it was not clear why Shen Qiuyu changed her temperament to speak for her, Concubine Lin quickly followed the words: "The concubine said something rebellious and rebellious. If you really want to do something, there are more opportunities on weekdays, how can you deliberately rush to do such a thing in the palace? Isn't that self-defeating? ”

As soon as the two of them said this, Queen Gu finally calmed down a little, and after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Could it be that this matter was secretly ordered by Concubine Zheng Guifei?

Thinking about it along this line of thought, this bowl of sweet soup is from the small kitchen of Fengyi Palace, if it is really a problem in the kitchen, doesn't it mean that Zheng Guifei's hand has reached Fengyi Palace......

Queen Gu's mind was racing, and she ordered without thinking: "Go and call all the people in the kitchen, and let Concubine Lin identify them one by one, as long as they were present at the time, none of them can be missed." ”

The female officer immediately responded and hurriedly retreated.

Several imperial physicians discussed in a low voice together and prescribed a prescription. After the palace maid who was guarding the side took the prescription, she hurriedly ran to the hospital to get the medicine and decoction, and didn't mention it for the time being.

Empress Gu looked at Concubine Lin who was kneeling on the ground again, and said lightly: "Okay, don't kneel either." Later, the people in the kitchen will bring them over, so you can take a good look. Identify all the people who were present at the time, and check them one by one. If something goes wrong with them, you can clear your name. Otherwise......"

This is not the case, it is cold and compassionate. Concubine Lin couldn't help but shudder again.

Shen Qiuyu glanced at Concubine Lin as if she was nothing, the corners of her lips raised slightly, and then she quickly lowered her eyelids, and her face was calm again.

Zhang Yue thought for a moment and said in a low voice: "Auntie, it is better to send a letter out of the palace as soon as possible to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and cousin know about it as soon as possible." "It's a big deal, and the sooner you let them know, the better. so as not to delay for a long time, and there will be a gap in my heart in the future.

Empress Gu nodded without thinking.

The news of Mo Shi and Ye Qinglan's accidental ingestion and poisoning reached the ears of the crown prince and Gu Xinian an hour later.

After the prince learned of this, his face changed suddenly, and he quickly rode to the household office. I just arrived at the official office of the household department, but I saw that the office of the household servant was gone. But the little eunuch who went to deliver the letter hadn't had time to leave.

"Where's Gu Shilang!" The prince looked worried.

The little eunuch replied tremblingly: "After the servant reported the letter, Gu Shilang rushed out without even saying a word. The slave thought that Gu Shilang should have entered the palace. After a pause, he cautiously added: "The slave looks, Gu Shilang's face is really ugly and ......."

Gu Xinian has always been known for facing Mount Tai without changing his face. Although he is only twenty-three years old, the city government is deeply not lost to those who have been in the officialdom for decades, let alone a public gaffe, even if it is a mask of indifference and politeness, it is rarely shaken. Even on the day he married Shen Qiuyu, Gu Xinian was only pale and lost his soul for a moment, then straightened his waist and survived that day......

But this kind of Gu Xinian, after hearing that Ye Qinglan had an accident, he couldn't even take care of his basic demeanor. It can be seen that Ye Qinglan has the status in his heart. If Ye Qinglan really has three long and two short, I really don't know how Gu Xinian will react. When this matter is investigated, Concubine Lin will always not be able to escape responsibility. How could Gu Xinian not be angry?

The worry in the prince's heart suddenly increased to another layer, and without saying a word, he got on the horse and hurried to the palace. (To be continued......)
