Although Emperor Yuan He let Ji Sihong go later, he pierced a thorn in his heart. The emperor removed the post of the head of the household department of the king, and Ji Sihong is now suspended and grounded, although he has escaped, the anxiety in his heart has not decreased but increased.

Now Bai Yueyu's son in the womb is pinned on by him, and Wang Lao carefully diagnoses the pulse and says that nine times out of ten he is a royal grandson. Because of this, the mother concubine had a good face for him, and said that she would come to the house to have a look in two days, which was even more joyful for Ji Sihong.

However, at this critical time, Bai Yueyu's pregnancy actually had an accident, no wonder Ji Sihong was furious.

"Check it for me, you must find out what the hell is going on for me!"

Bai Yueyu's mournful cry inside was unbearable, but Ji Sihong was only angry, and he didn't have the heart to pity the jade at all. Under Ji Sihong's monstrous anger, the subordinates quickly moved their hands and feet, and according to what Wang Lao said, they presented the things that Aunt Bai had just eaten one by one.

Elder Wang was also terrified, and carefully checked the past. finally found out that something was wrong at the bottom of a sweet soup bowl, and trembled and replied to Ji Sihong: "Lord Qiyu, this, this sweet soup was mixed with oleander powder, which should be the reason for Aunt Bai's miscarriage." ”

Wang Lao couldn't hide the fear on his face, but there was fear in his eyes. This sweet soup does contain a small amount of oleander powder, but it is only a small amount, and it is reasonable not to cause misproduction.

But I don't know that Bai Yueyu has already had a fetal gas, and she has been secretly helping Sun Mingzhe protect her fetus, where can she stop this from making things worse. This is also something that the person who poisoned was unexpected, so he originally planned to trickle the water for a long time without knowing it, but it was suddenly exposed.

It's just that for Wang Lao, if he can't find conclusive evidence that someone deliberately assassinated, it is that he, a doctor, is not skilled in medicine and not well-protected. The charge of killing the emperor and grandson was about to fall on his head, so although Wang Lao couldn't figure out the reason for it for a while, he could only make a fool of himself.

Ji Sihong didn't doubt him, and immediately turned gloomy. If the problem is in other aspects, it's fine, but since the poison is mixed in the diet, it can only be done by the people in the palace.

His face was like frost, and he said coldly: "Go and bring all the people in the kitchen, and this king will personally interrogate them." Also, I will invite all the aunts and sisters one by one, and if there is any shirking, there is no need to show mercy, I want to see who is so bold that he dares to murder the emperor and grandson! ”

The prince personally ordered, who dared not to obey.

After a while, from the cook to the fire girl in the stove, everyone in the kitchen was brought to Ji Sihong. More than a dozen women who were showing off their flowers were also "invited" with their front and back feet, looking at each other with different expressions.

Things are like this, everyone naturally knows what happened, and everyone is silent.

"Who made this bowl of sweet soup?"

A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl walked out with a pale face and trembling, and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, it's a slave." ”

Ji Sihong's eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, and he stared at her coldly and said, "The oleander powder in it is also from you?" ”

Although the little girl didn't know what this oleander powder was, she could also hear that the tone of the prince was wrong. Then she understood, and fell to her knees on the ground, her head shaking like a rattle.

"It's not me, it's not me, the slave doesn't dare. The slave maid just got the order of Sister Caiqing, saying that Aunt Bai has become more and more sweet since she became pregnant, so she asked the slave maid to make sweet soup earlier and send it to Aunt Bai before lunch. ”

A younger girl beside her hurriedly said, "Lord Qi, at that time, the soup was still stewed on the stove, and Sister Zhirong was instructed to deliver pastries to the young lady." Aunt Song's mother next to her said that the young lady was making trouble, and Sister Zhirong was afraid that she would be blamed for going late, so she was busy. ”

The girl named Zhirong nodded and said, "That's true, the young lady made a lot of trouble and refused to eat the cake properly, so the slave and maid delayed for a while." ”

Concubine Song frowned and asked, "So, when Zhirong left, you still stayed in the stove?" ”

The little girl was quite calm, although her body was a little shaky, she still nodded and said: "The slave maid has been watching the fire in the stove, and then when Sister Zhirong came back to serve the sweet soup, but she was busy preparing lunch, so the slave maid sent the sweet soup to Aunt Song." ”

Ji Sihong values Bai Yueyu's son very much, and he also knows that the women in his backyard are not fuel-efficient lamps, so the people who are close to Bai Yueyu are all personally selected by him, and there is absolutely no problem.

Ji Sihong's gaze was like a sharp blade, and he looked at the two of them in a deep voice: "In this way, the person who poisoned is among the two of you." ”

The little girl finally couldn't stand it and knelt down, "Please also ask the prince to know clearly, the slaves and maids are all cheap, and I am grateful to the palace for taking in the great grace, I will never dare to harm the emperor and grandson." ”

Ji Sihong's gaze wandered between the two, and he was a little undecided for a while. As the little girl said, these two people are just girls who help cook in the stove, and their lives are in their own hands, so why should they risk their lives to harm the emperor and grandson.

Zhu Rouyun, who was standing beside Ji Sihong, suddenly said: "These two girls really have no reason to harm Xiao Shizi, but others are not necessarily. Do you say, Aunt Song? ”

Hearing this, Hongling raised her head suddenly, glared at Zhu Rouyun fiercely and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Zhu Rouyun sneered and said, "Who in the mansion doesn't know that the person who doesn't want to see Aunt Bai the most, and the person who doesn't want to see the birth of Xiao Shizi the most is Aunt Song." You were also full of expectations and wanted to have a little son, but you only gave birth to a daughter, and you hurt your body because of this and couldn't get pregnant anymore, so you naturally had resentment in your heart.

