The concubines at the banquet were happy, and they dispersed for half a day. Not long after Concubine Xian returned to Penglai Palace, Ye Linchen rushed over to congratulate Concubine Xian. Concubine Xian withdrew from the handmaidens before talking to Ye Linchen.

"Mother, you seem to have something on your mind?" Ye Linchen caught a glimpse of Concubine Xian's poor expression, and couldn't help but be a little worried.

"The queen seems to be showing signs of poisoning." Concubine Xian looked around and sighed and said, "Today, the queen set up a banquet in Jingfutai, and I will go to the queen's palace to greet her and thank her." As soon as I entered the inner hall, I felt that there was something different in the Queen's Palace. ”

Hearing this, Ye Linchen's eyes sank, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, "Then do you know what kind of fragrance it is?"

"I don't know yet, but I feel familiar." Concubine Xian waved her hand and looked at Ye Linchen lovingly, and said softly: "Okay, don't talk about this, I'll pay attention to it." Now that your father has a lot of praise for you, you have to take advantage of it. In the future, you and I can see each other more. ”

"The harem is difficult, please take care. Mother, you have a good rest, and the son has retired first. Ye Linchen held Concubine Xian's hand and said with concern.

Concubine Xian pointed to the food box on the small table, and said, "Wait a minute, the mother concubine just made some osmanthus cakes today." Eat some of your own and take some for my aunt to taste, she will love it. ”

"Misty?" Ye Linchen glanced at Concubine Hui suspiciously, and said in surprise: "Mother, who are you talking about?" How did you know she loves this? ”

"I'm talking about Miss Xie. It's not too early, so go back quickly. Concubine Xian smiled and urged Ye Linchen to leave, wanting to send the person out in person.

Ye Linchen suppressed the suspicion in his heart, picked up the two food boxes on the table and bowed to Concubine Xian again, and then slowly retreated. Not long after he walked here, the Emperor drove to Penglai Pavilion. Ye Linchen got into the carriage that had been waiting for a long time in his house, recalling his mother's appearance every time he heard him mention Xie Yaoguang.

Everything that my mother showed seemed to be familiar with Xie Yaoguang, but how could my mother know Xie Yaoguang after living in the deep palace for many years? Could it be that his mother knew someone from the Xie family, and he had also heard Xie Yaoguang say that her third brother had a master who was proficient in medical skills, maybe her mother knew her, the third brother's master. It makes sense to think about it like this, but he still has doubts in his heart..... But apart from this reason, he really couldn't think of any other reason for his mother to take good care of Xie Yaoguang.

However, when Xie Yaoguang heard himself mention his mother, he did not show that he was familiar with his mother. After thinking about it, he really didn't understand why his mother cared so much about Xie Yaoguang, and he actually knew that Xie Yaoguang liked to eat osmanthus crisp.

Just thinking that the carriage had arrived in the palace, Ye Linchen gave up and seemed to take a deep breath and jump out of the carriage. He handed the two food boxes in his hand to the attendant with him, turned around and strode into the lecture hall.

"Huangfu, you are going to visit Miss Xie with me later." Ye Linchen instructed Huang Fuling while dealing with the official documents.

"Yes"

The moon rose to the middle of the sky, and Ye Linchen and Huangfu Ling went to Xie's house together. The subordinates guarding the gate of Xie's house today didn't know the identities of Ye Linchen and the others, how could they dare to let the two enter the mansion rashly. Seeing that the two of them have extraordinary bearings, I am afraid that they are friends of their own young lady, and naturally they dare not slack off. Immediately command the people to go and communicate inward.

After a while, Suzaku walked over quickly, and was a little surprised when he saw Ye Linchen, and after saluting, he welcomed the two into Xie's house.

"Your Highness, please follow the slave maid, there are many organs in the Xie Mansion, and it is not good to take a wrong step." Suzaku smiled and explained to Ye Linchen.

Seeing the two nodding, Suzaku led them through the bamboo purple dill and walked through a few hanging flower doors in the veranda before stopping in front of a small pavilion. Ye Linchen stopped and looked at the environment outside the small pavilion, the small pavilion was facing the water on one side, surrounded by bamboo on the other three sides, the strange stone peaks sounded, and the sound of flying beads splashing jade could be heard.

"Miss, His Royal Highness King Dingwang has come down." Suzaku stood outside the pavilion and reported loudly.

There was a "squeak" and the carved wooden door opened. Xie Yaoguang stood at the door wrapped in a snow-white mink, and couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Ye Linchen. After a while, she slowly walked down the stairs with her dress in her hand.

Xie Yaoguang, who was dressed in moon-white autumn clothes, bowed to King Yingying, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please."

After a few people were seated, a maid came in with tea, and the maid put the teacup away. Xie Yaoguang immediately withdrew from them.

Although he could feel a heat as soon as he entered the room, Xie Yaoguang still curled up in the mink fur, and hugged the hand stove with his tightly wrapped in the fur. When Ye Linchen saw Xie Yaoguang's appearance, his eyes couldn't help but darken.

"Your Highness is visiting late at night, but I have something important to discuss." Xie Yaoguang picked up the teacup and took a shallow peck, with an elegant and calm posture. It is pleasing to the eye.

"It's not a big deal, I entered the palace today to congratulate my mother. The mother told me that the queen seemed to be poisoned. Ye Linchen thought that Xie Yaoguang didn't know anything about the concubine's concubine, and explained: "The concubine has now been crowned a virtuous concubine."

"Then congratulations to Your Highness." Xie Yaoguang replied coldly, as if he had already known about Ming Zhaoyi's promotion.

Xie Yaoguang continued to immerse himself in the queen's words that seemed to be poisoned. The poisoning of the queen is not a trivial matter, His Majesty will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly, if it is really investigated, the Rong family will not be able to get rid of suspicion in the first place. But with her understanding of Rong's, Rong's naturally wouldn't shoot herself in the foot.

But even if you poison the middle palace, who can benefit? Only then did Xie Yaoguang seem to think of something, her eyes lit up, if she thought correctly, this scene of the thief shouting to catch the thief would be very interesting.

"Yaoguang, this is the osmanthus cake made by my mother, you can taste it. Mother's craftsmanship is very good. Ye Linchen opened the food box, and a scent of osmanthus poured into his nose the moment the food box was opened.

Looking away, there was a plate of golden osmanthus cake on the lacquer plate, but it was the size of a baby fist. The cake is wrapped in a layer of chestnut powder, and when you look at it from a distance, it feels sweet and delicious.

Xie Yaoguang was slightly stunned when he heard this, and a trace of sadness and nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

Although it was only for a moment, Ye Linchen still keenly captured the change in Xie Yaoguang's expression at that moment. She picked up a piece of osmanthus cake casually, and after taking a small bite, she seemed to close her eyes, as if she was recalling the taste of osmanthus cake.

"Concubine Hui's craftsmanship is still so ......" As if realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Xie Yaoguang raised her finger and rolled up a piece of green silk with her slender fingers, stroked her lips and smiled: "Niangniang's craftsmanship is good, I like this osmanthus cake very much." Just now, His Highness said that the queen seems to be poisoned?"

Ye Linchen said solemnly: "The queen set up a banquet to celebrate the promotion of the mother concubine, and the mother concubine smelled a strange fragrance in the queen's palace. But my mother can't tell what kind of incense it is."

Xie Yaoguang thought for a moment, and put one hand to his jaw and the other hand to play with the green silk to his lips. As everyone knows, this thoughtful look fell in Ye Linchen's eyes, and he was shocked and inexplicable.
