Zhang Zhijie was really confused, and finally understood why Emperor Zhengde called him in a hurry! Unexpectedly, this matter turned out to be related to his own family, but he didn't know anything about these osmanthus cakes!

These foods are also made by women's families, how could Zhang Zhijie care about these little things! The most important thing is, why is there safflower in your own osmanthus cake? Why was it sent to Liu Ji?

It is impossible to say that his family wants to harm Liu Ji! First of all, his own family is the queen mother's foreign family, the queen mother is finally looking forward to holding her grandson, it is the time of joy, how can her own family harm the queen mother's grandson?

Besides, his family and Liu Ji have no grievances and no conflicts of interest, how can they take a big risk to harm the child in Liu Ji's belly? And on the contrary, he has a very good relationship with Xu Jiaying and Liu Ji.

Countless thoughts flashed in his heart, Zhang Zhijie immediately knelt down, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know what's going on, but the minister dares to guarantee that the minister and the minister's family will not have thoughts that are unfavorable to Liu Niangniang!" ”

Emperor Zhengde stepped forward to help Zhang Zhijie up from the ground, and said in a deep voice: "If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't have called you here!" I called you here because I believe in you! ”

"It's because I believe you that I want to find out, and if it's just a misunderstanding, that's it! What I'm worried about is that someone has bad intentions and can't see Liu Ji give birth to my child! ”

"So, I want you to check it out!"

Zhang Zhijie was very moved when he heard this, Emperor Zhengde really trusted him! Something so big happened, and the spearhead was pointed at Zhang Zhijie himself, but Emperor Zhengde still chose to believe him and asked him to investigate.

There is no doubt that Emperor Zhengde really has absolute trust in him, and if he has the slightest suspicion, he will not let Zhang Zhijie investigate. After all, if Zhang Zhijie did it, he would definitely not find himself out.

"Your Majesty, since this matter has been involved in the minister's mansion, the minister should avoid suspicion, and ask the emperor to choose someone else to investigate this case!" Zhang Zhijie was moved.

Emperor Zhengde shook his head when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be verbose, hurry up and find out the matter clearly!" Come in first. ”

Emperor Zhengde didn't give Zhang Zhijie a chance to refuse, took Zhang Zhijie and Ma Yongcheng into the main hall, and went all the way to the inner hall, the inner hall was still very quiet at this time, and everyone was preoccupied.

Seeing Emperor Zhengde and Zhang Zhijie coming, all the faces of the people were very complicated. One of them Yiye and Ziyi's faces were even more uncertain, but Liu Ji became calm, and she also chose to believe in Zhang Zhijie like Emperor Zhengde.

Because she couldn't find a reason why Zhang Zhijie would harm her, Liu Jifu said: "Your Majesty, Admiral Zhang!" ”

Zhang Zhijie said in a deep voice: "I also just learned about this, to be honest, I don't have a clue now, and I ask Liu Niangniang to tell me in detail, what is going on?" ”

Liu Ji glanced at Emperor Zhengde after listening, and when she saw Emperor Zhengde nodding, she pursed her lips and said: "Then when I went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother, I ate two pieces of osmanthus cake from the Queen Mother, and praised this osmanthus cake for being delicious!" ”

"The Queen Mother said that this was made by Shou Ning Hou, and said that since I like to eat it, I will let Shou Ning Hou Mansion send some。。。。。。"

Zhang Zhijie didn't know about this, and Mrs. and Xu Jiaying wouldn't tell him everything about such a trivial matter, but listening to Liu Ji say this, it was obviously true.

Zhang Zhijie looked at the osmanthus cake on the table and asked, "Is this the osmanthus cake sent by the house?" ”

Liu Ji nodded and said, "Yes, maybe there is some misunderstanding here!" Maybe the Queen Mother remembered wrongly, it was not the osmanthus cake of the Hou Mansion at all, and the osmanthus cake of the Hou Mansion may have always had safflower! It's just that Mrs. and Sister Xu don't know either. ”

Zhang Zhijie shook his head and said: "Impossible, Jiaying also ate osmanthus cake when she was pregnant, if there is really safflower, how can she be fine?" ”

Liu Ji thought about it and said, "Maybe it's because when I was making osmanthus cake, I put it wrong and brought it in a little!" ”

Zhang Zhijie shook his head and said: "It's also unlikely, safflower is medicine, who will put medicine in the place where food is made?" ”

Zhang Zhijie walked to the place of the osmanthus cake and observed, it did look exactly the same as the osmanthus cake in the house. Zhang Zhijie picked it up and took a bite and tasted it, and couldn't help but stare at it, this is definitely not the osmanthus cake in the house.

After eating the osmanthus cake for so many years, Zhang Zhijie tasted it all at once, this is definitely not the osmanthus cake in his house, even if it is added with safflower, it should not be like this!

After Zhang Zhijie spit it out, he said with a solemn face: "Your Majesty, this plan is definitely not the osmanthus cake of the Hou Mansion!" But the look is the same! ”

Emperor Zhengde said with a solemn face when he heard this: "Sure enough! Someone has bad intentions behind it! What a daring! ”

At this moment, Zhang Yong also came in a hurry, and when he came in, he found that the atmosphere in the hall was solemn and breathless, so he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the old slave is here, what's wrong?" ”

Emperor Zhengde nodded and said, "Someone wants to be unfavorable to Liu Ji and wants to assassinate the child in her belly." Since you're here, okay, you can assist Zhijie in investigating this case, and be sure to find out! ”

Zhang Zhijie and Zhang Yong bowed down to listen to the order, Zhang Zhijie was also a little angry in his heart at this time, someone actually hit him with the idea, what a big dog! If it weren't for Emperor Zhengde's trust in him so much, this would really make him a little passive.

So Zhang Zhijie also wanted to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, since Emperor Zhengde gave him the task of investigating the case, then he would not shirk.

Zhang Zhijie turned around and said in a deep voice: "Then start to check from the person who handled it, who sent Liu Niangniang's osmanthus cake?" ”

Liu Ji thought for a while and said, "It's Xiao Xizi!" ”

Emperor Zhengde said in a deep voice: "What about Xiao Xizi? Go find Kiko Ko! ”

Immediately, a little eunuch went to look for him, and it didn't take long for a little eunuch with clear eyebrows to come in, and when he saw this scene, he immediately knelt on the ground with his knees weak.

Zhang Zhijie asked in a deep voice: "You sent this osmanthus cake?" ”

Xiao Xizi trembled and said, "Yes, it was sent by the slave!" ”

Zhang Zhijie said in a deep voice: "Do you know? This osmanthus cake is poisonous! ”

When Xiao Xizi heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, her body was already staggering with fright, and she said in horror: "Slave no, no, I don't know!" Slave, slave maid took it from Xiao Linzi's hand, saying that it was sent to Liu Niangniang by the Shouning Hou Mansion! ”

Speaking of Shouning Houfu, Xiao Xizi couldn't help but glance up at Zhang Zhijie, and thought of something terrible in his heart, and his body trembled even more.