It also happened to be Aunt Bai's miscarriage caused by the sweet soup she handled after you called Zhirong, which doesn't look like it's just a coincidence, right? ”

Zhirong heard the meaning of Zhu Rouyun's words, and couldn't help kowtowing to defend herself, and Hongling also knelt down directly, her eyes red with grievances.

"Please also ask the prince to investigate, the concubine herself is also a mother, so she naturally understands this pain, and she will never be so ruthless."

Zhu Rouyun showed a sarcastic look on her face, and before she could speak again, she saw the sharp-toothed little girl quickly look up at her. Zhu Rouyun's heart jumped for no reason, and she saw that the little girl suddenly spoke again: "Slave, slave and maid suddenly remembered something, the slave maid also met Sister Ling'er beside Aunt Zhu on the road, she once opened the food box and saw the sweet soup inside. ”

Before Zhu Rouyun could react, she heard Ji Sihong say in a deep voice: "Go and bring people." ”

Zhu Rouyun had an ominous premonition in her heart for no reason, and in a moment, two little maids came over with a thin girl, and one of them was drenched and holding a small porcelain bottle with dripping water in her hand.

"Lord Wang, when we went, we saw this girl throwing things into the lake, and the little one hurriedly went down and fished it up."

Wang Lao took it, opened it and sniffed it, tasted a drop carefully, and nodded: "This is oleander powder." ”

Ji Sihong's voice was gloomy and cold, and he said word by word: "Zhu Rouyun." ”

King An's wedding is approaching, and King An's mansion is also busy. Although it is inconvenient for the queen to leave the palace from time to time, everything that should be taken care of is taken care of together. At the same time, the Prince's Mansion also took the beginning of the ceremony, and the Qi family was really lively on the day of the appointment.

The prince's side was settled, and the Tong family became more and more worried about his niece who didn't have a mother to worry about, so he asked Lan Yingxin to be summoned into the palace. Who knew that Lan Yuanxin was a faceless person, so she came along.

Although he didn't look down on Lan Yuanxin and her mother, the Tong family didn't want to embarrass a junior, so he just greeted him lukewarmly.

Lan Yuanxin didn't seem to see that she was not treated at all, and the sweet smile on her face made people who didn't know think that she was the queen's nephew.

Tong Shi was really annoyed by her, so he said: "Didn't I hear that Miss Lan was sick two days ago, and she didn't even participate in Princess Pingle's autumn farewell banquet. If you don't feel well, go back and rest. ”

Lan Yuanxin's smile stiffened when she heard this, and she said uncomfortably: "Courtier, thank you for the queen's concern." ”

I don't know who spread the news that she was slapped by Bai Yanran that day, the red marks on her face have not disappeared, everyone is waiting to see her jokes, she naturally has to find an excuse to raise at home.

Lan Yuanxin was originally an extremely strong person, and she didn't want to talk about this kind of thing to make people look down on her, but now everyone knows it. She gritted her teeth, and her eyes were suddenly covered with a layer of mist, and Ai Ai said: "Actually, in fact, the courtier's daughter is not really sick, but that day in Liuxiangju I don't know what to say wrong that angered Miss Bai, and Miss Bai slapped the courtier in a fit of anger." The courtiers hurt their faces and made it inconvenient to see people, so they lied that they were sick, and asked the queen to be compassionate. ”

Tong and Lan Yingxin glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of surprise. Anyone who has seen Bai Yanran doesn't think that she will be the one who hurts people for no reason, but Lan Yuanxin didn't dare to tell such a lie to the Tong family that could be broken with a poke, and she was shocked for a while.

After a while, Tong said lightly: "The grievances and grievances between you juniors are too lazy to take care of this palace, if you are not convinced, just go to her theory, this palace will not help her." ”

Not to mention that Bai Yanran was once kind to Ji Lingyun, and she was about to become a daughter-in-law. But as far as Tong's understanding of Lan Yuanxin is concerned, this person is coquettish and arrogant, and she has always been in love with Ji Lingyun, she can't believe all her words, and she is too lazy to care.

Tong said this, obviously not intending to delve into the matter, Lan Yuanxin gritted her teeth, and had to swallow her anger. It's just that there are a lot of thoughts in my heart, especially when I look at Lan Yingxin, there is obvious resentment in my eyes.

The Tong family called Lan Yingxin into the palace this time to discuss her marriage. Lan Yingxin is already twenty-nine years old, she really can't be considered a little girl, if she has such a family background, she will become a joke in the capital before she is over twenty years old, and she is not in a hurry.

"Yingying, my aunt knows that you have always been indifferent, but you can't ignore the marriage event, do you have a sweetheart?"

Lan Yingxin shook her head and said helplessly: "Queen Mother, the courtiers don't want to get married, they just want to be by their grandfather's side all the time to fulfill their filial piety." ”

Tong patted her hand and said, "You stupid boy, it is the greatest filial piety that you can marry a good man." If you don't have a candidate in your heart, your aunt will make the decision to choose a suitable person for you among the talented sons in the capital, and ask the emperor to give you a marriage? ”

Lan Yuanxin's eyes were red when she watched from the side, but Lan Yingxin still shook her head and refused. Tong said to himself: "Forget about the third son of the Yu family and the son of the prime minister, although there are many other famous sons in Beijing, it is rare to have one who often stands out, and you have to be compatible...... This Bachelor Song is a good look, talent, and temperament, but this family is a little thinner. ”

Lan Yingxin's heart moved, her face remained silent, but her cheeks quietly reddened, and all this fell into Lan Yuanxin's eyes, who were looking at her jealously.
